ALABAMA S0LONS. CONCUR IN STAND.

WASHINGTON BUREAU l
 THE AGi1vHE2ALD WashfRvsnu n q NOv GC ]


 The Alabama delegation heartily concurs in the determination ot democratic leaders today to avoid all entangling alliances with the La Toilette bloc of radicals, which is preparing to give regular republi- cans a sensational battle on organl- zation.
 Leaders conferred today, and aft . erWards Representative Ennis Garrett of Tennessee declared that it would be recommended 10 the democratic caucus Saturday that democrats re- Muse to consider oVertures from the radicals and watch from the side line the republican interparty strug- gle,
 The radicals" exercise the bal ance of power between regular re- publicans and democrats. They have demanded adequate representation on all committees. The indications are that the regulars will refuse because of their knowledge that with ade qrate representation the radicals joining with democrats, would de- feat all embryonic legislation in committees.
 Anxious For Democrats To Join.
 Because of their belief that the regulars will reject their demands, the radicals are anxious that the democrats join them in organizing and dividing the spells. But the democrats, if the advice of leaders is accepted, will refuse.
 Alabama stands in support of the suggestion to the man, it appears The democrats will decline the inV1- tation of the radicals because the republicans are entitled to organize and to bear the responsibility for any condition which might eventuate. The session will be furious with schism, it is indicated.
 It is probable that the regulars would not greatly regret it were democrats. by joining radicals, to or ganize Congress and make them selves responsible for coming legis- lation.
 Democratic leaders, it is under stood, are aware also of the fact that were they to join the radicals on or ganization, they could not form a permanent coalition. The radicals on vital matters are republicans, ana it is known that after organization they would reunite with regulars and leave the democrats with the bag to hold and in a helpless and hope less minority

Twelve months ago most of the
six million farmers of the United
States were starting in on the long
hard climb out OF the valley of eco
nomic depression. They have not yet
attained the heights which are bathed
in the grateful sunshine of prosperity.
Some, indeed, have fallen by the way.
Others are still in the valley. Never
the less, as we stop a bit and look
backward we can see that very con-
siderable ground has been gained by
the great majority, and we can enter
the New Year with renewed hope and
that courage which comes from the
realization that We are really making
progress.
A year ago, when speaking of the
prospects for farming in 1922, Secre-
tary OF Agriculture Wallace said that
while there was no reason to expect
boom times for the farmers in the
near future, there was promise of bet
ter times, both for the farmer and for
those whose business is largely depend
ent upon him. The year has brought
fufillment of that promise. Speaking
generally, the times are better, much
better. than year ago, both for ag-
riculture and for industry.
Crops have been good, on the whole
Prices of the major crops are mostly
considerably higher. While there has
been corresponding advance in the
prices of things farmers must have,
the total sum which farmers will re-
ceve for the crops of this year is
greater by billion and half dollars
or more, than that which they received
from the crops of Last year. This
will certainly mean better time or
the farm and will be able to ease VI
little on the grinding economy they
were forced to practice the preceding
year.
The labor cost of producing the
: crops of 1922 was still further re-
: duced. There were some substantial
: reductions in freight rates. Mucl
helpful legislation has been enacted
and more will be this winter. Interes
rates are lower and the credit strain
has been eased. This has made j
possible for many farmers who wer,
heavily involved to refund their obi
cations and get themselves in condi
t.on to win through.
There are still some dark spots
In some sections weather condition,
were unfavorable and crops were short
and farmers in these sections are hav
ing a very hard time of it. Freigh
rates are still very high, especially fol
those who must pay for long haul t
market.
Taxes are high, but this is largel,
due to the increase in local taxes
over which farmers themselves mus
exercise control.
There has been gratifying growth il
farmers cooperative marketing asso
cations and more OF them are being
organized on sound business basis.
Aside from the help which has beer
given by the legislation and by admin
istration activities, strong economic
forces are at work to restore "a moro
normal relation between agriculture
and other industries.
The peril in the agricultural de-
preston is more keenly realized by
other groups than ever before, and
on every hand sincere desire is be-
ing evidenced 10 do what can be done
safely to help the farmer better his
condition
Everything considered, we lave
good reasons to expect still better
