But “ rich and pool*’ ' are relative terms. What does the Senator mean? Is he thinking on terms of specific incomes? Or by overty does he mean the hopeless, grinding sort? Ar< those with $2,500 a year above the poverty level? Or woulc 31,500 or $1,000 a year, put them out of that class called poor? Is a man rich with $10,000 a year? Or must he have $50,000 or $100,000? Senator Wagner does not draw any lines. To talk about abolishing poverty is easy enough. But act- tually to abolish it is an undertaking of extreme difficulty something never accomplished. Does the senator mean tha; this can be accomplished by some redistribution-of-wealth for­ mula? Is it something which can be done by government? Or is it to be brought about by education? Lycurgus of Sparta hav­ ing determined to abolish poverty by the redistribution of al wealth, found that there was not enough wealth, no matter hoy distributed, to make everybody”rich, so he determined to make everybody poor. He carried out his design. But no such sys­ tem would be feasible except under an absolute monarchy. Moreover, such an equal distribution of wealth would not in_ sure against a return of inequality. For inequality is not due always to bad laws, or to social abuses, or to economic malad­ justments, but inheres in men. There are millions in America who are poor because they are incompetent, unambitious, un enterprising, indisposed to work, but rather disposed to do as little as possibly and always ready to accept dependence. Where poverty is due to bad government, to monopoly, to predatory practices on the part of the powerful, to the denial of rights and privileges and of opportunities which belong to all men, discontents, often revolutions, are bred. Where the hire of the laborer is withheld, where employers are brutally indifferent and unappreciative, where men are ground down by those who own and manage the tools of production, poverty gnaws like a canker. In any such country the masses sooner or later will revolt. ' But in the United States, as nowhere m the world, while poverty still exists, largely due to laziness and incompetence wealth has been more fairly distributed, and the masses of men have enjoyed more material comforts than anywhere else on a comparable scale. The cycle o f progress is not closed. The future may be far better than the past. . Everything should be done to give every deserving human being all that he deserves, to every man who will strive that degree of comfort which he is able to —Greene County Journal. earn. Greene county landed in second place in the sale o f “ E " bonds in the south-west section o f the state. This included the county's share o f “ E” bonds that many larger and more populous counties did not take. When counties like Cuyahoga, Montgomery and a long list o f Democratic counties failed to subscribe their quota, old Greene always pictured in New Deal circles as “ isolationist" performs her part o f giving the government sup­ port, the kind that backs the boys on all war fronts. A little more patriot­ ism in some o f the Democratic coun­ ties and less New Dealism and CIO doctrine, and probably ’ the public Would give more liberal support to war bond drives. C o ffe e F lavo r Good In C a k e Both batter and frosting are made with coffee In new cake recipe. - ■ Coffee, which continues to be­ come more popular as America’s favorite hot or iced drink at all hours of the day, Is one o f . the finest flavorings .for desserts. Here is a new, tested layer cake rdcipe in which coffee is the only liquid used. To make the right amount of proper strength brew for Coffee Layer Cake, use 6 table­ spoons of coffee and l l i cups of water. Brew in a small-size coffee maker, if you have one. Or, boil the water and pour oyer the coffee which has been placed In a wanned saucepan. Stir, let stand for three minutes and strain. This method will give the required amount of strong coffee for both -cake and frosting. In either case, for full-bodied coffee flavor, use vacuum-packed coffee from a glass jar In which freshness is held in­ tact under the resealable lid. Coffaa Layer Cake: (Makes two S-lnch layers) 2 c. cake flour, 2Vi t baking "powder, Vi t salt, y3 c. shortening, 1 c. sugar, 3 eggB, Vi t. vanilla, Vi c. cold strong coffee. Sift flour. Measure and sift to­ gether with baking powder and salt. Cream shortening: Add sugar gradually, creaming after each addi­ tion. Add well-beaten eggs. Add va­ nilla and beat thoroughly. Add dry Ingredients alternately with the cof­ fee to the creamed mixture, stirring just enough to blend thoroughly. Pour Into well-greased pans and bake in moderate oven (375°F.) 20 to 25 minutes, Boiled Coffee Frosting: Combine 1 y3 c. sugar, Vi c. strong coffee and V4 c. bottled light syrup in sauce­ pan. Bring slowly to boil, stirring until sugar Is dissolved. Continue boiling without stirring to firm ball stage (250*F.). Remove from heat. Pour over 2 stiffly beaten egg whites, heating constantly until frosting stands in peaks. Add V4 L salt and frost cake.

Xenia, O, Peal Democratic psrtiots that get of­ fice Btripes for patriotic duty in be­ half o f their country and eat three warn meals daily on cushion chairs in with teir feet under a table in an air conditioned dining room. Then we have the 85,000 so-called slackers on government pay in government de­ partments, ail o f draft age. And a local boys comes home after months without even a cot to sleep on and go­ ing days without a warm meal to meatless, sugarless cupboard at home. Nor did he have that sugar and me that we must save for the boys at the front. You were told that but Europeans were eating most o f that, even the Italian and German prison­ ers. A Dayton business man “ extended congratulations to Greene county thru the writer on our success in the sale of. all quotas o f the Seventh war bond drive. He wanter to know how it was done when his county did not meet all of its quota. We pointed out we .had one o f the best organizers in the state in the person of Chairman Frank L. Juhnson. Moreover few if any counties carried on a more exten­ sive advertising campaign which was supported from private resources in­ terested in the cause; Each newspa­ per in the county gave liberal sup­ port .and the public was educated in the necessity of meeting a challenge in support of the Greene county boys at the'front. Our friend was some­ what stunned at what old Greene had done. Commenting further, “ You know, such a plan could not be work­ ed in Dayton. Our newspapers spend So much time defending the New Deal, nodding “ yes” to everything England and Russia ask for, that they are called in certain circles, the “ New Deal Triplets.” Clinton P. Anderson Secretary of Agriculture, has thrown the red flag in the face of the distillers. He is­ sued a warning that part of the mil­ lions of bushels o f corn allotted for liquor before he took office should be turned back into the market for live­ stock and poultry feed. If not the industry will add to the food shortage this fall for man and beast. Then, Anderson warns, the industry fac^s" ...ething from the people that will l—t longer than the Volstead act. If FDR were living he would exclaim “ What. Sacriledge!” Poultrymen in the east are crying for more feed. It is the same story in Greene county. No one ven has pity for the weak­ ling Wickard o f Indiana. About the next excuse or report to come out of Washington will be ‘that the Good Lord” failed to send us rain and for tljat reason we have no su­ gar, meat and- potatoes.” . There are ( more people scattered over the United States that probably, can get a pray- ■er answered thus those in Washington that have dated to take up the Lord’s side of the cause, for food or even for peace. HERALDWANTANDSALEADS PAY The old fashioned county fair must give way to the New Deal rush to keep the been tracks going with gaso­ line- and rubber tires. Milk delivery was- cut to aid in the one big cause in the New Deal eye—more beer. Sugar was taken from the kiddies' that we could keep making beer, wine and other liquors while jelly and jams for the little kid brothers and sisters of the boys in service must do without. A county fair without a horse race is about like the New Deal being welcomed at $' church gathering or In the W. C. T. U. circle. More sober men in government at Washington could lead to more sober thought in behalf of Americans and a little less “ yes” nodding to Europeans that if put to work and kept at work would not have time to be fighting as they have done for more than a hundred years. And yet, no “ horse racing*’ like no sugar in the home pantry has a meaning all o f its own. Republi­ cans take heart. The public knows who ride the air-conditioned Pulimans with super service. It is not many of the parents of the G. I. Joes or the G. I. Jims. It has been the war contrac­ tors and hundreds o f thousands of New Dealers on government pay that before the war could not even thumb a ride on a hand-car. No one objects to the-soldiers having the best on the train. Not so long ago we rode from Springfield to Columbus on a chair car and was told by the conductor who counted his fares in front of us that he had 14 government' dead­ heads on that trip between Cincinnati and (Thlumbus and all riding at the expense of the income tax payees. There is more than one reason why the soldiers have been crowded into box cars. It has been no fault of Mr. and Mrs. American Citizen from Main street. While the nation was trying to sell war bonds some thousands of rubber strikers in Akron, C. I. O. New Deal patriots, were selling or cashing their “ E” bonds at the rate of $43,000 a day. That should be good .news and interesting to the non bond-buyers in the Democratic New Deal counties. A war time strike can draw more ex­ cuses, waste of time from the New Deal War LaBor Board than anything we know o f Let a jatriotic bond buy­ ing industrialist overstep his mark, ose fraction o f an inch and he is pic­ tured by the OWI as an enemy o f the nation. Ladino Clover Aids Farm Production Returns Far -Exceed Costs o f Handling N ° L so many years ago, Ladino clover was almost unknown ex­ cept in the irrigated valleys of the western states. Believed to have come originally from Lodi, Italy, the seed was first imported into the United States about 1900. Ladino clover is particularly valu­ able for grazing, according to U, S. agronomists, due to its high'carry­ ing capacity and large protein-min­ eral nutritive content, but it is also adaptable for hay and silage and is an excellent cover crop. These characteristics make it especially Suitable for the limited farming areas of states such as Vermont and New Hampshire, enabling fanners to grow most of the protein needed for their livestock, dairy and poul- try. The plant is a rapid - growing perennial legume, apreading by creeping fleshy stemu that root at the. nodes. The leaves, stems .and flower heads will grow from two to four times as large as those of com­ mon white clover, and about six times as large as those of the Eng­ lish wild white clover. The average life of a good Ladino clover and- grass .planting is from four to seven years, management and fertiliza- We give a weekly report on the latest happening in the Eliott finan­ cial circles. Elliott has proven he has more than “ sox” appeal. When one i can hit closefisted millionaires for $200,000 worth of shop-worn paper in . the form o f .-worthless' stocks, we . pin the ribbon on him. Of course he had "Papa’s” White House blessing— for exchange in what?. Then a second week following the first exposure we get a new story on a new victim who put up in the thousands and took back as the boys say “ in pennies”. Now •another victim is revealed and, he at once informed the public he got stock but that he was not a politician and was not after ,a war or government contract, but he 'had a handful o f the Roosdvlet specie that could not be un­ loaded even on Joe Stalin, Who said this victim Was after war contracts ? So why the denial today ! We know he did not have tho Cola contract for the westerm war and navy camps that brought in a penny profit each day for the 500,000 bottles. Next? COngresg came near getting into a jam this week. In other words what was proposed was counter to a "sec­ ret” agreement Roosevelt made with Joe Stalin. Communist Harry Hop­ kins, who was hailed as the great deliverer following his trip to Moscow for President Truman, had to rash to the congressional halls that Congress could not do what was proposed as FDR had made a secret agreement otherwise, Hather than offend “ Lit­ tle Joe’” the New Dealers backtracked as if headquarters had word from the CIO over a strike situation. Sold down the river explains the situation. England and Russia come before wo Americans in New Deal circles. That Is the reason why men and women track from door to door hunting meat and sugar, even with plenty o f New Deal Russian points. A local boy in this township returns from over sea duty on furlough. He had a sugar stamp in a certain local grocery. We watched the expression on his face. He asked for loin steak and was told there had been none for more thaft a week but we have plenty o f baloony. Pork chops? No! Man it has been four weeks since wo have had pork chops. The man in uniform walked out into another store. He came away empty handed. Then the third Store and the same story. We could read his feelings even though he offered no comment. He had been furloughed home to Pa and Ma only to find a “Mother Hubbard Cup­ board’, The next day We had con­ versation with this lad that wore all- enraed stripes facing an enemy on the battle front. Then thirds of the New We recommend that, some' o f our New Deal daily newspaper friends get in touch with Elliott and interest hint in the “ Silver Dollar”, Clark county financial institution. We are told it has a finely equipped “ crying” room for all that that lost their earn­ ing in that venture. One Springfiield* er this week suggests that Judge Gol­ den Davis assign Prosecutor Nev*us to that room for a term fitting the unanimous verdict returned against him for bribery. Nevius was a Dem­ ocratic New Dealer and riiust do a "stretch”, But then we all cannot operate with White House blessing. WANTED—Acotyline Weld­ ing and Culling and bronzing.

Despite heavy requirements for fertilizer and special care in man­ agement, results from .the use. of Ladino adequately repay the/ effort. Its particular value has been found to lie in the handling of dairy cattle and poultry where a high- yielding, nutritious, high - protein feed is needed. This versatile crop is being used increasingly for hay and silage, particularly when grown with other legumes and grasses, al­ though It is primarily for grazing. Sunflowers New Gash Crop for Farmers Sunflowers may soon rival corn and soybeans in food value as well as a cash crop. With sunflower oil selling at 14.5 cents a pound and an acre producing a ton of seed, the farmers around Monticello, 111., ex­ pect to produce more than corn or soybeans. Sunflowers have' long been recog­ nized as an excellent source of pro­ tein and oil. America imported 120 NPW sunflower picker speed* prodactlon. million pounds of sunflower oil be­ tween 1932 and 1936, mostly for edi­ ble purposes. One hundred acres of test plant­ ing yielded 1,600 pounds of seed. It .was harvested by a cllpover com­ bine, self-propelled, formerly used for soybeans. Tests made at the University of Illinois showed that the seeds contained 53 per cent pro­ tein and’ were easily digested. The oil was excellent for salads and cooking. Pays to Fight Weeds To control weeds the following points should be remembered: don’t i let Weeds go to seed, buy only weed- free seeds and feeds, clean home- , grown seeds carefully, grind or 1 screen weed-freed grain, and don’ t let machinery spread weeds. I Run-down weedy pastures should ! he renovated and godd rotation and i cultural practices resorted to with intensive cultivation.
