Credit Problem Solution
Offered at Assn. Dinner

Credit associations and
bureaus offer the solution
to the credit extension and
collection problems of the
retail merchants in Ameri-
ca" was a statement of DR..
Felix Held to the annual
dinner meeting of the New
ark Merchants Credit as
sociation held in Granville
Inn Tuesday night.
DR.. Held pointed out that the
merchants credit problems rest
ed not in the small percentages
of non-payers or those tempor-
arily unable to pay but rather
with the average person who
finds delinquency accepted and
almost promoted by the mer-
chant.
Believing that the payment of
a bill benefits the payer as much
as the merchant DR.. Held said
that the average psychology of
the American merchant was
taht only the merchant was bene-
fitting from the collection of
an account and was therefore
somewhat apologize in his col
lection procedure. Illustrating,
DR.. Held, gave ample proof of
his point that the customer is
equally benefited by getting
out from under the burden of
bills and the feeling" that
comes with the knowledge that
one has paid all bills and is
square with the world.
"The collection process should
(therefore) make it clear that
the greatest health, freedom
from worry, happiness and so
forth is secured by paying
promptly and freeing oneself
from a burden"
DIR. Held, who is Secretary of
the College of Commerce at
Ohio State university, reviewed
the early history of credit ex-
tension in the United States and
stated that the habit of delin-
quency in the average American
is the fault of the merchants.
The extender of credit in retail
business has been negligent in
his procedure of collection -
sometimes not even billing his
customers until after consider
able time had elapsed. Through
such a policy the customer feels
he is actually justified in late
paying.
Summary of DIR. Held's talk
is his statements that the mer-
chant must impress the neces-
sity of payment on time on the
customer and that the best way
the public can be educated in
this policy and the best way the
policy can be put into effect is
through the credit associations
of the nation.
Before introducing DR.. Held,
Thomas Hite, manager of the
Newark credit organization, re-
viewed some of the activities of
the organization and announced
the present membership as 156.
The Newark association has
been in existence % years and
was one of the first of it's kind
in the nation. Attending the
dinner last night were 115
members and their guests,

cifications and advertise for

Saturday the county COM
missioners adopted a reso-
luton returning to the city
the task of caring for it's
own relief which represents
about 80 per cent of all
cases in the county. Only
20 per cent is outside of the
city proper.
In regular council meeting
Monday night Councilman Ar
thur Lockwood moved that the
resolution be returned to the
county commissioners with the
notation that "the city is not in
a position to handle the relief
problem that the county
has a permanent relief setup
and administrative body
that the city has no funds to
provide relief" The motion was
seconded by Councilman Stare,
and passed unanimously.
Discussion revealed that all
money appropriated for relief
by the city has been spent by
the county administrative office
even funds allotted for 1941
and 1912.
The county has been handling
relief under an agreement with
the city council and the city ad-
ministration. Expiring Deem
Der 81 no additional arrange
ments were made to handle the
problem and the county COM
missioners say they were forced
to act because of exhausted
funds.
Councilman Neighbor in his
remarks Monday night said that
"the action of the commissioners
is unfair. All along they have
been getting the city's share of
relief funds. They have the ad-
ministrative set-up and the city
is not in a position to set up
another headquarters for admin
istration of relief"
The resolution of the commits
sioners and subsequent action of
the city council has precipitated
a crisis in relief work in New
ark and Licking county. AS we
go to press no word is forthcom-
ing from the office of the
county relief administration as
to what can be done or is being
done to remedy the situation.
A resolution was passed by
council giving the city service
department the authority to ad-
vertise for bids and to enter in
to a contract for the purchase
of a water softening unit to be
used in connection with the new
boiler at the waterworks plant,
the cost not to exceed $1,000.
The service department was also
authorized to sell at private sale
several motor vehicles which
are in a delapidated condition
and no longer fit for economi-
cal use by the city. Police pa
troll cars, dump trucks, etc., are
among the items to be sold.
A license was granted to J.
R. Coyle for operation of a junk
shop and car wrecking business
at the site of the old Hawkins
Planning mill, 127 Riverside
drive.

Labor VS.. State Police
ANS organiza-

v E T E r ANS organiza-
tions and labor groups
will fight to the last ditch
against the attempt by GER
tain industrial interests to
extend the personnel of the
state highway patrol and
give them full permanent
police powers.
From Labor's standpoint
it is an attempt to create
a state constabulary. If
this bill passes the legisla-
ture as originally set up,
state patrol officers would
have the power to arrest
for any offense, anywhere
and at anytime.
Conflict with local law
enforcing bodies would be
endless. The state sher-
Mss association has already
gone on record as opposing
the measure.
The Newark Federation
of Labor is joining with
labor bodies throughout
the state in fighting the
plot. Labor has no objec-
tion to enlarging the per-
sonnel of the state highway
Ratrol in the interest of
Highway traffic safety
but is emphatically against
any plan for the creation of
a state constabulary.
Proponents of the bill
use as their argument the
absence of national guard
protection to be used in
emergencies.

Odd Fellowship

THE Independent Order of
Odd Fellows has for it's
object the elevation of
human character, the relief
of it's members in times of
trial or adversity, the visi-
tation of the sick, the burial
of the dead, and the educa-
tion of the orphan, and the
protection of widows and
the aged.
In this respect Odd Eel
lowship is not unlike a num-
Der of other fraternal or
CARNATIONS, which have re-
ligious humanitarian aims
eas their objective.
At this particular time,
however, in view of the Re-
gional meeting to be held in
Newark, Saturday, Feb. %
by the subordinate |. O. o.
F. lodges, Encampments,
Rebekah lodges, Cantons,
Ladies Auxiliaries and Pat
riarchs Militant of Ohio,
we feel that the tremend-
xpus power for good which
the organization represents,
is worthy of more than or
dinary mention.
It's lodges are found in
many lands, and are cover
ed by the flags of nearly
thirty nations.
It's motto is Friendship,
Love and TRUTH" and the
society is one of the flowers
of fraternal organizations.
It is beneficial, social, edu-
cational, and protective in
it's character. It provides
bones for the helpless and
the aged; it relieves the
grief of the widow, edu-
Gates the orphan, and buries
the dead. 1t also relieves
the distressed, and COM
forts the afflicted. The
world is the scope of it's ac-
tivity.
1t is fratenal, and it's ac-
tivities include hospitality,
tolerance and intelligence.
Every Odd Fellow is a
brother. 1t stands by it's
members and sees them
through their troubles if
they be worthy. Odd Eel
lowship is democratic in it's
methods and practical in it's
purpose.
Odd Fellowship aims to
unite all men and all ma
tions in the bond of friend
ship and fraternity, recog-
nizing the Fatherhood of
God and the brotherhood of
man in his progress toward
the betterment of the hu-
man race.
