The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1928-04-03
WASHINGTON ~
LETTER XM

in Indian has broken all records
for queer business.
In the exchange Of pleasantries
between Smith and Senator Nye,
chairman Of the Public Lands COM
mittee, neither gained any grea:
honors, although Smith apparently
indicated his integrity.
Nye had told the Senate in re-
spouse to Robinson's query that ''he
understood" Sinclair had contribu-
ted heavily to q Smith campaign.
Later he had to admit that his only
information was Z letter from an
unnamed New York Republican.
Nye gets no credit for making the
charge against Smith, under the cir
cumstances. On the other hand,
Smiths violent letter, accusing, Nye
along with Robinson Of partisanship
and demagoguery, wasn't indicative
Of good Judgment. Apparently he
assumed that the insurgent Nye was
the same sort Of Z Republican as
Robinson, whereas Nye's work in
exposing the oil financing in bis
own party will be . big help ia
Smith in case he is nominated.
Perhaps Smith hasn't progressed
far in his study Of national affairs.
Later he may come to believe with
others that Nye, chairman Of the
Investigating committee on which
Tom Walsh is the big figure, would
like to spatter the Democrats with
oil in order to increase sentiment
for q third party.
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1928-04-03
Ammunition for the Farmers
(ChicapO Trihunel

The house committee on agriculture has ap.
proved, by vote of Is to 6, the bill for farm
relief introduced by Representative Haugen. It
follows closely the provisions of Senator Nc
NaryS bill which has been reported favorably
to the senate. Like the McNary- Haugen bill
which was passed by the last congress, only to
be vetoed by the President, the new one pro-
vides for equalization fees and sterilization
funds, but with the difference that this method
of raising farm prices is not to be employed
until treasury loans to cooperative marketing
associations have failed to produce the desired
results.
There is every reason to believe that the bill
will again be approved by congress, and there
is reason to hope that it will be signed by the
President. Mr.. Coolidge has said that he favors
government help to cooperative marketing as
sociations as the solution of the agricultural
problem. He cannot veto this bill without vir-
tually admitting that such financial assistance
will not, of itself, prove adequate.
The report of the federal reserve board
which has just been made public ought to pro-
vide ammunition for the friends of farm relief
in congress. This report frankly states that
the enormous resources of the reserve system
have been used in recent months to stabilize
credit conditions abroad. The United States,
it is explained, has half of the worlds supply
OF gold and has used it to create prosperity in
foreign lands, thereby placing them in a posi-
ton to buy our goods.
To which the farmers are entitled to reply,
''Why not u.s." The prosperity Of foreign lands
may, in time, improve the market for Ameri-
can goods, but an addition to the buying power
Of the American farmers is certain to do so at
once. The statement of the enormous re-
sources of the reserve system can leave no
doubt OF the ability Of the country to ESTABLISH,
the business of farmers on parity with other
American businesses.
