"Address 141 West Ohio Street, Dept. 30, Chicago, Il "ing evenly both stems and leaves is not simply that the farmer is in politics; the farmer of this country has always been in politics. From the time when he drove his wagon for two days across the prairies to hear Lincoln debate with Douglas until the time of the Populist movement not a little of the political thinking of this country has been done by the man of the soil. - But the significant thing about this present situation is that the farmer is in politics for economic purposes, that he is trying to change the government in order to secure cer- tain changes in economic order. “As soon as he attempts to look after his own occupational and social interest through legislation, the farmer finds that he is met by something other than political opposition. He finds that he is treated to the same measures of repression which have long been used in this country against the industrial workers when they have sought to improve their conditions. After people get over the first shock, their ideas get clarified considerably by getting pounded over the head a few times, and now that the- farmers have had their meetings broken up and have been driven out of towns after their organizers have been beat- en and imprisoned under false pre- tenses, they come to understand pret- ty definitely what are the forces be- hind the opposition to even the begin- nings of a new social order in the United States and how they operate. “Therefore it is quite certain that those who are attempting to discour- age the farmer’s interest in a new order of things by methods of savage repression will but increase and aec- centuate it. 1 “Another significant aspect of the farmer’s program is that he is in pol- itics for economic purposes as a prop- erty holder or at least as a man who intends to become one.” That Doctor Ward is not alone among churchmen in thinking that we need a new order of industrial and po- L litical life is shown by the following 3 v.”' .Y"M\‘“ from the last yearly pastoral letter ALY AT RN of the Episcopal house of bishops: = T ) . “Neither in America nor in the ] world at large may the vicious fea- tures of the old order ever again re- ceive the hand of welcome from hon- est men. We are done with them as completely as this country was done with slavery after the Civil war.” From the general tenor of state- ments by: churchmen and church pa- pers, it would appear that an increas- ing number see the absolute need of a large measure of industrial democ- racy both for the farmer and the city workman. ¥ HAT might be character- ized as a progressive churchman’s view of the Nonpartisan league is found in Rev. Harry F. Ward’s new book, “The Social Order.” Doctor Ward is pro- fessor of Christian ethics in Union Theological seminary in New York City, but he is better known as a lead- er in the Methodist Federation of So- cial Service and as an author dealing . with practicul application of Chris- tianity. ) Doctor Ward informs his readers as to what the Nonpartisan league is and goes briefly into its aims and objects. Hay which the air circulates freely, cur- with its magic touch. There are points of mechanical excellence that distinguish this fast- working, gentle hay-handling ma- chine from all other types of side- rakes and tedders. There are also many points of mechanical excellence that distinguish .all hay machines made in the International Harvester factories — McCormick, Deering, and Milwaukee mowers and self- dump rakes, International tedders, sweep rakes, stackers and loaders. ;;::o:fd:{ngxi?g'e:‘ytfl rabie Ask your nearby International full- gomah : line dealer to show you.
