Roger Babson, the economist and
statlstlcian who is employed to do
the thinking for many of our finan,
clers, issues confidential reports TO his
semployers which usually state facts
without any equivocaton. Mr.. Babson
who can tell hawk from hand
saw-plainly foresees that the liz is
up for Big Business when the farmers
and city workers combine, and he
tells his capitalist clients as much in
report intended for their eyes alone.
The report follows:
Farmers and Unions Join Forces
The Farmers Nonpartisan league of
North Dakota and elsewhere meets
| with the labor unions in ST.. Paul to
see what can be done toward linking
the farmer as producer and the
worker as a consumer in defensive
alliance The same thing has hap
pened in California. In the South is
another farmers organization that is
looking in the same direction. This
; is an entirely new manifestation. The
farmer has been classed as a capitalist
| and has usually been regarded as anti
labor Every econoeaics writer has
listed the farmer as a conservative
force in this great class war. Here,
| then, is another tradition being broken
down. Developments in the farming
business during the last generation
tend to push the farmer into the new
classification. The labor forces will be
much strengthened by this REINFORCE
ment and the new alignment WILL
BE MUCH MORE IN AGREEMENT
WITH PRESENT CONDITIONS"
Heretofore Big Business mas reigned
supreme because it has been able to
divide the farmers and workers by
creating fancied class differences. Now
the workers and farmers are coming
to realize that their interests are
Identical and as a consequence Big
Business, or at least it's more clear
sighted spokesman like Mr.. Babson,
are commencing to see the handwrit.

The permission granted the Eastern
railroads by the Interstate Commerce
commission to reopen their application
for S per cent increase in freight
rates shows the necessity for prompt
action by manufacturers, shippers,
farmers associations and consumers
generally to prevent the granting Of
such increases. The public has q
right to demand that before higher
rates are granted the railroads effect
alr possible economies and establish 4
proper basis for honest dividend pay
Ing. Last year the railroads had the
largest net earnings ir their history,
and it is rather early for them to de-
mand higher rates.
Obviously higher rates will increase
the cost of living to the American poo
pie, who are not in position to bear
any greater burden. Several facts
should be taken into consideration by
the Interstate Commerce commission
before any increases are granted.
The railroads have capitalized the
increase in the value of the land they
therefor, and this increase amounts to
about 100000. The railroads were
given 100000 acres of land by the
federal government. They now in
clude a high value of this donated
land as part of the capital on which
they are entitled to earnings. The
American people are paying about
$240, 000, 900 every yea: as interest on
the land which they originally gave
the railroads. .:e
Bad Management to Blame.
The chief cause of the railroads
financial difficulty, where such exists,
Is bad management In the past, and
the public should not be compelled to
pay interest and earnings on '.watered
Stock" but that is exactly what the
railroads are asking.
The Bankers Railway Bulletin for
August asserts that the railroads made
&.2l Per cent. on their tnyastment lest

ST.PAUL PAPER SAySITC0STS
NO MORE TO PRODUCE MILK
NOW Than THREE YEARS AGO
This Remarkable Information Certainly Will Delight the Hearts
Of OaIymen Who Supposed That Feed and
Labor We're Much Higher

For the dairyman who feeds his
own feed and, with tn. help OF his
boys, does his own work, it costs no
more to produce a hundredweight Of
milk than it did three years ago."
Doesn't that sound familiar, Mr..
Farmer? Doesn't it remind you Of
what you yourself took for granted
three years ago? Where do you
think We got it? From some back
woods fat mer who has not yet felt the
influence Of the new economic move
ment among the farmers Not at all.
It came from the editorial page of
that oracle of Big Business, the St.
Paul Pioneer Press. 1t comes frorn
the paper that has doubted the wis
com Of curtailing the excess profits of
the great industrial trusts, that pleads
for an advance in railroad rates. and
that from time to time wakes indig-
nant over the high cost of living.
Farmer Stands at Bottom.
Do you, Mr.. Farmer, see where you
stand in the estimation of the Pioneer
Press? Just where you have always
stood: at the bottom of the economic
system IN the control of which you
have no part; in which your labor and
that of your sons has no economic
value and il which you cannot bar
gain for fair price for what you pro-
duce. You pay from two to three or
four times as much for the tools you
use. the c'tthes you wear, am: the
materials that enter into your produc-
ton than you did three years ago, but,

according to the Pioneer Press, that
makes 10 difference. Since yon feed
your own feed (wh: Il because YOU
grew it yourself, of course didn't cost
You anytl4ing), and do your own work,
with the help of your boys, you will
be expected to sell your milk on tho
basis of the cost three years ago. And,
OF course, you remainder that you did
not make anything three years ago.
But that doesn't matter-it is only the
work of yourself and your boys.
chiIdren's Work Don't Count.
Only the work of yourself and your
Doys-and of your wife aid daughe
tiers and young children! You didn't
use to count that anything and so
those to whom you sold your crops
got it foc nothing. The American
farmer has been doing that for half
century, and that is what the inter-
ests the Pioneer Press represents
would have you keep doing. The
average earnings of the American fam
lly on the farm is barely over $500
year. You should see to it that intol.
cradle condition does not continue.
NOW that you know where you have
stood, you will not allow your wives
and children to continue the slaves
OF a system as out of place in democ-
racy as the thumb screws and the
rack. You have seen the light of
economic justice and it lights you to
your goal. Neither the misrepresenta-
lions nor the threats CT the men who
nave eaten your substance can turn
you from it.
