The editor Of the Cooperator he's re-
ceived letters suggesting that the name
of the paper be changed.
The writer's state that they had no
voice in the selection Of the name, and
since the paper belongs to the entire
community they have right in asking
that the name be changed.
Without minimi z ing in the least the
validity Of this argument the editors
Of the Cooperator feel that they should
not entertain any suggestions regarding
q change in the name Of the paper until
after q me- jority Of the citizens Of

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
REpERcUssIoNs FROM CROP CONTROL

A new liberty league has been organized
This time by the farmers of Illinois Wno' III uiei'
rage against corn acreage allotments under 'he
crop control Federal law, have oanaeu Unei''
selves into the Corn Belt Liberty League.
We would not in the least be surprised TO near
of the formation of the Cotton Belt LIpefty
League.
Indignation over allotments for cotton acreage
is clearly in the air.
Only recently, we understood, farmers OF
South Carolina county lying near the coast, got
together in mass assemblage, exploded their lndig-
nations and uttered their threats to ignore the law
and go on and do as they please.
Like reverberations are occasionally heard on
the streets of Charlotte as coming from farmers
who have only recently been informed as to no"
mnay acres they plant in cotton tins season.
And some of these allotments so decreased
from the decreases they have been making since
the government took charge Of their affairs that
in some cases, they are telling their tenant farm
ers to move on to town and get on the relief rolls
there won't be enough cotton acreage to go
around!
Well, all that we for the moment have to say IN
this connection is that when any class of the Amer
lean people invite their government to put halter
around their necks, they should not complain if on
occasions it begins to scratch the skin, or for that
matter, if in other cases. it all but shuts off ones
wind-Charlotte Observer.

WE WANT NO HITLERISM

Hugh Wilson, ambassador to Germany, is max
ing a study of the German governments outdoor
camps for hoys and girls.
He is also looking into the Hitler Youth Move
ment which is regulating the lives of some seven
million German boys and girls. And he is doing
this at the request Of President Roosevelt.
That is all right as a matter of information, but
if Mr.. Roosevelt has any idea of starting something
like it in America it is an idea that ought to be
effectively squelched before grows into anything
like purpose.
Mr.. Roosevelt says he is much interested in the
camps, but he doesn't know much about them ex-
cept that the boys and girls seem to be improving
physically.
And it doesn't require very much imagination to
understand why that is desirable object in the
minds of Hitler and his tyranical Nazis.
The physical objective of the German camps IS
good and desirable. Outdoor camps for boys and
girls are fine institutions, which believe should
be encouraged
Through the Boy and Girl Scout organizations
Y NJ. C. AS, All clubs and other youth organ
izations in the United States these camps are be-
coming every year more and more popular and
beneficial.
But any effort at government reorganization OF
American youth for this or any other purpose
smacks too much of Hitler and Nazsm for the
American people to swallow.-Rock Hill Herald.

SENDING MONEY AWAY

Times may be tough in South Carolina but
well, Prof. A. B. Bryan of Clemson College says
that this state produces only 10 per cent Of the
eggs it consumes.
Moreover, he says that the number OF chickens
per farm in this state is less than halt the average
for the United States and that 10000 farms in the
state have no poultry at all.
We have Unemployment and other problems de-
handing earnest attention but we also have golden
opportunities for enterprising men VINO are able
and willing to work.
Annually we send millions out OF the state for
eggs. poultry and other foods and numerous manu-
featured products when we could and should keep
much of the money at home-Greenville Piedmont.

SELE.DEEEATING

This country is obsessed with the idea that the
way to be prosperous is to raise the price every
body gets for goods and services. The idea seems
to be for the sellers of labor to get higher wages
the sellers of raw materials to get higher prices
the sellers of services to get higher compensation
and SO on all around.
Now, if a few sellers can get more for whatever
they sell while nobody else sells, it is prosperity
indeed for that few. But if general scramble
all around for higher charges is successful, then
the forgotten fact that the seller of one thing must
be buyer of many things effectually cancels adj
vantage to any.
1t is, for fact, strange how the demand Is al
ways for lacking up prices, the complaint is always
about low prices, yet with lower prices all around
any given individual may actually profit more tnan
at higher prices all around Meantime, lower prices
would swell demand for everything causing eX-
banded production and more employment.
Why is the consumer viewpoint so continuously
ignored in favor of the producer viewpoint? 1t
must be because it is more direct and easy to see
an increased income in dollars than to see increase
in the list of things purchased by the smaller IN
come. There is, too, the underlying gamblers nope
that other prices may not be raised generally
enough to offset definite increase OF ones own
Explain it, however, as you may, certainly the pro
Queer or seller is far more noisy about demanding
higher prices than the consumer is wee versa
