Show I THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE Affairs in the Nation Project of Making Owners Out of Tenants Reaches ‘Second Thought5 Says "Writer "seg-onfT- h oil ht stage Not exactly the aeeond thought stage for that implies that the thing ha been don — and ha been found to be not what first thought expected It to be It would be more accurate to ay that the tenant-- 1 n t o - landlord project has reached the stage of looking at the facts And a look Mark Sullivan at the facta reveals some obstacles not apprehended In the beginning I still think as I have rather frequently written that the extent of farm tenancy In America is a national detriment I still think It It will ought to be cured and hope be But I am obliged to admit as the new dealers have been obliged to admit that the process Is not simple It can’t be done over- be done nifbt' And wholly by government flat reason for Yet there must b excessive farm tenancy and there must be a way of ending the rea son There must be a reason why farm tenancy Is greater in some states than In others Comparison of the conditions ought to give us a clue to the cause In Maine the percentage of farms — Operated by tenants Is only 43 practically nothing In—Oklahoma the percentage is 613 over half Why the difference? Observe another pair of states one eastern and one western In Pennsylvania (a good farming state) the percentage of farms operated by tenants is 159 In Iowa the percentage Is 473 Again why the difference? I am not sure I know the answer But I have a glimmering of surmise And I should like someone better equipped than myself to explore this suggestion Price of Land I suspect the reason for the larger percentage of farm tenancy In Iowa than In Pennsylvania lies in the fact that the price of land in Pennsylvania has remained stable over the past seventy years while in Iowa the price of land has been rising spectacularly most of the time (with occasional sharp drops) Because the price of land in Pennsylvania remained about the same from decade to decade farm owners were not tempted to sell they remained on their farms regarded their farms as primarily homes to be kept to be lived on n and to be handed on to their chil-dre- In Iowa on the other hand the price of land was rising during some periods rising spectacularly Consequently the Iowa farmer was tempted to sell he was led away from thinking of his farm as primarily a home he came to think of himself as a speculator in land Cites Quotations For many year in the country banks of Iowa and in many Of the on city banks a visitor could see the walls a poster reading something like this— I quote from a letter from an Iowa citixen who himself quotes from memory: ‘‘The best investment on earth is the earth itself Iowa is the best part of the earth Iowa farm land has doubled in value each ten to twelve years for more than sixty years Buy an Iowa farm while you are young and be rich in your old age" I suspect that therapid rise in value of farm land may have been one of the worst things that ever happened to Iowa I imagine Iowa might have been a happier and more prosperous state had land prices arrived early at some stable price and remained there Actually Iowa land rose from about $9 an acre In 1865 to upward of $200 In recent years Tenants Into Owners When the new dealers with the sympathetic support of nearly everybody began to consider the project of turning tenant into farm-ownethey found that one obstacle is financial— the sheer quantity 'of money needed The total number of farms in the United Of States in 1935 was 6811999 these upward of 40 per cent are operated by tenants— considerably upward of 40 per cent Secretary Wallace in one of his speeches gave the number of farms operated by tenants as 2865155 call it three For convenience million farms operated by tenants The objective is to turn these three million tenants into farmers owning and operating their own farms Now let us look at the cost The average price of these thiee mil rs if the government starts in to buy farms in a wholesale 'way Take Mr Wallace’s figure $4000 a farm and multiply it by three million The result is $12000000-000$12000000000 which the government would need to pay out if it were to buy up all these tenant operated farms Twelve billion dollars is a lot of money Even to new dealers the amount is staggering Mr Wallace says —and everybody will have to agree with him — that it is Impracticable for the government to buy all these three million farms and turn them over to tenants The project must be approached in some slow gradual and more modest way Obstacle Encountered Another obstacle encountered was that venerable confqunder of all reformers namely human nature It was discovered that not all tenants want to be ‘farmers— many prefer to remain tenants And it was discovered that not all tenants are fitted to be farm owners Not all tenants have the qualities to ao quire and manage farms Whether a tenant buys his farm from the government or from a private owner he must in either case make a partial payment If he has not been able as a tenant to accumulate enough money to make the first partial payment on a farm it is a sign that he is hardly fitted to be a farnT owner Certainly it is impossible for him to become a farm owner for the first “down payment" is indispensable ' Brings Letters Something I wrote some weeks ago on this subject brought me many letters Many of the letters came from farm owners eager to sell their farms From these letters I infer that there is no lack of farms for sale What is lacking is tenants wanting to buy and able to buy A man in Oklahoma writes me that he owns a farm of eighty acres containing a four-roohouse and a barn and chicken house The value of the buildings is about $600 This owner is willing to sell the eighty acres and the buildings for $1200 But he says ‘‘there are no purchasers there are tenant-farmewho would like to buy the place but they do not have anything to pay down I would be willing to take a payment of $300 in cash and give long time on the balance’’ Pretty clearly if a tenant has not been able to save up $300 to make a first payment on a farm of his own ’he is not likely to become a farm owner even with the help and guidance of the government The government as I understand will in all cases require a down payment from the person to whom the government sells a farm Another Difficulty The new dealers discovered yet another difficulty in human nature The government might take a ten ant set him on a farm and make him owner of the farm But suppose the tenant now £ farm owner should at once sell the farm or rent it to a tenant? Obviously the net of this operation would not be any decrease In the number of ten ants in the country So the new dealers came to the point where in their plans they would prevent the new owner from selling his newly acquired farm The government would buy the land and sell it to the tenant on small annual payments strung out over 40 the government would years not let the purchaser sell his title to the farm until after he had completed all his payments And the government would not permit the purchaser to make his final payment until after 40 years even though the purchaser were able and eager to pay In full In short the government would take a tenant and put him on a farm and make him an owner But he must remain an owner willy-nill- y for 40 years Threshed Out When congress starts to debate the subject and write a law these and other difficulties will be threshed ou't In the end it is possible it may come down to some such simple program as this: If there is a tenant who wishes to become a farm owner let him look about and find a farm which he wants and which is for sale Let him make his own contract with the owner Let him make his first payment At this point the tenant can turn to the government The government would advance the amount necessary to complete the And the government purchase would let the' tenant (now become owner) pay his debt to the govern ment in small payments over a period of 40 years at a very low rate of interest That is the simplest way Whether it or some other way will be the one adopted by congress will appear in a few weeks m - Dedication"of Shrine to fot—Children Jrjter Revives Old Issues By PAUL DDC ST LOUIS of the childhood horns of Eugene Field the author of ‘‘Little Boy Blue" ‘‘Wynken Blynken and Nod” and other children’s poems as a memorial to the poet has revived the controversy over his (UP)-Dedlca- Uon birthplace It is generally believed here that Field was born in the three-stor- y house at 634 South Broadway which has been made into perhaps the most complete and intimate of shrines to any figurs in American literature Jess P Henry the man most responsible for the restoration of the Broadway house' says he has Convincing evidence that the poet waa born in the building Henry points to the letters of Melvin il Gray executor of Field’s estate in which he states that the Broadway house was the authentic location Tablet Unveiled in 1902 A bronze tablet In the front wall on the house unveiled in 1902 by Mark Twain supports Grays’ statement The plaque reads: “Here was born Eugene Field the poet 1850-189- It was the unveiling of this tab let which first precipitated the con troversy And strangely enough it was the poet’s brother Roswell Field Jr also a poet and journal 1st who first raised the question caof ball led 1928 Sine have been firm enemies of Trotsky- depths From time to time unfortunate' ism What they may have done or to what depths they may have sunk capitulators were again arrested or for insignificant or purely I do not know For a long jime I deported fictitious reasons— thsalnijW8ita their nervous systems break cernlng them- - Yet it is absolutely destroy new represclear that they hoped to save their their Will After each was amnesty granted heads through my political liquida- sion and new more at a price of humiliating tion” All that Is true But It is only half of the truth In spite of all Thus step' by step was accomthat has been said I am convinced plishedthethe “education” (mors of tens of that the old bolsheviks whom I had thousandsdemoralization) of party members and known in the past— Zinoviev Kamenev Platakov Radek Muralov indirectly of the whole party of acas of accusers over a and the rest—have 'not committee! cused as well and could not commit the crimes to period of 11 years 1923 to 1934 The ruling clique needed this lgnomln which they have confessed But why people may ask does lous ritual to nip every movement of critical thought in the hud Trotzky complicate his own defense With the assassination of Kirov in by this defense of his owij worst December 1934 the process of party enemies against themselves?

The "slight" miscalculations of G P U for which Kirov paid with his head did not deter Stalin Around the corpse of Kirov he decided to erect a new trial to transform the moral responsibility of the opposition into actual and Zinoviev juridical responsibility terrorized submitted to everything Kamenev gave some opposition Then in July 1935 a special new trial was prepared for Kamenev behind closed doors He was brought face to face with death He gave in From this moment on the preparation of a new trial proceeded on a huge scale There were enough candidates for accusation in the prisons of Stalin He who was ready to take upon himself guilt for the crime of terror and to discredit me was promised his life and after some time complete freedom Zinoviev Kamenev and the others went the limit of humiliation and After which they were double crossed and shot Demanded Penalties Stalin sees ahead Already during the trial of the 17 the G P U forced Radek and Piatakov to publish articles in Pravda in which they confirmed the accuracy of accusations and demanded the supreme penalty for the accused Radek and Piatokov knew full well that they participated in a frightful judicial frameup hut did not Suspect that' by these very articles they were tightening the noose around their nt own necks If in the Zinoviev trial world public opinion had been convinced that I was a secret terrorist and ally of Hitler the second trial possibly would not have been required But in spite of everything the Zinoviev-Kamane- v affair provoked revolt So a new more “convincing” trial was needed Radek and Piatokov were the natural leading actors of the new production They had but to choose between certain and immediate death at the prison door and vague problematic Stalin undoubtedly said to hope them through his intermediaries of the G P U: “We could not avoid shooting Zinoviev Kamanev and the others because they were secret We have greatest confienemies dence in your confessions and shall do everything in our power (o save you" To reenforce these arguments the G P U shot those accused who demonstrated any resistance The mechanics in themselves are not complicated They require for their realization only a totalitarian regime that is to say absence of slightest freedom of criticism the military submission of the accused Witnesses prosecutors and judge to only one person and a completely controlled press whose monotonous roar frightens and demoralizes the accused and public opinion as a whole That plus the permanent possibility of shooting all defendants who manifest my

you taking this year?” soon may be a common question among high school students if Chicago Motor club officials realize their plan to incorporate a course in every high school in the safe-drivin- g United States "Data compiled over a three-yea- r period convinced us that the most effective conceivable way of reduc ing the terrific number of deaths in this country each year from automobile accidents is adequate- - in struction of high school studenti'in the rudiments of safe driving" said George W Barton chief engineer of the Chicago organization in com menting on the program Educators in many states — and legislators in one state— agree with him judging from the fact hundreds of requests have been received for material assembled by the motor club as the basis for such a course The Indiana legislature has passed a law making the course a required part of the curriculum in every high school in the state Illtaojs Schools Aid In addition according to Barton more than 100 high schools of Illinois made use last year of the material and requests for information have increased greatly this year “The fact that-thgreat majority 6f the 40000000 drivers in the United States learned to drive without expert supervision is one of the chief causes of accidents today” Barton argued “We hope to remove this cause thrbugh our educational program” He pointed out that high school students usually begin to drive before they are graduated “The students need to form correct driving attitudes immediately since attitude is responsible for from 40 to 60 per cent of traffic accidents” he said 12 In 100 Killed Statistics show 23 out of every 100 students of high school age can look forward to going through life without fear of injury or death from automobile accidents 12 will be killed or seriously Injured the other 6 will be less seriously hurt The motor club believes these figures would be less appalling if students were drilled in principles of correct driving ' A
