be chiefly an accident Of unsymmetrf-
cal economic growth instead of a orea-
ton of malevolent design and conspira-
CIV. We Americans are prone as, Pro-
fessor David Friday well says in his
admirable book, profits, Wages, and
Prices" to seek criminal intent be-
hind every difficult and undesirable eco
nomic situation" | can positively as
sert from my contact with men of
large affairs, including bankers; that,
as a whole, they are endeavoring to
fulfill as they see them the obligations
that 90 with their power. Preoccupied
with the grave problems and heavy
tasks Of their own immediate affairs,
they have not turned their thoughtful
personal attention or their construc-
tive abilities to the deficiencies of agri-
cultural business organization. Agri-
culture 1t may be said, suffers from
their preoccupation and neglect rather
than from any purposeful exploitation
by them. They ought now to begin to
respond to the farmers difficulties,
which they must realize are their own.
On the other hand, my contacts with
the farmers have filed me with respect
for them-for their sanity, their pa
tience. their balance Within the last
year. and particularly at meeting
called by the Kansas State Board of
Agriculture and at another called by
the Committee of Seventeen, l have
met many of the leaders of the new
farm movement, and | testify in all
sincerity that they are endeavoring to
deal with their problems not as pro-
moters of narrow class interest not
as exploiters of the hapless consumer,
not as merciless monopolists, but as
honest ment bent on the Improvement

The united opinion. [volume] (Bradford, Vt.) 1881-1970, 1922-01-20

To take a tolerant anS sympathetic
view of the farmers strivings for bet
ter things Is not to give a blanket
endorsement to any specific plan, and
still less to applaud the vagaries of
some of their leaders and groups.
Neither should we, on the other hand,
allow the froth Of bitter agitation
false economics, and mistaken radical
ism to conceal the facts Of the farm
ers' disadvantages, and the practicable
ity of eliminating them by well-con-
sidered measures. 1t may be that the
farmers will not show the business
sagacity and develop the wise leader
ship tn carry through sound plans; but
that possibility does not Justify the
obstruction Of their upward efforts.

want and expect to have their debts
cancelled in whole or in part" and
that, on the other hand, Congress
seems to be determined to exact a
recognition and, if possible, a full
settlement of them.
"The truth" says the same observ-
err, ''is that the foreign debt question
is a suppressed conference ISSUE"
From other sources it is reported
that Mr. Lloyd George is once more
about to propose international debt
cancellation, and that Secretary
Mellon has found it needfu1 quite at
the last moment to call halt on the
Senate debt-funding bill, because he
has word that some of the foreign
countries which would be affected
could not expect to settle their in
debtedness on the basis outlined in
the measure now before the Senate
committee.
AS The Spokesman-Review long
ago pointed out, it is futile for the
European governments that borrow
ed ,000,000,000 from us during
the war and now owe US an addition
al 1,000,000,000 in interest to think
that the United States will be so
easy to cancel that obligation with
out compensation.
The outcome of the Versailles
peace treaty was that the United
States got neither indemnity nor
territory, while England and France
acquired both money and territorial
possessions.
In the World war we gave every.
thing lavishly and received nothing.
Now we are asked, and even nagged,
to cancel the $1,000, 100000 owing to
us by European governments. They
must think that Uncle Sam has gone
daft with neutrality-suspicious.

merge and sell their products inte
| orally and In accordance with seasonal
and local demand, thus improving
their position and rendering the con
sumner reliable service of ensured
quality, certain supply, and reasonable
and relatively steady prices. They
have not found 1t necessary to resort
to any special privilege, or to claim
any exemption under the antitrust
legislation of the state or nation. With
out removing local control, they have
built up a very efficient marketing
agency. The grain, cotton, and to-
bacco farmers, and the producers of
hides and wool, because of their num-
bers and the vastness of their regions,
and for other reasons, have found
indignation a more difficult task +;
though there are now some thousands
Of farmers cooperative elevators,
warehouses, creameries, and other en-
terprises Of one sort and another, with
a turnover Of billion dollers year.
They are giving the farmers business
experience and training, and, so far
as they go, they meet the need Of
honest weighing and fair grading; but
they do not meet the requirements of
nationally adjusted marketing in any
large and fundamental way.
The next step, which will be a pat
tern for other groups, is now being
prepared by the grain-raisers through
the establishment of sales media which
shall handle grain separately or col
lectively, as the individual farmer may
elect. 1t is this step-the plan Of the
Committee of Seventeen-which has
created so much opposition and Is
thought by some to be In conflict with
the antitrust laws. Though there is
now before congress a measure de-
signed to clear up doubt on this point
the grain-producers are not relying on
any immunity from antitrust legiSla-
ton. They desire, and they are en-
titled, to coordinate their efforts just
as effectively as the large business in
terests of the country have DONE In
connection with the selling organiza-
lions the United States Grain Growers
Incorporated Is drafting a scheme of
financing instrumentalities and auxili-
airy agencies which are indispensable
to the successful utilization of modern
business methods.
1t is essential that the farmers
should proceed gradually with these
plans, and aim to avoid the error of
scrapping the existing marketing ma
which has been so laboriously
built up by long experience, before
they have tried and proved substi-
tute or supplementary mechanism
They must be careful not TO become
enmeshed in their own reforms and
ose the perspective of their place In
The national system. They must guard !
against fanatical devotion to new doc
.rines, and should seek articulation |
With the general economic system

t relates to them.
