The Short End to the
Farmers

THE late congress adjourned after two years Of making
gestures which looked favorable to the farming interests
But what did it do? 1t defeated all legislation the object
on the sock-rasers allowed the cold storage bill to die
The Mussel Shoals bill for cheaper ntrates lost The
bill for giving legal standing to the farmers cooperative
organizations not passed
But the members of the last congress themselves
100000 for "free Seeds After all the blovation about
legislation for the farmersl
Not that the farmers entitled to special legislation
But the whole country needs farms and prosperous farm
Aside from the federal farm loan act passed before
entered the war; the farmers have got nothing And
there is great deal that should have been done.
Ten Townleys-a thousand Townleys-couldn't do as
much to boost nonparsan leagues and suchke with the
farmers is done by the peoples representatives in
gess when they mix azness and muddhng as they have
for two years.
Nor win the taring and feahering Of Towneyites help
the situation. The nonpartisan theories cannot be
strained by Illegal acts such being committed in
Kansas but by honest and beneficial legislation for the
farmers who entitled to it, and by honest and bene-
fetal legislation for the people a whole.
