US believe that the President and
Congress are trying to do what is
right by our people. But they
can't because their hands are tied
behind their backs by the "invis-
ible government" And the head
of this invisible government is not
Wall street, but a scapegoat of
capitalism, a bootlegger, crook,
a cheap politician. Now the final
section of the film makes a direct
suggestion for the establishment
of Fascism. A small group of the
bonus men is organized to kidnap
this head of the invisible govern
ment and compel him to commit
suicide so that the country can
once more be ruled by Law anc
Order"

This is interesting news. Gull

dent of the Commercial club acted

believe in its principles, it does not
believe in preventing foreclosures
I'm their resolution unanimously
adopted, they are mot In sympa
thy with any portion of the rule:

Why are these business men

should they join the Farmers Holi

the following clipping from the
Duluth News Tribune:
"HAS BAD LUCK"
''The owner of a farm in WyO-
ming is sore. He rented his land
for One-third of the crop. The
renter got a government loan to
buy seed wheat. He gave a
mortgage on all his crops and
livestock. The collector sold the
wheat,
''He sold the corn and potatoes,
too, for which the farm owner
had furnished the seed on time.
The livestock, including pigs and
chickens, went too, and the
household furniture, including
the canned vegetables. All failed
to satisfy the loan, though the
collector refused to permit the
thresher's bill to be paid out of
the proceeds. So the owner of
the farm got no rent. >
ct was claimed that the gov
ernment's loan took precedence
over the rent. The farm owner
says hereafter he will refuse to
rent to anyone who cannot show
that he can furnish his own seed
without recourse to the govern
ment."
