ways depended upon Europe to han
die the surplus, and the buying power
of that people is growing gradually
less month by month. In our own
country, the unemployment of mil
lions in anything like productive en-
terprise, and the double manning of
many essential industries, such as
mining, has forced the cost of pro-
duction of non-agricultural goods en-
tirely out of the farmers reach.
| While the farmer is entirely depen-
dent for prices upon the law of sup
ply and demand and the ability Of his
buyers to pay, organized labor has
claimed that it would surrender none
of the advantages that it has gained
during the war, and it is leaving no
stone unturned to maintain the same
lprice levels as heretofore, the argu-
ment being that the cost of living has
not decreased. This argument ig-
nores the fact that very large ele-
tment in the cost Of production is the
double manning of the industries, as
in mining and the very low efficiency
in production, as in building; both Of
which overload production with un-
necessary costs, even to such an ex-
tent that the laborer cannot himself
buy his own product.
THE BUYERS STRIKE.
Conditions have become such that
ii now requires an acre of oats or q
half acre of corn to pay for one days
labor of the mechanic. This being
the case, the farmer cannot build
buildings, or buy machinery or any
other manufactured product not fore.
ed upon him by absolute necessity
Shoes are costing almost as much as
in the war months, even though q
dead animal is no longer worth skin
ming. When this discrepancy be.
came acute, the farmer was forced
out of retail trade. What happened
was called buyers strike. 1t wa'

The disbursement Of fifteen million

Of returning prosperity. The Union

the work may go around.
The country has ignored this situa-
tion long enough, The time has come
when the situation must be squarely
faced and squarely met. Both produc'
ton and transportation are now prac'
tically under the control Of organized
labor, which is being badly led ant
by the same class of people which
has attempted, though unsuccessfully
to gain control Of farmers.
AS the matter stands today, farm
ers are going ahead producing fol
the worlds open markets; and until
labor and capital are willing to dc
the same, this gulf between the coun
try and the town will continue anc
will grow deeper and wider.

can be classed.
SEVENTH: There are thou
sands of business, professional,
political, and official men who ne
glect church because they are con-
scious of the fact that they are
grossly sinful, selfish, conceited,
and derelict in the performance
lof their duties. They dread to
face the gospel mirror wherein
they can behold their own faces
over which is written the guilt.
They know that if they face the
gospel as expounded from Gods
infallible Word they will have to
surrender their selfish, mean, con-
ceited business and professional
attitude toward the church and the
gospel.
The conceited professional man
tries to build for himself a code
and produces a state of self-cen-
tered contentment, which he does
not want disturbed by the courag-
eous presentation OF the full gos-
pei Of Jesus Christ. Men are ne
glecting to attend church because
they are afraid to face the judg.
ment gospel. Men are staying at
home or they are going on the
fields Of pleasure or they are at
tending to business because Of
their innate and overt and continu-
ed meanness. They are trying to
avoid the doctrine Of responsible.
ity, accountability, and judgment.
They are foolish. Every sensible
man ought to prepare to meet his
God. Every desirable, worthy
citizen ought to be found in his
pew every Sunday morning wor-
shipping God and paying his hon
est obligations to the church of
Jesus Christ.

The Non-Church Coer
BY
Rev. MA. MATTHEWS

Why do men neglect church at
tendance? If you mean all men
do not attend church you are in
error. 1t is true that far too many
stay away from divine worship
The following reasons can be as
signed why certain classes neglect
this important duty:
FIRST: A scared Sabbath con-
science sends men to the golf links
on the Holy Sabbath.
SECOND: The gasoline mania
causes thousands to take the fam
lily, the dog, and the lunch basket
into the Automobile early Sab
bath morning when they begin to
break the Ten Commandments,
the speed laws, the rules Of dom.
este tranquility and Sabbath OBJ
servance.
THIRD: Screenitis sends thou.
sands into the motion picture
houses, where they make a pagan
attack upon Gods Holy Day.
FOURTH: Laziness keeps thou
sands at home wrapped in the bed
clothes Of Incidence and filth-too
indolent, sloven and filthy to dress
and attend divine worship.
FIFTH: False conception Of
worship, or because the sermon is
poor, or the minister worse than
dead, they drift into the habit Of
neglecting church attendance.
SIXTH: A large number Of
those ho stay away do so because
they are plain pagans; their edu-
cation is defective; their breeding
is below the standard. They are
just plain heather. No well-bred,
well-trained, modern, up-to-date
man stays away from church SER
vices. The bum, gambler, fraud,
embezzler, outcast, loafer, and
the scum Of the earth stay away
from church. Behold the crowd
with which the non-church goer

THE FINANCIAL MARKET

NEW YORK, March 27.-Only a few
selected issues were immune from
pressure in today's moderately active
and lower stock market. So-called
favorites reacted one to three points
and some less popular and more spec
ulative shares suffered greater losses.
Signs of a weakened technical po-
sltion and greater discrimination Oh
the part of investors, together with a
falling off OF public interest provoked
an extension of bearish aEgressions,
especially in steels, equipment, oils.
motors, sugars and kindred special
ties.
With the progress of the session,
rails of the investment type as well
as junior transportations were singled
out for sporadic attacks. Partial re-
coveries in the last hour were due to
bidding up Of chain stores and mer-
chandising issues, together with short
covering in sugars and low priced oils.
Incidents over the week END IA

centers reported a cheerful tone over
the trend of business. Among the
many February railroad earnings sub
mitted, those of Atchison, Louisville
