Can't Close Down

Speaking of the trying financial
times for the Iowa farmer Mr.. An
drew said THE very large major
ity of Iowa farmers are solvent and
have large equities in their farms
even at the present depressed prices.
while not operating their business
at profit at the present time, and
in some cases unable to pay interest
on indebtedness, besides being de-
pressed by exorbitant taxes, theirs is
business which can not shut down.
Theirs is a work of necessity with
cut question, and as such, is first en-
titled to profit, for they feed the
hungry world"
The corn market situation was
dealt with by Mr.. Andrews in part as
follows: "At the present time, if a
farmer in western Iowa ships three
cars of corn to Chicago, it takes
about one car to pay the freight.
He cannot do business under this
kind of handicap. He must have
lower freight rates for his products"
Depression Only Temporary
The situation in American agricul-
ture today is probably worse than
that which existed during any prev
ious year of the present generation
but it will be a mistake if we let
this experience go without learning
lessons of the future, Clifford Thorne
counsel for the American Farm Blu
reau Federation told those attending
the short course.
To-day we are passing thru the
after the war construction period
which follows every important strug-
GLE" said Mr.. Thorne. "This is only
temporary situation. 1t is only a
question of a few months or a few
years until conditions will be sub
stantially restored as they were prior
to the war. It is during times of re-
adjustment when we apply the acid
test to methods and policies of the
past that great progress is generally
brought about.
"The production, transportation
and sale of farm products and your
purchase of the necessaries Of life
constitute the grand divisions of the
questions confronting YOU"
In speaking of the transportation
question he said "We should restore
the full powers of the state and rail
road commissions as they existed
prior TO the world war. The rail
roads are trying to concentrate al
regulation in the hands of the cen
trail government. In my judgment
too much GENERALIZATION is just as
dangerous as too much decentraliza.

l.. 4. Andrew at Short
Course al Ames.

Ames, Iowa-FaimerS of Iowa
and elsewhere today are living in a
period when they must come to a
full realization of their power and
take the place which those of the
majority can take by right of num-
bers and power, declared l.. A. An
drew, president of the Iowa farm
credits corporation, speaking before
the farmers week short course at
Ames last week.
1.-THE farmer of Iowa and in the
central west is a greet force behind
all our prosperity" said Mr.. Andrew.
zone of his main troubles is that he
has been content to remain under
and not take his rightful place as a
great leading force. He has been the
rock on which other prosperity has
been built.
beginning this year, the farmers
power must be recognized by him;
he must refuse to be a stepping
stone any longer, and not only ask
for his rights but demand them with
a force that can not be denied. He
has the power to get what he wants,
not only in a political way but in
business way, and if he uses the
brain power which his creator gave
him, he can acquire political and in
dustrial power and supremacy. We
have come to time in our economic
history when the great majority at
the bottom, which has provided the
for the prosperity of other
groups, must come to the full reali-
cation of their power and take their
place which the majority can take
by right of number and power. We
know that these are serious words,
but we have witnessed disregard for
the rights Of the farmer in the mid
die west"

With the absence OF calendars, the
people naturally do not know their
