There ts closer political association between farmers and workers in these states than ever before, and much more unity than exists in any other section of the country. great farmers’ political organ is the nonpartisan league or also has organized political agues in several states, outside the ual federations of labor.

The new administration has done what it could to eliminate the moral hazard. It has restored to owners properties confiscated during the last 10 years. It is trying to induce the bankers to meet it in a |ncheme to make banking again pos. sible in the republic. It is promis- ing to pay off the monies owed for eigners and to treat foreign invest jors here honestly and fairly, But it has not yet found the way ‘to get rid of the army—and it can not meet the army's bills by taxation and yet pay off old debts and begin the work of reconstruction—and if the army is permitted to forage for itself, as under Carranza—and if the old debts are not paid and recon- struction berun—I said at the be ginning that pessimism is growing hero against him. | Chairman Joseph T.
