LIVE STOCK GROWERS RE-
CEIVE INTELLIGENT TREAT
MENT FROM CONGRESS
CBy Guthrie Smith

Taos, Sept. S.-Farmers and stock
growers have received more intellig-
cnt treatment, and more practical help
from the present congress, in its eX-
%traordiuary session, than had been ac-
corded in any previous period of 100
years, Senator Holm o. Bursum
says.
Most important OF all is the agric-
u%ltural relief bill. which has been
signed by President Harding, and
which will be in operation in a few
days. This is the most gigantic re-
lief measure in the history of the
world. Il will make available. for dis
tribution by the War Finance Com
mission. the sum OF two and one-half
billion dollars. This measure will, in
effect. increase the present circulation
of currency by about 50 per cent.
This money will be available TO loan
to farmers, live stock growers and
producers OF wool. Loans will be made,
not for 30 or 90 days, but for a peri
cd of one year. with the privilege of
renewing for another year. There will
be no more charging Of prohibitive
interest rates. such as prevailed in
the crisis. when the Federal Reserve
made the rate higher and higher, in
proportion as the need OF the Dor
rover was grcat-a most outrageous
practice.
Local banks are not allowed, un-
der the new measure, to charge more
han two per cent. in excess of the
rate which they pay for the money.
At the prevailing interest rates, the
farmer and cattleman will be able to
borrow money at about 8 IL per cent.
Ii is likely that a little later the in
terest rate will be even lower.
Last year banks in Union county
called loans. forcing Of livestock on a
glutted market. with the result that
a great many ranchmen were reduc-
ed to desperate financial circuinstan-
ces. They could not borrow any
money, anywhere, for any purpose.
Value of collateral Offered made no
difference. There was no money. One
Colfax county cattleman was unable
borrow a dollar on a big block
OF liberty bonds. He had bought the
bonds during the war. as a patriotic
duty. borrowing the money and pay
.lg eight per cent. He was compel
led to sell the bonds at 81. Union

be available now, as a result of the
measure Senator Bursum helped to
frame and to which he lent all of his
influence.
The passing of this great relief mea-
sure by a Republican congress is the
source oNnuch humiliation to many
of the short sighted workers in the
camps OF the opposite political party.
Wonderful as the measure is, these I'M
%scrupulous or poorly informed work
crs seek TO discrcdit its benefits in
every way possible. Many stories are
being circulated. One is to the effect
that no relief measure of any kind
has been passed. Another is that which
a measure has been passed, providing
a huge sum for relief OF the country,
all OF it except some S50,C00,0W has
been turned owe to the railroads. But
the truth will prevail. When, a few
days from now, ranchmen and farm
crs are able to go to their reSpcc-
tive banks and borrow all the money
they need in legitimate business, at a
rate OF interest not exceeding 3 ~
per cent, all doubt about the relief
bill will be disposed of.
And when farmers begin to receive
two cents a pound more for their
beans, as a result of a tariff of two
cents a pound placed upon beans from
the outsidc-produced under the worst
of living conditions and with the cheap
est Of labor-the farmers will APP
prcciate more keenly the interest
which a Republican congress felt
in their welfare. Then there is the
tariff Of > cents a bushel on wheat,
which already has caused an advance
IN the price Of wheat.
For more than 80 years Bursum has
been a stock grower. farmer and bus
mess man in New MeNico. No man
in thi, state has more first-hand in
formation on the subject OF the needs
OF the people Of every section Of New
McNico. And no man has a wider
acquaintance with all kinds and classes
OF people. His record in the congress
shows hat he has great ability to
get results. II is an unwritten law
OF the Senate that a new senator must
serve a long apprenticeship, in which
he is seen. not heard. Bursum sec
urcd results. in spite OF this rule, by
working in so quiet, unobtrusive a
way as not 20 create any %jealousies.
\ ilashy man. having a tendency TO
pose and strut, would have been sat
upon promptly. As long as he re-
mains in the greatest deliberative body
on earth he will remain quiet and I'M
obtrusive, getting results for New
Mexico and America and helping TO
rebuild a badly disorganized world.

DEMOCRATIC WEEKLY JEWS.
PAPER SAYS DEMOCRATIC
STATE HEADQUARTERS is
SENDING OUT"SLANDERS AND
UNTRUE STUFF"
Tularosa Tribune refuses to print
Seligman's underground cam
paign" matter expressing itself in
the following plain language:

This paper this week received from the democratic state
headquarters seven feet of typewriter stuff the equivalent
of perhaps 500 lines of print This was accompanied by a
letter which stated that they had taken the liberty OF send
ing il to MS. Wen say they did. And some liberty it was,
too. If all the papers in the state received 4 like pile OF junk
it must have cut quite a hole in that barre Of money that
Mr.. Bursums opponent insisted upon before he would take
the plunge. AS we are very much afraid Of the libel laws
of this state we beg leave to not print the SANDERS and I'M
true stuff which the "editorial' consisted of. They also slip
in the hint that, in case we refuse to print the stuff they
send us we are guilty OF Withholding it. And we plead
guilty. There is one redeening feature OF the letter and
that is that they will be glad to receive criticism. We are
confident they will receive that in large chunks. We have
forwarded the stuff to the republican County chairman.
Maybe he can use it. We can't"

LETS FINISH THE JOB
A "COMMUNITY'S prosperity is in
direct proportion to the extent and
quality of its road system.

You cannot produce food economic
ally on a farm the outlet Of which is
a bad road. The cost of hauling pro-
ducc per ton mile, ON BAD ROADS,
is at least 25 cents per mile. The
cost OF hauling, ON GOOD ROADS,

OF 20 cents per on mile in favor Of
GOOD ROADS.
But let us figure the difference at
only 10 cents per ton mile, which is
