PLAYING 1T SAFE

For the past two or three wears with weather conditions
better than average and grain prices fairly good the temp
tation TO plant as large acreages as possible was strong. But
he safe policy is being indicated again as the present sea-
the stress Of unfavorab!e weather during June while spring
plowed and stubbled crops are showing the effects OF a lack
of moisture.
We no longer hear any disputes as to the value OF tai
law practice. 1t is generally conceded to be the necessary
practice in this state on the bench land. Where a few years
ago there was an inclination to dispute the practicabllty OF
the idea, it is accepted as the proper theory.
But while we accept the theory, it has not yet been
followed wholly in practice. Grain growers have taken the
chance on shot gun flaming in the hopes of striking the un-
usual year that will bring good returns under any planting
methods. The attempt 10 secure two crops IN three years
has been quite generally made with full knowledge of the
risk involved.
The standard practice is going to force itself on this
section however. The fact that the tractor is becoming the
almost universal dependence of the grain grower for power
is, for one thing, going to make it necessary to play the
game as safely as possible. The cash outlay tor growing
the crop that is involved in the use OF power machinery
makes It imperative TO use safe methods. Much Of that
cash outlay is as great for the small crop as the large, for
the crop failure as for a fair yield. The chance taking is
more dangerous than when horse farming was the rule.
This wears developments SO tar are another sign that
needs to be needed. The uncertainties of grain growing are
great enough at the best. To increase the uncertainty UNI
necessarily is not the part OF wisdom. Large scale farming
does not Justify poor cultural methods. Power farming does
not justify them.
The f%fty-fifty plan is becoming a standard practice. We
confidently expect to see the rule generally followed OF
other developments. We may see a legume forage or pas
ture crop introduced in the rotation. The effect OF the
grain-falow rotation on the texture of the soil is not yet
a matter of certain knowledge.
But playing it as safe as possible is the rule that will
win in a period of years in dry land areas.-Chinook Opinion

WAR UPON CRIME

"Scotlsnd Yard is the term usually applied to the secret
service connected with the police force of London. For many
decades this organization has been considered the most eff
ficient instrument in the world for the detection and pun
ishment of criminals. People who live outside the law would
probably prefer to have any other organization in existence
after them than the men representing Scotland Yard, UNI
less it be the equally famous and effective mounted police
Of Canada. In an effort to combat more successfully the
crime wave which has become more or less a fixed institu-
ton in New York, Police Commissioner Grover c. Whalen
is organizing a special force of some fifty men who are to
be trained in the general methods Of the noted English
service. These men, all of them young and of proven intelli-
gence and physical fitness, will never be known to the public
by name. Every effort will be made to keep their identities
and movements absolutely secret. They will even be stran-
gers to other members Of the regular police force. Their Job
bers of the law-breakine fraternity. 1t could seem that
this plan should produce results. There have in recent years
been a number of sensational murders in the metropolis
and the killers have never been apprehended. Numerous
daring robberles and other crimes have been committed
without the perpetrators ever being brought to the bar Of
Justice. Our entire country has become notorious for the
number Of murders committed and the failure of the law
enforcing authorities to solve the mysteries surrounding
them. The suspicion is widespread that, in MANY instances,
police and other officials are not SO ignorant of the facts in
many cases OF violent crime as they pretend to be. The new
secret service being organized by Commissioner Whalen
may not only %apprehend those who actually commit major
crimes but their activities may also lead to the identified
ton OF faithless public officials who, for one reason or an
other, help to conceal, rather than discover, the perpetrators
of those rimes.@ewistow Democrat-News.

Continuing their reign of terror

the Negro section of Harlem, Tam
many police Wednesday night fired
on and brutally assaulted more than
a score of members of the Com
munist Party and Young Communist
League, when they broke up an open

Ave. Thirteen workers were ar
rested, two of whom were sentenced
to one day each in jail.
More than a half a dozen meet

SOVIET MINING
OFFICIALS HERE
To Confer with u. S.
Engineering Firms

A delegation of three leading Of
ficials of the Soviet Yuzhtrest
(Southern Ore Trust), the principal
iron ore mining organization of the
Soviet Union, has just arrived here
to study iron ore mining and equip
ment markets in the United States.
Included in the delegation are I.
N. Grinyev, director of the central
mines of the Krivoy Rog district in
the Ukraine; A. V. Britchkin, chief
engineer of the northern group of
mines, and B. N. Gladovsky, chief
mechanical engineer of the Trust.
Iron ore production in the Krivoy
Rog Basin, which accounts for more
than two-thirds of the total produc-
ton of the Soviet Union, has been
showing a rapid increase in recent
years, and is to effect even greater
production next year as the mines
of the Southern Ore Trust will be
completely reorganized.
The Southern Ore Trust delega-
tion which will soon be joined by
four additional Soviet engineers, in
tends to establish contacts with
American engineering firms and
possibly to arrange for technical as
sistance in the upbuilding of the
Soviet iron ore industry-one of the
few industries which has not as yet
attained its pre-war position.

DenOunces Firing

Following the firing upon Negro
and white workers at Communist
open air election meeting in Har-
lem by Tammany police, the Negro
Department of District 2, Communist
Party of the U. S. A, has issued
this statement:
The activities of the Communist
Party ard the Young Communist
League in its open air meetings in
the past few months have been met
with wholesale police terrorism,
which must be met with mobilization
of the entire Party in the District to
defend the Negro masses of Har-
lem in fighting for the right of free
speech. The class character of this
campaign of terrorism is clearly seen
by the fact that the democratic and
republican parties and various religi-
Gus organizations are permitted to
hold open air meetings without any
hindrance, while almost every meet
ing of the Communist Party, since
the election campaign, has been
broken up in the most brutal fashion
