"A HuIlldinSer

The election in Ohio and Noble county
should be humdinger this coming Novem-
Der
The people will elect their representa-
tives to the federal government and state and
county officials on November 4.
In addition there are two proposed
amendments to the Ohio Constitution, one of
which is enough to assure an unusually eX-
citing election throughout the state Then,
too, there is the special issue in Noble county
to create new school district and it all adds
up to what should prove to be record turn
out of voters on the state and precinct level.
The eyes of the nation will be on Ohio
to see how its citizens decide the Right-To-
Work issue. They will vote on the proposed
amendment which would prohibit compul-
sorry membership or non-memberShip in
union as condition of employment or con-
tinued employment. Already considerable
pressure is being brought to bear on the rank
and file in this state to get out and vote.
The other proposed amendment is of
little interest outside the larger counties Of
the state. 1t would permit the formation by
local charters of metropolitan federations in
counties containing cities of more than $4,000
population.
But even with all the above, there is
plenty of interest in seven school districts in
the county where the proposed creation of
the new school district will be voted on.
On q local level, the consolidation issue
will be the hottest thing to hit Noble county
for many year. 1t concerns the proposed

YOU ASKED FOR IT
BY Maurice Il. Franks

A lot of Americans are won
dering after all the Senate Rae
kets Committee has uncovered
in the way of union corruption
why so small dose Of cor
receive action got on the floor
for debate during the final
session of the 85th Congress.
They can cease wondering be-
cause there is a mighty good
reason. 1t is that legislative
action to bring about effective
union reform depends on a
ground-swell of popular de-
mand not on mere empty
gripping.
AS close observers have not
ed and members of Congress
quite openly admitted, there
was no ground swell of public
opinion demanding labor leg
islation designed to clear the
unions of racketeers and radi-
Gals flooding in upon these men
who make our laws. And the
cold fact is, there can be no
hope for improvement in the
situation will enough people at
the graSsrOots make known
their wants.
l have spent a great deal of
my time in Washington, and |
can state from intimate acqu-
aintanceship with many Sen
ators and Congressman that
their legislative performance is
always keenly influenced by
communications of opinion re-
ceived from their constituents
and far more so than by
the efforts of professional
lobbyists and the influx of
canned" mail.
This fact should be of great
interest and encouragement to
every American citizen, no
matter what he thinks. 1t
should enable him to under
stand, once and for always,
that he can get what he asks
for in the way of law and order
- to the extent that his ask

son, Paul Jonard and Jack Ferrell.
The local club purchased 3,240 light
bulbs and they will be sold in kits of six this
year for $3.50 instead of $500 as last year
Of all their community projects, the
Lions club feels that the light bulb sale is
their most successful one and in the past they
have received wonderful cooperation from
the citizens.
1t is again expected they will receive the
fullest cooperation from the public and the
drive will be a successful one from every
angle.

THANKFUL FOR SMALL
MERCIES

The second session of the 85th
Congress was the freest spending
in the nations history. 1t spent
the taxpayers money with a Law
ish hand. But there were some
silver Innings in the dark cloud
For instance:
A community facilities con-
struction bill was defeated on the
House floor. This was after the
Senate passed it with a loan
authorization of 81 billion; and
the House Banking Committee
had raised the amount to 81 bill
lion.
The House defeated $25 bill
lion omnibus housing bill after
the Senate had passed it.
A $3.50 million iva revenue
bonds bill for financing expan-
sion of Twas electric power faci-
lities was passed by the Senate
in 1857, was favorably reported
by the House Public Works Com
mittee in 1858, but the House
Rules Committee let it die.
The House killed $458 million
minerals subsidy and stockpiling
bill which had passed the Senate.
We can be thankful to the
House for small mercies. The
Lower House definitely was
higher on economy than the
Higher House (the Senate). Per-
haps it would be better to put it
this way: The House was less
profligate than the Senate.

Between 5000 and 10000

pected to apply for schooling this

Mark Mattirgly, veterans admin
istration representative at the
Cambridge, Ohio, office announc-
ed today.
The education program for
sons and daughters of deceased

$l10 a month for each month
they are at school.
Before they start school, they
will be given vocational coun-
selling to help them select goal
and the proper course leading to
the goal.
To be eligible, their veteran
parent must have died from a
wartime incurred disability.

+. >. Ten Years AGO

Two carloads of salt, consigned
to the state highway department,
arrived in Caldwell last week,
bringing to three the total num-
Der of cars of salt now on hand
at the local garage for use this
winter on state highways in the
county. Traffic on state route l47
over what is known as Whiskey
Run bridge is back to normal,
according to state highway
superintendent. Motorists were
allowed to use the bridge for
the first time this week follow
ing construction work on the
new bridge which was started
about six weeks ago.
Of the GOT young men who
registered for the peacetime
draft in Noble county, only 1862
are non-veterans and single. This
is an exceptionally low percent
age of eligible men but/can prob
ably be traced to the high per-
centage of Noble county youths
which served in the armed forces
during World War II.

Gov. C. William O'Neill on
Monday of this week announced
his approval and endorsement of
the proposed amendment Right

November election. His opponent,
Mike Disable, the Democratic
candidate for governor, is against
the amendment.
Time to again remind all that
it is essential that we attend the
church of our choice or Sunday,
at least when conditions will per-
NIT. In some of the nations of the
world the armor of war is on
display, in others it has been put
on. The armor that the world
most needs is that Of the whole
of God and fight for His desires.
It was the Republican party
| that in 1960-65 released the as
cestors of the present Negro race
from slavery and into freedom.
Much the same condition seems
to prevail in the South in con-
nection with the matter of school
integration and segregation. II
is to be hoped that the affair
may soon be amicably settled.
Such a mixture Of seasons as
prevailed through last spring
land summer and thus far in this
fall was never before known in
this area, which was very detri-
mental to all growing fruits

time, so why complain?
The latest political prediction
is that in the near future there
will be a division in the Demo
cratic party in the southland
that there will be the organiza
ton of the third party dowr
there this year and that one side
of the contenders will later
cement itself with the Republi
can party.

Kenneth Walker, editor of The

from essentially two things. One
is lack of concern on the part Of

no trouble attitude. The other is
plain lack of ability to read and
write we'll"

Walker said voting restrictions
do exist in Louisiana, with politi.
cal as well as racial overtones.
Albert L. Powell, president Of

League, said the Negro registers

In 43 counties of Mississippi,
Powell said, every now and then
a favored Negro is permitted to
register. In the other 33 counties,
he said, there is "gross intimida-
ton that creates a fear complex
to such an extent that the Negroes
in these counties are in most in
stances afraid to try to register"
In most elections in Mississippi,

can yell Niger, Niger" loudest
will be elected"
