reason that none Of these occu.
pationS can survive without the
survival of the others.
The people who talk about
these class distinctions are the
very ones who are encouraging
class antagonism. For they tell
one story in the East and an.
other story in the West; one
story in the city and another
story on the farm. That is not
my way and never will be my
way.
We are coming through a great
national crisis with flying colors.
We have not lost our self respect.
We have not changed our form
of government. We have a net
national debt which though
greater in dollars is actually less
in proportion to the income of
the nation and in proportion to
the wealth of the nation than
the national debt was on March
4, 1888.
Keep Out of War
From the point of view Of ma
tional income and national
wealth, we are better able to
bear our debt now than we were
then. And, within a year or two,
with income increasing and eX-
penditures declining, we shall be
able to blance the budget and
start paying down on the debt.
There is one final form of Sc
curity on which I have not yet
touched. In addition to security
at home, we have sought for Sc
curity from war with other ma
tions. We have not been content
merely to talk about peace. We
have done something about it.

rugged individualism, the economic

Don't you and your wife and
your children look forward to a
safer, better future today than
you did three and half short
years ago?
1 have used farming as an illus
tlation of greater security because
Kansas is a great farming State.
You know, however, that the
mining areas and the livestock
areas and the industrial areas of
the country are likewise receiving
their share of a greater security.
Every part of the nation shares it
together.
Last April in New York I dared
to talk farming to a New York
city audience. I told them that
one of the best things that had
come out of these three years
was the realization by city dwell
ers that they could not be pros
porous until the farmer was also
prosperous. In the same way I
have dared to talk to people in
great agriculture States about the
needs of the industrial workers in
the big cities, and how closely
their welfare is tied up with the
lot of the farmer.
Denies "ClaSs" Warfare
People who are spreading the
gospel Of fear, talk about setting
one class against another class.
They have intimated that farmers
belong to one class and indus
trial workers to another class,
and business to another class. I
deny this. They all belong to the
same class for the very simple

We are trying to break down the
economic barriers, to soften the
economic rivalries, to end the
economic strife between nations;
for these have been the causes
and forerunners of war. We
have taken the lead among the
nations of the world in restoring
economic peace which is SO es-

1t is expressly a cold tablet and
not a "cure-all''. 1t is internal
treatment which a cold requires.
It does four important things.
First, it opens the bowels. Sec
ond, it checks the infection in the
system. Third, it relieves the head
ache and fever. Fourth, it tones the
system and helps fortify against
further attack.

A cold ordinarily goes through
three stages:
The Dry Stage, the first "a
hours; the Watery Secretion Stage,
from to 3 days; and the Mucous
Secretion Stage.
A cold is twice as easily stopped
in the first as in the second or
third stages. In fact, to let a cold
run beyond the first stage is in
Viting trouble.

PLACE IN BANKING
SEEN FOR WOMEN
Miss Susan B. Sturgis Of
Boston Discusses Future
at Convention.
Dy the Associated Press.

SAN FRANCISCO, September 1s-
A woman bank employe nowadays need
no longer be merely the bankers sec
retary-she can be the banker-lead-
ers of the Nations 2,l00 bank women
asserted today.
A limitless future for them was fore
seen by Miss Susan B. Sturgis, assistant
branch manager Of the First National
Bank Of Boston. She Is president of
the Association Of Bank Women, open
ing a two-day convention today.
1T is an odd thing" she told inter-
viewers, but the question confronting
woman bankers today Is not how far
they can go in that profession, but
how far they want to go.
Women are valuable In banks
chiefly for their contacts. For the
most party they are not limited IN
their scope. But most woman bank
ing executives are perfectly content to
leave responsibility of q great finan-
cial institution to some one else"
Miss Grace s. Stoermer Of San
Francisco. convention chairman, said
many Of the $4,000 young women en-
ployed in banks are studying to pre-
pare themselves for more responsibility
Because women are proving them
selves in this unusual field" she de-
clared, I'VE find more and more col
lege girls training themselves for the
banking profession, and at the same
time a greater appreciation of their
services by men banking ofiicials"
Miss Sturgis asserted experience has
shown many men will readily accept
advice on financial matters from a
woman.
She saw a waning Of a prejudice
that banking Is solely for men.

Nebraska Agronomist Says
Conditions Ripe for Worst
Farm Tragedy.
BY the Associated Press.

LINCOLN. Nebr, September l8.-
D. L. Gross. extension agronomist Of
the Nebraska Agricultural College.
asserted yesterday that conditions
brought about by protracted drought
in the Middle West held a threat Of
duststorms in 1897 infinitely worse
than those of the Spring TO 1885"
From observations in his own
State, Gross said he was convinced
that should the Spring of 1887 be
dry one, the stage already is set
for duststorms the like of which
Nebraska has never witnessed"
Vast Area Bare.
Millions of acres in Nebraska are
now bare of vegetation" he said.
Soil on these acres is in a powdery,
blowable condition, and with the
freezing and thawing of Winter will
become more So"
The agronomist said more than half
Of Nebraska's 100000 corn acres
were unprotected by cover crops or
weeds, and that an additional two OF
three million acres of land which
never was Summer fallowed before
was in danger of blowing.
Because Of the drought very little
water has stored in the soil," he con-
tinued.
Urges Seeding.
In addition he listed 5000 900 acres
Of land normally seeded to Winter
wheat, now plowed and ready for
seeding, but not seeded because Of
lack of moisture.
He urged the seeding Of small
grains, such as oats and barley and
Fall rye or pasture crops, to cover the
soil and hold it from the blowing
winds Of the Winter and Spring.
I'VE can only hope that we will have
adequate rainfall soon to allow these
Fall-sown crops to cover the ground
we'll" Gross said, and that Spring
conditions will be moist so that the
soil will be held in place on those
fields that do not get covered this
Fall"

Philip Murray, chairman Of the Steel
Workers Organizing Committee, pre-
dicted yesterday the United States Steel
Corp. will grant a wage increase. b8t
is withholding the announcement as
part Of general scheme Of big
business to defeat the reelection Of
President Roosevelt"
The chief lieutenant of union Ia

wage earners in one organization
made his assertion in a 2,o00-word
reply to B. F. Fsirless. president Of
the United States Steels Carnegie
Illinois Corp.
Fairless notified his O,000 employees
last week there would be no wage
boost because, he said. earnings and
past-due dividends made such a step
unwise at this time.
Intends to Use Fund.
Murray asserted Fairless stated a
case of property rights which ignores
human rights of the workers and
pointed out that s1l 100000, set aside
by the corporation from s16,000,00
net profits during the first haR OF
1896, Is taxable under new Federal
laws.
He continued:
1T is obvious United States Steel
intend to use its surplus funds in
stead of letting item be taxed.
I'VE all know small percent

the bulk will be used to grant q wage
increase The growing tide Of the

ing, will grant it.

1T is plain to all, Of course, the
refusal to increase wages is a part
of the general scheme of big business
to defeat the reelection of President
Roosevelt.
Aware of the fact a wage increase
would aid recovery already set in mo-
ton by the New Deaf policies Of the
Roosevelt administration, Steel is
withholding an increase for political
reasons"
murray presented statistics which
he said showed the recent S2-a-ton
price boost in certain steel products
justified a wage increase and how
Government loans to railroads and
expenditures had made possible "enor-
nous profits" for Steel.
