An Act of Kindness


Having read the recent letter from
Tennessee Hillbilly," who states that
"a man earns the title of gentleman by
daily living" and is accepted as such
regardless of race, color. or creed"
would relate the following:
Not so long ago, a woman relative
of mine, having had tooth extracted
with gas, was waiting for bus home,
feeling pretty "rocky." A motherly
looking colored woman standing nearby
concernedly asked her if she could get
home all right" and then added: "You
look pretty i'll; I will go with you"
This she kindly did
We have thought many times OF this
Kind act performed by a stranger, and
our rather belated thanks are long
overdue Truly, one learns the title
of gentleman Cor gentlewoman by his
daily living" Reader.

Sides With Mccarthy

It seems M-advised for those who
have the least right to be the ones
crying out loudeSt against Senator Nc
Carthy. If 1t were not for his great
efforts, our destruction could have
already been accomplished.
Had not every secret we possess been
made available to Russia, with the
promise that every new secret would
be presented as it developed. she would
not have had the courage to make
Korea, to insult us, and the other
peoples of the world. at every oppor-
tunity, and to be as defiant as she is
in breaking every law of human de-
cency.
Only now, mostly by Senator Nc
Carthy's tireless, and thankless. for the
most part, work, has line been drawn
which says the friends of Russia shall
not continue to destroy America. The
time has come to declare, and to mean.
that the time for retrenchment by
Russia is at hand.

Crime Programs

The Board of Trade should take the
lead to ask Congress to enact law
prohibiting crime programs on TV and
radio. Crime programs are making
criminals of youth. They show how to
steal, kill, and destroy property. They
are a disgrace to America.
Congress should appropriate funds
for q television channel for educators,
and give children a chance to see and
hear good educational television pro-
grams. Mrs. Branson Gilbert McIlwee.

Tampering with pensions or annui-

annuities are bought and paid for and
ought not to be subject to cancellation
any more than those bought from any
non Government agency. They are not
advertised as being dependent on good

New Ohio Road
Maps Available

Copies of Ohio's official 1853 road
map, which marks the sesquicenten-
nial year for Ohio by having the
famous Rufus Putnam map of Ohio
in 1904 printed on the back, are
now available without charge by
writing the Director of Highways,
Columbus, Is, Ohio.
The two maps offer a study in
contrast between Ohio today and
that of $50 years ago. The 1853
map, prepared by the department,
is the most complete ever offered the
motoring public. Putnam's map is
hardly more than a crude outline
of a vast wilderness region.
The 1853 map tells the driver the
type of road he will travel, desig-
mates all centers of population, gives
mileage, Identifies state forests,
state and roadside parks, first aid
stations, fire towers, and airports.
1t even points out places of interest.
1t is the first official highway map
to show the route of the new Ohio
Turnpike, now under construction.

Wheat Growers
Vote August Ia
On Quota System

August Ia has been set as the date
for vote among wheat growers on
the question of whether quotas should
be used in marketing the 1854 wheat
crop, it was announced this week by
the Allen County Production and
Marketing Committee.
Wheat quotas, which perate
through acreage allotments were pro-
claimed by Secretary of Agriculture
Ezra Taft Benson on July l. How
ever, they will not become effective
unless two-thirds of the growers vot-
ing in the election are in favor of the
allotments.
Any wheat grower with an allot-
ment of more than Is acres of wheat.
and with normal production of 200
bushels or more will be eligible to
vote in the referendum.
Under new provisions, the national
allotment for 1854 may not be less
than 62 million acres. Since the in
Gated 1953-54 wheat supply stands at
an all-time high, the minimum acre
age, 81 million, is called for in plans.
If growers approve marketing quo
tas in the August IA balloting, price
supports on the 1854 wheat crop will
be available to cooperators at 80 per
cent of parity, as provided by law.
If growers do not approve quotas, the
price supports will drop to so per
cent of parity.
Under a marketing quota program,
growers who cooperate with their
wheat acreage allotments may mar
ket all of the wheat grown on their
allotted acres. Non-cooperators will
be subject to a penalty of 45f6 of the
wheat parity price as of May /, 1854,
on their farm marketing excess. This
penalty can be avoided or postponed
by holding excess wheat off the mar
ket.
