There is no reason why there should be

But the individual farmer can't do
much. He and his neighbors ought to
get together an6 organize for non

That the great twin expositions in

mony of Arthur Stanley Riggs, author
and expert on Spanish affairs, who has
just returned to Washington after a trip
to Barcelona, Madrid and Seville.
AS director TO the Archaeological So
ciety of Washington, Mr.. Riggs went to
Spain to lecture in Spanish before the
Royal Academy Of History in Madrid
on the Status of Archaeology in the
United States, and Our Debt TO Spain"
and to deliver the address of welcome,
again in the Spanish language, in the
American Building on the occasion Of
American week" at the Seville EXPOSE
ton. Mr.. Riggs was selected for this
task by Ambassador Hammond and
Commissioner Campbell because of his
25 years experience as a close observer
of Spanish life and development and
the success of his most recent book,
THE Spanish Pageant" a translation
of which, under the title of Ell Desfile
Espanol," is to appear early next year.

Holds Tennessee
Untawfully Used
Army. Equipment
Secretary Good Requests
Gov. Horton to Guard
Against Use in Future.
BY the Associated Press.


The recent use by Tennessee National
Guardsmen of Army uniforms and
equipment while serving as State police
during the textile strike was declared
by Secretary Good to have been I'M
lawful.
Independent Investigations into the
use Of the Army equipment by members
of the National Guard while doing State
police duty under the orders of the
State authorities were conducted by
the War Department after verbal
charges had been made to the Secre-
tsry by labor leaders that the use of
the Equipment was illegal.
Mr.. Good made public a letter to
Gov. Henry H. Horton of Tennessee re-
9uesting that the equipment not be used
in the future, saying he was convinced
that the Tennessee authorities, who
have approved the use of the equip
ment for the past 10 years, did not
know their act was unlawful.
While there is not a substantial
of the Judge advocate generals ONCE
on the legal aspects, the Secretary said
his opinion would doubtless be sup
ported.
Secretary Good said the department
did not inquire into the question so far
as other States were concerned, since

stitutional provision creating q complex
situation In the calling out Of the Ma

There is way to get results OF best

'If the farmer were to enter any other

to uproot the feeling that farming is

farmer into business and he doesn't be-

but put him on the farm and somehow
he does.
But perhaps I ought to modify that
statement, for it is hardly fair TO the
modern farmer. Measured by the dis
lance he has had to come and the OBJ
stacles he has had to conquer, 1t may
be that the farmer is much more pro-
gressive than he has been given credit
for.
Still it is true that many farmers
today are using methods in agriculture
which they would consider foolish in
the production of anything but farm
products. Farm methods of many years
ago, necessary then because of the pio-

many farms. The world has moved far
