car1cG-tnp Same opportunities rnat are
provided for other businesses; espe-
cially as the enjoyment by the farmer
of such opportunities would appear to
be even more contrihutorH 10 the gen
eral good than in the case Of other
industries. The spirit of American
democracy is unalterably opposed,
alike to enacted special privilege and
to the special privilege Of unequal op-
portunity that arises automatically
from the failure to correct glazing
economic inequalities. l am opposed
to the Injection Of government into
business, but do believe that IT Is an
essential function of democratic gov
eminent to equalize opportunity so
far as It Is within Its power to do so,
whether by the repeal of archaic
statutes or the enactment Of modern
ones. If the antitrust laws keep the
farmers from endeavoring scientifically
to integrate their industry while other
Industries find way to meet modern
conditions without violating such stat
utes. then It would seem reasonable
to find way for the farmers to meet
them under the same conditions. The
law should operate equally In fact. Re
pairing the economic structure on one
side Is no Injustice to the other side,
which Is In good repair.
We have Travelled long way from
the old conception Of government as
merely defensive and policing agency /;
and regulative. corrective, or equaliz-
Ing legislation, which apparently Is OF
a special nature, Is often Of the most
general beneficial consequences. Even
the First Congress passed tariff act
that was avowedIy for the protection
Of manufacturers; but a protective
tariff always has been defended as a
means Of promoting the general good
through particular approach; and
the statute books are filed with acts
for the benefit Of shipping. commerce.
and labor.

Our Old Families

We hear a great deal about
old families. In every com
munity there are people who
take great pride in their ances.
try.
Our old families are to be re-
spected of course, and pride OF
ancestry is a real virtue, but ii
can be overdone. The fact
that one family is just about as
old an another, and necessarily
so.
All Of us have ancestors to
be proud Of, and, if the truth
were know, all of us have an
cestors to be ashamed Of. We
all had q common origin. We
can trace orr ancestry right
back tn Noah. and, if you want
to go further, on back to the o.
ririnal babboors. who lived in
a tree and spent his spare time
picking the feas off of him
self.
The point of all this is that
it is better to be a good and use
full citizen sprung from an OBJ.
scure family, than to a worth
less descendant of distinguish
ed family. Pride of ancestry
is a good thing, but pride OF
self and personal achievement

Our National Health

The New York Times re
ports the conclusion of 81 lead
ing American insurance com.
panies that the year 1921 was
the healthiest year in the his
tory of the United States and
Canada.
The figures for the first ten
months indicate a lowering OF
the death rate among policy
holders from 9.8 in 1920 to 8.24
in 1921.
Despict the absence of whis.
key, pneumonia decreased sc
percent from 1920.
More prosperous, non-drink'
ing Americans, however, were
able to afford automobiles
with the result of Is per cent
increase in deaths from auto
mobile accidents. The 81 CON
panies supplying these figures
transact about 80 per cent Of
the life insurance business Of
the country.
There was a large decrease
in deaths from tuberculosis.
Some whiskey is still being
sold, of course, but not sc
much as before probition went
into effect, and the death rate
is falling.

He must go on producing if he Is to go

directly through Lahaina has been
