Tor Democracy IN America,
"The Tragic Era" and
Secretary A dams now
comes forward to persuade
the people that Mr.. Hoover
and his Administration
during the market madness
took the proper and neces-
sary steps to warn the peo-
pie against the inevitability
Of a market crash. He re-
members that Mr.. Hoover
told Mr.. Mellon that some
thing should be done. We
remember that when Senator
Carter Glass said this
openly in the Senate he was
attacked in Administration
circles and pretty roundly
blackguarded by the Admin
istration press.
But the average mans
memory is keenest on one
point-that the highest Off
cials Of the peoples Govern
ment continued up to the
moment Of the crash, which
wrought the ruin of hun
dreds of thousands and
wrecked the fabric of
American business, to issue
reassuring statesments to the
effect that there were sound
values behind the grotesque
quotations on the market.
These functionaries of the
peoples Government, know
ing that this was false, thus
betrayed vast numbers to
their absolute ruin.
There is no earthly de-
fence for that; no answer.
Fuss About"
Stock Sale
But Secretary Adams, a
charming man, but not
noted for his political sagac-
ity, was not happy in his
sneer at Roosevelt for prom
Using the vast number who
nave been vlctlmlzed by the
unloading on the American
market of worthless foreign
securities, with government
tai connivance, that this sort
of scullduggery shall be
stopped. We quote:
What do you think of
the greatness of a man who
wants to stop and fuss
about the promotion and
sale Of a few securities
when men are hungry on
the streets and want some
thing to start the wheels Of
industry now?"
Mr.. Hoover, then, is not
going to "fuss" about the
unloading of these securities
upon a people deceived by
the apparent sanction of the
Government. This is an
astonishing position to as
sumo. It will be very pleas
ing to those international
bankers who have made
enormous commissions on the
floating of these securities;
but not so impressive to the
victims. And it may seem a
bit appalling to simple souls
who have certain standards
Of morals and ethics in busi-
ness and government.
Gravity Of Crash
Belittled by Hoover
Again, one would think,
from Mr.. Adams inept
defense, that Mr.. Hoover's
administration has been too
intent IN "the hungry in
The Washington times., 1932-09-03

leisure to "hunt and fish,;
that Secretary Lamont was
sure the hunger Of the
children would have a fine
and wholesome effect upon
their character; that Mr..
Hoover made a virtue Of his
position for two years that
mot one penny Of Federal
money should be used to
assuage the hungry.
We know that the Ad-
ministration opposed and de-
feated an adequate public
works program; that it fl
nally after a bitter battle
agreed to a program pitt
fully inadequate.

Relief Program
Passed, Neglected

keIlet Program
Passed, Neglected
And we know something
more: that when Mr.. Hoover
reluctantly agreed to an ap-
preparation of $322,00O,0OO
for public construction to
put hungry men to work it
was assumed that the work
would be pushed with the
utmost speed.
More than 40 days have
passed-and nothing has
been done. The money is
unused. The construction
has not begun. The hungry
have not been employed.
And Senator Wagner has
just written Ogden Mills,
who does not have time to
fuss" about rotten for
eign securities because Of
his deep sympathy for "the
hungry in the Streets" de-
manding an explanation.
It is not a sufficient an
swer that all the members
Of the Cabinet with one ex-
ception are too busy on the
stump urging Mr.. Hoover's
reelection to attend to the
business Of the nation.
Mobilization
Not Action
With an adequate program
Of construction defeated by
Mr.. Hoover, with the made
quate program which would
take some of the "hungry
in the streets off the pave
ments neglected, Mr.. Hoover
now takes cognizance of the
fact that we are to enter a
third winter Of human
misery. He is going to
"lead" again. Not by hav-
ing the Government do any
thing-but by "mobilizing"
the welfare organizations
dependent on private charity
to care for "ths hungry in
the streets.
But these welfare organi-
zations already are modified.
They have been modified
and over-burdened through
out Mr.. Hoover's admins
tration. They with munich
pal governments, like New
York, and the States, like
New York, have been going
ahead and doing the best
they can to feed "the hun
cry in the streets without
any aid from the Federal
Government.
The last time a spokesman
of the Administration ap-
peared before the welfare or
ganizations, "mobilized" in
convention, Secretary La
mont made his CHEEKY COM
ment that we shall have a
finer race because of the
hunger of the children, and
we recall that that he was
sternly rebuked by delegates
from the floor.

cow TESTING

F 0 R ROWAN
Benefits Of Association
Cited-Raise Only Best
CaIpes From Best CONS.

Heretofore it has been a much de.
bated question among sofae dairymen
whether they should join a Cow Test
ing association. In times of low price.
it becomes absolutely necessary to dc
everything possible to check "leaks'
and cut down overhead expenses. Cow
testing does that. The writer was test
er for three years with an association
composed of "a dairymen who had
900 cows. During that time the av-
erage increase in. milk per COW wa:
1852 pounds o. a gain of "a per cent
in milk production.
In butterfat production, the in
crease was even greater, jumping from
227 pounds per COW the first year to
sol pounds the third year for an av-
erage gain>of "a pounds of butterfat
per COW or an increase of 81 per cent.
The profit above cost of feed was
1912. greater per GOV the third year
than it was the first, showing that
each COW in the association was max
ing 1S1 per n more profit above
cost of feed in the. comparatively
short time Of three years. This great
increase in profit was made notwith-
standing the fact hat the average
cost of feed per COW advanced from
$62.74 the first year to $4,000 per
COW the third year, or an increase of
l23 per cent.
These results were accomplished by
locating the Improbable COWS and
selling them to the butcher, and by
feeding better and more economical
rations. The small cost of this work
to the dairy farmers were repaid man
fold in this association in actual
dollars and cents"
In summing up, it is evident that
in. these distressing times, the dairy
man cannot afford to keep low pro-
ducing~ and Improbable cows. He
must lower the of production of
milk, and herd improvement ascot
alton work will do this now as it has
always done it in the past
