critics who say the Farm Board is put

aimed q blow at those who object be-
cause Government money is loaned to
aid "the agricultural producer carrying
through the marketing of the product

"A peculiar feature of this hue and
cry" he said, ''is that those who holler

taxpayers, and in justice to the heavy
taxpayers of the Nation it must be said
that they have offered little objection to
efforts being made to improve the ag-

percentage basis, or specializing in it,

Mr.. Legge reviewed the troubles of
American agriculture, saying the first
effort to remedy them was made through
the tariff bill of 1876. He said the prob

the World War, With the world facing
tremendous debts, high taxes and high
wages. He denied fatty that the Farm
Board was putting "the Government in

characterized as distressing and
tragic" and as BLOCKING the peace

dresses before 600 women students
of Barnard College, celebrating the
League decennial Two ways lay
open to effect permanent world
peace, Dean Gildersleeve said. The
first OF these she described as de-
veloping the right sort Of public
opinion which will regard the peace
full order of events as the natural
way of settling disputes" and the
second as Setting up Of political
machinery for the use of nations in
place of war" "The relations of
our country with the League OF Ma
tions are distressing and tragic"
she declared 'The United States
can no longer stand aloof, wrapping
her oceans about her. She is al
most certain to be drawn into any
major calamity affecting any other

the immediate re-adjustment of the
United States attitude toward Ge-
