There are $4,000 miles of loads

These are known as town, county and
state roads. The town roads are
maintained by the township, the
county roads are maintained by the
county, and the state roads are des-
1gnated by the tcounty and main

county appropriations. It is these
state. roads which nave been eating

will be done away with when amend

 "A budget bill was passed in the closing days of the second session of the 66th congress which invalidated by plain constitutional defects and de- faced by considerations of patronage the president was obliged to veto. The house amended the bill to meet the executive objection. We condemn the republican senate for adjourning ure, when, by devoting an hour or two more to this urgent public busi- ness a budget system could have been provided.
 Senate Rules
 We favor such alteration of the rules of procedure of the senate of the United States as will permit the prompt transaction of the nation $ legislative business.
 ...t Agricultural Interests.
 'sTo the great agricultural interests of the country the democratic party does not lind it necessary to make promises. It is already amiss in it's record of things sctually accom- plished. For nearly half a century of republican rule not a sentence was written into the federal statutes af- fording one dollar or bank credits to the farming interests of America.
 "The first term of this democratic administration the national bank act was so altered so as to make loans of years maturity on improved farm lands. Later was established a sys- tenn of farm loan banks from which the borrowings already exceed S300,- 900, 900 and under which the interest from the farmers have been so ma terially reduced. as 10 drive out of business the farm loan sharks who formerly subsisted by extortion upon the great agriculture: interests of the country.
 Thus it was a democratic congress in the administration of a democratic president which enabled the farmers of America for the first time to ob- tain credit upon reasonable terms and insured their opportunity for the fu- Iure development of the nations agri- cultural resources. Tied up in su- preme court proceedings in a suit by hostile interests the federal farm loan system originally opposed by the re- publican candidate for the presidency appealed in vain to a republican con- gress for adequate finaEcial assistance to tide over the interim between the beginning and the ending of the cur rent year, awaiting a final decision of

when convened, spent 13 months in partisan pursuits. failing to repeal single war statute which harassed business or to initiate a single con- structive measure to help business. It busted itself making prediction record of pretended thrift, having not one particle of substantial existence in fact. It ragged againsts profiteers and the high cost of living without enacting a single statute to make the former afraid or doing single act to bring the latter, within limitations.
 ''The simple truth is that the high cost of living can only be remedied by increased production, strict gov ernmental economy and a relentless pursuit of those who take advantage of postwar conditions and are de- manding and receiving outrageous profits.
 We pledge .the democratic party to a policy of strict economy in gov ernment expenditures and to the enactment and enforcement of such legislation as may be required to bring prof1teers before the bar of criminal justice.
 The Tariff.
 We reaffirm the traditional policy of the democratic party in favor or tariff for revenue only and to con- firm the policy of basing tariff revi7 sions upon the intelligent research of non n-partisan commission rather than upon the demands of selfish in terests. temporarily held in abeyance.
 Budget.
 Tn the interest of economy and good administration we favor ere ation of an effective budget system that will function in accord with the principles of the constitution. The reform should reach both the execu- tive and legislative aspects of the question. The supervision and prep aration of the budget should be vested in the secretary of the treasury as the representative of the president.
 The budget, as such would not be increased by the congress except by two-thirds vote, each house, however, being free to exercise its constitutional privilege of making appropriations through independent bills. The ap- propriation bills should be considered

|, the highest court on the validity of the contested act. We pledge prompt and consistent support of sound and effective measures tu sustain, amplify and perfect the rural credits statutes and thus to check and reduce the growth and course of farm tenancy.
 Not only did the democratic party put into effect a great farm loan sys- tenn of land<m ortgage banks but it passed the Smith-Lever agricultural extension act, carrying to every farm CT in every section of the country through the medium of trained ex- perts and by demonstration farms the practical knowledge acquired by the federal agricultural department in all things relating to agriculture, horti- culture and animal life; it established d the bureau of markets, the bureau of farm manag cement and passed the cotton futures act, the grain grades bill, the cooperative farm. adminis- tration act and the federal warehouse act.
 The democratic Sarty has vastly improved the rural mail system to such an extent as to render its activi- ties and its practical service indis- pensa ble to the farming community It was this wise encoura cement and this effective concern of the demo- cratic party for the farmers of the United States that enabled this great interest to render such essential serv- ice in feeding the armies of America and tine allied nations in the war and succoring starving populations since armistice day.
 Meanwhile the republican leaders at Washington have failed utterly to propose one single measure to make rural life more tolerable. They have signalized their 15 months of con- gressional power by urging schemes which would strip the farms of Ia Dor; by assailing the principles of the farm loan system and seeking to impair its efficiency; by covert.y attem pting to destroy the great nitrogen plant at Muscle Shoals upcn which the govern ment has expended S70.000,0oO to supply American farmers with fertil- izers at reasonable cost; by ruthlessly crippling nearly every branch of az ricultural endeavor, literally crippling the productive mediums through which the people must be fed.
 We favor such legislation as will confirm to the primary producers of the nation the right of collective bar gaining and the right of cooperative handling and marketing of the products of the workshops and the farm and such legis1ation as will fa- cilitate the cxportation of cur farm products.
