The Resettlement Administration
has a rehabilitation program today
because millions of farm people are in
danger of starving or becoming perm
anent relief charges unless they are
given a new chance to readjust their
farming through scientific planning.
In order to reestablish destitute and
low income farm families on firm
economic footing we have undertaken
to do three things: first, to see that
the farmers have adequate land on
which to farm; second, to see that
they have adequate equipment with
which to carry on farming operations;
and third, to see that they have ade-
quate technical advice in farm man.
agement.
Loans are made for the purchase of
farm supplies, for the renting of land,
for the repair of farm equipment and
buildings, and for subsistence. Repay
ment of these loans is partially assur-
ed by mortgages and liens on property
and crops. But the principal assurance
which the Resettlement Administra-
ton desires is the assurance that
these families have permanent basis
for rehabilitation. This is furnished
by the farm management plan which
the farmer agrees to follow. These
plans are carefully worked out by the
farmer with the help of the County
Rehabilitation Supervisor and the
County Agricultural Extension Agent.
The immediate aim of these farm
plans is to provide means whereby
the farmer can support his family

'Twould seem Dixieland leads in
this display of domestic affection.
The champion is Senator Smith of
South Carolina. There were all
sorts of delegates at the Demo-
cratic national convention, but he
was the only walking delegate -
walked out twice, and each time
walked right back again. He has
five relatives drawing salaries from
Uncle Sam. Even Uncle Jack Gar
ner, the sphinx of Texas, has
three.
This looks like an improvement
on the old southern system, when
kinfolks dropped in for a weekend
and stayed the rest of their lives.
Summer AnnOyances.
EVEN in sun kicked California,
~ summer is on it's last legs. This
one will 60 down in history as the
summer which produced handles,
knock-knocks; the dust storm and

qualifying as the minute-man of the

that, if there's an audience. Colonel

In the modern version of "the spirit
of 76," he's the one who's beating
so hard on the eardrum. Still, it's
a grand thing - but surprising -
to find a newspaper editor who talks
forcibly on his feet instead of writ
ing feebly on his seat.

Ireland, the brown shirts in Ger
many, the red shirts in Russia, and,
of course, the black shirts in Italy,
which seems the most practical of
all because you don't need to wash
a black shirt for months and
months.
So maybe we're too quick. The
alarmists among us are predicting
an early dictatorship here. At the
rate all the standard shares are
being snapped up, we'll lave to
think up new color in shirts, and,
unless we hurry, there may not be
any new colors to think up, and
you can't have a dictatorship with
out shirt to match - that's the
rule. Lavender hasn't been taken
yet by anybody, but lavender seems
kind of sissy, and, while, a gravy
colored shirt might suit the careless
eater, it lacks zing, don't you think?
In any event, our shirt ought to
have a good long tail to it, be-
cause, by that time, the American
taxpayer probably will have lost
his pants.

 HAVANA, Dec. 24, - Presi- dent Miguel Mariana Gomez was convicted early today by the Cuban senate on impeachment charges, by a vote of p to 12.
 The senate vote removed Com ez from the presidency, convict ing him on charges of "interfer- ing with the free functioning of legislative power".
 Gomez became the first presi dent in the history of Cuba, to be busted from office by impeach ment.
 Vice President Francisco Lar edo Bru, automatically succeeds Gomez to the presidency.
 Gomez was opposed to the su- gar tax bill, the receipts of which were intended to operate rural schools conducted by the army, which Gomez contended would lead to a military dictatorship.
