THURMAN MILLER, JR............................. - Editor and Publisher ubliikft, are serving sentences. The voters in Ciark county with pencil in hand wrote a verdict last Novem­ ber, “Had Enough” . Entered as second class matter, Octo her 31, 1887, at the Postoffice at Ce- darville, Ohio, under the Act o f March 1879. FRIDAY, JAN. 24, 1947 FARMERS WANT MORE SUGAR FOR THEIR COFFEE It was interesting to hear th e , farm program from Station WLW several days ago when the sugar question was discussed by dirt, farm­ ers with Roy Battles as interlocutor. We recall that famous spech made by Secretary of Agriculture, Anderson, over the same station some months a- go. The Secretary is now the nation's New Deal sugar boss. His promises o f what he was going to do for the farmer are on the par with his pro­ mises about more sugar for consum­ er-; in this country. Each farmer interviewed over the air stated in plain, terms he wanted more sugar for his coffee and sent­ iment was plain that there should he more sugar* fo r Americans even if there was to he less for the Europeans, and pagan groups in Africa that never had a sugar diet until Roosevelt, Wallace and theNew Deal crack-pots began giving away American goods as well as the tax payer’s money. The demand for more sugar for Americans recalls a line under the heading on the first page of the Herald, “ Americans for America — America fo r Americans” . The election last November was an endorsement of that sentiment. Now we find a few Republicans that have taken up the New Deal cry of sugar control and even Cong. Tom Jenk­ ins of Ohio, thinks another five pounds might be scraped up some place to can a bushel of cherries, peaches or pears while the liquor interests and commercial users get increases unknown to the housewives of the nation. If Secretary Anderson will make public the consumption of sugar by housewives for home use and make comparison o f the grants to liquor beer and wine interests, then and only then will the consumers of this nation get a perfect and truthful picture of the sugar situation. The Secretary as well as Mr. Jenkins will have a hard time convincing hou.-ewives, Republican as well as Democratic, that fruit should rot on orchard trees while the admin­ istration diverts sugar to Europe and for beverage purposes. It is appalling that even soft drink manufacturers had their quota reduced and hard liquor interests favored. Taking sugar away from Americ­ ans, even the sections o f the country that produce it, is had enough but when we get letters from residents o f those sections stating beets are rotting and sugar cane is moulding at the processing plants we wonder just, who is giving the public the facts, those interested as citizens and con­ sumers or a group of New Dealers down in Washington that serve only selfish purposes for the political strength in the cause of a theory o f government whereby even food con­ trols must serve their purpose. There is another angle to the sug­ ar situation that is the profit motive. Months ago Cuba offered several mil­ lion tons of sugar to this country at a fraction of a cent a pound more than it was priced. The New Deal­ ers turned it down. Then England purchased the sugar with funds bor­ rowed from the administration down in Washington that loans the money through favored Democratic-New Dealfinancial agents in Washington and New York, The press today states thae sugar is to go up in price a fraction o f a cent per pound to American consum­ ers. We wonder just how much sug­ ar the New Deal administration und­ er President Truman has placed in the hands o f the brokers? With the present muddled sugar situation and the inconsistancy o f reports o f those who wish to defend the sugar con­ trol plan it would be interesting to at least to have one more statement from Mr. Anderson. In view o f the fact that hundreds of thousands of. housewives from Democratic fam*» lies in the nation voted last Noember “ Had Enough” , one would think Mi*. Anderson would wake up after the party had been repudiated at the polls. Ohio is not interested in any view Mr. Jenkins has had or might have in sugar. His five pound bonus proposal is being received with con­ tempt by all classes. Only the Repub­ lican majority in Congress suffers what stigma comes from it by the housewives o f the nation. Some o f these days we hope to visit one o f the greatest sugar pro­ ducing sections o f the nation. The last time we were there the manage­ ment appeal fo r help from Congress to let them make more sugar. They did not get it nor did the farmer get more sugar for his coffee. I f there is any doubt in Democratic circles as to how the Roosevelt fam­ ily has stood on Communism, just read up on Elliott's recent excursion to Russia and his outspoken account of how Stalin functions. Not one of the family now has much to say for the Democrats. Their idol was is in Moscow,-and the same can be said for FDR. Henry Wallace is another fol­ lower. My, how some faces must turn red when these names are ment- ioed and their record is reviewed. lU llllim im illlllH H IM IH H IIIIIH IU IIIM IM ttH im tttlllllllltiU tN S h e tSaPPEgM KpTmii. < *btj - DublinBrass* V Did you ever read “ Tobacco Road” or have you ever seen the stage play that depicts backwoods rural life in that state ? If you have you have a fair picture of life in that state though we would not say all citizens live and act as the characters are pictured in a play that has been on the stage continually for five or more years. What has happened over the governorship is easily imagined when you review the conduct*of “Jeet- ers” , the main character. What has happened recently in that state though we would not say i that state is just what the Ku Klux ; Klan and the NewDeal have preached 1 and .practiced for years. Such elements control the state and did so all dur­ ing the Roosevelt administrations* No objection was made as long as the Kluxers were backing FDR* Now the cry is Northern “ carpetbaggers” (are trying to run the state through i stooges of their choice. Radio com­ mentators have no doubt been at the bottom o f inciting race reaction and are credited with bringing about the revival o f the hooded tribe. We can mention one institution where race discrimination was practiced by FDR and that over management o f health resort. His institution had a closed door against any negro boy or girl that had become a victim o f polio. It still upholds “white supremecy” . While radio commentators rage and Democrats plead equal rights here is a cancer sore in their own circle going by unhealed. The Ohio Supreme Court has held former Prosecutor Neviuv, Dem­ ocrat, guilty of accepting bribe money and gifts from gambling in­ terests in Clark county. While the Democrats and CIO leaders fight to keep Nevius out o f prison, oth­ ers found guilty, including a Rep- WE PAY FOR O R S E S * 5 S COWS ACCORDING TO SIZE AND CONDITION CALL XEN IA JR I Reverse Charges XENIA FERTILIZER E.

Jeffersonville, O, Phone 8301 The City Commission in Spring- field is in a fight over control over taxicabs. City Manager Fross de­ manded higher insurance protect­ ion fo r patrons and a number o f other things that evidently were fo r the benefit o f the public having use o f the cabs in the city. For some time the commission has debated the proposals and it came to a head a few days ago when the comission by a vote o f three to two removed the city manager from office and kicked him into the streets. I t seems one member o f the commission re­ presented an outside o f the city firm that owned taxi cabs and did not want more insurance protection fo r its patrons at the expense o f the taxi company. It is said the issue w ill, be fought out at the next election fo r city commission. Commission form o f government is just what the elect­ ors make it in the kind o f men chosen fo r the office. In this case the interests o f the public are secondary. that Ifaria. products decline after each war; Civil, War, World War I, and predict another slump as a result o f World War II.

Kel- log, manager of the Central Ohio Breeding association, will he prin­ cipal speaker. More than 200 farmers are memb­ ers o f the Greene county association which was organized early in the year. Milo Cooper is the county in- seminator. County officers are Earl Ritenour, president; Fred Willima- son, vice president, and John Stover, secretary-treasurer. Gov. Thomas Herbert read his mes­ sage before the joint session of the House and Senate Monday evening. He had much, to say that will be goad for the state i f enacted into law. A - waiting report o f a commission to make recommendations on the tax matters, the Governor has not def­ initely outlined "his position. The tax porblem for the state and under Republican congressional control is to a domant factor that party leaders must face before another election. Reduced taxes in Ohio and in the nation on income were cam­ paign issues. How and where to cut is going to he the Mg issues. Then we have new demands fo r more tax money, especially fo r the schools and a bonus fo r the veterans of World War II. Both were also campaign issues. The Republicans are now on the “ spot'*. The electors recall the promises just as the housewives re­ call the promises on “more sugar” . Let there be no trifling. Make a cam­ paign promise as good as govern­ ment bonds. Then we will have easy sleding two years from now at the polls.
