Whether it is a symbol that the
depression is over or whether the cows
are showing their grattitude for the
abundance of feed here this fall is not
known. However, they are doing their
best to aid their owners in getting
-past the hard times. A pair of twin
calves arrived on the G. E. Moor farm
one day last week, and on Sunday a
fine pair arrived at the Harry McGrew
place in the south part of town. All
of the calves are fine and husky. The

The first two days of the opening of

of shooting and cracking in the neigh

propitious for the man with the shot

and is growing “fat and sassy” on a
daily diet of wild fowl.

Our dry autumn weather was
dampened by an all-day rain Saturday.
This, combined with the natural raising
of water from below at this season
starts the lagging streams to flowing
and makes for wet spots in the
meadows.
Surely farmers in the drouth and
grasshopper section of a year ago have
reason to support President Hoover at
the polls. Federal aid in one way and
another came because it was felt at
I Washington that the farmers had a
I right to it as citizens. The large dis
! tribution of wheat and seed loans
! made it possible for many farmers to
! produce another crop, which they have
| in abundance this year. Turning
against the hand now that brought the
help is inconceivable.
Nebraska drys have every reason to
vote for Hoover. He has carried the
whole load of prohibition enforcement
as state and county authorities are
indifferent.
Surely the very numerous body of
! soverign voters known as the middle
classes through this extensive agri
cultural belt can not turn away from
one who has risen from their midst j
through various stages of upward pro-;
gress to become our chief executive]
and cast their votes for one who comes
to us with “great swelling words” but
who knows little and possibly cares
less about our industrial affairs. What
can a New York Tammany politician
do to give the farmers bigger crops
and better prices when our own in
imitable Brother Charley has not
done it?

(Continued from page 4.)
partisan appeal. I care not what your
party or creed is. I make it to you,
firstly as a friend, but secondly and
most important, as a citizen of the
greatest nation on earth—a nation
whose destiny, despite calumny, dis
sensions and mediocrity and the wil
fully destructive forces which drop to
the surface now and again, is to lead
to greater heights of spiritual well
being and material prosperity that we
have yet experienced, and to continue
to surpass all other nations as a place
where we and our children and their
children can live in safety, in the pur.
suit of happiness and in religious tol
erance.
“Let us, then, think straight on our
present duty in the light of current
events. Are we to be for the construc
tive forces at work to lead us on, up
and out to the sun-lit plateaus above,
or are we to go struggling along the
winding and darkened labyrinth of
local and partisan issues and so delay
the ultimate goal? Shall we turn our
backs on the general whose faith in
the outcome of the measures he is pur
suing in the fight against the depres
sion has never lagged, or are we to put
in a new and untried force and new
and untried measures?
“In any event you must realize that
by now I want such good things to
happen during the coming months that
you and yours may have a real cause
for thanksgiving in November, a truly
merry Christmas in December, and a
growing prosperity and happiness dur
ing every month of the coming year.”
Cutting Expenses
One of the general promises which
Governor Roosevelt has made during
the campaign, and most of them have
been general, is to the effect that he
will bring down taxes. Now, everyone
will admit that taxes ought to come
down. Governor Roosevelt concedes
that this is a matter for state and local
authorities rather than the national
governments, but declares that he will
give encouragement to the smaller
units of government and set ti e ex
ample. Just what this examp e will
be, he does not state. Perhap: it will
be in the matter of cutting off money
allotted to the states for the 1 uildir.g
of roads.
Put in this matter of cutting ex
penses we must judge the future by
i ... ..
the past, must guess what Governor
Roosevelt would do in the matter of
federal expense by what he has done
or failed to do as chief executive of
the great Empire State.
Take the matter of the state budget
for New York in the year 1932 as an
example. It is to be remembered that
Governor Roosevelt sught from the
New York legislature of 1932 a budget
of over $323,000,000. This is an in
crease of $90,000,000 over the amount
required for running the state during
the last year of the administration of
Gov. Alfred E. Smith. During the
time in which the population of the
state has increased thirty per cent
the budget has increased more than
400 per cent, most of it during Demo
cratic administrations and as the fig
ures show above, quite a little of it
in the administration of Governor
Roosevelt who is now preaching and
promising economy.
Since the year 1915 the expenses of
the state of New York have increased
terrifically and the biggest factor in
this increase has been the Roosevelt
administration’s budget.
Furthermore, when Governor Roose
velt submitted his budget of over $323,
000,000 to the Republican legislature
he challenged this body, controlled by
his political enemies, to show ways
and means for further reduction of the
budget. The Republican legislature
promptly answered this by an immed
iate reduction of over $21,000,000 to a
new total of $301,775,337. And most
of this reduction was made over the
strenuous opposition of Governor
Roosevelt and his friends in the legis
lature.
It is true that expenditures during
the past decade or two have increased
in all states, Republican and Demo
cratic alike, but it will be found on
analysis that in the states like Indiana,
which has been under Republican con
trol for the past sixteen years, the rate
of increase has been much less than in
the majority of the Democratic states.
No where in the nation are state finan
cial conditions worse than in many of
of the Southern states which have been
under Democratic control for a half
century. Florida and Mississippi come
to mind immediately as fair examples.
There is little doubt that greater
economy is needed in state and local
units of government. But if we are
to examine the record of the past
