effort i i der to stop the inexcusable hun and material waste now uf by fire? -Industrial News Rev ew. COMMUNIZING AGRICULTURE. From comments on the recently enacted crop control bill, we quote from Industrial News Review the following concise review of the voluminous measure. Says our commentator: feeling about this bill i-s that from the standpoint of intelligible legislation it is the most completely conglomerate mess of involved language which was ever perpetrated upon a free Thus did Senutor Arthur Vandenberg, most dependable spokesman for the minority party on Capitol Hill, express his opinion of the new farm bill. Mr.

Vandenberg was more biting than most but it is a matter of record the bill has few friends. Attitude of many of those who voted for it is probably neatly refletced in (ieoige observation that aps it will not what will is impossible to adequately brief the bill in a short space- it consumed 104 page- of print in its final, approved form. Briefly, it at tempts to include in one measure three previously tried farm-aid legis- theories voluntary crop control, as provided for in the original AAA law; compulsory crop control, as provided for in the Cotton and Tobacco Acts, and the voluntary reduction of soil-depleting acreage, which was the purpose behind the Soil Conservation Act. "It seems a dead certainty that is going to be a lot of litigation in the courts before the meaning of some of the more involved clauses is ade legally clear. However, one tVmg is bill is designed extend sweeping governmental gulation and control over production and prices of the four (five) principal farm cotton, (rice), and tobacco.

The Sec- tary of Agriculture is authorized to establish a national acreage allotment for each crop; to allowr cooper farmers loans on crops ei prices fall below the parity lev- and, under certain restrictions, to compulsory marketing quotas, whenever the national of crop exceeds a specified level. say that the law starts its under a cloud is simply to state a fact. It was received very ecollv by almost all farm organizations, and a number of granges went on record in flat opposition. Its constitutionality is far from sure. The overwhelming majority of econ- om'sts regard it as something of a monstrosity.

Even its sponsors, with few exceptions, ire unenthusi- bill is frankly a compro- designed to achieve the next- ber of members, when the time came to vote, HAD NOT EVEN SEEN A OF THE TEXT, the supply being inadequate. And it passed the Senate, T)(y to 31, after only three days of consideration on the Thus are laws made under the raw deal regime, boxing the compa- the ideals and practices that have it ade America great, and setting up governmental policies variance from those under which we have heretofore existed. The base and frame work upon which the super-structure of the law is built is the fixing of marketing quota? on the five major farm products beyond which the farmer may not go without suffering prohibitive penalties. As a purely face-saving gesture for the administration, the farmers to be directly affected by the law (but none of thc. millions of tax- pavers whose taxes will be taken, without their representation at the ballot box, to help pay administrative costs, benefits, losses, etc.) were called upon to vote on whether or not thev would accept this marketing control feature of the act.

With it laboriously explained to the cotton farmers that who refused to comply stood- to lose all his soil conservation payments, (some already earned and due them) his cotton price adjustment payments, and the opportunity to obtain a loan on the marketing for his 1938 nroduction, it was not to be unexpected that, trapped in such a dilemma, the farmers would vote overwhelmingly for the quota limitation. Such an election is a travesty on i free last recourse revolution of a free people. Whatever good or evil may come of its attempted enforcement, the deplorable thing about it is that agriculture, the basic industry, the thing that has made America great, and the last citadel of Democracy, aas had its veins opened to an injection of the virus of communism. While the law stands, in the conduct of the own business, utilization of his own property and marketing his own surplus production cannot exist Kail in line! Not yours to reason why! Yours but ta obey your orders from Washington! It is as important to save for utilization the products of the form as it is to produce them in the first place.

Public aware of the need for safe driving was given by the National Safety Council as the prob able reason for the marked decline in traffic fatalities that has occurred since Novermber, 1937. The Council gives the press of the nation a large measure of credit for creating this Newspapers and magazines have joined whole-heartedly in the effort of public safety agencies and organizations such as the American Legion and Parent-Teacher groups, to cuu down highway slaughter.
