IN RECENT YEARS. chronological advances in the
science of rug cleaning have been little short of as
founding.
Today thanks to modern scientific methods and equip
ment it is not only possible, but practical to get
"ceaned" rug really clean. Without breaking injur
ing the fbres Without loosening them Without beating
them down and hattening out the pile like pancake.
With virtually all the dirt and hard sharp particles out
And rinsed free of harmful residue
But please note those words MODERN SCIEN.
TIFIC METHODS and EQUIPMENT. Unless
these modern chronological advances fully en-
ployed, it is PRACTICALLY IMPOSSIBLE (a) to
clean rug really clean, b) to leave it unchanged (c)
to control shrnkage (d to return to your home prac
tically free of all dirtaractng detergent impurities
In SHoRT Ordinary outdated rug cleaning methods that
merely scour your rug-give it superficial rinsng-
and hang it up to dry-simply do not do the job.
AS matter of fact these obsolete methods can do
rugs more harm than good.

Ricllcreek'S Proposal

Every clerk or judge who has ever
worked on the precinct level during an cleo
ton will agree that Harry G. Richcreek,
clerk of the Noble county board of elections,
has come up with a proposal that contains
much merit and makes horse sense
In nutshell, he has recommended to
Secretary of State, Ted W. Brown, that
officials be permitted to make count of the
votes during the day while the polls are open,
thus Texpediting the final count and eliminat-
ing the burning Of so much midnight oil.
Secretary Brown told Richcreek that the
suggestion contained much merit and he
would recommend it to the legislative COM
mittee when the state legislature meets next
year.
Noble countys own representative,
Edmund G. James, has served in this capa-
city and Richcreek is confident that with
James carrying the ball for this county in
the committee or legislature, his recon-
mendation with carry even more weight and
eventually the entire state will benefit.
Here is the old fashioned system as it
works now Ballot boxes are provided for
each of the various ballots which are handed
to the voter and so marked.
But they must remain locked until
$50 p. m. on election day when the polls are
declared officially closed
Then comes the arduous job of counting
all the ballots and tabulating the votes with
many of the judges and clerks working until
the wee small hours of the morning before
their work had been concluded.
But Richcreek's suggestion and recon-
mendation would end all of this.

Sales Set Pace

With the votes all in and the tabulations
completed, it appears that residents of Noble
county cast more of their dollars in the last
year for automotive equipment and for food
than for any other candidates for their
spendable income.
Some 46 percent of all purchases in the
local retail stores were garnered by these
two leaders.
Local automotive sales, including new
and used cars, boats, farm machinery and
the like, amounted to q percent and sales
in retail food stores and restaurants, 10
percent
The lowdown on how the retail dollar
is distributed is given in Sales Management's
copyrighted survey of the spending habits
of the people. Wide variations are noted for
different sections of the country.
In Noble county, where employment was
at high level, incomes good and population
risirgs dynamic advances were made in the
past year. Particularly did it profit the local
retail merchants, whose cash registers
jingled a $9OO1 900 tune for the year It had
been $7986,000 in 1854.
The journal. (Caldwell, Ohio) 1934-1961, 1956-09-06

On election day and during the several
hours when all precinct officials are sitting
around with nothing to do, Richcreek would
have them count the votes and keep run
ming tally. This would permit them to keep
abreast of the voting and when the polls are
closed at $50 p. m, they could have the COM
plete vote finished in less than an hour and
reported into the local election board and
thence to the secretary of states office in
Columbus.
This idea is not exactly original with the
local clerk for it is now being done success
fully in several of the western states
But the idea has never been advanced
for Ohio and there is certainly no reason
why the laws governing elections can't be a
little more streamlined.
This of course, would not be necessary
where voting machines are used for they
operate on the very same principal and count
the votes as they are cast, except it is done
mechanically.
The Richcreek proposal should be re-
ceived favorably on a precinct level for any
of the judges and clerks will agree that
election day becomes long and drawn out
one under the present circumstances.
There is very little to do during the day
when the votes are being cast but after $50
p. M, the heat is on until every single vote
has been tailed.
The local proposal would distribute the
work during the day and everybody would
then be happy with the final precinct re-
ported in around 900 p. m. instead of 400
a. M, as is usually the case.

THIS WEEK
WASHINGTON
REP, JOHN e. HENDERSON


To become the law of the land,
all bills must be passed by both
the House of Representatives and
the Senate. They must then be
approved by the President. These
three steps deter cursory or ILL
advised action by our federal
law-making bodies. To be sure,
this process is sometimes slow
and cumbersome. On the whole,
however, it prevents legislative
"shots-in-the-dark" which would
undoubtedly occur if our Con-
gresS were composed of a single
body.
Often, the bills which fail to
clear these three hurdles are of
much interest as those which do.
For instance, last year, the pre-
mature federal atomic power de-
velopment proposal which struck
at the economic heart of our coal
producing areas was one such
bill which was happily defeated
in the House of Representatives
after having passed the Senate.
Another, in my opinion, was the
federal aid for school construc-
ton bill. This measure was kill
ed in the House without consi-
| deration by the full Senate
although it was heatedly debated
| in a deadlocked Senate commit
tee. The actual merits or weak
nesses of this bill were discussed
too little in the Congress and its
demise, rightly Or wrongly, was
ascribed to the side-issue of civil
rights.
School Construction Aid Bill
l opposed the bill to provide
aid from the federal government
for school construction for rea-
sons which / believe to be in the
best interests of the people of
southeastern Ohio. The fact that
we need new and better schools
is obvious, but the manner in
which we get them is the issue.
| Too often some of our people
| forget that federal programs
must be paid for by taxes levied
on them and the rest of the ma
ton. In this bill, Ohioans would
have paid in new federal taxes
| a total of $26,936,000. In return,
it was proposed that our state
would receive $20,236, ,416. Thus
239o of the tax dollars collected
for the school program here
would have been lost to Ohio in
federal administrative costs and
to other states. In addition, the
$400 million in grants would
have constituted less than 4%
of the public funds now being
spent for schools.

k The American Way Xxx

enterprise, to be effective,
must be free-free from bur-
eaucratic meddling and the
heavy hand of government.
Free enterprise is an express
sion of your freedom-because
labor is an integral part of all
enterprise. Stated the other
way around: So long as enter
prise is free, you as a worker
are free. When enterprise is
frozen by professional gov
ernment, you too are frozen.
You are then no longer free.
You are slave labor in it's dark
est and most Woeful sense.
Your job and earnings are as
directed. You acquire only
what you are allowed.
You, the American worker,
and your employer are part
ners. In a big way. In several
big ways.
This is true whether your
employer is an individual, a
small company of associated
individuals you can name, or
vast corporation owned by
thousands of stockholders and
headed by directors you may
never have heard of.
1t is true whether you are
your employers only employe
or work as one of many thou
sands.
1t is true whether you are a
skilled craftsman with years of
seniority or whether you are
brand-neW on the job.
1t is true whether you are
member of a union or, for one
reason or another, are not.
Whoever you are, wherever
you work, whatever you do to
earn your pay-you and your
employer are partners. You are
partners in production in en-
terprise, in freedom.
Here's how you are partners
in production. Together-and

Of this total, automotive sales were res
ponsible for $2,441 900 and food sales,
$1,744,000.
In both cases, the trend to more luxuri-
Gus living was in evidence. People were
buying better cars and more of them.
Additional families were acquiring second
cars.
Similarly, the study shows, they were
spending more for food, going in for finer
cuts of meat and for better grades of canned
goods. And they were consuming them in
greater volume.
While these retail branches were the
chief recipients of the spending surge in
Noble county, other lines of business also
Jared well.
Stores selling general merchandise had
a $920,00O year, accounting for 10 percent
of the consumer dollar.
Sales of hardware supplies, building
materials and lumber came to $1,837, ,000
another 20 percent
Shops selling clothing and other apparel
crossed $2O6,O0O, equal to percent.

Partners In Enterprise

Here are a few things every
worker in a free-enterprise
economy should know, address,
ed to the worker in person:
This country belongs to you
as much as to anyone. 1t will
be a free country only as long
as you yourself remain free.
Your freedom is yours to main
tain.-by being forever respon-
sible to it. 1t will fall apart if
you leave it to others to main
tain for you. There is service
charge for everything-if you
have your freedom maintained
for you, the charge is deduct
ed straight from your freedom
itself.
Your freedom means your
opportunity. 1t means ladders
leading up and down the social
and economic scale. You can
climb or descend as you will
as you plan and direct your
self-or as you fail to do eth
er.
This country of yours is a
productive one. That's because
you, being free, are produc-
tive. This means that many
goods and services are here
for you to enjoy. 1t means that
because you are productive
these goods and services are
within your reach. They are
wealth that is yours to acquire
as result of your own pro-
ductive efficiency.
This condition will continue
so long as you remain free and
productive. 1t will end when
you cease to contribute-or
when you cease to be free. 1t
will end when you produce
only what you are driven to
produce.
Our American system is bas-
ed on enterprise, and enter
prise spells productivity. Also

that. There was something
your employer couldn't handle

a reward, invited it.
