London, Aug 26.-UP)-The
iron chancellor" of Britain Is
confident that nationwide sacri-
flee will save the country from its
present financial emergency.
Philip Snowden. crippled, who
determined to devote his life to
the Interests of the people while
he was recovering from the acct
dent that made him lame for life,
believes that the inherent sound
ness of the British financial posi-
ton and the spirit of her people
will see things through.
AS chancellor of the exchequer
he will be directly responsible for
balancing the budget which held
a $600,000,000 deficit over the
heads Of the late government.
He was more mild, but no less
determined, when interviewed to-
day by the United Press. The
sacrifices which the government
imposes will be equitable as be-
tween all sections of the commun-
ity," he began quietly. The new
government was formed solely to
take Immediate steps to restore in
ternational confidence in Britain"
The veteran chancellor, now 81,
and with temples of iron grey, ex-
pressed his faith In a national
willingness to sacrifice whatever
may be necessary.
"This country Is especially de-
pendent upon the maintenance of
confidence In international credit
and international exchanges" he
said. Recent weakening OF con-
fidence in sterling. withdrawal by
foreign countries of their credits

duces It's purchasing power and
It Is at this point that such lack
of confidence affects everybody.

would mean the reduction of the
value of wages and all other pay
ments. such as pensions, rents, and

Telegraph Editors Note
The United Press presents
herewith an interview with
Philip Snowden, who retains
his post as chancellor of the
exchequer in Britain's new ma
tional government. Snowden,
tight-lipped Yorkshireman,
seldom has been interviewed.
His views on the present Bril-

significant because he will be
responsible, as chancellor, for
balancing he budget and for
far reaching reductions In ma

The Farmers Hunger March in
St. Louis County, Minnesota

the rope, he is compelled by sheer force of
circumstance to think about these matters. The
poor farmer is today face to face with the ever
increasing mortgage problem, interest burden
and the continually rising tax question. He can
no longer escape these facts. Foreclosures,
sheriff sales and evctions are staring him in
the face.
Already actual starvation exists in many parts
of the county. Misery is rampant and suffering
is increasing among the poorest strata of farm
ers at a rapid tempo. 1t is therefore no &C
cident that farmers in such circumstances will
begin to respond to a program of struggle as
expounded in the agrarian program of our
Party.
A Hunger March OF ST. Louis county farmers
has been organized to take place September 81.
Much preparatory work has been done by the
farmers st. Louis County Committee. Many
meetings have been held and many more will be
held until the Hunger March, Monday, Septem-
Der 81. Also thousands of leaflets will be dis
tributed explaining the program of struggle and
the Importance of the Hunger March. 1t is eX-
pected that several thousand farmers will par
ticipate in the Hunger March result of the
preparatory work that is being done. The Dis
trict Buro and particularly the Mesaba Range
Section Committee have been in the forefront of
this movement from the very beginning. With
out the Party guidance the work that has al
ready been done would have been impossible.
While much energy is being expended to make
the Farmer Hunger March a success it is by no
means considered to be an end in itself. The
comrades and the farmers are generally aware
of the fact that the Hunger March can only be
a beginning of the work in the countryside. I'm
less we able to build an organization of
farmers Qocal Committees of Action as a re-
suit of the Hunger March our efforts will have
been wasted And for this reason preparations
are already being made for an intense campaign
of organization among the farmers as a follow
up for the Hunger March. But In the mean
time every bit of energy is devoted to the pre-
parations for the September 81 Hunger March
to Duluth
