Farmers Urged To
proiect 1919 Crops
With Crop Insurance

Protection of the cotton crop in
vestment is provided by the Fed
eral Crop Insurance policies avail
able to eligible Holmes county
cotton producers who apply for
the insurance soon.
The farmer pays a premium for
the protection which means that
he makes small increase in his
operating costs to protect the
money and labor he invests in the
crops production, against losses
which no farmer can control.
The good farmer plants and
farms each year with a goal of
producing a bumper crop. Most
years he reaches or approaches
this goal. but the years that he
doesn't he loses part or all Of the
investment that he has made in
his production effort. A Federal
Crop Insurance policy plugs this
gap in his farm plans by protect
ing his investment against the
production risks that neither his
good farming methods nor good
seed can control.
The Federal Crop Insurance
policy available to Holmes county
producers who make application
provides the farmer protection
against what can happen to his
crop investment. With the Fed
eral Crop Insurance program,
Holmes county producers have the
opportunity to build basic protec-
ton of their business enterprises
which will contribute materially

bosses in their fight to prevent any
legislation designed to diminish their
power to strangle the nation. In re-
turn, the labor bosses support both
the Presidents foreign and domestic
program. If there is 4 single issue
upon which they diverge it has not
been presented.
Few detached persons will deny
that this combination damages the
national interests With such a COM
bination the cards are definitely
stacked against industry. When the
labor unions strike they are certain
to get at least half what they de-
maud. The best industry possibly can
do is to compromise. The alternative
is Government seizure, adverse pub
lie sentiment and eventual settlement
favorable to the unions. Naturally,
they compromise What else it there
for them to do? You can't combat the
United States Government. What
then is the situation? The COM
promise having added to the cost of
production, the industry, in order to
stay in business, must increase the
price Of its product. Just as inevi-
tably the labor bosses come back
next year or the year after with more
demands for more money. The whole
performance is repeated. Labor in
diets the selfish interests" the White
House supports the labor bosses; the
strike is called; the country is
flooded with propaganda; the White
House throws its weight on the labor
side, the companies compromise.
Who is the gamer? Clearly, the
companies can't gain because the cost
Of production forced on them always
Offsets the increased price Of the pro-
ducts. Clearly, the net gain of the
workers is offset by the less of
wages during the strike, and by the
increased cost of living resulting
from the COMPROMISED This is in
dictionary in its direction, increasing
the cost Of living to the people
generally. Such a situation, consti-
tutes an irresistible temptation to the
labor bosses Whose salaries and eX-
pense accounts are not affected by
the strikes to strike at almost regu-
lar intervals.
when the current strikes are all
settled and the rise in prices alb
sorbed by the public, inevitably we
must look forward to another in
which again Mr.. Murray, as unctu-

ally menaced the economic welfare Of
the nation, ought TO make several
basic things about the labor-manage-
ment situation clearer than before.
One is that no matter how right it
may be, industry no longer can hope
to win in any controversy with the
big unions The merits are immaterial
so far as the outcome is concerned.
They may all be en- the side of in
dustry, but the best industry can eX-
pect is compromise by which most
of the union demands are concerned.
That has been demonstrated so often
that there seems no room for argu-
ment. There is one overwhelming
reason for this state of affairs. 1t can
be summed up briefly-in every big
strike the Government is found on the
union side This has been true since
1896, when the late Mr.. Roosevelt
made his political alliance with the
newly formed Clio and lent his name,

Gus a labor demagogue as we have,
will rail against the "sellish inter-
ests" and call the employers flat
ulent blatherskites" and "sanctimoni-
Gus hypocrites." Government spol,es-
men again will tune themselves to
these refined epithets. The merits in
volved, if any, will be obscured and
the price level to the public once
more raised. What is the end Of all
this? Unquestionably, the trend is
toward naturalization of industry
along British lines. So long as the
Administration remains wholly sub
servient to the labor unions and con-
tinues political alliance that pre-
vents enactment of any law which
will protect the national interests,
this trend will be accelerated. The
ablest economists are in agreement
about that Unless the White House
can be freed from its shameful ser
Witty, some form Of naturalization
with the Government controlling both
wages and prices seems sure That
