GrasshOppers, Dr0uth
Hit McHenry Farmers

Farmers in the northeastern Sec
ton of McHenry county are faced
with serious shortage of stock
food as the result of grasshoppers
and drouth, according to o. T..
Haakenson, Towner farmer, who is
visiting in Bismarck.
Millions of grasshoppers have
stripped the oat and barley crops
while drouth has reduced the hay
crop to such an extent that many
farmers in the district are faced with
the necessity of selling their stock
for lack of feed, Haakenson said.
While there is some wheat in the
section, the yield is far below that
of a normal year.
Haakenson is in Bismarck visiting
his sons, Arthur and Elvin J.

protein content before taking it to
market was made Thursday by II. O..

The test will give farmers a good

marketing, the agent said.

THE RIGHT OF A MAN
BY EDWIN MARKHAM

by ELI LIN MARhHAM
Out on the roads they have gathered,
hundred thousand men,
To ask for hold on life as sure as
the wolf in his den;
Their need lies close to the quick of
life as the earth lies close to the
stone;
1t is as meat to the slender rib, as
marrow to the bone.
They ask but leave for taste of life's
delight,
For little salt to SAVIOR their bread,
for houses water tight;
They ask but the right to labor, and
to live by the strength of their
hands,
They who have bodies like knotted
oaks and patience like the sea
sands.
And the right of man to labor, and
his right to labor in joy,
Not all your laws can strangle that
right nor the gates of hell de-
stroy,
For it came with the making of man
and was kneaded into his bones,
And it will stand at the last of things
on the dust of crumbled thrones.

Job Insecurity and Low Wages

ask charity organizations to care for
their families.
Prof. Wood added that zone service
of the present depression will he TO
throw the high light of criticism upon
an industrial order that makes such
ravages into the family life of the
people"
Criticism amounts to nothing unless
it results in the application of tangi-
BILE remedies to cure things criticized.
Labor criticizes both normal and
abnormal unemployment and low
wages. Labor also presents remedies
for these evils.
To remedy unemployment, labor
demands that the length of the work
week and work day shall be decreas-
ed to whatever extent necessary tc

provide jobs for all the jobless.
To remedy low wages, labor de-
mands that minimum wages shall be
high enough to enable the people to
purchase the output of all the work
ers in all our industries.
The autocrats who own and con-
troll industry, if they had the will to
do it, could make labor's job and
wage policies effective in short order
So ST. far they they have quite generally
fused to do so.
Labor refuses to permit charity
standards of existence to be set up
permanently in the United States for
millions of the unemployed.
Labor also refuses to permit the
living standards of those who are en-
ployed to be permanently reduced by
part-time work and low pay

day and higher wages must come. II

During the present business depres-

GOVERNMENT OF
COUNTY WORKS
AS BUREAUCRACY
BY ]. s. CAMERON

The people of this country sfrom
its early beginnings, have been buf-
feted between two political ex-
tremes. One is the sacredness and
glory of the franchise, always en-
pnasized by the demagogue, and
the other is the organization OF
governmental power for efficiency.
That is to say a governmental de-
vice that will produce the greatest
amount of good out of the tax dol
lar. Through uncertainty OF
thought and action, we have ac-
CURED the bureaucracy, disowned
by the lover of popular government
and despised by the proponents for
efficiency. The county under the
county government act is a perfect
Illustration of bureaucracy. The
elected officers are responsible to
no one except the people who elect
ed them and their duties are fixed
by legislation. This may be sat-
isfactory, but it is beyond the pale
OF efficiency
In more recent years, cities, which
by the way, are no part OF the
commonwealth, discovered that in
stead of electing numerous Officers
to meet their municipal needs, by
simply electing a commission, with
well defined powers and RESPONSE
bilities to administer, and be re-
sponsible for such administration;
that much better results were OBJ
tanned. 1t met the requirements OF
governmental power for efficiency.
So. when John Citizen goes to the
polls at the city election he elects
administrators for his municipal
needs-yet the same citizen may
seem perfectly content with the
bureaucratic order in the county.
The Home Rule Act is designed
after the commission form of gov
ernment idea. One would think
that when the commission form OF
government with a managerial ten
Gency was efficient because 1t was
managerial, that it would be popu-
lar. Yet most of the charters pro-
posed with a strong managerial
tendency have been rejected. There
is no accounting for tastes. John
Citizen likes his commission in the
city, but will refuse it in the coun-
ty. and he contributes his taxes tc

Seek Decision
On Gasoline Tax

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 16. W.P-
Action to determine whether pay
ment of the state gasoline tax
would be avoided by charitable Or
ganizations collecting products for
use by INDECENT persons, was taken
today by DR.. Fred C. Segleken, OF
the state department of agricul-
ture. .l.#.
Sigurd Russell, promotion. mana
ger of the Los Angeles Cooperative
exchange, and representatives OF
unemployment relief agencies in
Walnut Park, Huntington Park,
Bell, haywood and South Gate, at
a meeting yesterday declared the
cost of gasoline is hampering inde-
pendent relief groups in obtaining
food for the needy.
It was pointed out that surplus
food is available and trucks have
been donated for relief work but
that the cost of auto fuel repre-
sented the most costly item in the
work.
