cultural relief legislation passed by
Congress will wait on this report and

the bitter discomfort that exists in

right direction, but to be effective
farm legislation must strike at the
root of the evil-the marketing ques-

"What'S in a Name?"
By MILDRED MARSHALL
Facts about your name; It's history; mean"
ing; whence it was derived; significance;
your lucky day and lucky jewel.
IGNORE.

MADE famous in this country by
lNI Poe, Lenore is in reality the Span
ish transformation of N of the most
ancient of feminine names-Helen.
It's original root was -'Helios," the
Greek sun-god who drove his heaven
ly chariot around the heavenly vault
day by day, the name signifying light
and brightness.
Every language, practically, has
brought its distinguishing mark to
the original name, and Lenore is one
of the most beautiful and musical
Of the derivatives. In Italy, Leonora
is one of the forms, Eleanor in Eng
land, Eileen in Ireland, and so on.
The original Spanish d~erivat1ve
was Lemore, in which the "n' grad
ually displaced the I'M"
The jewel assigned to bearers Of
this name is the beautiful yellow
jacinth-a stone formerly carried by
travellers to insure them against &C
cident and disease. A fantasy asso-
ciated with this gem Is that it warns
its wearer Of approaching danger by
growing pale In color and it also is
supposed to guarantee protection
from lightning. The lucky day of
Lenore is Sunday and 6 is her lucky
number. To dream of her natal stone,
the yellow jacinth, is interpreted to
mean success in any undertaking she
may be interested in at the time.

COMMISSION
NEAR FARMERLESS
JOINT BODY FROM SENATE AND
HOUSE HAS WIDE SCOPE
IN DUTIES
walter w. Liggett)

Washington, D. c., July Tn my
letter of three weeks g I predicted
that Senator Ladd probably would be
named as a member of the joint Con-
gressional commission on agricultural
inquiry which vas authorized by the
Lenroot commission. This was the
general opinion in Congressional cir
cles at the time. Not only has Sena-
tor Laid been recognized as one of
the nations foremost agricultural
scientists for more than thirty years,
but he directly represents both the
N~onpartisan League and the Farm
Bureau Federation, the largest farm
er organizations in the United States.
1t seemed unthinkable that five mem
bers could be chosen on a commission
for agricultural inquiry without in
GLIDING Senator Ladd.
But this is precisely what Vice
President Coolidge failed to do-act-
ing no doubt pom the advice of
Lodge, Penrose, Poindexter, McCum-
Der and other reactionary Republican
leaders. He named Capper of Kan
sas, McNary of Oregon and Lenroot
of Wisconsin. Capper is a good
choice. He is fairly progressive; the
editor of a farm paper, and undoubt-
edly knows farm problems. Lenroot
and McNary are lawyers and both re-
dictionary. Oscar Underwood, Demo
cratic floor leader of the Senate, had
the privilege of naming two members
and he chose Robinson of Arkansas
and Harrison of Mississippi, both
lawyers and both r~eactionaries.
The House Committee named by
Speaker Gillette consists of Ander-
son of Minnesota, lawyer; Mills of
New York, lawyer; Funk of Illinois,
who has a college degree, belongs to
all the largest Chicago clubs, and has
been a chronic office seeker since
1906, but claims to be a stockraiser,
Republicans; and Teneyeck of New
York, civil engineer; and Summers of
Texas, lawyer, Democrats.
Slaps Farm Bureau
There is not a single producing
farmer on the committee, although
Funk claims to be a "steamheated"
agriculturist. No less noticeable than
the failure to name Senator Ladd is
the sighting of Representative Sim
clair of North Dakota. Sinclair is a
real farmer and represents the most
purely agricultural constituency in
the United States. He also can speak
for the Nonpartisan League. But he
was not named, while Sidney Ander-
son of Minnesota, a bitter opponent
of the Nonpartisan League was made
chairman of the house commissioners.
The failure to select either Ladd or
Sinclair on the Lenroot commission

THE origin of monograms is prob
i ably Egyptian; we are certain
that the Greeks and Romans used
these devices. The merchants of the
Middle Ages used cabalistic intertwin-
ings of letters as their distinctive
marks, and the great Charlemagne
used a cipher as his signature to con-
ceal his ignorance of writing. The old
time painters and printers also had
their private marks made of their ini-
tials. 1t was not until the Nineteenth
century, however, that monograms be-
came popular.

of agricultural inquiry unquestion-
ably was an Intentional slap at the
N~onpartisan League. 1t also can be
construed as a slap at the Farm Bur-
eau, as Senator Laid is on the mar
keting committee of this organiza-
ton. The League, of course, always
has been down on the black books
of the professional politicians; but it
was not so long ago that the Farm
Bureau was much lauded in Washing
ton. That was when President How
ard was endorsing the Esch-Cummins
act and other reactionary legislation.
But of late the rank and file of the
Farm Bureau has taken control and
its policies have become more pro-
gressive. 1t also has come out for
a nationwide wheat pool marketing
plan, and of course this is looked up
on in Washington as the very essence
of "~Bolshevism." So the Farm Bur-
eau, too, is neglected when the ag-
ricultural commission is named.
Commission Has Wide Scope
The commission is supposed to in
vestigate the following subjects:
/. The cause of the present con-
dition of agriculture.
2. The aus of the difference be-
tween the prices of agricultural pro-
ducts paid to the producer and the
ultimate cost to the consumer.
3. The comparative condition of
industries other than agriculture.
d.. The relation of prices of COM
modities other than agricultural pro
ducts to such products.
5. The banking and financial re-
sources and credits of the county, es-
pecially as affecting agricultural
credits.
