Secretary Lane Believes War
 May Shatter American Ideas

A new and greater Europe grow ing out of the war now raging, with the peoples of the warning nations coming at fast to realization of the real liberty Americans gained long ago was pictured by Secretary of the Interior Franklin K. Lane, in an ad- dress before the Literary and His torical Association of North Caroli- na. Then would come, he added. a challenge to the United States "that we prove ourselves as against them, not on the field of battle. but in the field of service to people"
 In meeting this challenge he thought American traditions might have to be shattered to some degree.
 "The world recognizes" said MT. Lane, that nations may not live up- on their part, but must submit them selves to the pragmatic test, and we are to be put to test of all that we have of purpose and ingenuity to es- tablish the superiority of our form of government as working scheme for giving men what they want"
 Calls for Men Unafraid.
 Nowadays the cabinet official also said linen are wondering as to the future.
 "There may be much of envy and more of malice in current thought" he went on, "but underneath it all there is the feeling that if a nation is to have a full life it must devise methods by which it's citizens shall be insured against monopoly of op- portunity;
 "This is the meaning of many poli- cies, the full philosophy of which is not generally grapsed-the regula- tion of railroads and other public service corporations, the conservation of naturafr resources, the leasing of rubyic lands and water powers. the control of great combinations of wealth.
 "How these movements wi:i event. ually express themselves none can foretell. but in the process there will be some who will dogmatically con- tend that whatever is right" and others who will march under the red nag of revenge and expoliatfon. And in that day we must look for men to meet the false cry of both sides gentlemen unafraid" who will netth- CT be the money-hired buffers of the rich nor power-loving panderers to the poor"

Hits south's Conservatism.

In opening his address MT. Lane told of the shattering of some tradi- tions in the progress of the United States.
 When you see the West adopting or urging such measures as rrasi- dential primaries, the election of United States senators by popular vote, the initiative, the referendum, and the recall as means supplement. tary to representative governmel . you shudder in your .dignified way no doubt, at the audacity and irrev- erence of your crude countrymeI. .'' he said.
 What are the traditions of the people?" We are the heirs of all the ages." Our inheritance of tradi- tion is greater than that of any other people, for we trace back not alone to King John signing the Magma Char ta in that little stone hut by the river side, but to Brutus standing beside the slain Caesar, to Charles Martel with his battle-ax raised against the advancing horde, of an old-world civilization, to Martin Luther declar, ing his square-jawed policy of reli- gious liberty, to Columbus in the prov of his boat crying to his dis heartened crew. Sail on, sail on, sail on."
 "Irishman, Greek. Slav, and Sici- lian-all the nations of the world have poured their hopes and their history into this great melting pot, and the product will be-in fact. Is "a civilization. that is new in the sense that it is the blend of many, A New Civilization.
 and yet is as old as the Egyptians. Surely the real tradition of such a people is not any one way of do- ing a certain thing; certainly not any set and unalterable plan of proce- dure in affairs, nor even any fixed phrase expressive of general philos- ophy unless 1t comes from the uni versal heart of this strange new peo- pic. Why are we here" What Is our purpose?
 "These questions will give you the tradition of the American people, our supreme tradition--the one into which all others fall, and part of which they are-the right of man 60 govern himself, the right of property and to personal liberty. the right to freedom of speech. the right to. .nAalsAl

FARMERS
CROW WHEAT

With the price of wheat soaring,
South Jersey farmers are seriously
considering a return to the old-time
methods of farming, in which grain,
instead of truck and garden vegetables
was the staple crop. Comparatively
little grain has been grown in these
lower counties of the State in recent
years, because other crops have been
more profitable.
Now that wheat has gone several
points above the dollar mark per
bushel, however, the farmers see an
opportunity for putting lot of their
spare ground to work for next season
and growing grain at profit. A
threatened failure nf the white potato
crop in some sections, because of dis
eases, and low prices which have pre-
vailed during the last two summers
for fresh produce, are factors in in
fuencing the farmers to think of going
back to the growing of grain.
An average yield of fifty-five bush
els of wheat to the acre, which has
been made by some of the farmers in
Salem and Cumberland counties, who
have grown wheat on a small scale in
recent years, is considered exceptional
for this region; and farmers say that
If they could be sure of such a yield
at the prevailing prices, with promise
of even a higher rise before harvest,
there would be plenty of money in it,
as the actual labor of growing the
crop is small. Agricultural experts
say that the well-tilled south Jersey
farms, which have been highly ferti-
lized for the growing or potatoes and
crops of vegetables, should raise fine
crops of wheat.
Corn is now selling at high prices,
and some of the farmers are selling
much of this grain that they have had
stored and are feeding their cattle
with cottonseed meal, which, because
of the glut in the southern cotton
market, is now cheaper than it has
been for many years.
Speakers at the farmers institutes
that are now being held in this part of
the State are being piled with ques-
tions on all kinds Of grain culture.

GROSSCUP
BUILDING
Important Property in the
Mar ket.
The PRICE FIXED
No Necessity for Selling Property
for Purpose of Settling Up
the Estate.

For months it has been limited about
that this spring the property at Com
merce and Laurel streets, would have
to be sold for the purpose of settling
up the c. C. Grosscup estate. Recent
ly it has been many times suggested
that the property would likely be put
upon the market IN April. Tenants
of the property have to some extent
been somewhat exercised, there being
uncertainty with them as to the future.
Yesterday Mrs. A. E. Ledden, of
Clayton, one of the Grosscup family.
and who has charge of the importan,
property, was in Bridgeton and the
Pioneer chatetd with her for a little
time about the property.
When asked if the property had to
be sold shortly to settle up the estate.
Mrs. Ledden promptly replied in the
negative. She said there was no ne
cessity for a sale of the estate, nor
would it be sold for less than the
price agreed upon by the heirs, which
she stated was $4,000. Until the
property will attract that price, said
Mrs. Ledden, it will continue in the
Grosscup estate and rented by the es-
tate as it has been for many years.
Mrs. Ledden said she was contem-
plating remodelling the old Grosscup's
