WASHINGTON, April 9.-The au-

ent high prosperity of the United
States. 1t has started a flow of
money into many channels.
This unique diagnosis of good
times has been given to the House
Banking and Currency Committee
by William II. Foster, director of
the Pollock foundation for economic
research, a recognized economic ex-
pert. 1t was cited in connection with
his explanation of why he believed
this country would see period of
gradual deflation, in testimony on a
bill giving the Federal reserve board
power to stabilize prices.
HAD 1t not been for the develop
ment Of the new industry in the last
few years, the automobile industry,
and the vast amount of capital ia
cilities created in connection with
that industry, the prosperity Of this
period would have been impossible, +"
he said.

Editorial Comment
Please Be Poor
Chicago journal of Commerce.

(ChlcagO journal OF COmmerce)
1t will interest American wcrkingmen to know
that the gentlemen of the Third Internaticnalc,
holding their sessions at Moscow, have solemnly
disapproved the particpations of American unions
in the banking business.
1t will also interest American workngmcn to
know that the same gentlemen have decided that
it is bad policy FOR the workingn'en Of the United
States to stock. either in the companies that
employ them in other corporations.
Stock ownership makes workmen contcnted.
Labor banking makes workmen contented. Con-
tented workmen to be members of the de-
spiscd and downtroddcn proetarat and become
members Of the bourgeoisie-the SNUG middle class,
actually satisfied with the private ownership os
property!
1t is even declared by some of the communist
leaders at this world central gathering that work
ingmen not only should not participate in labor
banking but should not participate in banking Of
any SORT Any kind CT bank account may make a
man contented. 1t would well please the communist
leaders if the American workingman were to keep
his savings in an old sock. Even better if he were
not to save at all! For pennilcss workingman is
the least likely to be contented.
| The Third International not only opposes union
banking and workingmens stock ownership, but il
announces its general opposition to ANY method Of
cooperation between the various classes of society
particularly to the American method The
| communist leaders decide to make an especially
vigorous fight against the new economic gospel
which America is bringing to the world.
! This gospel in brief, is: Create wealth. and the
proper distribution of it will follow. The more
there is for society whole the more there
will be for each
| Such emphasis on production, rather than OF
distribution, alarms the communists. Variou.
speakers declared at the meeting that the American
| doctrine constitutes strong support for tn.
hated "capitalstic" system that it must be singled
out for special attack.
! Now, this American emphasis production o.
course goes handin-hand with the policy of cooper
alton between the classes, which is exempiied mos
strongly in the ownership of stock in corporation
by workingmen, who thus become capitalists Ac
cordingly it must be the communist policy to dis
courage such stock ownership.
Exactly how they are going to 90 about it re
mains to be seen. Their war en- stock OWNERSHIP
and labor banking may have some success amcnl

Of financing such building. When the bonds arc
retired, the property could be held by the city and
operated under a board such the library or even
directly under the City Commission is the Audi

Some short cut to a realization of such project
should be worked out. The enterprise doubtless is
too large to handle in drive for personal dona-

such a building possible

Seed Corn Outlook

If the North Dakota State Corn Show is criterion
such condition should not obtain in this state.
Last year excellent display Of the various kinds
of corn was gathered in Bismarck and as yet Their,
have been no alarms sounded relative to the seed
corn situation in this state.
Mr. Larson found that many samples Of Mime
sofa seed corn tested as low as so per cent and
some low 10 per cent. These tests
prompt the ST. Paul Dispatch to make the follow
ing deductions:
"rhc 1924 crop produced poor seed, may,
be their argument, yet the 1925 crop was
the biggest and best in many years. Hence
il the seed is poor this year. as the analysis
indicates why not look for 4 repeat? But
in 1924 the corn late and frQSts got it

fact is being obscured by the fine yield and

"The year 1926 may be regarded as u fat
year for corn. and that of 1926 might be
expected to be a lean enc. If in addition
to the low price Of 1925, which means less

The Indianapolis baseball club has

Blues, The Indians needed a re-.

Kawtown catcher when he was
placed on the market.
Snyder caught seventy-one games
last season. He performed we'll be-

his usual standard His batting aver.
age was $50, making fifty-five hits,
seven Of which were home runs. He
got eight doubles and two triples.
At one time last season he was to
be traded by K. c. into the Inter
national League, but the deal fell
through.
Indianapolis finished the season
with two veterans behind the plate,
Grover Hartley and Ainsmith. The
latter never was exactly right after
receiving a dislocated shoulder in
spring training.
Always known as a heavy hitter.
he failed to deliver here, and his
throwing was impaired by the in
jury to his right shoulder, which
failed to respond to treatment until
late in the season.
Hartley is a valuable man, but has
reached the age when he cannot be
expected to catch regularly. He
knows the batters and Is hard
worker He is extremely valuable
as a coach, even though he is not

Barefoot Football
in Honolulu

BIZ United Press
HONOLULU, Oct. 20.-With base
ball out of the way, Hawaii, like
parts of the United States, has
turned it's attention to the gridiron.
Outside of the usual interest in the
talent that will meet mainland grid
teams here this fall, interest centers
in the barefoot players.
Barefoot football is played by
youths Of various parts of the city
who throw their prowess against
those of other city sections. Lack
of funds to carry the game on in
full equipment has led to them play
ing in uniforms composed of light
weight jerseys and overalls. No
shoes are worn, but the kicking is
we'll done.
So interested have Honolulu resi-
dents and visitors to the islands be-
come in these barefoot exhibitions,
that plans are being made to form
