question put to us the other day by one ot of our farmer firmer friends the answer la Is simple to our mind the money of the world Is principally in the hands of a few millionaires and multi millionaires and la Is belag hoarded and the business of the Is at a standstill that means that we I 1 have ave lost half our foreign trade i the rhe loss of foreign trade means idle iong and factories and men and that i turn means a great deduc reduction tion in the ie amount of money the people have to i spend the he great g reat army of farmers are get ting ng T nothing nth in for f or their crops barely lough enough to pay pa interest on mortgages and id keep their roots roofs over their heads leaves them no surplus to spend and id when the tanners farmers are without spen spending dill ng in money oney the country as a whole feels the slump thousands ot of farmers are losin losing 0 their farms on mortgage foreclosures fore closures I 1 leaving them and their families flat 1 pealing fearing to risk ilsk their capital present economic conditions tho the inon eyed men iren of our country are in t estling only in ta tax exempt securities and that ties up the money of the
