President Wants
Investigation of
Fishv Fish Story
VANITY is HURT BY STORY
OF SON THAT HE DIDN'T
CATCH ANY FISH

That President Roosevelt turned
his back to the White House and
went to Florida on a fishing trip
after his veto had been over ridden
by Congress, was no more than
could be expected. and only showed
that his pride had been hurt.
But his vanity was seriously in
jured when he learned that his son
Elliot, had told reporters that
some fish were caught on the trip
but not by his father.
The old man is now demanding
a special committee to investigate
and secure Tetraction." In other
words, he wants to prove to the
rest of the world, that his own son
is nothing but a dirty, low-down
liar, and that he did catch fish.
Fishermen are known to be
willing to swear to anything. All
the President of the United States
has to do is to name the number
of fish and they will do the swear
ing.
And the naughty boy who lei
the cat out of the bag. ought to be
spanked by the investigating cons
mittee.

SEED LOANS ARE HOAX WHEN
FED. BANK REFUSES WAIVERS

when he tries to take it, he finds
out that only those who comply
with the Agricultural Adjustment
Act, those who cut down ON their
production can get the loan. Thru
this Euse the government gets
some more farmers to sign the
criminal contract that destroys the
food in the face Of starvation and
misery.
And when the farmer thinks he
is all ready to get the loan they
bell him that he has to get a
waiver from his bank. The i'm
poverished farmer who needs the
loan more than anybody else is
then told by the same government,
but this time through the mouth
of the Federal Land Bank: 1--WE
feel that we are not in a position
to waive our interest" And full
of irony they tell you to use local
sources to purchase seed.

The rich farmer, of course, has
no difficulty whatsoever to get the
highest seed loan. He has enough
security to apply for $1,000 or
more, he does not need waiver tC

who is caught in these rules anc
regulations.
The result is that small, impov

waiver do not get a loan. The!
are unable to put in a crop. Ana
that is exactly what the govern
ment wants.
