portant opening night affairs with a
retinue Of friends who seem to drip
ermine and bracelets. Her own make
up is arranged to accentuate the re-
juvenated role she has played for
years. Women in the audience drop
programs to stare and marvel. Seem

in the theatre this season. Fannie

Relief Must BE Lasting
wells County Free Press


A comparison of price trends the
past decade shows that the farmer
COR that period produced his crops
end marketed them at figures below
the general price levels for other
commodities. He did not share in the
! prosperity to the extent that other
industries were favored but at least
enjoyed a period when he was not
selling at an actual loss.
Today he is not only selling below
other price levels but is unable to
find any outlet for many Of his pro-
ducts. Sheep barely pay the cx-
pense of transportation to the market
eenters. Oats at five cents per BUSH
ell will not pay the cost OF hauling
to town.
Yet in the face of this depleted
value he is confronted with meeting
debt payments, taxes and interest
costs which are based on prices five
times above the present level. He
must raise five times more now for
dollar of debt payment than he did
a few years ago. And even then he
was selling below the general cost
Of the products that he must con-
sumo.
There is little hope for improve
ment in the farm situation until
prices raise or the farmers debt bur-
den is reduced to commodity levels
Lending the farmer more money will
do him little good. The government,
cannot forever advance funds with
out receiving some return and it de-
mands payments Of its debts. Ad-
vancing more money is just piling uI
the burden little higher.
Loans which enable the farmer to
retire private claims against his grain
or chattels are a form Of aid for the
finance companies for they liquidate
their claims, but the farmer still ha.
the debt to pay. Placing the banks
and mortgage companies on sound
basis will have little effect on the
purchasing power of the farmer and
the wage Garner.
If times and conditions improve as
We fondly hope they will, then the
| farmer should be careful.
People now have a realization OF
the plight Of agriculture. They un-
| derstand the seriousness OF the stu
alton when the basic industry of a
nation is threatened with general
ruin and wholesale bankruptcy.
In seeking relief the farmers should
not be content with . makeshift rem
edy or some measure that does not
offer actual aid directly to agricul-
ture but fight for a plan that will
rot only offer aid soon but will pro-
vide for relief in the case of a re-
currence Of the period through which
we have just passed.

Speaking for the Farmer

In these days OF unrest nearly
everyone has taken it upon himself te
speak for the farmer.
The agriculturlist, it seems, is az
flicted with vocal paralysis, is incap-
able of putting his thoughts into
speech or, as some would have the ma
ton believe, incapable of thought.
The fact, Of course, Is that the
farmers self-appointed spokesman
often has an axe to grind which is
distinctly his own.
AS witness the activity Of propa-
ganda agency, located in Chicago,
which solemnly tells us that the
farmer is against the domestic al
lotment bill. He has perceived it's in
iquities and tallacies, the nation is
assured, and will nave none of
it The only relief which he will
ever get is that which he provides for
himself and he knows it.
In the latter observation there is a
great deal of truth. but the people in
the great agricultural west are not
limited in their choice of weapons OF
modes of attack. They do not have
to depend upon long-suffering and
Job-like patience alone.
Here is the opening paragraph Of
barrage sent out to farm country
newspapers:
LAS an organized minority group
attempts to lobby through con-
ereSs the proposed domestic allot-
ment scheme. thousands OF wage
earners, business leaders and
farmers throughout the country
unhesitatingly condemn the plan
as unsound. The position taken
by farmers is that repeal Of ex-
listing laws which have crippled
the free marketing of commodities
on their exchanges will prove the
greatest incentive to higher farm
prices. Business men, III their
turn, point out that an operation
such as the allotment plan pre-
scribes would leave the farmer
worse off than before"
The quotation contains some infor-
nation about what the farmer wants
which will be news to that horny
handed son of toll. He didn't know it,
it seems, but all he wants Is to 60
back to the free marketing" Of COM
modities.
Perhaps he does. but if he feels that
way he should be permitted to say so
himself. He is fully capable Of doing
so.
For the farmer needs no spokesman.
He does his own talking and, God
willing, he will continue to do so.
Throughout these broad valleys OF
the Mississippi and Missouri he spoke
last fall In voice which shook the
nation. He elected men whom he ex-
poets to hear his voice and do his
bidding. There is no further need for
talk. The farmer now expects action.
