Governor WagesWaron Racketeers In an open war with gamblers and racketeers, Governor Frank J. Lausche has said that his cam­ paign is not against small-time betters but aimed at big-time racketeers who set out deliber­ ately to break the laws. Speaking at Proctorville the executive said, that he had heard that racketeers who have been operating in Ironton in a big way have moved to Huntington, W . YA., up the river 20 miles. The governor is not stepping in, it is understood, in such cases as reported to Cincinnati police one day last week. A westerner told bow a man had met him on a side street aq,d playfully matched pen­ nies until the pennies grew to dimes and quarters and dollars. A confederate rushed up, shout­ ing “ Police!” The men fled—and when the “ sucker” came back his money and the men were gone!

Sales, too, were up over $150 million. Peele Asks for Storage Facilities Robert £eele, Sabina, presi­ dent o f the Ohio Farm Bureau, has appealed to secretary o f agri­ culture Brattaan fo r aid in pro­ viding additional storage space fo r grain. Declaring that "Ohio farmers are taking 35 cents a bushel less for their wheat than the govern­ ment support price because there is no storage space,” Peele wired the national head man o f agri­ culture, Village Has Church A fter 100 Years Willetsville is a tiny town in Highland county.

Dieselman Has Heart Attack Diesel engineer Steve Puckett, at the helm of 80-car No. 99, westbound Columbus to Cincin­ nati, suffered a heart attack be­ tween Columbus and Washington 0. H. Thinking he had indiges­ tion, he stayed at the throttle un- . til the train reached Washington where the company doctor gave him first-aid heart treatment to which he responded quickly, it is said. The new-type diesel locomotives are equipped with “ dead man” devices, so that the train stops immediately when the engine- man releases his foot from the ac­ celerator.

SalesHolding UpinGreene RecordsShow Greene county is among the three southern Ohio counties that showed an increase in sales of prepaid tax receipts for the week ending July 16. The other coun­ ties were Fayette and Ross. Clinton, Madison, Highland and Pickaway counties showed de­ creases. OSU analyst Prof. James Yo­ cum explains that the “ good show­ ing in comparison with last year is not universal, jiine sales of automobiles, filling station busi­ ness and heating and plumbing sales were ahead of 1948, and jewelry stores, and combination grocery stores joined the increase of business list.” Dollar volume declines are be­ ing noted -in men’s wear lines and department stores, due to lower prices and not to number of pur­ chases. Two and three days a week for many employes and layoffs either temporary or permanent are af­ fecting the tills of merchants, and food stores everywhere. But a general view of the picture, as sales indicate, is anything but bad in Greene county and in our own community. TaxDuplicate Equalization BecomesLaw The governor has signed the bill passed by the legislature^ to equalize tax duplicates of Ohio’s 88 counties. It becomes effective in 90 days. The law, one of 71 of the 110 measures sent to. the governor, will permit the state board, when it discovers a county tax values are too low or too high, to order that county’s auditor to make a readjustment. If the auditor refuses to com­ ply within 90 days, the board can order the state auditor to with­ hold up 50 percent of the state subsidies due the county until the order is complied with locally. The legislature allotted $125,- 000'a year for the next two years to the state tax division to try to equalize the county tax dupli­ cates. Mack Sauer Sails <£t Missouri Country editor Mack Sauer, Leesburg Citizen owner, sailed Wednesday, from Norfolk, on the USS Missouri, as a guest of the United States Navy for a cruise that includes on its course the Mediterranean, the Caribbean and the bounding main o f the Atlan­ tic. For some time the Navy has .been taking newspapermen -as guests similar cruises, the pur­ pose being to acquaint them with world situations and the Navy's preparations to meet them. Corn Storage Is Being Requested Corn storage 'is %\n anticipated problem in Greene county. Of the 261,000 bushels stored from the 1948 crop and only some 10,000 bushels liquidated, the matter of storage space for the new crop presents a serious prob­ lem. Delmar Bone o f the Greene county Triple-A estimates that space for storing perhaps 200,- 000 bushels will be required for the 1949 crop. Instructions have been received, to- lease warehouse space. . -'a V: taking advantage of sunny and comfortable weather for the pre­ view. Continued good weather Monday encourage.d mqre and more to take in the “ free day” before the formal opening. Variety- of displays, including livestock, f a r m produce and ClintonCounty FairBigEvent OfAugust7-12 Wilmington has the Welcome mat out for the Clinton county fair, whcich presents 3 brand-new idea for fairs with a Sunday af­ ternoon and evening program, July 7. “ These programs will be ap­ propriate for the day and the event,” an official of the fair announces. Premiums for all classes of en­ tries ai> more than $1,200 higher than last year, this year’s total premiums being $18,147.60 com­ pared to $16,945 last year. Pre­ miums for various divisions are as follows: Speed, $10,200; cattle, $2,323.50; swine, $1,510; sheep, $726; poultry, $318.50; fruit and other farm products, $341.75; canned goods, etc., in floral hall, $100; 4-H club' premiums, $2,- 000; grange^ $430, As in the past the agricultural society makes a feature of 4-H club exhibits, and this year’s total premiums of $2,000 indicates the sponsorship practically. THREE DAIRY SHOWS The two dairy shows that the fair held in the past are increased to three this year, with premiums of $500 offered in each class. The schedule of this depart­ ment is Aryshire show, Tuesday; Guernsey on Wednesday and Jer­ sey on Thursday. SPEED PROGRAM Racing is scheduled for four afternoon;?, bgginning Tuesday, when one of t|ie three events is the 2-year-old trot, with a purse of $1,000. Wednesday’s program at the track features the 3-year-old trot with $1,000 up, in addition to the 2:22 pace and the 2:22 trot. The 3-year-old pace, stake, is the big event of Thursday after­ noon, with both trotting and pac­ ing races in the 2:26 class. The $2,000 Ohio Pacing Derby is set for the third event on Fri­ day’s program, following the 2- year-old pace* stake, and the 2:17 trot. Livestock parades, starting gate, photo-finish for all races, a midway filled with entertain­ ment of the favored kind and every-night entertainment are an- nounced. Will Yote On Colored Oleo Voters of Ohio will pass on the colored died question at this fall’s election. Petitions carryin close to 227,- 000 signers have been filed with the secretary of state, three times the required number to make the placing of the matter on the bal­ lot obligatory. A bill was killed in the legist lature when it was presented in January. WeatherMan TurnsOffthe HeatforWeekend Like the moaning worshipers in the Orient who spend hours moving up and down saying “ Oom-oom-oom,” we home folk in Greene county are “ oom-oom- ing” our gratitude to the weather man. for a favorable wave of his hand over the week end. Tortured by intense heat for a fortnight, the zephyrs o f Satur­ day night and, Sjunday were as welcome as a neighbor bringin over ,n half freezer of home-made ice cream. Funny, isn’t it, how quickly it can change ? Our “ oom-ooms” include, too, a gratitude for the well-distri­ buted* showers during the hot wave. They kept the grass green and prevented what could easily have been parched fields and burned vegetation. It was a hot spell to go down in histpry, if anybody cares to take thf, tfottbl'e to record it; but, like all . other spells of weather, everybody’ . forgets all about - it within a few days. There is an ever-present today’s weather to talk about! FEWER BEES ' There a re . 5 % fewer Rees in Ohio than normal. a four-day matinee harness rac­ ing program, vieing for a record $20,184.05 in premiums are ex­ pected to hike the “ tone” of the fair. Harness racing — three races each of the four afternoons—will be for more than $10,000 in cash awards. Young’s starting gate from Waynesfield, O., will again bring •the starting wire, eliminating the pacers and trotters down to scoring delays which have pro­ longed many an afternoon o f rac­ ing. Paul McWilliams of Dayton will be presiding judge for the events over the local half-mile oval. These additional cash awards will be made: horse classes, $1,- 719; cattle, $1,603; sheep, $572; swine, $1,424; poultry, $452.30; rabbits, $258; .calves, $84; house­ hold arts, $646.25; horticulture, $253.25; prange, $687.50; juvenile Grange, $41.25; conservation, $83.50; boys’ and girls’ clubs, $1,- 800; vocational-agriculture, $500 and Girl Scouts, $5, and livestock .and float parade, $55. Because of last .year’s policy change—advancing deadlines for exhibits several days before open­ ing of the fair—the exposition ap­ pears better organized, and com­ mittee members are given more time in which to arrange their departments. This 'streamlining paid o ff handsomely from the standpoint of both exhibitors and spectators in 1948. The F, E. Gooding Amusement company, Columbus, takes the spotlight on the midway with a variety of rides; the Gus Sun Booking agency, Springfield, has arranged entertainment b o t h Thursday and Friday night; the 4-H club style show is set for Thursday evening; the popular saddle horse show is presented Tuesday and Wednesday nights; and many other .features, are planned. Admission for the fair remains unchanged at fifty cents, with children under 12 admitted free if accompanied by an adult. Au­ tomobiles are allowed on the grounds for another twenty-five cents. It will be the final fair for two veteran directors of the Greene County Agricultural society. B. U. Bell, Xenia, and Mrs. L. H, Jones, Yellow Springs, directors thirty and twenty-five years, re­ spectively, have declined to seek re-election to the board. Ernest Jenks, Silvercreek township, af­ ter serving one three-year term, also is retiring. ExpertShoes RaceHorses AtFairs J. H. Coleman hails from Lon­ don (Ohio, that is) and he is an expert horse-shoe artist - not a tosser in a game of horseshoes, but in designing and applying shoes to race horses. Race horses, as you know, are individuals. No two move alike, nor eat aljke, nor wear the same kind of shoes. It is J. H. Coleman’s life work to design the kind of shoes cer­ tain horses have to have to make for the most speed and comfort. * Making the shoes and putting them on race horses s more than sweat and brawn—it is a science backed by skill and know-how gained through the years in the tough school of experience. Sucqess of many a horse on the race track depends on the man who made and shod it. The shoes not only must fit; they must he the right weight and have the proper balance. Coleman travels the fair circuit through tht» season. He gets to know many of tlie horses and their pecularities, to know just where they need weight on their hoofs to keep their gaits smooth and fast, He takes all o f his equipment with him. Mounted on a light truck are his anvil and forage, ready for use in any emergency. They are set up in a tent when­ ever he locates for a fair. . A man of few words, Coleman ’tends strictly to business. He makes money, to be sure, for shoeing a race horse with the proper kind o f appliances as to toe-weights and balances, may run as high as $10 to $15. Shoes do not last long, either, on race race horses, and have to be watfih- ed constantly and carefully by both trainer and shoer. The one regret this artisan has is that there is no new crop of horse-shoers ' coming on. “Who's going to shoe horses in the fu­ ture?” he was asked. “W q H, J don’t know any young shoers com­ ing on. I suppose somebody will take it up, .hut he can't learn it over night/* he added.
