Tyson, of •London, issues the following state­ ment: In order to meet an immediate need for additional plant space, Morris Bean & Company, o f Yellow. Springs has leased the former Hagar Paper Company plant in • Cedarville, now owned by H. A. Tyson of London, O. It is expected that this unit will be operated, after necessary alterations as a unit equipped to make small ab uminum castings. The exact use to which the building will be put how­ ever,- will depend partly on the avail­ ability of equipment. In making the announcement of this expansion, Mr. Bean explained that restrictions of space and person­ nel have limited the production of his company with only .a few exceptions, to tire mold castings for .the major rubber companies. Be­ cause o f the large, requirements for tire molds, and the technical advant­ ages offered by the process used in making these castings, very heavy demands have1been made on the a- vaiiable facilities by a few large cust­ omers. Since these demands are in William Albert Godsmark} Dayton , creasing still more, and since import- RECEIVED BROKEN.

The number of people who cun satisfactorily be em. ployed in the present Yellow Springs plant has about been reached, with n payroll o f approximately 125 per­ sons. It is contemplated that the Cedarville operation will utilize from 40 to 80 persons, depending ,on the use to which the building is put. Mr. Bean’said that the management plans to use the Yellow Springs plant at full capacity. He said also that it was hoped conditions would permit, within a reasonable period, a build­ ing program in Yellow Springs. This would provide new and- modem build­ ings, designed to house all o f the op­ erations o f the company. The management o f this- company, Mr. Btam stated, welcomes this op­ portunity to become better acquaint­ ed ith the people o f .Cedarville, par­ ticularly since many of its employees come from Cedarville and its sur­ rounding farms.

Lincoln, president of the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation, unfolded a-plan of co-operation between the American fanners and the CIO. Mr. Lincoln in his talk stressed his idea o f the "non-profit" enter­ prise in the country and against free enterprise. He termed his movement a “revolution". His speech indicated the farm industry, along with other industry, has been wrong from the start regardless* o f tho success re­ flected in well improved farms, homes and enjoyment o f more benefits than can be found in any other nation o f the world. He says we are headed for a “ bust” one that is going to smack into the middle . o f American economy and challenge the very form o f democracy we live by. In short the nation’s business is controlled by nothing but .‘‘crooks” and only his following (the believers in Fascism) can be trusted to save the country. Tho peculiar slant o f Mr. Lincoln’s address was that he urged co-opera­ tion between - farmers and the CIO.1 it was the CIO that wanted hog^and cattle prices put back to June 30th prices. The CIO following Clinton Anderson’s price ceiling on live stock' demanded o f President Truman that he force Anderson to resign as the present price on live stock would call for strikes for. higher wages to meet the increased cost o f living. Mr. Lin­ coln is trying to lea"d the farmer in the company o f one Joseph Stalin. Sheriff Deputies Ask Salary Increases Deputies . under Sheriff Walton Spahr have petitioned for "an adjust­ ment in salary and working hours", and also gave a copy to the county commissioners. Four of the five regular deputies signed the-petition for the salary in­ crease and three signed for resigna­ tions effective October 1 if there was no increase in pay. Chief Deputy C. A. Stewart arid Deputies John G, Reuber,. C. P. Ma- hanna and Joseph E. Apderson signed the first demand and Mahanna failed to sign the threat o f resignation. It is said Deputy Homer Spahr signed neither. The petitions demand an eight hour work day, subject only to call after hours, $200 a month for the deputies nd $225 a month for the .chief dep­ uty. Sheriff Spahr says increases are necessary. Stewart' gets $185; Reu­ ber and Homer Sgahr $180, Anderson $165 and Mahanna $160. The county commissioners early in the year denied increases because the general fund would not stand'increas­ es. It is said the salaries are below what is paid in adjoining counties. College Opened With- Prewar Enrollment Cedarville College .'opened Tuesday with a prewar enrollment according to reports from the office o f Presi­ dent Ira D. Vayhinger. It was the 63rd opening for the school and the enrollment includes a number o f re­ turned veterans, The college convocation will be held Sunday night at 8 o ’clock in the U. P. Church, when the sermon will be delivered by President Vayhinger. Some fifty or more. huskies have reported for football practice Under Coach Beattie.

Vayhinger, has announced two new additions to the faculty o f Cedarville College. The Rev. Frederick Carlson o f Garvin, Iowa, who will head the,,chair o f Bible teaching. Mrs. Olive Brill CUrlsen, wife o f the pastor, will teach in the department o f English.

HOLDING THE LINE ( ? ) The OPA shot up the price o f flour this week and sugar will jump 1 l-2c a pound before the week tads* , Slaughter Permit Held Up BY OTA; No Meat A local 'meat dealer and slaughter •?, Edward S. Carlisle: o f the Carlisle Market wsb suspended from slaugh­ tering under the Communistic dicta­ torship New Deal rules in Columbus, Wednesday. Carlisle, along ( with a number o f other legitimate dealers faced the charges o f exceeding killing qu'otas. The charge covered the time the OPA law was a dead letter after June 30 until the new law ,was passed one month later. Never before was it an offense to violate a law that was not op the statute books. Mr., Carlisle was penalized and de­ nied slaughtering o f cattle for six weeks, two weeks on calves and two months on swine. We made the rounds o f local stores tiursday- > Th ■morningi and meat was a- bput as scarce as anything that could be mentioned. A little, cold cut meat made up out -of. old dairy cows was the extent o f the supply, Two local dealers have in. the -past, been supplied by out o f town firms that are now closing down because they cannot op­ erate under the Truman OPA dicta­ torship'rules; Republicans have a satisfaction of knowing that Democratic shooters for Bankrupt Harry’s highbinders have to take the wame dose and like it. The only alternative to get relief is to apply a political rule, one petition for Democrats and one for Republi­ cans and independents asking that the OPA .recognize the rule o f reason instead of dictatorship and lift the quota ban on slaughtering. If this doeB not bring relief farmers should refuse to sell any kind o f livestock until the bah is lifted. Farmers-Packers In Conspiracy Says Sabath Cong. Sabath, Dem., Chicago, had a wild dream several days ago and tried to explain to his constituents' and the nation that the meat shortage was criminal conspiracy between the big packing interests and the farm­ ers. He charged the packers with holding back meat for higher prices and the farmers for holding back live stock. The Chicago Congressman prob­ ably has no use fo r pork due to his religion. He represents a section of Chicago, downtown, which includes the alley residents, basements and top floor lofts along with the deni­ zens o f the underworld. His expla­ nation was made to clear the OPA and New Dealers. • PACKERS SHIT BOORS; HOSLAHRHTER Rev. R. C. Frederick j Resigns His Pastorate Rev. R. C. Frederick announces this week his resignation as pastor o f the Church o f God which he founded and established .several years ago. Rev. Frederick says he has no ten­ tative plans aa to the ministory at tbe present time, but that he will con­ tinue to be open for appointments to speak on receipt o f invitation. He is president p f the. Cedarville Ministerial Association and secretary o f the Greene County Ministerial as sociation. He is also a member o f -the village board o f public affairs and is a trus­ tee on the local Community Park as sociation board. He is associated with the sales department o f the Creswell Products Co. LiquorBoard Revokes George Dean License The State Liquor Control Board in a hearing at Columbus last week re­ voked the beer license held by George Dean, who is npw serving a term in the pen for shooting two persons last March in his beer parlor. Dean operated a diva that was a disgrace to the business. The Board acted wise in cancelling- the permit aa a penalty for what has happened. Moreover had it not been cancelled it could have been sold to whoever paid the highest price for it. We are in. formed one or more persons had hope getting the' license, one who would have operated a place much on the same liaes as did Ptasu Shouters for the New Deal OPA have reaped a lap-full o f low prices on meats but instead of soup bones it is going to be a case o f shewing finger nails. With ceilings on live stock below cost o f production livestock shipment to the large and small markets have dropped to almost nothing. For instance at the Clark Co. Live­ stock Producers' yard, Springfield, last Friday but one load o f under fed hog arrived. In normal tjmes it would not even be regarded as fit for meat. Thousands o f packing house work­ ers in the cities have been laid o ff as receipts at stockyards are the low- . est ever known. > Walter Cultice of the. Xenia Aba­ ttoir, Xenia, stated Tuesday-that his plant would close Saturday until fur­ ther notice Fisher Bros., Xenia, are also discontinuing slaughtering. The Anderson plant may follow likewise and this will cut ofjj, every source o f meat supply for Xenians. Packing houses in Dayton, Piqua and Colum­ bus are closed now. ' The Pittsburgh firm owning the Cedarville Livestock;Co., have closed down their plant cutting o ff 600 re­ tail outlets. Only, a few hogs have been received here the past week, not enough for a car load. The Truman administration has tried to make a goat out o f the A- - merican farmer and feeder who now refuses to be kicked around. The general public, especially meat consumers and that includes most all, has no right to complain about the price or scarcity o f meat. I f the pub­ lic had listened to reason and not swallowed New Deal OPA lies eondi. tions would not be what they are to­ day. You can expect nothing less of an administraaion that places rad- cal Communism ahead o f American­ ism. Con^ Brown On Air Saturday Evening t Cong. Clarence J. Brown, chairman o f the Republican National Executive Committee will- be heard over Station WLW at 10:15 Saturday night. His subject will be "Election Issues in the Ohio Valley", A resident o f Michigan informs us that the late potato crop in Michigan will be a near failure. The recent cold spell sent the mercury down to 28 degrees while the tops were still : green. He says what potatoes there were on the vines will not keep be­ cause they are not matured. .
