"Proclaim Libert? through all the lamd" Liberty Bell If All Could Afford to Eat The eating habits of the people govern the amount of 'land that can be profitably farmed, says H. R. Tolley of the United States department of agriculture. He points out that there are four average diets. First, there is what is known as the "restricted diet," which consists chiefly of flour, cereals and beans. The second and third are slightly expanded diets, permitting a modest allowance of lean meat. The fourth is known as the "liberal diet," and it consists of regular portions of wanted foods, including fruits, milk and meat. Says Dr. Tolley: If all Americans could ?af ford to be on the "liberal diet" there would be no submarginal land problem today. In other words, it would require all our land to raise enough good food for Americans, if Americans could afford to buy it. i , But, instead of working to make it possible for all Americans to afford the "liberal diet," the department of agriculture is paying farmers to grow less food, paying other farmers to plow under their crops, fighting to reduce the amount of food grown so that, even if Americans could afford to buy it, there wouldn't be enough. Meanwhile, farmers or poor lands were being moved to small tracts of good land, provided with gardens -and orchards of their own, and jobs in factories so they'll have some cash. The whole picture is hard to get, but it's very stupid. Tho the department experts KNOW the facts, they deliberately delib-erately run counter to them. While farmers are paid to destroy food crops, others are handed farms and encouraged encour-aged to produce food. Meanwhile, IF Americans. could buy what they want to eat, there would be an actual shortage of food. That Plea of Insanity i By demanding radical reforms in legal procedure in murder trials, the American Psychiatric association has moved to end one of the most glaring deficiencies of America's Amer-ica's criminal law. . A report on the "insanity defense" was submitted to the nineteenth annual convention of the association recently, recent-ly, and it proposed several important changes. It would eliminate most "of the abstruse technical evidence which nowadays is submitted to a confused jury when a defendant defend-ant asserts his own insanity, and it would provide that any man submitting; such a plea be confined in an asylum for an indefinite period, whether he .be found guilty or acquitted. ac-quitted. That the courts' way of handling the insanity defense Kneeds thoro overhauling is too obvious to need argument. The psychiatrists, who have good reason to know how com-. com-. pletely this kind of defense is abused under present prac-f prac-f tice, are to be commended for their effort to bring about a reform.
