PAGE FOUR Patton Courier, Established Oct. 1893 Union Press, Established May, 1935 THE UNION PRESS Combined with PATTON COURIER Published Every Thursday by Thos. A. Owens, 723 Fifth Avenue, Pat- ton, Pa., and Entered as second class mail matter May 7, 1936, at the post- office at Patton, Pa., under the Act of March 3, 1879. F. P. CAMMARATA, Business Mgr. THOS. A. OWENS... Editor Subscription, $2 Yearly in Advance. Advertising Rates on Application. The endeavor of the Union Press- Courier is to sincerely and honestly represent Trade Union Workers in eftorts to obtain economic freedom through organizations as advocated by the CIO and AFL, and we solicit the support of trade unions. Mater- ial for publication must be author- ized by the organization it repre- sents and signed by the President and secretary, and bear the seal. The Union Press-Courier gives its advertisers the advantage of the combined circulation of the two largest circulated weeklies in Cam- bria County and has a reader cov- erage that blankets Patton and the major mining towns. RANDOM THOUGHT One thing about the month of Feb. ruary is the fact that we get two legal | banking holidays during the month. | I d ON y > ocrats! Likely, the Republicans will This particular fact is pleasing to a| lot of country newspaper editors, who don’t have any worries the days the banks are closed. ° Now, that Assemblyman Rose of Johnstown, has introduced a bill to abolish one of the Judgeships in Cambria county, it is likely the en- tire matter will rest with the Repub- lican leaders of this county whether or not it will be pushed through the legislature. If the Republicans de- cide it will be stragetic from a vote- getting standpoint in the county el- ections this fall to campaign on the theory that they abolished a judge- ship, then Judge McKenrick will be out. On the other hand, if the Re- publicans, decide that they have suf- ficient vote-getting proclivities to el- ect their own successor to Judge Judge McKenrick, then its not likely there will be any sincere effort to sbolish the office. After all, it leads back to the fact that it was Republi- can legislatures and Republican ad- ministrations that gave us all our judges, anyway. ° Lots of our Democratic folks are | sing their jobs these days, — and, soon there will be lots more. Eddie McCloskey, boxing commissioner, re- ceived his pink slip last week. But Eddie wired the Governor and congra- tulated him on the choice made in his successors on the board. There will be lots of Democrats who won't do that. After all, why not? The cost of the telegram is'nt much. And one can al. | ways send it collect. | ° It is heartbreaking to us, indeed, | to see so many of our friends from ! the north of the county go away on | Florida vacations. That's something we feel like doing every winter, and | the only reason we don’t do it is for | & trivial reason — lack of sufficient wherewithal. Thus, we take the stand | of Alf Landon, even though we are New Dealers, and believe in rugged inaividualism—ithe kind that causes a man to bear ihe cinil winter winds and grin. Who wants to be a wek- | ling and a sissy, and go South? Not | us. OH NO!!! f | ° Dropped in to see Roy Eaton Dec- ker, former Patton Courier editor, in his sanctum — sanctorium last week over at tne Curwensville Herald. If any of Patton's old timers think that | Roy Eaton has forgoten the ola "North Star” they are mistaken. He can tell | you more of the Patton of the by-gone | days, and be accurate about it—than can our best local w. k. citizens. wert make one exception. 0 we A VALIANT POPE above statement, however, and permit Harry Buck to take no back seat to | Mr. Decker. We usually can take out the files of the Courier and discover that Mr. Buck has the dates of his re- miniscenes pretty well in memory. * Senator John J. Haluska in his Sen- ate Bill No. 9, at the present session of the legislature, has introduced a measure that should be of interest bath to farmers and to sportsmen. It has been referred to thee Com- mittee on Forestry, Game and Fish, and authorizes the Pennsylvania Game Commission to Compensate farmers for planting and leaving un- harvested certain crops for the feed- ing of deer. It is a practical thought, and would work out to the benefit of farmers and sporismen alike. It reads as follows: e Section 1. The Pennsylvania Game Commission is hereby authorized to make payments from the Game Fund to farmers who shall plant five acres or less of wheat, rye and other crop approved by the Commission and leave said crop standing and unharvested for the feeding of deer. Compensation shall be paid at the rate of $20 for each acre so planted and left wnharvested. Section 2. Tha Pennsylvania Game Commission shall direct payments un- der this act to be made in the manner provided by law after it has received proof that such crop has been planted and left standing and unharvested as provided in this act. ® Democrats can jitter and juggle am- ong themselves. Had they not done so, there might be a different tale to tell regarding state political power today. Republicans are heading straight at a jitter and juggle situation, too. Repub- | of the legislature. They will watch ev- i ery move and carefully scrutinize ev- | House or Senate. Organized labor made { much headway in beneficial legisla. lr rn —— lican State Chairman Torrence has is- sued his decree to the county chair- men. In each ccunty patronage com- mirttees are to be created and all fac. tions are to be represented. Let's take a look at Cambria county. In order that all have representation it would dave Ww clude the Johnstown City Hall Crowd, of which Dan Shields is emperor, the Young Republicans, the Anti-Young Republicans, the North- ern Cambria Republican Club, which has been growing by leaps and bounds since the election, the James-for-Gov- ernor boys, the Pinchot-for-Goveérnor outfit (and we had a lot of those fel- lows, too, right here in the north of the county), the wets, the drys, the church vote, the liquor dealers and the James Democrats (and, juaging by the vote there must have been a lot of the latter, too). When all these fac- tions get together, seeing eye-to-eye on patronage, won't that be sumpin’? » And what a bugaboo patronage is! Of course, one don’t read anything avout it now in the Johnstown Tri- bune, but nevertheless it is fact that a lot of the G. O. P. boys are get- ting a bit impatient. The Governor has a lot or other things to think about such as balancing the budget, etc.,, and has sort of been ignoring tie feliow who is looking for a “lit- tle job.” There are a mighty horde of these chaps and feminine chap. ees as well—many of whom will still be looking for a job four years from now. Jeaiousies will enter the | picture just as soon as some get the | available jobs, and others don’t. Look i at what patronage did to the Dem- | fare no better. Human naiure re- mains the same—regardless of party label. | ® The Harrisburg Telegraph, which is reputed to be in the Governor's con- fidence, remarks that it is generally believed that it will be well into the month of March before the Governor will be able to consider appointments to departments, but that meanwhile his personnel secretary will be listing applications. That practically means Governor James hasn't given anyone the power to hand out jobs just now; that the Governor is keeping them him- self. George Earle played it different- ly. He admitted he knew nothing ab- out patronage and turned it over to the state chairman. There are indica- tions, moreover, that Governor James is inclined to hand the “original Jah- es men—and women” the largest sli- ces of the juiciest bacon. That would be hard on the Pinchot boys in this county and elsewhere, and it would be hard, too, on the Republicans who took no particular interest in the primaries, but who did get out and “root like h—1” for the ticket at the general el- ection . Also, Gov. James has a lot more troubles aside from his budget and patronage worries. There are rumors that some of the big boys of the in- dustrial world who gave him rather generous financial backing at both the primary and general elections, do not at all like his stand on the tax question. The Governor said that while he can’t reduce any present taxes, he won't create new ones. In- dustrialists don't like taxes. They surely wanted their's reduced. But when a man becomes chief executive of Pennsylvania he likely is faced with facts that can’t be cast into the thin air. Campaign talks are easy. Administration is another matter. ° And organized labor has its eye on Governor James and the 1939 session ery hill that is presented in either the tion during the Earle administration, and won't take repeal of any of it laying down. Whether or not any at- tempts will be made to curtail labor's gains remains to be seen. But if the Republicans do attempt it, certainly they will be inviting additional trou- bles. r The great bell of St. Peter's that tolled for the death of Pius XI, says the New York Times, rings sorrowful- ly today in the heart of every believer in religion, freedom, peace. As Leo I saved Rome from Attila and Genseric, as Gregory the Great struggled against the Lombards, so Pius XI desisted the forces of violence and hate, the new persecutors of the church, the “pagan” myth-makers, the idolators of “race.” He stood valiantly for the City of God against the deified State, as earlier Popes against deified Roman and Holy Roman Empires. To the all absorbing state its citi- zens are mere unconsidered atoms, ex- isting only for the purposes of its pow- er. It is ready for any cruelty devot- ed to frankly material ends, worships itself and has no other faith. Pius XI, to the very edge of death, asserted al- ways with reasonableness and dignity the rights of the spirit, the ancient pieties and sanctities, the freedom of man against the impositions of total- itarian tyranny. He spoke not only for his time hallowed church. The whole free world heard and was quickened ky his utterance. He was a man of ample and various gifts. A humanist, a quiet scholar, fin- gering lovingly the manuscripts and the Ambrosian and the Vatican, he was a singularly able administrator. A lov- er of antiquity, he had the modern tcuch, as he showed in the renovation of the Vatican library and the install- ation of radio and telegraph systems connecting his little domain with his widespread spiritual dependncies. Am- ong his larger triumphs his settlement of the so long insoluble “Roman Question” will always be memorable. The Latern treaty of 1929 gave the Holy See independence and ended the State. ment, I ence, not territory,” he struck out of the agreement a proposed cession of | ground bevond the Vatican confines, Pius XI made his little domain— larger he would not have—a center ot | ing before Justice of the Peace D.
