PRESENTS PROPOSAL TO AID
EMPLOYMENT IN U. S.

By Times Booster.
The Presidents work relief pro-
gram is designed to put the unem-
ployed to work on public work prof.
ectS. This, Of course, would be a
sensible idea if every one on relief
were already absorbing all the nor
NAL requirements of life, such as
are produced on the farm or in
factories. Just why these millions
should not be put to work in the
normal production channels, to pro-
duce the goods they want, but do
not have, is still a mystery.
Why go around Robin Hoods
barn to pay these unemployed
wages at $50 or less a month on
public work instead of having the
orders for the goods these people
want sent direct to the producers,
so that they might employ these
people to create them? Those orders
ought not to be for $50 worth OF
goods for each family each month
or less, but for $3.50 for all on re-
lief, so that every one would find
employment creating these goods.
Why stabilize poverty and unem-
ployment when We ought to abolish
both? The work relief program
does not do that.
Any one who expects to prime the
pump Ct business by sprinkling $50
a Z month or less as purchasing
power for a family, does not want
to really start the wheels of indus
try. This dribble of consuming
power will be burned UP without
soaking the business soil.
No manufacturer Of goods would
refuse production orders from the
government. The unemployed are
not in financial position to place
the orders for the goods they want.
And the relief wage to be
"sprinkled" over the year, will only
place greater debt burdens on the
future, unless the industries get the
orders, with which they may return
unemployed to work.
Why permit cotton textiles to
slow down while all those on relief
don't have one-third enough textile
products for their own use, or shoes
and every other item for an
American living standard? Why
make relief a permanent institu-
ton? A 10-billion- dollar order for
goods to the producers would stop
the necessity for relief. A govern
ment order for $500 worth of goods
for each family on relief would
start every wheel turning and
abolish Unemployment now.

The situation in Marion County
politics is very confusing to every
body, 1t prevents the voters get
ting what they vote for. 1t can
only be cleared up by a certain
local newspaper coming out bold
ly, honestly and Loyalty to dis
charge its just political obliga-
lions.
Our local Republican newspa-
per owes very great obligation
to Rep. Louis Ludlow. It is a
great one because Mr.. Ludlow has
devoted himself with singleness
of purpose to the particular in
terests of business men, upon
whose approval and support the
newspaper depends for it's exist
ence. This paper is in position
to insure either reelection or de-
feat of Mr.. Ludlow. If it remains
silent, the result will be wide
open split in the Republican vote,
because Mr.. Ludlow will be forced
to run as an independent candi-
date and there is no man in Mar
ion County who could split the
Republican vote quite SO wide
open as Mr.. Ludlow.
There can be only one result
from that-the election of a Dem
ocrat pledged to support the New
Deal. The normal Republican ma
Jority is not sufficient to over
come such handicap.
What is the obligation this
newspaper owes to our Democratic
Congressman Louis Ludlow? He
has supplied it exclusively with
column after column of the most
effective anti-New Deal material
the more effective because it
came from a Democrat. The sub
Ject matter has always justified
the most violent anti-Administra-
ton headlines. The newspaper
has eagerly accepted Mr.. Ludlow's
offerings and it should be lust as
eager to support him Loyalty as
the nominee on the Republican
ticket for Congress.

STATE SHOULD HANDLE
ASSETS IN BANKS.

I would like to ask if there are
any assets for former depositors?

continue indefinitely? How often
does the receiver report to the

Are the stockholders liable to as

more interested in getting dollars

The state appoints examiners to
safeguard depositors. Should not the
state be obliged to pay these de-

in safeguarding by not reporting the
