The old fallacy with which we all salve our consciences, that “there is always room at the top” and that failure is owing to lack of eugenics or learning, is writ large in the professorial mind as the economic cause of idleness, poverty, intemper- ance and crime, In the fall of 1914 I was unexpect- edly called to become an inhabitant of a university community. I found myself in the midst of people most helpful and charming in many re- spects. educated in this university and they have learned many things for which I am extremely grateful to the insti- tution. Coming from North Dakota I have found many things that to me are most unpleasant. I have found the farmer most insistently and per- sistently “knocked.” PROFESSORS LOYAL TO PEOPLE TERMED MUCKRAKERS Another thing that to me seemed self-evident, when I first came here, was that every damnable combination of capital which oppressed the people, and which President Wilson has since tried to curb, found here most astute cynical support. 1 also found that our noted teachers in the agricultural college at Fargo, N. D., who had braved these unholy combinations of capital long before President Wilson was obliged to deal with them, were called “muckrakers” and “incompetent observers.” I found those with whom I talked about rural credit lamentably ignorant concerning the true history _of Taft’s commission appointed by the governors of states; of the fact that a delegation of bankers preceded the commission for the purpose of heading off proper rural credit; and of the fact that that commission overwhelm- ingly recommended the Raiffeisen sys- tem among other financial measures. The cause for lack of intelligence concerning labor among the teaching forces of the universities and higher schools is not hard to find if sought. They are: 1.

Conscious or unconscious subsidy by gift or favor to university men of influence. -This does not necessarily imply improper motives on the part of the recipient. In all fairness it may be said that many members of faculties are endeavoring to inform themselves on the'labor question. COMMERCIAL “I. W. W.S” MOST DANGEROUS It would appear as if THE SAME OPPRESSIVE FORCES THAT HAVE CRUCIFIED LABOR IN THE PAST ARE TO BE APPLIED AGAINST AGRICULTURAL ORGANIZATION. In my opinion, the commercial I. W, W.s are more dangerous to the per- petuity of this country than the in- dustrial I. W. W.s. They certainly know where to throw the monkey wrench or apply the emery to obstruct the combined organization of the farmers with the other industrial or- ganizations.

These cxrcumstances were not new. This campaign was commenced long be- fore the United States entered the war, even at the inception of the Non- partisan league. Halls for assem- blage were denied them or rented out from under them; riots were incited against them; bankers refused to honor farmers checks where they had money .in- the banks, until legal pro- - ceedings were threatened or com- menced; all devices of organized thug- gery were brought into requisition.
