The President Speaks All parts of the west listened with interest Sunday night as President Roosevelt expounded his views on the state of the nation. ‘What they heard will have a sober- ing effect on many who were inclined to follow radical leaders, act as a powerful deterrent to the farm strike which has been called to serve notice on the government that it must do more for agriculture. Some phases of the president’s talk can be considered as @ direct warn- ing against that sort of thing. It could hardly be expected to be popu- lar with him and he made it clear! that it isn’t. Most striking in this respect was his expression of thanks to the people living in the cities for their forbear- ance in not objecting to agricultural processing taxes which have raised— and will continue to raise—the cost of living. ‘The figures he used in connection with that tribute are worthy of note. After stating the population of the country at 120 million, he referred directly to the 60 to 70 million who live in cities, There was no undue emphasis on the fact, but it is barely possible that Mr. Roosevelt wished to call to the attention of his farm constituents that, while they com- prise a large portion of the popula- tion, they are not a majority. ‘There may be food for thought in that, to those farm leaders who hope to inspire the president with fear of political reprisal now. There may have. been a warning that these effervescences are like waves break- ing futilely on the rock of his de- termination. No one knows better than the president that he will not, run for office again until 1936. No knows better than he that condi- tions in 1936, not those of 1933, will determine the chances for his reelec- tion. In his presentation of the national picture, there were more hints of pride in what has been accomplished within the few short months he has been in office than pleas for patient ‘There was adequate emphasis upon | But he did make it clear that he not propose to be swayed by vagrant wind which besets, that his ears are not attuned the voices of those who have re- tly gu;i America. This, coupled with the recent an- nouncement by Secretary Wallace that the government would continue to depend upon its long-time program for agriculture, Presumed to speak for agri-|j~ dications are that it will be a varied and indefinite thing, We may have to try it out before the country can reach a definite conclusion. Such powerful organizations as the American Federation of Labor and the American Legion declared against it only a few weeks ago, but these groups may not have represented the views of all their members. There may be important minorities in each which will applaud the action. There is no question that powerful business interests will support the president. Trade with other nations has been dried up and Russia offers an excellent outlet for many things 00 | which this nation makes, particularly heavy machinery. The market is wide open for America because of the Soviet’s strained relations with 50 Germany, which has been supplying the bulk of Russia’s imports. Also, -{some significance may attach to the fact that Russia's sales to the United States recently have exceeded our sales to her, an unprecedented thing. in our economic history. Still another factor which may not occur to many persons is the fact that Russia's good regard may strengthen our hand in future diplomatic rela- tions in the Far East. Japan rapidly is driving white commerce out of the areas in her sphere of domination. She is creating, by reason of cheap) waterpower and cheaper labor, an economic situation which bears heav- ily upon the other great trading na- tions. Resentments are bound to arlse and such difficulties too fre- quently lead to armed dispute. A rapprochement between Russia and the United States may operate to curb the extension of Japan’s in- fluence, help us fo retain a foothold in other parts of Asia. ‘The world situation has, for a long time, pointed toward the possi- bility of another Russo-Japanese war. This contingency has not been dimin- ished by recent diplomatic quarrels at Moscow and Tokyo and develop- ments in Manchuria. Japanese dislike for America is fairly well known. It is possible that, by making friends with Russia, we are setting up a sort of buffer state in the field of world diplomacy. At the same time, there is no evad- ing the portentous possibilities of Russian recognition from the stand- point of our internal affairs. The patience with which America has withstood the hardships of the last few years shows that our people are not Communists, want nOne of it. Any treaty should definitely bar the Soviet from the promotion of sedi- tion and the launching of propa- ganda campaigns in this country. We are going through a process of evo- lution second only to that which Russia is experiencing and we want no interference from her or any other nation. The Farmer's Dollar A Red River farmer writes the New York Times relative to a stock ship- ment which graphically reflects the plight of the stock raiser under pres- ent conditions. Incidents such as this could be multiplied many times throughout the Missouri Slope area. The Arvilla farmer's plaint may be an old one but here it is: I have 400 acres four miles south of Arvilla, N. D., in the center of the Red River Valley. We had ready for market this fall seventeen head of cattle, which we shipped to South St. Paul, Minn., which is our nearest market. The net after paying freight, storage, feeding en route and commission, for the seven- teen head sold Oct. 5 was $133.81, or $7.87 a head. This is approxi- mately the cost of feeding for two months. Wheat at Arvilla on Qct. 14 was 66 cents a bushel. Every- thing that we have to buy with money is up from 20 to 33 per cent. The inflated dollar is rolling with a “reverse English” spin for the farmer and cattle raiser. Editorial Comment Editorlals printed below show the trend of thought by other editors.
