The administration plan for farm
relief, discussed by President Coolidge
with Senator McNary Of Oregon and
the subject of conferences between
Secretary Jardine and agricultural
leaders, has received its preliminary
shower of bouquets and brickbats from
the press.
Some ardent advocates of the Nc
Nary. .Haugen bill are not favorably I'M
pressed by the idea of having Govern
ment participation limited, as it could
be under the proposed program. to
lending money to co-operatives. The
st. Paul Pioneer Press tRepubllcanl
declares, "The trouble with compro-
missing on farm relief is that the farm
er is expected to do all the compromls-
ing" Similarly the Brooklyn Daily
Eagle independent Democraticl. con-
ceding that extensive farm credits
from Government funds will certainly
help the farmer" yet maintains that
"he wants something more substan-
tial." and that ''it hardly seems likely
that the McNary -Haugen forces will
accent as an election bribe what they
rejected out of hand when 1t was a
choice between halfway measure or
postponed relief"
On the other hand, the Flint Daily
Journal independently thinks the Cool
idge plan seems businesslike and sensl-
ble," and that "the President now has
the opportunity to dispose OF the agri-
cultural unrest and the Midwest oppo-
sition to his candidacy, with the farm
problem solved before the next nom1-
mating convention and long before the
general election The Cincinnati
Times-Star Republican) remarks:
Lack of prosperity in the farming dis
tricts carries a threat to the prosperity
of everybody in the United States.
There ought to be brains and energy
enough in this country to provide some
way of practical relief from what in
many States of the Union is genu-
inely distressing situation"

Significance in the fact that Senator
McNary lis going among the farm
ers as their friend is seen by the
Christian Science Monitor (independ-
ent). which feels that as 'he must, IN
agreeing to accept the mission, have
indicated his sympathy with the un-
dertaking and Willingness to pre-
sent the plan without bias against it,

what has appeared as an immovable
barrier will be overcome" The New.
York Herald Tribune Republican,
is convinced that 'tif the Government
can assist in developing a sound sys-
tenn of orderly marketing of crops
through cooperative selling agencies
and can do it without itself being
drawn into the industry, there Is no
doubt that it will do so."
The political phase of the question
overshadows others in the estimation
of some newspapers. The Birming-
ham News independent Democratic)
states that ''the President realizes
quite well that to leave the radical
leaders of the defeated measure to
sweat in their own juice, without of
fering some plan in lieu of 1t, would
at least be poor politics." The News,
however. contends that "the trouble
about the administration plan is that
It is In no sense original" that AL

Poetry and Truth.

Poetry and Truth.
In Springtime comes the dainty bud,
To greet the gentle breeze
In Springtime comes the fearsome
flood,
When all the blossoms freeze.
And so the poet when he sings
Brings delightful lay,
Much more assuring than the things
The weather prophets say.
These poets, since earth's early youth,
Have been rejected quite.
They tempt us to forget the truth.
In fantasy's delight.
