WC NEED yOU. SOM NORTH CANTON. OHIO, WEDNESDAY, JULY 12, 1950 6c PER COPY Your Congressman In Washington Going On Vacation? Then Remember MFORE YOU LEAVI-OH THE Wfi$< AFTER YOUAAMVE- Being Well-Bred Conventions are the hall marks of civilized living. They are the traffic rules which man has adopted for the better conduct of his life. Their observance is the card proving his right to membership in a civilized .society. There is no law against pushing your neighbors aside in the street, but if you do so, you prove yourself a boor. There is no law against eating peas with a knife—but if you do, you mark yourself ill-bred and unused to the amentities of civilized society. There is .no law against discourtesy—but it just isn't practised by the kind of people you want to know. Conventions are designed for the protection of all. The common usage of society are ingrained in children from their earliest contacts with those around them. We do not condemn a child him.sclf for his bad manners, but we do comment caustically upon his home environment. To. those conventions with which we are all conversant, should now be added a new one. a person who condemus another not as an individual but because of the groups from which he comes, should be considered as guilty of bad breeding as he who transgresses any of the other more material conventions. It just isn't American, and it just isn't done by ladies and gentlemen in America. We should hold it as important to be kind as to be courteous, to speak fairly as well as truthfully, to respect our .neighbors' beliefs as we respect his possessions. And, likewise, we hold Lhat the man or group who seeks to impose his or its view;-; on us by main strength or deceit, is guilty of being ill-bred. That is but simple logic. What really irritates us most about the Communist is his ready demonstration o%ill-breeding, it seems to be an integral part cf the party line. We are .now entering on one' of the most trying ;\ears of our material life—a year which Avill mean greater stress upon our own tempers, ^reaier strains upon our mental balance. Let us resolve to conduct ourselves as well-bred people during this trying time. Let us be good American ladies and gentlemen first and set a seal upon our lips. Arguing as hotly as we will, let us observe the canons of fair play and decent speech and not indulge in generalized charges against anyone, ,not in mass condemnation of any group within our nation, nor in vitriolic attacks on any race, religion, class or color. Observing at all limes the conventions of society let us prove to the world that the democratic form of |>.)vernment with its freedom of speech for all people can still be not only the most civilized but the best bred form of government. Korea No Week-end Battle All Americans have been hoping for a quick result in the Korean fighting. We are still hopeful, but we must rid ourselves of the notion that the Korean Communists are a soft touch. We must realize that it is not a small army of native soldiers who are arrayed against us, but a well-trained, highly disciplined Communist force. They are the direct beneficiaries of the .Soviet Government, using Russian-made planes and equipment, trained in the use of their weapons by experienced Russian soldiers,and certain to be reinforced by Chinese Communists all along the line. North Korea is thickly populated, highly industrialized, and adjacent to Russia. Added to this is the factor of terrain. The hills of .South Korea make mechanized war as difficult as it has proven to be in Northern .Greece. The North Koreans have also chosen the time of fighting to coincide with the wet weather period when flying is frequently stalled. We have committed ourselves, and the United Nations has joined in the commitment to end this war. Let us not deceive ourselves into the complacent belief that it is only a week-end "policing" job. lt is a major conflict for us and the Western World, with victory an absolute necessity. Cutting Down The Mails There isn't any common sense in the cutback of theiiiail service now being made for the first time on a broad scale in peacetime history. All of a sudden, after \l'i years of progress, the Post Office Department has fallen.down. While Government offices all over the District of Columbia are bulging with hired help, the greatest peacetime service we have is cut down by political chiselers. The slow-down of the mail hits both businesses and individuals. A letter that" used to arrive over-night may be in the mails three,days..now.-That isn't common sense. Newspaper writers seldom offer "advice,'' but this once, we suggest: Write to your Congressman and Senator and object "to needlessly slowing down the United States mails. Your Congressman, John MeSweeney, voted in favor of cutting excise tax.es when the House pass- id the reduction .measure, 375-14. Earlier, a motion to send the bill ick to committee was rejected 1-17-23!). Your Congressman was against recommittal. The bill -cuts about $1 billion from wartime excise levies on consumer goods and services, and make up the loss .by hi.*>hu- income taxes on corporations in the amount o.f $433 billion yearly and the closing of legal loopholes in the present, law. Taxes are wiped out or reduced on luxuries, luggage, cosmetics, tires, ad- mirsions, travel fares, telephone bills, telegrams, .baby oils and powders, and other items. By an overwhelming vote of 34.5- 4, the House >passed the conference report cxtsuding the Selective Service Act to July 0, 1051. Under the conference .measure the President's existing power to draft young men is continued and he is given power to order ths National Guard and all Reserve components to immediate active duty lor a period not to j coa exceed 21 months. Your Congress^ man voted for extension of the draft. The House came through wilh the I'.quircd two -thirds vote to override a -ir-it-idential veto on a bill passed e.r.'hcr by the House to give within grade nay ,-aises to veterans in the Post Office Department. The bill provides for longevity credit to these veterans fri- time spent in military service even f hough they were ,..,t Post Oflie.-; Department employe's before such military service. The presidential veto was voted u'ow.i 213-72 after a motion to ret.onn111.i4. th? bill was defeated I 1.1-1 (io. Your Congressman voted against passage and in favor of rewiimittfil. Th ■ House nassed by voice vote a bill extending import-control authority over fats and oils and rice and rice proclur'.s for a one- year period from June 30, 10.10, after it had dofeaten a rocommit- tal Hint ion 72-2(i4. Your Congres ,- man voted against recommittal. Also passed after almost unanimous rejection of a recommittal motion, l-2(i(), was the bill providing for the organization of a constitutional government by the people of Puerto Rico. Your Con- trrpssman .voted against recommittal. Although the House is not in recess, no legislative business will bi transacted until July 10, unless the Korean war .situation warrant:- viimediate recall of House members. Mr. McfV.veeney took part, in debate on the .Supreme Court ruling in regard to tirlelands, takinr from. California, Louisiana and Texas, lands lying under waters adjacent to th'thr shores. He suggested that if the ruling did not co into elf"ct other state.; in'_,"lit make an effort to have their boundaries extended in like manner. He suggested also that otb<:r nations might even extend their soveroi_M)t,v. a? .Norway .did after the battle of Jutland, when she said she would consider it an .'unfriendly act for a foreign vessel of war to approach within Ll mites of her coast. Nat'l Air Races Postponed Until Armed Forces Day May 19-20,1951 The National Air Races, which for a number of years tave been held over Labor Day at the Cleveland Airport, will be postponed until the week-end of May 19-20, 1951, to coincide with Armed Forces Day.

How did the folks who stole secret, documents from our State Department during war time ever manage to get away with slaps on the wrist at a time wli';» boys in the Army might have been court martialed. for even thinking about secret documents?

Flood and Hail Loss to Nesting Game May Not Be Serious In the opinion of game management men' of the Wildlife Division, the flood and hail losses. in recent weeks to young rabbits and pheasants may not be felt by hunters this fall. A lot will depend on just how fast the mother rabbits and pheasants get back into production. rhea.sa.nts, as a rule, will nest only once during the regular spring nesting season provid-j—» ed the mother ringncck sees her _. , _ . brood through to the age at which] NOftll baMOn th.y can withstand the natural enemies of weather and predators. If her nest is destroyed before the eggs hatch, however, then she will usually start laying again and produce the brood even late in the nesting season, which' sometimes accounts for the half or three- iiuarte'r grown birds at shooting time. Pheasants become adults at from 1'2 to 13 weeks of age and! full grown, hut sometimes light in weight hy November 15th even if hatched the li_*ter part of July. In the ca*e of rabbits, normal production for the season includes fro ni three to five litters depending on conditions. Females of the first litter in the-yearly spring sonne- times will raise a family of younr- before the summer is over and .accounts for young rabbits at hunting time. In one wav the heavy rains .haive been a blessing in disguise in that they have delayed hay imowing operations which has in some cases giving nesting .pheasants a chance to hatch their brood which might otherwise have, ibgen destroyed by the cutting bar. Wild game, when allowed to reproduce naturally in the fields- will usually compensate for adverse conditions and in the case of the heavy loss reported in recent weeks For the North Cantonite who wishes to be informed, the North Canton Library heartily recommends the. RE'FEREIifCE SHELF to which the (Library is a regular subscriber, lt serves as a public forum, presenting articles ott timely controversial questions. Each number (separately bound) is devoted to a single subject and gives background information and pro and con arguments from, current books and magazines, .followed by a comprehensive list of other sources. Outstanding 'Americans contribute articles to tlhe series. About six or seven nw topic are thus presented to .the American public. Here are a number of subjects included in the series now available: Equality in America; Atorniic Bomb; Dilemma of Postwar Gerr many; Direct Election of the President; Should the Communist Party be Outlawed?; American Labor Unions: Organization, Aims and Power;. Economic Aid- to Europe; Inflation: Causes and Cures; New Forces in Asia. The. last topic is the most recent addition to the library collection and is certainly most timely in the light of the developments in Korea. Local Student *n Mexican Trip Robert Spier of North Canton ■ was one of live area students who accompanied the 2-1 from Kent- State university who left on a trip f"i- Mexico by car. They were accompanied by their history instructor, they plan to study first-hand th■; ancient and modern cultures of south borderland. The six-car caravan spent a day and night in New Orleans and arrived in Mexico City on July 1, Dr. Maury Baker, associate professor of history, is conductor of the trip. Mexico was chosen for the first field trip, Dr. Baker explained, "because it contains well-preserved evidence of all the main stages of its history, ancient, colonial and modern." The group studied Latin American history on the Kent campus for a week before leaving to gain background material for its venture in "on the spot" historical study. of trust'°s of the National Air Ra"':s, according to an announce-i nrnt made bv Frederick C.

Flood and Hail Loss to Nesting Game May Not Be Serious In the opinion of game management men' of the Wildlife Division, the flood and hail losses. in recent weeks to young rabbits and pheasants may not be felt by hunters this fall. A lot will depend on just how fast the mother rabbits and pheasants get back into production. rhea.sa.nts, as a rule, will nest only once during the regular spring nesting season provid-j—» ed the mother ringncck sees her _. , _ . brood through to the age at which] NOftll baMOn th.y can withstand the natural enemies of weather and predators. If her nest is destroyed before the eggs hatch, however, then she will usually start laying again and produce the brood even late in the nesting season, which' sometimes accounts for the half or three- iiuarte'r grown birds at shooting time. Pheasants become adults at from 1'2 to 13 weeks of age and! full grown, hut sometimes light in weight hy November 15th even if hatched the li_*ter part of July. In the ca*e of rabbits, normal production for the season includes fro ni three to five litters depending on conditions. Females of the first litter in the-yearly spring sonne- times will raise a family of younr- before the summer is over and .accounts for young rabbits at hunting time. In one wav the heavy rains .haive been a blessing in disguise in that they have delayed hay imowing operations which has in some cases giving nesting .pheasants a chance to hatch their brood which might otherwise have, ibgen destroyed by the cutting bar. Wild game, when allowed to reproduce naturally in the fields- will usually compensate for adverse conditions and in the case of the heavy loss reported in recent weeks For the North Cantonite who wishes to be informed, the North Canton Library heartily recommends the.
