RECORD OF REPUBLICAN 80TH CONGRESS SUMMARIZED LY HOUSE MAJORITY LEADER Halleck Say* G.O.P. Kept Pledge to People
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — (Spe’cial) — continuous New Deal opposition spearheaded by President Truman, the 80th Congress under Republican leadership wrote a remarkable record of achievement to keep its pledges to the American people. The G. O. P. accomplishments have been outlined in a report prepared by Charles A. Halleck of Rensselaer, Representative in Congress from the Second Indiana District and Majority Leader in the House of Representatives. Mr. Halleck summarized the Re publican record as follows; The Republican Party— Balanced the Federal budget for the first time in 16 years. The 1948 fiscal year ended with the biggest Treasury surplus in all history— *8,419,469,843, seven times the previous high established 21 years ago. Shaved *7.000,000.000 off the public debt. Pruned New Deal padded budgets more than *6,000,000.000 and lopped off more billions in the hold-over wartime appropriations Slashed Federal income taxes *4.800,000,000 despite three Pres idential vetoes, with 71 p<*r cent of the tax relief going to those with incomes under *5.000; 7,400.000 wage earners in the lowest brackets removed from the tax rolls; married couples allowed to divide their income for tax pur poses and special relief for per sons over 65 and for the blind. Passed over Presidential veto the Taft-Hartley labor-manage ment act which has brought a sharp reduction in work stoppages, more constant and expanding production as a remedy for high prices, and higher annual wages for workers. Exposed Communist spy rings that obtained top national s*. curity secrets from confederates inside the Truman and former New Deal administrations. Strengthened national defense by unifying the armed services and by adopting a temporary »e lective service act. Passed 188 bills to meet the needs of war veterans; increased compensation for all disabled veterans and for dependent survivors of war dead; upped subsistence payments to World War 11 veterans in institutional training and allowances for student Gl’s; authorized cashing of G1 terminalleave bonds and granted hitrher pensions for Spanish - American War veterans and aids for veterans* housing. Freed the building industry of stifling rules, regulations and directives; stimulated construction through governmental guarantees of building loans; had government assume largo part of responsibility of veterans* loans and gave war veterans priority in homo building and rental of new homos. Adopted a long-range agricultural program pledging price Pre-Winter Repair Urged For All Homes Fall offers- the last chanco for home-owners to repair their houses before cold weather arrives. Building experts point out that living comfort is sacrificed if repairs are not made promptly and that winter makes work on the exterior of a house more difficult. It is advised that every homeowner inspect his bouse, even though repairs are not known to be needed. Authorities say that two main items to inspect are the roof and the heating plant. Where rooftn* has been damaged by hail, lightning, wind or falling objects and the damage is confined to one spot on the roof, repair sometimes is possible. However, if the roofing is in generally poor condition because of normal wear and tear, reroofing is advisable. Reroofing Advised H. R. Snoke of the National Bureau of Standards says, “There comes a time in the life of the roof on every permanent structure when it is no longer practicable or economical to effect repairs and, when that time comes, reroofing is the only solution." Building experts point out that some roofing, such as asphalt shingltes, can be laid on top of the old roofing to simplify application and make a stronger roof. Asphalt shingles also add fire-resis-tance >nd come in a wide variety of colors. Furnaces should be cleaned before the weather becomes so cool that a fire must be kept burning constantly. A clean furnace will provide better heat, use less fuel and last longer than a dirty heating plant Repairs Save Money U a furnace has not been inspected by a professional service man during the spring or summer, this work should be done in the fall A defect repaired before winter begins might keep a house from being heatless during the coldest time of the year. A repair man can often find and fix small leaks. Repairing of leaks and proper adjustment of automatic heating plants frequently result in using less fuel and, consequently, saving money. ■ 5* BARRELS A DAT As much as 50 barrels of water can evaporate from the leaves of a large elm tree during a hot, summer day, according to the U S. Department of Agriculture.
support for maximum production of food; appropriated *600,000,000 for soil conservation; provided large sums for rural electrification, rural road-building and enacted numerous laws to stabilise agriculture. j Appropriated *9,579,657,128 for relief of impoverished humanity in foreign countries to help reestablish their national economies and to restrain Communists* aggression. Joined the International Refugee Organisation and gave it | *71,073,900 to operate. Expanded social security by i passing over Presidential veto a I bill increasing payments for the needy, aged and blind and for each dependent child, thereby adding *184,000,000 annually to social security payments received by 3.500,000 persons. W’rote far-reaching and workable reclamation, river and harbor improvements and flood control legislation. Established a National Heart Institute to fight heart and circulation diseases; provided $28,400,000 for tho National Cancer Institute and created a National Institute of Dental Control.

Empowered the president to approve voluntary agreements among business firm* to retain and channel commodities in short supply to the most essential purposes. E-tended and strengthened the President** authority to control exports. Cieated special committees of tiie Fenate and House to insure a fail break to small businesses, especially in the award of government contracts for national de. sense and aid to foreign nations “Legislation enacted by th* 80th Congress,** Mr. Halleck declared, “will save America from President Truman’s disastrous progr»m of regimentation and reckless bureaucratic spending and will re-establish good government, freedom, security and happinesa tu our people. The Republican Congress has supported and protected the American way of life a.ainst attack by an administration whose alien philosophy of government* demands mor* and more power to control the people "The Republican Congress ha* delivered on it* pledge to the people. This pledge has been kept despite obstruction every step of the way by an administration that bred radicalism, that exploited ••lass, condoned extravagance, centralized power and authority in Washington and coddled Communists.'* STATE POLICE ISBVE WARNING TO MOTORISTS Indianapolis. Opt. 13 — Spiraling traffic deaths rn Inctiana today brought a grim warning from the State Police that the battle against highway tragedies is being lost. A 42 percent increase in persons killed in September lifted state-wide fatalities tex 745 in the first nine months of the year,, as compared with 78? in the same period a year ago. The sharp upturn slashed an imposing earlier 17 percent fatality decrease to five percent, which may be completely erased before the year ends if the trend continues. Staticians disclosed 364 deaths during October. November and December would send the 1948 toll to last year's mark of 1,109. A total of 322 fatalities was recorded in the final quarter of 1947. “The decision as to whether Indiana’s traffic record improves or becomes worse rests with the people who walk and drive.’* asserted Col. Robert Rossow. superintendent of State Police. History making advances have been made in the struggle to prevent traffic accidents, he said. State and local governmental units are attacking the problem more intelligently and vigorously than a few years ago, and hundreds of private groups are giving valuable assistance.. But the police official declared that "highway slaughter will decline only when drivers and pedestrians accept a personal responsibility to stop this waste of life and property.*’ Rural accidents claimed 534 lives in the first nine months of the year, as compared with 543 a year ago. A total of 211 died in urban crashes in the same period as against 244 in 1947. Last month’s 122 persons killed in traffic was the second highest monthly toll since 158 deaths in September, 1941. Last December 128 victims were recorded. Records also show 1941 as the peak year in state traffic fatalities with 1,478. Fred Hoopingarner and Orval Snobarger attended a Dodge Dealer and Sales Manager meeting in Fort Wayne, Monday.
I Lfo AJSTJEAD GEORGE & BEN SO 4 Setrtf. Would America Collapse? Soma wag once said that if we ahould suddenly do away with all advertising in the United States, >ur civilization would immediately :ollapae. This statement contains m ore truth than is at first apparent Th ere are those who refuse to see the importance of advertising in the economic lit* of the nation. Moreover, there are those who have sing led out this phase of trade and indui try tor strong criticism. Civilization today would colls pse if it were not bolstered up by An lerlean advertising. Today the res; of the world depends upon American production. Yet, too few people ecognize that this nation's great productive capacity could not have t een built up without advertising. Ag kin, there are too few people who :orrectly see advertising as the bulwark of American economic f reedom. Advertising is the golden key that has unlocked the door to plenty tor us aIL Greatest Users Our world-renowned standards of living were achieved because we found out how to produce in volu net bathtubs, cars, radios, cloth ing, food. We learned.how to make ’rise use of the human resources of v ork and brain-power. We learned to jarness water-power, steam, oil. {as, and all the others. We created machinery to do most of our hard w »rk. We learned the value of tools In brief, we have made our factcries hum. But is that all? By no means. The Socialist schemers have failed to evaluate their old slogan, “prciuctlon for use,” in the light of America's vast economy. Not only did we learn to produce, we have lea -ned to use. Americans are the wo‘ld’s greatest producers, and also the world’s greatest users. Better Price*, Quality There** more to it than just production. Ask any manufacturer, and he’ll tell you that the heart a hl* outfit is his sales force. The fellow* who sell and distribute good* n present the other half of our great mass production system. Your high production is fine, but it would d > no good unless the goods are placi d In the hands of consumers. Conti iu*d high output lowers the price. Get the picture? Selling and distribution simply could not do the job without advertising. Advertising not only sells goods, it always helps measural ly to lower prices and to increase iuality. When electric refrigerator* were first sold only a few thousand were made, and it took *6OO or mo t to buy one. But during fifteen ;rear* of advertising millions were sold, the price came down to a tout th of the original price, and the qvality was Improved greatly. Wake Up to Facts Socialists and Communist*. have had some success in attacking this part of American economic life. A few years ago a survey of 5,00( consumer* found that 72 per cost of those interviewed believed advertising increased costs to the consumer. Among high school teachert, thia figure reached *2 per ceft. An-

other survey, answered by 3,174 students in 33 colleges, revealed that 12 per cent considered advertising an economic waste. It is high time we woke up to the economic facts-of-life! Good and wise advertising is a vital part of free competitive enterprise. Naturally. advertising would be unnecessary in a dictatorship. The dictator could simply tell the people what to eat, wear, and enjoy. He would also tell them what they could not have. Under a system that permits no advertising, we would have two choices: a lower standard of living or a dictatorship. Mrs. O. P.
