Show THE RICH COUNTY REAPER, RANDOLPH. UTAH By VIRGINIA VALE (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) IT. S. LABOR AND CARY CLOSED SHOP LAST SPRING, W. O. Hart, editor of the Orange (Calif.) Daily News, under a heading The Fifth Freedom, wrote and printed an editorial which has attracted nationwide interest and has been reprinted from the Pacific to the Atlantic Air Chiefs Nazi Lowlands Loot Seized Here seaboard. In that editorial, Hart demanded for American workers the right to employment without the payment of tribute to labor racketeers; the right to join or not to join a union, as they chose. He insisted the right to work was the basic right of all freedoms, that without it all other rights were valueless. The closed shop principle, for which labor racketeers are contending, is a violation of the constitutional privilege of the more than 50 million American workers now employed, of which only about are members of unions. Labor racketeers would say to the s that they could other not work to support themselves and their families without paying tribute such amount of tribute as the racketeers may levy. We have been suffering from minority rule. Congress has listened to these organized blocs in the matter of legislation. Congress has failed to realize they are but minorities and do not represent a majority of the American people.

To make matters worse, they had to make four takes before the scene was right which meant four kicks, four descents into ry the mud for March. Since 1913 many new gadgets have been added to the national government. New departments, new bureaus, new commissions have been added, but the machine is not more easily operated and it does not provide any additional pleasures for us average Americans. But government does sell at a much higher price. In 1913 the national government cost for each man, woman and child in the nation the modest sum of $7.17, or a total of $692,000,000 for all of us. By 1939 the new gadgets brought the cost for each of us up to $69.76, a total of $9,142,000,000 for all of us. In 1939 we were not paying for any war preparations, as we are George Brent had his first kissing scene with Olivia de Havilland in In This Our Life. the forthcoming While they were making it Ann Sheridan, who works for the same studio, was on the set watching, and Go Brent seemed a bit bashful. ahead, George, and give her a real Just pretend kiss, urged Ann. that Annie doesnt live here any A week later, Ann and more.

Such land prices encouraged them to buymortat exorbitant values and the gage holders closed them out when neither principal nor interest could be paid as prices dropped to normal, or below, after the close of the war. In this war America does not have the problem of feeding the greater part of Europe, as it did from 1914 to 1919. Now our one customer is England. But war does make a difference. Top price of wheat in 1939 was 72)4 cents. In 1941, top price not enough to encourwas $1.28 age high land values.
