On this good old boat we call the
United States of America there are to-
day no small number of economic mu-
t%ineers, who, without any particular
thought for the rest of US, fairly make
the boat rock in their effort to grab
what looks to them like life preservers in
the form Of government aid, special pri-
vilege, more money and cheaper credit.
We should see that these facts are
given consideration for we are all in the
same boat and will surely weather the
storm or go down together.
They have not only d~isregarded pro-
perty rights; violated contracts; appro-
priated the accumulations Of labor and
savings of individual effort, but pro-
baby worst of all in its ultimate effect,
have drowned the hum of industrial ma
chimes producing disable goods for the
people by the mad roar of the printing
press turning put rubles by the %trillion.
If there ever was a horrible example
from which we should take warning
here it is-and yet, no inconsiderable
number of our people are clamoring for
fiat money and lots of it. They, too,
would defy the teachings of history and
the warning of human experience.
Upon the advent of Lenine and Tro-
tzky the printing press was speeded up.
Why bother with a gold reserve when it
was so easy to turn out paper rubles
bearing the government imprint? For a
while things seemed to go along merrily
and the goose hung high, but today it
literally takes a bushel of money to buy
a bushel of wheat if you can get any
body to accept the money.
Money, but Worthless.

April 28th the paper money in c%ircula-
ton in Russia had reached the pheno-

OREGON POTATO CROP
MENACED BY MOSAIC
Incurabie Disease Must BE Prevented
In Seed Stocks If Industry Is
to Endure.

Right seed certiication may determine
whether Oregon is to continue a potato
growing state or lose its big potato in-
dustry from the inroads Of disease3. Fo-
tato specialists from the United States
department of agriculture have recently
questioned whether any potatoes at all
will be grown in Oregon so years from
now.
Potato mosaic is one of the diseases
most feared. Once ir the stock no means
are known for Graduating it or even get
ting tubers fit for seed from it. This
makes it high time for growers and po-
tato scientists to begin a field search
for discase-frea potatoes of the right
sort for sources Of seed.
The search must begin in the field, as
the presence of mosaic and wilt can be
detected in the growing vines only. Even
there it is not always easily recognized,
and where possible the grower unless
well informed on this disease himself,
needs the help Of a specialist.
The grower is advised by NJ. B. Mckay,
potato disease specialist at the 0. A. c.
Experiment station, to go into the field
now while the vines are still green and
growing, and stake those most vigorous
and free from evidences of disease. AZ

The Marriage Problem

Perhaps the most important prob
lem before the public today Is the
marriage problem.
There are more thunderings at the
foundation of the home than ever be-
fore.
The wcrld seems determined to de-
stroy the home. 1t is using the au-
~tomobile, the motion picture h'use,
the dance hall, the pool room, the
summer resorts, the Sabbath picnic,
games, and amusements, and every
other conceivable method to scatter
the family, detraet from the sobriety
of the home and wreck the domestic
fut nchtion.
Many a girl marrics for u meal
ticket, including a theater coupon.
When the day of scarcity Of food
comes and no amusement is furnish
ed, she enters the divorce court, and
there commits a crime against society
and places a blot upon the name Of
womankind.
Many a couple agrees before mar
riage to avoid the domestic RESPONSE
bilities and live a life of freedom
from care and domestic duty. Such
an agreement is tantamount to pre-
meditated social murder.

that was being turned out is enough
because it has come down to US in an
expression which has not altogether
gone out of use, "Not worth a CONT
mental"
Don't forget the experience we went
through with the Greenback Party, sup
ported in the 70's by some intelligent
and well meaning men, as is today the
demand for government issued money
in inconvertible form. The Greenback
fight lasted for many years, and was
not finally settled until the passage of
the Gold Standard Act in 1900.
In California, a silver party has re-
Gently been organized. The old free
silver advocates wanted to put the gov
eminent imprint on fifty cents worth
of silver and call it a dollar. Theirs was
a sort of fifty-ffty proposition. In Neb-
raska, a new political party advocates
fiat money.
| have before me a page from Wal
lace's Farmer, the well known agricul-
tural periodical published at Des Moines,
Iowa; founded by the father of the pre-
sent Secretary of Agriculture. 1t has
in recent years been under the manage
ment of the Secretary and his brother.
The article is entitled: as the Green
back Movement Coming Back" This
will interest you. Under the heading:
"Change Needed in Money System" it
says:
Fiat money has been adopted as al
most an official creed of the Iowa Far
mers Union. Milo Reno, the president,
is preaching the g~reenback gospel in a
series of meetings over the state. A
similar attitude seems to be taken by
the Farmers Union Of Kansas. In the
official publication Of the Union on
March 18th, the editor says, in discuss
ing the bonus question:
" The business body is sluggish on
account of contracted credit and cur-
rency. Why not stimulate it with a lit
tie TRANSMISSION of circulating medium
turned out by the government printing
press? Initiation is far better than re-
pudiation either of debts or the intan-
gible obligations that we owe to the
patriot soldiers who offered all they had
in the interest of liberty and c%iviliza-
tion.'
Further on the article continues: "Un-
doubtedly there is a strong movement
toward fiat money but this as yet has
hardly reached more than a minority
of the farmers. Practically all Of them
want a higher price level and most are
entirely u%nconcerned as to what meth
cd is used to bring it back. If the pre-
sent financial system will not bring this
result about, the farmer is perfectly
willing to take steps to put the present
} system in the junk heap and create one
