The All-Marine football squad

globe-trotters who. collectively, are

IN THE MIDDLEWEsT, March

Another myth is that all farm.
ers are clamoring for Congress
to hand them out ''relief."
l have talked with many Iowsns

Is the gist of their testimony,
testimony which has been all but
unanimous:
1t has not been easy to make
money at farming in recent years.
There have been times when, in
certain sections, it has been prac-
tically impossible to avoid losses.
But the truth. by and large.
is that competent farmers have
been able. generally speaking, to
make living. and in a great
many instances they have been
able TO make at least a modest
amount of money. Some of the
hest Of them. ny employing

have pinned little faith on any

nature.
The loudest complaint has come
from the less competent farmers.
men who probably would not
have made any shining success
in any other line of business.
And farming after all. has to be
handled in businesslike way
if it is to be profitable. And
it has come from politicians anx-

told that the political noise has
