Their we will strive for Well-rOuhdeO

there shall be fir balance between
industry and agriculture or whether,
as have SO many nations In the past
We shall sacrifice our agriculture Tor
the building of cities and expect our
food to be produced not by independ-
I ent farmers but by men and women
of the present type.
Dispassionate consideration OF this
larger problem is made harder now
because our agriculture is in very bad
| shape, much worse than is fully real
ised especially here in the East. There
seems to be a tendency to regard the
complaints and appeals which are De-
ling voiced by the farmers and the peo'
Pile who speak in their behalf as SIM
ply the recurrence Of grumbltngi
which have been heard from farmers
In past periods of depression. Now
the truth IL that we are passing thrt
the most severe agricultural depression
we have ever experienced. II is mo-
simply a case OF low prices for farm
products. We have seen lower prices
In times past. The trouble now Is tina
whereas prices OF farm products
lspeaking generally. are lower than be
fcre the war. prices Of the things tn
farmer must pay Tor. including trans

Of money, remain near the war levels
