for conditions complained about, we
go too far afeld and fail to look
about US, where the real incentives
are to be found for harassing wrongs.
Then again. we fall to theorizing
when we should be intensely practi-

An every day journalistic philoso-
pher in st. Paul. tired by reading the
vast output Of things necessary for

1t is worthy of public display upon
every cross roads and corner. Listen
to 1t:
What this country needs is not a
new birth Of freedom, but the old
fashioned 50 lower birth.
What this country needs isn't more
! liberty, but less people who take
liberties with our liberty.
What this country needs is not a
for every Job.
What this country needs isn't to
get more taxes from the people, but
for the people to get more from the
taxes.
What this country needs is not
more miles of territory. but more
miles to the gallon.
What this country needs Is more
tractors and less detractors.
/ What this country needs isn't more
young men planting spuds.
What this country needs is more
paint on the old place and less paint
| on the young face.
What this country needs isn't a
lower rate of interest on money, but
higher interest in work.
What this country needs is to fol-
