"A Sharp Gain

Ohio holds second position among the
great industrial states and is gaining on
first-place New York. Comparative figures
on the principal competitors are available
now from the 1854 Census of Manufacturers.
Biggest percentage gains in manufac-
turing in Ohio were made by smaller coun-
ties that had previously little if any,
industry.
For Noble county, the production was
listed at $2,6O00OO which represented an
increase of 342 percent.
Putnam county in northwestern Ohio
made the almost incredible gain of 1877 per-
cent in the value of its manufactures with
the 1854 output amounting to $22,O00,OOO.
Neighboring Morgan county came next
wit with 765 percent for 1854 value of $780,
When you consider the state average
was only 60 percent, it is very evident that
manufacturing did make a terrific stride in
these smaller counties.
The 1854 Census report shows that dur
ing the seven-year period between censuses
Ohio moved ahead of both Illinois and Penn
sylvania in the value of manufacturing to
advance from fourth place to second.
Ohioans are we'll aware that their states in
dustrial pace has shown no let-up in the two
years since these official figures were taken.

Special Issues

. On the local level, there will be eight
special issues involved at the general cleo
ton, which is less than four weeks away,
and all of them deal with the betterment
of the community or school district
Two of the special levies include one
for the village of Caldwell, asking that a
bond issue in the amount of ST., 900 be
approved for the purpose of constructing a
sewage disposal works as provided by law
and the other is in the amount of $4,000
for Southern Noble school district asking the
voter to approve in order that an addition
might be constructed to the existing school
at Dexter City.
The other six special ballots all are for
renewals or increases in existing tax levies,
five for the school districts and one for the
village of Belle Valley.

roadside park on USR 81, between Cald-
well and Belle Valley.
Hon. Robert T. Secrest, member of the
Federal Trade Commission, will make the

c. Zepp, director, The Ohio Historical society
of Columbus, who will give brief history
of John Gray; Hon. John E. Henderson, con-
gresham from the 18th district, who will
give a factual historical data report
DR.. Charles A. Anderson, president, the Ohio

Monroe county will probably show the
greatest industrial movement forward when
the next report is compiled for all center of
activity is now centering in this neighboring
county.
Value of the output of Ohio's factories
in 1854, which was not as good year as some
was So, ,796, 100000 more than in 1947 During
that year $763,OO000O was invested in new
manufacturing plants and equipment in
Ohio
In 1854 the total value of Ohio's indus
trial production was still a substantial 33
percent under New Yorks But in 1947 it
has been So percent under. In the seven
years Ohio went from 9 percent behind
Pennsylvania to 2 percent ahead; from per-
cent behind Illinois to percent ahead; from
% percent ahead of Michigan (holding fifth
place. down to 16 percent ahead
The larger industrial counties made
gains likewise, though not at such astro-
nomical percentage rates. The proportion of
Ohio's total industrial production turned out
by the II leading counties was almost
exactly the same in 1854 as in 1947, about 76
percent. So the phenomenal increases made
by the smaller counties have resulted from
new industry for Ohio rather than from
plants taken away from other sections of
the state.

g, Voters in Belle Valley will be asked to
approve tax levy not to exceed four mills
for the purpose of paying current expenses.
The school districts in this county with
special tax levies are Elk local. Sharon local,
Buffalo local, Brookfield local and Seneca
local.
Each and everyone of the special issues
involved in the general election for Noble
county on Tuesday, Nov. 6, should receive
the approval of the voters in their respective
precincts.
Whether it be for the betterment of the
schools by new construction or the improve
ment of the community by the construction
of sewage SYSTEM it will be necessary for
one and all to support the issues at hand and
do their part financially in helping the area
to grow and prosper.

THE MERICAN VA

MIR. Melvin H. Baker, Board
Chairman of National Gyp-
sum Company, Buffalo, N. Y,
is serving as National Chair
man for National Bible Week
this year. In accepting the as
signment, Mr.. Baker said, 81
am happy to do this job be-
cause all people should study
the Bible, which is the foun-
dation for our civilization.
Shortly we will be asking
leading men and women in 500
different communities to be,
come chairmen of groups in
each of their respective COM
munities. Newspapers, maga-
zines, radio stations, theatres,
churches, schools and other
public groups across the ma
ton will be asked to take part
in this great campaign. I'm
sure we can anticipate the sup
port of all in carrying our mes
sage to a maximum number of
people.
Through this effort, we
hope to provoke interest in
Bible reading. In these busy
times when there is so much
confusion, it is my hope that
we may take time out to rein
force our spiritual knowledge
and, in so doing, find the ans
wer to many perplexing issues.

SATAN TREMBLES

TO the Elmer Times, a week

Elmer, New Jersey, l am in
debted for the following jingle
which appeared in its 1856
Almanac: 1t refers to a sign
placed in a bookstore windows
which boosted Bible sales:
Holy Scripture, Writ Divine
At a dollar forty-nine;
Satan trembles when he sees
Bibles sold as cheap as these"
Well, his Satanic Majesty
must right now be shivering in
his boots. It's a panicky feel
ing that attacks him in October
Of each year. For that is the
week during which National
Week is observed, sponsored
by the Laymen's National
committee, the All-Faiths or
ganization. The 18th annual
observance of this important
event is from October 1921
this year. No wonder the
Devil shivers and shakes, fer
right well he knows that the
interest of many Americans
will be attracted to the Bible
and many thousands of others
will have their interest rekind-
led. And Satan further knows

REP. JOHN E. HENDERSON
Flood Insurance Program

Every year, major floods oc-
cur somewhere in the United
States. Most recently, New Eng
land and California have suf-
fered from flood disasters. In
the past the Ohio and Muskin-
gum rivers and the smaller
streams of the 18th District have
caused great damage to homes
and property of families resid-
ing near them. The problem has
been recognized as a national
one for many years and the
construction and operation of
flood control dams has been a
longtime responsibility of the
Army's Corps of Engineers.
Between 1851 and 1855, the ma
tion's flood damage each year
amounted to slightly more than
81 billion. This record of disas-
ters stimulated the Congress this
year to take important steps to-
ward a flood insurance program
intended to insure individuals
against damage or loss of prop
erty due to floods, to reinsure
flood risks of private insurers,
and to assist those who have suf-
fered flood damage or loss to
secure credit to restore their
property.
Private insurance companies
do not provide coverage for loss
es of real property. through
floods and are able to provide
only limited insurance for losses
of personal property. They have
been unable to enter this field
because of the heavy element
of risk in the initial years of such
program. Private insurance
firms have pointed out that a
heavy flood in a given area could
bankrupt an insurance company
before sufficient reserves could
be built up.
This program which was ap-
proved by the President on Aug.
9 is an experimental one intend
ed to develop the actuarial ex-
perience needed to determine
whether or not flood insurance
is commercially feasible to be
offered by private companies and
how much, if any, Federal sup,
port of such a program would be
required.

less fortunate was taken up by
Parliament and in 1874, William

l penny a mile.
The Midland Railway in 1875,
believing that greater revenues
would follow, If the public were
offered comfortable facilities at
low fares, abolished second-class
travel completely by scrapping
their third-class coaches and re-
designating the remaining sec
ond-class coaches as third class.

Spring weather in the southern

variety includes barrel cactus,
Engelmann's pear. purple tinge

Other southwestern plants found
here include ocotillo, mescal

But the most profuse of all
in New Mexico is the yucca, with
it's long pointed leaves and
creamy flowers.
The blossom season this year
promises to be a long one,
