Sidelights On Local History
BY otanbery Alderman

Having reported the meeting of
the constitutional convention we
have finished with the Northwest
Territory, and VIII now take up
coun.y rs natural resources and
items pertaining to lis history that,
while they may have been related by
others, yet it has been some time
since any CT it appeared i'll print
and should have knowledge OF
our own county and state before we
go to study of our national his
tory.
Morgan county is one Of the
smaller counties Of our state Its
area is about 400 square miles or
256,000 acres. Located in the south
eastern part OF the state among the
hills it is divided nearly in haif by
the Muskingum river, 'The hudson
et the vest as it is sometimes call :.
ed Fer natural scenic beauty few
counties in the state equal it and
none excel it. Since the completion
OF the highway from GAINESVILLE tc
Marietta, each year sees more ard
more travellers pass through and ali
are agreed that more picturesque
seen y is seldom found.
OQf SON Is HOGtiy q limestone Tor
nation adapted to small grains and
fruits in years gone past this valley
was noted Tor the production Of
wheat from which sEch fine flour
was made w oaI lccai mills that
MusEInalm N valley flour was as well
known fn the markets OF New Or

as is The minneapolis flour OF today.
III fact when the -four from the
northwest was first marketed at
New Orleans it would not sell until
they tooE 4 label from Muskingum
valley mill and rebranded it. To
day, hoWeyer. wheat production has
declined unUl there is not enough
wheat raised in the county to main

quantities to maintain several pack

FOR EXCISE TAX ON IMPORTS

There is considerable sentiment
among members of the new Congress
Tor an amendment to the Tariff Act,
providing for the payment of an eX-
cIse tax on imports of dutiable goods
railing below the American cost of
production. 1t is recognized that
such legislation as the Wage-Hour
Act and our Social Security program
operate to Increase American costs
OF production, and the purpose of
these measures is to raise the Amer
lean standard of living.
But it is recognized that if we
continue to receive imports from
countries with sub standard labor
conditions and lower costs of produc-
ton than those that prevail in the
United States, the result infallibly
will be to surrender the American
market to an increasing extent to
cur foreign competitors.
For many years, the theory un-
derlying our tariff system has been
TO impose such rates of duty as
would equalize the cost of produc-
tion at home and abroad. The orig
mai draft of the Wage-Hour Bill
sock cognizance of this fact and it
AAi1ihdCd % pl lOflolOH WHICH at l9aST
made gesture toward protecting
the American market against compe-
ution from countries where sub
standard labor conditions prevail:
but before the bill was enacted, this
necessary provision was stricken out.
Under the plan that is now under
consideration, importers of dutiable
GOODS would be required to make an
affidavit that the landed costs of any
shipment of commodities competing
with the products of American
farms and factories did not fall be.
low the selling price in American
markets, or to pay an excise tax to
equalize the difference in costs.
This would not apply to commod-
tiles on the free list nor to products
that are not available in commercial
quantities in the United States
There is growing feeling in farm
and labor circles throughout the
country that some such plan as has
been outlined is necessary to enable
American producers to hold their
own under the cost-raising legisla-
tion that has been enacted during
recent years.-NationaI Grange Clip
