The Department of Agriculture has
estimated that 81 per cent of the
mortgaged farms were indebted for
more than half their value last jan
uary. 1t is significant that farms
operated by owners showed a greater
proportion of high debts with over
five per cent of the mortgaged owner
operated farms being indebted for
more than their full value. In 1920
the census showed that SO per cent
of the owner-operated farms were free
from debt but 10 years later those
without financial obligations had been
reduced to So per cent. This problem
continues to harass the money-lenders
and government officials. 1t has even
been projected as a political issue
without much hope of help from par
tisan sources.

Washington, October 5-Threads in
the political web become more tangled
as the crisis approaches. The fore
casting in both partisan camps is con-
fused and misleading. Every office
holder is displaying marked symptoms
of unrest as the uncertainty of the
elections is accumulated by various
straw polls. The small army of govern
ment employees dependent wholly on
patronage are frankly puzzled and
worried. With Democratic trend re-
ported there has been sudden stop
page of campaign ballyhoo in govern
ment offices. Civil service protects
only to a small degree when pressure
comes from high commands. Hence,
the curbing of comment on the cleo
tions as a means of remaining on the
safe side in event of a change of ad-
ministration.
Not waiting until their terms ex-
pire next March, many "lame ducks"
Legislators defeated at the primaries,
are bidding for appointive places be-
fore the elections. The ranks will be
swelled after the second Tuesday in
November. Representative Crisp. a
Democratic leader, has been named
to the Tariff Board Immediately fol-
lowing his failure to win a Senate
seat in Georgia. The pressure on the
President persists with judicial jobs
favored in the demands for patronage
The appointive power of the White

With the baseball championship
struggle out of the papers the propa-
ganda bureaus of the Republican and
Democratic parties are pouring their
broadsides on the public. They have
found that the electorate is not easily
taken into camp with mud-slinging
as of yore. Scouts report that the
average voter is inclined to show
cynicism or amusing Indifference at
bombastic utterances. The old game
of the pot calling the kettle black is
not effective. One major problem is
to arouse their interest in candidates
