"Before the days of health departâ€" ments, the prevalence of disease in communities was a problem . of great concern.

Potâ€" THURSDAY, MARCH 14, 1940 at In West Deerfield Is a Big Success They came from all parts of the township and the county to jam the Deerfield Grammar School auditorâ€" ium. Nothing like this political meeting has ever taken place in the village of Deerfleld for a long time. Five hundred people listened intentâ€" ly for two and oneâ€"half hours withâ€" out getting restless while thirtyâ€" four candidates briefly told their stories. Mr. William Marks of the Lake County Central committee atâ€" tended the meeting and gave a very fine talk on the two party system of political government. The meeting opened with an adâ€" dress by Mr. Erwin Seago, chairman of the West Deerfleld Township est to everybody it is quoted in full as follows: "On behalf of the West Deerfield Township Young Republican club we welcome you to this rally or forum, which is for the benefit of the citizens and voters of the comâ€" munity, and for the benefit of all candidates seeking election to public office. We wish to express our appreâ€" ciation to the Board of Education and to the officials of the Deerfield Grammar school in helping us and the community and the candidates to come together. The board of eduâ€" cation made an exception at this time in throwing the school open for this meeting and the West Deerfield Township Young Republican club has returned the cooperation by more than amply reimbursing the board of education for the necessary costs in opening this room for us, and we hope that the community will join with us in thanking the board of education in this respect. "There has always been some question in all of our minds as to the real purpose of any soâ€"called young Democratic organization or young Republican organization, but I believe that whatever their other purposes, there is one purpose with which we can all agree, and that is to get the voters out. This is our objective, and in these times as in any other time, it is our ever presâ€" ent obligation to realize the importâ€" ance and duty of exercising our votâ€" ing franchise in order to keep a democracy. _ The West Deerfield Township Young Republican club has consistently taken the position that in this matter it is nonpartisan. To that end we have invited all canâ€" didates for public office who will apâ€" pear on your ballot. Naturally, some of them cannot attend, but we have extended the invitation to all candidates. oung Repusiican w As it has been indicated to me it is such an occasion as this that gives a voter the one and real opportunity to see, hear and meet the various candidates and to make his decision. "We consider our meeting here in the nature of a forum or in the naâ€" ture of a New England town hall meeting and we trust that you will appreciate our efforts in attempting to bring to you the candidates and to give the various candidates &n opportunity to say something to you, "In arranging such a successful forum as this is, there has to be a great deal of time and effort put in by some individuals, and I think it proper to give credit where credit is due. We want you all to have a good time and to that end we have arranged for refreshments of cake and coffee at the end of the meeting. We have had an almost unbelievable «pontaneous enthusiasm on the part of various housewives in the comâ€" munity to help furnish the refreshâ€" monts. Our program and entertainâ€" ment committee has secured the services of many housewives in the community so that we have had de livered to us gratis fortyâ€"one cakes "Furthermore, there had to be many letters written and answered and plans worked out and several of the officers and members of the Young Republican club have given unstintinely of their time and efâ€" fort in this respect. Our secretary. Mr. John Struthers, our activity chairman, Mtr. Alexander and one of our delegates to the Lake County Federation who handled the publicâ€" ity Mr. Arthur Pearson, and also Mr. Guthrie, Dr. Pope, Gordon Claâ€" vey and others, deserve as much or more credit than any of us for the work that has been done. on the platform, and as we have to "Most of the thanks for the reâ€" freshments gues to Mrs. Ray Dobâ€" bins and Mr. Edward Jacobson reâ€" spective chairmen of the program and entertainment committee, and their various committee members, and we all on behalf of the organi zation and the guests and candiâ€" dates here, wish to extend to Mrs. Dobbins and Mr. Jacobson our rea‘ thanks. In atil watch our time we are going to keep the program moving along. "For your further entertainment and as an inducement to get a crowd here we have arranged for door prizes. Most of the door prizes have been made possible by donations from candidates. As the name of each candidate is called a name will come to the front he or she will reâ€" ceive a two dollar door prize. A final door prize has been arranged, and after the last candidate has talked a name will be drawn and the person whose name is drawn will be asked to come forward and receive this very fine radio, be drawn from this box and if the "We have arranged to introduce the candidates in the inverse order of the importance of their office, or in the reverse order that they apâ€" pear on your ballot. Accordingly, we will start with your local proâ€" cinct &ommitteemen and end â€" ii{; a representative of the candidate for present of the United States. "Further, to carry out our purâ€" pose of nonâ€"partisanship the candiâ€" dates will be called upon in alphaâ€" betical order. For reasons too numâ€" erous to mention the chair will do nothing more than introduce each candidate by name and office sought." ‘ _ At the conclusion of this address Mr. Erwin Seago proceeded to inâ€" troduce the candidates. The smoothâ€" ness with which the thirtyâ€"four canâ€" didates were presented stands as a the world." Three principal lines of argument are advanced â€" that the Trade Agreements Program should be kept (1) to promote national prosperity, (2) to promote scientific tariffâ€"makâ€" ing, (3) to promote world peace. On the prosperity front, the stateâ€" ment is that year after year prosâ€" perity is threatened with surpluses of farm and factory. Two ways have been employed by the federal government to solve the problem of the surpluses; reciprocal trade agreements to increase foreign marâ€" kets, and controlled production and marketing. We quote: "If new markets cannot be found for United States surpluses the number and variety of government restrictions on private production will probably increase." "Foreign trade not only benefits producers whose goods are exported, but it improves domestic markets." "National prosperity and foreign trade go hand in hand, and both have increased since the Trade Agreements Program was initiated. Since 1934 both foreign trade and the national income have increased by about oneâ€"fourth." The Tariff Act of 1930 is used as an illustration of the illogical and wasteful process of unscientific tarâ€" iffâ€"making. This Act represented a year and a half of work by Conâ€" gress, with 3,300 products involved, several hundred witnesses hbeard, proceedings filling 22 volumes, and in the end a‘ reluctant signature from President Hoover who said, "a more scientific and businessâ€"like meâ€" thod of tariff revision must be deâ€" vised." "For the first time in the history of the United States," the flier comâ€" ments, "a method of scientifically adjusting tariffs has proved successâ€" ful. The Trade Agreements Proâ€" gram â€" eliminates ‘logâ€"rolling‘ and minimizes vicious lobbying by speâ€" cial interests, in order that the genâ€" eral national interest may prevail." As to world peace, the reasoning is that the raising of tariff walls causes nations to extend boundaries to get materials and markets. The flier concludes: "In a warting world, the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Program should continue to operate in order to promote peaceful ecoâ€" nomic relations wherever possible. When wars abroad end, the Proâ€" gram should be ready to contribute to the rehabilitation of sane trade relations among all nations as a foundation for enduring peace." The Bethlehem Evangelical church, 815 Rosemary terrace, announces that for the next vesper service to be held Sunday afternoon, April 7, they have been very fortunate in being able to secure Miss Bernice I«bit, haâ€"pist of the Northwestern University Symphony orchestra, to present a half hour musical proâ€" gram on the harp. Her program which will be divided into two fifâ€" teen minute periods will be interâ€" spersed by a fifteen minute program by Dorothy Fehr Peterson, soprano of _ the â€" Bethichem _ Evangelical church choir. these monthly vesper services deâ€" voted to "The Ministry of Music."
