SMITH ON AGRICULTURE

When he turns to agriculture, Governor
Smith betrays the lack of knowledge of farm
economics that results from his lack of con-
tact with the problem. He is eloquent about
farm depression and Republican failure to re-
ieve it, but vague about how he and his party
would or could do better.
He repeats the oft-made but quite erroneous
statement that though the McNary- Haugen Bills
were vetoed, adequate substitute offered.
The Republican nominee for Vice President, Sen
ator Curtis, offered promising substitute, and
so did Congressman Fort of New Jersey. These
had the tacit approval of the President. But the
McNary- Haugen group would hear of nothing
but the equalization fee as the keystone of any
legislation-a device which Governor Smith him.
self has declared unacceptable"
What then does Governor Smith offer? This
large and mouth-filling phrase: Cooperative,
co-ordinated marketing and warehousing of sur
plus farm products; and a repetition of the
Democratic plank promising .'an earnest endeav-
or" to solve the problem by distributing 'the cost
of dealing with crop SURPRISES over the market
ed unit of the crop whose producers are benefited
by such assistance"
He adds, with the easy assurance of one who
knows not whereof he speaks: "Only the me-
chanics remain to be devised" Just as simple as
that! And for this little task he will rely on
another commission of experts, to be called to-
gether after he is elected
When this sonorous and meaningless farm
program is compared with the terse and master
ly summation of Nh. Hoover, one may see the diff
ference between 4 public man fowdering in q
sea of incomprehension and an economic engi-
neer who knows how.-Ainneapols Journal

THE LIBRARY

Give me the room whose every nook
Is dedicated to book:
Two windows will suffice for air
And grant the light admission there.
One looking to the south, and one
To speed the red, departing sun.
The eastern wall from frieze to plinth
Shall be the Poets labyrinth,
Where one may find the lords of rhyme
From Homer's down to Dobson's time;
And at the northern side space
Shall show an open chimney-place.
Set around with ancient tiles that tell
Some legend old, and weave spell
About the fire dog-guarded seat,
Where, musing, one may taste the heat.
Above, the mantel should not lack
For curios and bric-a-brac.-
Not much but just enough to light
The room up when the fire is bright.
The volumes on this wall should be
All prose and all philosophy.
From Plato down to those who are
The dim reflections of that star;
And these tones all should serve to show
How much we write-how little we know;
For since the problem first was set
No one has ever solved it yet.
Upon the shelves along the west
The scientific books shall rest:
Beside them History; above
Religion,-hope, and faith and love:
Lastly, the southern wall should hold
The story-tellers, new and old;
Haroun al Raschid, who was truth
And happiness to all my youth,
Shall have the honored place of all
he
And with him there shall stand throng
OF those who help mankind along
Than all the learning of the wise.

Such be the library: and take
This motto of Latin make
To grace the door through which pass;
HE habitat Felicitas!

MUSSOLINI AND WOMEN

THERE are any number of reasons why we
are glad we don't have to live in Italy in
stead of the United States. The chief of
these reasons right comes of our having read
a magazine article by Mussolini on "Are Women
Fit for Politics."
The dictator proves, or at least states, to his
satisfaction that they not He says
furthermore that "The United States, Great
Britain, Germany, all the world may grant equal
suffrage to its women but long he controls
the destines of Italy he will see to it that Ital-
ian women keep out of the affairs of men and
devote themselves entirely to the home. Then
for good measure II Duce adds, here and there
through the article
"Women are amusing, sentimental
and born romantic. 1t is different with
men,"
"A woman is like a mirror to
man; she reflects whatever he desires
that she shall reflect
women have no wills of their
own"
"The fair sex are confident, credu-
lous little animals"
81 have always said that women are
inferior to men,"
"Psychologically, women unfit
for politics."
Who are treated like human beings will sit
back comfortably and laugh at the righteousness
delicious ludicrousness-of this.
But some day the women of Italy will be-
gin to laugh too and then there will follow such
a revolution as shall shake Italy no revolution
of its past ever did.
In the meantime women may be inferior to
Nussolin and all of his sex. But at least most
of us don't go about carrying facial expression
which seems to intimate that the carpet before
our bedroom mirror is threadbare.

The poor little equalization fee still seems to
be without platform on which to take up its
abode.
The longer AL Smith talked last Wednesday
the wetter it got. We refer to the weather, of
course.
Nature is grand all right, but her grandness
doesn't prevent her from making terrible mis-
takes when she picks out some parents.

speech we heartily agree:

Governor Smith wants Legislation

What lot Of studying AL. Smith is going to

what is required in the way of details to make

going to study the merits of the combined Can

ject over the Al-Amercan route; he is going to
study the best method Of making every corner
drug store a dspensary for liquor and how to
amend the prohibition law that there won't
be any such law. These are few of the things
Mr.. Smith will study when given the vast leisure
which will be his after his election as president.

VOLSTEAD DISPROvES SMITH.

NDREW VOLSTEAD, father of United
~ State prohibition doesn't think any too
much of Mr.. Smiths stand the ques-
tion--in fact he thinks less than that. In an
opinion given the press following the acceptance
speech by Smith Mr. Volstead said in part:
His proposition to have a scientific nvest-
cation of the quantity of alcohol that liquor may
contain to be Intoxicating is a joke Any one
who knows enough to get in when it rains knows
that such thing is impossible. One person may
drink pint of whisky without showing any in
toXicatng effect while another will stagger af-
ter drinking an ordinary whisky glass full
"f this proposition means anything, it
means that he wants a substantial increase in
the alcohol content of near beer, to go on the
market for sale in the soft drink bars. If this
beer does not contain enough alcohol to have
intoxicating effect it will be no different from
the present beer and satisfy no one. If it does,
it simply means the restoration of the saloon;
the soft drink bars will sell it, and if the brew is
strong enough to satisfy those who care for
stimulent it will intoxicate great many and
serve as cover for the sale of moonshine whis-
ky.
''The plan of selling liquor by the states is
being tried by several of the Canadian provinces.
It's failure there as every well-informed person
knows. The bootleggers are as numerous and as
vicious in Canada as they were in this
country and if bootlegging creates disrespect for
law here, it equally does in Canada. The dry
forces there are as determined to get rid of
government sales people here were to get
rid of the saloons. All protestatons to the con-
trary, the result and only result of Mr. Smiths
scheme would be to restore the saloon. The
scheme that he proposes is vague and is support
ed by no record of success in any country.
"The economic advantages that have come
to us as the result of Prohibition cannot be doubt
ed and so far as know have never been disputed
even by the wetest of the wet. Babson, Gary,
Ford Fisher. Feldman and a host of others have
repeatedly testified to that fact Evangeine
Booth and any number of others closely in touch
with social conditions have repeatedly dsproved
the slanderous attacks made young peo-
pie, and homes by the reckless wet propa-
ganda which the governor repeats"

is now retired, is enjoying splendid
health. He spends considerable

DR.. Tomlinson was rendered a

fifty years of active practice. The
month before, he had attended the
fiftieth anniversary dinner of the
class of '7S of Jefferson Medical Col

In speaking about the medical
profession, DR.. Tomlinson said: "The
young doctors should avoid pursuing
other activities, such as politics or
business, while waiting for practice
to grow, as it diminishes their pres

MAY GRADE TOMATO
CROP In STATE
Ii Plans Proves Satisfactory Growers
May Get $50 A Ton For Crop

Delaware Gamers and tomato
growers are looking forward to a
most progressive step next summer
in the grading and canning of toma-
toes. During the past summer, the
Bureau of Markets of the State
Board of Agriculture, conducted in
spections at two canning plants to
determine whether such a process
was feasible. Another point to be
determined was whether Delaware
tomato growers could successfully
as a commercial activity, grow U. S.
No. l tomatoes.
Both the inspection and the grow
ing of the best kind of tomatoes
were proved and now other Gamers
are planning to ask for inspection of
tomatoes at the canning plants and
will be willing it is believed, to pay
the tomato growers a higher price
for first class goods.
The inspection showed that a load
of tomatoes could be examined in
seven minutes. The tomatoes were
weighed and the amount of U. 5. No.

be too small to accommodate the

CIVIL WAR VETERANS
ENJOY FINE REUNION
J. G. Wilson OF Milford Attended
Affair At Wilmington

Jacob G, Wilson of Milford at
tended reunion of Civil War Vet
Grams of Delaware at Wilmington

alton of the 65th anniversary of Lin
coins Gettysburg address. He was
royalty entertained and met what
few old comrades who are now liv-
ing in Delaware, and was presented
with token of the Civil War men,
bership, which was buttoned to the
lapel of his coat by an old veteran.
A fine dinner was served, after
which music, singing and speaking
was the program. The veterans en-
joyed every minute while listening
to the prepared attractions and eX-
pressed the wish of participating in
a future meeting of old war veter-
ans.
Mr.. Wilson is the youngest Civil
War veterans now living in Della
ware. He enlisted as a member of
the 7th Regiment, Delaware Volun-
teer Infantry, and shOuldered a rifle
in the ranks as regular soldier
when he was only fifteen years and
five months old. There are only two
survivors of his regiment; Wilson
is one of them. His family were
Quakers. He was born in the village
of Preston, Caroline County, Mary
land. The other survivor is John
Radcliffe, SO years old. He lives on
South Walnut street, Milford. There
are only about forty Civil War vet
Grams surviving now in the whole
State of Delaware.
