Straw votes previous to those held by the Literary Digest gave Upton Sinelair a slight advantage over his opponents in the gubernatorial race. The Digest poll, how- ever, presumably more dependable than the others, give Governor Merriam, Re- publican candidate, a lead of more than two to one over the famous former Socialist. Tocqueville, the French statesman and Writer, wrote of us in 1831: “In America those complaints against property in general, which are so frequent in eho. are never heard, because in Amer- jea there are no paupers; and as everyone «dl property of his own to defend, every- ‘one recognized the principle upon which he porn it.” Had this eminent French- man visited America a century later he —— have changed his mind about there paupers here, but it is true if had property he would be and though the construction of each answer may be different, in effect each} | group’ of Key Westers who make ~it a kee we sctines es Sou eed i et What would happen to aol FERA to discontinue its work here now.

MARKETS AND RECOVERY rapidity and cheapness of distribution quickens ¢émmerce and increases the sum of human ‘happiness the world over, ac- cording to the Grain Committee on Na- tional “Affairs, which sdéme moriths’ “ago made a comprehensive survey of farm and market problems. In its report to Congress it was also declared that “every blunder that slows} down or impedes world distribution be- comes a crime against humanity.” The! conclusions of the committee are based on the idea, now generally accepted, that man-made barriers are largely responsible for surplus in one spot and want in another. It becomes increasingly evident, there- fore, that the most important problem to be solved by world statesmen is how to| move the surplus of one country to the | market which human need always Be | Every facility that adds to the ease, | AVING a General Electric refrigerator in your sow, instead of wait- ing until next spring or © By actual check these savings — figute from $8 to $12 every vides in another. month of the year—winter as = summer, will save you at least well Legislative tinkering with time-tried | | #50.
