Let there be no misunderstanding aliout tii.s propaganda, in tiie first piace, me tanners' corporation, known as me "U 5. Grain Growers, Inc.'' is no revolutionary plan. It uoes not seek to do away with any existing marketing agency only such as is relieved to be a hindrance ra ttier than an aid. lhe gambling Boards of Trade feel that if the U. S. Grain Growers, Inc., succeed, that one feature of their activities namely, the trading in tutures, will be eliminated. They, therefore, have launched a very' se vere publicity propaganda campaign against the fanners' organization. At a meeting of the National Grain Dealers in Cincinnati, a committee was appointed to conduct this propa ganda campaign and $250,000 was raised to foot the bill. This money is now being spent in printed propaganda by a syndicate which was set up in Chicago by the Beard of Trade.

No Government by Classes; All Working for Common Good In the orhce of the Presidency, I have come in contact lately with ev ery' kind of representation in Ameri can life the great leaders of finance, the influential leaders of labor, lead ers of various political groups and 1 believe there is not one in any group who does not want, deep in his heart, all that he possibly can to aid in in onward march. Those who are suspected most of using their places of importance for selnsh ends, are sometimes the most generous of all in their tenders of support and sacrifice for our nation's good. Sometimes you think your gov ernment is not alert; sometimes you think it is not concerned with what you believe to be your interets. Let me tell you, and 1 care not what party is in power, your government is always seeking to serve you to the best of its ability. You can not always be told every-j thing that is going on. 1 know there j is a school of American advocates who believe that everything ought to be proclaimed at every stage of our national life That is not a practical plan. I can commend your public serv ants. They are really trying to pro mote the good fortunes of our com mon country. President Harding in an address to citizens of Lancaster, N. H., August 2, 1921. Banking Progress There has been a great change in banking in the past etn years. People today recognize merit in a bank not simply because it has been on one corner for fifty or a hundred years, but on account of progressive business methods which meet the needs of the community. Banks loan money today as a bus iness, not as a favor to a privileged few. It is the volume of small loans and small deposits which have made possible the growth of the American banking system. Keeping close to the people is the secret of success in present-day banking. Banking prosperity depends upon community prosperity. It is for this reason that modern banks identity themselves with and take deep interest in indus trial development. Manufacturer. Slats' Diary. By Ross Farquhar.

The steps towards Single Tax would be in increasing the tax ex emption of farm and city homes. The exemption would throw a heavier burden on land, and is the customary step followed by Single Taxers to wards attainment of their ultimate purpose, the exemption of all prop erty except land from taxation. item 4 ot tne in. r. L. program is j one which no one can dispute. Ifi the grain grading and dockage laws of Oregon are not being enforced they should be. Plank 6 has no separate relation! to Oregon. It simply represents the j desire of one class to shift their share of the cost of the war to an-j other class. The tendency of Con gress is to conform with this desire, with the result that large incomes are so heavily penalized that the tendency is to refrain from ivesting them in business enterprises. The "state-owned bank" would be an unnecessary burden, and in the light of North Dakota experience,1 might lead to disaster, from which farmers and laborers would be the principal sufferers. ', All that is needed to defeat the costly features of the N. P. L. pro-' gram in Oregon is to show up their cost and the inevitable consequences of their adoption. Oregon is deep' enough in debt now. and taxes are ' high enough now. without venturing, into the domain of huge investment ; in precarious enterprises, with all the waste involved in political adminis-! tration.

Program Following is the tentative program for Oregon officially announced by Non-Partisan League: "1. State or municipality-owned terminal elevators, warehouses, cold storage plants and other sufficient state-owned public utilities to pre vent profiteering. ". State owned bank to finance agriculture, co-operative associations and the building of homes. "3. State development and distri bution of water power. "4. The enforcement of the grain trading and dockage laws of this state. "5. The exemption of farm im provements from taxation and city homes to the extent of $1000 valua tion. "6. A national demand that sur plus wealth be compelled to pay the money costs of the war through in comes and excess profit tax." Fnrprrninff nrriarflm would involve r s an immense increase in bonds and taxes for the state to eneage in the various costly and hazardous enter prises indicated. It also includes a step towards single tax. These facts will cause Oregon farmers to look askance at it, once its significance is understood. Only by heavy bond issues could the state or any of its subdivisions finance the construction or purchase of elevators, warehouses, cold stor age plants and other utilities.
