Equality with the Georgia man.
If that decision stands we look to

Today it takes 50 SO to buy what
81 would have bought in 1913-or a
ltrifling 159 percent more! The year
before the war the farmer got 70
cents. a bushel for his corn and a
wagon to haul the corn which cost
him SIT. Today he is getting 40c a
bushel for his corn and a wagon will
cost him from $145 to $3.50. That
lis what the American farmer is up
against today-and that's what is the
matter with the country. And there
is not much reason to hope things
will be better until a remedy is found
for the situation. The price of the
things the farmer uses must come
down or the price of the things he
produces must go up.
OF course they disown any respon-
sibility for the situation, but the re-
publicans will have a hard time to
convince the people that they are
blameless, and it is up to the pres
ent congress to do something to
change the situation-which means
that something must be done to en-
able the farmer to start buying again.

There is a bill now before congress
appropriating $20,000,O00 for the re-
lief of the starving and unemployed
people of Russia, which many demo-
Gratis approve and most of the repub-
licans to a man, but as Mr. Heflin
says when the government had ex-
pended nearly $100,000,0O0 on the
Muscle Shoals project in Alabama.
the congressman from the South ask
ed for $10,O00,O0O more to complete
1t on the ground that if it were not
done thousands of people would be
thrown out of employment and the
money already invested would be lost
and If it were done all the money in
vested would be saved and it would
give steady employment to a million
people as Henry Ford puts it. yet the
republicans in congress almost to a
man turned deaf ear to the propo-
sition. Why? What's the South's

An old crow sat on a cornfield
His remarks were stupid, and void OF
sense-even as you or l. *** But
there he sat, as black as your hat
and footed his harsh bazoo. That
old fool bird jes' had to be heard
even as l or you. %*" For all l know
that blamed old crow, as he squaked
in his fiendish glee, was teasin' his
folks with his harmless jokes-even

inspect, approve or reject-it's a mat
ter that's up to them.-Uncle John.

REPUBLICAN PROSPERITY

What is the cause of hard times
in America? Thirteen million farm
families are unable to buy the prod.
ucts of the factories that produce the
articles that the farmers use, so the
workers in those factories are thrown
out of employment and cannot buy
the products of other factories and
more workers are thrown out of en-
ployment and cannot buy-and so it
goes, right on down the line to pro-
ducers of raw materials. When re-
adjustment started, the farmer was
the first to get it in the neck" He
is now getting pre-war prices for
what he produces, but his dollar is
only worth 3S cents as compared with
prices of things he must buy.
And because the more than thirteen
million farming families cannot buy.
the business of the whole country is |
suffering.
These figures tell the story.
Here is what the farmer got for the |
-hings he raised in 1921 and 1913,
.hese being average prices:

Our Friends, the Enemy

Our republican friends, who persis-
tently put forth the claim as being
super-grand in the matter of finance,
have been in control of the legisla-
tive department of the government
now full three years, and what a mess
they have made of things and es-
pecially those things that concern
the great farming interests of the
country.
They have permitted to let the bot
tom drop out of everything the farm
er has to sell.
There is no longer a profitable mar
ket for his cattle, nor his hogs, nor
his sheep, nor his wool, nor his cot
ton, nor his corn, nor his potatoes,
nor his peanuts, nor his syrup.
Never before in the history of the
country have farm products been at
so low an ebb.
We remember some years ago
when the democrats had control of
the congress the republican campaign
slogan in the next election was the
empty dinner pail"
What do we see now? More than
six million laborers out of employ
ment with no need for a dinner pail
at all.
And all this is on account of i'm
proper and fallacious legislation.

CLIPPED COMMENT

Florida receives $2,231,S1O federal
aid for the uilding of good roads,
about one tenth of the cost of single
battleship, yet it is heralded as a
wonderful aid. If the big sums of
money that have been spent on bat
tleships were spent on internal i'm
provements of concrete and asphalt
we would have good roads stretching
across the continent from ocean to
ocean and from the great lakes to
the gulf.-Ocala Banner.

prices has not, as is sometimes assum-
ed" says Professor August Cassel, OF
Sweden, been merely spontaneous
result of forces beyond our control.
1t is essentially the result of policy
deliberately framed with view to
bringing down prices and giving a
higher value to the monetary unit.
This policy of defation has its root
in the popular idea that pre-war
lprice-levels are still to be regarded as
normal" and that stable economic
conditions can be attained only by
bringing prices down to the old
levels"
What has become of the supera-
bundance of money that was issued
by the different nations since 1914?
Never was there ever before known
so much money in the world. What's
become of it?
1t has not been burned up. 1t has
not been sunk to the bottom of the
seas. So where has it fed?
Through a concentrated and syste-
matte effort it has been withdrawn
from circulation. 1t has ceased to
flow through the arteries of circula-
ton, and in consequence there has
been a hardening of the arteries and
a strangulation of trade.
This universal defation is the
cause of this universal distress
