that its telephone service Is owned by
local people, who are close to them.

therefore willing to continue to rem

the recent rise which the Southern
Ben Telephone Company has put
acsoss and the cancellation OF free
service to- neigh boring towns in the
county. our people are assured that
they viii not have, to pay more for
their serYice in these tight times nor
will their service be curtailed, but,
on the contrary. the management is
constantly adding to and improving
the service and has given assurance Of
keeping in force the same rates. It
shows the value, wherever possible, of
the ownership of public service prop

WEST AND SOUTH TO JOIN

Are we soon to see in this country
new political alignment in national
politics which will put new political
forces in the saddle and perhaps
create a new party? The report comes
rom Washington that a coalition has
been formed in the senate Of the
United States between senators rem
resenting the great agricultural sec
tons of the West and South which
will give them the Balance of power
In that body. Many years ago it was
the dream Of Southern Democrats that
coalition of the Western and South
ern farmers would be formed which
would sweep the country and place
the agricultural sections Of the United
States dominant politically. But the
sections have remained welded to
their idols-the West solid for pro-
lection and the South for Democracy
The combination of the two sections,
might easily cause an entirely new
alignment In politics. But whether
the West breaks away from Republi-
canism or the South turns it's back
on Democracy 1T would seem that
the representatives in congress from
the two sections might easily find it to
our advantage to forget partizanship
where the interests Of the farmers,
who constitute SO large part of their
constituents. are at stake. The de-
ye1opment Of the movement in con-
gress will be watched with interest

WILL TARIFF HELP?

Just what, the s Southern, farmer
"a tariff on cotton we cannot see. The
cotton market is stagnant today not
because Of overproduction{ but by
reason of underconsumption, owing
to the inability of foreign countries
to buy the raw material. The half
clothed people of many lands sorely
need cotton. but have nothing with
which to pay for it. The imposition
OF a high tariff, such as the party
now in power proposes to impose, wifi
hinder the flow of merchandise from
other countries to the United States
and by that much tend further to de-
press the market for cotton. This,
it seems to us, is the logic OF the situa-
ton. If it have an opposite effect
we will be glad indeed, but it seems
reasonable to hope that it will.
To give the devil his due. however,
the new administration has appeared
disposed to be quite sympathetic to
the plight of our. Southern farmers.
In putting the machinery of the War
Finance Corporation behind the ex-
port Of cotton, they have evidenced a
disposition to aid in the restoration
Of a better market for cotton, and
there is hope that if the South does
not make too large a crop this year
their help will prove Of great aid.
