HAKHYL. PORTER. JR. Editor and Puhlisher Office Phone 4 — Home Phone 904 THURSDAY, JAN. 4, 1934 CENSORSHIP. Gen. Johnson challenges any one to produce evidence that he ever tried in any way to influence radio criticisms. He says radio censorship ia a bugaboo and newspaper censorship more of the same. No one is trying to indict the general personally. The thing is not so simple as that. Government is not one man. One man may talk about his personal views but find that trends and drifts carry him along. In August, H. A. Lafount of the federal radio commission said it was “the patriotic if not the bounden and legal duty of all licensees of radio broadcasting stations to deny their facilities to advertisers who are disposed tp defy, ignore or modify the codes established by the NRA. ” Mr. Lafount added that the character of the programs broadcast would be taken into consideration when application was made for a renewal of license. That was not Gen. Johnson talking, but it was another member of the bureaucracy, another officer in the government organisation closely knit for the accomplishment of governmental purposes. It was not Gen. Johnson who endeavored to curb an Alabama editor’s expression of opinion. It was a field officer working for the general. It was not Gen. Johnson personally who took the Blue Eagle away from the Massachusetts clothier whose firm’s advertisement said the Blue Eagle had been blue luck. It was the slate compliance board backed up in Washington. All governments have some qualities in common. There ar< instincts which persist because they are natural. Among them is the instinct to suppress opposition. In calm, reflective moments statesmen devise protections which shall prevail in excited moments. Gen. Johnson thinks his critics are excited. In fact, be is. They ask that the guarantees of calm moments be recognized as prevailing how Tn times of high pressure. Such recognition detracts nothing from the constitutional authority of government; it adds nothing to the privileges of citizenship. —Chicago Tribune. > WEATHER REPORT Saturday evening, Dec. 23, thermometers in Syracuse showed temperature standing at 52 degrees above zero.

Republican Headquarters Say: McNutt’s first year may set a new record for disbursements —to exceed 53 million dollars is the forecast. * Having failed to live within its income for 12 months, the state finds itself, poorer by 4 million dollars as compared with last January when McNutt took office with almost 18 million dollars on hand. The enactment of “ripper laws” power to abolteh budgets or wreck them without being answeraable to anyone. Mussolini Acts. Property tax has increased over the state with a 16 million dollar increase in new taxes. At Special session of legislature Gov. Leslie slashed salaries of all public officiate on an average of 15 per cent and enacted $1.50 tax limit law. Model liquor law has been a boomerang, in fact it exists in writing only, today. The more populous centers claim the open saloon hi s returned. Politics and graft have run riot in the licensing system. “A Christmas Tree.” Municipal Rights League claim the law was written by utility lawyers and is - pro-utility measure. Act makes impossible rather than possible, municipal ownership because, features. Wholes: le political changes in prison offices demoralized personal of state prison. Ten prisoners escaped, spreading terror and new crime wave. If McNutt administration ■ discharges obligations it has made, the state will end up five million dollars in the red next June.

Ho! So there’s been a resumption of th' Protestant Reformation in Germany, has there—only maybe with reverse motion? Historic times there, yes—but be they makln’ history or unmakin’ it? The Pope always said to Protestants, “You’ll fail, and,come back to me.” For he knew that Monarchy, not Democracy was capturing Protestant religious leadership in Germany, England, etc and that that would not satisfy the people! Unmaking History. Hitler and the Nazis in Germany think the Bible is Jewish, and that the Old Testament te obsolete. If so, . they should throw it away. But they , are wrong on both points. The Old Test; ment is the indispensible evidence and record of our his- ; tory and experience, of what we • were and of how we became what ;we are. It tells us what our leaders • did to us. To expunge, delete, it j would be not more justifiable than I the abolishing of all the-history of 'science back of say A. D. 1875, J thus losing all knowledge of Darwin, Newton, Aristotle. It is just as im- • portant to keep the history of religii ous ideas as it te the history of scien- : tific ideas. In fact, the Old Testament tea type, a prototype, of universal experience. It is Nordic, Chinese, as | well as Semitic. Mankind has always so accepted it. That is why mankind does accept it. Jews merely wrote and preserved the siory better, especially about The Ten Commandments. Local, “Jewish” j portions should be expunged, as of courses So understood, the Old Testament is the story of individuate striving to live together and yet defend their ; wholeness, their independence, and

Jones of Fort Wayne; Miss Cleors Hushewer, Miss Fern Pettengill, A. Oris Jones and Chas. Jones, all of South Bend. Mr. and Mrs. Orval G. Carr and family spent Sunday before Christmas at the home of Mr. Carr’s relatives at Silver Lake. When they returned to Syracuse that evening Dr. and Mrs. J. C. Hay accompanied them, and spent Christmas Day in Goshen at the home of Dr. E. L. Hay. o SUFFERS BROKEN LEG. At the corner of Harrison and Main streets, Thursday night, Dec. 21, Ned Harley, driving his father's car, accidentally struck Ralph Method, who was riding on his bicycle. Method had a bone fractured in his leg and will be unable to work for six weeks. His work at Bachman’s dairy te being taken care of by Emory Stettler.

their religious outlook, a* against a selfish, grasping I special organism, or organisms. It records what man accepts as Religious in his own nature and history. But when we read it, we should look for facts, as scientific men do—not for dogma. Facts are there—these eloquent religious facts: Moses and The Ten Commandment* and his Theocracy; forty yeass of religious resistance to. Theocracy in the Wilderness; centuries of misery under Theocracy; myriads of religious outbursts egainst Theocracy by Deborah, Gideon and other “Judg-* es” (of which the early Protestant . Reformation was merely a continuation), climaxed by Samuel’s religious overthrow of Theocracy; more centuries of misery from Monarchy and of religious theory opposed to Orthodox ways on principle, whether Theocratic or Monocratic, or both; its leaders always religious heretics —“Judges,” “Prophets," ’till Jesus crystalized that doctrine into “the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of Man. ’’ That heretical doctrine and its manifestations are now recognized as Democracy. If these experiences be not univers«.l, and if they be not supremely religious, why are they so prominently and so carefully retained and rehearsed in all Scriptures—Hebrew and Christian, , Nordic and Latin, > and among all advancing Nations and Tribes? Germany is rght to re-coil against her condition; but she should make history, not unmake it. She should resume where Kings and Potentates forced Luther to leave off. She should rediscover and redefine Democracy,/'' then march off into an immortality/ greater than any of them now even > dream of.

HOW TO KEEP OUT OF THE CEMETERY Thiss was clipped by Ellwood George from his Florida paper, and he offers it as suggestion to Indiana motorists. . ■* • Some rules of safety prepared by the state committee nominated by Gov. Dave Sholtx will keep many of our people out of the hospital and the cemetery if closely followed. . Read and observe: 1. See that your lights, front and rear, are in proper shape. 2. See that your horn, brakes and windshield wiper are working properly. 3. Stay on the right side of the road. 4. Don't run In and out of traffic. 5. Dim your lights for the other fellow. 6. If you are walking down the highway, walk on the left aid* of the road. 7. Don’t let anyone ride on your running board—especially children. 8. It is against the law for children under 16 years of age to drive an auto or truck. Don’t let your boy or girl do it; 9. Don’t let your children play in the middle of the street, or run from behind parked auto*. Don’t do it yourself. 10. Don’t dispute the right-of-way. A minute or two may save your life. 11. Don’t drive a truck without a mirror dr you will be arrested. ■' 12. If your equipment ia faulty in any way, don't use your vehicle. 13. Treat each accident ha if it were yourself. - . 14. Don’t park on th* highway without lights. If you must park for repair*, use only on* foot of pavement. It isn’t how good a driver you are —it’s how careless the other fellow te?-<—Exchange.
