THE KEY WEST CITIZEN | | Civilized men have pretty ‘g>heral- {3 conceived the aim of life to be the opportunity to pursue cultur. | ideals. | Since a certain amount of leisure is 1 necessary to the pursuit of the arts. anything which contrib- utes to that lei- sure is worth while. The problem of food. cloth- ing. and shelter has loomed large in the his- tory of man. It still does. Ear- lier civilizations were cenied much inthe way of culture because of the relative amount of time necessarily devoted to the acquirement of these necessities. The exclusive few who | enjoyed leisure at the expense of hu- man slavery paid an awful price for | their cultural advantages. There is something pathetic about millions most of their waking hours and getting nothing but food, cloth~ ing. and shelter out of it. Yet this was the rule of life for most every civil- ization in the world before the ad- vent of the machine. Now this has been changed so effec- tively and so suddenly that its very accomplishment has seemed to many a problem. Science and the machine have thrust approximately eight hours a day of leisure upon millions who never before had any leisure. It lessing. but many of us have not | recognized it.

But some one says, “The machine has brought us indus- trial civilization with its tyrannous technique.” Ridiculous. Industry is as old as humanity itself, and actually antidates agriculture by many gen- erations. A very considerable amount of progress had been made in making y tools. sewing up skins for clothing, | and providing simple shelter before men even learned at all the art of planting. There is nothing new about industry except the ways of doing it. | Much the same thing is true of Agriculture. It is an old art, but we : ‘ have learned many new tricks about it. Agriculture is very important, al- ways has been. When that first primi- tive man learned that by planting seed he could get a crop, it changed his method of living. For the first time, he could settle down and live in one place long enough to get used to it. The tempo of life began to speed up with the first rude tool: was set rapid- ly on its way by the first simple har- vest. and has been progressing ever since. Since industry and agriculture have been inseparably associated from the first rude beginnings, there is not only no reason for thinking of them as separate activities now, but there is no sense in doing so because it is im- | possible to think of them separately. Loud - mouthed individuals, mostiy poli.icians, try here and there to stir up antagonism between farmers and industrialists. Unfortunately, we have with us always the type of “leader” who is willing :o sacrifice the welfare of “followers” for selfist: purposes. Even the sacred precincts of democ- racy itself hav: been invaded by this ilk, while education and religion are ; not free from the demagogue. But in truth, there is no way of thinking of farming in this country without thinking of industry at the same time. The two are inseparable. They have not always understood the relationship. They have been unkind to each other. But there is no way to divorce them without wrecking the { family. The industrialist cannot live without the farmer. The farmer can- not live without the industrialist.
