THE DEVILS RESIGNATION
The devil sat by lake of fire

The devil sat by lake of fire
In pile of sulphur kegs;
His head was bowed upon his breast,
His tail between his legs.
A look of shame was on his face,
The sparks dropped from his eyes.
He sent his resignation
To the throne up in the skies.
I'm down and out" the devil said,
And he said it with sob;
"There are others who have me beat,
And l want to quit my job.
Hell isn't in it any more.
With the land along the Rhine.
Pm a has-been and a piker,
Therefore | resign.
One ammunition maker
With his bloody shot and shell,
Knows more about damnation
Than all the imps in hell.

WHAT AMERICA NEEDS is FARMERS
WHO OWN AND TILL THEIR FARMS
The Country Wants No Asiac lmmgraon-Wants No Con-
scription of Iabor-Wants No Absentee Landlords.

NEW YORK, Jan. 29.-What
America needs is millions of addition
al farmers who own their own farms
and are prosperous and contented.
What she is getting is rapid in
crease in farm tenantry and absentee
ownership, the disappearance of the
American farm laborer. the l. W. W.,
a acute food shortage, and the ex-
ploitation of the people by land spec
ulators.
This in substance. is what the
American Economic Association was
told at its annual meeting in Phila-
delphia the other day by Prof. Ell
wood Mead Of the University of Cal
ifornia, one of the country's fore
most experts and economists.
What Prof. Mead said at Philadel-
phia goes far to explain why we
have the I. W. W, why less than
half the cultivable land in the United
States is being used; why opportun-
ity on the land is cut off to all save
the rich; why people crowd together
in cities and work for whatever
wages the employing corporations
please TO give them; why there is an
agitation on foot for the importation
of Chinese coolies.
Prof. Mead did not declare for
taxation OF land valuss-an applica-
ton OF the single tax principle to
farm Iands-in 50 may words. But
a reading o. his article would con-
vince anyone that this remedy. spe-
officially urged by Herbert Quick OF
the Federal Farm Loan board and
by Samuel Gompers q the Ameri-
can Federation Of LABOR in a letter
10 Congressman kea-l-g. and more
recently by Arthur Brisban, is the
next great reform OF which progress
sive citizens must uri-e. Prof Mead's
paper in part follows
Little or nothing mas been done

pioneer life Or 70 protect cultivators
from being exploited ~ speculative
landowners Only Z small fraction
Of the public and was transferred

granted to corporations and States
which, in turn, sold mainly to spec
uIators. The nation mas been exploit
ed rather thar developed. Great land
ed estates have been created and
ruinoUsiy inflated land prices now
prevail.
THE consequences of this careless,
shortsighted, unsocial policy are
coming home to roost. We are be-
ginning To realize that the fortunes
made in land speculation come mainly
from the pockets Of the poor; that
our land policy is not creating an
economic democracy, but the reverse (;
that inflated prices OF unlmproved
land are like the watered stock of
a corporation-not an evidence of
prosperity, but an instrument for its
taxation.
Free Land Gone
There is growing belief that
something must be done to make
farm life more attractive; that
broader opportunities must be given
poor men to buy farms; that con-
tinued increase of nonresident own
ership Of land and the extention of
area cultivated by tenants must be
checked. The nation wants food. but
men to provide it cannot be had. The
movement of labor into the cities
goes on. The high cost of living has

I've buided your ships and your railroads,
I've worked in your factories and mines,
I've builded the roads you drive on
I've crushed the ripe grapes for your wines.
I've worked late at night or your garments
gathered the grain for your bread,
built the fine house that you live in,
printed the books you have read
I've linked two great together,
I've SPAWNED your rivers with STEEL
built your towering skyscrapers
And also your automobile.
I've out to wrecked ships in the life boats,
When the storm loudly cried for its prey;
I've guarded your house from marauders

Without the world could live;
And yet you would seek destroy me
With the meager pittance you give.
Today you may grind in slavery,
You can dictate to from the throne;
But tomorrow throw off my fetter,
And ready to claim what | own.
