WHOSE BABY?

Whose baby is the Irrigation Dis
tricts bond refunding plan?
Was it conceived in the minds of
the bcndholders, brought forth by
the labors of their attorneys, laid
in the lap of the Farm Bureau,
passed by a few of its members to
the Irrigation District to be
SUCKLED by its farmers?
The proposed plan is introduced
by ten Conly ten) "whereases", the
last one reading as follows: Where
as the District desires to carry out
and execute said partially complet-
ed plan of 1882 and said Warrant
Retirement Plan, as a plan of COM
position, with certain changes and
notifications, which in the light of
events subsequent to 1882, ARE
DEEMED NECESSARY AND AD-
VISABLE FOR THE PROTECTION
OF THE INTERESTS OF THE
RCNDHOLDERS AND HOLDERS
OF WARRANTS AFFECTED
THEREBY. l repeat in part,
Fer THE PROTECTION OF THE
LIN EfCEo . VT ne PoAND-
HCLDERS AND HOLDERS OF
WARRANTS" ISN'T THAT PLAIN
ENGLISH? WHOSE INTEREST?
WHOSE BABY? HUH!
Will our RICH farmers vote the
PLAN to protect the interests of
the POOR, POOR holders of bonds
and warrants? I ask, will they?
If you see people wabbling along
the street don't be too sure they are
drunk - they may only be dizzy
from reading their printed copy of
the plan-confused over what may
be between the lines.

absurd to claim that the Demo-
cratic party from 1910 to 1875 was
the party Of Jefferson or jackson,
or that the Republican party from
1868 to 1898 with the possible ex-
ception Of few years Theodore
Roosevelt was President) was the
party of Abraham Lincoln.
The President took a swing at
some Of the potential presidential
candidates Of both parties. Smart
managers in the old days, he said,
looked for a man with a protec-
tive reputation, an obvious but un-
alert integrity-a complete absence
of plan or even Of thought" Both
parties, he said, in considering their
candidates for President and Vice
President should apply that
formula to the dozens who, like
Barkis, seem, even at this moment,
to be very, very willing"
He told his audience that younger
generations of Americans by very
large majorities intend to keep on
going places" with the New Deal.
He gave praise to new lieutenants
whom I'VE are constantly recruit
ing" saying they are intent upon
doing good jobs rather than merely
keeping themselves on the pay

other"
Can't Afford to Sit Still.
Maintaining that the Democratic
party cannot afford to sit still, but
must be an aggressively liberal
party, Mr.. Roosevelt said that Presi-
dent Jackson's Democratic successor
in the White House, Martin Van
Buren,, was turned out of office be-
cause he and his followers failed
to deliver what they had promised
Ito any one except themselves"
The President said a full genera
ton of 20 years intervened before
the principle of Andrew Jackson's S
true democracy came back to life
with the next real Democrat, Abra-
ham Lincoln. He, incidentally, was
chosen President only by the
founding of a new party"
The President said it would be
