Foodstuff 8 Burned W hile Poor Go Hungry Residents in Nezperce, in northern Idaho, the center of a vast grain section, are burning: burn-ing: their wheat for fuel. They find the food p roduct cheaper for fuel than either wood or coal. Cha'rman Alexander Legge of the farm board announces his opposition to proposals to give 40,000,000 bushels of government-owned wheat to unemployment relief agencies. rjereve find two radical extremes which is the best proof that could possibly be offered of-fered 'xur economic structure is decidedly wr ong somewhere. While hundreds of thousands of people are hungry and need bread, this country is standing idly by permitting wheat to be burned for fuel. Could anything be mo re ridiculous ? . Idaho wheat growers are burning whea t because it costs only $9 a ton, whereas wood is $10 a cord and coal is $16.50 per ton. There is one commodity they have plenty of. That is wheat. Without a market it cannot be sold, and is is standing in elevators and m piles at every station, a drug upon the market. The illugtrious chairman of the farm bo ard . would apparently sooner see foodstuffs burned than authorize its purchase with government treasury funds to be fed to the unemployed un-employed and the poor. - By buying this grain and giving it away two things wuld be. accomplished. The poor wdul have something to eat and the grower would get a fair price for the commodity he raises to meet his financial obligations, and more money would b placed in circulation. That is What money is for. Hoarding it in th e treasury does not help anybody The Prosperity Boys of 1930 Yes, indeed, prosperity is returning," according to the report of the International Hydro-Electric System for the quarter ending Sept. 30, 1930.

This battle lasted for several days and hundreds of red men lost their i lives In the fight. The attack was' madeTin June, 1845, when an enormous band of red men swooped down on a large wagon train. Quickly assembling their wagons into'a large, circle, the white men were""able to withstand the Indians fora short timet More Indians 'joined the attack and the pioneers were ready to give up when a troop of soldiers came galloping over the plains to the rescue of the white men. The battle' : continued for three days before the Indians were crlvcn off. . The Port of London is the largest Inclosed water area in the world.

It is true, no arguments but scattering scatter-ing around the adjectives copiously we take it that the lady is one In spirit with those others who in Bishop Manning's cathedral screamed "Lynch him!" at the Denver Den-ver judge We' confess we' -don't quite understand, under-stand, what "companionate marriage" mar-riage" is all about but it aeems to us that if the oldv "variety of marriage is the dreadful 'failure some people say it is there can be io harm in trying something else we don't think marriage ia a failure when indulged in bt-.veen two persons of common sense but we must insist that it is purely a personal contract -and that neither church nor state ougnt to have any f sigr in it The idea that "marriages are mace-in heaven" has done a lot cf harm because married people have expected, heaven to make marriages a success marriages aie made on earth between earthly people and chey .succeed or fail entirely upon the amount of gray matter that goes into them if marriages are made in heaven heav-en then it is certainly impertinent for any church or any state to assume as-sume -control over them If Bishop Manning from his pulpit pul-pit had shown a Christian spirit and "loved his enemy" ns he is supposed to he might have confined con-fined himself to earnest and gentle reproof which would not only have given Judge Lindsey nothing to kick about but would have taken the wind out of his sails instead of that the bishop merely got pretty free with abuse which is silly anyway and so he can't have any complaint coming If somebody protests ,. You can't settle any question by slinging mud at it marriage is a very interesting subject and ideas about it ought to be discussed calmly because, among them there may. bca good one .
