ONE OF THE ISSUES.

Mark Sullivan, noted newspaper cor.
respondent, is OF the opinion that the
federal reserve bank system Is going to
he one Of the main issues in the next
political campaign. 1t is generally con-
coded, we believe, that on the whole
the federal reserve banks have aided
materially during the past seven or
eight years in tiding the country over
dangerous waters, but it is believed by
voters generally that the policy Of de-
flation adopted by the federal reserve
board two years ago and pursued ever
since was too drastic. Inflated values
should have been squeezed out more
slowly, permitting heavy borrowers to
fortify themselves and save the situa-
ton. This is not the fault of the sys-
TEN, but the fault of those administer
ing it. President Harding will have
to accept much Of the responsibility.
because he has permitted the board TO
continue in the course begun before
he became president.
Mr.. Sullivan says congressman who
were out among their constituents a
couple weeks ago returned TO Washing
ton fully convinced that the people are
bitterly opposed to the drastic methods
of deflatiOn, as in their judgment 1t
has imposed many unnecessary hard
ships upon the debtor classes.
The Freeman-Journal believes the
board did pursue its deflatiOn policy
too far. After having encouraged lib
eral borrowing the board reversed its
policy and demanded liquidation so
fast and furious that many were en-
quilted in disaster by the process. The
board is to blame for that and Mr..
Sullivan or any other man cannot
make the farmers of the west believe
anything else. If there is any chance
for them to hit at the next election the
men who are responsible it is sure that
a Jolt will be delivered that will jar
the whole plan.
1t is to he regretted that the entire
federal reserve bank system has been
brought under a cloud by this unwise
course of it's administrators.

According to Il dispatch sent out
from Nevada. Iowa. the coal dealers
there are offering to exchange a ton
of coal for 81 ton of corn presumably
corn on the ear. If coal in Nevada is
worth so per ton such an exchange
would mean 81 cents per MlSliri Tor
corn. The coal men are figuring that
corn will go up in price and they Will
get good returns for their coal. Far
ers. however. the dispatch says. are
slow in making the exchange. some of
them preferring to burn corn instead
of hauling it to town and hauling the
coal home. If it is Iowa coal that the
dealers propose t" exchange, winch

1T IS SHOCKING.

to have the statement strongly support
ed. that 9.OOOOOO bales of cotton. rails
ed on American plantations, in given
year. actually will he worth more to
the producers than 13.OOO,0OO bales
would have been. Equally shocking is
the statement that 7OO.OOO.OOO bushels
of wheat, raised by American farmers,
would bring more money than billion
bushels. Yet these are not exaggerated
Statements. In Il world where there
arc tens of millions who need food and
clothing. which they cannot get, such a
condition is sure to indict the social
system which makes it possible. -
President Harding's Message.
Yes. it is shocking to be told these
things, especially since they are true.
The president might have also said that
$500. 100000 bushels of corn would he
worth more to the producer than 3,0OO-
100000 bushels. That's the reason
some farmers are burning corn. They
want to reduce the surplus and at the
same time reduce the price Of coal and
transportation.

values. hut that would not solve their
most serious problem They can econ.
omizc on the use Of such articles. What
is hurting more Than anything else are
taxes and interest and the unremun-
crativc price of what they have to sell,
chiefly the latter. They can reduce
on what they consume. but they can
not reduce interest rates on what they
owe. except Ivy liIufdating, and that is
impossible with tile most Of them. In
face of the unremunerative values of
farm products the loaning companies.

and commission and the farmer who
