If it is politics that keeps the government agents from enforcing the law, we’ll bet they come out in force after election, regardless which way it goes. Moral: After t’.e November election, you better have that government stamp on your windshield. — ------------ o----------------- A French philosopher and historian once asked James Russell Lowell how long the American Repub lic would endure, to which Lowell replied: “As long as the ideals of the founders remain in the hearts of the people.

We answered because it was the law. We are com pelled to have them. Our friend answered: Who compels you to have them—who enforces the law? The city police can not, the state police will not, and the sheriff has no authority. Who is left to enforce this law? It’s pure “class legislation" and only “saps” buy the stamps. Well, we confessed to being one of the saps. But after our conversation we began asking ourself, why don’t the people, the owners of automobiles, buy the st.nnps and why don’t the government compel them? We have been told that in Kentucky, a federal agent came into a section of the state and issued 3000 warrants for those who did not have the stamps. The next Kentucky governor was a Republican, and since then the law has not been enforced. If this is a criterion, it certainly will not be en- forced until after the November election, We were told that when a car owner was given the citation to appear before a commissioner or federal judge, the ’s a lot of sheckels for forget- fine was $25.00. That “.................................... We can understand why a stamp. ting to buy the dyed-in-the-wool Democrat would vote for a Repub lican after he was fined $25 for not having the gov ernment stamp. It would perhaps make us angry too. But aside from all this, we can't understand why the agents of the government don’t do something to enforce the law. There are several million ears in thi United States and $5 per car would help during this emergency. We don’t know the percentage, but our narrator said it wouldn’t be more than 50 per cent of the people who purchased the stamps.

Now is u good tune for farmers to increase production for a year nt a time or shorter periods by intensive use of available re- sources It is a time which calls for caution concerning long-time commitments, especially for pur* chase of high-priced land, breed- ing stock, or equipment. During the period of high prices the wise farmer will pay oil his indebtedness and buy United States Bonds During the post- war period there is likely to be a depreciation in land, livestock, and other farm values as well as re- dueed prices received for agricul- tural products. On the other h ind the United States Government is guarantying the value, with in- tcrest, on the E Series of federal Bonds The dollar invested in Bonds now when prices are high will be returned with interest with- out depreciation and ut a tin e when the value of other commodi ties may be low. The value or purchasing power of the dollar in- vested in Bonds will be greatly increased when other prices are reduced or when an adjustment is made from a war to a peacetime economy The farmer who is wise- ly planning his war and post war economic program will have funds for use to Improve the farm and the farm home during the post- war period. Such improvements might include the home, other farm buildings, fences. Irrigation and drainage facilities, and the purchase of new equipment for the home and the farm. The present economic program for farmers should be to produce to the limst. get out of debt, buv government Bonds, and make plans to improve the home and the farm for satis- factory living and for economic production during the post-war pe- riod. 1' S.
