Probably it is a dim recognition of this fact that has made the bonus sentiment so strong among the vet- erans’ organizations since the war. ‘The demand for the bonus may be as unjustified and selfish as its op- ponents maintain; nevertheless, it arises against this background of war profits, and it is rather hard to per- suade the veteran that it is wrong for him to ask for a few hundred dollars when he knows that the mak- ers of shells and guns were enrich- 00 ed by the hundred million.

Farm Community Banking Not the least interesting of the Present experiments in farm financ- ing is the establishment of farm pro- duction credit associations whereby farmers, with the assistance of the government, will attempt to direct ‘their own financial affairs as a com- munity proposition. In the seventh farm credit district there are 88 of them with 8,995 farm- g0| Work of unparalleled usefulness, If we must go to war, in the future, then we must go; but we are justified in insisting that it be for a prin- ciple, and not for enrichment of the munitions makers. Let the veterans hammer away on this point, in season and out of sea- son, and we shall have a new reason for feeling indebted to them. 1 @ mockery out of every principle of Theory and Practice Recently a questionnaire listing many questions on governmental af- fairs was sent to the editors of the country, asking them to reflect, as well as they could, the attitude of their communities. One of the questions related to the principle of government entering business and the vote on this point was overwhelming. In the opinion of the nation’s editors, 949 out of 100, people would prefer to have the government stick to its own knitting er borrowers and loans on Sept. 15 of $3,878,002, a good start for a set- ‘up which began business during the gear. Now these associations are to join 4n the election of one of the seven directors on the district farm credit board, thus making farm banking a truly democratic affair. ‘The proposed control of this organ- Szation is interesting. One director will be elected by the production credit associations, a second by the cooperatives which ‘have obtained money from the bank for coopera- tives and a third by of the federal mainder of the ® director at large, to the farm credit admi three others, also to be a the credit group. Two of these will represent the public interest and one ‘will speak for the national farm loan associations, ‘The fact of the matter, however, is ‘that the government will be in com- plete control of the board of direc- tors and, because of this fact, must accept responsibility as well as take credit for whatever it does, ‘The system of voting is apparently designed to prevent it, but it would be strange indeed if anyone whom the administration wants on the board were defeated. It, alone, makes regular contact with all of the scat- tered associations and a mere sug- gestion will, in most instances, be enough to sway the votes of local groups. of this, there is no denying the benefit which may come from the operation of such associa- tions. They make credit easily avail- able to the farmer on where he may borrow at a profit. The one real danger is not unfair control from above, even though the set-up lends itself to such rule. It is laziness and dishonesty at the bottom. Under the old land bank set-up many local associations were formed for the purpose of bringing its serv- ice tothe farmers, Most of these elected politicians or quasi-politicians | s leaders. These milked the asso- clations dry and then permitted them to become moribund. In one North Dakota county there were half a dozen such organizations,- all inac- tive and all with liabilities exceeding their assets, when the new land bank set-up was promulgated. It is one thing to demand home Tule, another to show enough activ- ity to keep that home rule alive, Veterans May Serve to End War Profits War veterans’ organizations, says a dispatch from Washington, are pre- Paring to take a terrific crack at war profits during the coming year. Revelations made before the sen- and leave business alone where it is possible to do so. When the question of government supervision of certain businesses was Presented, however, the shift was sudden and remarkable. A large number of editors, though not a majority, expressed belief that some- thing had to be done about such businesses as banking and public util- ities and that the government was the proper agency to do it. Thus we have the theory of no governmental interference with busi- ness notably impaired with regard to certain enterprises where conditions have not been satisfactory to the public in many districts. The vote may or may not be rep- resentative of the popular thought, but whether it is or not it gives ample proof of the old adage that circumstances alter cases and that it does make @ big difference whose ox is being gored.
