No more rediscounts to the farmer,
his crops and lands amt worth a
damn.
There have been many theories
advanced by some of the great cap
tains of finance and industry per-
tanning to the matter of farm credits
and general farm conditions, but it
seems none of them thus far have
been able to work out plausible
solution of the chief problem which
confronts the soil tillers of today.
As we view the situation from every
phase Of its Inheritance, we cannot
directly point to many serious losses
incurred by the farmers through any
stringent policies adopted by our
local banks and merchants Except in
a very few instances when the per-
sonal greed of some officials so
dominated their business judgment,
as to prompt them TO take action
which naturally brought about I'M
necessary sacrifices). In fact we feel
that their lenient dispositions has
worked more to the detriment than
to the real benefit of the farmer, as it
seems in all cases leniency has a
tendency to breed extravaganza.
Our Agricultural Department sug-
guests long term credits for the
orderly marketing of our crops as a
means of relief. Such a plan might
Democratic messenger. [volume] (Snow Hill, Md.) 1869-1973, 1922-10-28

prove of some benefit TO the western
grain growers and stock raisers, but
suggests very little merit of help to
eastern and southern truckers and
fruit growers, for the simple fact that
no system of credit can function in
a manner that will hold on the trees
or vines for orderly marketing
crop of ripe oranges, peaches, straw
berries, apples or any other highly
perishable product. Such commodities
must be moved with great prompt
ness, therefore, we fail to see where
credit in any form other than for
production and harvest would serve
to any degree a material benefit.
As we study the predicament of
the present day farmer we feel that
his sole trouble lies not with his
ability to get credit, but with his
system of distribution which is abso-
lutely incorrect. If farming is to be
made profitable, land values NAM
tanned, and our great financial and
industrial institutions kept intact,
the whole system of distributing agri-
cultural products must undergo a
radical change. If food producers are
to receive a fair remuneration for
their labor and investment, and at
the same time be able to place their
products in the hands of the con-
sumers at fair and just cost, they
must become organized under one
head. They must have system of

INDEPENDENCE

We hear people now and then talk of taking y certain
course Of action to save their self respect. Perhaps they
have forgotten that besides the respect they owe them
selves there is a Difference which is due to others.
IN decent respect to the opinions of mankind is given
at the outset of the Declaration of independence as a
reason for publishing it. Here were men prepared to
sacrifice all they had for the sake of emancipation from
tyranny. Vet they began by bowling the knee to the force

Laughing to scorn the wisdom of the ages, denying that
there is any sense in convention and tradition, then indie

worth establishing. 1t would be malefjcent, pcrnicious.

men defy not merely those who employ them but the laws
tina, undcrlic a stable social order; artists decide to be de
flar'ly original and make a bonfire of IDOLS and fetichcs;
and al these may think they are doing a heroic and a
glorious thing. But perhaps they are only making asses
nf themselves. For want of a mirror, they cannot see
the long ears; for want of an audience, they do not know
that their utterance is a bray.
Independence? A precious boon. A possession so dear
that a man ought to be prepared to lay down his life for
IT. But it must be independence of wrong for the sake
Of right; independence in defiance of an evil and in de-

sake of standing alone is not worth agony of effort nor
