Now, that's what you can call a broad and liberal man. Ten years ago the Versailles treaty was signed,' effecting what the world hoped and idealists believed would be per manent world peace. There have been many little ware since the signing of that treaty ending the war to end wars and the dreams of the idealists have been blasted time with out end, but still tho world hopes and believes. Hut some thing twsides a treaty came out of the Paris peace conference. There was bora a real will to make and presei-ve peace. Over it reigned the spirit of something born of the great weariness of hundreds of millions of human beings who hud strained and suffered as a prelude to that conference. It signified the heartfelt desire of the common peoples to try some other way than war to settle the differences which sometimes arose between them but more often arose between their leaders. j 'e'1''1; ;'l;ll(l.'.llli.lliiil I Sailor , I O I Hals ll-K infll rpnE highest code of ettaloe governe our professional ervloes.

This theory namely, S that population inevitably tends to increase faster than tho mbans of subsistence, and that ware, famines and plagues 1 are consequently unavoidable curses of humanity has existed ever since, to blight the optimism of economists and ; sociologists. ; : Now, however, Oliver E.Haker, of the Federal Uureau of Agricultural Economics, declares that the United States is ; not even close to feeling the pinch of the dread Malthusian t theory. At present, he declares, there is a large surplus of ..American farm products. This sunlus has occurred annually for eight years; there is no indication' that it will disappear in the immediate future, and it is the prime reason for the widespread current demand for "farm relief." i' Not only are we producing . more than we can cat, Mr. linker asserts that the 'American farmer could easily double or treble his production if it became necessary. This, of course', has a good side and a bad side. It cer tainly removes us, as a nation, from any fear of a food shortage anywhere in the near future. Yet it undeniably means hard times for tho farmer, who is producing more and getting less for it than ever before. Mr. Baker sees only two solutions to the farmer's plight. One is to induce the American people to eat less vegetable food and more animal products, which require greater farm acreage to produce. To some slight extent, he says, this has been done; but it would have to go to much greater lengths ' to help. The other solution he suggests is increased exiorlalion of our surplus which, he admits, will not be possible until Europe and Asia have more money with which to buy our farm products. Tho farm problem, evidently, will be with us a long time. Meanwhile, though, It is at least encour aging to know that the nation never need lack food. 1927 Essex Sujicf-fi coupe.
