White Rocks Take Honors White Rocks walked o ff with most o f the blue ribbons in the ■ state-wide Chickjen-of-Tomorrow Contest just cpncluded on the Ohio State University campus. White Rocks won all but one a t the blue, ribbons in the senior division of the district contests, and took both the junior and sen­ ior blue ribbons in the state fi­ nals. Don Smith, Spring; Valley town­ ship, won top state honors in the Junior division with his White Rocks. The average weight o f all cockerels in the winning entry in the state finals was just under four and. one-half pounds. Flies In Banis Lindane is the name given to a new high gamma' benzene hex- achloride that can be used ef­ fectively against flies in barns where DDT, or methoxychlor fails. It is sold as a wettable powder .carrying 25% BHC and is said to have no objectionable odor. The price is several times that o f DDT. This is a bad fly year and some dairymen are not getting as good control this year as in 1947, op 1948 with either DDT, or methoxychlor. Ther problem is aggravated, by poor sanitation a- bout barns and the dairyman not able to use DDT on the dairy cow3. A new batch of flies is brought in each milking time with the cows. European Corn Borer Second brood corn borer eggs were being laid late in July. An­ other generation o f corn borer larvae will become*established in ’ both j;ield and sweet corn during August. Some injury to late sweet corn can be expected. Serious damage is not expected to field corn in Ohio, but in central Illi­ nois, Iowa, southern Minnesota and Wisconsin they expect very heavy damage. Remove Straw From Seedings A hazard to meadows that has recently developed is injury that is likely to occur where too much straw, stubble or weed residues is left bn the ground after harvest­ ing the small grain with which the meadow seeding was made. This injury is related more to the subsequent dying of the red clover than it is; to alfalfd or • timothy damage. Experiments at • the Ohio: Station indicate that of the entire year may be those some of the most profitable hours spent in clipping and removing the straw and stubble sometime during the month after combin­ ing. Houses for Children Only O. W .Fisher is a man who loves children. The head o f an uphol­ stering company, is taking over 60 new houses in Newark. And, in view o f his owp five children^ Fisher says only those families with children, will be able to rent from him. WASHINGTON REPORT By SENATOR ROBERT A. TAFT; P RESIDENT Truman’s recent Economic Report and radio address make it clear that he has only one solution for every economic difficulty o f the nation— more speeding by the Federal government. He was for it when we were threat­ ened with inflation and he’s for it now when we’re threatened with deflation. He insists that Congress should not cut a cent off the budget o f a thousand Fed­ eral activities, and he insists that the necessity o f government spend ing is enough to justify every pro ject. Huge gov­ ernment spend­ in g has from the b eg in n in g been one o f the e s s e n tia l fe a ­ tures o f his 1949 o v e r -a ll p r o ­ gram designed to fo llow th e labor-socia list government .of England into a t o t a l i t a r i a n state, directing the life and activity of every citizen. There’s little doubt now that the people are concerned. They don’t want more taxes. They don’t want to see the budget go over the $40 billion figure, which seems so tre­ mendous for federal spending in peacetime. But the President in addition to a budget of $42 billion, which is $8 billion more than he spent in 1947 under a Republican. Congress, has urged Congress to adopt other measures increasing this to almost $60 billion annually. Of these extra proposals, the Brannan farm plan In its full development might cost $6 billion a year in subsidies, so­ cialized medicine would cost an­ other $6 billion, and universal mili­ tary training another $4 billion. Even without these extra pro­ posals, our total .national tax burden, including taxes collected by states and local governments, today stands at $60 billion a year. It means that we all work, on an average, more than one day in every four for the govern­ ment. Such a burden increases prices for all consumers, kills the Incentive of Individuals, and par­ ticularly discourages those who want to start new businesses and create new jobs. • * * M R. TRUMAN is indignant at -the 81at Congress as he was at the 80th Congress for only one reason: because it will not approve his idea o f a government under­ taking to do the spending for its citizens which they would like to do fo r themselves, and undertaking to direct all the details of the bil­ lions o f transactions which occur each week in the United States. Mr. Truman denounces Congress because it believes In a system as­ suring liberty to our people; be­ cause it believes that we have be­ come the greatest nation in the world only because of that liberty; * because Congress will not abandon the free system which has produced the high production, the high national income and the high standard of living, o f which he boasts. Excessive taxation is about as certain a w a y to socialize the country as any other way. We have come to a point where we must determine the limit of our tax burden and then cut our ex­ penses to meet our income and pay something on the national debt. Every individual in this country has to give up things he would like to have because he hasn’t got the money to pay for them. The government is no different from any individual. It is complete nonsense to say that the government cannot cut its expense. There’ is not a bureau in Washington which couldn’t cut out 10% of its per­ sonnel and be more efficient. An average 10% reduction would balance the budget. * * * T HE welfare o f the world de­ pends more than any one thing on the prosperity of the United States. To recover from the pres­ ent'recession and to assure con­ tinued prosperity, the first firm foundation must be a solvent effi­ cient government. The present Congress is not a negative Congress, although its greatest merit will be that it has prevented measures which would change the whole nature of our government. Congress is fighting for the cause o f free government; for equality in the relation of labor and management, for equality in the treatment of farmers and city folk, for prosperity and full em­ ployment through sound fiscal and credit policies,, and for the liberty o f our farmers, workmen, business­ men and housewives to live their lives as they want to live them.- it HEW TWO-YEAR POLIO POLICY (Not one year - but two) C overs e v e r y m em b e r o f the fam ily—B oth pa ren ts a n d a ll ch ild r en fr om 3 m on ths t o 18 y ea rs o f a g e $5,000FOR EACHCASE Insuran ce b eg in s imm ed ia te ly .

Box 504 Telephone 2377 LettheWomenDotheWork HasBeentheThemeSongAlways “ Let the women do the work!” That has been the song & dance theme down through the ages. The stone-age man, with his heavy club cudgled his weaker- sex /Oh, yeah!) companion into bringing in the fond, cooking it and feeding him, while he stood around with his fellows in a cave and talked big! The practice has never been entirely abandoned. From figures being handed out by the labor department down in WDC it looks like the practice is being revived. Listen to the figures: The number of employed U, S. women increased from 16,602,000 in May 1948 to 17,173,000 in May this year. But in the same period the number of men at work drop­ ped from 42,058,000 to 41,521,000. Take th6" figures on the total labor force—the total of men and women both working and seek­ ing work. The nation’s labor force increased from 60.422.000 in May 1948 to 61,983,000 in May 1949. Among men the increase in that period was only 1.4%. Among women the increase was 5.5%. Women constituted only 18 per­ cent o f the total labor force in 1900. They were 29% o f the la­ bor force last May. Twenty per­ cent o f w.omen of 14 and older were gainfully employed in 1900. Last May 31% of them had jobs. In a few words o f explanation the department says that men are staying in school longer since the war, in preparation fo r ca­ reers in various professions. . . and the women find that by get­ ting a 'job and, earning money they can have many things they couldn’t . buy before. Time was when a “working gal” wasn’t accented 100% by her ilk. Nowadays she doesn’t “ rate” until she has a job. And by working and being paid a weekly stipend the woman dis­ covers she has a new source o f revenue from which to buy the thousand and one (million and ond, perhaps) things she couldn’t afford, and she can “ Oh, yeah" her lord and .master about who’s pqying for what for whom.

A non-partisan committee is seeking signers all over Ohio _to a petition 'for a vote in Novem­ ber on the Massachusetts ballot system for Ohio. The campaign to change the ballot is backed by a group of Republicans. They intend to make Ohioans, .vote for the candidate ’ instead of the party.. It is the opinion of observers that the movement is aimed at preventing popular Gov, Frank «]. Lausche. from “ carrying” lesser-known party candidates into office. Leaders of the movement for the short-and-easy ballot point out that it is superior to the pres­ ent long-and-confusing ballot be­ cause;... It. wiil- retain party labels, but give all parties and groups equal position. It will prevent candidates from riding into office on the popu­ larity,of another candidate. * I t will encourage parties to pre­ sent good candidates for each of­ fice. It will. eliminate straight bal­ loting and give electors a better chance to vote intelligently. It will save space and there­ fore allow all candidates and all issues to appear on the same bal­ lot. GrainDollar BuysLessNow ThanFormerly That grait). dollar isn’t as big as it was a year ago. K. D.. Peterson, extension spec­ ialist in grain marketing, says that a farmer to pay off a $1,000 . debt last year, required 459 bush­ els of wheat. This year it takes takes 513 bushels^.. The same picture holds for corn. Last year the $1,000 debt could be paid o ff with 461 bush- l*i=Vio1s for fbe same debt, els of corn. Now it would take S20 Peterson says the story on soy­ beans is about comparable to corn. While it took only 261 bushels of soybeans to pay for the $1,000 debt a year ago—now it .would take 461 bushels. To state the facts in another LUXEMBOURG MINISTER VISITS PLAYHOUSE • < , Mrs, Perle Mesta, new U.S. minister to Luxem­ bourg, stands with her niece, Betty Tyson, and other members of the “ strawhatcircnit” during her visit to the Westport (Conn.) Country Playhouse during her visit to see her niece perform in the role of a French maid in “ Yes, My Darling Daughter.” Left to right are Miss Tyson in maid’s uniform; Mrs. Mesta; Ann Harding, star of the show; and Lawrence Langner, founder of the theatre guild and owner of the playhouse. Mrs. Mesta recently was sworn Into her new office by Vice President Barkley. The appointment of a woman minister caused some diplomatic comment. ^ way—to pay o ff the $1,000 debt this year, it will take 54 bushels more wheat, 359 bushels more corn or 100 bushels more soy­ beans. Court Rules in "Brown Election Judge James Collier, of Iron- ton, handed down a decision hold­ ing Miss Dorothy Kennedy was the duly elected prosecuting at­ torney of Brown county. She wins the office after eight months of litigation. With no party nominee on the ballott at the*election last Novem­ ber, Miss Kennedy's name was written in and she received.more votes than Angus B. Wilson, who was on the ballot as an independ­ ent candidate. Wilson protested her election on the grounds that (he law in force at the time, made no pro­ vision for writing in names at a general election. Judge Collier, assigned to Georgetown to hear the case, up­ held Wilson’s contention and de­ clared him elected, but was re­ versed by the Ohio Supreme Court. Judge Collier then heard Wil­ son’s claims that many of the bal- ots for. Miss Kennedy had no X marks and that her name had been written in various forms. Judge Collier overruled these ob­ jections and held her elcted.
