Mr.. Reed.
On February II, 1919, William C. Red
field, then secretary of commerce in the
Wilson administration, wrote to the food adj
ministration in Washington, asking them to
cease maintaining prices on food products.
Mr.. Hoover was in Europe at this time
fighting with the Allied governments to be
able to feed Europe, and the acting food ad-
ministrator in Washington replied to Mr..
Redfield as follows
My Dear Mr.. Secretary: We (the food
administrator, in the position of
having certain clearly moral obligations
which we have to carry out to the pro-
ducers of food and upon which the produc-
ton was greatly stimulated, and these
agreements made for the purpose of
winning the The producers have re-
sponded in good faith to the program
of production which they assumed and the
food administration cannot abandon the
moral obligations to which it properly and
with due authority committed the gov
eminent, unless the government itself by
clear and direct executive order, assum-
ing the responsibility, requires the food adj
ministration to withdraw from the regula-
ton and Sterilization to which have re-
ferred
On July 10, 1917, II years ago, Mr..
him long letter on the wheat situation, in
the course of which he said:
In order to do justice to the producers
who have shown great patriotism in a
special effort to increase production in
1917, and to further stimulate the efforts
of 1918, it is absolutely vital that we
shall protect the farmer from any slump
in price this year.
The Tribune maintains that, in the face
of this testimony produced 10 years ago, to
assert that Mr.. Hoover was anything but
loyal friend to the American farmer is the
height of fantastical falsehood. In politi-
cal campaigns certain latitude of untruths
is permitted the candidates and political
speakers, but this hardly applies to men in
the position that Mr.. Reed has just vacated.
These men are supposed to be neither poll
ticians nor political speakers, and their only
interest is supposed to Be in truth. If anyone
after reading the correspondence here re-
corded chooses to believe Mr.. Reeds state
ments, there is nothing more to be said 1t
is VIGOROUSLY impossible to convince the
Eskimo that the world is round.

present CONDITIONS'' IN
PROHIBITION

YUMA Tale, prominent Wisconsin author,
= recently wrote for the Womans Jour-
nal discussion of some of the ever
present argument against the eighteenth
amendment; arguments which seem never
ending. In part Miss Gale wrote:
Something concerning the present stu
alton is conceded, but not everything. It is
true that conditions are intolerable. It is
true that "those are drinking now who
never drank before 1t is even true that
aside from those who honestly oppose the
Eighteenth amendment, there are those to
whom to disregard it has become smart 1t
is true that certain individual liberties are
curtailed. All these things one comedies
and then proceeds to the real issues.
"For one must not be too greatly dis
turbed by present conditions That boyle
would have Quoted the French Revolution,
would have sent France back to it's mon
archy That boyle would have changed the
soldiers of Valley Forge to monarchists, the
Pilgrims of jamestown to emigrants, the
sailors under Christopher Columbus to NUT
ineers. And when in England the farmers
rose and stoned that new invention, the
threshing machine, the present situation
would have dictated the return to fails.
every great change for the better has
been attended by some disorganization. We
learn not to confuse the disorganization
with the new order trying so painfully to
emerge.

we are going. / class them with the Ken

Daniel Webster, when he said, "With my

shall be spent to bring the Pacific ocean
one mile nearer to Boston. The whole idea
is unfeasible and undesirable The unde-

"There are those who apparently can
not visualize society struggling toward
its own ultimate order by eliminations.
"Yet the art of social living, like all the
other arts, advances by that which it dis
cards and restraints as well as by that which
adds.
There remain those who do not believe
in any restraints, either in art or in social
living. To them Nietsche's word is uttered:
BE myself, but be worthy to be myself
"Yet like best, in this matter, the SIM
pie human word of one of my Wisconsin
neighbors. He says:

my farm paid for, my children are being
educated, our insurance is kept up, my wife
has got few things she wants. No, don't
want liquor back. But if get chance to
vote, know I'll vote for it.
Really, when it comes to the red-blood-
ed power to say no, think I'd as lief see
politicians exercising it as to protect them,
paternalistically, by removing temptation
to dissemble, to compromise, to practice n.y.
pocrisy.

We have no figures available, except
one, and this applies to practically all stuff
shipped by rail. At Winona, there is big
canning factory which uses thousands of
acres of produce each year, pays $1.20 per
unit to ship its products west, while the
Gamer in New York state can ship his by
water for 60 cents. Shipping is from the
west coast east. The railroads have pleaded
with the Interstate Commerce Commission
to reduce western rates so that instead Of
taking thousands of cars west empty, to
haul goods east that they might by a re-
duced rate have a haul each way. Can they
bulge the Commission. Not SO that anyone
has noticed. In the past few years several
manufacturing concerns have been compelled
in order to meet competition in freight rates,
to leave the twin cities and move east. Do
we want these conditions? Do we want in
dustry and agriculture to continue to be dis
eliminated against? We have to have a
fair shake in freight rates and in order to
do this we must have closer water shipping
point. In order to get this we must get the
st. Lawrence Waterway, to get this we must
vote for men who are in favor of it.
