LIb-t-jr b1I The Farmer Gets "Helped" Again For years, the farmer has been appealing to the politicians poli-ticians for help; and the polticians have been promising it. But. everv time the farmers have been "helped" they have emerged poorer than they were to start with. . Some of the nation's corn and hog raisers had then-affairs then-affairs managed by politicians in the AAA this year and a few of them have been sharpening their pencils to discover how they came out. A typical one is Mr. O. P. Williams, oi Plattsburg, Mo. .Kurilv Mr. Williams' corn and hog production was . jrbitj-anly cut by the AAA and he was entitled to draw $2392.80 tor not raising hogs and not growing corn. He hasn t got all the money, yet; just a few installments On the other hand, on what corn and hogs he DID i ai.se, Mr. Williams has had to pay the vernment in taxes, $2728.75. So. in "helping" him, the AAA has taken away $335.95 more than it gave. Where did this $335.90 go? Easy It went to the politicians poli-ticians and bureaucrats and farmer-saviors for their rvices. Mr. Williams, after figuring out his own loss, took the trouble to discover how his own county-Clmton-came out. Hfe discovered that farmers in the unty wiU get abo ut $400 000 in government payments and will PA out in ?tt bureaucrats are tak- MtCdr fa PUrChaSin PmVCr 18 dScner or later the rest of us will realize what the fw-m-. bTrrL t;.,. tw Pvervtime the bureaucrats oftei their advice tnc cost to us wilf be more than any possible atfdve. No scheme makes a profit for anyone except the politicians. The way to get along in this country is just the same as it always was: Stand on your own feet; fight your own battles - keep the politicians out of your business. Americans Are Not Beaten In far away Hungary eighteen hundred dissatisfied workers threaten suicide en mass. They threaten, if wajres are not increased to make the mine their tomb. We in the United States have just experienced severe conflicts-on the west coast it was the waterfront strike, hS;CTnoT?h aeep-seated conviction in rtea fundamental difference between our te a depression ten times as bad as ours .Buffering actual hunger, the workers , Hungary have reached the breaking point. There's a cry of despair! It is a forlorn echo of d'Meat. Regardless of our own personal views, let us be thankful thank-ful that we are fighters. Let us be thankful that the spirit of this nation is not broken. Let us cheer for those who are willing to die for a cause but who would die FIGHTING. Appalling in its magnitude, terrible from a moral standpoint, stand-point, Hungary's workers have startled the world with their fatalistic threat. Let us hope they do not carry it out. We are all stri ing- upward, our wives and children, to better ourselves and to gam a more equitable share of what we produce. Our heritage to strive for better things; it is not in our hearts to utter a cry of despair in the battle of life.

This new sub- , stance made by mixing together j finely divided coal and siliceous 1 material such as diatomite. The i mixture is then heated in the ab- : sence of air at a temperature ! ranging between 650 and 1100 degrees centigrade. The resulting powder is divided into three grade, the finest being 19 per cent pure carbon. 75.5 per cent silica : and 6.5 per cent oxides, sulphides sulph-ides aluminum, silicides of iron, and other metals. This silica black mixes well, readily absorbs oil. and has a spreading quality that make it admirably suited for a pigment in paints, printer's inks and so forth. Because it adheres readily to objects, ob-jects, it can also be utilized as a carrier for insecticides, in wood graining and other industrial arU such as leather tinting.
