The Corn Belt has been thinking it over since his train went on intc the West, and the general conclusion is that the testimony was unimpeachable. When he told of the improve- ment in farm income every farmer in the crowd or listening on the radio could corro- borate him. They had participated in it. And those who have direct dealings with the farmer know it too. A critical editor comments: “There may be good cause for dispute of the permanent values involved in the application of these methods. But to deny the fact of direct and actual relief would be as futile as to dispute the rising and setting of the sun.” Mr. Roosevélt found the farm States in a sober and reflective mood. The absence of cheering enthusiasm has been considerably commented upon. And yet.it is conceded that he had attentive, interested and sympathetic crowds. The same thing has been noted in the movie theatres. Mr. Roosevelt on the screen seldom elicits applause any more, but then neither do the pictures of his critics and possible opponents. Crowds are neither hostile nor enthusiastic. People are troubled and wondering about it all, but their wondering seems generally to end up where the Fremont speech led them, to the improved state of the farmer and as a consequence the general economic improve- ment of the Corn Belt. And they are thankful for that and inclined to hang on to it, at least until something definitely better is of- fered. Whatever that is they will apparently want it pretty plainly diagrammed.
