Something for nothing How it does appeal to everyone. When people are no longer able to believe that they are capable of earning money enough for their needs and desires they embrace the idea of changing the val je of the money. It is like a poker game. The man with a few lonesome white chips in front of him conceives the notion that he can get a fresh start by raising their value to that of the reds and that of the reds to the value formerly had by the blues. Inflation or reflation or any other method of changing the val ue of money is not going to immediately cure all ills of a society as a patent medicine is claimed io cure physical diseases. One will be no more successfuPthan the other. A memory ten years long will bring to one the knowledge that it was in times of easy money when everyone contracted this dis- seáse of debt in the first place and now it is claimed that we should return to easy money to seeK a cure. True, if one’s creditor^ were as insistent on payment when money was cheap debts would be smalLr, but creditors do their investing when money is cheap, not their collecting • 4 It isn’t the quanity of money that is hurting the farmer and the laborer. It is the unequal distribution of it- When, as was re cently reported in the news, it is possible for bread to be the same price as twenty years ago with wheat at one half its price at that time then it is easy to see the division of money that is at fault. When with pork Selling four cents below 1913, ham is seven cents above it is plain that our distribution system is out of joint. When the cost of putting the farmers products on the market is four or five times the value of the goods it is apparent that the fruit of the world’s work are too unevenly distributed. . The entire nation is going to be in this very depression until th- thirty some odd million farm residents are able to buy some thing more than necessities. Corporations will pass their dividends, onds will continue to slump and profits will be scarce indeed ir manufacturing lines as long as farm prices yield no return above actual costs It may be that it wilt be continued until corporation* go into the hands of receivers and their goo-is are sold for wha’ they will bring, but either commodity prices will come down to * price schedule comparable to the farmers’ or the farmers price will rise. i The farmer asks less from the social system in the way of profits than any o! h 'r class Nevertheless, he must have his mib or the system breaks down It isn’t reasonable that it will make the game any fairer to double the stakes. That plea sounds more like it had been made the winner than the lossr. We don’t wan’ more chips; wh4» is needed is a new deck of cards * ith fewer thumb nail marks cn the corners of the aces If no one is able to make all the players act fairly we wib have to start another game and different hands wil shuffle the cards. -------- o-------- MOREu OH; LESS, LA, LA Have you noticed the songs lately?

No, we have im proved and thanks to the depression for it. Every cloud has some tinge of silver in its lining. Perhaps when life attains the seriousness it once held we shall sing again of true love unpolluted by sensucusness and of ad venture bold and free It may be that the pastoral song will be in favor once more and that our children will sing of the old vacuum cleaner wiih the same nostalgic urge that our father addressed the old haken bucket. t It is, we s ippose, too much to hope that our generati n wib ever bring forth a song writer the equal of 1 homas More or of gome of the others who have written words that have given delight to singers for a hundred years But. we have improved ■ ■ .
