subject. It will be followed probably
by demands that Congress enact new
laws or amend existing ones to SIM
pity the farmers banking procedure
Favor Long Term Loans
The former, instead of being forced
to pay IL per cent interest to usu-
rious banker in states where Such eA,
ceSsive rates are eNacted under local
1ong-term loans, at low rates, through
should give permanent form
One of the suggestions now ad-
vanced is that Congress shou1d au-
thorfze the establish ment of a farm
credits department in each OF the
Federal Land Banks throughout the
country. This would provide for an
intermediate type of farm credlt run
ming from six months to three years
at reasonable rates of interest Inese
lied to discount for any national Dank
State banks, trust companies or saw
ings institutions obligations whose
proceeds are to be used TOT agricuI-
ural purposes or live stock ralSing.
Board have admitted that the bank
ing machinery of the country was not
equipped to care for farmers credll
appeals in the readjustment crisis
last year. In the heavy price dechne
pea1s for financial aid TO prevent for
ced sales of their property. Many OF
them were caught under the crash OF
the price tumble.
1t is now freely agreed among au-
thoritieS who have tackle the prop
lem for the Government that new
credit machinery for the farmer
must be established, and at the ear
lest possible time, to make II poSslDle
for the farmers of the country Z
with adequate credit help for their

Eugenics And Socialism Failed
In Biblical Times, Says Pastor

Denver, May 2O-Socialism and
eugenics were failures in Biblical
times, as they are today, Rev.
Paul RAIDER, president of the
Christian and Missionary Allf-
ance, told an audience here in
crisp, picturesque language.
Using the parable of Esau and
Jacob in his accommodation of
eugenicS, Rev. RAIDER said:
1.-The Lord took Isaac, a fine
looking, clean. highIy-intelligent
and physicaIly-pe young
man, and Joined him with
Rebecca, a beautiful, healthy,
starry-eyed and curIy-haired
young woman EuSenicaIy
speaking, Isaac and Rebecca were
as splendid a pair, physically,
mentally, morally and spiritual
Iy, as it was possible to find
tAnd the result OF this eugenic
union was two cflildren-Esau
and Jacob-as totally unlike
their parents and as totally un-
like each other as anything that
could be imagined.
Jacob was so unreliable and
slippery that God couldn't hold
him. He violated every contract
he ever made. He was as crooked
as a dogs hind leg!
.sESau was the cheapest skate
that ever lived. He traded his
birthright for a mess of hash.
That is what the theory of
eugenics did for Isaac and Re-
becca- God tried it out and it
failed ienOminiOusIJ-D

Rev. RAIDER regarded the flight
of the Isra elites from Egypt as .
Through trial of the theory OF
Socialism,
81 am in favor of anything that
will give everybody a square deal
everybody a piece of the pie
and chance to take the
wrinkles off 11is stomach he
said. ''But Socialism was tried
out on the Israelites and it was
a failure. When they left Egypt
and got across the Red Sea they
were all given exactly the same
thing-food, clothing, shoes; an
equal distribution of light, shade
and guidance in the pillar of
cloud by day and the pillar of
fire by night. There was an even
and impartial division among the
children of Israel, but it did not
work. 1t developed more stiff
necked kickers and complainerS
than anything else ever tried be-
fore Or since"

CHICAGO IL EMPLOYEES
AND OFFICIALS AGREE
Strike on Surface Lines, HolD-
eUer, Is Expected.

Special Dispatch to THE New York HERALD
CHICAGO. July 27.-Oficials in the eie-
vated roads conference to-day with
leaders of the unions agreed that the
present eight hour day should be con-
tinued and that any wage reductions
which may be agreed to later should not
be effective before September /. 1t was
expected this attitude by the IL" might
result in similar shift on the part OF
the surface lines.
Refusal of the board of operation of
the Chicago surface lines to arbitrate
wage differences with theiI, employees on
terms proposed by the latter's represen-
tatives to-day apparently closed the door
on the last hope oA peaceful settle
ment. Only the fixing of the hour for
a complete tieup of the surface and ele-
waited lines now remains, 1t is believed.
The membership of Division 241 at its
Hall. South Ashland avenue and Van
Buren street, will determine when the
systems shall cease to operate. William
p. Mahon is hopeful that a way to a
peaceable settlement may still be found.
but the local leaders and Henry A. Blair.
president of the surface lines, do not
share this feeling. Members of the State
Industrial Commission to-day rendered
their services as conciliators, but 1t is
doubtful IL the offer will be accepted by
either side. William Quinlan and other
officials of Division 241 believe the pros
pect of avoiding a strike has disap,
peared
