Heart Attack Fatal
To John H. Morris

John H. Morris, we'll known No
BILE county educator, was found
dead late Monday afternoon in his
automobile about three miles north
of Quaker City, on state route 5l3.
Mr.. Morris apparently suffered a
heart attack, pulled his car off to
the side of the road and turned off
the ignition. A passing motorist
discovered the body.
A graduate of Muskingum col
lege, Mr.. Morris received his mas
ter of arts degree at Ohio State
university. He taught in the rural
schools of Noble county and later
served as superintendent of the
Batesville, Roseville, Quaker City,
Senecaville, Pleasant City, and
Brilliant schools.
He was active in the civic affairs
Of the community, Knights Temp
lar and 32nd degree Mason.
Surviving are two daughters
both of GAINESVILLE. His wife, Mrs
Cora Denius Morris, died Nov. %

today Thursday from the Eberle

In WASHINGTON
With Griffiths

The Fiscal Committee of Congress
of which the Committee on Appro-
priations of the House and on which
I am a member must submit by
February Is Budget, fixing over
all amounts which can be spent for
various government activities in the
coming fiscal year.
President Truman insists that
during the next fiscal year he must
have a budget of thirty-seven and
one half billion dollars I believe
this budget can and must be cut
from three to five billions of dollars.
This is necessary if our Government
is to balance the budget, make sub
stantial payment on the National
Debt and reduce the tax burden on
the American People.
1t undoubtedly comes as a shock
to the thinking electorate to realize
it is costing Is per cent of tSe total
national income to meet the ex-
penses of the Federal Government
then add to 10 per cent more for
State and local governments and il
can readily be seen why prices are
so high; the danger of initiation is
ever present and the average citizen
cannot lay away few dollars for q
rainy day.

authority to dissolve a department
he said.
The board of county commission
ers could have appealed the order
of the state welfare department
seizing the administration of the
aid to the blind and dependent chill
dren If they had done so within
three days. The deadline passed
Monday with no appeal on file in
the attorney generals office, accord
ing to Col. Yerick.
The appeal could have been made
to the Public Assistance Board of
Appeals, made up of the attorney
general, finance director and state
auditor.
The state took over the admins
tration under authority of Sections
2968-1 and 1359-39 of the General
Code which provides that when the
state department of public welfare
supersedes the county administra-
tion the department shall have the
authority to expend all amounts in
the county treasury, appropriated
for any of the purposes of the act.
and all amounts apportioned and
paid to the county under the act,
and the county auditor shall recog-
nize such expenditures.
Judge Robson said there was no
precedent for the action and he did
not know how long the state might
have to take over the county ad-
ministration.
Mrs. Lucetta Steward, field rep
resentative Of the division of social
administration, was designated to
administer the county program dur
ing the wrangle.
Meanwhile, the position of Robert
Spriggs, probation officer of the
juvenile court, who was appointed
to head the county welfare depart
ment. remained in doubt.
- State welfare officials reported
that he, unlike the recipients of aid
had been paid for the month ot
January.
The dispute came to head wher
