Just as the steel trust spent thou

ing the war that they were the good

now the Fertilizer Trust is spending
much money in trying to discourage
the Ford project at Muscle Shoals,
Thus the giants of business and in
dustry who have grown to abnormal
proportions at the expense of the
people, try to prevent the consumer
from obtaining the benefits of com
petiten. Mr. Ford who has proven
himself a man of extraordinary bust
ness ability is satisfied with vol
ume of business at living prices--as
he has proven to the American peo-
ple-by automobile business and is
naturally thorn in the side of those
who have established business on an
extortion basis. Should Mr.. Ford
succeed in furnishing the American
farmer fertilizer at a saving of mil
lions each year, the whole people
will be benefitted-and not a few
heads of selfish interests business

LETS HAVE TINE NAKED TRUIH

Walker d. Hines, former Director
General OF Railroads under govern
ment management. is now dragged
shrioking to the public pillory BY the
Association of Railway Executives
and told that his report regarding
the condition in which the govern
ment turned over the roads to their
owners is untrue. Always suave, of
course, the railway heads do not
fatty allude to Mr.. Hines as a falsi-
fer, but delicately describe his state
ment as "a fiction representing an
extraordinary distortion of facts. -
This is followed by a mass of sta
tistics to show that the government
handed over the railroad wreckage
in such condition that only the in
come from higher freight rates will
save the day and put the service
once more in workable order.
In conformity with the recognized
rules governing campaigns OF
Propaganda these statements are sent
broadcast to the newspapers for
publication and general consump-
ton. Were the publishers of news
papers to feed to the public all the
propaganda pap that reaches them
there would soon develop a case of
national Indigestion that might
serious internal disturbance. In
this case, however, it may be we'll
= to consider the statement of the
roads because the people want the
facts. 1t will be interesting to learn
what Mr.. Hines has to say in reply
but the voice we want most to heal
in connection with the railroad stu
alton is the voice of the farmer. Per
haps we may get this concretely be
fore the people through the avenue
of the agricultural bloc. If freigh
rates are responsible for much o
the high cost of foodstuffs to thu
consuming public and the cause o
low prices for foodstuffs whel
bought from the farmer, if the
make the farmer pay more for wha
he has to buy and get less for wha
he has to less then the appeal Of tn
roads would seem ripe for the as
heap. Some other way must b
found to rehabilitate the roads. PEI
haps turning the spigot for a tim
might have some effect. The econ,
mists of the Senate should diagnos
the case in language the people ca
understand and then perform wha
ever operation may be recognized
wise without delay. The true RICH
of the railroads should not be /
fringed, but the benefit of the publ
must be the first consideration, O
hand it looks as if the interest of Il
people and the interest of the farm
are one and indivisible.

One of the handicaps, in building
and mine development is the higr
cost of timbers and common lumber.
The markets show greater della
ton in lumber prices for 1921 than
any Of the building materials. North
western fir is being sold at the mills
which is less than pre-war prices. If
the Union Pacific System can figure
out way to get lumber from the
Northwest over their lines at lower
rate, the demand for mine timbers
and lumber will be greatly increased
in Nevada and the Southwest.
