Boy Colony Law Still
Bars Rhode islanders

One Of the oldest and most I'M
usual laws in this country has been
on the books of Massachusetts,
since 1886. It was passed after the
Bay Colony had banished Roger
Williams for his religious views
and he and a few of his followers
had founded the first settlement in
Rhode Island. Still unrepealed, the
statute imposes the death penalty
on any Rhode Islander caught in

have confirmed what civic lead
ers have been maintaining -
that there are many ways In
which the small community,
probably to its own surprise,
can provide what growing num-
bers Of people want and cannot
find elsewhere. That is, first Of
all, q pleasant place in which to
work and live. The towns which
realize this and act on the idea
will be In favorable position.
Things most needed over the
country generally are better health
services, clinics, hospitals, park
spaces and swimming pools; new
jobs to take the place of those that
are being eliminated by farm ma
chinery. and more opportunities for
small farming on a family-support-
ing basis.
Devise New Projects.
Among the practical projects that
have been devised are rural home
steads for industrial workers, other
types of homesteads for young rural
couples wishing to get land and
make start in small farming, new
rural industries like seed testing,
poultry killing, alfalfa and sweet po-
tato dehydrating, mechanical re-
pairs and upkeep for farm machin-
cry and electrical installations in
rural homes, and various coopera-
tive projects, like machinery pools,
creameries, canning and other proc
essing enterprises.
To keep the rural economy stabi-
lized and to help the small farm
families survive in the competition
with big-scale farming, is a national
policy to which congress long has
been committed, and which is sup
ported by churches, farm fedora
tions and political parties.
The farm is the seed bed of the
nation, say the population special
lists and the rural economists. From
the farm come many of the men
and women of tomorrow. The cities
never have replaced themselves and
are not doing so now.
The rural institutions that
have been OutmOded should
have the attention of the whole
rural community. Over the
country generally, everything
from churches to mercantile
systems needs Overhauling, and 4.
there should be considerable ed
ucati0n about what a modern
rural community should under
take to do for its people.
The idea that the small town has
new and important functions should
be planted at once in the communi-
ties that are determined to catch UP
with the trends, and should be en-
phasized by repetition until the citi-
zens are convinced they should do
something about it.
Seeing Is Believing.
To get the rural community out
of its obsolescence and persuade it
to catch up with farming progress,
the whole people, youth and adults,
must be made to see community de-
ficiencies. They will not see until
they are made to take look. This
is going to take tact, persistence
and energetic leadership.
To help develop and direct such
leadership is one of the objects of
the agencies backing the rural life
movement. This movement will be
described in the next article in this
series.

getting away from the conges
and mills are springing up in !
changing the character of rural EN-.
ployment. AS machines displace Ia
Dor in farming, new rural occupa-
tions will have to be created. Other
wise local population losses are
inevitable.
Hence the people who live in the
country today need, and will have.
new kind Of community. The new
community must be more than a
place for trade. It must be the civic
center of the whole country round
about, as much devoted to matters
Of health, recreation and social
good. as to matters of business.
New Outlook Demanded.
To keep pace with these changing
conditions. the small towns will
have to get new shapes and new
outlooks. They will have to adapt to
the needs of their particular sur
roundings. They need re-designing
to make their activities suited to
the new rural life that is developing.
The country itself is becoming
''citified." That is, country peO-
pie are as style conscious and
as socially alert as city people.
They have new expectations of
their towns. Thus the towns
must reconsider their reasons
for being. The towns that recOg-
nize this will find ways for more
community usefulness. Those
that act boldly and with imagi-
nation are going to be heard
from.
These are the conclusions of those
who are watching the trends over
rural America. That is why the years
just ahead promise to be an era of
activity in rural community plan
ming.
For the small towns which bestir
themselves a bright and larger fu-
ture is in prospect. Now, for the
first time since the automobile and
the smooth highway switched trade
to the city, the rural communities
have chance to "come back"
They need not be content with OBJ
solescence. What they need is to
come alive, to shake themselves
and take hope.
That's the opinion of leaders in
the rural life movement, among
whom are Eugene Smathers, who
has developed model plan at Big
Lick, Tenn; DR.. Baker Brownel,
who directed the Montana rural
study for Rockefeller foundation;
o. E. Baker, social scientist of Uni
versity of Maryland, and Monsignor
L. C. Ligutti. secretary of National
Catholic Rural Life conference.
Pioneer in Program.
Important pioneering has been
done in rural community reorgani-
cation. The lead in actually demon
strating what can be done has been
taken by the Catholic and Protes-
tant churches, which have estab-
lished missions for social work in
several rural communities, and by
the American Friends Service COM
mittee. which has community prof.
ects in Pennsylvania and South
Carolina. Surveys and studies have
been made by Rockefeller founda-
ton, by various farm bureau feder-
ations, the farmers union, the ma
tional grange, some of the agricul-
tural colleges and the U. S. depart
ment of agriculture.
Taken together, these surveys and
inquiries show what is needed and
practical ways to go about filling the
needs.
