GONG, GOING, CONE!

The re - speech of National Recov-
cry Adm .nistrator Johnson concerning the
buy now campaign he plans to start
soon, should be OF especial interest to the
wise and thrifty property-owner.
The forthcoming campaign is not to
be ciossed with sporadic campaigns of a
simils' 1at..re attempted during the past
few years. This one will have the high
est backing - it will come at time when
recovery is really underway, and the pub
lie will go to the limit in cooperating with
the neads CT the government. There is
every reason to believ it will succeed. And
the inevitable result will be still sharper
acceleretion of the price level
There is, as General johnson said, a

clothes, for new plumbing and water
equipment, for house and land improve
nent. Organized and directed, this de-
mand can create the greatest buying wave
since wartime. 1t will lower the value of
the inactive dollar, by making it buy less
1t will raise the valIa of the dollar that is
spent wisely now, by increasing the value
of the improvements
This is fact, not theory. The day
of bargains for standard commodities is
going. It will be gone before we know it.
The American property owner IS being of
fered his last chance to build new home,
repair an old one, and do similar things at
extremely low prices

FAITH IN AMERICA

1t is doubtful if any country on the

Teeming millions of Asia and India live in
indescribable poverty and squaldor while

But it is their life-they have never known

face of this appalling blight our people

America and American institutions has not

SCHOOL TEACHER NOW
HEADS HIGH SCHOOL

TEXARKANA, Ark, Sept. %.
Starting his career in life as a
country school teacher, Judge c.
E. Johnson has become chief JUS
tice of the supreme court of
Arkansas.
Deciding upon law as a profess
sion early in life, Judge Johnson
studied at night and taught in the
country schools. He did not have
the advantage of law school or
even of a college education.
The knowledge he was able to
dig out for himself enabled him
to pass the state bar examination
in 1911. He hung out his shingle
at Delight. Ark, and began his
struggle to get ahead.
His rise was rapid, and now, at
45, he is one of the youngest men
ever to occupy the bench of chief
justice of Arkansas highest
court.

ENEMIES OF RECOVERY

At the present time dangerous and
subversive war" is being carried on
against the utility industry And large
part of the public knows about it.
The war is being fought with taxes
Power companies have been singled out for
one of the most unjust and unreasonable
type of taxation in INSTRUMENTATION
which increases their operating cost, ac-
companied at the same time by legislation
which makes it all but impossible to earn
money with which to pay. The new law
requiring utility investors, instead of the
power-consuming public, to pay the per-
cent electrical sales tax, is unprecedented
1t is as if ths oil companies were told that
their retail price must be reduced by the
amount of tax now included and that they
and not the purchaser, must pay the gaso-
line sales tax. That is exactly the position
of some of the utilities at present. Three
percent of Neir gross revenue is often
more than is available to pay interest to
investors-and if the government takes it,
without allowing the company to increase
rates accordingly, the investor is the loser.
Here is problem faced by all inves-
tors if this policy of taxation is extended
The Utility industry is virtually import
ant economic unit. 1t must be progressive
and prosper in order to help our communi-
ties develop, and employ men and women
at good wages. Unjust taxation refeats
this-it throws men out of work, prevents
development by making it difficult Or i'm
possible to obtain new money for expan-
sion. Those who throttle the utilities
through taxation, are the enemies of ma
tional recovery.

The statements made by John Andrews are
not true. No bill in this Congress has been
more talked of than the Frazier-Lemke Bill.
The Congressional Record is full Of favorable
comment. OF course, John Andrews, before
he came to Washington, worked for a st. Paul
paper, and he may reflect their views, but
can say to MIR. Andrews that the farmers
of Minnesota are for the Frazier-Lemke Bill
1000, and that we can not understand why
a secretary Of congressman from our state,
who is supposed to support the Frazier Bill,
is stabbing it in the back.
Mr.. Frazier and Mr.. Lemke have made
splendid showing for the FrazierLemke Bill,
and since the Farmer-Labor party and the
State Legislature of Minnesota endorsed this
bill, and since twenty state legislatures en-
dorsed it, we feel that no person who works
for the farmers best interests should fight
it. It will only be a short time before the
Frazier-Lemke Bill will have to be passed,
because the refnance of farm Indebtedness
bill we just passed. is not sufficient. We all
know it was because of the fight that Mr..
Lemke made for the Frazier Bill that made
it the most talked of bin in the United States.

Agricultural Bill the
Significant Of Century
American Farm Bureau Leader
Forecasts Return of Farm Pros
perity at Conference

Passage of the new farm bill was
the most significant thing that has
taken place in the United States
this century, according to M. S.
Winder, secretary of the American
Farm Bureau Federation. A
spokesman for the more than mill
'Qion members Of the federation, Mr..
Winder was in Minnesota this week
to speak at the annual spring dis
trict conferences Of the Minnesota
Farm Bureau Federation.
The farm bill is destined to do
the things for agriculture that
should have been done ten years
ago, when the nations business be-
gan its downward descent toward
panic conditions because agricul-
ture had lost its buying power, Mr..
Winder declared. The bill has been
favorably received not only by agri-
culture but also by those groups
that in the past had fought against
any action that would restore pros
perity to the farm.
The farm will contains impor-
tant points, the farm leader de-
clared. It provides for trade agree
ments between producers and pro-
cessors of farm commodities. From
those trade agreements will evolve
