Plans to create an active
poets council in each State
branch of the National Woman's
Party will be discussed at the
annual executive meeting of the
Poets Council Tuesday night,
September 18, in the headquar-
ters of the party. IA B st. N. E.
Myrtle Rejane Patterson, ma
tional chairman of the council,
is making extensive plans to con-
Struct a large national organiza-
tion of poets, as strong as the
other separate committees and
councils Of the Woman's Party.
It will be all in the interest
of poetry, Miss Patterson says,
for she does not believe many
women are as concerned in
poetry as they should be. Nor
does she believe that women
have recognition and rights
equal to those of men in all
branches Of the literary field.
And through the Woman's
Party, she hopes that absolute
equality in the literary field will
be ablished, and that Wash
ington will become the center Of
the poetical world.
AS soon as plans for the field
organization are completed, Miss
Patterson hopes to visit several
of the nearby State branches to
begin formation of these poetry
groups or to foster the spirit Of
activity in those that already
are in existence.
Miss Patterson's chief inter-
est during her spare time is in
politics and poetry. She is now
compiling a book of philoSoph-
ical poems, which she hopes will
be published in the next few
months.
A young woman, she has been
an active member of the Ma
tional Woman's Party for sew.
eral years and did much of the
major work connected with the
Equal Rights in Nationality
Bill which was passed last year.
For this work her reward was
the pen which President Roose.
velt used in signing the bill.
Her regular occupation is head
of the division of mails and gen.
eral correspondence of the Fed
eral Surplus Relief Corporation.
Other national officers of the
Poets Council are the first vice
chairman, Mrs. H. j. Klossner,
formerly of Minnesota, but now
a resident of Washington; Sec
ond vice chairman, Mrs. Gladys
EStelle Magill, of California;
third vice chairman, Miss Anna

Meetings of the local poetry
group have been quite a success
during the past year or two.

FARM COOPERATIVES

We have always felt if our
local farmers would stick to-
gether and establish their
own cooperative m a + k e t s,
their lot would be easier and
their labors would not be for
naught. Farm cooperatives
are tried with success in other
sections, why not the Delmar-
va Peninsula. We agree with
the Denton (Md.) Journal
which gives this picture of
the situation. 1t says:
''The principal reason for
the existence of the farm CO.
operatives is to benefit their
members by stabilizing mar
kets and raising prices to lev
els where producers are able
to make a reasonable profit.
At the same time, the public
at large obtains just about as
many benefits from successful
agricultural cooperation as do
the farmers themselves.
''No one gains when agri-
culture is proftless: The farm
is the greatest single market
in normal periods for the
products of our factories-the
great bulk Of urban industrial
workers can trace their en-
ployment directly or Indirect
" to the farm consumer.
"A constant supply Of agri-
cultural goods is essential to
our national life-and when
markets are disorganized, and
prices are in the basement,
the farmer is unable to eff
ficiently keep the great ma
chinery Of production and dis
tribution going.
''The thinking public is sol
idly behind the cooperative
movement, and a wide mea-
sure of the success it has
achieved in the face Of great
obstacles, may be attributed
to that. Urban and rural
groups have the same objec-
tives, and they must pull to-
gether for the common vel
fare"

once asked, during a friendly
discussion of relative value, to
name three things which he
would consider most essential
to his welfare should he be
marooned on an uninhabited
island. His answer was most
significant when he said:
First, l would most desire
my family. Second my home
town newspaper. Third, my

The fact that his home
town newspaper came second
in Importance to his family
speaks volumes for that insti-
tuition and it is not altogether
strange that person with
Roosevelt's perception Of val
ues should make this choice.

says:
"The community newspa-
per is essentially a serial his
tory and biography, combined.
Of the people and events in the
territory which it serves.
Through its succeeding vol
umes the community's pro
gress - OF retrogression - is
unconsciously portrayed. 1t
makes its subscribers prob
lens its own problem; a SYM
pathetic understanding exists
between publisher and sub
scriber which is entirely abb
sent in urban publications.
"The community newspap-
er occupies traditional place
in the existence Of its home

the school and the church. 1t
is an integral part Of the real
ization Of pioneering effort to
constructive living, the
mouth-piece Of an enterpris-

by the familiarity with which
it treats its family Of readers
it is read and passed on to

prietorship; a feeling which

Manufacturers Plan Boycott of

Tax Law.

By the Associated Press.
PORTLAND, Me, July IA virtual
bovcott of Maine as a market 1or
cosmetics was predicted by dealers
last night as the States new law on
toilet preparations became effective.
Intending to protect consumers ana
at the same time produce revenue, the
last Legislature passed a law proVld-
ing that manufacturers OF prepara-
tions for the hair, face and hands
must register at cost OF 81 each
article offered for sale.
Manufacturers, alarmed by the leg
islation which they fear may ind
favor in other States as well, have
notified merchants of their intention
to drop the Maine market from their
merchandising list. Maine is the plo-
neer in sucn cosmetic legislation.
Unless manufacturers change their
minds, not a box. bottle, jar or TUBE
of powder, perfume, cream or ONT
