LOSS OF KENYON WON'T HALT .
. ONWARD MARCH OF FARM BLOC
United States Senator
Arthur Capper says
farmer will soon be made
efficient salespan with
the legal right to market
his products collectively.
BY Arthur Capper

United States Senator from Kansas
The loss of Senator Kenyon in
his appointment to the Federal
bench will in no way stop the prog
ress of the Congressional program
sponsored by the Agricultural Bloc
That program is going right on
and through,-impelled by some-
thing so high and big and just that
beside it the personality of leaders
and members alike Of the Bloc pale
into insignihcance. We all
mere instruments of service TO that
vast portion of our population that
tills the soil Our names, like the
colors of our ties. count for nothing.
Our principles count for everything.
The question of cooperative mar
keting, long kept little Orphan
Annie standing outside on the door
step of Congress. now occupies a
position of honor in the mighty
Senate chamber With the Presi-
dent OF the United States formally
and officially committed to it. and
with hitherto iron-barred Senate
doors giving way before it, it is
just matter of a short time before
it will be written into the law OF the
land. The VolsteadC Capper Bill will
cut the irons from the farmers
heels and permit him to go to mar
ket alongside his neighbor and in
comparative safety from the ban
dts who would way-lay him on the
road. The American farmer can
never be an efficient salesman of his
own products without the clear legal
night to market them collectively.
Other measures to which the So
called Farm Bloc has given its
action include the Capper- Tincher
anti-grain gambling bill. bills regu-
latng cold storage and providing
for adequate control OF the packing
industry, the Capper-French truth
in fabrics bill, the hill that places
representative of agriculture on the
Federal Reserve board and bills

METUCHEN
SEWER FIGHT
New Attempt Will Be Made to
Have Sewer System For
Borough

METUCHEN. Nov. 21-Support-
ed by the Metuchen Chamber If
Commerce and other industrial or
CARNATIONS here. the new Republic
can Councilmen Phineas Jones and
Luther e. Riddle at the first meet
ing of the borough council will push
the proposed plan of Installation of
a sewerage system which has long
kept the borough's progress behind
times.
The residents have advocated a
disposal plant for years. The real
estate dealers. home seekers and
taxpayers found the object of lack of
interest in Metuchen real estate, in
recent years was due to the alb
n of the sanitary outlet of sew
erage in the borough. p.
1t is estimated that the cost Of
the plant and installation Of the inn
provement will reach the sum of
100000. 1t is regarded here that
with the building of the sewer the
borough will enjoy its greatest
building boom. 1t is believed by
leading real estate dealers that
prospective home builders lost their
interest in the acquisition of prop
erty here when the matter OF sew
erage was brought to light to them.
With all the borough bodies in
favor of the immediate construc-
ton of the sewer pool Metuchen
will be within one year equipped
with a long needed improvement.
