DITOR Nonpartxsan Lead- er: Mrs. H. AT P. is cer- _tainly_naive. If T could only have a quiet talk “with “her in which' we ”could thresh out some ; dxfierences! Certainly ‘we must have a system that rewards’ brains and zenergy. - But must we endure a system that enables dollar -prizes “are not. the only-.ones worth ‘working for. - Nor, in life, need the valleys be’ so deep and the moun- tains so fflfih nor the lights so. bright end ‘the#Shadows 5o dark. The al- mighty dollar-is almost a fetish with us today. 'Under our present system, he who owns, to him wealth he does ‘not produce shall be given, and he who . owns not,. from him wealth he:pro- duces shall ‘be taken to be given to: hxm who owns. ~Absolutely fair? In Europe, aceording to-the philoso- phy of Mrs., H. A. P, for centuries - God: and nature ordamed that the sys- tem of society should have for its up-. per crust only persons of royal blood. In India, God and nature ordained the cursed caste system. But the world is ever changing. . - Truly the Bible’ says “The poor. ye have always with ye.” = In the Bible ma.yalso be found, “Verily, I say unte .you, that a rich man shall -hardly en- ter the kmgdopa of - heaven,”: and ain; “Do unto others as you Would . others do unto you.” I am'a farmer owning ‘more than 200 acres of land and with a wife and _five ‘Smail: children. I hope my chil: dren. will become’ good and successful men: and women who will help make thistold world a better place for all - peoples to live in, mnot: to be merely successful at the expense of : others. : “PAUL S.

Editor Nonpartlsan Leader: I was interested in'-the; letter of Mrs. F. Archer of ‘Teigen, Mont., on the Woman's page. She. sure sent her arrow into the goal in her remarks on: a state sugar factory. - We shipped to. the Billings:sugar factory last fall 816 cars of sugar beets. The factory has been moved -away because the ma- chiriery-was worth more-to the trust in some -other place. It costs more to buy machinery now than it did four years ago. If the labor umions, the railway: brotherhoods ‘and the farmers” would “throw in about $5 apiece that factory could -be replaced on a co-operative ‘plan, including rebates to the farmer the consumer, In that ‘way Montana people could have sugar at b cents a pound and the farmer get $15 a ton for 5 his beets Why not? We are fixed ‘to raise them. More of us would raise them if we could trade beets for sugar, and we raised 816 car, last year that : had to be sh:pped fear across the state.
