To aggravate the baffling situation another presidential elec tion is at hand. So far the election issue has been held in suspense by Roosevelt, but when the bag is for mally opened there'll be a great deal of hullabaloo Garner, Dewey and McNutt combined have" created hardly a ripple on the election front with their talk. Attention continues to center around the plans of the President himself. With taxes and the budget, the army and the navy, peace and war, trade treaties, labor problems, farm subsidies and other problems facing it the Congress is apparently in for a tough session. The outlook for a continuation of farm subsidies is not very encour aging. The Secretary of the Treas ury has suggested that the best way to solve the problem of financing the subsidies is to eliminate the subsi dies. Hengy Wallace, Secretary of Agriculture, wants the subsidies and taxes to pay for them The farm vote is still recognized, hpt war and demands for defer are about to push the farmer out of thfc picture. Observers point out that iio material increase in taxes is ex pected, meaning that any defense program will be financed by de creased appmpriations to other de partments. And the eyes of the hun gry defense wolves are glued on farm subsidies and relief funds So it is quite apparent now that the farmer or the poverty stricken in other walks of life will finance the construction of some more top-heavy ships. Possibly anticipating a demand for more defense money, Wallace turned to the certificate plan"?of processing taxes on wheat, cotton, tobacco and rice to finance the par .ty payments A strong opposition to the plan is indicated, but a show down is not expected before about April. No material change in the neu trality law is expected, and it is very likely that the Congress will spend all of its time working on national problems. It is thought how ever, that some plan to aid Finland will be advanced. 4. J. Maxwell Announce?

December Issuance Marriage Licenses Smallest In Years Health liiHM Governing l**u anrr of Marriage LirenwH Has Telling Effect* The nfw health laws guvcrning .the issuance of marriage licenses greatly reduced the number of mar i lages in this county last year, the issuance for December reaching the | lowest point for any December since that big depression year. 1931. The records for the past nine months, the period the law has been in effect, show that couples went into other states to marry or that the marry mg business experieneed a telling set-back. While it is apparent that the new law has effected a decrease in marriages within the county and in the state, the value of the new rgulationa remains undisputed. Last month there were 28 licenses issued in the county, 1(1 to white und 12 to colored couples as compared with 35 to white and 28 colored cou ples a year ago. Last year there was a total of 159 licenses issued as against a total of 293 for 1938. Not since 1932 when a total of 155 li censes were issued has the number of marriages- remained at sut4i a low point in this county The rec ord low. however, was recorded in the great -depression year of 1931 when only 120 couples, 02 w hite and I 04-colored couples, entered into tin j bonds of matrimony In SIX out of the past nine yeurS, the number of licenses issued to col c?led coUPl^i hit^ 1MT11 ^lill'g' 1 ^^\t HIII but last year the number of white marriages?in the county exceeded the number of colored marriages by a slight margin or by a count of 81 and 78.
