Mot being, to use the common
IN expression, two-faced, like to
say things to ones face, so I sit
down 10 tell the Star a fact or two,
which they dare not print. The fol-
lowing is as near as I can remem-
Der it.
Some years ago Woodrow Wilson
remarked, 1.-The man who discrim-
mates against the Jew is Americas
worst enemy"
Our Constitution stands for free
dom in religious and political be-
liefts. Now, some years ago, Henry
Ford, expressed his unwarranted
hatred for the Jew, and to top 1t
off, he recently informed mis- en-
ployes that he expected them to
vote the Republican ticket. Since
when has anyone been given that
right?
He has shown himself in his true
eolors. and, to my way Of think
ig, is a rotten sport, both politically
and religiously. Either he is trait
or to our country, or should be
placed in care of a highly trained
brain specialist
It may be fine idea for him TO
get hold of Teddy's big stick, and
station himself at the polls. I'd like
very much for him to go to Ireland
and tell his employees there to vote
for an Englishman.
Ford thinks so much Of his coun-
try and the Republican party that
1t wasn't even worth his while to
register for the coming election.
What a man!

7 SUMBIT the following side slants
i on President Hoover's character,
one of which l saw myself and the
other told to me by close friend.
At Rushville, when the presiden-
tial train stopped there last week,
a group of boys sitting on box car
near the station shouted, as the
President viewed the crowd: Hi,
Herbie! We're for you, Herble. "
Although they could be heard
easily the President gave no sign
OF recognition. Governor Candl-
date Springer, standing by the
President, waved to them to keep
still
When Mr.. Hoover had boarded his
train at the Union station mere
after making his speech at the But
Ter fieldhouse, he sat down with
friends and lighted a cigar. A por-
ter entered the compartment with
a tray bearing glasses OF orange
juice.
He did not notice the President,
who sat back of him, and offered
a glass first to a woman who sat
in the compartment. She refused
the first glass, motioning the porter
to the President. Mr.. Hoover saw
her motion, and graciously took the
first glass from the tray.

DOES the Republican party realiy
IL think it can make any voter
fear that manufacturers or Dig
business" will refuse to make all the
money they can, for even one
month by closing down, as spite
work II Hoover is defeated?
II turn about still is fair play
Uhv should Democrats continue
b,Iving the products of firms which
try to dictate how their employees
vote?
President Hoover continually says
Nhe vetoed some bill passed by the
Democratic house. Does he think we
don't understand that, before he
has a chance to veto any bill, 1t
must have also been passed by the
Republican senate?
Some blind" folks say We are in
mid-stream on a horse, but we are
in mid-ocean on a ship, sinking for
three years. If we don't change cap
tains we will surely sink, or have
"mutiny' -Bolshevism.
Isn't a laborer, farmer, or mid
dleclass voter. who asks for four
wears more of Hoover abuse, a hog
for punishment?

A LII, the Democrats are nuts
N and think Hoover brought on
the depression. We just are getting
over the effects Of the war that the
Democrats caused. What can
Hoover do when the Democrats pass
the bills over his head and then
blame Hoover? And if you want
prosperity and happiness, vote for
Mr.. Herbert c. Hoover. G. r.

n HAVE been a Republican all my
life. but when 1 heard Hoover
sll the people of this state Friday
NIGHT to send Jim Watson back TO
the senate, knowing, as all the peo-
ME of this state know, of jim Wat
SONS sugar deal, I can't help Won
dering If Hoover was not embar-
raised, especially after Watson said,
when he came home to start his
campaign, that he was not going to
carry Hoover on his back, that Wat
son thought that Hoover would be
a liability to him?
When Watson saw his political
hide hanging on the fence, he and
others kept the wires hot between
indianapolis and the White House
and urged Hoover to be in Indian
apolis on the same night that Mr..
Ritichie was here. The S. o. S. was
sent out several times. at last Hoo
yer came.
4 SO can imagine that when Mr..
Hoover got back to Washington he
said, Well, that is that If I did
