say "old" socialists, for the
party of Norman Thomas has

after all, nothing more than a

THIS WEEK
WASHINGTON
REP. JOHN E. HENDERSON

During the past several weeks,
| have met with a large number
of residents of Southeastern Ohio
in the various county courthouseS
and discussed many issues which
are of concern to them. There has
been particular interest in the
changes of the Social Security
law enacted by the last Congress
which was discussed in this
column several weeks ago. The
features of the new law which
are of greatest intel est are those
pertaining to benefits for totally
disabled workers at age SO and
the benefits for women at age
62.
The Social Security Admins
tration has provided me with a
number of copies of a detailed
explanation of the new law
which I shall be pleased to fur
nish persons desiring them. Re-
quests may be addressed to me
either at my Washington, D. c,
office or to my office at Cam
bridge in the Central National
Bank Building.
Farm Credit
Credit for family-type farms
has been expanded under new
legislation this year affecting the
Farmers Home Administration
Briefly, the new law is intended
to serve the credit needs of a
larger number of farm families
by authorizing loans for the re-
financing of existing debts, in
creasing the maximum amoun
that can be advanced for operat,
ing loans, and making available
loans for operating and develop,

USR 2l

State Director S. o. Linzell announced
this week that he is recommending to the u.
F.. Bureau of Public Roads that USR 81 from
the Canton area, southerly to the Ohio-West
Virginia state line, in the proposed area of
Marietta be made part of Ohio's Federal
Interstate system.
This means in a nutshell that-at long
last-the forgotten highway in the state
of Ohio, will finally come into its own and
that Noble county and Caldwell will great
: ly benefit, when such proposal has finally
been approved.
81 am giving USR 81 top priority over
any other Ohio highway in such a consid-
Grafton, Linzell said and he added" the
officials of the highway department are cog
infant of the need for USR 81 as an Inter-
state highway and we are directing our en-
ergies in that direction"
Should the recommendation be approx
' ed by the Federal Bureau of Public Roads,
.USR 21 from near Canton, through Noble
county and Caldwell to Marietta will become
eligible for benefits of the Federal Highway
act of 1856, program whereby the Federal
Government will pay 80 percent of the cost
in construction and the state paying the re-
naming 10 percent.
This is perhaps the largest single ac-
complishment of the USR 81 organization
which was formed three years ago to obtain
recognition for this highway from Cleve-
land to Florida 1t was then referred to as
''The Gateway To The South.
With the initial action being taken by
Ohio, the other more southern states joined
in the fight and they have now perfected.
.imilar organizations for improving this
highway its entire length They are of course
conscious of the fact that Ohio has already
led the way in the improvement of many
miles of this highway and they will probably
be elated when LinzelPs action comes to
their attention.
Noble county was one of the first to
have USR q improved south of Caldwell
for a distance of five miles at cost of slight
ly more than one million dollars.
Since that time contract has been let

vaccine.
The National Foundation for Infantile
Paralysis also has expressed concern over the
drop-off in inoculations. Of the 81 million
American children most susceptible to po-
lilo, it has been reported that less than half
have sought Salk protection.
At the time of the school incubation
here, it is known fact that many parents
did not sign and return the card which per-
mitted their children to receive the vacci-
nation This is particularly true of the second
and third shots.
In the Salk vaccine, Noble Countians
and mankind in general have powerful
weapon that may insure final victory over
paralytic polio.
But the weapon must be used in Noble
county, if the battle is to be won.

for improvement in neighboring Guernsey
county and another is in the offing for re-
location and Improvement of this highway
from Noble through Guernsey county
There is also proposal in the blueprint
making for improving this main artery in
Noble county by relocating several miles
with the possibility that it will bypass Cald-
we'll.
1t is beginning to look as though USR
81, after a long period of Illustration, will
come into it's own and in few years hence,
this gigantic improvement should once again
serve as a boom to tourists all along the way
from the Great Lakes to Florida.
Route 81 from Cleveland to the Canton
area has either been rebuilt or is projected,
providing for at least four lanes of travel.
A court decision at Columbus a few days
ago settled section of relocation of the road
in the Canton area, approving the site Sc
lected by the state
Previously the section from Cleveland
to the disputed road site had been designated
as part Of the Federal Interstate system.
Much of the preliminary work has been
done on a survey of the route from a point
near North Salem to New Philadelphia. The
road would be relocated to the west of New
comerstown A contract has been let for re-
location in the Massillon area and consid-
cradle work has been done from Byesville
to the Noble county line.
When Gov Lausche came to Caldwell
last fall to dedicate the USR q Improvement
in Noble county, his very first remark on
getting out of the plane was this, "Why
WASH t. this section made four lane high
way?"
1t is now understood that much of the
northern part of the road will be four-lane
but the southern section, including Noble
county, will remain two-lane.
However, it is said that when right-of-
ways are obtained they will henceforth al
ways be for possible four-lane highway.
This is probably due to the influence of
Gov. Lausche, who is always looking far in
to the future.

Polio On The Rum

The most tragic aspect of Chicago's po-
10 outbreak is that it came at time when
he long fight against the crippling disease
Mas almost won.
The country now has available and this
ertainly includes Noble county, an inexpen-
|ive, plentiful vaccine that promises to end
or all time the ravages of paralytic polio.
But whether mankind here and else
where will take advantage of this golden
opportunity remains to be seen.

ing, borrowing and spending.
Our national politicians could
never buy very many votes
with a couple of billion dollars
in taxes. But when Roosevelt
and the Democrats began
spending six and eight and ten
and then more and more bill
lions, they discovered that they
could buy votes in immense
groups-not with just pitiful
little handouts to individuals,
but with billions for this and
billions for that, all going to
various large minorities. Then,
for the first time in our his
tory, a president was enabled
to stay in power for four sue
cessive terms.
For quite a while the mud
died Republicans grumpled
and muttered against all this
spending. But lately, first one
and then another Republican
Statesman" began to perceive
the tremendous value of this
taxing, borrowing and spend
ing. Whether it was on peace
or war, these grotesque billions
could be used to buy immense
minorities. For a while, the
COP chieftains muttered in
their boards against the
shameful extravaganza of the
Democrats" But presently the
facts of political life began to
seep into their consciousness.
When, therefore, the present
collection of politicians came to
power, they proceeded to out
spend their Democratic prede-
cessors. And now both parties
have adopted the spending phi

mediocre star nowhere near the

tiny universe discovered by the

all this the more they discover
that it is a universe of law. If the

God Created No Evil

The story-poem of Creation in
Genesis ends with the joyful note
God saw all he had made, and it
was very good. If anything God
has created seems bad, it is either
because we do not know how to
use it. or we have barged in where
we do not belong, or because we
ourselves have made it bad. St.
Thomas Aquinas once compared
this world to a tool-shop full Of
well-sharpened tools. 1t is not safe
to turn a child or lunatic loose in
there; but a master-Workman Will
not get hurt. So as men are learn
ing about the universe they are
finding out how to use the mate
rials that the Creator has set at
our disposal. But much that is evil
in the world is of our own making.
Most dust storms, for example, are
made by mans greed and stupid
ity to begin with, in digging up soil
that was never meant for cultiva-
ton. The whole race of man now
stands in terror of death, for
though we have discovered how to
harness the power in the atom
power our fathers knew was there
but had no idea how to reach-We
have put more effective thought
into using it for destruction than
for mans help But all mans mis-
uses of Gods creation must not
make us forget that when God first
looked it over. he saw that it was
good.
