flag that has in reality written upon
it liberty, fraternity, equality, the
three grandest words in all the Ian

Liberty gives 10 every man the

we are celebrating the courage and
wisdom of our fathers, and the glad

AMT 1T THE TRUTH

A friendly kentuckian contributes
the following bit OF foollShncSS.
Those oldtlmers who have been tell
ing this tale for the last decade will
probably laugh at its resurrection,
and those who nave never heard
sucn talk, can skip tiff they don't
like white mules.
Over the hill trailed man behind
a mule. drawing pillow. Said the
man to the mule: Bill, you are 4
mule, the son Of a jackaSS, and l am
a man, made in tine image of God.
Yet here we work, hitched up to-
gether, year in and year out. l often
wonder if you work for me or l
work for you. Verify, l think it is a
partnership between mule and a
fool, for surely work as hard as
you do, if not harder. Flowing or Gull
tivating, we cover the same distance,
but you do it on four legs and on
two. l, therefore, do twice as much
work per leg, as you do.
Soon we'll be preparing for a
corn crop. When the crop is harvest

one-third goes to you and the balance
is mine. You consume all Of your
portion with the exception of the
cobs, while l divide mine among
seven children, six hens, two ducks
and banker. If VIC both need shoes,
you get 'em.
Bill, you are getting the best of
me and l ask you is it fair?"
"Why, you only help TO pillow and
cultivate the ground, and l alone,
must cut, shock and husk the corn,
while you look over the pasture fence
and hce-haW at me.
All fall and most of the winter, the
whole family, from Granny to the
baby, picks cotton to raise money to
pay taxes, buy a new harness and
pay the interest on the mortgage on

rying about the mortgage on your
touchy, ungrateful hide.
About the only time l am your

and you can't. And after election day

And that amt all, Bill. When you
arc dead, that's supposed to be the
end of you. But me? I've still gotta

Labor',s Role

However desirable it may be for
labor to close its ranks in a move
ment for permanent peace, that even
tuality in itself is secondary to
labor'S role in the national defense
program. Whether the American
Federation of Labor and tho Go can
compose their differences between
them, II is incumbent upon the
workers Of the country. the same as
.pon industry, agriculture. the pro-
LESSONS and all other groups, TO give
their utmost in patriotic cooperation
70 the end that the nations safety
may be assured.
Much has been said of the degree
TO which the ClO is commlmlZcd.
Opinions differ as TO that. But if It's
ranks are as largely populated by
adhercntS to communism as some
have claimed. its attitude may quite
conceivably be one of surface &C
quieScence, while at heart there is
less cooperation and coordination Of
effort.

OTHERS VIEWS
AGAINST CROP CONTROL

To the EDITOR.
Farm control is again the issue of
the day. I hope the farmers every
where will think seriously Of their
future welfare as July 20 approaches
and cast a conscientious vote for or
against.
As l see it Rev. 1916, II applies
to farm control at this time. The
powers that be" are determined that
all working people shall have the
mark Of THE Beast in their fore
heads and none shall buy or sell
that have not that mark. The "War
frogs" are croaking louder and loud
En- Therefore there shall be no peace
to him that goeth in or to him that
qoeth out. Some years the Lord
sends abundant crops to take care
of the lean ones. God knoWeth what
we have need of. The whole world
will suffer if we interfere with his
plans.
There will never be made too
much of farm crops as long as
thousands of farm boys are leaving
the farms and II to Is millions OF
our population are facing starvation
and untold millions in other coun-
tries. The big city planters, the poll
ticians, the white collared clerks and
the money lenders wish to fasten
their schemes on the dirt farmers as

Is the answer to the prayers OF
thousands of American mothers VINO

tered on the foreign battle fields OF
Europe, but it calls my memory back
to Woodrow Wilson's days IN the
World War while seeking the second
term He made. most solemn ana
sacred promise 10 the mothers OF
America that if they would re-elect
him that he would never send boys
away from them to fight on foreign
battle field. He was reelected upon
mat promise by an Overwhelming
majority, but it was a broken pro-
mise from the highest authority IN
the land, and less than five months
after he was put back into office he
declared war. My mother supported
him and l know that yours did, too,

misses are like Mr.. Wilson'S. l think
that all of our boys should be kept

German Meddling

Nazi Spokesmen have been tree
and definite in their declarations
that they have announced no plans
for extending their domineerlng
program to the Western Hemisphere,
and, in response to a warning from
Secretary Hull to keep hands off,
have said the United States should
keep out of Europe'S affairs.
Assertions from Berlin are not
worth the breath it takes to make
them and mean nothing so far as
promises go. OF late, however. there
have been evidences that Germany
already is meddling in the New
World politics. the most recent Incl
dent being the yelled warning to
small Latin American republics to
have nothing to do with the coming
Havana conference OF hemisphere
foreign ministers. To their credit
it must be said that the small states
to which a threat was directed by
the German minister in Panama
have resented his interference and
have indicated they would ignore 1t.
But this and other incidents have
a meaning The Nazi spokesman in
Panama. one may be sure, was not
acting on has own initiative. Ger
mans under Hitler do not display
such boldnesS. il they think much OF
their neckS Utterances OF this kind
are inspired, if not ordered, from
Berlin, and have a distinct re-
semblance to methods employed in
advance OF the blitzkriegS that have
wiped out so many governments and
nations in the past several years.
Here is the beginning, it may be
assured, of German meddling in the
New World. The full picture will
not be exposed to view all at once
1t was not in Europe. But the pat
tern is the same, and we shall be
wise if we recognize it at the outset
and prepare as best we can to meet
it.
Alrv- " the President of the
United States, in so far as lies with
in his power, and even beyond that
point, has openly and before the
world pledged assistance and pro-
lection to the republics of the
Americas. But if we are to make
good on our promises, we must take
care that we are in position to go the
full distance. Until we are SO pre-
pared, it might be just as well if we
soft-pedaled d bit on that note.
AT the same time, the smaller ma
tons should be sufficiently buttreSS-
ed to bolster their resistance to in
roads Of foreign iSmS and foreign
populations. Let them know, to be
sure, that we are moving as fast as
we can to reach the point where
we can back up our position by force,
if it comes to that, and that if a
showdown develops there will be no
mistaking as to our course. All OF
which is the more reason for speed
in the task to which already we
have set our hands with d vim and d
determination.
