Showdown

The lOng-expected showdown
between defense officials and
steel producers is believed to be
near at hand.
In authoritative quarters it was
asserted this week that orders
have been prepared directing
steel companies to accept de-
fense contracts with priority
ratings whenever they are of
fered. If concerns continue to
balk, their plants may be taken
over by the government. This is
possible under legislation COM
pleted by the House this week.
o. P. M. officials have CON-
planned that a number of COM
panies have insisted on giving
preference to orders of regular
customers.

Public Servants

State examiners in their
regular reports of recent
date commented on the ac-
curate records kept in the
office of the Clerk of
County courts. Not only was
Clifton L. Bishop, former
clerk, commended for the
manner in which he turned
the office over to Edwin j.
Haynes, his successor, but
Mr.. Haynes came in for his
share of praise for the ex-
cellent condition of the rec
Qrds and the efficient man
iIer in which he is conduct
ing the affairs of the people
of Licking county.
The examiners found the
same thing true in the
office of Lowell w. Yer
million, County Recorder.
That is as it should be
too often such is not the
case. AS examiners finish
their work in the various
county offices we have no
doubt but what there will be
other public servants in the
courthouse who will have
been found to have carried
on the affairs of their re-
spective offices in a like
manner.
Judgment in selecting
personnel, efficient manage
ment, and a thorough
knowledge of the duties in
Evolved are prime requisites
in conducting city, county,
state and national govern
ment. We believe that for
the most part at least, the
people of Licking county
have chosen their present
servants wisely.
