OUTLINED BY CUPPER Kansas Senator Tells What Bloc Has Done and What It Hopes For. Contends Its Action Requir ed to Fend Off Grave Economic Crisis. By ARTHUR CAPPER. Editor's Note. Arthur Capper is well known in national political circles, fair ly well known In practical literary cir cles and in Kansas ia regarded as one of the "big men" of the nation, while farmers throughout the United States look to him as a leader in the attack on the serious problems that confront them. In the following story he sheds a light on the "agricultural bloc" that may give yon a new understanding of ita aims. The senator from Kansas knows his subject and has the courage of hia convictions. For many years the United States government has been content to let ag riculture take ear of itself. There has been no national policy of a construc tive nature. Farmers have gone on pro ducing under many handicaps that might easily have been removed. The result haa been disaster that in the last two yeara has overtaken farmers, caua ed billions of dollars in losses by shrinkage in the value of farm products, and has been seriously detrimental to businesa throughout the land. Agricul ture haa been brought to a point where ita future ia in peril, where it is bound to go backward unless real relief is forthcoming. The need of a constructive national program looking to the rehabilitation of agriculture ia regarded by the farm bloc as imperative. I think that fact is appreciated by business men as well as by farmers. It is generally accepted that prosperity must come first to the farms before it can prevail in the city. Farming ia the only business left that buys at retail and sells at wholesale, that pays what Is asked when it buys and accepts what ia offered when it sells. The farmer remains merely a pro ducer of the necessaries of human life. After he haa produced them other or ganizations take them over at their own price for distribution. This is true of no other important industry. The pro ducer gets but one-third of every dollar paid by the consumer for the products of the farm. Our expensive and anti quated marketing system takes the oth er two-thirds. Small Frama Needed. The unfavorable conditions under which agriculture has been struggling have wrought serious changes in it. The hazards of the business have driven out owners and brought in tenants. Tenan cy ia increasing every year, and this is menace to the nation, because it means, In the nnal analysis, tnat son rapidly is being depleted, and little is being done on many acres to build up fertility. The average renter is not a soil improver. Farms are growing larger because land is steadily passing into the hands of cspitalists and investors. The num ber of renters has not increased so far as the number of acrea they lease. While the proportion of rented farms increas ed three per cent between 1910 and 1920, the increase in acrea rented during the same period has been 20 per cent The nation needa more small farms tilled by the owners of the land. American agriculture has become the football of the market manipulator and the market gambler, the legitimate good thing of the organised buyer and the organized seller until at last it is break ing under the strain. Both producer and consumer are suffering from a mar keting and distributing system 60 years behind the times, hte only differenece being that the producer on the farm is suffering from it a little more at the present time than usual because we are in the throes of readjustment. He parts with his products long before the con sumer sees them or needs them. A host of toil and profit takers meanwhile busy themselves with these products, trans ferring them from hand to hand and absorbing as much profit as they with their skill at that sort of thing are able to extract from the marketing business, Farmers Needed. We have just recently learned that for the first time in history we have more people working in factories than on our farms, although our population is increasing at the rate of one million a year. A study of the census returns shows that agriculture has been the only interest to decline. In the last de cade employment in maufacturing in creased 20 per cent, The professions all show a healthy growth. Hut we are not keeping the boys and girls on the farm and we are not going to until the condi tions of the agricultural industry makes it worth while for them to stay here. The enactment of constructive, whole some, progressive legislation, which will bring about better conditions agricul turally and promotion of a program in which agriculture occupies a leading though not necessnrily an exclusive po sition, is the mission of the so-called fiirm bloc in Congress. As a member of that body, I think I may say with per fect candor that there is nothing dark, sinister, nor forbidding in its makeup or ita purposes. It is not a political ad venturer, its mission is economic rather than political, It 1b for things rather than against them, for the city man as well as the country man. The reason for tho bloc's existence is a desire to sorve the people and the nation in a time of need. It Is working for honest industry, ,honest finance, honest com merce, honest agriculture, honest labor, and wishes to co-operate with all of these, for they are the cornerstone on which we shall erect a truly prosperous nation. President Approves.

Pres ident Harding shares their belief, as is witnessed by the fact that he has signed every measure enacted by congress at the instance of the farm bloc. The pres ident publicly haa indorsed other mea sures favored by the bloc which have not yet been pressed by congress. The farm bloc believes that the best way to mend the present situation and provide for the future ia to increase the producer's profit by shortening the road to market. One way to accomplish this is through co-operative marketing, which eliminates the unessential and speculative middlemen and which gives the producer and the consumer their due. This we have great hope we shall ac complish through the recently enacted Capper-Volstead co-operative marketing law which gives farmers for the first time an unclouded right to organize for the sale and distribution of their own products. Things To Do. The bloc has still many important things to accomplish. One of them ia a credit plan which will be of speedy and immense value to the farming in dustry. The bloc is endeavoring to have enacted into law a system of 1, 2 and 3 year credit for farmers based on their products as collateral. Farmers every where write me that tho system is just what nine-tenths of the farmers in their home territory need. The farmer and the atockman are sorely in want of an operating credit which cannot be supplied by the 80 or 90 days' commercial loan. This precisely meets the storekeeper's credit needs, but it takes three years to produce a steer and make him ready for slaughter and it takes three years to breed a dairy animal and get it producing. Sheep and swine also require much more than six months, and the farmers' crop turnover usually takes a year. Largely because of the lack of such a means of financing its stockmen, this country is shortly to be visited with beef shortage which will cost it dear. When that time comes, my friends, beef steak is going to be beefsteak with capital B. It should be a matter of Interest In the cities for them to learn that the farm bloc is giving its support to the Capper-French Truth-in-Fabric bill. The Truth-in-Fabric bill applies the prin ciples of the pure food act to cloth ing. It requires that fabrics shall be sold for just what they are. If wool is mixed with cotton the amount of mix ture must be stated.

THE DALLES, Or, July 19. Regis trations are beginning to pile up hero for tho Fourth Annual convention of tho Oregon department of tho American Le gion which will bo held July 27, 28 and 29, when 2,000 ox-aorvico men and wo men are expected to foregather for the hospitality of Wasco county. Simultaneously with the big meeting. the first grande promenade of La Societe des 40 Hommes et 8 Chevaux and the second annual convention of tho Ameri can Legion Auxiliary, tno woman's branch, will bo held. The Forty and Eighters will meet on July 26, at an all- day, and presumably all-night session. The more sedate convention of the wo men will open on tho morning of the 27th and adjourn Saturday, tho 29th. With Tho Dalles centrally located for veterans of eastern and western Oregon, a great host of visitors is expected here on the morning of tho 27th, when the convention will bo opened by Governor Ben W. Olcott and other dignitaries. The 59th U. S. Infantry band from Van couver barracks has accepted an invita tion to bo present throughout the ses sion. Outside of the regular convention bus iness, a great program of entertainment has been arranged. The chief features will be a military ball in the new muni cipal auditorium on July 27th, tho box ing bouts on the evening or the zetn, with Battling Ortega as the headliner attraction, and tho annual convention parade on the morning of July 29, the closing day. Besides these, there will be a swim ming meet for ex-service men. This ill be a five-event program, staged In the Columbia River, and arranged in three series, preliminaries, semi-finals and finals, given at 4 o'clock in the af ternoon of each day. An elaborate list of prizes has been prepared. Dalles Post No. 19 is the entertain ing organization this year and its mem bers have announced that the visitors will be entertained as no legion conven tion in Oregon has been entertained be fore. The general committee is headed by Francis V. Galloway, district attor ney of Wasco county and Pat Foley is commander of the post. The chairmen of the various convention committees are Fred H. McNeil, publicity, H. S. Rice, decoration; Simon Cohen, enter tainment; R. M. Weber, parade; and J. T. Henry, registration. Men from the Willamette valley and other western Oregon points who do not drive through are expected to mobilize at Portland on the 26th and come thru to The Dalles on si special train. If this train arrives on the evening of the 26th, as anticipated, there will be enter tainment features Immediately follow ing the arrival of tho visitors. Hanford MacNider, national comman der of the Legion, haa just accepted an Invitation to attend the Oregon conven tion. He is expected here Friday and Saturday, and special arrangements have been made to entertain him. A number of members of his staff will ac company him on tho westward trip. Local legionnaires are extending spe cial invitations to nearby posts to turn out en-masse for the parade on the 29th, when it is hoped to have 5,000 ex service men and women in line. A uni que feature of the parade will be the Indians from the Warm Springs reser vation who are expected to participate. The parade will start at 11 o'clock in the morning, and Commander Lane Goodell of the state department has an nounced that he will convene the dele gates in final session immediately after wards for the election of officers and se lection of the 1923 meeting place. McMinnville is making s strong bid for the next meeting and is coming here with a large delegation. By far the big gest single crowd from any one point however is looked for from central Ore gon, where the Legion is very strong. The "wrecking crew" of the central Oregon Voiture has been invited to stage the initiation ceremonies in con nection with the grande promenade of the Forty and Eight. Over a hundred members of this voiture have signed up for the special train from Bend, which will also bring scores of veterans from the frontier towns. Promises have also been made of a special train from east em Oregon, picking up veterans all along the line from Baker down. Dufur post, which has specialized in the ritual work of the Legion in con nection with its meetings, has been in vited to stage an exhibition of lodge room technic when the conventions open on Friday morning, July 28. Commander Goodell has invited this post to take up an hour's time during the convention, if necessary, as he considers the instruc tion of great value to other poBts over. the state which have not yet adopted the legion ritualistic formula. The convention here will be staged in the capacious new civic auditorium, dedicated this spring. It was construct ed from city funds and dedicated to the honor of the men and women of the county who served in the war. State Schools Increase Outsiders' Tuition Fee Yearly Rate to be $105 Next School Year at Oregon Agricultural College and University of Oregon. Non-resident fees for students in the college and university were increased from $60 to $105 a year, effective with the opening of the next fall term, by action of a joint committee of regents of both institutions in Albany. The two Oregon institutions by this action, taken as a means of reducing the burden of state taxation, puts the two Oregon institutions on a par with the state universities of Washington and California in respect to non-resident tuition. In each of the neighbor ing states the differentia between the charges paid by the residents and those paid by students from outside the state is equal to the $105 to be charged in Or egon. Graduate students in both institutions will be exempt under the new fee. The committee of regents emphasises that the increased fee is not retroactive; any non-resident who has entered the uni versity or college under the present fee of $60 a year will be permitted to fin ish his course at that rate. To put the fees where they would be prohibitive and at the Bame time would be on an even basis with other states, so that the flow of non-resident students would neither be entirely cut off nor become a flood which would tax the institutions' facilities, was the aim of the committee. Members of the joint committee con' sldering fees were J, K, Weatharford of Albany, chairman. Waiter M. Pierce of La Grande, and President W. J. Kerr from the college and Judge J. W. Hamil ton of Roseburg, chairman. C. E. Wood son of Heppner, W. S. Gilbert of As toria, and President P. L. Campbell from the university. Little Boa Dies at Hennlston.
