TELLS CAUSE OF DEPRESSION
Editor Askov American:

Editor Askov American:
In the article in your paper, taken
from The Capital Times, Madison
Wis, we read that said paper has
received the best statement they have
seen in diagnosing the cause of the
present depression. Then | hunted
through the article to find it, but
did not find one word about the cause,
but every bad thing that the depres-
sion has caused, or we can say what
the depression is. And this state
ment | found: The price of the
American dollar must come down."
According. to old talk whether we say
the price of the dollar must come
down, or we say the price of COM
same thing, but in this case the writ
er says: "A reduction in the amount
of gold in the dollar is not unthink-
able"
He wants (as near as l can under
stand) our gold dollars to be coined
over and decrease the gold in them In
proportion to what prices on commod-
tiles has gone down, but then the gold
should be coined over whenever
prices on commodities go up or down.
He says all the trouble is on ac-
count of the dollar has grown so big.
But there is no more gold in it then
there was at the time our money
system was established when United
States became a nation. So there
is no gold to be taken out of it..
Such people that don't believe in TAX
ing gold out of the dollar, or split
it up in several pieces and call each
piece a dollar he says are DOGGY
men" (fine gentleman TALK
When he says, all the trouble is
On account of the dollar has grown
big, the meaning of it must be, that
prices on commodities have gone
down, but he forgot to tell US the
cause of it. So l will say it is on
account of too little buying power.
Then comes the question: What has
caused too little buying power? The
labor saving machines are doing the
work instead of workers by the many
Iilll1OlS, anu Tic anu SCI
lers of goods are thereby deprived of
SO much sale as the idle workers
earnings would be if they were at
work. Then comes the big capital
| lists. Five hundred of them had in
one year an income of from $1,000
900 up to S15,O0O,0O0. Such extreme
| incomes resulted In that five per cent
of the people are the owners of 80
per cent of all wealth. (Not from
such one year, but from long run
in that Way Then there is not
enough left for people to live on SO
to pay fair prices for products. That
going of profits to the rich must be
reversed by an income tax for the
idle to live on. Good prices for pro-
ducts can not be paid without an in
come to do it with. By the time
such an income Is obtained we will
have all the farm relief we need
But fair price fixed by law can
not be paid when there is no income
to pay it with.

DRASTIC THINKING

Newspapers, magazines and the ra-
corning drastic legislation being in
troduced in the many Legislatures of
the country as we'll as in Congress
these days. There can be no doubt
that the people are thinking about
governmental and economic matters,
and that many brains are working
overtime in an endeavOr to solve sonic
of the great economic problems con-
fronting the country and TO relieve
the present situation.
The other day state senator in
North Dakota brought out a proposal
that 80 states secede from the Union.
leaving "a financial East" of nine
states as a country by itself. The
senator. w. f. Martin, charges that
eastern states have become rich "at
the expense of the rest of the Union"
and therefore is in favor of separation
of the Union into two countries. The
states which he calls the financial
East" are Maine, New Hampshire,
Vermont, Massachusetts,, New York,
Pennsylvania Connecticut, Rhode Is
land. and New Jersey. He proposes
that the remaining states secede car
rying with us the Star-Spangled ban
ner and leaving them Cthe other
states) the stripes which they richly
deserve"
1t is, of course, entirely out of Or
der TO think that all of the people in
the nine states mentioned are not in
sympathy with the people of the West
and that they have no problems in
common with US. They have the poor
as well as. the middle and weather.
classes of people in the financial
East as we have such classes in
the West But the resolution goes to
show that there is dissatisfaction with
the manner in which finances of the
country have been conducted, especi-
ally in the past decade.
''All We are demanding" the reso-
luton continues, lis that our remain

and carry out the principles of demo
cratic government as founded by the
immortals, Washington and Jeffer-
SON.
The resolution further charges
there has grown up in the eastern
states a financial oligarchy with Wall
Street as the center of financial power
of the Union" and that Wall Street
interests are now seeking to reach out
through the chain banking system to
obtain absolute control of the balance
of the nation which they already have
looted through the tariff system, and
with the purpose in view evidently cf

The resolution also strikes a body
blow at foreign loans and the bad
effects thereof in the way of involv-
ing this country in war with other
countries result which the author
maintains is brought about by such
loans.

Transocean Flight Sponsors
Tell Public Works
Plan is Feasible.

BY the Associated Press.
Advocates of a transocean flight serv-
ice, with anchored seadromes to be used
as airports, told the Technical Board of
Review of the Public Works Admins
tration today their plan was wholly
feasible and practical"
The Seadrome Ocean Dock Corpora
ton Of Wilmington, Del, has applied
to the Public Works Administration for
a 0,000,00 loan to be used in con-
structing five giant seadromes to be
anchored at 400-mile intervals across
the Atlantic.
The air route would be by way Of the
Azores, which would be a natural land
ing field and would save the construc-
tion of sixth seadrome
E. r. Armstrong, inventor OF the sea-
dromes, told the board at a hearing
that the proposed structures, with their
21,00O-ton anchors, would be entirely
stable"
The seadromes would be equipped
with radio beacons to guide flyers on
air routes and each would have hotel
accommodations for approximately 200.
They would be similar to aircraft
carriers. with long fiat deck for land
ing. To eliminate drifting and action
by waves, long, leg like structures going
deep into the water would act as floats
for the decks.
advocates OF the plan claim the loan
could be liquidated with tolls collected
from flyers Of all nations using the
airdromes.

DANVILLE, Va, October SO.-,John
Strader, victim of a religious mania
during which he drowned his year-old
daughter Dorothy as sacrifice" Sat-
urday night. today had been committed
to the insane asylum. He was adjudged
insane yesterday by a commission of
lunacy composed Of DR.. W. o. Emer-
son, DR.. J. c. Giles and Magistrate
r. S. Fits and ordered committed to
the asylum for the criminal insane.
Strader, who was known to be deep
ly religious and who for several months
had talked in q confused manner of a
compulsion he felt to make a living
sacrifice" took the child to Dan River,
near his home in the Bachelors Hall
community 10 miles from here. and
held her under the water until she was
drowned.
Meanwhile city and county police
and hundreds of neighbors, fearful of
a tragedy In view of the 45-year-old
farmers mental condition and his talk
OF making living sacrifice, combed the
countryside in a hunt for the demented
father missing with the child.
Strader, dripping wet and holding
the corpse of the child close to his
breast, was discovered after four hours
BY searching party a hundred wards
from his home. He mumbled inco-
herently and remained in such a con-
dition that 1t was impossible to get a
clear statement from him. During sub
sequent questioning by doctors and offi-
cials he repeatedly referred to "sacri-
nces' and intimated that he had been
moved by religious zeal to offer the
child as a living sacrifice.
When frst discovered he was shiv-
ering and appeared to be suffering from
exposure. His condition was such that
he was kept at his home during the
night with heavy detail of oficers
on guard.
Strader left his home about 6 O'Clock
Saturday evening with the child in
his arms, announcing his intention of
going to feed the hogs, which were In
q nearby pen. After several hours the
family became alarmed in view of his
mental state and called in neighbors.
Seaching parties were organized and
the county and Danville police notified.
The search then became widely or
ganizeo and the entire community
thrown into q state Of excitement,
which reached its climax when Strader
was discovered with his child's body.
Members of the family stated that
Strader had been in i'll health for sew
eral years and that he showed symp-
toms Of insanity last year when he was
confused and excited for some time
He apparently recovered and proposed
plans to have him committed to an
institution we're abandoned.
Strader has a wife and several chill
dren. some Of whom are adults.

NEW CHASE POLICY
ADVISED FOR BANKS
Newspaper Men Urge That
They Take Public Into
Confidence.
Bv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
HOT SPRINGS, Va. October 30
Investment bankers, attending the In
vestment Bankers Association conven-
ton here, pondered today the recon-
mendations of newspaper men that
they welcome the public into their
confidence.
Radical changes in bankers relations
with the public were urged by Phil 5.
Hanna. editor of the Chicago Journal
of Commerce and one of five financial
experts who addressed the gathering
yesterday
OF similar mind was Arthur H. Dean,
q New York lawyer, while Edison Smith,
financial editor Of the Boston Herald,
suggested that the bankers follow the
policy Of the Chase National Bank in
the disavowing of the practices of the
past and at the same time advise the
public they we're so doing"
Full availability of bankers to report
ers was urged by Norman Stabler,
financial editor of the New York Her
aid Tribune. From Royal F. Munger,
financial editor of the Chicago Daily
News, came the assertion that your
doctrine of infallibility must be dis
carded II you want public confidence" "
Bankers, he added, should welcome
newspaper criticism of their security
issues.
The bankers were told by Howard
Wood, financial editor of the Chicago
Tribune, they should get over the
idea" investors needed to be convinced
of bankers perspicacity and direct
their attention instead to 12O,000,O0O
other citizens "who. it must be ad-
mitted, have rather small opinion of
you"
