FOurSauare to the Issues

THE local, state and national gov
II ernments must segregate the tax
bases to preserve appropriate fields
of revenue one from the other and to
prevent overlapping taxation.
Our tax structure nolD is only
planless PATCHWORK held together by
nothing more substantial than politi-
cal expediency."
Instead of forever increasing and
centralizing taxation, taxes SHOULD
BE REPEALED wherever possible.
"WheneUer state governments
reach the point tDhere their revenues
may reasonably be anticipated to ex-
coed necessary demands for any
material period of time, instead of
increasing local government SUBJ
sides, they should repeal such taxes
as wiI best open fields of revenue
for local governments"
WE MUST preserve the federal
" system of government, and
adopt tax system to REVlTALIZE
our entire economic machinery.
"The truth is that the states are
threatened by an eUer groWing CEN
realization of potDer in Washington
-. Washing away the Uery founda.
ton of our state and local govern
ments-their traditional financial
independence"
Far from enhancing our position
among the nations, the prodigal
pouring out of billions can only
weaken and vitiate and sicken US as
a world power.
"A nation Which builds its finan-
cial house upon shifting sands of
deficit financing in peace times can
not surUiUe as nation.
"Nor can such a nation be a
powerful influence in world affairs
80 To be strong, to be influential, to
be helpful in the uorld, we must,
aboUe everything else, build our otDn
house upon the solid rock of finan-
cial solUency, equity and Justice"
THE evil of the subsidy emanating
i from centralized power is illus
trated by the recent federal proposal
to underwrite the public schools of
the nation.
"When an effort is made to
change the government of country,
one of the first steps is to take oUer
the education and training of the
youth of that country. THIS IS
WHAT HITLER DID IN GER
MANY. l am opposed to the dicta-
tion of our educational policies from
Washington"
FINALLY, the state and local gov
1 ernments must remain strong and
vital-else the door will be open to
totalitarianism and every form of
demagogy.
"The more the history of the re-
public is Written at the crossroads
and the less at the capitol, the freer
We shall be-"
Gov. Bricker's speech was a great
one-not for campaign oratory" or
flowery phrases. 1t was great for
courage and facts, and for the will
ingness of one man to stand fear
lessly, foursquare on the issues.
Americans may reverently give
thanks that such man has risen up
to measure to proclaim the perils that
we face today.
"@-.H>~.~
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1944-06-05

TT is GOOD to find man who
l. speaks straight out and stands
solid on his feet.
Such men are few.
One is Gov. John w. Bricker of
Ohio.
His virtues are the plain, honest
ones of the clear word and the firm
position.
He does not generalize, COM
promise or temporize.
The American people understand
what Bricker says.
They are beginning to realize that
Bricker is a man who can say, with
Thomas Jefferson:
81 neUer had an opinion in politics
.. phich | was afraid TO oWn."
THIS is the John w. Bricker who
spoke on Memorial Day to the
conference of governors at Harris
burg and delineated for them-with
the eloquence of simplicity-the
basic danger that threatens our ma
tion from within.
That danger-the very heart and
core and handspring of our other
besetting evils-is the crazyquilt
fiscal program patterned by the New
Deal.
THE policy of spend, borrow and
l. tax, avidly adopted in peacetime
by wastrel administration, has been
carried over into the war period and
Is to be continued in the postwar
years-if the New Deal has its way.
This policy was not fiscal policy
as such, but was more often politi-
Cal and pseudo-social policy by means
of which the New Deal revolution
was attempted and all but accom-
plished.
1t gave birth to boondoggling and
bureaucracy. 1t provided the bait OF
"cradle to grave security" to lure
the people into reorganization. 1t
glorified the unbalanced budget and
the lie of deficit spending. ("After
oil, aren't we only borrowing from
ourseives?")
A GAINST this attempted revolu
"A ton, rooted in unprincipled and
cynical contempt for real values,
Bricker stands out as the leader of
the counter revolution and the de-
fender of American honesty and
American strength.
We must balance our budget at
the earliest possible date.
"That Mould glue more jobs than
all the made work the government
could possibly plan"
We must practice the strictest
economy in government.
"Unless federal expenditures are
limited to absolutely essential items,
ii is inevitable that the federal goU-
eminent must ultimately pre-empt
the entire field of taxation, leaving
nothing for state and local govern
nents.
81 haUe repeatedly pointed out
that De may expect no substantial
curtailment of federal expenditures
until rue abolish our present bureauc-
racy and return to responsible
cabinet government"

get their turkey as soon as relieved.

The u. S. Army Salvage Depot here,
only one on the continent, has un-
officially adopted eight Russian ba-
bies and two Russian husbands.
They are the families of 80 Soviet
women now working for Uncle Sam
as seamstresses at the depot. These
women, who range in age from 16
to 70, were brought to France by the
Germans as slave labor, but most OF
the husbands were taken to Ger
