Washington Letter

By Edward Keating a
Congressman from the third Colorado
district.
The Washington papers a few
day ago carried big headlines
reading something like this:
BRITISH INVESTOR, TO
CALL FARM LOANS.
Southern farmers must liqui-
date mortgages valued at 500,
OOO,O 900.
There was time when such
an announcement would have
created a panic in the South and
the evil effect of the disturbance
would have been felt all over the
country. That was before we
passed the national rural credits
law. Now Uncle Sam is in a
position to handle such an emer-
gency.
A few days after the above
item appeared the chairman of
the Federal Farm Loan Board is
sued an interview in which he
said:
Farmers need not be alarm
ed. If the British investors must
have their money they may have
it. We will see that the farmers
receive such funds as they need
Very reassuring and very prop
er. The American farmer has
the best security in the world aud
heshould be able to borrow money
as advantageously as any farmer
in the world. .-
For many years he was compel
led to pay exorbitant interest
rates and unreasonable commits
sion and renewal fees. While the
Federal farm loan act has been
in force only a few months. he
has secured some relief. We
have made a good beginning but
much remains to be done.
The nations financial resources
are being expended on war and
preparations for war. but the
needs of the farmer must not be
neglected. The farm loan ill
must be liberalized and new mark
cts opened up for the sales of the
bonds which will provide the
money required for the oper-
ations of the system. Congress
should address itself to this task
at the December session.
Colorado is begicnins to avail
itself of the benefits OF the new
system. A typical instance has
come to my attention from Weld
county. An owner of an irrigat-
ed farm was carrying a mortgage
of SO. 600 at seven per cent with
the usual commission and renew
al fees. He substituted govern
ment loan at five per cent, runn-
ming thirtysix years. He saved
$18O year in interest charge s
alone and in addition has the ad-
vantage of paying off the pin
cipal in small annual installments
At the end of thirty-six years
interest will cease and the debt
will be wiped out.

KEEP THE CHILDREN IN
SCHOOL. M1 sa

SCHOOL. ~
When the United States declar-
ed war on Germany a good many
educators lost their heads and
much silly talk about closing the
schools. in order that the children
might do their bit. Some Col
leges went so far as to offer to
credit students with time spent
at farm work and young men
abandoned the studies which
were to fit them to become law
yers, ply sicians, ETC., and wasted
months trying to keep out of .the
way of farmers who really under
stood their business. Fortunate
ly thisysteria is disappearing.
The same utterances of United
States Commissioner of Educat-
ion, P. P. Claxton have contribut
ed materially to bring about the
eaction In recent statement,
this eminent authority said.
Democracy requires for sue
cess universal knowledge, intell-
igence. and virtue of high degree
and must protect itself from
weakness and corruption from
within no less than from forceful
Invasion from without. Therefor
tits ofutmost Importance that dur
ing the continuance of the war
and through the years immediate
ly following there shall be no low
e.iug in efficiency Of our systems
of education. Schools and other
agencies of education must be
maintained at whatever neces-
sary cost and against all hurttul
interference with their regular
work except as may be necessary
for the national defense"
Of course, neither Commission
er Claxton nor any one else will
contend that there is not much
work in the home and on the farm
which the boys a-d girls may do
with beneficial results to them
selves and their parents. But all
this may be accomplished with
out serious interference with the
young peoples mental training.
NATIONALIZING THE RAIL-
ROADS.
The government is runnin ng the
railroads on the country just now
and some Of the results achieved
constitute an excellent argument
for government ownership Of the
means Of transportation.
In four months the war board
has reduced car shortage seventy
per cent. Fteight coag, stion at
important sniupirg paints has
be n averte1 by promptly moy-
ling cars from one.road to another
without regard to ownership. For
the month of J Iiy lone, an in
crease of 81 per cent, over. ten
million tons. was shown in the
shipment of coal. Approximate
ly twenty million miles of train
service per year was saved by
the eliminate IN OF the passenger
trains not essen .ial to The public
service.
Their are only a few items TAX
en- at random from a long list.
They all serve to demonstrate

NEGROES WARNED TO
REMAIN IN SOUTH

JACKSON, Miss.-ScOtt Wilson, an
educated negro Of Tougaloo College,
Mississippi, who recently came back
from East St. Louis, in addressing
negroes here said
Il will warn any negro to stay in
the South, where the white people
understand the COlored. Here they
are willing to let them live in peace
and as much prosperity as they will
WORK for. The appointed place of my
people is IN the Southern States,
where our needs have been studied
and We have been given what is best
for us. The black man is by nature
tiller of the soil, Wilson con
tinued, and he should stay where
there is room for him"
Wilson was one of the negroes
wounded in the recent riots at East
St. Louis. He was carried from the
r8ided zone by the militia.
