FRIDAY, JUNE 15,1945 GOVERNOR LAUSCHE AND HIS VETO The veto of the Daniels-Cramer bill to provide additiona finances for the. schools of the state has numerous points tha ; the public may or may not understand. There those who woul( favor the veto of any measure that provides for spending more the public may not understand. There are those who would have a close relationship with the schools and want them to be financed, not lavishly but sufficient to pay salaries in keeping with the cost of an education made necessary by the legislature and the department of education. Then we have another edu national service that places a rating on schools and colleges we must consider. This rating covers building, equipment and the standing of teachers or at least their training and experience. We are not in position to say the legislature is right any more than the Governor is'right but there is a positidn between the two that all most accept. We are all well aware of the fact that thousands of good teachers have left the school room to take positionst in war plants, industry and the governmen took many hundred more teachers into the armed service, no ; always by choice but by force. This left a big hole in the poo Many of the teachers of today, or most o f them, were in class rooms long before the war. They are still there. They had accepted, teaching as their profession and1they have re mained true to it. There may have been additional' increase o:! salary but nothing like what would compensate for the increas­ ed cost of living or what was received by the teachers that de­ serted the school room for higher pay. If the Daniels-Cramer bill will recompense such teachers, and provide attractive sal ariesto the young teachers now in training or those who wil graduate and intend to follow teaching, then the legislature has taken the proper course in overriding Governor Lausche's veto The Governor points out the bill would lead to new taxes and continued extravagance. To this we hardly think the mem bers of the school boards can go far wrong because they are al elected by the citizens as taxpayers. With federal tax what must be following the war to pay for the extravagance going on ih the national administration, we predict the public will be more tax conscious as the years approach than they have been It certainly is worthy of note to point-out that certain prop­ ositions have, been made by Senator Wagner, and also by Pres­ ident Truman, that there must be more money spend on unem­ ployment insurance. Both have suggested something like $2.5 a week for 24 weeks. To contrast such payments for doing nothing for that period against a $90 a month,•minimum, paid to unexperienced teachers, is-conclusive proof that our school teachers are entitled to some increase in salaries. More over how many persons will be looking fjpr a job as long as they are drawing $100 a month—.doing nothing? Every citizen should have enough interest in our schools to have competant teachers for the training of our youth. Payment of niggarly salaries un­ der our high standard of living will hot attract teachers as it has not done the past three war years. The governor has a per­ fect right to point out the financial burden ahead but if he could aid in lifting the “must things” school boards , re com­ pelled by law to do, then we believe the state would have just as well managed schools without more new taxes. ■We do not say the things required are not proper but it is the “must things” that requires finance to carry out. ONE TIME FIRST FAMILY STILL FIRST Some people live on publicitysome have it thrust on them and some are not at home without being in the limelight of pub­ licity. Not all families get publicity because they do not do the unusual things to attract attention. This f amily can have a page in history much different than any other family. There are a few-that have occupied high places in the nation and yet they were seldom in the news only as servants of the people. The family we have in mind lived for a dozen years at the. seat of government. One of the first acts to attract public at­ tention was a public liquor party for the young folks, the first time society was ever welcomed at the seat of government in such fashion.. Later a movement was started to make the home the meeting place for those who had adopted the Broadway “ wiggle dance” . This created a social sensation. Then we might mention-the.incident of the service men be­ ing bumped off a plane for the shipment of fine dogs. But we must not overlook that famous”“ dog wedding for Fala” That was unusual but yet it kept the family name before the public! The record‘of div<forces in the family was unusual but it ser­ ved its purpose just the same. Presidential army promotions made good reading and they placed more income in. the family group. Public papers belonging to the government were sold as a boy would popcorn at a street corner. That brought both income and publicity. One might go on indefinitely and have a “ My Day” record that would continue for days touching both public and private acts staged to keep before the public. And recent events made public would indicate there is yet much to come that has never been included in any writer’s “ My Day” , or what each column­ ist might term his daily grist to get a copyright. We have heard of the shell game racket in years past-at county fairs but we never heard of one that had a $200,000 stake, It seems even our greatest! business giants have contributed to the publicity­ seeking family. While this country passed through an era of “ privy” con struction at public expense, it has remained for Fulton Lewis to enlighten us on how the New Deal had some 300 privies or to speak in more polite terms, “ Chic Sales” houses, built on for­ eign soil by the New Deal. Fulton Lewis has been digging into public expenditures around the world as to what the New Dea road building program was, and he finds the government paid rentals on the same road machinery more than one time for many months to net contractors handsome profits. The latest for the book is that the government paid $1,500.00 each for 300 ordinary privies in a small nation south of us. New Dea* newspapers might follow a congressional investigation to begin shortly and give their readers an insight of the brand of ad­ ministration they supported under the guise of a “ war neces­ sity.’* Such exposure at this date is proof that one can often die before he knows the fruits of his efforts. President Truman’s advocacy o f the 425 weekly unemployment plan for a period of 25 weeks is going to put his administration on the block fo r public sentiment, The President approves a similar plan offered in the Senate by Senator Wagner, a New Deal radical, that bows at the foot o f Communism. Sen. Wagner wants around 25 million more American citizens brought in under the social security plan. He ad- vacated every thing “from the cradle to the grave” , even going a bit be­ yond what Father Townsend advo­ cated in his old age pension plan. The Senator from New York wants all farm workers to be placed under the plan and all domestic help from the kitchen cook to the maid included. He wants minimun wages for all help and, the employer, farmer or house­ wife compelled to take four percent of the-paycheck to this class of labor and then the farmer or housewife, add another four percent, each week, and remit all deductions and payments to the internal revenue department each quarter. But that is not all. Senator Wagrter wants all “ self help" put un­ der the social security plan, It would work this way. Jim Smith operates a barbershop or a doctor's office or a tinshop. . There would be a special scale set up for each class of little independent business or professional men. Sen. Wagner would compel each to apply into the social security fund four percent of the amount fixed by -he scale paid each three months to the government. As a farmer, Jake Jones runs a small farm of 50 acres or Howard Hopkins operates a farm of 500 acres. Each would be compel- old. to pay into the fund. This is what is meant by “self help". If Mrs. Jones does the milking or works in the field she would be taking the place of one that should be hired, so she must pay a four percent of a sum to bo fixed by the government under the "seif, help”. This was part of the FDR and Wallace 60 million jobs. How do you farmers and business men that have carried the New Deal banner like the plan as'outlined by Sen. Wagner? President Truman has not said that he favors the Wagner plan in toto, but he has approved the ?25 weekly for 24 weeks with without committing himself on the other provisions. The bill if passed would take all that the New Yorker has put in it. How many persons out o f work would be-looking for a job if the government would pay them ?25 weekly for 25 weeks? been indicted for accepting a bribe in connection with the operation o f a gambling house near the Greene coun­ ty line but in Clark county. Judge Golden Davis has drafted Attorneys Homer Corry and Stewart L, Tatum to aid a special prosecutor named by the court. Attorney Cole, who has been representing Nevis has with­ draw from the case., Nevis has added former Lieutenant Governor Herbert to take Cole’s place Two Dayton ci­ tizens indicted in connection with the gambling case each have plead guilty and fined a total of $25,000 on five different cases, or a total of $50,000, the largest f ines ever assessed in the history of such cases in Ohio. Both have paid their fines. Judge Davis is or was a Democrat and has been cleaning house. The CIO had just a- bout taken over the Democratic party in Clark county but recent events have sent most of the CIO boys to the tall and uncut. Until recently the CIO-New Dealers were going to run a municipal ticket and take over the city but $25,000 fines evidently have had a bearing on the leaders and the city election has been passed up. The old Line Clark county Democrat who has seen his party debauched by the CIO-New Dealers now sits back and applauds Judge Davis, The Re­ publicans have had no part in the mixup, being content to let Judge Davis have his way. The story we get from Democratic sources is that there is nothing deader in Clark coun­ ty that the CIO Netf Dealers. A di­ vision has broken out in the CIO ranks. Buying A Home? WE HAVE MONEY TO LOAN FOR BUYING HOMES, FARMS AND REFINANCING m im ttiiiH iM iitH m tm iiuiifiiiM iifm f COME IN AND TELL US YOUR NEEDS ALL ACCOUNTS INSURED UP TO $5,000 Peoples Building & Savings Company 11 GraamSL Xania, Ohio Phono II Early last winter this column call­ ed attention to a newspaper adver­ tisement in a New York paper where one o f the largest department stores offered one or more Plymouth Rock chickens at $5 a head “ for breed pur­ poses;" In as \much as New York City does -not permit the raising o f chickens within the city for health reasons as well as there are no back yards, the department store had a big run on this plan of selling poultry. Those were the Jays when it was a problem to find a hen for the Sunday dinner in the big town. OPA was fix­ ing price ceilings for -dealers. The black market was. being developed. Instead o f buying chickens by ‘ the pound they were, being sold by the head. Poultry became scarcer due to dealers being unable to get a profit. Within the past six months the plan of -selling by the head has grown and covered the nation. Community sales were organized and blackmarket op­ erators set up for business outside of the cities to escape health regula­ tions. . The public had more -money than chickens. Like the human sponge in quest for bootleg liquor he would pay any kind of a price for chickens. In recent weeks city people so hungry for meat of some sort would offer farmers in many cases three to five dollars for a three pound fry or even an old hen And hundreds o f farm­ ers took advantage o f the old rule of “ regular by supply and demand" and sold to all comers. No ceilings were violated. No OPA< unable to stop per head sales orders farmers to make the buyer sign a statement that the chicken is for breeding purposes and not for table use. For example one, who gives his name as “James Alex­ ander Smith, attorney, 3810 East High st., Springfield, how is the far­ mer to know whether the name is bonified or just how many" residences there are on High street? If the city folks are desirous o f entering the “ poultry business", the OPA should give them some safe guard as to the geneology o f "Biddy” as to her laying record. Whether she has been bangs tested ? To get into the game would not the city newcomer in poultry want to know something about the lineage o f the head o f the flock? Tho “ eock- of-the-walk might be as impotent as was the famous jackass certain Ten­ nessee Domocrats unloaded on’Henry Wallace when he was Secrtary of Agriculture and wanted to start a ierd o f jacks and jennys he wanted to roam over the thousands o f acres o f Tennessee Valley Authority. The city poultry buyer should hav&4some protection from the GPA or some far­ mer might unload on him as did the Tennessee dealers that received $8,- 000 for ait impotent jack. From reports we get there is much interest in the coming trial o f Pros­ ecutor Nevis, Clark county, who ,h*a Some friend sends us iponthly “ The Teamster”, national organ of the union.. We also get the,.Ohio issue. We read both with interest as both devote much space to politics. Dan Tobin, head of .the unioji„usually has one or more interesting articles. We cannot agree with him on many o f his ideas but we are glad to get his background. Some of these days Dan will be talking to every farmer in the U. S., if he lives long enough. His union proposed/to organize farm la­ bor even if horses are selling at $25 a-head, and few buyers, A teamster nowadays is the driver o f a milk or bread truck or a freight truck, The proposal to organize all farm labor that uses electric milking machines will be interesting to more than farm­ ers. Refusal of a union truck driver to pick up a can of milk or cream at a farm gate where the farmer does not use union labor, might give the present day farmer much concern. John L. Lewis has proposed the same kind of an organization for his union. Both John L and Dan are big men in the labor world. Both were big men in the eyes o f the, late FDR. It was he who attended a teamster blowout and referred to the head o f the union as his “ Best friend, dear Dan.” it was at the same gathering where two members of the union assaulted two members of the navy in uniform on the same floor of the popular hotel where the pow-wow was held. John L. became so big there was no one in the New Deal that could stop him and he is yet just as big—labor’s idol. Walter Winchell in his . Sunday night broadcast came near unloading a heavy load at the New Deal admin­ istration door, or the State Depart­ ment. Walter says somebody in this country promised Argentine 500,000 tons o f oil or gasoline and she is now insisting the promise be made good. Imagine such a condition,' when the OPA is telling you daily about-the shortage of gasoline for your aiito. Walter says Brazil is itching under the way America,- the New Deal, has buckled to Argentina. Conditions are such tho administration has sent a representative to Brazil to try and get things hushed up. Russia smarts a- bout Argentine being a Nazi follow­ er and yet seated at San Frahcisco. What a lot o f trouble a dead man’s promises can cause. What would be the answer to such exposure if he had lived to face it? The biggest prob­ lem the San Francisco conference has had is how to side-step nil this under cover dealing without exposing or mentioning the name o f the dead man. Communist Harry Hopkins was dispatched to Moscow to sweeten Joe Stalin, who had been promised a lot of things also, There has been much speculation ns to how the President came to send Hopkins when there were so many so-called diplomats in the Democratic pnrty. Dan Tobin’s “ Teamster" has a lot o f “ ifs” as to the Truman adminis- 7 The comforting beauty of a reverently con- ducted service helps to bring tranquility to troubled mifids.^ 7 i&fciw Practical counsel on fu­ neral matters is ah impor­ tantpart of out service to thejMng. --------- M c M i l l a n IttMpI tration. As long as the New Deal pol­ icy is followed Dan extends a hand to Pres. Truman. When he breaks over there is a holding back and no patting on the back. Of course the continu­ ance of Republicans at the head o f the army and navy departments does not go well. There is a mark o f suspicion about where the Morgan banker as' Secretary o f State, Dan points out a lot o f weakness with the Lausche ad' ministration. He questions whether the governor is even a Democrat from some o f his official acts and many of his appointments, ,He refers to the big vote Cleveland gave the governor and now refers to the fact that the ward Lausche formerly headed has since organized against him.
