VINDICATOR AND REPUBLICAN, ESTHERVILLE, IOWA, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1932 FARMERS' FORUM Open for Dtjcufffoa of Topics of Special or Selected THE FARMER IN A CHANGING WORLD By A. W. BAIRD Recent letters received show that these letters to the Vindicator and Republican arc read over a wide extent of territory. Some say that "you do not hit them hard enough." One says, "Why don't you give them Hell?" oPor this last there are two very good reasons. First, the writer has no hell to give anyone.

The other is that he believes that those responsible for our economic trouble have now about all the hell they need. any than pr group of men can view, unmoved, the financial wrecks, the foreclosures, the ruined homes, the broken families, the suicides and crime that has swept this country In recent years, he or they may de. serve condemnation to the lowest dungeon In hell, reeking with souls of the damned of all ages. But it Is not for me to pronounce punish, ment on them. I would save them If I could.

On Aug. 31, I went to Estherville to hear Mr. Reno, the Farm Union leader speak. He was not there. This was a disappolnt- mnt to me.

The men who did speak, said they were not In favor of picketing. That was pleasing to me. There ceemed to be no great number of farmers in the crowd This was very pleasing as It showed that not very great number of far. mere had yet been swept off their feet by the Holiday movement, have no right or desire to question the sincerity of the men who spoke there or their followers. I do have the right to question the honesty and the loyalty of the sintigators of the movement, and do so without reserve.

It is incipient rebel lion and a flame oncestarted that might be hard to extinguish. The instigators are steeped in selfish ness and care nothing for the harm they may do to the farming districts. The twelve years now past should show to all if this thing wins the farmers will lose, if It fails, the farmers will win. Cost of producton and orderly marketing are bogy words, coined by selfish and desperate men. Take the milk situation.

It may well be that the price paid the producers is below the cost of production, and it may be that there Is too wide a spread between the price paid the produc ers and that chargd the consumer by the distributors. Is not the rem cdy for the producers to establish their own distributing plants? They might In that way receive more for their milk and lower the cost to the consumer. Their first duty Is to lower the cost of production that is the plain duty of all our food producers. That is what being done despite the efforts of those In control Land has been sold for less than $30 per acre. Land Is being rented for less than $4 per acre and for one third of the crop.

This is hard for the landlords. They will suffer by It. No Just man win rejoice In their loss. This is all the result of our Agricultural leaders teaching things that are not true about the farm, never were true High land prices and high rents have not only raised the cost of production, but they have increased production and lowered con sumption. Thousands are unem ployed at their regular employment they have become food producers, they are no longer our customers but they are our competitors.

Matured supplies of food grains are now burdensome and a large corn crop is now maturing In the fields, Revolution is in the air. The Nobles of Russia after more than a nun dred years of unheeded warning, were suddenly swept away. A des. pot In Italy has suddenly ratsed the farmers of Italy and placed them In better homes. Now the Irish Free State refuses to longer pay the land annuities to England Their demands are Just.

Our remedy looks better to the men we send to represent us in the legislature. In this campaign the candidates to date have been as silent as the 'tomb.

V-R SWAN LAKE NEWS FELIX ftlCSENBCRG The man in the lunch car rubbed his eyes, shuffled over to a small cupboard, took out a heavy china mug without a handle. He dashed some white fluid into this from a can with a spout, and placed the cup under the tap of the urn, running It full. Suddenly John realized that he had on nn old suit, saved for evening study, that he had left his room without cent in his pocket. Even his vest in which he sometimes carried change, and his watch, had been left behind.

"Wodelyouhavc, doughnuts or pie?" the man asked. Hold on." John hastened to warn. "I'm flat. Haven't a red cent with me. Thought so." interrupted the man behind the counter, "but seen yer so damn honest, have a couple sinkers." and he passed the rings to John.

Thanks," John munched the doughnuts ravenously. 'Don't mention it. Keep the change." The sleepy cor man settled comfortably on his perch. 'I'll send the money down tomorrow." Send it? Rats! I took this Job at supper, and I'm quittln' at breakfast. The guy what owns it's married an' home sleepin' wid his wife.

Damn glad you wan'nt no stick-up. Git the hell out o' here and let me sleep." John Breen again went into the wet. He looked at the river. A shudder of terror came over him. He turned and ran westward, the warmth of the coffee gradually wearing away.

But as he chilled he knew he had to keep going, he caught his second wind, he knew that he was heading for the dorms. It was ten o'clock in the forc- nocn when the grayhaircd dormitory maid entered John Breen's roo.n. Damp clothing hung over the chair near his bed, and John in fevered slumber, tossed in his blankets. He had returned at daybreak and throwing off his clothes and rolled into his bed half dead with exhaustion. Harboard on his way to an early seminar, stopped to investigate.

John's door was open, the maid war- talking volubly, the hall superin. bulk of a man. bent over the bed. i "Bad?" asked Harboard anxiously. Fever and exhaustion." The doctor, a famous football coach, turned to Harboard.

adding with non-professional candor, "I can't make him out." He held a stethoscope In his hands. "Heart and lungs O. K. Know him?" the doctor asked. "Well; we nrc rather good friends He was all right last night, "Here you mean?" the Doctor tapped his forehead knowingly.

Few of 'em ever crack," he added dryly. "What about him. doctor?" Harboard asked anxiously. The maid was tucking John in, and one of the hall attendants came up with some warm milk. "Needs vest, I should say; change.

But, what a body! Best all 'round specimen I've ccme across in a long while. Nothing overdone; smooth as silk. What Is he, anyway?" "Been a scrapper. A regular knock-'em-out." Harboard lowered his voice. "Something fine about the boy though.

He has ideas that's the trouble with him. We were talking last night. I never realized his state, thank God. it's no worse. Anyhow he's got to quit for a The doctor looked about.

"Right. Complete rest and a change. Get him out of this." He nodded force fully at the room and its furnishings. "Have you Mr. Van Horn's address?" Harboard asked of the su pcrintciulent.

"I think he had bet ter be advised." Josephine Lambert was enjoying one ol her periods of retirement times when she sought seclusion, times when she took herself with elaborate seriousness. It was past ten in the evening; she was absorbed in the life of Marie in contrast with her hair, gave her an -Ur of study, a bare knee peeped from the white folds of her gown, a pink, roguish knee. Her feet were doubled under her. Josephine was reading the strange will of Marie Bashkirteff. "I do not think I have ever had any base, interested, depraved thpughte.

It Is flarcly than one says this, but In my case it Is true On the night Josephine was reading Bashklrtscff, and later on lei surely preparing for bed, ohn Breen was coming to the break away with his overload of study. Josephine lingered in the warmth of her bedroom, a fire burning In the grate. Aunt Wen had gone to bed but Josephine was very much awake. She had taken John Breen's photograph from Van Horn's room, the one in short fighting trunks, his right fist guarding his abdomen, his left advanced, his eyes straight, a stiff pompadour rising from his forehead. John had a look of the most insolent confidence on his determined face.
