LAUGHTER AND DEATH

Not long ago in home Which
had been visited by death, one
member Of the family was rebuk-
ed by another for laughing.
Spells of gaiety are not uncom-
mon, nor out of place, in homes
of mourning. They have their
value. They relieve the tension.
Some years ago was in home
where the dearest member of the
family lay in her casket in the
living room. She had been the be-
loved wife, or the mother, or the

those people were not suited to
such an environment. They were
not at ease, and those with whom
they associated were not at ease
with them. Finally; after a series
of heartbreaking experiences, the
man lost everything he had ex-
cept his old farm. Back to the
farm he and his family went,
where they found again peace and
contentment. In one respect this
man was unusually fortunate -

FARM RELIEF PINS A MEDAL ON
ABUNDANCE
(By BRUCE CATTON)s

(By BhUCE CA1 1ON
Secretary Wallace's 1.-TWO price" scheme
for disposing of American farm surpluses
by subsidized eut-rate sales to the needy
may be wildly Impractical, dangerously
socialistic, or just plain screwy, but there
is one thing to be said for it. 1t is the first
farm-relief measure which treats bumper
crops as blessing rather than curse.
So far we have tried to handle the farm
problem by assuming that the age-old goal
of agriculture-to make the earth yield as
bountifully as Divine Providence would al
low-was somehow wrong.
We have talked about over-production
of farm produce and about SURPRISES OF
foodstuffs just as if every mortal in the
land were getting all he could eat of every
desirable food, day in and day out; and to
follow policy like that at time when
some millions of people would be starving
if it were not for government help is a
certain way to get into confusion.
So we had first of all, the outright de-
struction of crops that were ready for the
market-the burning of wheat, the killing
of pigs, and so on. All this amid scenes of
widespread want. 49,. ... -
Next we had acreage reduction, with the
federal government which meanwhile
was providing food for millions of its citi-
zens-paying farmers to produce less and
less.
More recently we have had elaborate
schemes for dumping our SURPRISES on for
eign shores; and when you study that plan
for minute, it appears to be the queerest
of all. For the net result of this would
simply be to make American1grown food
stuffs available to foreign consumers at
bargain rates, and at the expense of the
American consumer and taxpayer. If any,
one is going to benefit in that way,
shouldn't it be the American rather than
the foreigner?
Now this new rabbit sticks tentative
muzzle over the edge of the hat. We shall
probably get some six months of argument,
pro and con, before the exact shape of the
plan is clear. Meanwhile, it can at least
be said that the proposition does represent
a new and slightly more logical approach
to the problem.
For the underlying trouble with these
other schemes is that they all operated on
the thesis that abundance is disaster,
Far from giving US the answer to this gem
eration's battling problem about want in
the midst of plenty, they accentuated that
problem. They represented a national re-
fusal even to face the implications of the
age of plenty. a--
The, new plan at least heads in the other
direction. Difficulties in The way of put.
ting it into effect probably will be many
He would be a dullard indeed who
couldn't think of at least half a dozen, just
offhand. ~"s.".
But for the. fact that it does. represent
an effort to make plenty mean plenty, we
may all be thankful. = e So

BUSINESS MAN NEEDED

What we need in Washington at the head of the

who thinks more of the welfare of his country
than he does of power to dictate Oh, for such a
man!-Albert Lea, Mimi, Tribune.

HE FOUND HIS PLACE

One of the happiest men | know
is a well-to-do physician who gave
up good practice in a large city
and moved to a rural section
where there was no physician. The
people love him and he loves the
people. He has taken the whole
county under his wing. He makes
it his business to see to it that ev-
cry one of his patients has prop
er care. If trained nurse is
needed, he summons one from
the, city, and pays her himself. If
the patient is able to reimburse
him, well and good. That man is
really living. And his wife, a for
mer society girl, is as deeply in
terested in his work as he is.

Vests slugging. which boosted his
