most beautiful picture he ever painted.

just a handy man around town.

true" He is now art professor at
the University of Iowa.
Winter" by Rockwell Kent %.
1882->-Mr. Kent has probably the
largest income of any American artist.
He is also the most widely known,
partly for his commercial art for
advertising purposes, which commands
high prices, partly as an illustrator

Washington, D. G.. (ILNS)-The

convention petitioned the president

The resolution further asked the
government to "set an early date for

which date our military and naval

new PROGRAM
TO CUT
Surpluses of Crops Aims At
Fair Prices

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-The
program of agricultural conservation
just announced by Secretary Wallace
calls for the retirement of from 49,
100000 to 30000,000 acres planted
this year to cotton, corn, tobacco,
peanuts and rice. These are classed
as the chief crops which deplete the
soil; and it is hoped to secure the
planting of soil conserving crops on
these acres.
The government has no power to
enforce these retirements. 1t has
power to pay sums to farmers who
comply with the program. The top
sums contemplated are 2 cents a
pound for cotton, 10 cents bushel for
corn, one cent a pound for certain
kinds of tobacco, one-eighth of cent
a pound for rice, one-fifth of a cent
a pound for peanuts. These benefits
will be paid ON the average yield per
acre in the district of the land taken
out of this particular use.
Provision is made that the benefit
payments shall be divided as the crop
is divided. In other words, even the
share cropper is not overlooked in this
allotment. The top sum mentioned
and this not officially, as involved in
this program for 1888 is $4,000, 900
Everyone who has studied the ques-
tion at all agrees that it is impossible
to get fair prices if surpluses of those
crops are allowed to accumulate at
will. That was settled, once for all,
by the total failure of the Hoover
farm program; under which, with the
government spending a great deal of
money to help the farmers get decent
prices, the actual price at the farms
of wheat dropped to 25 cents bushel
cotton to five or six cents a pound
and millions of acres of corn were
never harvested because corn and the
hogs that corn is fed to were so cheap
that it did not pay to harvest the corr
after it was grown.
Surpluses, particularly of cotton
are getting big again; and inevitably
prices are dropping. As this is writ
ten, cotton is cents a pound, corn
cents, and wheat 10 cents a bushel less
than the same crops brought year
ago.
Secretary Wallace was careful te
state that this is just one step towarc
the plan of an lever normal gran
ary" and reasonably stable prices fol
| farm products.

Federal Judge Assails
Sit-DOwn Strikes

Baltimore, Md. (ILNS)-U. S. Dis
trict Judge William C. Coleman does
MT like sit-down strikes. Character
izing them as violation Of all the
principles on which this government
is founded" Coleman ordered federal
marshals to clear % seamen sitdown-
ers from the vessel, Oakmar, tied uI
off Sparrows Point, Md.
Before marshals could carry out the
order, however, the seamen left the
vessel on orders of Charles Hansen
National Maritime Union official.
Coleman's order and criticism OF
sit-down strikes was made in uphold
ing a plea of the Colmar Steamship
Co, that the striking seamen be re.
moved from the vessel.
In rendering his decision, Coleman
rebuked attorneys who appeared in be

PRINTERS APPROVE
PEACE RESOLUTION

Louisville, KY. (ILNS)-Approval
of plan designed to bring peace
between the American Federation of
Labor and the committee for indus
trial organization marked the closing
session of the eighty-frst annual con-
vention of the international Typo
graphical Union here. No direct vote
on the question of A. F. of L.-ClO
affliation was taken. The ITU re-
mains a member of the A. f. OF L.,
though its president, Charles P How
ard. is secretary of the CIO.
Real Peace Move Seen
The peace plan was suggested IN
a resolution adopted by virtually
unanimous vote. The resolution sug-
gests the American Federation of La
bor amend it's constitution so that
the federation would have nothing
but advisory powers over the mem
Der unions, thus leaving organizing
work open to the unions themselves
Both sides declared that the reso-
luton, which was offered by COM
mittee as substitute for several
others demanding withdrawal from
the A. F. of L. and affiliation with the
CIO was the first real peace move
made between the rival factions.
They said that under it the fedora
tion could act as adviser, leaving the
way clear for the CIO to organize the
unions
Candidates Offered
The independent" faction OF the
union offered a list of candidates fol
election next May headed by Claude
NJ. Baker, of San Francisco, at pres.
ent first vice president. He will op
pose President Howard, leader of the
"progressives.
The Independents also oppose How
ard on his stand on union affiliation
They wish to submit the question Of
a referendum to the unions 10000
members.
