(Official City, State and County Newspaper) To the Farmers Secretary ‘dine, speaking at Pomona, Fla., has a word of praise for the farmers of the south. By paying increased attention to crop rotation, devel- opment of forage resources, building up of livestock enterprises and better practices in connection with cotton, the southern farmer has progressed far. But the secretary has a wider message than that ‘to deliver, He suggests ways and means for im- proving the condition of agriculture over the whole United States, and his words are 5 Better management of production is one key he ‘offers to success in farming. On the other hand, he admits that we need better marketing and dis- “tributing conditions. Legislation may remedy the ; latter phase, but it is up to the farmer himself to “manage the production end of it. The retary calls the chief problem in the sur- plus question that of merchandising. He u ter provision of facilities for storage and and for obtaining credit. He calls for collective ac- : tion in controlling the stream of supply that flows to the consumer, Any legislative relief for the farmer, he says, must utili farm organizations to be effective. He i thinks the bill providing for a division of cooper- ative marketing in the Department of Agriculture, : which has passed the house, will have a salutary ef- fect on distribution, The secretary favors legislation that will enable the farmers, through their organizations, to help ‘themselves. This is the best form of relief that farmers could have, if the farmers will think. Some of the relief has to come from the mind of the farm- er himself, Jardine is backing the Tincher bill, providing for an appointment of a farm marketing commission. According to this bill seven men would be appointed iby the president. These men would come from the ranks of farm organizations in the federal reserve ‘districts. The twelve federal reserve districts would seat three members each on an advisory council, and this council of 36 would make nominations to the president. But the working out of this plan again depends on the farmers. The legislation is no panacea, but it shows the farmers the way whereby they can help themselves, se An American Philosophy “Americans as a people are by mere external des- tiny fated to be great, but whether our career shail be a great achievement or a great catastrophe, de- pends upon our development of a philosophy,” says _ Prof. Alexander Meikeljohn of the University of : Wisconsin philosophy department, in a brochure just published by the American Association. * “Nothing in human life,” Prof. Meikeljohn con- tinues, “is more terrible than that a man or a group of men should have power which they do not know how to use, should be masters of a situation they cannot comprehend, and today that terror is upon us who are Amercians. I am certain that America has net yet achieved a philosophy, but 1 am almost] ii _as sure that she has one in the making.” Prof. Meikeljohn urges Americans to study and achieve a philosophy which will allow them to settle, “international problems without war, politi - ‘tions without voting and individual differences out a compromise, This particular philosophy ap- pears as visionary and mystifying to most of us as the theory of the fourth dimension. What is it? Prof. Meikeljohn believes that war is an unsatis- factory and unfair way to settle a dispute. He be- lieves that blind and misguided voting leads only to more voting to determine the principles of the first <vote. He believes that compromise essentially Wrong because it docs not seek a just decision but } a satisfactory one—a decision which will be the Jeast obnoxious to all parties concerned. * * Our philosophy today, says Prof. Meikeljohn, is ; _ concerned with words rather than thoughts. He @.! gives as an example the debate between the scien- _ tist and theologist. 5 * The scientist says that the world is millions of ¢ years old, the theologist says six days. However, * adds the fundamentalist, if you consider a day a mil- z lion years, then the Bible and science agree. It is * by such arguments that the main problems of de- = bate are lost and words and interpretations become "fundamental. Such arguments lead men farther | apart, keep them enemies, and fail to offer a solu- tion of any value. Letting the Boy Learn = A physician in New York State wanted to give . his cleven-year-old boy a first-hand picture of what 3 life is in a city. So he handed him enough money « to last three days and put him on a train for Buf- # falo, =. The doctor had faith that his son’s steps would turn in the right direction, and that faith was justi- fied. The boy spent a time in the business district, visiting stores, the banks, riding street cars, asking ic. 2 all kinds of questions. y ye day he spent in an art gallery, went to zoo,“and then to the top of a twenty-three story to get a bird’s-eye view of the thing.

Editorial Comment Syttende Mai (Duluth Herald) ‘The seventeenth of May is to the Norwegians what the Fourth of July is to Americans, and 1814 is to them what 1776 to us. For 1814 saw the end of a struggle for Nor gian freedom that was four centuries olg. During all those years the Norwegians, to whose aspiring souls and stout hearts freedom was the breath of life, were restless under Danish rule. But the climax came when the powers of Europe, led then by Napoleon, in 1810, coolly transferred Norway from Denmark to Sweden, giving this lib- erty-loving nation as a chattel to that Jean Bap- tiste Jules Bernadotte who, the son of an advocate of Pau, rose to be a marshal in the armies of Na- poleon and became king of Sweden as Prince Carl Johan. Against this crowning outrage the Norwegian people united as one man, and the result was that long delayed Norwegian freedom, which was en- joyed in a mainly harmonious union with Sweden until, in 1905, a peaceful arrangement with its neighbor and kindred country gave Norway the ful) independence it now enjoys. Norway is, the mother of Ibsen, Greig, Bjornson. Nansen, Lie and many others known to the litera- ture, art and science of the world. Norway is also the mother of a host of sturdy citizens of this coun- try whose love for the ancestral home land does not impair but strengthens their loyalty to the land of their adoption. The East Views Illinois (New York Times) “They mix their politics in Ilinois. them hard this year. Take the case of The Chicago Tribune. It has steadily been among the most vio- lent opponents of the world court. Well, Senator McKinley was for the court. His Republican rival for the senatorship, Mr. Frank L, Smith, is against it. Whom did The Tribune support? Last Sunday it came out for the friend of the world court, Senator McKinley, . . . “Looking coolly at the whole Republican situation inois, the strong probability emerges that Sen- ator McKinley would have been defeated, no matter what he did. “Senator McKinley lost for a variety of r Doubtless the world court affair was one of them. The Ch 0 Tribune could not undo its work. Friends of the court must frankly concede that Mr. McKinley was injured at home by favoring it. . “It must also be admitted that the outcome of the Illinois primary is something of a blow to the pres- tige of President Coolidge. It can always be as- serted that Senator McKinley’s attitude at Wash- ington toward the world court.killed him politically in Minois.” : From the New York World: “The causes of Senator McKinley’s defeat in the Minois primary were probably varied and numer- ous. The wets of Chicago regarded Mr. McKinley with more hostility than they did Mr. Smith. The discontented farmers contrasted his luke-warmness on farm relief legislation with ex-Gov. Lowden’s zeal. The intense bitterness of factional politics in Il- linois, with the Brundage-Crowe organization fight- ing the Len Small-Lundin group tooth and nail, was influential; Mr. McKinley had opposed Len Small for governor in 1924. “Just what role was played by the world court is- sue it is difficult to say, though it seems likely that the importance of the issue has been exaggerated. The Chicago Tribune, which has fought the world court at every step, supported McKinley. ‘But the fact remains that the world court and Mr. McKin- ley’s strict loyalty to the President were ostensibly the chief issues, and that under the circumstances the administration’s failure to pull Mr. McKinley through is a loss for administration prestige......” From the New York Herald-Tribune: “All in all, it was precisely the kind of a confused situation in which small politicians most delight. While importing Borah, and Reed, and Shipstead to talk about the world court, about which they knew nothing and cared less, these professionals went busily about the work of helping ‘their factional or They mixed asons.
