as we'll as in other ways, would
you? Personally. we think it
shows an ambition to want to
90 something and to learn
something when a fellow takes
up farming. Farming, itself, is
an art that is away over the
headS OF most people and when
anyone has the desire to show
mat they have CUTS and ability
and aspirations for a higher
and better life, we think that
they should be encouraged,
Rosebud-don't be dog-in-the-
mangerish. You can take the
lawyers IN particular. Since the
advent OF the new deal, what
mas a lawyer to look forward to
mot a thing, my friend, not a
tnlng. He can neither promote
himself into farming or de-
mote himself into politics.
Take our friend Rings, for
instance. He chose the higher
life and went into farming and
has succeeded. He now has three
or four farms. He figured out
the difference in the status quo
of a client who had no money
and a good COW with maternal
instincts. Being naturally af-
1llcted with a super abundance
OF ideas he now has the oppor-
tunity to make use OF them.
Who would have the heart to
say him nay?
OF course, we wouldn't want
to stretch our Imagination so
Tar as to say that a farm is a
financial asset but when we
think of Rings in that modern
countryside home of his sitting
SpraWled before a beautifully
large fireplace, fueled with large
cottonwood logs that somebody
else CUT and the roaring flames
spreading a cheerful glow over
the whole picture, the while he
soothes that tumultuous mass
which he calls his brain. bv
blowing those large and diamet-
really perfect smoke rings,
gradually bringing said mass in
to an equilibrious or statical
state wherein peace and quiet
comes, not only to him but to
everyone else-we repeat-when
we think of all this, Rosebud,
we couldn't have the heart to
censure a man for wanting to
become a farmer-not even a
lawyer.
Rather touchin' - that last
PARAGRAPH - don't YOU think,
Rosebud? Well, anyhow, we've
concludecfS that everybody is
crazy, up to a certain point, ev-
en- as you and I.
So-long,
Rhode Island Red.

Landlords Raising Farm
Tenants Rent In La.

New Orleans, Feb. 8 (ANP)-
Because tenant farmers In Louisi-
an ~cooperated with landlords in
voting for the 1889 AAA crop re-
duction, and because the tenants
received sums insufficient to care
for their needs in 1888, the Louisi-
ana Farmers union charges many
of the landlords with conspiracy
because they are now saying that
they must raise the rent Of the
tenants.
Realizing that they could not
survive a crisis similar to the
they experienced in 1888, the cot
ton tenant farmer held hopes for
increased prices through the AAA
crop reduction program. It Is re-
ported that now landlords claim
that tenants receive too much mon
ely from the government and that
the rents will have to be raised
in 1889.
Many planters claim that they
have the approval of assistant
parish agents, who represent the
AAA. Specific instances given by
the union are that in Avoyellos
parish cash rent has been raised to
as much at $40 per acre In St
Landry parish where most of the
share tenants. are on the third,
their managers and landlords have
instructed them that they mut
furnish their own posts and stap-
les. In Pointe Coupee parish where
the share rental, has always been
one-fourth. several large planta-
tions have changed to one-third,
and in many parishes half hands
have been told that they would
have TO sign over all or part Of
their AAA checks.
It is fatal to move because NOV
ing costs $50 and the tenant is
forced to sell his stock or give 1t
up. In most cases the new place
to which he moves does not have
cotton acreage.

Bomb Negro Apartments
In White Neighborhood

New Orleans, Feb 9 (ANP)=
Attemps to drive Negro residents
out of the uptown section Of the
area of short sereet were eviden-
eed in the terrific explosion of a
bomb on the front upper porch Of
a four apartment building last wk.
Three of the apartments r occu-
pied by Negro families who were
awakened by the explosion about
1890 at night. A window was brok-
en-, a porch partition blown assun-
der and flower pots blown to bits.
The total damage was estimated
at about $50.
The families of Arthur Randolph.
David Jackson and Joseph Augustus
were unable to determine whether
the bomb was placed on the upper
porch or thrown there. Gushes of
smoke caused persons passing to
call the fire department.
Edward Oaks, white landlord of
the building, insisted that he would
urge the police to make a thorough
investigation. Past instances Of IN
timidation TO the families were re-
lated.
One of the families stated that
when they were moving into the
apartment last June, police were
called by some of the white neigh
bors charging that they were OBJ
structing passage on the sidewalk
with the moving van. 1t was also
said that threatening letters and
kilograms had been sent to them,
and phone messages had threatened
them. They stated that the landlord
had given aid in securing police
vigilance in the area several times
when intimidating violence was
threatened.

marking the sixth anniversary of
the Nazi rise-to-power DR.. Holt at
tributes to the sitter front pre-
scented recently by England and
France and to the hostile attitude
taken by the United States o.
ward the Reich dictator.
DE- Holt, dean of the college and
head of the history and government
department at the University of
Omaha, recently figured the con-
troversy over the Omaha showing
of the film "Inside Nazi Germany"
He accepted the Craftsmanship of
thd films sponsoring committee
after several others had resigned
from the committee.
The Dean said that even the
scattered bits of pugnacity which
peppered the Reichfuehrer's speech
were "vague statements which com
mitted Germany to nothing def
mite"
"Hitler was vague about the
kind of support he would give
Mussolini in the Duce's demands
for territory from France. He did
not even mention these demands
specifically"
DIR. Holt is skeptical of the Fue-
hrer's statement that his interest
in South America is purely COM
mercial. The Deans points out that
Nazi economic penetration is al
ways accompanied by theological
penetration, that the Nazis often
use commerce as a spearhead for
political advancement.
"The Nazi technique in South
America is to exert pressure on
Germans living there to support
the Netherlands political program.
This pressure may take several
forms. The German government
may coerce the South American
Germans by threatening to with
hold benefits from the Nazi trade
