DIR. TUGWELL SOUNDS A WARNING
(The Farmers Union Herald)

lie L
That which stands out in our men,
DRY of all the things said by every
body at our meeting at Fargo with
Assistant Secretary of Agriculture
Tugwell, was his warning that farm
ers and farm leaders had better stand
together in support of the A.A.A.,
otherwise we might lose the Adjust
ment Act, have it repealed and the
Agricultural program scrapped.
There are two groups opposed to
our program" said DR.. Tugwell. One
group is composed of some farmers
and some farm leaders. The other
group is the one that has always op-
posed doing anything for agriculture.
DR.. Tugwell did not name either group,
but we who have had any expert
know who they are. The group which
has always been opposed to doing
anything for the farmer is the group
that has always been doing some
thing to the farmer. 1t is composed
of the professors and handlers Of
and spectators in, farm products.
To be more specific, it is the meat
packers, millers, manufacturers, ware
house men, grain, cotton and tobacco
exchanges. These interests have al
ways fought to keep their strangle-
hold on agriculture. They have OPP
posed all farm organizations and all
legislation in behalf of agriculture.
They were opposed to the McNary-
Haugen bill, the agricultural market
ing act, and they are now opposed
to the Agricultural Adjustment Act.
They would, and will oppose any
program by means of which the farm
er is helped to run his own business.
The farm leader, therefore, who is
hostile to the A.A.A., gets ready
pat on the back by the special in
terests which are hostile to the A.A.A.
program.
The special interests and the dis
senting farm leaders fought the mar
keting act and succeeded in abolish
ing the Farm Board. The special in
terests and the dissenting farm lead
ers are now fighting the Adjustment
Act. If Congress scraps the adjust
ment act and adopts another program.
it would be i'm for the same OppOs1-
ton, the same attacks and from the
same sources as the marketing act
and the adjustment act. That is, it
would be If the program proposed do
ing something to help agriculture.

SOMEBODY HURT; SQUEALS
(The Bovey Press)

Here is one more reason why the
prostituted Republican press of the
state were instructed to yell COM
munism at the Farmer-Labor party:
1.-The Farmer-LabOr administration
has forced an investigation of the
incorporation which fleeced about
10000 investors out of about $780,
100000 with some good prospects
that some of the officials of that COM
pany may soon be inside looking out"
It's radicalism to send a man to Jail
for stealing millions, and American
ism for sending a man to Jail for
stealing a loaf Of bread; that is, &C
cording to the arguments put forth
by the old Republican racketeering
gang.

ADVICE TO YOUTH

With a sentence of 80 years in the
North Carolina prison before him for
mail robbery, Isaac Costner gave this
advice which would be good for young
men to heed:
Take a job for SO a week and be
glad to get it. That's legitimate.
Pull one fast job and your name is
mud. A lot of you young fellows,
eager for adventure and full of vim
and vitality, are sometimes dazzled
by the exploits of organized GRIM
inals. But they can't compete with
the law and neither can you.

HUMAN NATURE
Hinckley, Mimi.
(COnfuSciuS)

1t Is because men are prone to be
partial towards those they love, I'M
just towards those they hate, servile
towards those above them, arrogant
towards those below them. and either
harsh or over-indulgent to those in
poverty and distress, that it is so
difficult to find any one capable of
exercising sound judgment with re-
spect to the qualities of others.
Therefore it is the part of wisdom
to withhold judgment and immerse
ourselves in our own affairs, in order
that others may attend to theirs.

(Mllie IdcS county IlmeS)
The cut in the governments hog

in Minnesota is stirring up a verit-
able hornets nest. What the outcome
ers claim that the government fig
ures are too low, which may be true
The government retaliates with the
report that large number of figures
are false. AS an example of some of
the production claims made, there

old sows, but raised $50 pigs last
year.

WHAT MAKES LIFE SWEET
National All Club News)

If we all stood alone in the battle of
life
What a dreary old world this would
be!
Life is sweet just because of the
friends we have made
And the things which in common we
share;
So We ought to live on-not because
of ourselves
But because of the people who care.
It's the giving and doing for somebody
else,
On that all ife's splendor depends;
And the joy of this world when
you've summed it all up)
May be found in the making OF
friends.

QUEER PEOPLE
madison Independent-Press)

COndemning a man because he is
not of your political faith is the
mark of a darned poor sport. If you
can not take part in politics without
getting sore at your neighbor, stay
out of politics. People who feel that
way are the same type as those who
believe that their religion is the only
road to heaven. Get it out of your
mind. This would be a poor coun-
try to live in if we had one poll
teal belief, or one religion. Reminds
us of the Quaker who told his wife
that ''All the world is queer but thee
and me, Rachel, and sometimes
think that even thou art bit queer"

Quart Flask Days
Are Over
By CHARLES A. CAVALIER

ny NAAFAANAGO 1A' NNAA'A~A~S~A~~
Before the days Of prohibit
ton, it was an event to sell a
flask which would contain more
than half a pint.
Only when people visited
North Carolina, or other such
dry territories, was it necessary
to purchase sizes up to one
quart. In fact, the larger con-
tainers came to be known as
the North Carolina" size.
During this period, however
half.pint TASKS were relegated to
mantel displays, while those
from one pint to one quart took
on such names as private resi-
dence," hotel and "roadhouse"
sizes, respectively.
We might also inadvertently
remark that prior to those days
of what might be called en-
forced drinking, it was consid-
cred the height of improperly
for a lady to purchase anything
above four gills, while during
prohibition, quite the contrary
was true.
During the past IS years we
have witnessed the rise of an in
dustry of drinking accessories
far beyond any conception of the
human mind.
There is what is known as
Tip Top" which only allows q
certain size drink to be dis
pensed. Then, there's the
Knight" or sliding sleeve cock.
tail shaker, which displays a
new recipe at every turn Of the
sleeve.

mino variety of sherry, but it
has a distinct taste and so is
usually distinguished.
Montilla, a spirituous wine
from the regions of Montilla
and Aguilar in the province of
Cordoba, is prepared from
stock of the same variety as
the Pedro Xininez but differs
from it in methods of pre-
paration. The Montilla wines
go through their first fermen-
tation in earthen instead of
wooden jars, but thereafter
they are transferred to wooden
vessels and then are prepared
much like sherry. Moriles, the
most famous of the Montilla
wines, is renowned as an ap-
petizer and for medicinal quail
tiles.
Spanish Table Wines
Among the table wines, the
type most famous in export
trade are the Rioja wines. OBJ

Graciano and Maruela vines.
These Rioja wines, of the
Bordeaux type primarily, have
enjoyed popularity for decades.
They are both red and white.
The Province of Valencia
produces the celebrated Re-
quena-Utiel wines, having an
alcohol content of 10 to IL
per cent, and possessing dis
tinct acidity. The wines of Ali
cante, especially we'll known in
Latin America, are character
lied by a high degree of alco-
holic content, running to IT
per cent. Galicia produces the
Rivera wines, which have a
low content Of 8 to 10 per cent,
but a brilliant colo.

Behind the search Of the brunette
film actress for her parent is q dra-
matte story in which she was besieged
by imposters and finally got in touch
with her father only through his
brother, Walter McKim Of Philadel-
phia.
Miss Dvorak, the wife OF Leslie
Fenton, screen actor, started the
search after a career Of quick success
in Hollywood. The actress appealed
to newspapers to help her. Stories
were published, but the father did not
see them.
Meantime, letters poured in from
many men who claimed the relation
ship, most Of the writer's signing the
name "Dvorak," which eliminated
them quickly, for the actress had con-
cealed her true name purposely.
Several days ago Walter McKim
saw the story. He forwarded q clip
ping to Miss Dvorak's father, who
wrote her at once, sending his daugh-
ter strip Of movie fllm showing her
as q child of 4. Her parents had
separated IA years ago.

MOORISH GIRLS ARE
FEATURED AT GAYETY
Diane johnson and Georgia Soth-
ern Are Stars Of Ninth
Street Burlesque.

| Changed somewhat from the tradi-
tional burlesque offering, the Gayety
Theater last night presented Moorish
Girls" starring for the second sue
cessive week Georgia Sothern, who
was held over on account Of her un-
usual reception last week.
This week, however, Georgia finds
much competition in the person OF
Diane johnson, devastating blond
enjoying her third week Of stardom.
Miss johnson has well earned her
title, "burlesque queen" Without the
appearance of Miss Sothern, who has
already guided her name in the bright
lights of Washington burlesque, Miss
johnson would have been classed far
above her cast. Dolly Hendricks was
the remaining burlesque attraction of
the evening.
The singing team Of Gale and
| Carlos offered a series OF numbers
which were received in good style,
varying somewhat from the usual
songs heard at the Gayety. Superior
as singers, they were curtain called
several times Another surprise OF
the evening was Harry Kane and
Jean Harris, team of adagio and ball
room dancers. Supported by a chorus
which could not appear too often as
background, as well as out-of-the-
ordinary drops and props, they added
to the show Robert and Doris Wade
dance team, demonstrated a number
of new dance routines, much to the
liking Of the spectators Harry Rose,
Steve Mills and Jack Montague pro-
duced the comedy. At times they
are amusing.
The unusually good chorus and the
changed attractions received a far
better reception than the usual run
Of burlesque productions. P. N. j.
