on the Shantung amendment to the

that the vote would be close, support

that it would be defeated.
At the outset OF the debate Senator
Kellogg, Republican, Minnesota, an
rounCed his opposition to the amend
ment, declaring it would be inconSist-

to dictate in the far east now, after
remaining silent while Germany and
other nations had seized territory
there in years past.

ardship and tell of what happened in
Washington. Since then 1 have been
in Illinois, Indiana and Ohio and ]
have good notion of what farmers
in the Corn Belt think of it all.
AN ULTIMATUM TO ORGANIZED
LABOR
In the first place these men went to
Washington, not just because the
President had vetoed the Daylight
Saving Repeal Bill but because the
problem of reducing the high cost of
living was up in Congress and the
whole discussion seemed to revolve
round how the prices of farm pro-
duce could be reduced. The five were
o. E. Bradfute, president of the Ohio
Farm Bureau Federation; J. G..
Brown, president, of the Indiana
Federation of Farmers Associations;
D. o. Thompson, secretary of the
Illinois Agricultural Association; ],
r. Howard, president of the Iowa
Farm Bureau Association; and F. c,
Croker, president of the Nebraska
Farm Bureau Association.
When Howard set out from Iowa
for Washington some Of his neigh
bors laughed at him.
whats the use of going to Wash
ington. Those fellows down there
won't even let you in to see them
much less listen to you or act on
anything you tell them. No politi-
clan ever had any use for the farmer
except at election time. You will
save the nation whole lot easier by
staying home to help harvest"
But once in Washington these five
men presented their case to the
Secretary of Agriculture, and Mr.
Houston was so impressed by their
statement that he arranged for them
to see President Wilson personally
and tell him their story. They talked
with the President for more than an
hour and answered number OF
questions.
A few days later, after four of them
had left, Mr.. Howard appeared be-
fore the joint agricultural committee
of the House and Senate and pre-
sented statement previously agreed
upon by all five, containing essen
TALLY the same facts given to the
President. So strong a case did he
make that the press associations SEM

Editorial Note.-The following
article was brought to our attention
by R. w. Kee1er, President of the
Stevens County Farm Bureau. We
found so much of value in it on pres
ent economic problems in general
and the farmers problem in parti-
cular that we found it impossible to
abbreviate it. We therefore sent to
The Country Gentleman, and OBJ
tanned special permission to reprint
the article entire in The Morris Tri-
bune. 1t is our opinion that the i'm
portance of the article justifes the
heavy expense of republishing it

Morris tribune., 1919-12-19

direct accord with it that President
! Wilson should refuse the wage de-
mands of the railroad men and quite
pointedly tell them that, in asking
for increased wages at this time, they
were in effect profteers- who
would boost the cost of living instead
of reducing it.
The reason why these things have
happened reminds me of a friend of
mine who once went to a country fair.
Outside a side show was a huge sign,
reading: "Ten cents to see the most
wonderful sight in the world" He
invested dime and what do you
suppose this wonderful sight was?
1t was ten farmers pulling together
on rope. Ten farmers pulling to-
gether! Truly a strange, wonderful
sight.
But J. r. Howard represented So
600 farmers, members of the Iowa
Farm Bureau Federation, who were
pulling together! And the other men
each represented about $4,000 farm
ers. Speaking as they did for the
u.
they represented nearly a million
farmers getting ready to pull togeth-
er. The day when the farmer can
be made a subject for a side show
has gone.
The fact that Congress repealed the
Daylight Saving Law was incidental
in itself. That it did so on the rec
ommendation of these farmers is of
fundamental Importance. I know
whereof speak when say that what
Howard told the joint committee,
plus the petition with the names Of
900 Iowa farmers on it gathered
by the Iowa federation, had a pro-
found effect on Congress.
This man Howard is just a plain
farmer from Iowa, where, on 400
acres, he plows and feeds hogs. He
is tall and stCop-shouldered and his
hair is turning gray. His trousers
may have been baggy at the knees
when he stood before the Congress
lsional committee-but Abe Lincoln
used to wear his that way too. No
matter. Congress listened to him
because he spoke with the voice of
those $4,000 members Of his Farm
Bureau Federation back home.
1t was fundamental, too, that these
men should give President Wilson the
backing that would enable him to
halt organized labor in its demands.
For more and more has organized
labor become despotic power, max
ing demands that are exorbitant, de-
mands that can be satisfied only at
the expense of some other class-too
Eoften the farmers.
One of the facts recited to Presi-
dent Wilson by the representatives Of
the farm bureaus was that a strike
Iof street-railway employees in
Illinois left small packing plant in
Morris tribune., 1919-12-19

When Congress recently passed the
Daylight Saving Repeal Bill over the
Presidents veto, it was largely be-
cause one farmer, speaking for four
others besides himself, told Congress
that it had to be done. On the face
of things it looked as if these five
farmers had more power in Congress
than did Woodrow Wilson. What it
really meant was that Congress paid
more heed to the American farmer
than it did to labor and business.
When President Wilson two weeks
after this denied the railway men an
increase in wages and emphatically
told organized labor that the way
to reduce the high cost of living was
not by granting exorbitant wage in
creases to them under threat of
their striking, he was but saying to
organized labor what these same
farmers responsible for the daylight
saving repeal had told him needed
to be said if living costs are to be re-
duced, business stabilized again and
adequate food produced for next
year.
This delegation of farmers, repre-
senting directly the federated county
farm bureaus of five states and in
directly some twenty-four federated
states, and speaking in effect for the
farmers of the nation, went to Wash
ington and accomplished something
that had never been done before.
They secured for the first time an
adequate hearing for the farmer and
his problems at the highest seat OF
government in the land-and were
listened to with respect.
The story of the visit of these i've
men to Washington was reported in
the daily press and in many city
daily it drew big headlines on the
front page. Probably it will be told
in detail in the pages of The Country
Gentleman before this article can be
printed. But so important is it that
I want to tell it over again as 1t
looks to folks out in Ohio and In
diana and Illinois and Iowa.
