DEPORT BERGER Is
DEMAND Of LEGION

The demand of the American Le-
gion, in convention assembled, at
Minneapolis, for the deportation of
Victor Berger, has the real ring of
straight Anericanisfn, says the Bos-
ton Transcript.
The resolution adopted called for
the enactment OF legislation by con-
gress under which the conduct Of
Berger will be punished by his depof.
tation to the country whence he
came. When the resolution was pro-
posed the delegation from Wisconsin
was on it's feet with the following
demand:
"The entire delegation from Wis
consin considers it a signal honor to
move, and we do move, the adoption
of this resolution"
Massachusetts followed suit with
another second, and the resolution
was adopted by accIamation.
Congress win make a serious mis-
take if it fails to heed this demand
Of the legion, for the legion, il max
ing it, is the voice of loyal America.
Berger is one of misunderstanding
minority in this country today for
whom America is unwilling longer to
make room.

SILVER FAMINE TO
BE HANDLED Under
THE PITTMAN ACT

PHILADELPHIA. = According to
private advices from Washington,
the government is not contemplating
any legislation at this time to meet
rising price of silver, but expects to
handle the situation under the Pitt
man act An official of the treasury
department said, "The Pittman act
contains ample authority for dealing
with any situation which may arise
The Pittman act, passed in April,
1918, authorizes the treasury to melt
and sell as bullion many millions
additional of silver dollars, and if
the treasury follows this course it
can throw metal on the market which
may for the time stem the rising
tendency of the silver market. Di
rector Baker of the mint said the
government does not contemplate
putting any embargo on expectation
of silver.
The Pittman act authorizes secre.
tary of the treasury to melt and sell
as bullion not in extess of 350,000,
900 standard silver dollars. The treas
showed that the stock Of money in
cluded 3OS, ,145,759 silver dollars, as
compared with 56S,269,513 April 1,
1918, reduction of 26O,123,7 ,754, which
represents dollars melted. This leaves
89,876, ,246 silver dollars which the
treasury can melt before maximum
figure named in the Pittman act is
reached.
AS the standard silver dollar con
tains 371.25 grains of pure silver, the
treasury by melting the S9,S76,246
silver dollars which it still has au-
thority to break up, can obtain 69,-
513,660 ounces of pure silver. This
is more than the silver production in
the United States in 1918, which, ac-
cording to latest estimates, was 81
S1O,139 ounces
Should the treasury melt silver
up " Iu0 lulI VI
35O,000,O00 authorized by the Pitt
man act there would remain a stock
Of silver dollars of 21S,269,513, con
tanning 16S,S17,S5 ounces of fine sill
yer, being more than the world pro-
duction of the white metal in 1917
placed at 1853 1892, 200 ounces. In event
of a further rise in the price silver
Of the treasury could ask congress
to pass emergency legislation author
izing it to dispose of the balance.
Under the Pittman act and new
authority the treasury could obtain
and sell maximum of 238,331, 400
ounces of fine silver, which at an
average value of $1.25 an ounce,
would have gross market value of
$297,914,352. For the 12 months end
cd September 80, 1919, silver imports
were $SO,57O,885 and exports 1884,
59S,5O0, showing an excess of exports
over imports of $184,O27,615.

THE KNOCKOUT BLOW FOR
ONE or THE '1SMs''

WHou we were UOyS, anu all QUIET
arguments failed, there was the
Knockout blow which either started
a fresh muss or ended all arguments
on the topic under discussion. Now
that we are men, we have incofpor-
ated in the language, a pugilistic
term, known as the knockout blow,
not SO many years Old either, but ia
our vocabulary to stay, says the Daily
News Record of New York.
The knockout blow was delivered
to one ism Sunday, and, contrary to
custom and apparently unconsciously,
an organization hit the knockout
blow on itself, what might be called
Unconscious suicide. The Tenants
league of the East Side had meet
ing, addressed almost exclusively by
nominees ON the Socialist ticket, and
the knockout blow was delivered ty
one of the speakers when he said:
"It is in the Socialist program that
the people shall take the homes, and
all the land, and keep it ALL"
This is nation Of homes. Nearly
every man has an ambition to own
his own home, wants a nest for his
family, and the great majority satisfy
that ambition, to a limited extent in
this great metropolis, which after
all is only a mole hill in comparison
with the rest of the country. 1t is
still common law that every mans
house is his castle, and what he will
defend first in his home and its con-
tents.
Why should anybody, in view of
the above facts, do more than smile
at, on sheer at, political movement,
under name, which has as one Of its
intents the seizure Of homes? Any
man must be simple, ordinary fool
if he worries over an .impossibility
like that. The Socialist party COM
mitted Involuntary suicide, knocked
itself out with the proposition.
AHu ~ IL 10 Will d very large part
of the prevailing so-called unrest"
with the socializing of basic indus
tries, and similar ''isms" which have
been aired in the last few weeks A
nation of home owners will have
none of them and to the credit Of
labor must go the stand taken by so
many of the conservative leaders
against the idiotic propositions of
some of the radicals.
Be reasonable for d half minute
and think of the numEer of homes in
this country, of the amount of saw
ings everywhere, or the proportion
of workers to idlers, and then admit
that worry over Bolshevism, the
nasty forms of Socialism, the tenets
of anarchy, ETC., is wasted energy,
and foolish brain strain. Nothing
could be more Impossible than to-
imagine that the common sense of
the American people had suddenly
left it, and that in the change that
people became ready to sacrifice all
that it had obtained, and saved, and
earned to take a chance with the
red horrors that have devastated
Russia.
The thing is simply preposterous.
Dr.. Henry van Dyke, in sermon
recently, put the whole question in!
one paragraph:
"The most perfect example of So
cialism is a swarm of bees where
all personality is lost every member
gets the same pay, board and lodging,
and the only object is to perpetuate
the swarm and keep the hive full.
But they never produce a Better bee
nor more perfect hive. Is man.
kind to come down to that level?"

Highest Average
For the Season
All Records Were Broken To-
day On the Price Of
Burnley Tobacco.

Just as we go to press this after
noon we learn that the highest aver
age price has been paid today for to-
bacco since the market opened. And
this is saying a great deal, for tobacco
has been bringing startling prices
from the very opening Of the local
market.
We are told that the average on
the Banner warehouse floor today was
around forty-two cents. The average
has reached 35c several days, but this
is the first time it has gone over the
forty cent mark if we remember cor
rectly. An this goes to bear out the
statement of warehouse men and to-
bacco buyers at the very opening Of
the market that prices would continue
to get better as the sales advanced.
Mr.. Daily Rambo, a gentleman well
known to hundreds of Daily Sun
readers, and one Of the best citizens
of the south side of the river, told

who would have made similar state

Warehouse men tell us that if the
distribution Of tobacco seed counts
for anything, there will be record
breaking crop raised in Greene coun-
ty the coming season. Farmers who
have never grown tobacco--men who
have been content to grow wheat and
corn, stock men who have realized
good money from theis industry, all
of one accord, are going into the to-
bacco raising business this year. They
all realize that there is more money
in raising hurley tobacco than any
thing else just now. And this is be-
ing done with the full knowledge or
advise Of men who should know, that
the present high prices will prevail
for several years to come.

FARM PROSPERITY
IN GRAVE DANGER
Hastings Declares Greater Food Pro-

tenanes OF Agricultural
Prosperity

Atlanta, Ga. Especial. )--That there
Is a large element OF danger for
Southern farm prosperity in the pres
ent situation, is the firm belief OF II.
q. Hastings. President Of both the
Georgia State Chamber OF Commerce
and the Southeastern Fair Associa-
ton.
Mr.. Hastings repeated substantially
his statement OF year ago when he
said @Unthinking people are apt to
attribute the present measure OF farm
prosperity in the South to the high
price of cotton rather than to lbs real
cause.
Just as soon as peace began to APP
pear probable last fall, there was a
distinct let-up in the planting Of wheat.
oats and other small grains. One
Georgia cotton farmer s1id to me, III
we are going to have peace, we are
not going to plant any wheat in my
neighborhood.'
"Of course the high price of cot
ton has helped, but IL it had not been
for the increased supply Of bread,
meat, vegetables, grain and forage
made on the farms, there would have
been little prosperity for any one but
the supply merchant. Cotton was and
Is relatively lower in price than food
stuffs, and will continue to be for
years to come.
IAN extra two or three million
bales in the 1919 cotton crop will
smash present attractive prices, while
the worldwide demand for bread and
meat and the disorganization OF food
production in Europe incident to the
war, means high food prices every
where for years to come.
"High food prices are a certainty
and low cotton prices are an equal
certainty If the food and grain acres
of 1916, 1917 and 1918 are thrown back
into cotton in 1919. Herein lies the
danger to our present farm prosper
ity. II we go Dack 10 our OLD before
the.war system Of growing all cotton
and buying all food and grain, we will
get another Jolt like 1914 with rea-
sonable certainty.
present Southern farm prosperity
can be maintained in one way only.
Produce on home acres, so far as pos.
sible, every pound Of food, vegetables,
grain, hay and forage needed by fam.
ily and livestock, then put every other
available acre in cotton or other cash
crop This method means cash crops
made with little or no debt--the crop
owned by the producer at the end Of
the season instead Of owed to the
supply merchant
Food and grain production suff
cient for home needs, insures contin.
ued farm prosperity Dropping back
to the old way means debt like min
stone around the farmers neck"
