LEGGE'S FLAX BUG

He also hailed joyfully recent reports indicating
a considerable increase in flax acreage, flaxseed
being a commodity which the United States i'm
ports millions of bushels"
And the linseed oil trust managers at Duluth
joyfully rubbed their fat paunches at this boost
for their business.
Bear in mind, about this flax business, that
there is just one final buyer of flax in the United
States-the linseed oil trust with headquarters at
Duluth.
For many years it has been a policy of this
trust to bangle before the farmers a high price
for flax at planting time. Then, when harvest
time comes the price has taken drastic drop, due
to "over production or some other alleged cause
This was done in the early days of the vast
rush of homesteaders into Montana and the other
northwestern states. About 1870 as it is now
recalled, the linseed oil trust put big propa-
ganda campaign to grow flax" A price Of
about So per bushe was dangled before the eyes
of the homesteaders AS a further inducement it
was held out that flax would rot sod quicker and
better than any other crop that might be planted.
The newspapers of Montana, then, as now, dumb
heads as to farm problems-"fell" for the stuff,
and printed columns of it. The agricultural col
lege at Bozeman-then now, greedy to accept
and repeat such glib-tongued propaganda also
fell for it. and the same institution has again fall
en- for the propaganda in this year of grace 1880
Millions of acres in these northwest states
were that year planted to flax But instead of the
/ $500 price, it dropped to about S1.OO!
Again, few years ago, the trust employed w
! l. Stockton, then president of the Montana Farm
Bureau Federation, to make statewide campaign
of addresses, urging the farmers to "grow NOR
flax"
Again the price was dumped off" in the fall.
Again the newspaper mutt heads fell for tn
stuff" and again the marketing experts" of tn
college at Bozeman, joined in the "whoOpee."
Which suggests that about the first thing Mon
tana's farm folks should do, would be to get dow
on Bonded knees and fervently implore Providenc
to save them from their friends"
Shall farmers plant flax now? Let them d.
eide
Flax is now $3.50 at Duluth. Keep this figul
in mind when you sell next fall.

PAY COST OF
SOCIAL PROGRESS.

Increasing application of sci

Green said in his opening state
ment, "has brought social pro-
gress, but the changes have been
installed without consideration for
what happens to displaced work
ers. Unemployed workers have
been left to pay the costs of So
cial progress"
Questioned by Johnson, the
Federation chief said that unem-
ployment insurance funds could be
established in the various indus
tries by agreement between trade
unions and the management-but
the RELENTLESS war waged against
the American Federation of La
Dor" by big employers in the man.

such relations impossible. In.
deed, he asserted, the chief en-
ployers in mass production indus

centers "hate the A. F. of L. more
than they hate the Communist or.
