We are drifting toward a condition of chronic
economic distress and toward ultimate economic
decline, in spite Of vast resources and our IN
creasing productive capacity. The recent increase
of farm population in the face of the policy of re
striCted farm production is a symptom of this drift
ing process More population and less production
always add up to reduced standard of living.
And that is what we are drifting toward on Ameri-
can farms. This is especially true in the Older

II has become more and more commonplace on
the part of some critics to contend that the South
is an empire of low wages, enslavng economic

That such indictments spurious has long
been the battecry of the fair minded and patriotic
defenders of the South,
q. But now comes direct emphatic and convincing
! answer to such untruthful and passon-inspircd
| charges against the South whether these latter
! originate with Golfers, The Philadelphia Record,
! the White House, John L. Lewis, or even some
tme-serving lips organs within the South itself.
And this answer is furnished by the official fig
ures of the United States department of commerce.
They are neither mythical nor imaginary. They
are actual and realistic reliable, we take it, as
any set of figures compiled and released by any
official bureau of the Federal government.
A survey Of the records of the Federal Depart
mcnt of Commerce made by Secretary William
P. Jacobs of the South Carolina Cotton Manufac-
turers Association shows that for each dollar added
to the value of cotton manufactures during the
manufacturing process by the Southern employee.
63.7 cents were returned to him in wages. In
Northern cotton manufacturing, only 5l.6 cents Of
each dollar added by manufacture returned in
wages.
In compiling the figures the association selected
all cotton manufacturing states, both North and
South. in which total wages paid for the year, a
listed by the Department Of Commerce, came I"
one million dollars or more. Nine Southern States
and nine Northern States met this qualification.
Ranking the states according to the portion OF
the value added by the worker returned to HIM IN

states only one northern state was included

PEACE AND GOOD WILL. ARE
LABORED FOR
IA RRUCE CATTON(

We have done a lot of talking of late
about the unfortfed frontier between the
United States and Canada, and about the
Century of peace" between the two ma
tons. But mostly we haven't bothered to
md out much about the background of
this phenomenon; we seem to figure that
Americans and Canadians are Just natural
" more vjrtuouS than other peoples and
that their peaceful friendship is the logical
result Of that fact
\ bit of this unknown background is be-
ing unfoldCd currently i'm a pleasant little
celebration at an old windmill on the St
Lawrence river mile east of Prescott
Ont.
Probably you never heard of it before,
but it was Just a century ago that Ameri-
cans last fought Canadians; and the old
windmill was the scene of the fighting. So
the celebration makes our century of
peace" official
II seems that i'm 1888 band of some
800 Americans crossed the border, bent on
destroying a garrison of British regulars at
Fort Wellington. in the town of Prescott.
Relations between Canada and England
were somewhat strained at the time, and
a considerable faction in Canada was seek
ing independence; the Americans, for one
reason or another were out to see that the
Canadian rcvolutionists got their wish,
So the invasion took place. 1t fzzled
rapidly. The attack on Fort Wellington
failed, the Americans established them
selves in the old stone windmill, the Brit
ishers laid siege to the place, and after a
couple of days of fighting the Americans
surrendered A few of the leaders were
hanged and the rest were imprisoned; and
that was all there was to it.
All of this sounds very remote and I'M
real. today. Even at the time it failed to
make much of a stir, apparently; and it is
worth recalling now only because it indi-
Gates that this mUch-talked-Of peace be-
tween the two nations is something that
had to be worked for
That peace didn't just grow out of the
natural goodness of Americans and Cana
dams. and it didn't come because the two
peoples never had anything to quarrel
about. 1t is positive achievement rather
than negative one.
Americans and Canadians were original
" no more disposed to be chummy than
any other folk, They had their troubles
and they shed blood over them. The War
of 1912 was caused in good part by an
American desire to annex Canada; and as
late as 1898 the antagonism flared up in
this half-forgotten battle of the stone wind
mill.
Now a century of peace which is built on
that kind Of foundation really means some
thing It means that two nations which
really try to live in peace can do so; that
old hatredS, suspicious and jealOusies real
" can be shelved, and that men of good
viii can silence the war-mongerS if they
actually make the effort.
Which. in world that seems too tired
to make the effort to live at peace, is some
thing well worth remembering.
