They Want To Go Recruiting stations of the Army, Navy and Marine Corps in Washington are receiving a great many applications of Americans of military age who wish to join the service. Contrary to predictions there has been a constant stream of World War veterans calling at the National Capital headquarters to say that they are willing to serve “if we can get in.” The recruiting stations in the Capital did not have to wait many days after President Roosevelt issued his order to raise the strength of the Army and Navy to a new peacetime high before it was able to say that there would be plenty of enlistments to provide for the one hundred thousand extra men that would be added to the military units.
“Windfall Profits” The speculators and riggers of prices of food supplies were responsible for the rush on food stores resulting from widespread shortage and mounting prices. The President’s proclamation, suspending quotas on sugar in order to halt the hoarding, said that speculators were scheming to “capture windfall profits.” There are no shortages of food in the United States.
Farmers Likely To Flourish Agricultural products are not war goods and the farmers are legitimately entitled to the benefits of higher prices for their goods. Just where the war, and prices, will go, nobody knows. But in the last European war our farmers got rich— they sold their wheat for $2 a bushel. Unfortunately, the farmers in many states used their money to boom the prices of land and in the great Mississippi Valley acreage prices jumped several hundred per cent, and almost out of sight. Let us hope that such a mistake will not occur again—to spoil “farm relief” resulting from legitimate prices in foreign markets. The Agricultural Department sputtered some in the first few days of war and it issued a statement advising farmers to wipe out approximately 119 million dollars that had been advanced by the Government to farmers on surplus crops.
Boys Will Not Be Trained As Soldiers The Civilian Conservation Corps promptly denied one of the early war rumors that military training would be introduced in CCC camps, and that the Civilian Conservation Corps would become a recruiting agency for the Army and Navy. According to Director Robert Fechner there will be no such use of the CCC boys unless Congress enacts special legislation to that effect. That is unlikely! It will be remembered that there were similar rumors at the beginning of the World War that the Boy Scouts would be pressed into training and military service. In that instance it was made very plain that if anything of that kind was done it would be a violation of faith. Uncle Sam isn’t up to such tricks.
United States Bonds In the “new freedom” the stock market speculators have attempted to pound down prices of Government bonds. Evidently, the purpose was to reduce them to lower levels so that they might be bought in and held as investments, despite the existing low rates of interest. The financial powers of the Government immediately went into action and protected bond prices in the open market. This thing may occur at different times and when it does it must not be construed as a weakness of public finances. For—if you can’t trust your Government you can’t trust anything under the sun. And as long as you can trust the Govgovernment you can trust its bond issues.
The Banks Are Safe
The banks of America are safe—and they are managed with remarkable efficiency and economy. That is the substance of a recent statistical study of the experience of state chartered banks last year. The income of these banks was lower than during the year before, which was to be expected in the light of the decline in general business activity. However, the institutions’ net incomes were relatively stable in relation to gross income. In only one small state was a net loss for -the year shown. It is also significant that dividends paid were less than half of those paid in the preceding year. The banks, in other words, sharply reduced dividends in the interest of maximum safety and good banking practice.
Hull’s Trade Program Secretary of State Hull left the comfortable cushions of the Senate for opportunities that existed in the State Department to remodel the tariff policies of the United States, and to make trade agreements with nations around the globe. Hull is devoted to this theory of his, and he is pressing it at the present time as an ointment to rub on World War wounds, for the future.
Shame On You: Bermuda The pretty little garden of Bermuda has canceled its prohibition against the automobile. In accordance with the news reports this was done to make the islands more efficient to meet “war conditions.” Instead of sending that English Governor home and asking King George for a better one Bermuda surrenders to his lordly demands for an automobile, and compromises with an argument that “it is temporary.” The horse and buggy days are over for Bermuda—and that remained as one of the sentimental attractions.
“We Business Men” A recent appeal of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States to its members sounds a good deal like one of the old fireside chats. “God willing we shall avoid,” i. e., “the wrecking of great cultural and spiritual values which have been built painfully and slowly through generations of thought and effort ... we want peace in the world,” there’s a heart throb.
ROOSTER’S SRURS
By WALTER A. SHEAD In its payment of $700 per teaching unit to the public schools of Indiana, the state government is lifting approximately $14,000,000 annually from the backs of the taxpayers in the local subdivisions of government. * * * In other words this $14,000,000 is taken off real property and distributed on a basis of ability to pay through the Gross Income tax. And yet the Republican leaders hold this expenditure up as an increased cost of State Government. Of course it is not, but let’s assume that it is and compare some educational costs in Indiana. * * * Education is the' fourdation of any democracy. Thomas Jefferson believed that was true' when he bounded the public school system in the nation. It is only in countries where the people are kept in ignorance that dictators assume control.” * # * With a population which has increased by leaps and bounds during the past, two decades, the ramifications of education have increased with consequent increase in costs. This is true not only in Indiana, but in other states. * * * Fifty-one per cent of'the total cost of government in Indiana today is for education. In ♦1320 the cost of education was only 26 per cent of the total cost of government. In that year the total expenditures for education, including the institutions of Ifigher learning speh as the two state universities, was $6,058,000. In 1938 the cost of education totaled 24,232,000. * * * And of course in this increased, cost is included the $14,000,000 disbursed to the local communities from the gross income tax revenues. * * * So in the cost of education' alone in Indiana there is an increase of $18,000,000 over 1920. * * * The next largest state expenditure Is in the field of public welfare. These costs, while not strictly costs of state government, are included by the Republican leaders in their castigations that the cost of state government is soaring. These costs are also paid out of gross income tax collections. * * * In 1920 for instance, Indiana 1 didn’t care much about its needy or crippled children, its aged folks, its blind, or its dependent mothers and the total appropriations that year under the old state board of charities system was $43,585.26 or .19% of the total cost of government. * * * In 1938 the state’s shar« alone fofc public welfare totaled $5,196,000 or eleven per cent of the total cost of government. In other words, there has been an increase of almost eleven percent in these costs. But would you do away with them and go back to the $43,000 expenditure? * * * In these two fields alone the socalled cost of government has increased from 26.19 per cent in 1920 to 62 per cent in 1938. Take these two amounts $14,000,000 and $5,000,000 out of the cost and there has been a reduction in the other fields of government. Utility rates have been reduced $10,000,000 annually. Property taxes have been reduced $50,000,000 annually; $31,000,000 of state funds annually have been disbursed to local communities to relieve the local tax levy. During the past six years of Democratic control property tax reduction and reduction in utility rates accounts for a saving of approximately $360,000,000. * * * Would you do away with old age pensions, blind pensions? Would you eliminate the care now given needy children, or dependent and crippled children? Would you repeal the mothers’ pension law? If these are not properly state functions, do you want the counties to assume the responsibility and lose the federal aid given? That’s the policy Republicans adopted in the recent legislature.
Beware of Poison
“Do not believe of necessity everything you read or hear. Check up on it first,” said the President. In this appeal to the American citizen to preserve a neutral mind during the developments of the European war, the President warned against the new weapon of warfare, the thing which is called propaganda and which has become so much a part of our life. It was propaganda, which brought about the 1937 depression, at a time when the recovery was well on its way. It was rumor that stopped people from buying and sent many men and women back to the relief rolls. For it was buying power that made business and supported blsiness and when this stopped, people lost their jobs. It was the wse of propaganda which, directed by the forces of special privilege, which has hampered and made ineffective every move of the New Deal. It was this same use of propaganda which removed 650,000 of the unemployed from useful work and reduced their buying power to the point'of danger where private business, especially of the farmer and retailer is concerned. It was this same sort of scandal which has stirred up hatred among the people,, increased racial and religious animosity, and extended some of the old world enmities into this land of freedon. In the appeal that people do not believe of necessity all they read and hear, the President is asking that the American peoples protect themselves from the poison of a controlled press. He calls to attention that adulterated news can be more deadly than adulerated food—but that each person must be his own protector. The world long ago denounced poisoned wells and waters as inhuman in times of war. It has declared that poisoned beef can no longer be sold. It remains to destroy poisoned news, which is ever more dangerous.
THE ‘MISTAKES' OF ROOSEVELT
Brewers Convene On Public Service
rvREWERfc of America who have I ^ been conducting a three-fold . j educational, advertising and self-
Propaganda Press Ijaying J regulation campaign to align their
Industry with the public Interest, will review progress and plan future operations at the United Brewers Industrial Foundation’s Convention in New York City, on Wednes-
day, October 4.
All brewers in the country have been Invited to attend the Convention, to discuss long range plans for an industry which has made tax contributions, created employment and stimulated local business in six and a half years to the extent of 10 billion dollars. The Foundation was established three years ago as a non-profit organization to interpret the brewing industry to the public and the public to the industry. State directors of the industry’s self-regulatioi movement will present reports of active cooperation during the past year with local law enforcement officials to "clean-up or close-up” establishments where objectional conditions surround the sale of beer. This phase of the program is being pursued to date In Nebraska, Alabama, Kansas, Tennessee, North Carolina, Mississippi, Oklahoma and West Virgina. Plans for continuance of the selfregulation activities and of the newspaper advertising campaign which the Foundation has been conducting in many states will be discussed at the meeting. Following the Convention, brewers and their guests will participate in Brewing Industry Day at the New York World’s Fair on Thursday, October 5.
Down Hate Barrage Against President Starting with the beginning of Roosevelt’s second term, the propaganda press began to lay down its barrage upon the New Deal. The powers that control big business and the Tory press had de-, cided that the time had come to halt and destroy the New Deal. Every move made by the President was criticised and denounced. When he sent his message pleading for agreement among the foreign nations, they declared that he was attempting to get this country into a foreign war in the ibelief that it would re-elect him for another term. When he spoke at Chicago and said that there were steps “short of war” which could be taken to influence other nations of the determination of this country to live in a world of equal opportunity and peace, they said he was threatening these nations. When he braved the insults and defiance of dictators, t^iey said he wished to become a dictator. How quickly events answered each of these calumnies and libels. ■When the war became a reality, not a possibility, his ( declaration that he would use every effort in his power to see that no American hoy was sent to foreign lands to fight was an answer to those who had charge that he was willing to sacrifice them to his own ambitions. When he declared that we ishould do what could be done, without war,' to aid democracies by amending the neutrality act, which is anything but a real neutrality act, he announced his belief that only through democratic processes can this world advance towards the dream of the ages* “peace on earth, good will towards men.” When the propaganda machine was circulating the rumor that he was sympathetic with Communism, he was trying to protect the capitalistic system under which this country was built, from the threat of Communism. He had declared that this country can-furnish work for all workers, food for all people, opportunity for every youth under a democratic system much better than they can be offered by a , totalitarian state. He was attempting to remove our people from- the temptation that comes with despair and lack of opportun-
ity.
Most of all, he was building up a defense system that would challenge any foreign dictator who might be tempted by our greater wealth to invade this land. But make no mistake. The forces which have fought the New' Deal are still fighting. The men who dealt in libels and slanders still spread them. They will be more active in the future. What they really hate are the changes that must come to our economic structure and the things which make a broader spread of opportunity. That battle is still on. It will become more bitter in the immediate future. Watch out for the propa-
ganda machine. — o —

LONDONERS STILL PAY BILLS London—“London people are paying their hills as usual,” Donald Barber, secretary of the Retail Distributors’ association, declared. “The war has made no appreciable difference.”
TIMELY WARNING TO BIG BUSINESS
Townsend Says Buying Power of Workers Must Increase When the war is oyer, something more permanent must replace the jobs and buying power of those who have earned high wages in the making of munitions and implements of deStruhtiori. So warned Gov. M. Clifford Townsend, talking to big business executives who see lush days
ahead.
The only way to accomplish this, says the Governor, is to increase ihe buying power of workers and
perhaps shorten hours.
While others are thinking in terms of war and its possible profits' to a neutral nation, the Governor takes time out to look ahead. He wants no return to the things that happened after the last wa’ in which this couptry became in-
volved.
He remembers that in those days people acted as though the conditions were to last forever and engaged in a glorious spree of spending at high prices and gambling on* their profits. They had what the President called “fools gold”, which was something differ-
ent than gold.
So the Governor reminds business men that the only security that business can obtain is more customers and that the only way that there can be more customers is to place more money in the
pocketbook of workers.
A prosperity based on destruction soon ends. It kills its owp customers. The prosperity suggested by the Governor is permanent, for it deals with the greater comfort and happiness of human beings. The Governor gives a most timely warning, at a time when some peonle are likely tq lose their
heads.

Education and Jobs
Indiana stopped producing children in the early days of the do liression. Parents refrained from bringing children into a world where all that they could hope for in the years to come was a bread line or a Hooveryille. So they took pity upon the unborn, as well as pity for the living. That explains the present reduction of pupils in the first grades. At the same time the farsighted policy of "the Democratic party decided to keep their educational system intact and to make possible a high school education, or its equivalent for every boy and girl. Thai accounts for an increase in the high school of approximately the same number that disappeared from the lower grades, a matter ol some importance to those who think in terms of the future. For it has become more and more apparent that only those who are equipped mentally can survive in the new order brought about by inventions.'’ 1 The Federal Works Agency has just issued a report on the pe troleum and natural gas industries, showing that the use of these products is increasing and that in these fields, opportunities for work will be greater in the coming years, if— That “if” is an education equivalent to that of a high school education. They warn that thi& is an occupation which requires the equivalent of a high school education. “The delnand for unskilled labor in most branches of the industry is disappearing rapidly. For the bulk of the industry’s labor force, youths with high school education dr its equivalent are preferred as new employes. There is Itjtle hope for re-employment of older, untrained workers who have lost their jobs in the industry,” warns the government report. The same is probably true in all other walks of life. It is the trained map that gets the job and holds it. In this light, the record of. Indiana in preparing for tomorrow and its citizens takes on new importance. The Indiana boy and girl will be prepared for the world of tomorrow.
