Senator Moses concluded 1T would not have anyone think for a moment that I am seeking to ridicule the experts, who have so largely contributed to this measure. But sir, when view the result of their handiwork as presented to us in this bill I cannot but feel that we have before us the tattered rags of tax measure three years old, long since out of style and faded, but which has been patched and embroidered in a vain attempt to bring it up to the mode of 1922"
 s When the tariff was under discussion in the Senate, Senator Gooding called attention to the fact that different so-called 'experts' y stood ready to offer any advice or opinion on any side of the problem free trade or pro lection, and that all were employed by the government to give the most scientific and expert testimony on the subject.
 Is there too much so-caled 9expert" and 'tscientific" opinion in our public and busi ness affairs? Is there lack of common sense and sound practical knowledge gleaned from experiences It would seem that the presence of so much sexpert'' and Scientific" opinion on business and economic subjects had made it almost impossible for people especially Mem bers of Congress to think for themselves.
 Is there not danger of supplanting practi- cal knowledge in business circles and Con gress with lot of bureaucratic "experts" and "scientific'' opinion, making business and Congress impotent to think for itself' Is there not danger of measuring and testing the most ordinary problems of life with the yard stick or the scales of the so-called tex pert" and scientific dreamer9" Has the. role of the expert and the scientist in business and legislation become fetish or shibboleth? Will business and Congress be lost in the fog of expert and scientific propaganda?
 Science and the expert have their places; but is not there danger that they will usurp all authority, all accepted opinion founded on experience and common sense? Laws and leg islation and ordinary business affairs were guided by fixed rules and principles long be fore the day of the modern expert or scientist dawned
 Let the expert and scientist confine their activity to their chosen fields and permit the business man and the Member of Congress to abide by his own judgment and opinion with out cloudy coaching from others. Men who thing for themselves are better able to think straight and right

BETTER CREDITS TO THE FARMERS

One of the interesting and important prob lems to be taken up in the special or regular session of Congress will be the matter of providing better credits to the farmers The so-called sfarm bloc'' has given this sub ject serious attention ever since the agricnl- tural collapse of 1921.
 When the War Finance Corporation ere ated in March, 1919, which was authorized to make advances to American exporters and American banking institutions, to assist in if nancing exports of domestic products, ceased activities in May 1920, it had advanced $46,347.654 for the export of agricultural i'm plements condensed milk, cotton, electrical equipments, grain, flour and food, and loconlo- tives. Of this sum, $12,229,000 was for food
 In January, 1921, Congress adopted reso- ,ntfon over President Wilson's veto, directing tho Secretary of the Treasury to revive the activities of the War Finance Corporation with a view of assisting in the financing of the exportaton of agricultural and other products. Active steps were taken to relieve the agricultural situation, even to the ex- tent of buying the crops and holding them in storage until there was market for their |exportation.
 Advances of credits approved by the War Finance Corporation between January 4, 1921, and November 15, 1921, amounted to $119,- I082, ,7S3- $68 ,964 TOY for the export of cotton, tobacco, wheat. condensed milk, canned fruit, meats and machinery; and $50,1 18,076 for the purchase of wheat, corn, live stock and general agricultural products.
 Between January, 1921, and October 15, 1922, the total credit advances approved were $436, ,233,411, divided as follows-exports $9, 260e; cooperative associations, $13O899,- 634; banks and other financial institutions, $221 ,00S ,048; live stock associations, $74526,- Ill. The corporation holds notes and chattel mortgages as security.
 Doubtless this matter will cause much de- bate in both houses since some of the bills offered approach fiat paper money. They hark back to the days of Greenbackism. Sound leaders in both houses of Congress should be on their guard No credit scheme will held the farm which menaces the financial stability Iof the country.

Question why the District?

Why il the burden of the proposed
issue of 100000 saddled on por-
tion instead of the entire county?
The foregoing is the first and most
pertinent question which every voter
in proposed District No. asks. 1t
is fair question, and will receive
a fair answer.
We are all agreed that the burden
of this great Improvement should be
borne equally, and it is only because
this is impractical under the consti-
tuition and statutes that the issue Of
100000 against the Special Road
District is submitted.
There are two laws under which
Road Bonds can be voted
Under Chapter 1, Title IS, any
amount of Road Bonds can be voted
and issued on which a constitutional
maximum tax rate of 15 cents will
take care of the interest and sinking
fund: this means that on 40-year
bonds at 5 u e the sum Of S1S,750
can be issued for each one million

clared there was nothing in the cof-
fins by which the bodies could be

cross on the outside OF the coffin
and the black caps were not re-
moved before the bodies were ship
