KINDNESS URGED TO
BETTER WORLD

BY Mrs. EIdridge.
I have been reading the Message
Center for several years, and the
one subject that struck me is that
of the mail carriers experience Of
wanting a drink and not getting
one. The least one could do is to
give him a cool drink.
take from my own feelings
when any one helps me or gives me
drink, that they have a heart.
Every one who wants a drink Of
water who comes to my house gets
one, and food, too, when 1 have it.
That is the trouble with this world
we do not have enough good feel
ing toward our fellow men. To
give a drink of water is a small
task for any one. A kindness goes
long way, at least that is my view
Of life. If any one is by my door
and wants drink he gets it. Why
can't every one be that way? 1t
would make a better world if every
one would cooperate and be kind
and generous whenever they could.
Here is for a better and a more
generous country than we have.

Milk Distribution Setup AssaiZed

Office in indianapolis and told
that if they were going to sell
milk in the Indianapolis area,
they would have to sign two con-
tracts-one to take their supply
of milk, aside from their own pro-
duction, from the council or the
pool at prices less than so per
cent of what they were proposing
to pay, and, secondly, sign con-
tract with the Indianapolis dis
tributors to sell milk at the prices
and upon the classifications and
standards agreed upon by said
distributors association.
The Greenwood Dairy Farms,
Inc, told these men at the law
yers office that it had no desire
to buy the farmers milk at 5 to g
cents a gallon, that it had no de-
sire to sell its milk in the 1ndl-
annapolis area at from 40 to %
cents a gallon; that it felt this
was a free country, and that 1t
had a right to pursue its own
methods within the limits and re-
strictions of the laws Of the state
of Indiana.
A group of men representing
the producers organizations went
to Washington, with what series
of representations we are unable
to imagine, and induced the sec
rotary of agriculture to attempt
to set up in this area a milk
administrator, whose duty it
would be to organize, regulate,
penalize and, last but not least,
tax the industry to pay the eX-
penSes and salaries Of a bunch OF
political interlopers, who knew lit
tie or nothing about the milk
business.
A Mr.. Wallace was sent out
here, as a special investigator,
who frankly admitted he knew
nothing about milk. But we
milk producing farmers of Indiana
now are being called upon by the
secretary of agriculture to pay the
expense and compensation OF such
a fellow. We just can't take it!
The present administration has
labeled itself the New Deal and
has claimed the support of the
public on the ground that it was
functioning in the interest Of the
forgotten man, and we are writing
this letter to let the public know
in a concrete case, the method,
the manner, and the object of its
administration Of the milk bust
ness in indianapolis.

UPHOLDS BIBLE
AS AUTHENTIC

BY F. w.
In answer to Frank Cummings:
AS a young person of today, 1
have tried to give this letter, writ
ten, I presume by a man Of normal
mind, thought and consideration.
But looking around me and delving
into the thoughts of unbelievers,
and those who have carried heavy
burdens through these unsettled,
troublesome times, I find there are
very few persons of even moderate
circumstances who have fallen to
such low estate as to believe that
man is all, and God is nothing.
Evidently this man never has
visited a public library, and doesn't
know that history tells of Jesus
Christ living upon the earth. He
possibly doesn't realize that the BIZ
bic is the best seller, and most-read
book of all the ages.
He doesn't know that the Bible

ID. Barker.
For several days we have no.
ticed articles in papers with ref
ence to the Greenwood Dairy
Farms, Inc, and wherein it has
been proposed by the department.
of agriculture in Washington to
revoke the license of said COM
pany to distribute milk in the
Indianapolis area.
AS producers and sellers of milk
for some twelve or fifteen years in
the region about Greenwood, we
think we are in position to give
some of the concrete facts which
have developed into the present
controversy.
Two years ago the farmers of the
so-called indianapolis milk shed
were organized into two producers
groups, one known rs the pool,
and the other as the indianapolis
Dairy Producers Council.
These organizations pledged
they would obtain for them an
increased price for their milk, and
identical standards and certified
tests of its quality.
However, the farmers price
for milk fell to 5 and cents a
gallon, while the distributors in
Indianapolis we're selling the same
milk for from 40 to so cents a
gallon.
The persons interested in
Greenwood Dairy Farms, Inc,
felt they had been imposed upon
by being forced into contracts
which gave them a price of only
to 6 cents a gallon for their milk,
which price was so low as to entail
a serious loss, they decided to ouild
a creamery on a corner of their
farm in Greenwood, to pasteurize
their own milk and to sell it in
competition with the distributors
in indianapolis.
The first announcement of the
Greenwood Dairy Farms, Inc, to
the producing farmers of the
Greenwood neighborhood was
that it would pay II cents a gal
Ion for 4 per cent milk, and that
it could afford to sell its product
in the indianapolis area to the
consuming public at price from
l to 2 cents a quart under the
prices charged by the distributors
in the Indianapolis area.
AS soon as this enterprise was
under way, representative Of the
Greenwood Dairy Farms, Inc,
was called to a certain lawyers

Pippin's voice burned through
the purple dark. The dark came
in waves and pressed about
them. Above it, in q starry
sky, the mountains loomed IT,
tanic, imperturbable with a still
majestic calm. She felt Shriveled
and her heart hot. She thought,
bitter:
"Why do I say these angry

Now forever he'll see me hurled

And Jon thought, stunned:
Does she know what she's
saying? Great God, she can't

When Pippin sat quiet q long
time, with none Of her usual
flash, Jon flung himself into
the cockpit. He leaned forward
and said in q wretched way:
"You think I want to hurt

and haggard. Pippin searched

After a long period Of quiescence,
during which he has been study
ing the New Deal" at close range,
Senator william E. Borah has
reached the conclusion that he
doesn't like it.
The Idaho Lone Wolf, who has
worried many administrations, Is
on the war path against the NRA
and the AAA particularly.
Early this week Senator Borah
assa.led the NRA as fostering
monopoly and as driving the small
business man to the wall by per-
t1itting monopoliStic practices.
He demanded the restoration Of
the antitrust laws and their
vigorous enforcement.
Attacks AAA
Today he came out with q
Slashing attack on the AAA, which
he said was tackling the agrt-
cultural problem from the wrong
end 1t is not over-production,
he contended, which Is at the
root of the trouble, but under con-
sumption and lack Of q proper
method Of distribution.
The present policy Of the AAA
IN withdrawing land from pro-
dllction Of corn, cotton ana
wheat land, involves the loss Of
some 100000 productive acres,
or approximately 121z per cent
0t the nations total producing
