' With living costs at the highest point since the close of the Civil War, and with the general public indulging in a prolonged period of reckless extravagance; the time has eome when sober-minded men must stop thinking in general terms. They must consider the present situation from the standpoint of personal and individual responsi _ bility, if the dangers in the near future that should be readily apparent to every. one, are to be avoided. “Social unrest arises from many causes, but mostly I think from the commonplace fact that it takes about everything the average man can make to keep pace with the outgo. .This unrest, which, is provocative of fabor troubles, the slacking up of individual production, care- lessness about money spending, and many other evils, has, 1 hope, reached its high point. It is easily evident that §t cannot spread very much further without great danger to the whole country. “It has been habitual te associate unrest more with the laboring clasces than with other classes of the public. Nowhere in the United States is unrest mere acute or-bitter feeling more prevalent than among the agricultural popu- lation in the Ninth Reserve district. Since the beginning of the war farmers Bave been under heavy pressure to attain the highest possible production. They have been enjoying the highest prices that have ever prevailed in the Northwest, yet there is widespread dissatisfaction und complaint. “Part of this is due to vicious propaganda based on false economics which has been spread through all the farming districts. The farmera have been de- tiberately misled and have not had the benefit of corrective educdtion at the hands of those.competent to tell the truth about the econoniic ,problems that are serious to the agricultural class. Part of this is due to the feeling of sur- poise and bitterness upon realizing that while enjoying high prices, their an- tieipated profits have beem cut by rising costs. The two influences combined | Bave made many thowsands of men who have ordinarily been clear and level headed in their views, eritical and antagonistic toward their governmert. and Witterly hostile toward business interests at the larger centers which they have | ‘een led to believe are antagonistie toward them. A division between country .and city would be one of the most unfortunate things that could happen. ' “Those who have the eonfidence of the farmers can do the latter a genuine | service and perform a service to thr country in annihilating the false doc- e that has been spread about. The causes of complaint should be analyzed ‘and identified, and if they rest mpon injustice these should be ruthlessly elim- fmeted. To a certain estent, the farmer, like every one else, must work out his salvation, but the community, as a whole, is seriously at fault, if it per- mits the farmer, because of his isolation and his lack of close contact with other sections of the publie, to become the victim of either those who are radi-, oal progandists for prafit er those who are propagandists because they hate their government, and who are seceking to overturn the very foundation stones mpen which the truest and best demoeracy in the world is founded. “The general rublic do not recognize the significance of the warning signs that are apparent In present conditions. ther> is no way of avoiding a situa- tiym which ‘undoubtadly contains elements which simply invite disaster.” \ . i t render as a good turn their valuable assistance as pages in both houses of this convention. “And be it further resolved, the house of bishops concurring, that the general convention commends the Boy Scouts of America agency in welfare work among boys.” ® She—What does all this mean about the foreign exchange dear?
