ADDRESS FARMERS BY RADIO
Former Governor Arthur NJ. Hyde of
Missouri, Now Secretary of Agri-
culture in Presidents Cabinet, Talks

A number residing in Smyrna and
vicinity tuned in" Thursday night on
the address of Former Governor Ar
thur NJ. Hyde of Missouri, now Secre-
tary of Agriculture and selected per
sonally by President Hoover to work
with him in solving the farm problem.
He spoke his first words as the new
Secretary of Agriculture to the farm
ers of the nation. His message was
that their problem was Of concern to
all. Utilizing a radio hookup of more
than score OF stations, the former
governor of Missouri said the agricul-
tural problems were national in
scope and that the solutions, or lack
of solutions, of them will be national
In effect" Mr.. Hyde was a speaker
on the American Farm Bureau radio
community program. He said he had
taken over the duties of the agricul-
ture department with "full realiza-
ton Of its difficulties and with sol
emn recognition" Of his own linlita-
tons. The secretary described agri-
culture as Americas greatest indus
try" He said the American farmer
was efficient, but that agricultural
problems did not end on the farm.
Many problems only begin there. Af-
ter the farmer has successfully met
the problems of production, there re-
main serious problems of marketing
and Of distribution on such a basis as
to return to the farm adequate com
pensation for the service rendered.
We have learned the lesson that the
individual farmer capnot successfully
grapple alone with all the problems
Of his entire industry Perforce, the
farmer must speak through some
agency which reaches beyond his line
fences, out into the market Of Amer
lea and of the world. That agency is
his farm organization. Steadfastly
the farm organizations have stood for
better rural conditions, better schools,
higher living standards. They hold
promise of restoring the control of
the whole agricultural industry to the
farmers themselves"

however, retain the Leinberger garage
on the Boulevard near Commerce
street. Ennis & De&kyne also have
purchased two lots on the opposite
side of the street from their garage
from Archie McClain. Each are so X

.DOAK PROPOSED
FOR SECY LABOR
Author Watson-P Parker
Bill, Labor Misleader

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-The
bureaucracy of the Brotherhood of
Railway Trainmen is proposing to
Hoover for the job Of secretary of
labor one of the most vicious trait
ors to labor, and reactionary labor
lieutenants of capitalism that is to
be found outside of the A. F. of L.
Close To Chamber of Commerce.
Their proposition today was that
Hoover should appoint w. N. Doak,
vice president of the B. of R. T.,
Legislative representative" of the
misleaders in control of this union,
and close associate in many ven-
lures of the U. S. Chamber of Com
merce, a recklessly anti-labor, strike
breaking outfit.
Doak's claim to the cabinet posi-
tion is that he wrote the Watson
Parker, anti-srike law, and cam
paigned for its passage. This law
practically prevents any action by
the unions until months and even
years have been spent in negotia-
tions, allowing the employers plenty
of time to use trickery and assem-
bic strikebreakers.
Hoover is said to be seriously con-
sidering Oak, as he feels that any
body rendering such sterling serv-
ice against organized labor as to
put through the Parker bill
deserves his reward
However, the A. F. of l.. bureau
cracy, which enthusiastically breaks
strikes too, and furthermore en-
dorses the Fifteen Cruiser bill and
all war preparations, needs rewards
too, and is a rival of the Railroad
Brotherhoods for government jobs.
So President Green of the A. F. of
L. or John L. Lewis of the United
Mine Workers of America, are also
to be considered. Lewis, especially,
now that his union has practically
disappeared under his sell-out pol
icy, is in need of consolation.
Appointment of John H. Bartlett.
first assistant postmaster general as
pcstmaster-general in the new cab
met, was recommended this afer-
noon to President-elect Hoover by
Senator Moses, N. H.

Fearing New Taxes on
Land, Ecuador Indians
Rally to Fight Troops

GUAYAQUIL, Ecuador, Jan. s.
The news from Riobamba states
that the Indian uprising against
government army officers, supposed
to be Surveying" the territory, took
place because the Indians believed
that the supposed survey was for
the purpose of levying new taxes
upon them by the government.
The Indians made surprise at
tack on the military group, which
fled, abandoning in the flight it's in
struments. These the Indians took
as trophies through their district
and rallied 5000 or more Indians
who yet are in the field.
Troops sent against them or
scouting duty were attacked from
the heights, the Indians rolling
heavy stones onto one party, ser.
iously wounding two soldiers. The
government, which has disarmed the
Indians previously, counts on the
lack of weapons to give it advan.
tage by using troops equipped with
modern arms.

Trotsky group from U. Chelovitz,

when the children of my school
danced before the workers, they
arose"and shouted with joy. And
why? Because they themselves
were the children of workers and
because I had taught them to ex-
press in simple and natural move

ideals which were nascent in their
blood. Therefore every worker can
understand their art"
So wrote the late Isadora Duncan
