There were so many good things we can •not give praise for all singly. The public was pleased with the program and the home-comers well repaid for their returned t l t i . S £ l —— - -*■ low and his associates. This year’s event has set a high mark for those who may have charge next Labor Day. Eight to ten million men and wo­ men are to be out o f w o r k by Janu­ ary say administration leaders while industry reconvert to peacetime goods and former lines o f merchandise, Now we hear cries o f unemployment insur ance to care for the unemployed—say $25 weekly for 26 weeks. Those who made the big war-time wages of ten and twelve dollars a day are broke or badly bent. However a small percent have saved money. Some yet have their "war bonds Some have purchas­ ed a home. This is fine, What this larger percent has squandered is now ,,f little or no use for the reconversion Tha output o f the New De»' bureaucrat, I ,1crackpot Another red tape rule has been hit the farmer. The New Peal, is not dead but is biding behind a screen. Far­ mers must get a permit to kill or have killed their own hog fo r their own use. The Same rule applies for cat­ tle and sheep. Just the creation o f a close -watch being kept on the barn lot for dead hogs, cattle and sheep. There' must be something new each week to keep the tax-eaters on the government payroll. It is said the order was issued to hit the miners who paid more than ceiling prices for young porkers to have more meat. The miner retaliates with—no meat no coal. Bureaucratic bungling puts the home owners in a tight place for his coal supply. another “ WPA” or something similar. Such movement must be financed with tax money. Property or income tax- Ies. There is a background of the old Roosevelt spending fever in the Tru­ man administration—make prosper- v,*.—* ,-— >-__________ - ity by taxing those who have saved as to the truth and falsity of the Pearl Harbor incident, pub- to support those who have thrown or « i / 11 * j , .1 1 a m J a 1 e w w*n — - - - gambled their money away, PEARL HARBOR STORY MUST BE TOLD IN FULL Now that Congress is back in session and reports so varied I . lic interest is going to demand' that all cards be laid on the table. So far nothing of importance has come forth other than a squabble among administration Democrats as to who is and who is not responsible for the temporary loss of the Philippines to the Japs. Every effort was made while Franklin Roosevelt lived to have an investigation. .He ordered the retirement of Adm. Kimmell and Maj. Gen. Short but he would not permit a court marshal hearing. Both high officers asked for an im-| ‘mediate hearing but it was refused time after time. The wild administration spenders think nothing of national or private debt but cry in­ flation—to throw dust in the eyes of the public. That was the Roosevelt spendthrift rule. . France tried that ifter the first world war by issuing jonds that have and never will be jaid. Some one should whisper to Mr Joseph Stalin has just let it be nown that part o f his pay for enter­ ing the war against Japan was to be a group of islands in the Pacific. The deal was made by FDR at Yalta ac­ cording to Stalin. It so happens part of the islands wanted by Russia are those the U, S, need for air bases for military protection. Some o f .these days when Stalin gets all he wants we will discover the story that has gone over the country about Joe dressing a “ pyscho" up as a waiter to serve the wants of FDR at Yalta, must have been true, The “ Dr." reported to Joe that he was dealing with a very sick man. It is seldom that this type of “ Dr." treats- gout or corns. He iB a high grade brain specialist. J3ince Japan has surrendered demands are being made in I paid.

Both officers still insist on immediate action. The Democrats for some reason or another fear any kind of a hearing. One government agency charged Gen. Marshall as responsible^- A Democratic faction charged Secretary Hull as being responsible. It is plain the Democrats are looking for a “ goat” to protect the record and escape party responsibility for what a dead man did. One. needs no more proof that something is ‘.‘rotten in Denmark” that to survey the antics Of administration leaders. President Truman is adding nothing to his stature by holding back any record that might be in the White House office that w.ould shed light on the issue. It is evident that both Kimmell and Short have “ an ace up their sleeve” and might if given a chance to change the picture and place the blame where it belongs. All in all we had given so much of our war material away to Britain and other nations already in the war that we were caught helpless. Any school boy would know as did the Japs that we could not give away our protection and have it in an hour of need any more than the boy could still “ have his cake after eating it.. ' Congress should force the issue in behalf of the thousands of our boys now in Japanese prison camps and in the name of the hundreds that have given their lives in the Pacific theatre of war- Both majority and minority leaders in Congress should bring out all the facts in this issue regardless of who might be involved. . . . HOW THEY DID WEEP FOR THE UNEMPLOYED Elliott Roosevelt in his financial escapades has turned the spotlight of publicity on not only his private affairs but the income of the family during the time they resided in the White House. Congress has been delving, into the $200,000 loan giv­ en by a chain store owner to Elliott with worthless paper as the only security.. The name o f FDR figures in the loan right at a time the govemment'was bringing suit against the chain store company. What connections the loan may have had with the pending suit will never be known until Congress makes its re­ port on. the investigation. Regardless of the fact the family took the No- 1 seat after the first inauguration, even though it was in . the days of the depression, bank closing and WPA, yet prosperity soon fell in­ to the lap of some members of the family. At that time, the public knew nothing of Elliott and little about Mrs. FDR. As for earning capacity none ever knew they had reached the sal- ry list of a Wall Street operator, one of tho e mean old hoggish gentlemen that FDR once termed the “ money changers in the -stemple.” That the harvest for the-family as a whole must have been abundant, those in the knowing say the family income in the period of White House residence reached two and one-half .million dollars. One of the first business ventures in the family was that of young James, whose maideg effort was a partnership in a Bos­ ton company. He was made vice president of the company at $15,000 a-year. Regardless of the fact that James had no ex­ perience in the insurance business his company began picking off insurance business that netted rich returns. Old line com pariies complained when they lost the business and charged it was due to White House influence; Meantime sympathetic ap­ peals were coming from the White House for support of the unemployed who finally landed leaf raking jobs under the rest cure system as outlined by the WPA. Mamma Roosevelt did not do bad either back in those gloomy days when corn meal and apples were peddled to all that applied. In the period from 1933 to 1945 it is" estimated Mamma drew down a total of $900,000 selling soap, shoes, and and what-nots over the radio. She also had a fat investment in the “ My Day” daily syndicate. James is said to have taken down some $460,OOO'from the insurance business. He made connections with a motion picture company at a big salary and helped run the war as a side issue drawing a princely salary as a high officer. James soon earned the title of Wall Street op­ erator due to his many successful business ventures—at least concerns that paid big salaries. For instance he drew $35,000 as president of a yeast company. As vice president of a motion picture company he drew $3,000 a month salary, By this time Elliott reached the first page with his $200,000 loan, approved by “ Dad” . It is this congress is investigating. The investigation shows that Elliott borrowed some $1,175,000.00, which is do­ ing quite well even for the son of a president of the U. S. Then we recall that FDR sold a lot of government papers from the White House office to a newspaper syndicate for a mere $100,- 000, Which he reported was used to erect a museum on the Hyde Park estate to house “ state papers” . Congress should do two thihgs, file a copy of the report on Elliott’s doings; and the suggestion by a Democratic senator that Congress should appropriate $50,000 annually to maintain and police the Hyde Park estate so the family might have a place for abode in cash the family had tq seek shelter when the next economic storm blows us into a second depression. The Democratic senator offers no suggestion for shelter for the average Democratic leaf raker that might get caught in the storm. .hat' a burdensome debt is far worse -han ’ inflation and might make your var bonds as valueless as those is ,ued by France over twenty-five year5* a g o , / Compare the plight of the spend- hrift farmer, the one who buys and juys—on credit— until he cannot) pay1- .f he has operated bn his savings he ,s soon broke. If he operates on bor­ rowed money, he'is sold out. In eith­ er he is down and out—just like the ?10 a day war worker that is now out if a, job and broke, as administration leaders admit is the case. The fellow ,vho has saved his money is to be tax'd o f penalyzed to support the spend hrift. The professional man on mod- •st salary, who has been the goat uri- ler the New Deal, must pay his little ncome tax to pile up a fund to feed he wild spender o f war days. ■ The ,'armer that went wild financially has -io place to go for succor but the alms .louse or start over as a day worker, Greene county farmers can look forward to the time when their land and holdings, along with town prop >rty to the time when federal taxes vvill be levied on them to ‘feed Jthe ex­ travagant spenders of war days. If not directly, then indirectly he will pay his share of the cost. ' Manufac­ turers of farm machinery and house­ hold goods will cost more with higher corporate taxing. To hold down the cost of living farm prices will be at » new low—now that we have free, trade under Truman whp can let in all kinds of farm crops, livestock from all over the globe where labor will be less than half what American farm labor can possibly be. This will not be a eery healthful condition for the far­ mer who has gone in debt for land or for farm operation, either loans from Uncle Sam or from the hometown bank. The same government that is loaning money compels repayment to it and it also tells the bank to close in on the farmer when notes remain un- qnpaid. ODD-LOT FACTORY FURCHASI M IN E S ’ FUH COATS AH mw 1945 nim M*. If w« hay* s I m W* «4w mv « you from $25 I* $100 cmyour coat- B&B Unemployment is largely a govern­ ment or administration baby. Manu­ facturers in hundreds of cases are and have been ready for weeks to manufac ture peace-time goods. The adminis­ tration wartime red tape is still a- round business management. The owner of an industrial plant knows more about -his problems than some soft-headed Democratic squirt down in Washington that would have to turn in his last collar and tie to get a $10 loan at any bank in the country. As long as OPA fixes prices ,certain ar­ ticles needed in the home and for wear will ,be scarce. When a manufacturer must sell his goods without a profit, you will not find those goods on the store counters. We mention a few. Underwear for old and young. Over­ all for the factory worker and. farmer as well as the ten-cent canvas gloves. One manufacturer of canvass gloves refused to sell his 100,000 pair stock at 10c because of increased labor cost and added social security taxes His profit'the year previous was only one cent per pair. His added labor cost was a fraction over one cent a pair. The OPA refused to grant the one cent increase in whole sale price, The manufacturer still has his gloves, The factory worker and farmer had to go without the gloves. Put down in your note book just how many places you were able to get 10c gloves the past six months, Dealers sold out long ago and conditions must change if there 'is a ten cent glove on the market this winter. Southern cotton growers are campaigning to hold back cotton from the mnrket due to low OPA prices. In tho meantime knitting mills have not cotton for winter wear. Ohio farmers might tear out a page from cotton rules and apply same to livestock. The OPA has no interest in profit for the .farmer. It was created that oth­ ers might eat at the farmer’s expense. As we read the “ letters from sub­ scribers in various city papers, we are not so sure President Truman has hit a popular cord in urging the drafting of eighteen year old boys. 'Schools and colleges suffer most. Parents on farms need the boys if crops are to be harvested. Mothers write tearful ap' peals for release o f their sons. Most letters on releasing of men over seps on the point system are critical. The writers that support the 18-year draft have no sons to be called. One writer wants to know why the President does not withdraw the 35,000 youths of draft age in government offices that were exempted by FDR and put these young Democratic slackers in service over in Japan. The Dayton Journal some days ago said some 6,000 employees at Wright and Patterson Fields are to get the permanent vacation slips this month. Hundreds have quit already and have taken jobs in industry where they can expect steady employment. One of the military brass hat;is quoted as saying we will have to police Japan for at least twenty years with not less than 500,000 o f our boys. This will be read with Interest where boys in Democratic families will fall into uni­ form at 18 years of age. ' Mr. Truman did his best if it was his worst blunder when he attempted to put the blame of the Pe.arl Harbor attack on the American people. How could the preachers prevent the at­ tack ? How about the farmer, the housewife, the painter or ditch digger have kept the Japs opt of Manila? It was a poor effort to shield the record of a dead, man. Whitewash is a good think when used in its proper place. Kimmel and Short have a story to tell and the Democrats should give them a chance. They may have some papers as evidnee .such as telegrams o f in­ structions on what to do. Why kick Gen. Marshall around? Everyone is convinced thte White House had full knowledge o f what the Japs were pre­ paring to do . You may recall at the hour of the attach so to speak, a Jap was occupying a chair at the White House feeding the Comntander-in- Chief his favorite dish,taffy and self- praise. Mr, Truman might just as well indict a six months babe in the crib for the Pearl Harbor disaster as to try to unload on the American peo­ ple. The people elected a President to protect ,our interests andactasCom- mander-in-Chief. The public was at tending to its own business and de­ pending on its President to fulfill his sworn duties. Th* mayor o f Odessa, Texas, Is­ sued • proclamation “ under the au­ thority given me by the constitution o f the state o f Texas," He appoints “ every property owner in Odessa a special officer who, upon being sworn 1 in by me, will have full authority to ; protect his life and property at all i times." Against whom? Against “ America’s I 'To. 1 Enemy" that has “ forced our daries, out o f existance, starved our children for want o f milk, almost stopped the raising o f cattle—confis­ cated our homes—forced many old people to go hungry because they cannot realize sufficient income under the present dictatorship to pay taxes, much less eat." He refers to OPA—•. Gov, Andrew Schoeppel o f Kansas has boiled over also. A soldier dis­ charged after 25 months duty overseas tried to get an oil stove so he could resume housekeeping. The OPA re­ jected the Application on the ground that the soldier had not been burning oil for six months! The governor is mad. So is Kansas. Maraboo, Wis., Chairman o f ra tion board quits after 1000 citizens gather at court house protesting OPA penalties against 300 farmers who ar« charged with selling eggs above the ceiling. * The above are just a few items o f the Weekly grist we gather from ex­ changes. We could add some more experiences from even Montgomery and adjoining counties. Many local boards are not at fault, they are but following orders from Washington. Chester Bowles was appointed to head the. OPA by Franklin D; Roosevelt. If you can name a successful appointee in private life that - was named to •a place o f prominence and responsi. biiity by the late FDR, we will award a cromo. Don't always blame the lo­ cal draft boards. Center your fire on the New Deal bureaucrats in Wash­ ington. NOTICE OF APPOINTMENT Estate o f William S, Hopping, De­ ceased.
