, to the wastefulnesS of having
spent nearly nine million dollars
on the project and allowing it to
be abandoned He pointed out
that it is one of the remaining
needed sites for the control of
flood conditions in the 18th Dis
trict.
The speaker also denounced
the intervention Of government
into business in competition
with private enterprise. He eX-
planned that in the 99th General
Assembly he had introduced a
resolution to set in motion
amendatory processes to make
such Intervention unconstitu-
tional and announced that where
private enterprise could fill the
need of America, he intended to
continue in his efforts to
advocate government returning
such enterprises to private hands
Government in business is not
necessary in a peaceful America
and we hope that American can
remain at peace and that private
industry can furnish and make
our America prosperous. The
alternative road leads to social
ism"
Mr.. Henderson denounced the
rising tide of Communistic influ-
ence. He suggested that all
branches of local state, and fed
eral government carry out effec-
tive measure of cleaning house
and where laws were insufficient
that new ones be enacted. He
pointed out that Ohio's recent
anti-communistic legislation is a
result of 3 years of study by the
House Un-American Activities
Committee, and that it has be
come a pattern for similar legis-
lation in other states. Henderson
was a member of the House
Judiciary Committee which ap-
proved the legislation.
