pressed by disinterested folks concerning

Congress did great deal of talking
about helping the farmer get high prices,
but the finance corporation is hardly

is destined to die slow death. President
Wilson has followed literally the man
date of congress that America keep out of
Europe, by Withdrawing American Am
bassador Wallace from the council of am
bassadors, and the whole attitude of the
present administration is one of scrupu-

new administration. beginning March 4th.

OF course, the people of the United

is so easily amended nowadays, remains
an obstacle toward heXibility in govern
