THE FUNDAMENTAL ISSUE

We cannot permanently shape
our course right on any inter-
national issue unless we are
sound on the domestic issues;
and the farm movement is the
fundamental issue-the one Is
sue which is even more basic
than the relations of capitalist
and workingman. The farm in
dustry cannot stop; the world
is never more than year from
starvation; the great war i'm

living without commensurateIy

men who produce the things on
which we live. The situation
has become grave-Theodore

The Western Union company Is
stated to have based It's action on the
delay by the department in makil

serted, however, that it was, in their
opinion, a step in retaliation for the
failure Of the department to permit
the landing of a cable at Miami, Fla.'

cable from South America.
Several months ago the Western
Union applied for an executivespermit
to land the cable at Miami, but the
State department was said to have de-

the Western Union and the British
company owning the connecting
South American cable line. The copy

was ordered to Miami At the sug-

Navy department sent destroyers to
the Florida port to keep the British
ship outside the three-mile limit. The
British embassy also took q hand In
the matter, ordering the captain OF
the vessel not to attempt to land the
cable.

been explained previously that the de-

the cable monopoly held by the British

The permit to land the cable still
was withheld.

Helyetia Announcement

The notice to the dairymen and pub
lie generally contained in the communi-
cation published on this page by the
Helvetia Milk Condensing Co. is of i'm
portance TO all citizens of the county.
That the company means business no
None who reads their statement can
Ndoubt, and that from their side Of the
question the oituation is very dis
is equally true. The re-
eeipts of milk at the condensery have
'declined nearly 40 per cent in two
years and there seems to be no pres
ent indication of change in the situa-
ton that would make profitable opera
tion of the plant possible. However
on the farmers side of the question
arises the fact that they, like all other
business men during the unusual times
that have existed since the war period
began, are trying to produce that
which according to price quotations
seems to be in greatest demand. 1t
may be mistaken policy but the mis-
take is general and everybody is doing
it. The Helvetia company has kept its
promises to its patrons in the fullest
measure as they claim and are today
paying the highest price for milk Of
eny concern doing business in the state
or this section of the country. 1t
would be with deepest regret that the
community would see the industry
closed but unless there is an early
change in market conditions, it seems
to be up to the business men here to
either adopt measures to encourage
the industry or see it closed.
