NEXT TERM WTLL BE PICNIC FOE PRESIDENT No matter who wins the coming election, a lonely and frequently very tired man is going to be occupying the White House during the next four years. The prospects are so dark it is a wonder any man would want the Job. For the country is in the midst of period of considerable stress, and the focal point of this stress will rest squarely in the middle of the executive mansion. Consider, for a moment, what the occupant will be up against. He will be forced to decide whe tfter the United States is going to owing to the right or to the left during the next four years Who the winner is, the pressure on him will be tremendous; and if he tries to hew a straight middle course will be greater than ever, for each side will accuse him of going in the wrong direction.

He uill have to direct the foreign policy of the most powerful nation in the world at a time when unless all observers are mistaken world will be in greater danger of stumbling into war than at time since 1918. He will be faced with the titanic task of erecting defenses against the drouth and erosion that have 1 some so dangerous to our future an agricultural nation. In so ways this will be one of his greatest tasks, since it involves nothing less than preserving the physical assets of the land from incalculable ural forces. He will be held responsible, right ly or wrongly, for the maintenance of American prosperity in a world which is following selfish and blind natinoalistic policies that lead away from prosperity. There will not be a great deal that he will be able to do about this, and he will have th comfort of knowing that, no mattei what course he follows, he will mee with determined opposition.

It is the same way with unem ployment. Here, again, the presl dent should not be held wholly res ponsible, or even chiefly responsible. for Hie growth or dtmimiation of that terrible problem. But his fel low citizens will blame him, just the same. It may be a well nigh lm possible task, but he will have find a solution.

Most important of all, he will have to furnish the people of America with a moral, and emotional rally ing point. The people are tired and confused, and they have been that way for years. They want desper ately to be drawn together, to be persuaded that there is a way they can follow, and to be led along that way. One of these days they mt some very distressing things if that conviction and that leadership not given them. It is going to bi to the president to meet that mand.

Jt is hard to think of any mat earth on whom more will depend than the President of the Un: States in the next four years. The campaign is beginning speed up, nnd hard things will be 6aid about both candidates for the next couple of months. Before get too emotional, we might stop give the winner, whoever he is Roosevelt or Landon our deepe. sympathy. EXECUTIVE RESPONSIBILITY Every administration is plnttue Bo doubt, by its misguided petty ficlaldom.

but we should think the New Deal must consider itself tioularly unfortunate just nov cause of such things as the Secret Service stew over the rubber doll counterfeiter This man, caught red handed nt admitting his deeds, actually engaged in printing numbers ai burlesque inscriptions on pieces oi rubber, the size and shape of paper dollars. But the rubber would stretch to almost any size, Illustrat ing inflation or how to make money go a long way. The inscription said "Unique Skates of America." Pitelv Wen sold them on toe streets, and children although not deceived quite amused. ut the Secret service, ever alert protect the currency, pounced upon the maker of this rubber loney and locked him up. Now, ouldn't that add to the gaiety of nations, illustrate the oppressiveness of our rulers and cost the adminls No detached onlooker could blame President Roosevelt for such fumb or even Chairman Farley.

They didn't know about it. But so far the rubber dollar man is concern and a lot of his friends, it was the government that did it. It is of such gnat stings that poli tical defeats are made. The CCC boys club a neighboring farmer's apple tree or tear down his fences and the old fellow forgets all about his benefits under the AAA. Almost any fool deputy marshal can cost the President as many votes as a ajor Increase in the income tax.

From now until the election we imagine the President and his cam paign manager will want to pray In their daily litany, "save us from rlumbness of some of our ap pointees. New York. Aug. 20 It is almost set phrase to speak of beautiful yet tne most sinning box office magnets of the day are what someone has called "tne un bcautiiul glammour girls." On th nage and screen it is the era of the ugly duckling. The girls without IT.

No actress has soared to more artistic heights the past years than Helen Hayes. She is not. of course, difficult on eye, but she would not carry away many beauty prlz likely no or. O. 0.

Mtintyre ller Period witn such a distinct persona! following Then there is Katharine Cornell who runs Miss Hayes a close second in dramatic popularity. She casts little physical appeal across the footlights. Out of the odeum she is the athletic type, given to tv togs, sometimes even frumpish. She Jokes about the back of her being as flat as a pancake. Lynn Fontanne has an exquisite complexion and that almost adds up her assets in the beauty But she has that indefinable quality dubbed charm.

Judith Anderson and Uka Chase are eligible, too, for the unbeautiful glamour list. The chorus may need beauty, but stars Ugly ducklings on the screen have been in the ascendency lor sorr time, too. The rise of the hoyde Patsy Kelly Is a notable exampl Patsy has a head of hair suggesting last year's mop, a go funnj eye, ton nose, voice like a gate's creak and a face that only a mother could love. But she has the divine spark of comedy and the gift of making it infectcious. So she should worry she is not a Maxlne Elliot.

Certainly Bill Fields and Wallace Beery an not John Barrymore. Yet any pro ducer will jump at the chance to le them write their own ticket. Una Merkel, Zasu Pitts and Melen Br erlck are also in the big pay not doing anything startling to hold the pillars of pulchritude. Week end stuff: Why is it there is always one person at a house party everybody thoroughly de tests? Joe Jackson is back in America after three years of touring Euro pean music halls. He was ai especial knock out in Berlin.

His tramp bicycle act has been a stand ard vaudeville turn for 15 years be fore the buckling of that amuse ment. Not then nor now has Jack son varied his costume or changed the routine of his mattoid mood i sinele iota. The truth is his is al most the perfection of pantomimic art. An art that makes his audi once believe he is just on the verge ni': fr mine a feat he never ac complishes. Those sheepish smiles and that triumph oi utility in try ing to put a torn cuff In his panta loons pockets are idiocies that never stale.

FARM HAND IS NOT LOCATED BY POLICE Greenville, Aug. 20 Despite an exhaustive search in all sections of western Ohio, police agencies here have been unable to find any trace of Glenn Fellers, 27 year old New Madison farm hand, missing since August 7, and fears of foul play are steadily growing. Fellers vanished on the night of August 7, and as far as is known there is no motive for his strange disappearance. SPRINGFIELD MAN TO BE ARRAIGNED Urbana, August 20 A Springfield man, John R.

The National Whirligig News Behind the News. WASHINGTON By Ray Tucker Pj The administration's po rlsn litlcal trouble squad are gluing their eyes on a certain na tionally known Democratic leader In a western state. Though nominally a New Deal sympathizer and erstwhile adviser, he has shown signs of "taking a walk" any public announcement. He was a key figure in FDR's campaign for the nomination and performed a deft job on the floor at Chicago. He was offered a high post early in 1933, but he declined It to remain in a law practice that grew more lucrative under the Roo sevelt administra tlon.

Subse quently a certain coolness developed, though he is still a frequeiv dinner guest at the White House. He thinks that he has been bad ly treated. He has informed frienis that the ingratitude of beneficiaries of his political Jobbing hurts. If he decides to seek revenge, he publicize it. He'll simply slip the word to his powerful personal machine that the fish might be bit ing well on Election Day.

If they are, it will mean the loss of his state. Ot Jfi. The next administration 1 Roosevelt's or Lan don's may see the disappearanc of a Senate bloc which has plagued presidents for forty years. Slowly the independent, individualistic and unpredictable band of Progressives is thinning. Senator William Edgar Borah, Senator James Cousins and Senator George Norris a redoubtable trio may be flereatea in itovemDev.

Mr Norris may not even run. though he has intimated privately that he will Senator Costigan of Colorado has retired and Senator Cutting died in an airplane accident.

A party of little n0ys and girls joined in the merry plans for the ninth birthday celebration of Frank Albright. when he celebrated Wednesday afternoon with a theater party at May's theater.

The Piqua Retail Merchants Association, although in favor of a possible change in location for the market, has yet no definite plans, according to A.

L. Thoma. president of the organization. Some weeks ago a committee appeared before the association petitioning that market be held in the morning Instead of afternoon hours. Mrs.

They lack a national reputation and they are inexperienced. None has the parliamentary astuteness of a Norris, the eloquence of a Borah, the force of a Johnson. Though rarely noted, this shift of political personnel in the upper chamber forecasts revolutionary changes in the realms of politics, legislation and government. President Roosevelt responsible for the breakup of their bloc. But in the same breath they concede that he did not set out to hack down senatorial liberals.

The development has been somewhat accidental. What's happened in many states where these men once ruled the roost Idaho, Michigan, New Mexico is that the liberals have become Roosevelt New Dealers. He wooed and won them in 1932 and he still holds many of them. Looking to him to realize their dreams in the national field, they have lost ardor and interest In local liberal movements. They are sitting in the stands cheering instead of taking part in the state The long range result may weaken the Progressive movement as hitherto known.

It may even de stroy it. For everybody admits that except for FDR the Democratic party is hopelessly Bourbonish. Nobody is visibly arising to take Mr. Roosevelt's place and harness the party to a settled anti Tory program. That opportunity seems passing further left.

lira so sort of shell shock when they ask for bids on battleships, cruisers, destroyers, at the expiration of the so called disarmament treaty on December 31. Manufacturers of essential equipment for the fleet engines, guns, control systems are grumbling. They are bitter over the new Vinson law prohibiting more than 10 per cent profit on navy contracts. Though highly technical, the government's restricting regulations on figuring costs and profits pain them even more sharply than the law itself. In some instances their profits may drop to an infinitesimal percentage or vanish entirely.

So makers of guns, engines and control gadgets may not even bid on new vessels. There is no law which can force them to be profit lessly patriotic. Navy yards may benefit from the situation, and already the leading citizens and officials of cities having federal naval factories are putting in their bids. White House with as large and complete a file on federal problems as FDR did when he set out on his flood and drought trip. The statisticians were busy for weeks in digging up facts and figures for him.

FDR wanted to be able to discuss flood and drought matters with local politicians and officials. He expects to convince them that he knows their local problems as well as they do and has a solution on tap. If they spread the news of his acquaintance with the flood's height at a certain hour on a certain street, or of the acres of corn withered by the sun, so much the better Mr. Roosevelt Is an extremely re an Pags Fivel I BARTEL IS NAMED AS VICE PRESIDENT Piqua Postmaster Honor ad at Meeting Held in Greenville on Wednesday.

The system may become a model for other states participating in the nation's social seourity program.

Boards administering ne puDiic welfare and unemployment com oensation acts passed by a special session of the Indiana legislature this vear have approved the merit system. The merit system provides that persons applying ior employment will be required to take ex aminations before being placed on the list of those eligible for appointment. Year's Residence Required Applicants must be citizens of the United States and must be residents of the state for at least one year, except in special cases. A Joint committee, comprised the personnel directors of the public welfare and unemployment compensation divisions, and another member to be appointed by tors of both divisions, will conduct the examinations. When a new em ploye is needed for a position within the divisions, tne personnel super visor will submit to the appointing officer the names of those with highest examination ratings.

Persons now employed in the two divisions will be required to take examinations to determine whether they are qualified to retain their positions. Probationary Period Set New employes will be hired for a probationary period of six months, during which they may be dis missed without the right to a hear ing. After the six month period has passed, nowever, any employe lac ing dismissal may demand a closed or public hearing before the board governing nis department. The personnel supervisor keep merit ratings on the work done by all employes, which may be used to determine salary increases, dismissals or demotions, and may be a factor in promotion Employes, under the system, are prohibited from participating in political activity other than to "express freely their views as citizens and to cast their votes."

Do not have them walk around or sit up. In all cases of serious injury, be sure to call a doctor. Anyone rendering first aid always should stay and not be in a hurry to move the injured.
