In Mexico, President Manuel Ayila
camacho's new land reform consists OF
Wholesale seizure Of large land hold
ings and dividing them up into small
farms. Oklahoma claims that, "Condi-
tions az portrayed in The Grapes OF
Wrath and the subsequent investigation
of conditions among her migratory
workers, have increased sentiment for
state graduated land tax.
Mexico's plan is too radical and will
eventually lead back to her original state
of affairs, while the graduated tax for
Oklahoma is merely halfway compro-
mise. And these compromises reminds
one Of the days of slavery when SO many

opinions concerning such, stating that
same should be compensated for loss.
Here in brief is the Single Tax
Plan as recommended by the late Henry
George.
I'VE hold that all men are equally
entitled to the use and enjoyment OF
what God has created and of what is
gained by the general growth and i'm
proyement of the community of which
they are a part.
Therefore, no one should be permit
ted to hold natural opportunities without
a fair return to all for any special privil-
eges thus accorded him, and that value
which the growth and improvement Of
the community attaches to land should
be taken for the use Of the community:
that each is entitled to all that his labor
produces: therefore, no tax should be
levied on the products of labor.

Ohio Bell Telephone Co.
Put In Emergency
Power Equipment

A national defense project to
provide emergency power equip
ment at points in the state where
power failures could seriously
handicap the furnishing of ade-
quate telephone service is being
carried on by The Ohio Bell
Telephone company.
Generators driven by Diesel
engines will be or already have
been installed in a score of the
company's buildings. They are
for use in any emergency which
might arise if the outside COM
merrial power which the Ohio
Bell uses should be curtailed or
disrupted.
Three emergency Diesel-pow-
cred systems were installed in
Columbus and Springfield some
time ago and the largest Of the
group has just been placed in the
Ohio Bell headquarters in Cleve-
land. Another large one is at
the completion stage in Toledo
and emergency systems are I'M

How They Came by Their Power
Most regrettable of all, these
men possess their power and in

because Of the support given the
Democratic Party in three sue
cessive national elections by sub
stantially large numbers of the
Negro group in Northern. East

again, surely, should they be SO
disregardful Of their own best
interests.
How safe is the Constitution

Rights, and the Reconstruction
Amendments to the Constitution

Bell commercial manager in
charge of this exchange.
Our telephone equipment is
operated on power from outside

in our minds that the extensive

ures taken by the power compan-
les will insure supply sufficient

prepare for any contingency.
Our emergency power units will
be used only in the event that
our supply from the commercial
power companies is interrupted.
Industries engaged in natl
onal defense work must have

phone service. The telephone
company must have power to
furnish that telephone service.

Last Wednesday, June 11th,

When the Continental Con-
