PASS LAWS FOR AID OF FARMERS Present Session of Legislature | Declared to Have Done | Much HAVE RURAL CREDITS BILL | | St. Paul, April 23.—The Min-/| nesota legislature which has just adjourned sine die has given more | consideration to farm legislation thay any previous sion in the annals of | the state, L. E. Potter, president, Min-| nesota Farm Bureau Federation, said | today. | The necessity of farmer legislation was brought to the attention of tne | legislators through action of the Farm; Bureau, when that organization called | for a referendum on the passage of! certain bills Mr. Potter said. This ref- | erendum showed the legislators the! wants of farmers, he said, and result- | ed in the passage of the rural credits | law; the co-operative marketing law: | the open market bill; the short selling | bill; the passage of a joint resolution by the Minnesota house and senate on | Minnesota grain grades, he continued. | With the passage of these laws, ; | Minnesota farmers will be in a better | position to cope with their financial | difficulties through the better market- ing facilities offered them, which will | sumer, Mr. Potter declared. i The rural credits bill permits thls; question to be placed before the voters of the state to decide whether the con- stitution should be so amended. It! would authorize the extending of, the credit of the state to the farmers. The details of this law would. necessarily be prepared by the legislatures fol- lowing the passage of the amendment. A similar law is in effect in South Dakota. | The co-operative law permits the} farmers co-operative organizations to| federate with similar organizations and enterprises of other states. Open Market Law. The open market law, which is mod eled after the Nebraska law, declares boards or trades or grain exchanges to be public markets, and thereby sub- ject to state regulation, It also pro- vides that these boards of trades shall co-operative organizations. The law on short selling is design- ed to prevent buying and selling ‘of wheat which does not exist and to pro- tect legitimate hedging. A concurrent resolution also was adopted requiring the state boards of grain appeals to establish as_‘Minne- sota Grades” of grain substantially the grades which were effective immed!- ately prior to the adoption of the fed- eral standards. Grain Grade Action. Representatives of North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota and: Wiscon- sin, Mr. Potter said, will be heard be- fore the officers of the United States Departmgnt of Agriculture on grain grades. Mr. Potter will accompany a! Joint delegation of the Minnesota house and senate, which is expected to appear before these officials, Other laws which in some manner affect the farmer were also passed by the present legislature and which will materially affect the tiller of the soil |in his economic problems, Mr. Potter said.

The World’s Verdict on Harding’s Message Disappointment in Berlin and cordial approval in London and Paris are among the significant foreign reactions to the President’s first message to Congress. At home a majority of the papers applaud his program, yet a few -sharply dissentiént voices are heard. ; , ' The leading article in THE LITERARY DIGEST for this week, April 23d, quotes a large variety of opinions from the press of the country on this ques- tien. The New York World regards the peace plan outlined by Mr. Harding as “a miserable makeshift that no President would ever adopt of his own initiative,” and the Louisville Courier-Journal characterizes his proposed “as- sociation of nations for world peace” as a “toothless whatnot, with no power to promote peace except to talk about it,” while the Philadelphia Ledger con- siders it “woefully incomplete” and “a negative rather than a positive policy.” On the other hand the Providence Journal praises the message for its “pre- ,.vailing note of lofty Americanism,” the Cleveland Plain Dealer avers that “oranting the Prestdent’s point of view, which appears also to be the point of view of the majority of Americans, his program can not well be challen- ged,” and the St. Louis Globe-Democrat feels that he “has opened a new. way to the solution of the problem of our international relations.” Among the other deeply interesting articles in this issue are: A NEW TAX A Summary of Varying Views on the Proposed Sales Tax Designed to “Lift the Burden of War-taxation from the shoulders of the American People.” An American Report on the Irish || Full-Page Colored Map Showing Terror Countries in the League of Nations To Enforce Prohibition in New York || Our Climatic Travels England’s “Industrial Revolution” Why Glue is Gluey Sleepless German Propaganda Why Tax Alcohol? “Saving The Pieces“ in Austria Swat. the Spring Fly If Soviet Russia Collapsed— Burroughs Launches a Shaft in Pass- Our Literary “Rebirth” Doubted ing A Painter’s View of House and Wil- || A Small-Town War Memorial son Cardinal Gibbons as “Interpreter of Saving Dollars and Risking Souls Catholicism” : Colonel Harvey, “Ambassador Extra- || The Bible in “American” ’ ordinary” Lawyers Still Make Our Laws in Con- “They Used To Call It The Front” gress A Car That Will Not Telescope A Yankee Toy that Jars the British Best of the Current Poetry, Topics of the Day Many Illustrations, Mans, and Humorous Cartoons , : Hon.
