ed, It would seem to be that It
would be desirable to 60 in for q
sanely regulated production pro-
gram, especially In view Of the fact
that we win be compelled to alto
gether depend upon the domestic
market, owing to the inability Of
foreign nations to buy from us for
cash, which has forced them to
embark upon program Of self-suf-
ficiency. They all want to get into
our market, but are unwilling to
buy from US because they can buy
cheaper from other countries. We
are buying altogether too much
from other countries Of things that
we could and should produce for
ourselves. For instance, an AP
press dispatch from Argentine, dat
ed May 3. states that during the
week ending May 2, Argentine
shipped to us q million 800 thou
sand bushels of corn. The other
day a press dispatch from Europe
stated that there were 100000 bu-
shells Of rye enroute to this coun-
try. It is importations like these
that keep the domestic price down.
The dairymen Of America realize
the depressing effect Of importa-
tons on domestic prices.
It looks to me as though OUR best
move Is to concentrate upon the
domestic market.

Congressional
News Letter
BY Harold Knutson,

Finally, the MIRA has come be-
fore the Supreme Court of the Unit
ed States. It's constitutionality was
ably argued by Donald r. Rich
berg, chairman of the MIRA board
and Solicitor General Stanley Reed
for the Government, while Freder-
ick H. Wood and Joseph Heller,
both of New York, argued against
it's constitutionality on behalf Of
their client, the A. L. A. Schechter
Poultry Corporation, of New York
City. It was not possible for me to
attend the hearing, but press re-
ports indicate that 1t was most
hilarious affair. Attorney Heller
evoked gales of laughter by his
description of the operation of the
MIRA in the poultry business. When
asked by Justice McReynolds what
straight killing" meant, he looked
surprised that everybody did not
know, and he Immediately launch
ed into a description of the defini-
ton. Said he: when a customer
comes in and asks for some chick
ems, straight killing means that you
have got to put your hand into the
crate and take out whatever chick
ems come to you first" "And it was
that for which you were convict
cdr" asked Justice McReynolds
dryly. "On ten counts" returned
Heller ruefully, and filmed $1,000
and given three months in JAIL"
why, on one count" he continued,
his tone tinged with outrage, lit
was testified that a customer came
into the store and asked for eleven
chickens. Ten chickens were taken

Minnesota Pilgrims Leave Fair
Country

There Is something heroic and
also pathetic in the picture Of the
274 members of the Minnesota col
ony that has set sail from San
Francisco for Alaska. Much public
ity has been given to the group.
They hace been officially well
coined in the cities through which
they have passed and have been
received with brass bands. There is
the spice Of adventure in their
journey to Alaska but there will be
difficulties and long, dreary days
for them there just as there were
here. It is doubtful whether they
will find better conditions there
for earning living than they had
right here in Minnesota, which un-
der usual weather conditions is one
OF the most fertile spots in the
United States. They are not fleeing
from country where they have
suffered religious, or political OPP
preston as did some of our fore
fathers. They are leaving a state
which offers free wonderful educa-
tional advantages for the children
Of the poorest and most humble
parents. The position which a boy
may attain in this state depends
largely on his mental equipment
and personal initiative. Alaska, as
every other section of the United
States, probably offers the same
opportunities.
All credit to that band Of 274 pill
grims journeying into the land to
the North. May they be happy and
prosperous there, but we doubt
whether they have gone into fair
er land where they can gather
more fruits from their labor than
right here in the North Star State,
the home of the Ten Thousand
Lakes.-The Princeton Union.
