SACRAMENTO, Calf, April c.
Payments made by former service
men given state aid under the vet
eranS farm home and purchase act
have met bona redemption and in
tcrest charges to date totaling near
~ $1,000, 900, State Treasurer Char.
les &. Johnson announced today.
A total of 1851 1888 has been set
aside from the veterans monthly
payments to cover interest charges,
the treasurer said, and $419,00O has
been applied toward the redemption
of bonds voted by the people to fl
nance the program.
Treasurer Johnson declared that
n report filed with his office by
George Nj. Steut, secretary of the
veterans welfare board, showed So
242,4S4 expended in the purchase of
homes for former soldiers and sailors,
and $S49, 1850 invested in farms.
Home property has been bought for
20l4 men, the report added and 1913
veterans have been aided in buying
farms.
In commenting on the administra-
tion of the veterans welfare legis-
lation, Treasurer Johnson said:
1.-THE farm and home purchase act
has been administered efficiently
and without cost to the taxpayers.
This work, which is assisting our
former soldiers and sailors in adjust
ing themselves to civil life, should
be continued.
"The $l0,000,000 bond issue vot-
ed by the people several years ago
has been found inadequate and Cali
fornia electors should lend their
wholehearted support to the new
$2O,OOO,000 issue which will appear
on the November ballot. The least
we can do for the men who fought
for us during the World War is to
extend them the state credit to this
extent. Every dollar voted in bonds
will be repaid by the men benefited
and they have demonstrated that
they are worthy OF the trust impos-
ed in them.
"Applications for aid are on file
with the veterans welfare board
from approximately 10000 men who
failed to secure assistance under
the original bond issue. There is Il
ready market for bonds and it is Il
sound investment which should have

The Conditions Exaggerated

Unquestionably the gravity of
the situation has been much exag-
gerated both as to the immediate
conditions and as to their signih-
canoe regarding the needs of agri-
culture for governmental aid. The
farmers who have adhered TO the
plan of having both corn and hogs
as a regular and balanced system
of operations, are not in any
trouble. The dairy industry, which
buys the feed grains and hay, is
profiting by the low prices for
them, and the great body of far
mers who practice diversified agri-
culture are in good condition.
Secretary Jardine has given no
encouragement to the idea that the
remedy for the unbalanced situa-
ton in the corn belt lies in a gov
eminent stabilizing corporation,
and the President has been criti-
cized for having in his Chicago
address offered nothing new"
The President does not specialize
in new economics, and the idea of
substituting the export of such
low-priced and bulky commodity as
corn from the middle-west to Eu-
rope probably does not appeal to
his practical mind. Corn is ex-
ported in small quantities, but the
agricultural colleges have been
teaching for more than a genera
ton that the cheap and bulky pro-
ducts, upon which freight charges
necessarily are a high proportion
of the value, should be converted
into condensed products, of higher
values. close to where they are
produced. Furthermore this policy
of condensation at home is abso-
lutely necessary to the preservation
of soil fertility.

Ajax Popularity
Spreads Overseas

That the Ajax six is already
familiar sight on the streets of most
of the important4mci cities throughout
the world is shown by figures recent
ly announced by The Ajax Motors
company.
Since it's introduction last May, the
Nash-built product has made its
debut In a total of 81 different ma
tons overseas. From the plains of
the Argentine to the wilderness
roads of South African Norway. in
China. in Syria-people are now US
ing the Ajax to meet their various
transportation requirements.
Forty six far distant cities now
have dealer establishments equipped
to sell Ajax cars and give Ajax SER
vice. Even in such an out-of-the-
way corner as Weltevreden on the
Island of Java, there is an Ajax
aalesroom doing an active business
among the traders and natives Of
that territory.
1.-The reception accorded the Ajax
overseas" says George c. Hubbs,
general sales manager Of the Ajax
Motors Company, has been equally
as gratifying as the reception in this
country where in Los Angeles alone,
over 10000 people visited the Ajax in
10 days. This eagerness to see the
Ajax Six was true in greater or les
ser degrees in all of the AZ export
cities where the Ajax is now rep
resented. 1t fully iustifies our con-
viction that not only the American
market but the export market as
we'll has a very definite place for a
quality car of the Ajax type and
price.
up to December 4th. a total Of
1000 Ajax cars were shipped to over
seas points. Production for export is
being stepped up without
exceeding the bounds of sound manu-
facture-and around the first of the
year. when our new machinery and
equipment is installed, we expect to
practically double our present out
put in an effort to fill the pressing
overseas demand"

Agriculture Subject to No
Exceptional Conditions

The agitation for some extra
ordinary action by the Government
in behalf of agriculture is based
upon the theory that conditions
are different in agriculture than in
other industries: prices more vari-
able, the business more hazardous,
and that other industries have
governmental assistance or are
able to maintain effective control
over prices by trade organizations.
This belief is erroneous.
The examples cited, such as the
Federal Reserve System for the
benefit of banks and the Cummins-
Esch act in behalf of the railroads,
are not in point, for both of them
are simply acts modifying the re-
strictive policy of the government
toward these lines of business. 1t
has been the policy of the govern
ment to forbid the issuance Of
notes by the banks except under
regulations which it imposes, and
to regulate the charges of railroads

public. If the government will take
its hands off the banking and rail-
road businesses entirely, they will
get along without asking any aid.
If, however, the government persists
in regulating them, as it doubtless
will, of course it should do so in
a practical manner, for the general
good. It should not cripple them
by regulation.
Even the protective tariff has
little analogy to a government ex-
port corporation to get rid of sur
plus crons. It is designed to slim
ulate and develop home production,
relieve the country of dependence
uDon foreign supplies, and presum-
ably with a view to supplying the
home market eventually at a cost
no greater than consumers would
sustain if they remained dependent
upon foreign supplies. The pro-
