This means an aver­ age loss to the farmer o f about $10 a hundred pounds on hogs ' and more on cattle. The "decontrol” board, a misnomer, is now branded a "controlled board” to rap the farmer and force him to feed the nation at a loss and yet standby and see prices of most everything he purchases increased by the OPA. The verdict is no surprise for students of political trend have quietly predicted the result would be just as announced this week. Election time is near. Another reason the verdict would be as it is due to the refusal of ‘having a representative of agriculture on the- "decontrol board” . A third- reason why the verdict is what it is can be layed to the fact all three mem­ bers of the board appointed by President Truman are known as "Nwv Dealers” . To announce that George Mead, Dayton millionaire industrialist, was a Republican member of the board was false because he served on numerous Roosevelt war boards where no Republican was even allowed a hearing. The farm interests through (the farm organizations should demand of the next Congress, an investigation of Mead’s connection with the war boards and his business interests. The grain as well as the livestock producer is now wedged in between $14 hogs and $2 corn/with the blackmarket his only outlet for a profit. Probably some of our Democratic farmers that have carried the New Deal chip on their shoulder can ex­ plain where the profit is to come from on livestock. The only alternative to the present New Deal price fixing is to be found in the next election in November, not only for members of congress, Senate and House, but in the election of the entire Republican state ticket as well. Senator James Huffman, Dem., Columbus, who was ap­ pointed by Gov. Lausehe to succeed Sen. Burton, resigned,-voted consistently in the closing days of the last Congress with the CIO and New Dealers against anything even fair for agricul­ ture. As would be expected Cong. Clarence J. Brown, himself the owner of several hundred acres in Clinton county, took the lead in the interest of fair play for agriculture. WORDS FROM WASHINGTON *A few days ago Washington sent to the world a couple of $64 words. This was something new, in that Washington sel­ dom is so sparing of the taxpayers money. These two partic­ ular bits of the English vocabulary, coming in quick succession, caused, no little hustle and bustle among newpapermen—and newspaper readers—the nation over. Everybody, it seems, including President Truman, ran to^the dictionary when the verbal blasts broke. The first of the troublesome pair came from Rep. Clarence J.,Brown of Blanchester. ‘ Representative Brown, is a journal­ ist himself, and should have known the particular term in ques­ tion never could have made a headline. But he used it just the same. He said Mr. Truman’s new budget was ’misleading, either through the use of imagination or inganriation’.” The President, after a conference with the shade of old Noah Web­ ster, replied that Mr. Brown was practicing “ obfuscatibn”—and that, presumably, caused the gentleman from Blanchester to consult the well-worn dictionary on his editorial desk. Both words are good ones, even if they haven’t been used much in the public prints of late. Mr. Brown's “ ingannation” , our own Webster’s shows in the addendum, comes from the Latin "ingannare” and means deceits Obfuscation means—as Mr, Truman said— “ that* the other fellow is trying to mess you up,” or more exactly, to confuse and bewilder the issue. The whole affair has us pretty well worried. Not the in­ cident in itself, for we've been able to clarify both terms, after considerable research. But we’re wondering what’s going to happen when the election campaign swings into stride. If the preview means anything, we’re doomed to spend the next few months with a lexicon on our knees and a Latin grammar in pur good right hand! —Cincinnati Enquirer, get back to fuwUhientals under the| constitution and do something for the1 American people ? This will never hap­ pen jyith the CIO and Roosevelt Com- munists in charge o f the government iti Washington. THE NEGLECTED CEMETERY We have a lot of discussion about conservation. There is conservation o f the soil, of water, o f wild life, o f fish, o f foul, o f forestry, and many other things we need to Sustain life on this planet for the benefit o f mankind, to day and in the future. As we ride about the country we are impressed as to the loss o f our Bhade and forest trees. Disease and pest are destroying hundreds o f our trees in every locality each season. Wfe find city parks laid almost bare; cemeteries are no longer shaded as in the past. The -woodman’s axe is laying 'em low daily, all due to pests or disease. And what are we doing to protect trees that have -not been attacked by the pests or disease? The answer, is “ Little or nothing". We argue about saving, wild life (to kill) but we do nothing to give wild life the protection nature gave it. The loss of elm trees reaches into the hundreds o f thousands each year. The scyamores come next in numbers. The Chinese elms once thought safe from either pest or disease is going the way of the native elms. We see now and then the stately oak foliage turn­ ing brown and as we examine,the fol- liage we find the little borer is taking the substance of the tree from leaves that are needed to feed the^oak. The tree borer is proving costly to the much admired maple tree. When will we get to conservation of our shaded wooded tracts ? It might be interest­ ing to know something of the number of dead trees that can be seen as we drive back and forth between Xenia and Cedarville. Counting all dead trees in sight from the pike we find 92 dead trees between Cedarville and Wilberforce and 84 between Wilber- forc and Xenia, a total of 176.

Sold by Leading Dealers in Your Community The W. C. T. U. has put tho hottest potato on the Governor’s plate. He is head o f the Ohio Liquor Department by virtue o f his office. He names all of the board members and all inspec­ tors a’re subject to his- order.' The good ladies dug up an old law of 1888 that forbid open saloons within two miles o f any fair -ounda. For years no saloon could be nearer than a spec­ ified number o f feet from a school or church. Like the fair law old as both are neither have been repealed. That means they are on the law books and it is the duty of the Governor to se’e that they are obeyed. His answer is NOTHING DOING. Meantime saloon keepers in Columbus within the two mile area have gohe to court to hold up enforcement until after the state fair. Attorney General Jenkins held that the law was on the books.and it was up to the Governor and Liquor De. partment to enforce them—Net result nothingrdoing all of which places Ohio just a few steps nearer prohibition than before. Refusing to enforce the law on sale o f liquor and complaining about gambling not being squelched is putting the Governor behind the ’eight ball.’ A number of rural county officials have ordered saloons closed under the law. Tuesday a Common Pleas Judge in Marion county refused an injunc­ tion to the liquor interests and he haB ordered the state liquor store closed. The grand jury in that county is to take action if the law is not obeyed. Meantime the Gbvdhior who reacheg law enforcement on gambling, is as meek as a mouse on liquor violation. The issue promises to be a headache for law enforcement officials at the Nov, election. Governor you know the opinion of the Attorney General and a decision o f the Court at Marion, what are you going to do about it? While autos, auto repairs are to cost even Democrats more under thej OPA “ hold the line on high cost o f living" now this week radios, stoves, washing machines, vacuum cleaners, toasters,' electric irons and a lot o f other house­ hold articles needed in every home. These increases are all made under law'the OPA demanded and the law that President Truman Bigned. HERALDWANT ANDSALEADSPAY Thomas J, Herbert, Republican nom­ inee for governor, in a radio address, dehtands the reduction o f the sales tax from three to two per cent. This would save-the people o f Ohio more than 50 million dollars each year.

Is It not about time that Americana Careless crowds go daily past you, Where their future fate has cast you, - Leaving not a sigh or tear; And your wonder works outlast you— Brave old pioneer! • • Little care the selfish throng Where your heart is hid, Though they thrive upon the strong Resolute, work you did. . But our memory-eyes have found you, And we hold you grandly dear; With no work-day woes to wound you- With the peace o f God around you— Sleep old pioneer! They have been called from labor, to the elements from which they came; they toiled in sun and ■rain, they drained the swamps that today are waving fields o f corn, they planted a- cres that have developed into oaken trees o f majesty and strength, they erected beautiful modern homes to re­ place the cabins, what was once cow paths they replaced with hard-Burfac- ed highways that stretch from shore to shore. In fact they replaced the wilde- ness with beautiful and produc­ tive farmsteads. Have we forgotten them?, Stop for a few minutes and let us wander through the cemetries scatter­ ed over the country side. .Here we see pretentious granite slabs marking the resting place of. many . pioneer fami­ lies. What else do we see? What God intended should be an emerald, cover­ ing of soft grass has been crowded out with weeds thorns and .rubbish. Hard and sterile subsoil has replaced top soil in filling up the graves which Will not grow grass. The soar upon the breast of mother earth will, for many years, speak only of neglect. Have we forgotten them ? In life they loved and were loyed They sacrificed that posterity might have a fairer dwelling place. Have we forgotten them? In life, we loved them dearly; in death we should revere their memory. We do love them still. Have we for. gotten them. In the mad rush o f modem life and living we scarcely take the time or .make effort to turn our eyes to their last resting place. In, the writer’s boy days he remem­ bers a glass bread plate that came on his mother’s table three, times each day. Around the edge o f the plate were these words, “ Ti’s pleasant to la­ bor for those we love". Nearly, if not quite all o f life is wrapped up in those words. Might we not spend one day in the year in caring for the small plot o f ground wherein are the graves of mother and father? Have we for­ gotten them? . We are wont to say, “ it is the Bex- ton’s duty to look after this.” , Yes, it is his duty as well as the au­ thorities in charge. It is also our duty tp see that it is done ih such a way as to satisfy our personal pleasure and pride in work well done. I f only all interested might cooperate, it would be done. Then when we visit the last resting place o f our- loved ones we could say, NO, WE HAVE NOT FOR­ GOTTEN YOU. Truly, the proper .care of the cities o f our dead IS a mark o f civilization.
