Ed itoria l CAN THIS BE TRUE? It is being announced that the state highway department plans to construct a four-lane super­ highway between Xenia and Day- ton. Is there anybody in the audi­ ence who had- let himself believe he would live long enough to see that come to pass? Now that is is promised by 1950, it’s going to be hard to wait. However, many a motorist after 1950 will awaken in a cold sweat fram a nightmare of waiting for a 20- ton truck on the old iron bridge at Trebein, or dodging back in line after the 11th attempt to pass a jallopy on any of the treacherous curves of the old route. A NEW DEWEY “Lashing out” is the phrase to describe Governor Dewey’s forth­ right speech at the Lincoln day dinner. He put aside tender ref­ erences to a spade as a tool for menial tasks and called it a spade. The whole speech reeked with a directness,, a fraction^ of which injected into his campaign of acceptance-speech p h r a s e s would have put him in the White House, or at least as near as Blair house. The horse was stolen to be sure, hut Tom Dewey fin­ ally got 'round to locking the stable! IT* THE NAME! Day by day it becomes more evident that American labor dis­ likes the name of the Taft-Hart- ley law more than its provisions. Discussions of provisions labor and management desire in a prop­ er law lead invariably to the terms of the present law.. This is not a new discovery however. Months ago a nation-wide sur­ vey brought to light the things labor desires in a labor law are all in the Taft-IIartley act. It seems to be the name, not the provisions, that is disliked. IT’S YOUR MANSION That shack of yours down in Washington, D, G., called the White House, is being remodeled. An attempt to spend eight million dollaj# of your money—well, yours and ours together—is go­ ing to he made by folks down there who live, move and have their being on cost plus. The finest hotel in WDC cost a good bit less than that, and it has more marble stairs and bath­ rooms that anybody in Missouri ever saw, let alone wanted to live with. It’s your mansion, re­ member, and you and I and all the you’s and I ’s want our head man to live in a nice house—nicer than we can afford for ourselves. None of us want the president of the United States to live any­ where except in a classy domicile. But spending eight million dol­ lars remodeling a tumble-down shack, and the White House is little' better than those words imply, is nothing short of idiocy. HERBERT HOOVER Can you remember an instance of a public man being recalled to do a piece of work for his coun­ try, and receiving generous ac­ claim of all the people for a grand job doing it, like Herbert Hoover? He is 74, long past the age when most men retire from active duties, except advisory. The task assigned Herbert Hoo­ ver in streamlining the execu­ tive department of the govern­ ment is gigantic. His committee’s recommendations will startle po­ litical Washington. But political Washington needs to be startled. America has seen a miracle in the return of veteran Hoover to public service and public approv­ al. PRICES DOWN Funny, isn’t it? For a year or two- the fondest hope of the people of America has been that the cost of living come down. Nothing has been talked about more. But as soon as it begins to happen, everybody gets scared. PRANKISH WINTER Few persons recall a more un­ usual winter than this one has been. Areas that seldom have snow have been snowed under most of the season. Sections of the country that usually have rig­ orous weather have basked in warm sunshine with very little • thermometeritis. Here at home the weather man has been con­ siderate for the most part. A dip or two of snow, a now-and-then hint of real winter, but that’s been all. However, an item writ­ ten about the weather for this gets to its readers. HEATED ROADS Experiments with h e a t i n g roads and streets by ■under-sur­ face electric wires are proving successful. Out in California, where the winters pre severe (at least his one has been) electric­ ally heated streets have been the only one passable. Miles on miles of highway in some sections of the country much nearer Greene county, notably near Detroit, have proved^ that heating pays. Maybe, in_ time, all main roads will be winterized and be free from snow and ice in this fashion, fjfc is not as much of a dream as ^having the system of highways now have would have been to "oiks a couple of generations ago. About the only “haylift” most folks ever knew about before the mid-west blizzard 'was pitching hay up into a high mow with a three-pronged fork. Canada is considering the building of a trans-Canada high­ way. •TSe Gecferville, 0 . Herald Is It Finally Coming Down? r3E8£. ' S’-*-—'* —r M . 68. XEHHET8 1.

When he did, we may be sure he had something of the greatest importance on his mind. One of these occasions was: the night before he se-; lected the twelve men he called Apos­ tles. He had thous­ ands of disciples, c r o w d s followed: him wherever he went. But it was important to have Dr. Foreman a few with whom he could live as an intimate friend. So from the immense number cf fol­ lowers, Jesus selected twelve clos­ est friends. Before that fateful morning no one outside their vil­ lages had ever heard cf them. But now their names are known—and eleven of them are honored—around the world. • » * Jesus Multiplies Himself K GOOD executive, Jeers multi- * * plied his own personality. A recent book has shown, hew Harry Hopkins during World War II lived in the White House as Rcc-ssvelt’s personal companion, having given up his own ambitions and living on­ ly to carry out the ideas cf his chief. Without Roosevelt, Hcpkms would have been little more than on infer­ ior politician; and without Kerklns, many of Roosevelt’s plans could r.ct have been carried cut. He enabled the president to be in two places at once. So it was with Jesus, os Mark tells us. Jesus wanted these twelve to be with him, and then to send them out. He wanted these friends to know him as the crowds, and his en­ emies, never could know him. He wanted these men to absorb i l s ideas and ideals. The word Jesus used for them was not his own invention; ‘•apostle” was the word used all over the civil­ ized world in those days for an am­ bassador, a personal representative of royalty. All Christians are in the “apostolic succession." If a Chris­ tian can truly say, “I live, yet not I, but Christ liveth in me," then he Is, as these men were, Christ’s per- sbnal representative.' * * • Raw Material T ’ HE ASTONISHING thing chant Jesus’ choice of thee? twelve is his faith in them. Of course they had faith in him—who would not? But who would have faith in them? There was not a single "outstand­ ing” man in the lot. Net cue had what we would call a coller'- educa­ tion, not a man of them had held public office or was rich or famous for anything at all. There was Peter, an ordinary fish­ erman, much given to profanity; there was Matthew, a crooked bus­ iness man if ever there was cr.e, for no publican cculd be honest and keep from starving; there was Phil­ ip, as stupid a man as ever asked a foolish question; there were James and John, loud-mouthed (Jesus nick­ named them the Thunder Boys — “Sons of Thunder"), greedy fellows who could not be satisfied till they had elbowed their way ahead of everybody else; there was Thomas the bom pessimist, the defeatist. . . What Could have got into Jesus* ’mind to select such men? *■ * * —and Judas Iscariot SECRET of Jesus’ choice was this: He selected his men not for what they were or had been, but for what they could become, filled twith his spirit, transformed by Ms friendship. It is so today, as al­ ways. The Kingdom of Gcd needs men and women, but the raw hu­ man material found in or cut c-f the churches is tog shabby ar.d weak to build anything like the kingdom of God. Yet after all, it was never human weakness that has built the King­ dom. It is men re-bora, re-made by contact and companionship with Jesus the Lord of men . . . Now as then, Judas Is; among the Twelve. Jesus must have seen good in Ju­ das, otherwise it would have been mockery to choose him. But though that man was with Christ for just as long as the others, heard what they heard and saw what they saw, he ended by being a traitor. "Twelve immortals”—? Nay, but. one is the immortal betrayer and suicide. Why? The reason was in Judas, not In Jesus. But he wants volunteers, never forced labor: The Christ of Glory can be served by the humble; hut the free Christ can be served only by free men with open hearts. Ju­ das may keep his heart shut if he will; Christ never forces his way in. (Copyright by the International Coun­ cil of Religious Education on behalf of 40 Protestant denominations.

BROWN Writes W ith a Buckeye In Congress Two Congressional committees and several Government Depart­ ments became active last week in an attempt to stop the downward plunge of farm prices. Already a number of farm commodities are selling for less than one-half the price they brought a few short months ago. The drop in average farm commodity prices is some­ what over thirty per cent. Today the farmer is being badly squeez­ ed. His income has been mater­ ially reduced, while the things he must buy are still near peak prices. There is a real economic danger for the nation in the pres­ ent situation. Chairman Lesinski of the House Committee on Education and Labor is having difficulty in getting his bill, which would in­ crease the minimum wage to 75 cents an hour and expand cover­ age by amending the Wage and Hour Act, out of his Committee. The Lesinski Bill would not only increase the minimum wage rate from 40 cents an hour ~to:;-75cr hut would raIsb 'fe4uTfe almost every small service industry, such as local laundries and tele­ phone exchanges, to pay the mini­ mum, rate. In addition, and of great importance to the nation’s agriculture, the minimum wage rate would apply to most farm labor, or to the “hired hand.” VJith only nine votes against it, a hill to authorize the Presi­ dent to reorganize the Executive Branch of the Government passed the House last week. The mea­ sure would permit the President to submit his reorangization plans to the Congress, which would be­ come effective sixty days there­ after, unless the Congress offi­ cially disappx'oves them. The measure was enacted to imple­ ment the report of the so-called Hoover Commission, of which your reporter is a member. The recommendations and findings of the Hoover Commission—if put into effect—can: result in esti­ mated savings' to the taxpayers of three and one-half billion dol­ lars a year in Government oper­ ation. The House has approved qn Administration-sponsored bill to repeal the provisions of the Re­ ciprocal Trade Treaties Act voted by the Republican 80th Congress, and to restore the Act to its orig­ inal New Deal form which took away from the Tariff Commis­ sion all real power and author­ ity, and permitted the Secretary of State to negotiate secret tar­ iff treaties with foreign nations, subject to approval by the Presi­ dent. The Republican minority fought to no avail to preserve the portion of the law known as the "escape clause,” which would permit renegotiation of tariff treaties if the rates on foreign imports should be found so low as to endanger American pro­ duction or employment. _ Late last week the Republicans in the Senate, Committee on Edu­ cation and Labor, which has been considering Administration pro­ posed legislation to repeal the Taft-Hartley Act, won a tempor­ al y victory by forcing a eonitnu- ation of Committee hearings on the measure until February 23rd. There are many indications of a growing discontent in Congress with the Truman proposals to change the nation's labor laws, and it now appears likely a coali­ tion of Democrats and Republi­ cans may continue most of the important provisions of the pres­ ent Taft-Hartley Act in the law. The House Committee on Arm­ ed Services is expected to fight for an increase qf eight hundred million dollars, in appropriations for the Air Force to permit the maintenance of a seventy force air group. Chairman Vinson, who seemingly knows the Congress will not pass the President’s Uni­ versal Military Bill, wants to_ transfer the funds set up in the"* budget for such a program to the use of the Air Force. It looks as i f the House, at least, will go along with him. I t is understood that President Truman will soon send the Con­ gress a so-called national secur­ ity hill which will authorize the President to exercise strict con­ duction and allocation of raw materials and finished products, labor unions, strikes, corpora­ tions, and the dissemination of news in case of war or a de­ clared national emergency based on the threat of war. It should be understood that once such a law becomes effective the nation would be a virtual dictator state. That wars, and preparation for wars, cost a ereat deal of money is becoming more and more evi­ dent. In addition to the 14.5 bil­ lion dollar item in the President’s budget for the Army, Navy and Air Force, those in charge of our military plans will probably ask for an additional 8.5 billion dol­ lars of public funds to he spent on experimentation, stockpiling of strategic materials, and for arm­ ing of friendly nations, including those who may join the proposed North Atlantic Defense Pact. The cost of taking care of the veter­ ans of past wars now stands at about six and one-half billion dollars a year, with a heavy in­ crease in expenditures for vet­ erans expected in the not too distant future. In addition the interest on the public debt, a; large portion of ;tyhich-wa 3 ATW curred because of the war, a- mounts to more than five billion dollars a year. Lowell Fress Writes from the Legislature The so-called Ferguson law which forbids government em­ ployees to strike was repealed Tuesday after an hoftr and a half debate. The-law was enacted grettable that any group of leg- two years ago. I t is indeed xe- islators would let the fear of the loss of votes at the next election govern their actions on an issue of this importance. To me, strik­ ing against the government bor­ ders on treason. We hope that Governor Lausche will veto the measure, should it pass the Sen­ ate. A resolution proposing an a- mendment to the constitution to .he voted on in November, author­ izing a forty million dollar bond issue to provide funds for a new State fairground, was introduced. A property tax would be levied to redeem the bonds. Other bills introduced include: To permit Christian Science practitioners to charge fees for their healing services; to extend the period be­ tween the notice of divorce and hearing by the Court from six weeks to six months and set up only three grounds for divorce instead of nine; abolish common law marriage and extend the five day waiting period between ap­ plication and issuance of mar­ riage license to 30 days; an ap­ propriation of ?31,500,000 for new schools, repairs and school buss­ es; compulsive motor vehicle in­ spection and increase of jurors’ fees from $5 to $8 a day. Hearings on the Oleo Bill are practically complete. Much has been said on both sides of the argument in the current butter- Oleo controversy. I believe that i t can be boiled down,,to the fol­ lowing. Those in favor of colored oleo are basing the fight on cheaper living costs. Those op­ posed are protesting the unfair competition practiced by the Oleo interests and believe that there should be some restriction on the immense possible profits of the Oleo manufacturers. The atheist may doubt*"the story of Eve but he has to admit the fact of Atom. Getting Around Cedarville s.ong called “Summertime.” Fam­ ilies are raised and immensely enjoyed in life's summertime. Al- mostly painlessly we slip from summer to fall. We haven’t no­ ticed the change very much 'cause we’re too bugy Jivin. The children have grown up and left .to -start little nests of their own. There seems to be-“heaps” of time for sittin alone add thinking, just when a feller needs someone to chat with once in. a while. Like as not we become proud of grand­ pas and grandmas long about this time of life. Then the snow falls. It seems a little harder to get around each passing day. The younger generation with their strange antics get on our nerves. Reminiscing comes quite easy and seems to dominate our thoughts and conversation. Peo­ ple claim were gettin old which we very well know ain’t true. We have reached life’s wintertime. God in his great wisdom may have planned our lives in sea­ sons. There, could be no more beautiful way than this. And to think these remarks were brought op by a small boy’s desire to play ball.
