FARM BILL GETS
SHAM OPPOSITION
Militant Farmers Seek
Debts Cancellation

WASHINGTON, March 21.-Just
before the House of Representatives
adjourned for the day, it was clear
that RooSevelt's farm bill would not
come up for vote until the follow
ing Gay, when it is expected to be
passed.
The bill has aroused considerable
controversy around it since it was
first put forward by the Roosevelt
administration.
Objection to the bill, both in the
House and in the Senate, may be
summarized as follows:
l. The type of sham opposition de-
veloped by demagogic congressman
wis, under pressure from the thickly-
populated centers, point out that the
rise in prices, inevitable as a result
of the government tax on the process
sorS of farm products, would be
passed on to the consumer-to the
tune Of at least 00,000,000 year
2, Congressman and senators rep
resenting the interests of groups like
the American Cotton Shippers ASso-
citation, who have nothing to gain
from the cotton plan" aspect of the
bill which turns the swag over to the
cotton spectators.
8. Individuals like Senator Borah
who continually warns of the grow
ing farm revolt and urges effective
methods to stem it, He criticizes the
Farm Bill and offers the counter
proposal for "refinancing the farm
ers." This scheme would involve
turning over millions of dollars
through the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation or similar agencies-not
to the farmers directly-but to their
mortgages, the banks and insurance
companies.
Cancellation Is Demand.
Meanwhile, through the Farmers
Committee of Action and the United
Farmers League, militants are put
ting forward the demand for COM
plete cancellation Of all farm indebt-
edness. They point out that the
Roosevelt farm relief" bill will aid
the large-scale farmers and market
ing agencies, at the same time rails
ing the cost of living not only for
the masses in the cities but also for
the impoverished farmers.
Though the Farm Bill will un-
doubtedly raise the prices of farm
products, the increase will not bene-
fit the farmers, but will go to the
marketing agencies which now have
a stranglehold upon them.

Author of Studies

DR.. Barnhart is the author of many
papers for scientific periodicals and
organizations. One of these is "a
Study of Homicide in the U, s." One
portion Of this, entitled "a Study Of
Homicide in Birmingham, Ala, says
"One reason that the Negro rate is
higher in Birmingham than the
white rate is because many Negroes
are killed by policemen for resisting
arrest"
DR.. Barnhart has taught at Bir-
mingham- Southern College for five
years. Previously he taught at Har-
ris Teachers College, st. Louis, Mo-,
for five years.
DR.. Guy E. Snavely, president Of
the college, announced that the
course in sociology" there would be
dropped, and in spite Of the fact that
the real charges against Or. Barn
hart were well known, has tried to
hide this move under the mask Of
economy. He has already, during
his eleven years as president, dis
missed ten professors and instructors
because Of their liberal opinions, or
for similar reasons.

INTERNATIONAL FRIENDSHIPS

Sinclair Lewis novelist. believes that America
and England must draw closer and closer together
in the troublous years ahead of u.s. But he believes
that to do it they will have to throw overheard "an
this hands across the sea nonsense"
Friendship and cooperation between nations, he
believes, hndered rather than helped by excess
sentimentalism. The propaganda which the inter-
national relations societies hand out Lewis abruptly
calls "slop;" in its place he wants to see a little
healthy realism.
Such realism, he says would recognize the fact
that Americans do not like any number of things
about Englishmen, and that Englishmen do not like
an equal number OF things about Americans.
Those things being admitted, there would be
for the two nations to get together on a firm
basis
In these remarks the novelist seems to have
touched on the one great obstacle in the way of
international friendship is failure understand
the nature Of this obstacle, to recognize its
existence, that brings a note into many in
ternational adventures.
When two nations become allied in any great
cause-and generally that means an alliance in war
they start out with great chorus of cheers many
fine speeches, and a fine glow of friendliness
Then, presently, they discover that things aren't
going to be quite harmonious as they had ex-
peCIeu IIldG mas 1IS LGCIe
peculartes-and for that matter, its big ones, too
The sentimentaIty gives way to disiuusionment.
Generally an active dislike follows
There are records of American mobs having
stoned French troops during for independ-
ence. Any veteran of the A E. F. can testify that
by the time the World ended the A. E. F. and
the French were mutterng out of the corners of
their mouths at one another
Sailors from the American and British fleets
fought another with vengeful enthusiasm
whenever the occasion offered
That is the way things usually work out. Lewis
idea is to take the unpleasantness in advance and
not to expect too much It would open the way for
much sounder international friendships.

THURSDAY. MARCH ls. 1888
THE INQUIRY GOES ON

There was nothing half-hearted in the Presi-
dents suggestion that the senate committee on
banking and currency continue its investigation of
banking practices
Under outside goadng, the banking committee
of the last senate finally abandoned the pink tea
attitude previously pursued and got down to bust
Now the President not only asks that all leads
so far turned up be developed, but that the at
torney general keep in touch with the committee
and prosecute any violations that have been or may
be revealed
less courageous President having launched so
far-reachng and hopeful banking reform as Mr.
Roosevelt already has launched, might have decided
not to stir up the animals Of unrest by probing into
the past sins of the banks and bankers.
But the new President obviously is going to make
thorough job of the whole business, on the theory
that banks will be most safe if the weaknesses are
aired and corrected thoroughly and publicly, in
way ito guard against their continuance and pre-
vent their return"
The new chairman Of the committee, Senator
Duncan U. Fletcher, appears to be Of the same de-
termned mind as the Presdent-a sharp contrast
with the attitude shown for a good while by the
last chairman of this committee and it's members
He has as committee counsel, Ferdinand Pecora,
who already has performed excellent service.
Senator Fletcher after a conference with Mr..
Roosevelt announced that the inquiry would be
extended into the stock market and also into pri-
waite banking and trust companies engaged in the
security business.
Things kept secret are going to be brought to
light The haowed methods of cheating people
by the millions out of billions through market rig
ging hotation of unsafe bond issues, and general
financial manipulation are to be exposed fully
to the nation.
The new deal" IN banking seems more definitely
on the way. There must be no turning back.
The whole truth must be shown and the rem
edes must be radical enough to insure the American
people against bank failures and wholesale specu-
lative exploitation.
