Listen to the Gamblers Howl!
itie nepapt'rs ot the country are
being liooutJ with prcpaaiija
against the plan ot the American
l-ami tSureau heJeration lor fanners
to maiKei their own grain and se
cure tor tiie.neivt at least a part
ot the huge piot.:s that now goes to
ganiDiers.
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.

Sunday got my dime changed on

chewing gum. 1 seen Jane & I give
her sum. It seemed to pleese her
wo i!j require bond issues of $40,
iiVaVO or more to put the state in
the water power business, this being
the amount contemplated in the
Joseph bill, turned down by the last
legisluure in spite of the fact that
all the forces identified with the
Non-Partisan League were favorable
to the measure.
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. Oregon Voter.

N. P. L. 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. It
