THE CORN HUSKERS

THE national corn-husking contest in Fountain
- County Friday centers attention on Indiana

record for yield per is the pride Of the Pankop
family Of DeKalb County. And when it comes to
husking, Indianians can refer to eleven national
championships in fifteen contests

McNutt mentioned that the average price is more
than 90 cents bushe against price Of less than
IS cents in 1882. That clear expression Of the

While Indiana has been highly ;ndustriaized, in
steel. motors. implements and other manufactures,
its prosperity remains rooted in the soil. Without
its substantial farming communities it has no per-
manent security.
During the depression, Eastern industrial states
made efforts to revive farming, impressed by the
plight of population dependent upon factories
In Indiana the balance between agriculture and
manufacturing is wholesome The week of the state
and national -husking contests is good time
to tkink Of that.

THE FOUR BILLION DOLLARS

TN preparing its budget for next year. the Roose-
l. welt Administration might well seek reasons for
the apparent transformation of the
lar work relief fund from political asset to poiti-
cal liability.
There were only a few feeble dissentS when the
President announced his current spending program
as a supreme effort to provide sefrespecting jobs
for the millions OF employabes then relief rolls
jobs on projects that would add to the permanent
wealth OF the nation and make it easier for future
generations TO pay the debts passed on to them.
And there still few dissents to spending for
projects of the caliber Of Boulder Dam and the
Tennessee Valley improvements. Even to projects
like the Grand Coulee Dam and the Passamaquoddy
tide Harvesting there is little objection. Although
opponents assert that there is market for the
electric power to be generated at these sites when the
projects completed the people generally not
worried. They know that in these Improvements they
will have something to show for the money spent,
and are willing to gamble that new markets for
cheap power can be developed.
Likewise. there is stil general approval of ex-
penditures on the CCC organization for it not only

corners but 1t is planting trees reducing forest
fire losses, checking erosion retaining submargnal

national wealth. They conserve and build for the
future the resources Of lumber and land and water
Even spending hundreds Of millions lavishly for
new highways is not generally criticized Perhaps
it is not criticized much it should be- for many
of the highways are not needed, and the cost
of maintaining them will be perpetual burden But
there is so much else to criticze-so many other pro-
jects less valuable.
We refer to such projects repairing sidewalks,
turning over pavement bricks. painting municipal
buildings undertakings into which the Federal gov
eminent never should have ventured, which add not
to the national wealth, which anticipate and substi-
tute for future and more orderly spending by the
municipalities and local Units that have unloaded
their responsibility on Uncle Sam. This waste and
inefhciency perhaps inevitable. 1t probably is
humanity impossible to provide useful employment for
three and one-haH million persons, most of whom
unframed, and many of whom are unequipped
for any kind of work And certainly it has been
demonstrated that it is impossible for the govern
ment, without long and careful advance planning to
develop an organization capable of udicously spend
ing as much as four billion dollars in one year.
But We did not plan for this year. And apparently
we have not planned for next

being nistreated. If MuSsolini
were to gain Ethiopia he would
proceed to dam up the Blue Nile
to provide irrigation for the poor
lands of Ethiopia. which would
mean less Blue Nile drainage
through Egypt, British colony. To
keep a few Egyptian farmers more
prosperous, the British would keep
ten million Philippians in virtual
savagery.
This question of mistreated
Ethiopians should remind the Eng
lish reader of that time when
England sent 100000 troops into
South Africa to subdue the Dutch
Beers, a much superior people in
heritage and achievement to the
Ethiopisns.
Beers we're slaughtered whole
sale so that England might bring
enlightenment to them (who al
ready were perhaps more enlight-
ened than the British, while Eng
land won the vastly rich gold and
diamond mines Of the Transvaal.
Of course, this strange coincidence
of winning the gold and diamond
deposits had no relation to the
Boer massacre, which, as all true
Britishers firmly believe, was per-
petrated solely to bring the great
Anglican civilization to South
Africa.
So now, when one sees lun1py
British statesman shedding croc-
odile tears over this sad, sad
plight of the Ethiopians, at the
heartless mercy of the big, bad
Italian wolves, 1t sort of makes
one sick.
I wonder could the United King
dom use Ethiopia?

SMELLS POWDER OVER
THE PACIFIC

By NJ. r. Kuehn. Richmond
While phoney war over Ethiopia
is distracting Uncle Sans attention,
he's about to be taken for ride
in the Pacific.
Under the pretext of opening up
new air routes to the Orient. some
rugged individualiSt is letting the
unSuspecting Uncle in for q big
chunk of moral esponsibility. y
Does our United States Navy have to
go 2400 miles to sea in order to cut
figure 8? Is Honolulu really i'm
portant as an aviation base, or is
it merely an excuse for pouring
Uncle Sans billions into harbor
to protect the mainland 2400 miles
away?
And incidentally, which main
land? There are two of them! One,
near Hollywood The other, near
Hongkong! It's the Hongkong of it
all that the PAA (Pan American
Airlines) seems to be interested in.
O. K. for the PAA and it's rugged
individualism. But, hey there, Uncle,
why all this military fuss over an
airline projected by the big House of
Morgan? o. K. on the success of the
House of Morgan, Uncle, but why
use your Navy, and your Army, and
your air fleet to involve this gen.
Grafton and the next one is a Brit
lsh-Japanese trade war? I'm agin
it, Uncle; I'm agin it, an I'm tellin'
you so!
The deep, Under-cover strategy to
get the United States into some sort
of international league is breaking
out on all fronts and Fourth-of-
July effects are plainly visible on
Halle Selassie rs stationery as it ar
rives in the United States. Maybe
Uncle Sam will recall the dark days
of 1776 and see Haile's side of it
too! Halle and his barefoot boys
have to walk over hot mustard these
days and maybe Uncle not only will
show world pity, but also will prac-
tice it. Moreover, Congress and
perhaps Franklin D. Roosevelt don t
have all the dope necessary to be
un-neutral. If they knew what
Halle Selassie knows, they might be-
come interested in sanctions" Ye
Gods! Sanctions! Sounds like
holy word.
Just as the American public is
unaware that Great Britain and
Italy made a secret treaty in 1925
to rape Ethiopia, so the same Amer
lean public doesn't yet appear
alarmed over what is going on in
the Pacific. The American masses
do noe know, or appear not to know,
that the phoney war in Ethiopia is
between Italy and Great Britain.
Just as the invasion of the Orient
is Systematically being observed by

A WONIAN'S VIEWPOINT
- By Mrs. Walter Ferguson

DEOPLE ask the most embarrassing questions For
example, there's the woman who demands to
know whether I've ever spanked my children.
Well she's got there. But in spite of the fact
that have spanked my children still don't believe
in spanking.
All punishment is useless in training family
since every individual thrves best in an atmosphere
of approval and love- 1t is resorted to by growr-ps
because it's the easiest way out of an unpleasant
situation.
You may contend, also, that it can make very
little difference what woman believes if she doesn't
live up to her convictions. But that is harsh YER
dict. since mothers like all mortals, cursed with
faults. Only the professors, confronted with
the necessity of practicing what they preach, can
point with pride to perfect discipline.
Every theory on whipping leaves me cold. When
the parents OF John and Mary point them out as
Exhibits and B. graduates from the School of Civil
lied Spankngs, remain unconverted. think John
and Mary have turned out well in spite of whppings
and not because of them.
AS usual thing, little boys grow naughtier and
nauehtier. the more they punished, and We know
for certainty that men sent to prison grow more.
rather than less. ntractable after the experience
Following third or fourth sentence they may be
wholly anti-social
Perhaps it is not the spanking. but the spirit in
which it is administered that makes for good or evil
results. When come to believe that little boys are
never helped to be good by spankings, perhaps we
shall also that adults can not be saved except
through announcement and kindxess.

A TIMELY WARNING

MARTIN L. LANG, commissioner of weights and
1VA measures, did we'll to issue warning against
short weights in coal.
Such warning is supertluouS where reputable
dealers are involved But there are always few
sellers who try to take advantage of the poor who
buy coal in small quantities.
The law governing the handling and sale of coal
is plain. Even a quantity as small a bushel must
be sold by honest weight.
1t is incredible that men should be so dishonest
with the needy as to deprive them of even ounce
of their purchases. But of the kind exist and
we hope the commissioner will prosecute them to
the limit.

City Sunset

BY POLLY LOIS NORTON
I must seek the sky,
Find the amber hem Of Gods pure
robe;
Bit of gray,
Bit of blue,
One lone star
Is not the sky
Sky is costly bowl of robin-egg
blue;
Pan of sea-changed water, sun
careSsed;
Basket of gray chiffon, wrung
close for drying;
Hand-painted dome where tinsel
stars are cached.
I must seek the sky
Far and wide there spreads the glow
of sunsets end;
City streets stretch far
Yes, I must seek a clearing

British honor" and British
Justice" have nothing to do with
the British stand on the Italo-
Ethiopian war, despite what a
pro-British reader writing in the
Forum recently would like to be-
lieve. Any one who expresses so
naive an opinion either should
take course in international re-
lations or hire some one to do a
little clear thinking for him.
The American attitude has been
to review both sides of the present
problem impartially and obiec-
lively, and from the evidence to
make up it's mind fairly. Malice
or an emotional Interpretation
should have no place in the typi-
cally intelligent and detached
American slant on international
affairs.
The radio gave us Halle Sc
lassies side and expected to follow
the Adds Ababa speech with one
from II Duce. The Italian speech
was to be relayed by short wave
through an English station, the
only possible arrangement. And,
as might be expected, the British
backed out at the last moment.
France and America are the
only major powers really inter-
ested in peace. 1t seems that the
British, however, wish to embroil
the world in war to protect their
interests. Your English reader sug-
gests that England wants only to
protect Ethiopia, a sister League
nation, but he failed to mention
that Italy, as a sister League
nation, also might need help.
The British are not interested in
the fact that the Ethiopians are

REPUBLICANS WON'T LIKE
THIS PROPOSAL

By H. L. S.
Since the question Of a balanced
Federal budget shall be one of the
issues of 1886, the Administration
could start reduction of expendi-
lures by eliminating Federal aid to
all Republicans, either by farm
subsidies, relief doles, or any of the
other multifarious avenues of credit
propping.
If the Democrats would reduce
expenditures to the level of income
by taxation, part of the deficit
should be overcome by a capital
tax" levy. This could balance the
budget many times over.
Why not stop, at once, the ex-
traordinary expenditures that have
been the source of the increase of
business, and see what happens to
business? Let's see if there is real
life in the old critter.
