aAGRlcUlTURE's ECONOMIC
Z. POSITION

interest in the welfare Of agricul-
ture isn't confined to farmers. 1t
concerns all of us whether we think
we are interested or pass on the other
side of the street. Which is but say
ing what all are supposed to know.
Even the industrialists, while MATURE
ally not DESTROYS of increasing the
living costs of their employees, appre-
ciate the advantages to be had from
prosperity in the ranks of the food
producers.
This interest on the part of the in
dustrialists in our agriculture induced
the National Industrial Conference
Board to detail its research staff to
investigation Of the farm conditions.
While more OF confidence among far
mers was found than has previously
existed since 1920, while there was
marked increase of activity in the
farm implement Industry during the
latter part of the summer and indi-
cation of the farmers increased pllr-
chasing power the investigation
shows that agriculture is still in a
less favorable, economic position than
1t was just before, during and just
after the war;" Also: while from
1900 to 1918, the prosperity of the
farmer. as measured by the purchas-
ing power OF farm products, in gem
&ral was on the upgrade, the sharp
reaction from the war wrought deep
going changes in the economic rela-;
lions Of the agricultural industry.
/! up to 1920. prices for farm pro-
6ucts had risen faster than prices of
0Sher commodities, than the retail
cost OF living, taxes, interest and
farm wages. but they fell more rapidly
and lower thereafter. The farmers

creased purchasing power of farm
products. Manufactured commodi-
ties. which constitute So per cent. OF

No Color Line in Sport
(Roston HerAldl

Any negro who is fit to have a
place on the football squad OF q great
university is fit to eat with his fell
low players in the dining room OF n
big city club. II the dining room au-
thorities exclude an athlete from
such an eating room on account Of
his color 1t would be fitting for the
other members of the squad volun-
tarily to exclude themselves also
from that room.
We are moved to offer these re-
marks by the contrast between a re-
cent occurrence at the clubhouse of
the Boston Athletic Association and
an incident of a year ago at the
Hotel Taft in New Haven. In the
former case a negro player connected
with one of our universities retired
from the dining room and his fellow
footballers stayed. In the latter case
the white members of the baseball
squad OF another of our universities
stood by. their colored pitcher and
won their case: the negro took his
usual seat at the training table.
There Is no color line in sport,
There should be none at training
tables In whatever dining room they
may be placed. II any reform IS
needed, however, the players may
and should bring 1t about.
