Il am a Progressive, but / Favor Retaining the
Things That Are Good


m MAY be that government ownership and control is the solution
Il of the transportation problem, but I believe a further test of private
Ill ownership Of the railroads, with continued government supervision,
should be made.
1 favor the repeal of the Esch-Cummins law creating the railroad
labor board. 1t has not worked well. It has served as 8 source Of irrita-
ton among railroad men rather than as a means of soothing them. Its
mission is good, but the results are not good because neither side Is
committed to abide by the decisions Of the board.
/ am in favor of law enforcement, and that applies to the Eighteenth
amendment.
I am in sympathy with most Of the economic purposes OF the farm
bloc, bat l do not think blocs should exert their influence to the detri-
ment of the whole, and / doubt their wisdom and propriety.
I am in favor of an adequate and effective line of defense. We ought
to be better prepared than we were in 1917 ! am in sympathy with arms
limitation in a general way, and In favor of anything that will make
var more improbable, but I think the arms limitations treaty is less
effective than the league of nations plan for preventing conflict.
The international policies of Senator LaFolette and those who agree
with him do not meet my approval. I am a progressive and I believe in
eliminating the bad things in our government, but I am in favor OF
retaining the things that are good.
The government should stop child labor of the kind that stunts the
chIds growth. The government should prevent working conditions IN
sanitary o. destructive Of the moral or physical welfare Of the worker.
Especially among women a far greater hazard of evil results from low
wages rather than from long hours.
The preservation of peace is of far greater Importance than the
success of political parties, and if the President and his party can
promote world peace I shall be glad to support their efforts. | hope the
senate will give its consent to membership in the international Court
of Justice.

Result Would Be the Minimum Price Would
Become the Maximum Price
By GRAY SILVER, American Farm Bureau Federation.

1 am opposed to price-fxing legislation applying to farm products.
Without the incentive or opportunity to trade and with no reason for
organizing, the result would be that the minimum price would become
the maximum price, for there would be no active force to remove 1t
from its starting point.
The farmer would lose all individual initiative, all ability and incen-
tive to trade or barter, and he would become a victim of an autocratc
system of business and price fixing which would make him, IN effect a
ward of the government, whereas by the present method we are seeking to
develop a democracy that gives the widest opportunity to agriculture
to compete.
own products, were we to provide for governmental sterilization by the
method proposed in any of the bills now in congress, the farmer would
find himself between the arbitrary price fixed by the groups
and the arbitrary price fixed by the government. Since
he is approximately onethrd Of the total population, he would be IN a
position of having his customers, the other twothrds of our population
after pricing their own goods, sit in with him and, with their majority
vote, determine the price.

The nation does not contemplate training men to destroy other men,
but it does seek to sc train men that they will be able to defend themselves,
should occasion arise, against other men who may attack the nation Inc
future army must be composed of normal virIle, healthy men.
The nation, to maintain its supremacy, needs such men, The future
of the generations to come demands real men to perpetuate the nation.
We must produce and maintain men and women healthy physically men

The government aims to train men SO that physically they are IN
truth images of their Creator; mentally, that they will be able to reason
for themselves, and show a proper respect for the laws OF the nation and
morally. that they shall so live and act as to be OF credit to this nation,
which has always respected God, humanity and freedom OF all mankind.
To this end the citizens military training camps have been instituted.
