Roosevelt Signs Measure to
Stabilize Starvation, And
Start Initiation +

The Roosevelt Farm Relief
bill was signed by the Presi-
dent on May IL after having
come through the Senate on
May 10. The only disagree
ment which developed in the
Senate was whether the cost
OF production amendment of
Norris and Simpson should
be included or not. 1t was
not.
Even if it had been it would
have meant very little to the farm
ers since it does not even pro-
vide a decent standard of living
for them. All it meant was that
they would get enough to be able
to pay their interest and debts to
the bankers.
The bill as passed consists of
three sections, none of which bode
anything but i'll for the farmer.
STABILIZING STARVATION
1. The secretary of Agriculture
is authorized to cut production by
either the allotment plan of the
leasing of farm land to take them
out of production. This means the
Sterilization of starvation and
putting the working class of the
country on hunger basis.
2. Liquidation of the frozen
farm mortgages of the insurance
companies and the banks, by ex-
changing them for Federal Land
Bank bonds, guaranteed by the
government. The farmers get only
a change in masters. Two billion
dollars will go to the bankers thru
this section.

HAVE TO EAT

Monday the workers gathered
again and about 80 of them went
into the Council Oak store and
told the manager they had to have
something to eat. He answered
that he could not let them have
any as the company would hold
him responsible.
The spokesman for the workers
said they did not care who was
held responsible, they had to have
food. The workers took their bas-
kets and filled them with the
most necessary and substantial
food, told the clerks to check up
what they had helped themselves
to, and charge it to the county or
State, They took about $75 worth
of groceries.

Reno in Effigy at
Kaukauna, Wis.
RENO RESPONSIBLE.
Holiday Leader Says That
Farmers Should Wait
For Roosevelt
RENO RESPONSIBLE.

Milo Reno, president of the
National Holiday Association.
IN one of the most open and
brazen acts of betrayal of the
interests of the farmers. de-
clared the farm strike off on
Friday, May IL, one day be-
lore 1t was to have gone into
effect.
The statement by which
Reno called off the strike
reads as follows:
1.-The national officers and
representatives of the HOIi-
day Association in the
northwest are suspending
the strike order until the
President is more fully I'M
derstOOd and the effect of
his farm relief program
is known.
HOLIDAY MEMBERS
EMBITTERED
I Throughout the country and
particularly. among the farmers
who are members of the Holiday
Association a bitter resentment
has developed against this open
act of treachery.
In Kaukauna, Wisconsin, the
formers who went on strike de-
spite RenOis sell out hung him in
effigy.
The betrayal and attempted sell
out of the strike movement was
the work of Reno, Olson, Farmer
Labor governor of Minnesota, and
the Roosevelt administration.
TO TAKE FARMERS
UNAWARES
In order to make his treachery
effective Reno held up his order
declaring the strike off until the
day before it was to be called. By
this vancouver he hoped to take
the farmers unawares, and crush
the strike movement by the un-
certainty tn at would develop
among thee farmers.
Reno gave as the reason for
calling off the strike the fact that
Roosevelt had asked the insurance
companies to go easy on foreclOs-
ing and evicting and that farmers
should wait to see what came of
his farm relief program.
Reno met in st. Paul, Minnesota
on May IL, with a few Holiday
leaders. Gov. Olson was desig-
mated as the one who should sup
ply the excuses for calling off the
strike.

STOP
AFORCED SALE
Peoples Protective League
Rallies Farmers; Sheriff
Aids Attorney

Vancouver, Wash, May 49,
Over 100 farmers gathered here
May 16 in an attempt to prevent
a foreclosure sale. The sale went
thru as a result of the assistance
given to the attorney for the
plaintiff by Sheriff r. E. McRite.
The farmers were called to pre-
vent the sale of the farm of E.
w. Willett, by the Peoples Pro-
tective League, a militant farmers
organization.
HOLD PLAINTIFF
A group of farmers went to the
office of the attorney f or the
plaintiff and held him there until
after the sale was over. The att
torney, however, got away. When
the attorney got to the court
house the farmers massed there
refused to let him in. Finally the
sheriff came to his rescue and he
forced a way through the crowd
for him.
The chief deputy read the sale
order. One farmer bid 81 another
$1.50. In voice that could barely
be heard the attorney bid the
amount of the mortgage and the
property was declared sold to the
plaintiff whom he represented.
The attorney followed the sher-
iff into the court house through
fear of the farmers who had be-
come embittered by the deal.

on the level, that are worn
down on the outer side, throw
bones, tendons and muscles out
of proper position, weaken ank-

Although we recognize that
a man doing heavy, laborious,
muscular work requires more
fuel in the shape of food to
revitalize his body than does,
for example, a woman Of 100
pounds who merely amuses her
self about the house all day,
we seldom think of such diff
ferenceS in a scientific way;
nor do we act upon them &C.
cordingly.
Overeating is as bad, how
ever, if not worse, than under
eating, and the big man may
be stuffing himself too much,
despite his energy requirements.
Nor should we think of food
merely in terms of amount.
It is more important to think
of food in terms Of its caloric
content.
A calorie, strictly speaking,
is the amount Of heat required
to raise the temperature of one
gramme of water through one
degree on a Centigrade ther-
mometer. In other words, if a
given amount of any food has
a caloric value of 100, let us
say. it means it will produce
in the body, when oxidized or
burned. enough heat energy to
raise one gramme of water 100
degrees Centigrade, or 100
grammes of water one degree
Centigrade.
To give an idea of the rela-
tive values of different foods
let it be added that an ounce
of any protein or carbohydrate
(starch or sugar. food will
yield '113 calories, while an
ounce Of fat will yield as much
as 225.

else, requires for health about

Perhaps you do not know

there have been thousands of
dollars worth Of imported
shoes worn in America. That

country, work taken away from
American craftsmen. But now,
in answer to the Buy Ameli-

shoe man has come back with a
definite answer. He is substi-
tuting sports shoes made in
America, sturdy and smart, at
prices as low as the imported
shoes can be sold for. They
are made on the Pacific Coast,
where many Of our best sports
styles start, but they have al
ready arrived in Washington.
A New Leather
Four styles have been
sketched today, and they have
many new features that are
good. They are Of a different
sort Of leather that hasn't been
used in shoes before, as far as
we can find out. It is calf that
has been finished like suede,
but is Sturdier, because 1t is
made of more mature skins.
The smooth, soft finish is there,
and the shoes will be easy as a
glove on your foot, but they
will wear unusually well. The
leather is scratch-proof, and
the soles have a new rough fin
comes in beige or gray. Even
the soles have a new rough fin
ish, but are pliable so that they
give you a panther-like tread.
For All Sports

called "all American and is

sketch can show it. "Air mail"
is another of those tongue
shoes, modified so that it too
would make a good shoe to
wear with a tailored suit. The
price is only $2.95, which is
really misleading, for they are
so much better looking than
such a low price suggests.
