AAA APPROVED

Four thousand farmers from the middlewest
marched to Washington not long ago to assure the
administration that they believed the Agricultural
Adjustment Act was fundamentally sound and
that the further amendments to the act now be-
fore Congress should be adopted.
On Monday of this week three hundred Pacific
Northwest farmers, representing the state Farm
Bureaus state Oranges Farmers Union, Pacific
Northwest Grain Growers association and other
cooperative groups, unanimously approved the
AAA program at meeting in Walla Walla, urged
passage OF the proposed amendments and sharply
censured special interests opposing the present
program.
These two acts of appreciation are Illuminating
in view of the criticism and rdcule leveled at the
program since it's inception. IF the Grange, the
Farmers Unions and other co-operatives can be
said to truly represent the farmers-and be-
lieve they then the opposition to the program
can be truthfully asserted to come from special
interests or political opportunsts.
For number of years our export markets have
fallen off while production continued at the
same or increased rates. Entirely apart from the
depression this has caused the domestic markets
to collapse. To regain balance of supply and de-
mand some program is necessary.
The present adjustment program has accomp-
l1shed this to extent and the drouth and
frosts have cruelty assisted in balancing the scales
Before complete parity between production and
consumption can be attained our export markets
must be developed-a hard task in a world filled
with trade agreements between nations unfriendly
toward us. Proposed amendments to the act which
would give the Secretary of Agriculture power to
funds derived from processing taxes for the
expansion Of domestic and foreign markets and
power to use receipts from custom duties to en-
courage exports of basic agricultural commodities
will aid in this endeavor.
The amendment specifying that benefit pay
ments for basic commodities may be paid in kind
we'll in cash is also step in the right direc
ton.
Continuation and expansion of the program, we
believe, will do great deal toward putting agri-
culture back in a solvent condition.

King OF Cattlemen's
Heaven

Gixty-four years ago Charles An
- ceny came riding into the Little
Gallatin country of southwestern Mon
tana. Born on the trail, he rode in
an improvised hammock swung at one
end of his fathers prairie schooner
His father and mother were French.
They had come all the way from the
suburbs of Paris. Their wagons were
drawn by pure-bred Shorthorn cows.
In another sling, under the wagon bed,
rode pure-bred Shorthorn calf, also
born on the trail.
Charles Anceney, the elder, died in
1900. He died after curious, and oc-
casionally spectacular series of ups
and downs fully shared by Charles
Anceney the son. He has been dead
for over thirty years, but the son
speaks of him constantly and tells with
a certain brusk resentment how his
father died.
I'm 1900. Right in his prime Right
when things were beginning to work
out for us. He went out one evening
to corral a couple of milk cows His
horse must have stepped in a hole. His
pommel caught him right in the stom-
ach. A man can get all tore up that
way. Seventy-six years old. Tough as
hickory. Good for another twenty years
anyway. He and I went through
good bit together"
The man who stands thus and
speaks, his arms folded, has come into
the kingdom his father desired. He is
almost legendary figure in that part
Of the country. Men told that you
have an appointment to see him look
at you with new respect. eff he takes
to you, all right" said one. ""He sizes
man up first CLINT If he don't like
your looks, he'll just keep smiling at
you, polite as HI and keep his mouth
shut tight" This, it turned out, was
legend pure and simple; but 1t does
show how attractively they romanta-
CHE their mysteries, there around the
snug valley city of Bozeman, Mon
tana. Other men told me how, that
very spring Anceney had jumped his
horse from bridge fifteen, some say
twenty, feet above the flood waters of
the Gallatin and brought to shore
COW that had been crowded into the
river. Still others had tales of his skill
as Judge of men. How he had taken
boy from behind the counter of a
country store, made him his herds
man. sent him east not long afterward
to bid upward of hundred thousand
dollars at a big Shorthorn sale: and
how the boy had made good.
A preacher told me: "Mr. Anceney
isn't member of our church. don't
know that he attends any church. But
we wanted to hold our Presbyterian
Sunday school picnic and barbecue up
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1935-05-23

on the Madison, on his land, and he
gave us permission. He also consented,
as a convenience to us, to supply us
with beef for the barbecue. When I
saw the sort of animal he'd butchered
and fixed up for us, wondered If
we'd ever be able to afford it. It was
so much more than we had bargained
for. I asked him what we owed him.
"He looked me clean through with
that cold gray eye of his and said:
DO you think I'd go to all that trouble
to sell a steer?'"
Well, Charles Anceney is actually a
little like all that. Harry Childs is
his business partner but he, Charles
Anceney rules that ranch-rules it
with the sharp eye and the quick hand
of man who has seen in his time a
little something of Indian insurrec-
lions, not to mention-since he won't
the benefcient later activities of the
Vigilantes. 4~
At sixty he remains closely knit,
hard and sinewy. Not such large man
but mighty hard man to shove over.
He has chin built firmly forward into
a profile that can seem for the moment
hard as rock. But his chuckle is one of
the pleasantest sounds imaginable.
With only four months schooling
in business college during the winter
of his twenty fourth year-he has
trained his own mind. He thinks fast
and his speech is direct and vivid.
He took me in a big car up a noun
tain to give me look at his place.
We got out and stood at the high bend
of the road. Bordering mountains,
dotted with cattle, stood clear and
sharp against the sky. The air as you
took it into your lungs seemed to lift
you from the ground. Down through
bright green meadows, far below us,
flashed the fast waters of the Gallatin,
hidden here and there by groves of
cottonwood and sycamore. In the mea-
dows which are irrigated, men were
cutting hay-timothy and alsike, seeded
broadcast from a horse, and making,
ages the unbelievable yield of five tons
to the acre. Even natural hay in those
irrigated bottoms of the Flying D often
comes up to three tons to the acre.
Absent-mindedly Anceney stood
there looking over his domain, point
ing out this and that and estimating
for me the extent of the ranch pro-
perties:
Lets see, now: 100000 acres decided,
around 100000 leased; about a half
million in all. Stock water on every
quarter-section of it except one. TWEEN
ty-six miles lengthways and twenty
four miles across at the widest point.
Follow the river and there's forty-two
miles of meadows Look how the mea-
dows are locked right into the range
land. I often think how much that

THE CLIMAX

The Presidents veto message on the Patman
bonus bill Wednesday morning was most en-
Tightening climax to a long and embittered battle
over whether or not the veterans Of the world war
should receive Immediately full payment of the
1915 value of their adjusted compensation certi-
fcates.
To many of us it was the first concise explana-
ton of what constitutes the adjusted compensa-
ton certificates, and to all of us it was COM
mendabe commentary on the danger Of imitation
airy measures.
AS Mr.. Roosevelt's message stated, the nation
has been generous beyond all expectations with
the veterans Of the last war. disqualification, re-
Mobilization and vocational training have aided
many; employment preferences have been given
them both in federal offices and on government
projects; and the congressional act Of 1924 which
adopted the bonus plan, or adjusted compensation
for time spent in service, generous gift from
a grateful nation which has never been equaled
here abroad at any time.
The act of 1924 called for payment of the bonus
in 1915 and that is the date when it should be
paid, we believe, rather than in 1885, at time
when the relief of the many should be placed
ahead of the relief of few

them back. Seventy five miles of that
drive was across desert without water.
"This time we got started on part

seems to have more in it than it does

We feed hay right through every win

but apart from that we operate nearer

"At the time Father got hurt in
1900 we could see daylight ahead. BY
1910, after few more little ups and
downs, was out of debt and going

Childs, my partner, to come in with me.
Harry owns the hotels the trans

goes, everything but the rattlesnakes,
in Yellowstone Park. A lot of our beef

II had been wintering some horses
for him, and he liked the way they
looked when took them back to him
in the spring.
,"'What do you feed those horses?'
he asked me. I told him: Not thing
in Gods world but grass. Come down
sometime and see.'
Sure enough, one day down he
came. I hooked a span of mules to
spring wagon and after lunch we drove
up to one of the high points.

HE runbled around about how he
didn't want any more ranches, that
he'd lost money on every ranch he'd
ever owned.

"'What do you mean-we?' he said;

He'd pointed out a 5O0O-acre piece

want to know what we ought to be
able to get it for and what an option
would cost. Pretty soon we'd arranged
that I was to buy options on about
10000 acres within the next four days.
