Dear Editor:

Dear Editor:
l believe there's something wrong
with License Fees for our Ford
cars.
Because we farmers on the side
roads can use our cars only seven
months a year. AS we can't get
out on the main road, because
there's too much snow on the side
roads. But we got to pay the same
License Fees as they who use the
car the whole year round. In sum
mer we only go to the city once a
week and in the seeding and haul
ing time only every two weeks, so
we use the road very little. Now
this winter, it's worse than it ever
was before. Our road commits
sioner takes the snow off from the
main road with the tractor and
snow pillow, but we farmers in the
northern part Of Wisconsin, have
to haul wood with the sleigh,
otherwise we couldn't get our tax
out as we don't get nothing paid
for our product.
Now when the road commissioner
takes all the snow off from the
main road and in the side road is
too much snow yet that we can't
use the wagon to take our wood to
the city, to make money enough to
pay the taxes. That looks to me
that all our state and county off
GERS only work for them fellows
that run the cars all year. Now
think our officers ought to do a
little for the farmers ON the side
roads just the same, because we
got to pay our license fees and our
tax just the same as them fellows
on the main road. But we use the
road only a little all year round.
Don't you think there's something
wrong?
In the summer time our road pa
trolman pulls around every day in
the week with the road machine
and sometimes the road is in a
good condition, so that it wasn't
necessary to waste the time on
them, so we farmers on the side
road think. Why don't the state
and county road commissioner
make the patrolman go in the side
roads anyway three days a week so
we could get out too, because we
got to pay higher taxes than the
fellows on the main road. What do
you think about it? Now | like to
know if our county road commits

Then, here comes the other side
of the 'SnOwplOw" situations:

Then, here comes the other side
of the "snOwplOw" situation:
| noticed r. H. B. letter in our
mail box and would like to state
my view of the situation. R. H. B.
must remember lots of people have
no horses now day to travel with,
and every one must pay a big
license to drive their cars. In this
day things are changing for the
better | think.
Trucks don't cost much if any
more than teams, harness and
sleighs and no more to keep and if
we figure how many more trips the
farmer can make in a day with the
truck, isn't it the best after all,
with which to do his hauling with"
Some might say you have to keep
team anyhow for farm work but
the advantage there would be to
keep smaller horses and save feed.
The writer Of this has seen both
kinds used for farm purposes and
the little horse is just as good or
better for farm work.
Cars are much more convenient
to ride in and save time. The trip
to town in a wagon or sleigh is too
long and hard a trip for the
farmers wife, any time. Doctors
can't keep horses and cars too and
they can't travel through snow
blocked roads. This alone cost
some one that must happen to have
a doctor, lots more in winter if the
roads were kept open.
| would suggest though as l see
it to not put quite so much work
on the roads in the summer and
use more Of this tax money on win
ter roads.

fascist "REMEDY"
For Control of Capital and
Labor is Based on Force

New York.-Premier Mussolini and
the Italian government have negotiat-
ed an agreement between the organ
lied fascist workers and the confed-
Grafton of industry, representing Ital-
ian employers, according to Associat-
ed Press cables.
The agreement, it is stated, will
permit workers to join any union they
desire, but if they would secure rep
resentation they must affiliate with a
fascist union. Shop committees, elect
ed by secret vote of the workers,
will be replaced by appointees of fas-
cist union executives.
Reading between the line of this
story from Rome, it is clear that the
government will take charge of the
unions, and that ground is broken for
compulsory arbitration. That this is
the final goal is indicated by this
statement in the cables:
"The fascist hold that the state has
an indisputable right of tutelage over
both capital and labor, to see that both
get square deal"
The Italian governments lates
move indicates the trend of thought
in autocratic industrial circles
throughout the world.
The American Federation Of Labor
has continuously urged agreements
and understandings with organized
employers, but without government
interference. AS the fascist unions
are pledged to Mussolini's theory Of
government, these organizations will
aid that autocrat in claiming workers
to industry.
No union that permits self-expres-
sion or development will be permitted
to function by Mussolini, whose indus
trial remedy" rests on force rather
than mutuality and good will.

BAKERY COMBINE
Causes Split in Federal
Is Trade Board

Washington.-Anno OF the
$4OO 900 900 baking merger has caus-
ed another upheaval in the federal
trade commission which has been re-
peatedly charged with being pack
ed" by reactionary presidential ap-
pointees.
Huston Thompson and John F. Nu-
gent, minority members of the COM
mission, score their colleagues, Com
missioners Van Fleet, Humphrey and
Hunt, for withholding the issuance
of complaint against the Continental
Baking Company, a unit in the new
merger.
The minority ignores rule of Sc
crecy that was recently adopted by
the commission.
The merger involves 157 plants and
includes the Continental, the General
Baking Company and the Ward Bak-
| ing Corporation. The combination
will control 10 per cent of the ma
tion's total bread business, it is stat
ed
Stock in the General Baking Com
pany sold for 81 share in 1916.
Stock dividends have increased this
stock, six for one, and the price
paid for present stock is equivalent to
lS1,35O for each share of original
stock.
Differences in the federal trade
commission over the merger are al
most certain to be carried to con-
gress, when it convenes in December.
The commission has ignored several
orders of the senate to investigate
corporations and industries.
