Government and Farmers The Senate has for the past few days been engaged in a debate on sundry farm relief measures. In the course of the discussion sev- eral senators, who have for many years been serving the big anti-union textile and coal in- terests of the South and the big manufactur- ing interests of the North, declared’ that they would fight to the bitter end any attempt to render the farmers‘economic help. Of course, these spokesmen for the employers posed as friends of the farmers and insisted that they were motivated solely by a desire to save the individual initiative of the farmer. They de- elared themselves flatly opposed to all govern- mental “interference” with the farmers. It is rather strange that none of these sena- tors shed a tear about paternalism when big bonuses are granted to corporations. More than that. Not a one of this phalanx that has arrogated to itself the guardianship of the farmers’ individuality protested against the government interfering with the farmer during the war. All one has to do to find out why these senators did not care a straw about the farmers’ initiative during the war and why they are shrieking now about the sanctity of this supposed great American virtue is to ex- which are both appalling and unbelievable.” |°°™espondents of what claims to be | office, corporation with the French and|Mr. McAdoo succeeded in carrying tae sda - the “World’s Greatest Newspaper.”| 1.
