Swan Says 6,3S3
Dog Tags Sold

w. K. Swan, Butler County auditor
reported this week that a total of
6,383 dog tags had been sold through
his office and the Middletown and OK
ford branch offices up to the deadline
last Friday. Total receipts were
$7,585.50.
Mr.. Swan expressed disappointment
at the decrease in the sale which
usually totals between 5000 and 10000
tags. II tried my best to induce dog
owners to buy tags for their pets on
time and those who failed to comply
will now be required to pay penalty
of 81 in addition to the cost of the
tag" he said.
The Hamilton office sold 4,095 tags
and had receipts of SAIL. The Mid
dletown branch sold 1,842 tags and
collected $2,136. Oxford reported sale
of 446 tags and collections of $498
In addition, license fees were collected

PRESIDENT ASKS
SOCIAL SECURITY
BENEFITS TO ALL

Washington, D. C. (ILNS) Telling
Congress that the Social Security Act
last year paid nearly billion dollars
of benefits to those who need it most,
President Roosevelt asked House and
Senate to extend the benefits of that
act more and more, "to all our people
as rapidly as administrative expert
ence and public understanding will
permit"
81 cannot too strongly" he said
urge the wisdom of building upon
the principles contained in the pres
ent Social Security Act in affording
protection to our people, rather than
turning to untried and demonstrably
unsound panaceas."
This reference to panaceas probably
is due to the fact that quite num-
Der of members of Congress indorsed
during their campaigns some variant
of the Townsend plan.
Recommendations Approved
The message accompanied a report
of the Social Security Board, and in
dorses directly or indirectly the rec
concentrations of that report. Among
these suggestions are:
That monthly payments in old age
benefits begin in 1910, not wait till
1912.
That monthly benefits in early years
be increased.
That federal aid be liberalized to
states with small taxable property.
That each state put in civil service
as precedent to its federal aid.
"This act has amply proved its
soundness," said the President
more than two and one-half mil
lion needy old people, needy blind
persons and dependent children are
now receiving systematic and humane
assistance to the extent of a half-bil-
lion dollars a year.
Millions of Idle Helped
"Three and half million unem-
ployed persons have received out-of-
work benefits amounting to $400,000,-
900 during the last year.
"a federal old-age insurance sys-
tenn, the largest undertaking of its
kind ever attempted, has been organ
lied, and under it there have been set
up individual accounts covering A.
100000 persons.
''In addition there are the splendid
accomplishments in the field of public
health, vocational rehabilitation, ma
services, made possible by the Social
Security Act"

fendant manufacturers deceive the
public by stamping shoes made by
them with shield having a drawing
of shoe in the center similar to the
official union label. At the top are
the words "union-made" and at the
bottom the number of the factory
shown in similar manner to the
union label of the Boot and Shoe
Workers Union which was registered

Army OF Sharecroppers
Leave Homes To Protest
Landlords Pay Policy

New Madrid, Mo. (ILNS).-Several
hundred sharecropper families, both
white and colored, left their homes and
scattered along U. S. Highways go
and 81, in southeast Missouri in the
second week of January. There were
more than 1000 persons in these fam
lilies, and they were camped along the
roads for nearly 100 miles.
These families were rescued from
the floods two years ago, and they
moved off their tenant-holding be-
cause the landlords want to shift from
tenant labor to day labor to avoid
sharing government payments with
the tenants.
Gov. Stark has asked the Social Sc
curity administrator to share the state
superfuous food stores with the share
troopers, but they will have no share
of the cash payments.

MOSCOW. Oct. 7.-Reliable
though unofficial sources said today
Soviet Russia, through her deal
with Germany. apparently had real
lied two objectives for which she
might have fought on the side of
Great Britain and France.
These were concessions in the
Baltic and the right to send her
armies into the Polish Ukraine and
White Russia, areas on the Soviet
side of the German-Russian frontier
drawn through conquered Poland.
A British-French plan to use So
Wet Russia as base of operations
in defense of Poland, these sources
said, failed because of a breakdown
in military talks here last August
as a result of the Russian demands
Proposed Supplies Go to Russia.
Great Britain and France, they
said, had proposed sending large
supplies, warplanes and troops to
Russia in preparation for going
quickly to Poland's aid in the event
Of the war which then had not
started.
Poland, they reported, had argued
that British and French aircraft
should not be shipped to Polish ter
ritory in peacetime lest Germany be
provoked. AS an alternative, these
sources declared, it was proposed
that the airplanes be sent to Odessa,
Soviet port on the Black Sea, and
from there distributed along Russia's S
Western border.

Baltic Concessions and Troops in Polish
Areas Achieved on Side of Hitler

Russia, they said, wanted guaran-

on her own soil and that she be per-
mitted to send armies into White
Russia and the Polish Ukraine, re-
gions of former Poland that border
on the U. S. S. r. They said she
also wanted concessions in the Baltic
which Britain and France were un-
willing to grant.
Formal War Avoided.
Now, through her treaty with Ger
many establishing a frontier in
former Poland, she has regained
White Russia and the Polish Ukraine.
Through non-aggression treaties
with Estonia and Latvia she has
won concessions in the Baltic. Both
have been accomplished without
formal war.
Russia was expected to resume
talks over the week end with Lithu-
ania and Turkey, continuing her
policy of spreading her influence in
Eastern Europe through "negotia-
tion and neutrality"
