Colonizing the Jobless
rpHE president has allotted $25,000,000 to Secretary Ickes
X for use in relocating jobless workers on land where they
may become pelf-supporting. The land has always been the
expansion reservoir for industry. When factory work is
brisk as it was for years after the war. men were drawn
from the farms into the cities. There was a regular migra
tion up to 1920 into Detroit, Akron and other cities catering
to the new automotive industries. Negroes from down south
were drawn into northern industrial centers, creating new
social problems there.
Nature has already accomplished a great deal of what
Mr. Roosevelt now seeks to speed up. With the slowing
down of industry thousands of men made their way back to
larms. Ihe reverse movement in 1931 and 1932 gave the
Iirstgrowth in farm population for many years.
The new farms are subsistence farms rather than com
mercial enterprises. Dwellers on the small places are not
looking so much for generous profits as for shelter and food
for their families. One wonders why the back-to-farm move
ment has not absorbed more of the jobless. But many lack
means, can t afford to travel or outfit a small farm. Many
have no knowledge of farming, and some no desire to learn.
Always they (are sustained by blind hope that the corner
will be turned and they will get their jobs back in the mine
or mm.
Coal miners have suffered perhaps more than any other
group. Employment for them has been intermittent for the
past decade. Competing fuels and greater efficiency in use
of coal cut down the demand whose war-trme proportions
had opened up many new mines. Dire poverty has prevailed
in mining villages. Aid from the Red Cross, the Quakers,
the county has been meagre. As the wife of one miner is
quoted :
"You have tu be flyin' to keep yourself eating nowadays.
We don't never buy no clothes an' we're nigh onto naked".
In Wales, where unemployment likewise has prevailed
a quarter of a million people have migrated from the coa
fields to find occupation in other lines. In this country such
shifts into other industries is difficult now. Maintenance
farms seem to be the only solution, though here again there
is the problem of increasing farm production which the gov
ernment is anxious to cut down. But as in years past when
panics in the east drove thousands west to locate on home
steads, so now the farm lands will afford escape for jobless
Given a fair! start, there is no reason why these families
should not rehabilitate themselves- on the land, the same as
previous generations of money-less homesteaders did.
Years ago the government had the land; now it is using
public funds to help these people to become self -supporting.
With competent administration it seems practical to under
take the colonization of unemployed on the lands.
ITemperance, a Century Ago
AS prohibition passes into history for a period at least,
it is interesting to review briefly the temperance move
ment which culminated in the eighteenth amendment. One
of its founders was Lyman Beecher, father of Henry Ward
and of Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe. Mrs. Stowe's grandson
has written a book promised for fall publication, entitled,
"Saints, Sinners and the Beechers!'. The Atlantic has print
ed a chapter on the first of the family to gain fame, Rev.
Lyman Beecher. One passage reads :
T MA year or so after coming to Litchfield Lyman Beecher
went to two ordinations In succession where the reverend mem
' ' hers drank heavily. The ministerial society actually furnished
'the drinks,-! they were 'on the house. 'The sideboard with the
r spilllngs of water and sugar and liquor looked and smelled like
the bar of a very active grog-shop', commented Beecher. While
: none of the ministers was really drunk, many were consider
: ably exhilarated. He resolved never to attend another such af-
! fair". !
Beecher became a fiery champion of temperance, the
Beechers had that trait of being prophets and evangelists.
Once while Conducting revival services Beecher visited a
home where he found the young wife in tears and the hus
band in bed, drunk.
"Hurrying home in a white heat of indignation he wrote
' six sermons against drinking which he preached on successive
; Sundays. They were later published, translated into many lan
guages, and widely circulated in this country-and many others.
In the concluding sermon he asked what the remedy is for in
' temperance, and answered, 'It is the banishment of ardent
j spirits from the list of lawful articles of commerce hy a correct
: and efficient public sentiment such as hat turned slavery out
of half of Our land and will yet expel it from the world'."
That was well over a century ago. While public senti
ment is reversing itself on the banishment of ardent spirits
from the list of lawful articles of commerce, great gains
have been nade in the century. Even with repeal we do
not look forward to wet Presbyterian ordinations with the
drinks 'on the house.

Not a Disease
It Is not a disease, but Is a symp
tom or sign of some disturbance of
ihe bile passages. Normally, the bile
forms In the liver and is stored in
the gallbladder. There are certain
passages which lead from the gaO
bladder to tha intestine.
When there la an obstruction In
the bile passages the bile is dammed
back and overflows - Into the blood
stream. Tha blood distributes the
bile to the akin and other parts of
the body. This gives the sufferer
the yellow discoloration of the akin
sailed "Jaundice".
: - The obstruction may be caused by
any mnammation of the stomach. In
testine, aver or gallbladder. It may
be the result of gallstones that block
the passage and prevent the flow of
bile. In other cases It may be a
sign of some serious disturbance of
the pancreas or blood.
Jaundice may occur, m the young
as well as the old. In fact there Is a
form of Jaundice frequently encoun

Is medically known as "Icterus neon

condition disappears within a few

'Acute catarrhal Jaundice" Is com

cold, grippe or "flu". It Is believed
to be a catarrhal Inflammation of the

Severe cases are benefitted by use
