Important Bill Passes

Both Houses of Congress have
passed a sound, comprehensive,
progressive rural credits bill.
Upon it's passage in both House
and Senate, the Republicans and
Progressives joined almost un-
animously with the Democrats in
voting for the measure. Why?
Simply because this addition to
the series of constructive laws
put through by Woodrow Wilson
will make available for the de-
velopment of agriculture a huge
reservoir of capital at fair and
reasonable interest rates. For
the sake of their individual polit-
ical fortunes, the opponents of
Wilson and Democracy dared not
vote against the bill. 1t would
have been political suicide.
The farmers of this country are
under a great debt of obligation
for this service. To whom? To
those who fell in line and voted
AYE" at the last minute, because
they had to? Or to the leadership
which initiated the fight and the
party which stood with and be-
hind its leader and put it over?"
Men of the fields, progressive
democracy under Woodrow Will
son stands for the just needs and
rights of the whole people of
these United States and their
political opponents in Congress
have formally admitted it by
their votes upon practically every
great reform measure that has
reached a vote.
