Treasurer Robinson will be credit ed to the district in which the donor resides.
 Waterbury was the first city in the state to subscribe it's full quota of $4,000 in the recent Victory campaign. Notwithstanding the times the local committee. feels that the rank and file or the party will rally with It's customary generosity to put the drive over. It is an op- portunity for all democrats to show their appreciation of the successful efforts of the national committee by aiding them to li- quidate the indebtedness of the party and to formulate plans for the future retention of all honors gained in the, great victory of November 9th, 1882.

Iowa Farmers Divided
BY HARTZELL SPENCE
United Press stan Correspondent

DES MONIES, Ia, May 1I.-An
intimate, unvarnished picture of
just how farmers, urged by the Ma
tional Holiday Association to Join
in a nationwide strike May 13, view
the embargo was obtained from two
Iowa planters.
Each operates an average farm in
the heart of the corn belt. Each
proflted in the boom years, and
each has felt the pressure of depres-
sion prices and debts since 1929.
Equally sincere in their convic-
tons, one will not join the strike;
the other will.
Wants to Try Relief
Lester O. Hunter, cattle feeder
and poultry raiser on $50 acres Of
good Boone county land, is IS and
father of two boys.
He feeds several carloads of cat
tie annually, and has one of the
most modern chicken hatcheries in
the state.
Il surely am not in favor of the
strike" Hunter told the United
Press. Il feel that it is unfair to
the government, especially to Presi-
dent Roosevelt and congress. It's
apparent that they're really trying
to do their best for us.
Lets try this farm relief plan
before we get into such a thing as
a strike"
whats the Use?"
On the other side is John Edgren.
He is middle-aged corn and cattle
raiser near Oskaloosa, in Mahask
county. He will be in the front
ranks when the strike begins Satur-
day.
IF we can't get cost of produc-
ton, what's the use of selling our
crops?" Edgren asked. I'VE might
as well hold them. I'm going into
this strike, and so are a lot of my
neighbors.
We've got to show the country
how bad things are"
