There may be a big truck or a fast flying bus or even a small car just over the brow of the hill. That moans an accident. According to figures supplied by the National Bureau of Casualty and Surety Underwriters, there were 5,420 accidents last year-due to an attempt to pass another car on a curve, particularly on a hill.

State police on country roads re port this passing on curves on hills to be one of the most frequent of. fenses by motor drivers. You will often find these policemen waiting on these hills. Summonses or ar- rests inevitably result, and in the country it is a sure fine. Of course, there are not enough policemen for every curve on every hill, therefore, many can get away with it except for the fact that there is another car coming. They pay more dearly than the arrested or fined drivers. They pay for it with the lives of themselves and their families as well as strangers. They pay for it | in property damage, and in the eco- nomic loss due to the accidents. No one ever has to pass on a bill —dion't do it! Nye Back on Feet, to Valley City, N.

Congress, in May, 1933, authorized the Secretary of Ag- riculture to undertake fundamental Plans for improving the position of basic commodities so that the farmer might benefit by modern marketing methods—in @ word, to raise farm Prices. This legislation was called the Ag- ricultural Adjustment Act, and, as it name implies, it was not intended to be a rigid program, but one to be adjusted from time to time as condi- tions demand. Like other scientific projects it is conducted on an ex- perimental basis, and Secretary Wal- lace called it an effort in the direction of social inventiveness.

The act is predicated on the belief that production, without Plan, brought the world to the sad state of 1932, the farmer having ar- rived there a decade earlier, and it Prescribes for the removal of surplus- es. In the campaign to increase the farmer's share of the national income by production control there are three Fequisites. First of all, the farmer must come in by his own free will, the Program must be voluntarily accepted. Secondly, the farmer who cooperatzs| must be protected from the individual who will not, and last, but equally im- Portant, the consumer must be pro- tected from pyramided prices. Ways have been devised of supplying these’ elements.
