' Jt V j T THREE BILLION FOR ROADS -- o- One hundred and ten nations will spend $3,000,010,000 on roads during 1031, according to the Department of of this great sum Commerce. Two-third- s $2,000,000,-00- 0 will be spent in the United States. It is re a Thus the good roads movement is world-wide. lized, nowadays, that paved highways are essential to business and social progress. The quick, economical and efficient transportation of commodities and persons is one of the factors that makes for a higher developed civilization. In the United States special attention is being paid to the problem of secondary highways. The modern slogan is Make every farmers gate a shipping point. A large majority of American farms are still sit uated on roads that are about the same as they were twenty or fifty years ago. Long wearing but economical road materials, suitable for all but main, heavy traveled highways have been developed. Millions of farmers can be given the full width, weatherproof, good roads they need without increasing tax burdens, if available funds are used wisely. States can invest in nothing of greater value than permanently surfaced farm roads and few investments will pay greater dividends. 00O00 farm-to-marke- t, THE LEADING ECONOMIC PROBLEM -- o- During the next few years rising taxes may prove to be our foremost economic problem. Cost of government has gotten beyond all control. Local divisions of government, especially, grow increasingly wasteful and ineficient. And in somes states there is a d tendency to put government into some bus iness or other at the expense of the poor taxpayer. The taxpayer is not entirely blameless. His laziness and lack of interest in economic problems has given tad! consent to governmental extragravagance, and has in fluenced the spread and development of powerful bureaucracies. Eternal vigilance on the part of voting and taxpaying citizens is necessary to good government Unless the great mass of Americans show a new spirit toward their government the near futhre will bring tax increases of almost unimaginable proportions. The wind blows that way, and only an active public consciousness can prevent it. well-define- o The government has never shown much aptitude for eal business. The Congress will not permit it to be conflicted by a competent executive, but constantly intervenes. The most free, progressive and satisfactory method ever devised for the equitable distribution of property is to permit the people to care for themselves by conducting their own business. They have more wisdom than any government. ooOoo WHAT PUBLIC OWNERSHIP DOES Australia, whose government has entered business on a wholesale scale, is in the midst of a financial crisis. The country is suffering from shrinkage in national income of $500,000,000. During the past five years growing adverse trade balances have met by loans abroad. With unfavorable trade balances and markets, Australia is behind a billion dollars. Deficits extending inf i millions, of dollars annually bushave been created by unprofitabe government-owe- d inesses. Public ownership may spell disaster both to industries and workers. ooOoo -- FRIENDS OF THE CRIMINAL There has been more enthusiasm than logic in many cures for crime. Ceaseless demands for more and more laws, more and more restrictions, have unconsciously been an ally of the underworld. If America is a lawless country, it is largely the fault of our lawmakers. The wealthiest, securest and most aggressive under world in existence has become established. Recently we have been treated to exposes of the relations between criminals and police and judges. We have been shown how clever lawyers, aided by technicalities, can save the most hardened thug or murderer from justice. We should have learned by now the utter folly of passing more laws is the hope of curbing the criminal. The Matute books through their complications are often his best friends. so-call- ed S' j'M'A y, v? - v ;J.

So Its not really intention on the Governments pait that they dont do better, its ignorance. You see every fellow looks at things from his paiuicu lar part of the Country. Ha cant sec what might be the condition in .some other part. Now take this Drouth aDair down South. Time p'mple were called Farmers. Well tl.;y were farmets, they made wha little living they ever got out of the soil, so they are certainly entitled to he called Farmers, but they were not the Farmers that the east and the north have been accustomed to look on as they drive by. Its not the big red barns, the cows, the Digs, the Chick ens, the big fat work horses. During all this hardshln, itu the Renter Farmer, the Share Cu.ppar. A man that on a cotton Plantation t'mds ten acres, that Is If he uses one M.,le. He is calle the One mule cropper, or the two mule cropper. He lives in a little box Inuse, generally two roans and a lean too They are eternally in debt to the Land ow r who gcncr'Vy owns the store or if he dom the ml Merchant. That o:.e share of that o.;e little crop has got to keep them far the whole year. They buy everything they eat. They are going too, the Red Cross and the County Agents are,, of making each land owner give them about a half acre and put in a garden, that will help a tremendous lot There Is nothing they can work at during the time they are not putting in or tending their cotton. Those little few hales of cotton that lie gets as his share has to pay his whole previous years Grocery, and other merchandie bill. Now how In the world can he have a cent left. He hasent, he Is in debt. Then add a drouth to that, where he dont raise anything, then what happened. The Store man was practically broke along with him. The land owner who also deals just from year to year, he was broke, so picture the condition yourself. No work to be had, no food to be b tight, no seed to plant. Na.v whose fault is it. It aint anybody s fault. If it is. it aint his, he has done tae best he knew how. He is tend Ing to his business the same as his Father and Grand r did before Rich him. men. educated men, on Wall Street and in all big Businesses were perhaps car rying on their Fathers business in what they had always thought was a safe and sane way, yet look what happened to them, Look what hap-Thsmart, the poned to everybody. crafty, the schrewd, they all got It only they had somebody who would help era. These people had nobody, their friends were the sdme as they were. I was raised or) a Fai m and Ranch combined, was raised where they had Renter Farmers, and I have always conscientiously believed that a poor share crop renter was the poor est and least provided for man in this or any other Country, arid the Cotton renter Is just half again poorer than this wheat or Corn renter, so you see what shape he is in. The man in the City that has to live In the slums with Ills family, but he gets something every day for his work, he has something to show for It every week, he knows what he is making, he knows what he is spending. He has his little money, he can buy where he can find i's the cheapest. This poor renter has to stay with the same merchant for the year even if he is overcharged. Then they tell me some of you havent raised your Red Cross Quota. Well all I h pe Is you are tuner a Renter farmer M.
