Of strong west wind. whose velocity
is estimated at perhaps IT'S miles per

that there Is not n continuous reduc-

supercharger, which is expected to be
Of considerable military and CONNER
cial value For military purposes Its
use will be to increase greatly the

PRODUCE! PRODUCE! PRODUCER,

A great English essayist has said that The who
makes two blades OF grass grow, where only one
grew before, has done more for his nation than
all the race of politicians put together This may
need modification but it has germ OF truth that
Gals for almighty emphasis. The world OF human
kind is clamorng for results. The cry OF the hour
is for action quick, definite, purposeful and pro-
ducinR, The three great elements of eloquence we
are told are First action; second, ACTION; third
ACTION. There is no eloquence like the cry Of
hunger and need and there is neither limit nor inter
mission to the cry. From every point of the circle
Of the four winds comes the cry Give! Give! Pro-
luce! Produce! Produce! 49, ~..s 49, > :
A needy world is crying to the laborer to pro-
duce. We are getting accustomed to the reply
IAN out" "Back ordered" "Will report when we
can repenisE our stocks" We ask the manufacturer
why we cannot get what we require, and the
answer is 'Strikes reduction in supplies 4of raw
material, shortage Of men, shortage OF power"
Shortage, shortage, everywhere Long on nothing
but wind and words. ~ ,>
Hear the words of the Craftsman of Canaan IT
must needs work the work Of Him that sent me
while it is vet day, for the night cometh when
man can work." AS He looked at human needs, as
the cry of the suffering world rang in His ears
was there any suggestion of a six-hour day? Not
on record We have picture of Him producing
filing for hungry stomach, healing for the minds
diseased. No toiler ever so far forgot himself in
his ministry to the needy. There is nothing so
reedful at present as the spirit and practice Of
the Canaanean Craftsman in the producing world.
The needy worlds cry must also ring on the
ears of the employer. He has equipped splendid
laboratories labor saving inventions, new methods.
He is doing what he may to produce what the,
people need and with such speed as is possible to
him. But must ask, is he toiling for the dollar
and the dividend oris he working tor the greatest
good of the greatest NUMBER His business is
not alone to produce wealth. > He must produce
manhood, and brotherhood. There must be liv-
ing wage and an adequate return. If he will study
the hearty happiness of every profit sharing con-
Germ and the enthusiasm Of all workers who are
not "hands" but hearts, not machines" but men,
he will BE- convinced that way out of the present

GENERAL LEONARD WOOD
 AND FARMERS OF AMERICA
Latter of labor

Dwight B. Heard, in a letter re- gently from Clifford Pinchot, received copies of correspondence between Mir Pinchot and General Leonard Wood which will be interesting to farmers and will show that General Wood has a keen appreciation of the needs of the farmers of this nation:
 Philadelphia. Pa, Jan. Is. 1920. Major General Leo1ard Wood.

 Washington. D. C..
 My dear General:
 Because of the rapid progress of the campaign your friends are making for you I have been questioned many times as to your attitude toward the farmer So far I have been obliged to reply that while I did not know it in detail, I was confident your position would be found to be thoroughly sat- isfactory to the men and women who live on the land.
 For my own information and that of my friends among farm leaders throughout the United States. 1 should greatly like to have such statement as you would care to make at this time concerning your attitude toward the American farmer and the prob lems which confront him. I would, of course, make no use of the letter ex- cept such as you might authorize.
 The farm people of the United States number some forty millions. They are better organized and more ready to act together than ever be- the views of candidates for The presi- dency. is decidedly greater than has been usual at this stage of the cam paign. You will be doing a public service by setting the standard which I know you will set if you decidf to
