PAGE EIGHT THE DAILY MICHIGAN. THURSDAY, JANUARY 18,1934. American Legion Accuses Gen. Hines Of Trick Statement WASHINGTON, Jan. American Legion today sought further legislative sup- tort for a revised program in aid of veterans and at the same time characterized an interpretation placed on it by the veterans' bureau as a "trick statement." This assertion, in a special Le- ftlon bulletin, followed an estimate by General Frank T.

Hines, Veterans' administrator, that the proposed program would Cost around $113,200,000 a year, A. Hayes, Legion national commander, asserted Earlier "it cannot cost more than $80,000,000 a year." The revised Legion program, fealling for Increased payments And liberalized hospita'ization, has been assured support of Senate Republicans. It was re- fritroduced as a new measure Wednesday by Senator Reed tTnity Club Speaker Says 'Back Roosevelt, or (Continued from Page 1) 'World's "At that time We were having an almost unprecedented wave of prosperity," the speaker continued.

Results of Crash Mr. Vivian then outlined the Jesuits of the sudden crash of 1629, what effects it has had on Banks, business concerns, wage- learners, farmers, etc. "Why is our entire economic 'jihd social structure all topsy- ttirvy? Have we reached bottom; when will we come back to normal? I'll discuss one or two factors that enter into the sub- Jfcst.

"Since 1924 payrolls of the Industrial east and income of the Agricultural west add up to about figures and the parallel them has never been ittore evident tha'n during the four years of the dspression. There are good reasons for this relationship. Each represents an indispensibl'8 market for the other. But this market in both cases, depends upon an ability to exchange products. If thsre is a high degree of unemployment this ability to exchange products is diminished to that ex- agricultural prices are to.

Record of the Two "Industrial payrolls reflect the State, of the whole urban tha.t sort of solution. If, linn preferred to take (he harder course of attempting by conscious direction to help farmers to sUiy on their farms and adjust the agricultural plant to ihe changed domestic and world situation. It has chosen, that course not only for relief of agriculture, but for the sake of achieving a balance between the city and country, between the major producing groups.

"We kniow that the Agricultural Adjustment Administration act will have to be changed some from time to time and we as the acutcncss of the present situation passes we can formulate a long-time program for agriculture, bas3d on spund science, economics uml sound sociology." In closing Mr. Vivian dwelt upon the "little things," of how the American people have risen to heights of generosity, kindness and courage, "which have cast a radiance over the years." Verdict in Wells' Case 'Substantial (Continued f-om I'npe 1) granting the plaintiff judgment amounting to $3,500 assessed against the various dsfendants. At this same time, Dr. N. W.

Heysett, Hart physician who performed the operation and was named by Wells as one of the defendants in the original suit, was absolved from all blame and the case against him dismissed. Attorneys for the defendants were W. J. Branstrom, Fremont, and G. Meehan, Hart, while Wells' case was handled by Howard L.

Campbell, Manistee. Hinged on Consent Charging the jury previous to their retirement Wednesday afternoon, Judge Pugsle-y cautioned them that the whole case hinged upon whether Wells gave his consent to the operation freely and willingly or under duress an-d because of threats he claims were made against him by the defendants in the case. Discussing the written consent introduced in evidence, the court said: "This is an important document in connection with this lawsuit. If the plaintiff signed the instrument, knew at the time that he was giving his consent to the operation and did so of his own free will without coercion of other parties then the lawsuit is at an end and the plaintifif cannot recover. The only issue in this Instance is the condition under which the instrument was signed." State Law Noi Judge Pugsh-y the jurors on this point to weigh the evidence of Henry PalmitEr, Frances Hackett, Guy Walker, Dr.

N. W. Heysett and Jesss Spitier against that of William Wells, the plain- tifif, and Mr. and Mrs. Charles Battlo Creek, Mr.

The money was sent to Governor Comstock following his conference in Washington last week with Harry L. Hopkins, WASHINGTON, Jan. there Is one thing that can make Rep.

No Mere 'Gallant Gesture' "Look at Florence Kahn on the House appropriations committee. Do you think that grand, white-haired woman was named to the committee just as a gallant gesture? Not a bit oi it. There is too much work, and she has good, sound common sense they can use in approving the nation's huge expenditures.

"Don't forget Ruth Bryan Owen, who is minister to Denmark. She has a woman's sense human relations, and she is busy mafcing friends for America." Recently Mrs. Norton was in the thick of the fight tha.t resulted in the House adoption of a District of Columbia liquor control plan hailed by "liberals." As chairman of the House district committee, the "mayor of Washing-ton," as Mrs. Norton, is known, participated actively in. the deliberations that sent the approved bill to the Senate, both Houses serving as a legislature for the district in matters of this kind.

Psychology Did It Only once has she- questioned public life as a career. Her brother had died. She was in the midst of a New Jersey campaign. Suddenly she thought, "I belong home with my family." She hurried down to. the party leader, and announced, "I'm washed up." That man was a shrewd psychologist.

He saw a career ahead for this woman who had devoted so much volunteer time to welfare work. He swung- in his chair and 'said: "So you're yellow." Mrs. Norton, gasped.

But there is a difference in the manner in which the adjustment is brought about in agriculture and Industry. Not So Easy when confronted by over-production, can immediately reduce production by the simple expedient of laying off employes. Agriculture, having a production schedule attuned to the srasor.s and to rotations several years long, and having few employes to lay off, cannot act so.

They will continue to produce for the cities as long as possible, but eventually their productive machinery becomes impaired, they use less fertilizer, less careful methods, their yields decline; fertility of soil suffers a drain and many are forced out of commercial farming into, sustenance farming. Then comes a scarcity of food in the- city, a period of high living costs and the cycle is complete.

Hangs on to End "Before the farmer quits producing, he will often get down to accepting a wage for himself and family of as low as two or three cents an hour. He will no longer buy machinery or harness. His standard of living drops. His farm's most precious resource, fertility of the soil, may go down so low it cannot be restored in a lifetime. But he will not quit until literally forced his farm.
