THE INDEPENDENT FARMER

THE INDEPENDENT FARMER
 IT the good old days one reads about every farmer was an tnde- pendent person who didn', belong to anything except q church Least Of all, h. had never heard Of cooper a,iye associations, farm bureaus. Crarres, or other organized farm CTS associations. Perhaps he didn't need them. Ho @rumhlnd all 10 him self.
 Nowadays one reads that every goycrnmon. official stauachly advo- cates that farmers should belong to co-operatieo associations; and mil Hons of hem do thus belong. They read all about tho wonderful bene- fits, and how 10 hang together spells better success than 10 hang separate ly
 Also. 'here is the possibility that joint action may help To raise prices; which docsn'. always happen, how ryer.
 II has been the object of the Government to place cheap money at the disposal Of the farming popu- lation. and for this purpose various methods have been tried. But such money only goes 10 the farmers through the cooperative associa- tons, and the independent farmer, i. he needs money, is entirely out ot the picture if he has desire 10 en- Joy this type Of aid.
 The F-rm Board is not loanInS money 70 farmers in its efforts 10 s.a0iliz. what fl is trying 10 stabilize mostly unsucccssfully. It is tEe in tcrmoGiara credit banks, created in 1928. and the federal land banks, created in 1916. which are empower 'D ID grant ifOu lJtlcIl Al'HiN " farmers, But even the credit and land banks may not lend directly to individual farmers, but only 10 CO., operatives. credit associations, and other organized agricultural groups.
 The joint stock land banks, how ever, may actually lend directly to individual farmers-in theory. But these joint stock land banks have been rather out of the picture dur ing recent years. In the first place none of these joint stock banks iS authorized 10 make loans without good prospect of repayment, and al the present time they might be par. doned for looking askance at the possibility Of repayment from farm, CTS harassed with prices at or below the cost Of production.

of a grating gang of politicians;

Hits at Governor
Commenting on the reaction,
Liggett said:
MY article flatly declared that
Governor Allen could not escape
responsibility for conditions and
was justly blameable if bootleg.
gers, white slavers, dope peddlers
and other underworld characters
were allowed to prosper in Bos-
ton under police protection
Events of the last few days have
fully Substantiated my statement"
he asserted.
The whole force of the Allen
administration has rallied to de
feat measures introduced by Scna-
tors Joseph j. Mulhern and Henry
ParRman. jr., which would have
resulted at least in a partial in
veStigation of the police force by
throwing some light on the rea-
sons why Oliver B. Garrett, for
mer liquor squad chief, was re.
tired on a pension
Originally Governor Allen re-
ferred these charges to Wilson
for investigation and Wilson is the
very man under fire. Once more
Governor Aliens friends nave
sought to oppose a real expose and
are seeking to sidestep by having
Garrett examined by a medical
board. I do not believe the people
Of Boston will be deceived by
these idiotic Subterfuges.

''Tt is perfectly true that am
rot in the least interested in turn

if the prosperous heads of these
powerful vice Syndicates are al
lowed to go scot free. The only
persons I am interested in expos
ing are men who profit enor-
mously by organized crime and
hypocritS in high places, also vote
dry and protect criminals in their
wrong doing These are the forces
who are debauching and corrupt

Danger That Pack Ice
Will Trap Byrd Crew

NEW YORK, Jan. Is QN.S).-
The climax in the dramatic bat
tie between time and ice, center
ing around Admiral Richard Byrd
and his Antartic expedition, will
come within the next few weeks,
DR. Isaiah Bowman. director OF
the American Geographical So
ciety, declared today. Byrd is
waiting a chance to come safely
out of Antarctica before the Ross
Sea ice pack imprisons bis ex-
ped1tion.
The outcome cannot be pre-
dicted and the world must wait
until the latter part of February
for the climax, DR.. Bowman said.
Break Due in February
"February is really the open
month and We shall not know I'm.
til then whether or not the ice
pack will behave as it has in
other years" Bowman said.
While reports from Little
America indicate that the pack
is clinging together in greater
masses than usual, DR.. Bowman
stated this did not mean it
would not break up. He said
that just as the coldeSt weather
follows several weeks after the
shortest day, and the hottest
weather is seen after the longest
day, the period Of breakup in the
ice comes far behind the period
of cold weather. He said
scientists have not been able to
say definitely that the ice pack
always breaks up.

assured by Treasury and Justice
officials that the usual penalty Of
SIS a bottle is not believed to be
sufficient punishment. They in
dicated Shields said that they will
seek Pratt's indictment on con-
spiracy charge.
According to information obtain
able, the alleged smuggling plot
was first reported by Ernest S.
Braidwood, of Somerville. N. j.,
former Customs employe. The in
formation was placed in the hands
of a Federal prohibition agent,
who, it is said, conducted the inveS-
tigation and collected the evidence
unknown to his Superiors.
According to an affidavit sent
to President Hoover and later
transmitted to the Treasury De-
partment, 81 casks of rare French
wine. were shipped to Pratt from
France. OF these 54 cases, all
labeled pottery" only three con-
tained pottery. The three casks
containing pottery. it appears
were inspected, found to contain
pottery and the rest of the casks
then cleared.
These casks. it is said, con-
tanned 240 cases of champagne.
They were delivered to a ware
house in the lower end of Man.
haitian Island. Several days later
they were delivered to Pratt'S
summer home at Glen Cove, Long
Island, it is charged.
