NOT A THIRD TERM
FOR THE FARMER

One Of the problems which will doubt
less have the attention of congress will
be farm legislation in the effort to cure
what Is amiss with the present program.
And even Secretary Wallace will prob
ably agree that there is something amisS
Prior to the election he was still of the
opinion that despite the low price of
farm commodities. the general dissatis-
faction among the farmers was not Suf-
ficient 10 cause the defeat of some law
makers in agricultural areas who had
been most enthusiastic i'm support of his
impossible policies. With that in mind.
he declared TO the Kansas voters that
ballot east against Senator Mckill
would be ballot cast against his farm
program. And we all know what hap
pened To Senator McGill after the farm
erS heard that statement We can only
conclude that they very much desire
a legislative program which will cure
the abSurditieS Of the present one.
Through the middle west and very
largely in the northwest the farmer vote
disclosed opposition to the mistaken eff
forts To legiSlate the farmers into pros
perity contrary To economic laws. Even
Mr. Wallace will probably admit that
now But the hope is that he will not
be permitted to formulate a new policy
in the interest Of agriculture. He has
already two tries at that with the result
that farm prices are lower than in the
beginning. And in view of the insistent
demand of the farmers as shown by their
votes. it will be 4 courageous legislator
who supports the Wallace theories here
after That will be happy thing for the
country aS we'll Is for the farmers and
the inner circles at Washington whose
lradel.1hip has been 50 disastrous, should
be the first to recognize the sentiment
which has been disclosed to the world

LEON TROTSKY BECOMES
A BIT RIDICULOUS

Leon Trotshy. VINO disagreed with the
CommuniSts-in-poWer Of Russia and so
was exiled to France, and later to MeXi-
co, declared this week that capitalism
has reached its peak in the United States
and is now in a decline which will Lead
to the revolution"
Trotsky made a few other remarks
which cast an incidental light on his prin-
cipal theme.
He said. for instance, that Mayor
Frank Hague Of Jersey City is more pow
erful in this country than Franklin
Roosevelt.
That statement alone seems TO indi-
cate that Trotsky does not know what he
is talking about when he talks about the
United States.
But then, that is to be expected. From
Mussolini to Hitler to Stain, the dictat-
ors and leadls Of Europe's various
isms are unable to understand the Unit
ed States-and so arrive at some very
ridiculous conclusions.
And the most ridiculous Of these, to
date is TrOtSkYS

In the name Of humanity, and in the

Most people, hearing that Scotland
has now got new The Macintosh,
would immediately think of humble
article Of attire hanging in the hall cup
board, instead of celebrated Highland
chieftan whom il Is an insult to address
bv anything but his bare surname only.
SO, with the passage Of time, do words
decline in dignity and glory.
This depreciation of the verbal cur
rency is one Of the main difficulties
against which poetry has to contend.
Scarcely generation passes but the po
tential vocabulary of poetry is diminish
ed By the loss of a few words which
new and unromantic associations have
rendered unfit for high poetic usage.
Comparatively recent developments in
laws relating TO English unemployment
relief. for example, make it extremely
doubtful whether Shakespeare would to-
day cause Hamlet's uncle. at a very SOL
pmn moment to talk Of
In equal scale weighing delight and
dole.
The Highland clans have always made
great efforts 10 prevent this sort OF de
preciation affecting the dignity OF their
names for among their members claSSl-
cal titles abound. Not long ago there
was a Macintosh called Aeneas. Hec-
tor, too, IS a very popular name. But
the forces of commerce have triumphed
over their gallantry. The sentimental
may regret this but should set against
the loss to poetry of a fine resOunding
name the fact that they can now keep
dry during summer thunder storms.

Down New York'S Sixth avenue
has run an elevated railway line.
1t is an eyesore. 1t has blighted
property values for upwards of a
third of a century, it is rickety and
noisy and out-of date by any STAN
dard; SO the city finally decided to
abandon it, and its trains made
their final run the other morning.
And for these final runs there
was a great outpouring of paSSen-
gers. Not people who were going
any place in particular; just folk
who somehow hated to see fam
iliar landmark diSappear-even if
it was an ugly one-and who came
out to take a farewell ride by way
of sentiment.
On the same day, the papers re-
ported similar occurrence in
Pennsylvania.
Over in the mountains there was
one of those little nowhere -to-no-
where railroads that went winding
way back III among the glens and
valleys. The towns it served had
long since transferred most of their
business to the bus, the truck and
the privately owned auto. The road
was dying from sheer neglect. So.
to wind up its business, it ran a
farewell passenger train-and i'm
mediately did the biggest days
business in many a year.
Some 300 people came to take
the ride. Like the farewell riders on
the Sixth avenue eel they weren't
going anywhere in particular; they
were just out for the ride, express
sing by their action the illogical
and melancholy regret people al
ways feel when some familiar piece
of furniture has to be given up for
good.
