(Copyright, 1932, NEA Service, Inc.) Rioux City, Ia., Sept. 8—The busi- ness communities in Sioux City, Omaha and other cities in the corn belt are watching the farmers’ strike with a tremendous amount of inter- est—and, on the whole, with a good deal of sympathy. The prosperity of these cities, in the first place, stands or falls largely with the prosperity of the farmers, and today the farmers are anything but prosperous. But that is not the only reason for the interest with which they look on. Sioux City, like other cities in the area, is beginning to get an inkling of the tremendous amount of power which lies in the farmers’ hands—if the farmers ever discover just how to use it. And one or two things have happened since the strike began to indicate that at least a few of the farmers are glimpsing some of the Possibilities. Recently @ creditor foreclosed a mortgage which he held on the live- stock of an Iowa farmer living near here. The stock was to be sold at auction to satisfy the claim. A group of blue-denimed farmers on one of the strike picket lines got to talking things over on the morning of the auction. They decided that it was too bad for George to lose his livestock. He was a capable, business- like farmer, overwhelmed by’ condi- tions not in his control. The loss would ruin him. So they took up a collection. Money isn’t plentiful in the picket lines. The men raised just $11.75. But they took the sum, small as it was, and a sizable group set out for the scene of the auction. Having reached it, they took up strategic positions. They gave the as- sembled buyers very definitely to un- derstand that it would not be healthy for anyone to bid against the men from the picket line. Then, as the auctioneer began his patter, the farm- ers put in their bids. They bid one at a time—50 cents for a good cow, & dollar for a thick-lipped draft horse, and soon. There were no other bids. The auctioneer had nothing to do but knock the animals down to them. The upshot was that George's en- tire herd of livestock was sold to the group from the picket line for exactly $11.75, And, having bought tbe ani- mals, the men calmly took George aside and gave hay a back to him. * Some of the leaders of the farm strike have drafted for consideration @ plan whereby the striking farmers would not only withhold their pro- duce from the market in order to control the price, but under which they also would strike hard blows at any man or group of men who stood out against them. Under this plan a boycott commit~ tee of farmers would be chosen to in- vestigate all cases of action against striking farmers. If, for instance, 2 bank should eon) gre s pro- ceedings against a farmer, com= mittee would look into the matter. If it found any reason to believe that the farmer was being dealt with harshly, they would recommend & boycott. Then every farmer in the strike would boycott the bank, the lawyer and everyéne connected with the bringing of the foreclosure proceed- ing The same thing would apply to any other creditor who got unduly impa- tient. ‘There is no question but that the farmers are aroused. In talking with them I heard, over and over again, the expression, “Well, we haven't got anything to lose, so—.” Regardless of the outcome, the strike is # symp- tom of a profound unrest. The farm- ers have got to the point where they want to raise hell instead of corn. A Sioux City business man the other day remarked that the strike was largely the work of radicals. “None of the established, conserva- tive, prosperous farmers are in on it, he said. The man he was talking to, an- other Sioux City business man, re- plied: “The only trouble is that | > there aren’t any established, conserv- ative, prosperous farmers left around > here any more.” + * A closeup picture of the financial problems of the farmers was given me by George Ashford, president of the Security State bank in the little town of Homer, Neb., which is near here. Ashford can tell you about the, grievances of the farmers as @ class, Sitting in his little office in Homer he has been watching a steady de- cline in agriculture for years, and it has made him profoundly discour- “Unless there's some sort of @ change,” he says, “I don’t know where the farmers are going to get off at at all. There’s lots and lots of farm land between here and Sioux City that’s not making enough to pay taxes. And when, on top of that, the farmer has his land mortgaged—and most of them have—it's not hard to figure out what he’s up against. “When a man gets a mortgage it’s an indication that he has no reserve, and if he has no reserve it’s just a case of what the insurance companies decide to do. The big insurance com- panies, you know, hold just about all of the farm paper around here. “Eighty per cent of the farm land around here is mortgaged. Between 50 and 60 per cent of the men whose land is mortgaged cannot meet their payments. far, have been very fair about fore- closing on these men, because it’s to their own interest. They don’t want the land at any price. If I'm a farmer, and I've kept up my interest and tax payments for 20 years, and then fall down for two or three years, they'll figure the land is better in my hands than in theirs, and they'll hold off and give me a chance. ** * “But. conditions are bad—so bad they could hardly be any worse. Here's an example: “There's a man near here who has | d; rented some farm land from me. He's renting it at $7:50 an acre, and he hhas 50 acres of barley. He's getting about 30 bushels to the acre, and bar- Jey right now is selling for 15 cents a The loan companies, s0 | d; bushel. Figure it out. His income will be just $4.50 an acre. And, by the way, the taxes on that land run around $2.25 an acre. “All right he can’t pay. So we do the usual thing; I arrange to take two-fifths of his crop instead of rent money. So I get 12 bushels of barley Per acre—$1.80. Now suppose I had ieee on that land. Where'd I “The other night at one of our meetings a man got up to make a speech about the farm strike, and he was actually in tears. That man re- clamied 2,000 acres of swamp land and turned it into first rate farm land. He had faith in agriculture, he had faith in America. He gave his life for that land—got up at 4 in the morning and worked until 8 at night, every day, to turn it into a good farm. Se ata foreclosing on him to- lay.” News of the government's. recom- mended 60-day moratorium on fore- closures was received with pleasure here, but it brought little real hope, since the corn belt's trouble is too deep to be cured in 60 days, es 8 &% Ashford is not sure just what the farm strike is going to lead to. In some ways it dismays him. But he couldn't see anything else to do. He says neither the state nor federal gov- ernment has kept its promises to the farmers. * “T've lived here all my life, and I have never seen anything bordering on anarchy,” he says. “But the other night I went down the road and I saw 500 or so of the best farmers in this county taking the law into their own “Now, that isn't the thing to do. But look. Suppose a man comes into my office here and starts abusing me and calling me a—well, a name no man’d stand for. It won't be the thing for me to do, but I'll get up and fight him. “That's the way it is with these farmers. They've been forced to fight.” Conduct Business Conference Here Sales representatives and managers from six states met at the Prince hotel here Wednesda yfor a confer- hotel here Wednesday for a confer- sas City, president of Luzier Labora- tories, Inc. Thirty representatives of the com- pany were present. Luzier came to Bismarck to confer with his employees in the northwest and to investigate the possibilities for establishing: a branch laboratory in North Dakota. He said the economic outlook was brighter in North Dakota than in most states visited by him in & nationwide tour. He indicated that, if a branch laboratory were es- tablished in North Dakota, it prob- ably would be set up here. * Luzier will return to Bismarck later before deciding the matter. Two banquets were given for the visitors, one for sales representatives and one for state managers, States represented at the meeting were North and South Dakota, Mon- — Wyoming, Idaho and Washing- Luzier, who is traveling by Airplane, left here for Maine.

DEPUTY SHERIFF IS DENIED PROTECTION | OF WORKMEN'S LAW High Court Divides on Question Presented on Appeal From Cass County Peter McArthur, Fargo, Cass coun- ty deputy sheriff, is not entitled to workmen’s compensation for injuries received when “he was shot.as he pur- sued a robber across the ‘state line into Minnesota, the North Dakota su- Preme court ruled Thursday by a three-to-two decision. Justices W. L. Nuessle, A. G. Burr, ang John Burke signed the majority decision while Chief Justice A. M. Christianson and L. EB. Birdzell dis- sented, The court reversed the action of Judge A, T. Cole in Cass county dis- trict court overruling a demurrer of the workmen's compensation bureau, which had denied the claim. McArthur, in December, 1930, at- tempted to arrest a man who had robbed a Fargo store. The robber fled across the Red river into Minne- sota, with the deputy sheriff in pur- suit. McArthur sought the assistance of Minnesota officers and while aid- ing them in apprehending the man was shot and seriously injured. Cass county had complied with the requirements of the workmen's com- pensation act, but there was no spe- cial contract for extra-territorial coverage. The supreme court held that “where there is no express contract providing for extra-territorial cover- age on appointive peace officer of a county receiving injuries outside the state of North Dakota in the course of his employment is not entitled to compensation on account of his in- juries” under the workmen’s compen- sation act. Justice Christianson, in his dissent- ing opinion, sald “it seems that an officer who, in the conscientious dis- charge of his duties, continues to fol- low an offender against the laws of this state, whom he is seeking to ap- prehend, into an adjoining state, is pursuing other than devitating from or abandoning his line of duty.” Justice Birdzell said he was of the opinion that “when @ premium is fixed and insurance effected, based upon the entire compensation or pay- roll, existing and anticipated, there is a previous contract for insurance pro- tection for employes while doing work outside the state which 1s mere- ly incidental to an employment with- in the state.” ————_. f Ring Lost for 26 | | Years Recovered | ° (Tribune Special Service) Garden, Mich., Sept. 8—A gold engagement ring which she lost nearly 25 years ago on a farm near here has been sent. on its way to Mrs. Axel Peterson, wife of a farmer near Almont, N.

Dak. i Sept. 7, 1932, | Editor, Tribune: As an interested reader of your paper for a couple of years, I have read with appreciation your editorial in Saturday’s Tribune about the con- structive changes we would expect in the state government after the elec- tion in November. It seems to me that is really the way things should be viewed. After all, the only reason we have elections and state offices is that we cannot very well do everything successfully as individuals or corporations; we have to get together on letting some trustworthy employes take care of the work that is to be done for the bene- jfit of everybody. That means we need a number of them, not too many and not too few, ;and it would be something of an in- justice to have a wholesale displace- ment, especially when it comes to married men. There are few open- ings at this time and a reduction of salary would much more sensibly take care of the budget balancing. But, instead of making a thumb rule cut of 20 percent for all, the taxation principle ought to be fol- lowed; that is, the percentage cut should be applied to the surplus that remains, when the deduction for the family’s living expenses has been made, varying with the number of family members to be supported. And then the percentage could be increased considerably, for instance, up to 50 percent. A family man on $2,000 might get no cut; a single man of $1,500, with $1,000 deduction, a cut of $500; a family man of $3,000 a cut equal to $500; and—some cut!—a sin- gle man making $3,000 cut with $1,- 000. In this emergency that would be a better distribution of the burden; and when prosperity returns we reverse the process. There also seems to be considerable difference as to working conditions in the different departments. Some peo- ple have to work 12 hours, and that in a time of overproduction of goods and people! Yes, a lot of things there are to be straightened out. And last but not least, let it come to an end with this being on the “payroll,” contributions to “campaign funds,” and the talked-of “cleanups.” ‘What the state employes needs is self respect, fair working conditions and a reasonable salary and he will keep on with enthusiasm in his work and respect for his institution, caring little whether political parties have one or the other label. The principles of Abraham Lincoln, of Woodrow Wilson and of our pres- ent-day public spirited leaders appeal to the typical state employe. And when at times it looks like the only democratic spirit that enters the mind of the thinking man today, is the kind you feel when Will Rogers is around, then we underestimate the state employe. I am one myself—but now we underestimate Will Rogers’ capacity. “iad T. HAVIG. Lake Baikal, in Siberia, is said to be the deepest fresh-water lake in the world.
