Statistics recently made
public show that there are six
ty-seven men in the United
States with an annual income
of more than a million dollars.
Ii is too much. They can
not possibly use it, and they
are not likely to give away any
considerable amount of il.
That the government does not
take in taxation simply adds
more millions to their pile,
thereby reducing the amount
in circulation among the less
fortunate.
On general principles man
has right to all of the money
he can honestly earn, but there
should be a limit beyond which
no man can go.
Ii the government would set
a reasonable sum as the limit
to the size of fortunes and their
incomes, and take possession
of everything beyond that linn
it. there would be an end to
the accumulation of the wealth
of the country in the hands of
a few to the detriment of the
many.

Speed? Very poor. "A

Getting Back To Truth.

Admiral Sims, commander

navy during the war. says the

American navy too much cred
II for the part it played in the
world conflict.
The admiral speaks TO the
point, but he states a fact that
is well known upon this con-
tinent. He might have includ-
ed the army with the navy.
II is to be regretted that Pc
riodically some people in this
country make a lot of noise 10
the effect that America won
the war;" and our British and
French friends are too courte-
Gus and generous to call the
bluff.
America entered the war at
a time when victory was tot
tering in the balance. II was
only a question of short time
when one side or the other
would be compelled to capitu-
late. for both were at the point
of physical and financial ex-
haustion.
The arrival of two million
American troops, fresh and en-
thusiastic. was the act that tip
ped the scales in favor of the
allies and caused the Teutons
to sue for peace.
The Americans fought very
bravely and splendidly for the
short time they We're in action,
and there was a dash and spir-
il to their fighting which won
the praise of the world.
But they were no drawer. no

Great Chance for Farmers at Auburn
 Week of July 25

Tuscaloosa, July 16.-(Special)- The farmers of Tuscaloosa county will be given an opportunity to rs. ceive personal instructions in all ag- ricultural problems by attending the farmers short course at Auburn dur ing the week of July 25.
 This is great week at Auburn, as it brings into contact the theory and practices of farming and many interesting and instructive confer ences take place, as the hard headed practical farmer presents to the scholar of agriculture some un- usually practical problems that oft~n conflict with the theory
 The faculty at Auburn this year is exceptionally strong. 'One of tn / most popular, capable and practical teachers, Dan Gray, will be among the lecturers. and any farmer can afford to spend a week. for the privilege of hearing Dan Gra3 on animal husbandry.
 The county agents will be there; also the home demonstration agents and the club boys. R. B. Lett. man. aser of the farm bureau of the chamber of commerce Is most anxiou. that as large number of Tuscaloosa farmers attend as pos sible.
 Knowledge Is power and the easiest way to get knowledge is through association such as the farmers short course affords.

control the price of his supplies or or his product, would thereby be some what improved. The organizations of the middleman between the far mer and the consumer are, so the farmers at least believe. making un- duly large profits, and consequently the votes of members of the farm bu- reau federation in favor of it's pro- gramme of relief have been practi- cally unanimous.
 Confirm Opinion
 The allegations contained in Sena- tor Kenyon's resolution will tend to confirm the opinions of the farmers, for it is charged specifically that two large wholesale organizations not in the least connected with agricul- ture are opposing the co-opefative mark plan. This indicates d marked opposition on the part Of the business interests toward cooperative ventures, similar to the opposition of business to municipal or government ownership-for those tendencies limit the scope of bushes. and though an industry may not be affected by leg islation immediately proposed, there is the possibility that future iegisla- lure may be more inclusive.
 Labor leaders interested in cooper atiVe enterprises were not in the least surprised by the Kenyon affair, for the literature of labor orga nizations is filled with accounts of the conflict between competitive and cooperative forms of organization.
 Of serious Moment
 The opposition of this strong busi- ness bloc to cooperative marketing s is. a matter of serious moment to the farmers who, in view of2the closing of European markets to their product by reason of the effective stimula tion of agriculture abroad, have come to look tipon co operative meth ods as their best salvation. There is,-to be sure, some Improvement in tho live stock export situation, ac- cording to current reports, but this may not be an unmixed benefit. Many farmers are in dire financial straits, and as a result cows and young cattle that never ought to be placed on the market are being forced there.
 Credits and the stimulation of for eign trade are urgently needed for the promotion of American agricul- ture interests. This is the firm con- tention Of the bloc of agriculture senators, prominent among whom are Kenyon and Capper. As a means to that end, a bill has been identified in congress for the formation Of ag- riculture corporations somewhat along the lines of foreign trade corporations formed under the Edge act; but that the opposition of the business bloc to cooperative mar keting is expected to be directed also against this bill and though there will be strong support for it in Sem ate and House. 1t is not in the least likely that the support will be suffi- cent to insure it's passage.
 The evident interest of the depart ment of agriculture in cooperative marketing plans has encouraged the farming interests considerably and the intention of Secretary Wallace to strengthen the economic position of farming is also warmly welcomed. The disclosure if such they are, of the business opposition to o-opera tive marketing are expected to stimu- late opinion among the farmers not

Washington, July 16.-(Special)- )- Cooperative marketing has been brought very much into the fore ground, so far as farmers and labor organizations in the United States are concerned. by the charges of Sen
 ator William s. Kenyon that a strong business group has raised 8 fund of f250,000 to fight proposed legislation which would make such cooperative marketing possible.
 The American Farm Bureau federa- tion has sponsored cooperative mar keting as perhaps the most feasible means out of the present demoralized condition of agriculture, on the as- sumption that the insecure economic position of the farmer, who cannot

CHINA PRESERVES
 LARGE FORESTS
Plants 130 Million Shoots and Now Planting Four Mil-
 lion Trees
By Associated Press

Pekin, July 1s-Forestation in China made noteworthy progress in 1920 through the activities chiefly of the provincial governments. More than 1So. 100000 shdots were planted and cultivated by 21 affors- station institutions in central and north China at cost of quarter of million dollars in Chinese currency.
 The government railways, antict- pating their need of timber have also taken steps to plant trees along their rights of way. One alone, the kansu- Haichow railway, Is in process of planting 100000 trees, according to the Bureau of Economic Informa- ton.
 Afforestation has been extended to nearly all provinces. with especially promising stations in Shantung and kiangsu. In the latter province, at Ranking, there are approximately 5000 acres devoted to the cultivation of 25.000.000 trees In this station students are given three years course in foreststion and later ars sent to various districts to sepecial- ize.
 Three Gardens
 There are three gardens in shan tung which occupy some 700 acres. The largest and most prosperous sta tion Is in the north of Kiangsu near Yenkshow where S,e00 to 4,00O trees are grown every year. Special af- forestation schools have been estab . lished in Anhwei. Chakiang, Hupeh. Szechaun and Shansi. It is estimated that 20 per cent Of the 1,s00 hsiens or counties In China are now engaged in this work which the Chimes hope will in due course trans form many of their barren tracts in- to flouri sh.ng forests.
 The establishment of national Ar bor Day when all classes of the pop ulation are encouraged to plant trees, is pointed to by the Bureau as an In- dication of China's awakening to the value of forestation.
