NOBLE TOWNSHIP Sunday
we went calling on a large
scale-our first stop was with
Vernon and Dolores Farmhouse,
who just recently moved into the
country and seem SO pleased and
happy to be out in ''the wide
open spaces. Next we treated
ourselves to big dinner up at
Byesville. (Our REA electric had
an outage" due to a severe lee
trical storm and we needed our
coffee).
From there we visited with
Aunt Lou Bates, who formerly
lived here in Noble county, but
now resides in Guernsey. She
looked fine and we talked a
"blue streak. Derwent was next
on the agenda where we stopped
at Raymond Bates, also a former
Noble county resident. Then we
headed homeWard but stopped
off to see Harry and Opal Bates
and Glen and Eva Davis (neither
family home so we didn't get to
''pester" them). Last on the list
was Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Larsen
and family, who live just off the
Shenandoah Trail. Did the chores
at home and then spent the even

ministration asserts the right
to take over the operation of as
much of the economic system
as it can get away with and to
take over as much of the peo-
pies income as can safely be
extorted by all sorts of taxes.
What cannot be taxed can be
borrowed. This, of course, as
any rational and objective OBJ
server can see, is nothing more
than the gradual specialization
of the economic System--the
installation of government as
the employer as well as the
ruler of the people, and its au-
thoritarian confiscation of their
earnings. The term New Deal
is more or less the property of
the Democrats, but the Repub-
licanS have made no import
ant or serious alteration in this
MARKHAM gradualiSm. In the
four fiscal years of Truman's
last administration that emf
nent statesman, with the Ko-
rean War on his hands, spent
223 billion dollars. President
Eisenhower in his four years
Of peace spent 263 billion dol
lars.
Now the inevitable national
election comes around. What
are the issues? There is really
only one. That is the struggle
Of the Democrats to OuSt the
Republicans and get back their
beloved New Deal-Which the
Republicans have been playing
with and which both parties
have stolen from the socialists.

ton and administrative action by
the Federal Government to help
all of the smaller firms in our
country.
Among the IA specific recon-
mendations are many which will
necessitate new legislation that
will undoubtedly be given prior
ity when Congress meets again
in January. Four of these recon-
mendations deal with the prob
lens related to high tax rates
paid by small business. Among
these, is the cutting of the pre-
sent tax rate Of 800 on the first
$4,000 of corporate income to
20%c.
Other recommendations call
for closer Federal scrutiny over
mergers and procedural changes
to facilitate the enforcement of
our antitrust laws. Still other
suggestions will almost surely
lead to simplifying the great bur
den of paper work low demand
ed of businesses by the Federal
Government. These simpliflca-
tons refer to the required re-
cords of social security payments,
income tax withholding data, and
numerous other reports.
Other recommendations are
likely in the future and it is
almost certain that one of these
will involve some means for
stimulating investments in small
| >ompanies to help the establi''
ment of new small enterprises
and to aid in their growth.
