DINNER

WASHINGTON. - An audi
ence of $50 persons, including a
large number Of nationally prom
inent figures, gathered recently at
the first annual dinner of the
American Commonwealth Fedora
ton, head leaders in the New Par
tv movement give their solutions
for the economic problems facing
America today.
Professor Henry Pratt Fairchild,
of New York. University, was the
POSTMASTER. Speakers were Repre-
sentative Thomas A. Amlie and
Alfred Bingham, chairman and
secretary respectively of the AM
erican Commonwealth Federation,
Senator Elmer Benson of Mime
sofa and Representative Ernest
Lundeen.
Congressman Amlie emphasiz-
ed the hopelessness of any i'm
provement in the lot of the unem-
ployed under the profit system,
and likened them to the horses
which had been displaced by trac-
tors during the decade from 1920
to 1890. The only hope for these
people he pointed out, was a ra-
tional system of production and
distribution based on their needs.
The coming American boom"-
which is alread reflected in the
activities of the stock market
will leave 10 million permanently
unemployed, he said. He made q
plea for a constitutional amend
ment to permit federal regulation
of industrial and agricultural pro
duction and distribution, govern
ment ownership of industry, and g
capital levy. Mr.. Bingham empha-
sized the need for new party
movement to win the support o+
the American people for a scien.

INSURANCE COMPANY
PLEASED WITH CALLAHAN

The Union Central was very
pleased with the Galatians; for
thev were making money too, lots
of it, and their security was get
ting better every day. The Union
Central had other homesteads ad-
Joining Callahan's which they
wanted the Galatians to farm and
which it now wanted to sell him,
he now having more property Tor
security. So it proposed to him
that he buy also the Beardslee
and Young homesteads as well.
There were a number of boys and
girls in the Callahan family. Hur-
shel and his wife wanted land for
them all as they all had worked
we'll. And it looked as if the un-
dertaking was practical now. So
the Galatians bought the other
homesteads, adding a section more
to their farm unit of a section
and half, making two sections
and a half, or 1852 acres, more or
less.
The old crop payment contract
was surrendered to the Union
Central, and a new contract invol-
wing the lands in the first pur-
chase and the second into one
contract, for which Callahan
agreed to pay $45,OOO more to
complete the payment for all the
lands. The new contract was sign
ed October 9, 1926. Callahan was
to pay $2,25O cash on the first
of January, 1927, and then S1,35O
per year for five years, and then
25 annual amortized payments,
over a period of 25 years, in the
sum of S2,816.28 per year. This,
with the prepayment clause and
! the discounts, rlooked like "duck
soup" for the Galatians. And in
view of the payments they had
been making to the mortgage
company, if returns continued, it
was.
JUST DO
! SOME FIGURING
Taking your pencil and doing
some figuring, you will calculate
what sort of deal the Union Cen
tral Life had made. $2,25O added
to S6.750, the first five payments
amounts to just $4,000 which de-
Quoted from the $45,0O0 the con-
tract price of the farm, left a bal
ance of $4,000, to be paid in the
25 annual payments of S2,816.28
Multiply $2.816.28 by 25, and you
have S7O,417. to which add the
$4,000 and the total returns from
the farm to the Union Contra
4 amounts to $79417, if paid az
provided by the contract. O1
course the prepavment clause il
the contract allowed the saving o-
much of this price in discounts
and Callahan figured that with thC
results he had been securing, thu.

UNION CENTRAL
AND IT'S FARMS

In the deflation of 1920-21,
manv farmers, homesteaders, in
the Redstone area, went broke, the
same as thousands did, in every
farming community in the United
States. They were the "no goods"
the bankers and promoters said:
"the school teachers. tailors, jewel
ers and deep-sea divers. who had
rushed in to take big half section
homesteads, when the territory
was opened for entry. They were
not farmers and did not know
how to farm, were lazy. careless,
drank, or were possessed of some
other fatal fault, and the sooner
they were out of the country and
real farmers, farmers who knew
how to farm, workers, took their
places the better for the farms,
the business men, and the country
in general"
Anyway these homesteaders
were unable to pay the interest On
the debts they had contracted in
the Improvement and development
of their homesteads. The crops
had been poor because of drouth
or rust or other troubles They
could not paw their taxes. They
had no seed grain, no credit, and
so could not carry on. MANY aban-
doned their homesteads and left
other were foreclosed and evicted

grain alone and only work part OF
the year. The Galatians raised
chickens and turkeys and made
money out of them. The Galatians
took care of their machinery and
used it more days in the year
than their neighbors; and they
knew how to handle and repair
machinery. They worked their
fields cheap but perfectly, and
when the land should be worked,
And when the fall work was done
the Galatians used the trucks in
hauling fruit and vegetables from
the west. They were always busy
turning an honest dollar. They did
not set all their eggs in one nest
and so on, and on.

ALWAYS PAID
THEIR DEBTS

The Galatians paid their debts,
their interest and taxes, promptly,
when due. They were ideal bank
patrons and always had credit at
the store and with the bank. When
they needed money they could al
ways get it, because bankers are
always willing to go the full way
with such men. They were ideal
risks and the bankers ideal Of
real farmers.
And best of all the Callahans
had strength, and vigor and in
durance. Not only were the boys
robust, hut so were the girls, and
not the least was the mother. The
mother did not waste any time in
social affairs or clubs, nor did the
girls or boys. Early and late,
mother was on the job, cooking,
washing; patching, housekeeping,
looking after the milk and butter.
tending to the poultry, watching
the garden, keeping a vigilant eye
on everything. and especially the
health and welfare of the sons
and daughters. She never tired il
seems. In fact it is related that
she baked every day, and mixed
over four thousand pounds of flour
into bread each year.

years. From the above old home
steaders and neighbors, the Union
Central collected much, both prln-
ciple and interest, and they now
had the farms themselves, too.

PEACHES til the troops got here-pro-
vided they show up before moon rise
tomorrow night"
Felton's frantic eagerness was path
etic-he caught Ken's wrist and peer
ed into his face.
"Man, man! Do you realize what
yoo're sayin'?"
Don't knock over the Coffee" the
frOntiersman warned, cor get yoOr
hopes too high. My idee may not
work-most likely won't. First
want to know few things about the
ford over San Lorenzo. AS remem-
Der, the right of way runs around the
right side O. an Lorenzo mountain and
it's pretty steep above the track?"
Correct"
$50 there amt no crossin' the river
except by the ford below the bridge? ?"
That's right" FELTON, nodded vigor-
ously and his expression was that of
drowning man clutching at straw,
lit lies about fifty yards downstream.
We've got some guards there now,
since the Injuns most likely will cross
there to attack Novedad- fact, !
figured they've got to-"
"Yep, there amt no other crossin'
for forty mile" Ken's hands absently
rubbed the short red bristles on his
chin, making little rasping noise that
was clearly audible over the hiss of
the coffee pot. "Well, do you want to
use my idee? 1t calls for plenty O.
nerve and heap O. luck; anyhow,
you're no worse off if you use it than
if you don't"
well try anything" FELTON, declar-
ed promptly. whats your idea?"
"First thing" the frontiersman
leaned closer and lowered his voice,
"order them guards away from the
ford tonight"
1--WE can't do that-the first thing
the PEACHES will do is to burn that
bridge and then the troops couldn't
get to us if they did show up-we'd
be altogether cut off,"
Ken turned the rabbit again and
shrugged. 80. K.-suit yourself"
CHANGING sidewise at the railroad man
he guessed that suspicion and conf
dence were struggling for mastery in
his brain. Very likely FELTON, was
wondering whether this "idea" might
not be some plot, some revenge on the
company which had discharged him so
abruptly and so ufairly.

Another about face. So she loved
Ted after all. She had ridden out to
warn him, in simple compassion for a
doomed man. He understood her now
and hated himself for wanting her
more than ever. That hasty farewell
kiss still burned his lips like phos-
phorous. Poor girl, little did she
dream how far beyond her control
events were growing.
"When did you say the soldiers
were due?"
Didn't saya, but the last telegram
said they might show up tomorrow
night any time after sundown-" Eel
ton spat viciously. "We'll most like
ly have our throats cut by then"
Ken stirred the coffee pot, which,
nesting among the Goals, now COM
menced to give off a pleasing aroma.
"Mr. FELTON,, 1 sure hate to give you
any more bad news" he stated grave
ly, "but it's sure fact that tomorrow
night will be heap too late. Judgin'
by what seen today them Injuns are
all set, and soon as Mescalero Ted
gives the high sign they'll jump your
outfit like a duck on June bug; and
them that dies first will be the lucky
cnes."

TIL older mans head sank between his
hands and he drew deep shuddering
breath. eff there was only some way
of our standing off the PEACHES It'll
the troops get here. I can't evacuate
the camp, because then the property
would be ruined-and there amt posi-
tive proof yet that the PEACHES mean
to attack"
They'll attack, don't worry" the
frontiersman promised with grim en-
phasis.
"Do you see any way out?"
Ken, very gaunt and bronzed by the
fire-light, countered with another ques
ton. "How many fightin' men can
you muster?"
Seventy odd with rifles; some have
repeating carbines, but most of them
tote old single shot Springfields-
stuff left over from the war;"
A cold rivulet commenced to trickle
along Ken's spine when he visualized
such a pitiful handful attempting to
stand off the massed hordes of Jicar-
illas and Mescarelos. There were in
the field at least seven or eight hun
dred Of the red devils, and the worst
! Of it was many Of them had perfectly
honest grudges against the whites.
you'll have, anyhow, three or four
hundred braves to stand off," he said,
''and you've got about seven hundred
men, women and children to protect. "
Don't remind me-" the construction
chief groaned. IF the NOVEL; girl
can't get Ted to keep his red butchers
off the war path another forty-eight
hours"
"She can't" grunted the frontiers
man turning rabbit which, impaled
upon a sassafras stick, was sizzling as
it Drowned over the Goals. "Then
PEACHES won't stop short of a real
massacre know 'em!"
eff only somethin' could be DONE
"Mebbe somethin' could" Ken sug-
gested slowly. I been thinkin'-but's
