WAR AND TAXES

Mich has been said in recent weeks
ahout disarmament in this country as
= preventative Of war. 1t reminds Us
of La Follette'S speech in the court
house here. before we got INTO the
World War; against preparedness. ana
Rryan'S assertion that the united
States could raise an army OF NIL
lion men over night if if was necessar!
for us to fight. He. too, believed tlla'
preparedness was not necessary. HIS
tory has since shown that hoth those
states were wrong.
\ strong navy will be necessary Tor
this country so long as other countries
whose interests are likely to conflict
with ours have strong navleS. II
would be suicidal for the United
STATES to be defenseless nation while
other nations retain powerful land
and water forces. Sooner or later we
would be rich picking for other nations
as China is today.
The only way to escape the tremen-
dOuS tax burdens imposed by great ar
mics and navieS. is through an inter
national agreement to restrict or &C
away entirely with all armament. II
new construction would he stopped
now hy agreement among the nations
i'm twenty years all the war ships III
use now would be practically useless
for war purposes. This would be tht
ideal arrangement when the welfare
of all peoples is considered. The effort
10 this end should he made. though
c0nsumation Of it is hardly to be eX-
pectcd. Another. though less deSlr'
able way to keep war taxes down
would be to retain the present ratio
of fighting strength among the nations
SO long as national ambitions lead tt
greater. and still greater. lighting
forces. this country will some day
again he forced to fight. and it is folly
to be unprepared for at least an AIDE
quate defense.

a KICK FROM ANOTHER CRANK"

AT the recent meeting of the county
board. a majority Of the members did
not like the idea of the county having
purchasing committee to buy the
supplies for the county at the lowest
possible figures.
If we had competent highway
commissioner who would get bids be-
fore purchasing tires, culyerts. ma
chinery. and other needed supplies,
such a committee would not be neces-
sary. Under the present loose sys-
tenn of buying through someone who
has pull, the county loses hundreds
of dollars which could be saved by
having a purchasing committee. Our
highway commissioner showed incOm-
potency when he purchased eight truck
tires and paid over 5000 more than
they would have cost had they been
purchased through the state highway
commission.
/ have been informed that. Eau
Eau Claire county hires competent
!, commissioner who keeps his own books
and does all his own work for $500 Il
year, while we pay S2400 besides fur
nishing a lady bOokkeeper at $500 and
nice tile-fOOred office.
Think this matter over, We voters
of Rusk county. and state your opin-
ion to your representative before the
next board meeting

invited TO read any farm paper Of ,ta-
tional circulation and note the. contents
thereof. and then to read a typical
smart magazine that appeals to the
strictly urban intelligence, and note
what sort of claptrap it contains.
The American farmer has more time
to read. more isolated opportunity to
think. fewer unnecessary things TO do
and he gets on the job earlier in the
morning to do EN-.
And while every other business has
nearly broken its back scrambling
through this postwar defiatiOn, the
farmer has taken the biggest liqlida
ton of any business, has continued to
buy in Il dear market and sell in a
cheap one. and has generally wealth
or public sympathy.
Another thing: Maybe you have
noticed that when the farmer boy
comes to town to get a job he gets it
whereas. the average town man who
amigrateS to the country to show EN-
how to farm at a profit frequently goes
broke; the farmer in town can play
the town game and win. but the city
man can rarely make a living in the
country.
Seeing that our bread. our meat. our
butter. our eggs. our blankets. and our
sheets. everything we eat or wear
comes from the country. and that the
cities are never more than one week
ahead of starvation. unless the. regu-
lar flow of rural foOdstuffS keep com
ing in. it heh0OveS us TO realize the
fact that these unseen workers who
keep us fed are fellow men of high
intelligence. of efficient ability.
Consider this: When did reform
or an uplift. ever start in town.
The farmers Of the nation have in
augurated every forward movement
| the nation has seen. and the farmers
of every country are always the last
to be swept away by passion. rcyolu-

SILLY IDEAS

One foolishneSS common to tOwnSmen
