Viewed over a period of years, the new farm scheme offers oppo: competition by neighbor against neighbor. It gives farmers the fitst ib-| real opportunity to be sensible jin din’ state Member of Audit Bureau of Circulation Member of The Associated Press ‘The Associated Press is exclusively entitled to the use for republication of all news dispatches credited to it or not otherwise credited in this newspaper and also the local news of spontaneous origin published herein.

Paid to Be Sensible Discussing the government's hog- reducing campaign, the Farmers’ Un- jon Herald, official organ of the Farmers Union, makes some observa- tions which contain more than a lit- tle truth, yet the average secular newspaper would hardly dare to espouse them. After outlining the situation which brought the pig-slaughtering move- ment into being, the publication says: “To meet this situation, one which unorganized farmers could not meet and one which organ- ized farmers could not help, be- cause there are so many foolish and stubborn farmers who will not cooperate, the government ‘again had to come to the rescue with a pork reduction program. And the government again had to adopt 2 program of paying you te be sensible and sane. “... And when the farmers learned that they could get nine cents per pound for a 25-lb. pig, and a quarter less per hundred for each five pounds above 25 Pounds, they, the farmers, nearly broke their fool necks to get these pigs to market. They acted like the end of the world had come and only a few days were given in which to prepare for heaven. On every train and by every toward they could be slaughtered. “An embargo was the natural Tesult, and a more orderly system of sending in the pigs organized. A shipping association must now get a permit to ship so as to bring order and system into this grand parade of patriotic pigs, as they @re now jokingly called.” In a discussion of the actions of cotton farmers, who increased their acreage despite a huge surplus, we note this expression: “the farmers foolishly and ignorantly planted four million more acres of cotton than were planted last year.” Strong terms, those, which most Newspapers would hesitate to use, even though it might suspect that farmers, like bankers, lawyers, Plumbers and editors, may be “foolish and stubborn” on occasion. The significant thing about this declaration, however, is the phrase “paying you to be sensible.” In ef- fect it is true, although the farmer can hardly be condemned for not do- ing voluntarily what the government now is inducing him to do by means of @ subsidy. For a prize example we might cite the North Dakota farmer whd, at the Tequest of the Hoover farm adminis- tration, reduced his acreage. He now Pays the penalty for that cooperation in a reduced allotment, since the re- duction was effected during the period which now is made the base for dis-| tribution of wheat benefits, The simple fact, which cannot be ignored, is that every farmer finds in his neighbor a fierce competitor. ‘They have been engaged in a cut- throat fight to see which could pro- duce most cheaply, with the result that only the very ablest or most fortunate have managed to escape a deficit. We have heard much talk by po- many important matters with which they are vitally concerned. Unsuspected Blessing | Legalization of beer well in advance of the return of strong drink through repeal of the 18th amendment may well prove to be one of the greatest blessings this country has ever known. All available statistics show that John Barleycorn has been pretty much ignored while his much weak- er and milder cousin holds the center of the stage. Whether we like it or not, the American people now seem to be beer conscious more than ever before and this fact may divert their attention from whiskey and other liquors once they become legal, which now seems to be only a matter of months. Supporters of sobriety will applaud rather than condemn the wide-spread drinking of beer if they take the view that the American people are going to drink something and that some- thing should be the mildest beverage which will content them. ‘The manner in which beer-drinking has become popular is evidenced by consumption figures, compiled by the United States Brewers association. In April the figure was 1,422,539 barrels. May saw this rise to 2,123,- 649; June to 2,525,244 and July to 2,- 687,077, a total of 8,758,509. At the same time hard liquor has been dealt a severe blow and the 22 ‘states in which beer had been legal- ized have collected $5,803,209 in rev- enue. During this period the federal government had collected $54,119,739. No estimate is made of local taxes Paid to counties, cities or villages.

Knowledge of what hardly can be taken as anything but a delibe- rate policy in the Japanese press to inflame distrust and hostility towatds the United States in the Japan Public has not impressed us favorably. Our correspondents in Japan take it seriously, as the dispatch of Sept. 3 Published in Monday's Tribune in- dicates. The fact that the present Japanese government is able to restrain irres- Ponsible inflammatory publicity, and has failed conspicuously to do 50, while officially declaring its deter- mination to foster friendly relations, cannot be ignored by either the gov- ernment or people of the United States. The explanation given unof- ficially is not assuring. We can make reasonable allowance for the urgén- cles of domestic politics, but we can- not believe that it is necessary to fos- ter widespread hatred and fear o! United States in order to induce Japanese legislature to vote or the Public to approve the army and navy appropriations sought by them. But even though the present Ja- Panese government may think this course of action is expedient, we in America must resent it as unfriendly and regard it with concern as exhibit- ing a recklessness and lack of good faith which promises serious consequ- ences in the future relations of the two countries. Official assurances, like that of War Minister Araki, must be heavily discounted against a back- ground of unfriendly propaganda ac- tively carried on for months in Japan, and the result must be to convince us eventually that Japanese diplomacy is unreliable. With this conviction the foundations of friendly relations will disappear. ‘This will bring about a transforma: tion of American policy which, hor ever tactless it has been in some tained and that, as War Minister Ara- ki has just said, war between us would be both unnecessary and deplorable It would be both, but its prevention must depend as much upon the senti- ment and conduct of the Japanese as liticians about unity of interest, but | Ward it has been difficult to demonstrate this as an actual fact.

Address Dr. IT IS HIGH TIME TO REGULATE THE SPECIALISTS ‘The laws regulating the practice of medicine in various states or pro- vinces seem at first sight absurdly heterogeneous, but when you consider the petty annoyances and indignities these trick laws impose upon the re- putable doctor who seeks to move from one place to another, and how little they bother the quacks who ride circuit, you perceive that the chief purpose of these laws is graft and patronage. They make a large num- ber of soft jobs for the politicians to bestow upon their friends. And the “fees” exacted from physicians who seek a license to practice are just 50 much velvet. , In the first’ place, one may rea- sonably ask, where do all these can- didates for license to practice their degrees, if not from institutions sponsored or authorized by the state to grant such degrees? And if the state authorizes a college or univer- sity to grant the degree of Doctor of Medicine, is it not a reflection on the honor of the college or university granting the degree when the state insists on re-examining the graduate to see whether he is fit to have the degree of Doctor of Medicine? Of course this isn’t the reason for the examination to which the physician is subjected when he applies for his license. GRAFT is the reason. He must put down a hundred berries for the boys to play with. It is a great scheme, for the politicians. The state ought to be ashamed to countenance it. Another odd thing in reference to the regulation of the practice of me- dicine is that the public has absolu- tely no assurance, and indeed the State or province has no check what- ever on the capacity or the qualifica- tions of any doctor who chooses to hold himself out as a specialist or a surgeon. Once the doctor has laid down his hundred simoleons and aes ae" his examination, what the decide that, and quite legally the moment he receives his license he may begin the practice of any spe- cialty he elects.
