OWN
PAPER, THE NEWS
By Hans Rasmussen

When the sharecroppers in the
cotton belt received their allotment
checks, claims of all descriptions
were filed against them by land
lords and merchants, and very lit
tie of the money ever got to the
man who titled the soil.
The very same would have hap
pened here in the wheat belt, had
an effective protest not been made
in time. 1t was your paper, the
Producers News, that started this
protest and helped to organize the
farmers into a strong organiza-
ton. The result is that we are
now getting the allotment checks
without any strings attached to
them. But we have never seen any
protest made by any of the other
papers in the county.
The allotment checks can be used
any way you see fit. A small part
of each check should go to the
support of the paper that is put,

The NRA is being used as a
government instrument for mill
tarizing industry and building up
a tremendous war machinery in
this country. While over 16,OOO,-
600 workers are out Of jobs, which
including their dependents would
number over 50,O00,000, the gov
eminent refuses to grant unem-
ployment insurance but spends bill
lions of 6cllars to build up n
army and navy for the destruction
of mankind; preparing for i'm

The NRA has brought with it
the inflated dollar which now is
worth about 65 cents, and buys
only that much worth of material
goods, raising the prices of food
stuffs and other necessities sky
high. With the low wages and the
meagre relief now being given ii

to make ends meet.

WAR PREPARATIONS CONTINUE
FEVERISHLY In WASHINGTON
5000 Battle Planes Pro-
posed, ''Where do we Get
Soldiers" Senator Cries

WASHINGTON, D. C.-They
call it "need for an iron-clad de-
tense" when they make proposals
for 5000 new battle planes, con-
tinuing feverishly large scale
preparations for "war in the
SPRING.
While Congress considers the
present naval aircraft program
which calls for the purchase Of
1,184 planes, over five year
period. it is already planned to
ask Congress for an increase OF
the combined army and navy air
force by 5000 planes.
General D. Macarthur, army
chief of staff, explained a few
months ago, that in total airplane
strength the United States stood
second or third among the world
powers. The proposed increase
will make this country second to
none."
! The Vinson bill, which is now
also before Congress, provides for
the building of 100 new battle
ships, chiefly destroyers and sub
marines.
The most striking feature of the
General Staff's program for army
air corps enlargement, some news
papers report, is the definite de-
cision to build up a single pow
erful unit known as GHQ air force
comprising hundreds Of planes OF
all tvpes which would be prepared
for swift emergency action Of al
kinds.
Operations of the GHQ can b
in conjunction with land troops
with naval forces or at times OF
distant missions, according to gen
, eral staff plans.

The Oil Scheme

Rumors began to float that there
existed, not far under the surface
of the North Dakota farms, un-
limited quantities of oil awaiting
to be tapped. Townley, using his
clear analysis and masterly psych-
ology, began touring the state.
With him, he had supposedly re-
liable geological data. Shortly,
seepages of oil was discovered m
wells of farmers. TOwnley, know
ing the farmers for their honesty,
and feeling sure of his ability OF
deception, was soon able to con-
vince them that the road to easy
street was by the drilling of wells
for this oil. Thousands of farmers
parted with hard earned dollars for
the chance of getting a reserved
place on easy street.
To further the effectiveness of
this scheme, the notorious doodle
Bug, was introduced. This was
a mysterious character who, Town
ley told US, possessed the magical
power of being able to detect the
presence of oil, when being es-
corted over the ground, under
which oil deposits were supposed
to exist. On this authority and
