Editor, The Times-Ncws:
When the illusions, deluslonS
and collisions of the New Deal
shall have run their course, when
we come back to the American
system of government, we can es-
innate the financial loss and the
dishonest burden Of debt passed
on to future generations IN tens
of billions of dollars.
However staggering this amount
NAV be, it will be small compared
to the moral and spiritual loss to
the nation through the New Deal
The loss of that spirit Of free
dom, pride and independence
which scorns help and demands
Glands off,; that thrill of adven-
ture in working out ones own
destiny; that zest for contest IN
achievement, asking only for a
"fair field and no favors"-this Is
the American spirit, summed up
in the words, rugged individual
ISM" which has made US the
greatest nation in the world.
This spirit which is our great
est asset is being crushed and de-
stroyed by the New Deal. 1t
sneeringly calls it ragged mdl-
vidualism,' and has passed laws
to rob us of our individual rights
under the constitution.
But the Supreme court has de-
clarcd these laws to be unconsti-
tutional.
Fooled at coercion, the New
Deal is educating our young men
to depend on, and to demand gov
crnment help! 1t is now democrat
ling nearly half of our pOpula-
ton with the dole in different
forms. The dole so abhorrent to
the American spirit, is now being
demanded as the peoples right.

turc will demand to live on the

AN OPEN LETTER TO MORGAN
COUNTY VOTERS

MR.. CITIZEN AND VOTER =
Four years ago when | was a candi-
date for the office of County Engi-
neer | was regularly nominated on
the Republican ticket at the May
primary, and at the election was
successful to the office I aspired.
When | went into office in Janu-
airy, 1888, the county had $40 miles
of county road to maintain with
gasoline receipts as in the past of
S54, 900 annually. Then by Legisla-
ton, one cent of this gasoline mon
ey was taken for school purposes
which reduced the receipts for Coun-
ty Road Maintenance to $4,000.
Now in this time and during my
term of office there has been ap-
proXimately 120 miles additional
traffic bound County Roads to main
tain with a decrease of $4,000 in

gasoline receipts.

gasoline receipts.
Maintenance expenditure on coun-
ty roads means all equipment con-
sisting of trucks, maintainers, en-
gineer's automobile, up-keep and re-
pair of same, small tools, etc, all
material added to roads, and all la
Dor cost that are attached to these
county roads.
The gasoline receipts used for all
the things mentioned in the above
paragraph excepting resurfacing ma
terial, consumes approximately $4I
per mile of road leaving approxi-
mately $50 per mile for resurfacing.
This amount as you can see even
though alphabetical labor is used for
the processing of the resurfacing
material which will then cost more
than 81 per cubic yard which means
less than so cubic yard of material
per mile OF road per year. Resur-
facing at the rate of ESQ cubic yards
per mile at a cost Of more than S25O
per mile means this, about five times
more than each mile can receive per
year or on the other hand resur-
face every five years.
Now with these facts in mind and
all of you VOTERS remember that
last winter was unprecedented TO
this locality since the coming of the
automobile. Have you voters forgot
1885 summer floods and all the un-
usual maintenance that accompany
high waters? Of course you remem-
ber how most of the roads in Nor
gan county were closed by high wa
ter about one week. Did these floods
require any money for road repairs?
Yes, as charged by some in our
county / have cooperated and work
ed with these various alphabets dur
ing the last three years. This, at
times has been a difficult task, be-
cause of such a varied program.
have kept in mind at all times the
boundary lines of Morgan county,
trying to do what was best for ALL
as a whole within this boundary and
not for select few. By strenuous
efforts and cooperation with the

FRED SMITH AND HIS RECORD
AS COUNTY SURVEYOR

AS a man he is courteous, indus
trious and a square shooter.
The writer has known him to
spend several nights at hard work
in his office after strenuous days
work, and go to Walkers restaurant
at O'Clock in the morning and get
his breakfast, and no extra compen-
sation by saving the county several
dollars in extra office help. He has
been ever ready to build and main
| tain roads to get all the people out
of the mud. He has just recently
completed a piece of road that will
net the state saving of about sixty
dollars ($60.0O) per year in school
bus transit of children to school bus
routes. AS to his ability as sur
| veyor his work speaks of his quail
fcations. Voters, consider grades,
drainage, width and surfacing as to
his predecessors work who is clam
+, oring for his defeat.
Let us look at his record and see
what the state auditor says about
his office. Under comment of John
Whitney, state examiner, as of jan
uary, 1895, discloses the following
information:
Careful examination discloses that
Mr.. Smith has properly conducted
his office and has faithfully per-
formed all duties imposed by law on
county surveyors.
Z If you did not see anything else
at our county fair you surely saw
what improvement he made on our
fair grounds.
The writer is under no obligations
to Smith in any way, never received
a dime of county funds, nor has any
promise been made by Mr.. Smith
to him, that he ever would. l am a

HOUSING PLAN
HELD WEAK

The immediate housing need
is for a clear cut legislative pro-
gram, which would include q
permanent Federal housing
agency with responsibility and
means to carry through o long
term program Of low rental
housing, according to statement
today by representatives of the
building trades unions Of the A.
r. Of L. and the Labor Housing
Conference.
The statement said that "de-
spite all rosy talk Of q building
BOOM" figures from the Bureau
Of Labor Statistics show that the
United States has not attained
one-fifth Of the average level Of
residential production Of the
1920'S. Since 1892. about one
third Of the building trades work
ers have been unemployed, and
"even the Federal Housing Ad-
ministration. In spite Of its bally-
hoo about low cost housing, has
only stimulated q small amount
Of actual construction, and all
this has reached only the upper
income groups"
A program was agreed by the
conference, providing for q per-
manent Federal housing agency,
a clear-cut system Of Federal sub
sides, local initiative, coopera-
ton and responsibility in housing
construction, and the exaction Of
adequate standards in all pub
licly assisted housing projects.
