Then came the drouth and the panie
Naught but mortgage and thistle were grown
The poultry and some stock were dying
So he vowed he would get a feed loan.
They replied now we can see no reason
Why single man like you should need aid
But the stock and poultry could see no difference
In their stomachs pain and grim hunger weighed.
At length around his neck hung mortgage
foreclosure sale came at last
And now he is leaving his homestead
bis mind dwells long and sad on his past
They had robbed him both coming and going
And at all times he had been the goat
These thoughts made him tremble with anger
And he felt hard lump in his throat.
The bitter drop was all for the farmer
And the cup of joy was for the profiteer
The products he raised brought him little
While the things he must buy they we're dear.
There are four hundred and ten farmers
In this country foreclosed on each day
You may sheer tbs but Red propaganda
But it is what our statistics do say.
Says the rich, to tie farmer and worker
Why didn't you save, they jeer and they taunt
And again they say cease your ruthless boarding
While the farmer grows more ragged and gaunt
Then come all you ragged dirt farmers
And demand that on the land we remain
For it is we that have built and done the laber
And the idlers our land should not gain.

Warns Wall Street that
Capitalism Faces Collapse

Jules Sauerwein, of the Paris
Soir, who arrived in New York or
May 81 brought to the capitalists
of the United States a warning
that capitalism in Europe wa.
facing the militant challenge o.
the working class and that its ex
istence was being threatened.
"A new and distressing hap
pening in the last three years"
ne declared. 'is that the peOple
no longer seem to have the psy-
Geological resistance they had
during the war. They had it on
the battlefields and in the crisis
after the war;, But now it seems
their mental resources are al
most exhausted. At least in
Europe it is SO. The result is
on one side. fear, and on the
other. despair.
The people On the Continent
are off balancing more equi-
ibrium."
By this he meant that the toll
ing masses are losing the illusionl
about capitalism which they had
They are becoming desperate, ant

Japan Settling with Unrest

According to Frazier Hunt, war
correspondent and National Broad
casting Company observer, Japan
is seething with unrest and dissat-
isfaction, the same as the rest Of
the world" Hunt made this state
ment in radio broadcast from
Tokyo on June 1 which was re-
transmitted over a nationwide
hookup. "Among certain classes
this takes the form of a general
Red movement. This is limited,
however, to the working men of
the city and young college stud
ents and lacks leadership" Hunt
tried to cover up the leading role
taken by the Communist party of
Japan in the growing struggle a.
gainst japanese Imperialism.
