AID
FOR THE FARMER
IN HARDING PLANS
Senator Addresses 10000 at
Picnic and Barbecue-Plea
for the Schools.

WEST JEFFERSON. Ohio. oct. A.
An old fashioned farmers basket pie
mic and barbecue at Wilson's Grove.
near here, offered the setting for
Warren @. Harding'a speech to-day.
Leaving Marion after breakfast, SEN
ator Harding motored 10 Wilson's
Grove, where ten thousand or more
farmers gathered from the great
central Ohio corn belt.
Advocating an agricultural ana in
dustrial policy to coordinate Ameri-
can resources for the common good.
Senator Harding said that zone for
all and all Tor one" must be the
motto Of individual effort " the
Nation a 70 achieve its full potenti-
alitios..
The Senator reiterated his belief
that farmers should be given the
right OF cooperative marketing,
should he encouraged through the
Federal farm loan system to own the
farms they live on. should be assured
stable transportation facilities and Z
stable labor supply and should be
given protection against unfair COM
petition from abroad. lie also advo-
Gated a better system OF rural educa-
tion and a higher standard OF farm
social welfare and declared that
Drofiteering must be squeezed out"
Discussing in detail the problem
OF rural education. Mr. Harding took
occasion 20 speak word for the
education Of adults in current events.
and asserted that such a movement
would constitute the true bulwark
against extreme radicalism."'
I'VE must zee TO H." he said. that
we Immediately raise the standards
OF rural education. We haVe just
awakened to the fact that the edu-
cation o fthe American child every
where has fallen below the, standard
necessary for the protection~of our
future. We have had to face tho
fact that our school teachers are
underpaid. We have had 10 face
the fact that IN physical training
civil government and American his
tory and the principles OF American
lam and Americanization we have
been deplorably delinquent.
But nowhere think IL there more
cause for alarm than In the fact that
the annual school term OF the rural
school In the United states only
averages 1877 days a year. We must
have no bureaucracy OF the Federal
Government In education. but we
owe II 20 tho childhood Of tho ma,
ton 10 place at its disposal that ut
most In education facilities.
IT Is my belief that the concep-
ton OF adult education will develop
in America. Education OF the adult
which teaches the facts OF current
life az home and abroad will be the
true bulwark against extreme radi-
calism and will be the basis OF an
intelligent free and tolerant
thought"
