FOR GOOD OF THE INDUSTRY
CIGNIFICANT is the statement by
James Alger Fee, circuit judge
for Morrow and Umatilla counties,
at Lions club meeting Monday. In
commenting upon the conference of
the Eastern Oregon Wheat league,
starting today, he said he would
like to see the wheatgrowers get
together on a workable program
for benefitting their industry, and
put it across without dictation from
outside interests. He knows, as does
many another lawyer and business
man, that the prosperity of our sec
tion depends upon the success of
the basic industries, of which wheat
growing is the largest He also
knows, as do others who are in
formed, that to accomplish far
reaching results growers them
selves must take united, intelligent
action.
It is for this reason such men as
Judge Fee, not wheatgrowers them
selves, are cooperating to the full
est extent in promulgating the work
of the Eastern Oregon Wheat
league, a purely grower organiza
tion, having for its purpose the dis
semination of facts, as nearly as
can be arrived at, while providing
machinery to put into action such
conclusions as may be ascertained
from these facts. The facts it at
tempts to obtain bear on the very
heart strings of the industry: prob
lems of production, transportation
and marketing the vital organs,
so to speak, which make or break
the grower.
Probably Judge Fee has a vision,
as does many another, when every
wheatgrower in the section will
align himself with the league; and
every other wheatgrower in other
sections will take an active interest
in similar organizations, all of
which may eventually be brought
under one head to present an in
domitable front to fight the battles
of the industry. Such a picture is
not far-fetched, with the rapid pub
lic enlightenment which the league
itself is helping to effect
WOULD AID UNEMPLOYED
TN ORDER that there may be more
road work in progress, and as a
stetp toward relieving the unem
ployment situation as far as possi
ble. Chairman H. B. Van Duzer of
the state highway commission pro
poses to appropriate $500,000 to be
distributed among the several coun
ties of the state, this to be used in
construction of market roads. The
distribution, we understand, would
be in the shape of loans to the
counties but would furnish funds
for the immediate prosecution of
needed work and prove of much
benefit where the counties have ex
hausted their funds for this pur
pose. The real purpose, however, is to
give more employment to those out
of work, and if this step is taken
the funds will be available at an
early date. There is very real need
of this, and the state highway com
mission has continued its operations
with many more men on the job
than is usual at this time of year.
There may be some question as to
the authority of the commission to
make this appropriation, but the
meeting of the legislature early the
coming month could take this up
and pass on it so there would be no
unnecessary delay.
THINGS ARE LOOKING UP
CROM what we hear from differ-
ent parts or the United States,
it is New York City that is deepest
in the slough of despond right now,
while in aimost every other section
the sunshine is beginning to shine
through the clouds of business de
pression. It has been a tough year; there
is no denying that What with the
financial slump that began more
than a year ago, and this year's
wide-spread drought, and the tum
ble in the price of wheat and cot
ton, and the shutting down of fac
tories, we haven t been through
such a "hard times " year since 1921.
But It has Its compensations, by
comparison with previous similar
situations. Commodity prices have
'not gone up but have come down.
Most of those thrown out of work
had something ahead to tide them
over.
The main thing the matter with
the country right now is timidity.
The head of a big bank said the
other day: "Our bank has more
money in it right now than it ever
had, but where is it? It is mostly
In time deposits, drawing Interest,
or in savings accounts. People are
hoarding instead of spending. If
everybody would spend even ten
percent of what they have saved
up, It would start the wheels of In
dustry going again speedily."
And we hear that the "Buy Now"
movement, which started a few
weeks ago, has spread around the
country and that people everywhere
are beginning to take the dimes out
of the savings bank and the dollars
out of the checking accounts and
buy the commodities which are for
sale everywhere at bargain prices.
This is going to be a "useful"
Christmas, from all Indications.
People generally are planning to
give as Christmas gifts things
which are not merely ornamental
or luxurious, but such useful pres
ents as new things for the home.
That is all to the good, for it puts
money circulating in channels
where it is most needed.
Some smart fellow proposed a few
weeks ago that everybody ought to
spend ten cents a day that he had
not intended to spend. That sound
ed foolish to some, but a lot of peo
ple nave taken it up, and the accu
mulation of dimes thus started on
their merry way is beginning to
show its etlect
"Big money" is not timid. One
large financial house announced the
other day that it had clients ready
to invest anything from a million
dollars upward. They didn't want
to bother with trifles worth less
than a million, but they would buy
into anything profitable in million-
dollar units. The ones who are
holding back are the ordinary folks
like us. But if we believe in the
future of the United States we can
prove our faith by beginning again
to spend our money for necessities
and a little bit more, and when we
are all doing that the "hard times"
will be over.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE
COUNTRY?
ONE of the most amazing state
ments made at the White House
Conference on Child Health and
Protection is that city children, on
the average, enjoy better health
than country children.
That is reversing the accepted
idea of the benefits of rural sur
roundings, outdoor life and fresh
air. But the report is a specific one,
the result of an extensive survey of
health conditions among school
children.
"Rural school children have from
one-half to 20 per cent more physic
al defects than the city school chil
dren," says the report "The rural
child gets a one-sided physical de
velopment. He lacks the medical
care and health service facilities
that the city child is offered."
Not all city children are perfect
physical specimens, however. More
than 70 per cent of all children in
the public schools, city and country,
are sufferers from physical defects
that affect their mental as well as
their physical developments, accord
ing to the same report
Standing alone, that sounds as if
the rising generation was up against
a pretty tough struggle for exist
ence. But compared with only fifty
years ago, when only one child out
of three born ever lived to school
age, we are doing pretty well by
the children. And when every com
munity, city or rural, pays as much
attention to public health as the big
cities do now, the ones who will
benefit most will be the schoolchil
dren.
COOPERATION FOR THE
SMALL FARMER.
MOST of the public discussion of
the Federal Farm Board and
its work thus far has centered
around the problems of the large
scale growers of staple crops and
livestock. The small farmer, grow
ing a few potatoes, several different
kinds of other vegetables, market
ing a few cases of eggs, a small
amount of fruits, must have won
dered, if he thought about it at all,
where he fits into the new scheme
of things.
How can the small general farm
er get the benefit of the coopera
tive marketing plan on which the
Farm Board is based? Is there
anything in it at all for him?
Naturally, the Farm Board began
with the largest and most pressing
problems. It is getting down to the
small grower now, and the work of
organizing these small farmers into
local commodity cooperatives is be
ginning. It is going to take a lot
of time, and there are doubtless
many farmers whose operations and
locations will not enable them to
join with their neighbors in organ
izing marketing associations. But
those who can and will do so are
the ones who will get the most good
out of the new system.
For the information of farmers
interested in the marketing of fruits
and vegetables the Board has issued
a pamphlet of instructions for or
ganization.. It is called "Bulletin
Number One(T and will be sent free
to anybody who wrties for a copy
to the Director of Information, Fed
eral Farm Board, Washington, D. C.
Educators Predict What
World Will be Like
In 1930.
By CALEB JOHNSON
What will this world of ours be
like twenty years from now?
I would hesitate to make any very
definite predictions on my own au
thority. I have lived too long to
look for any Important changes In
the course of twenty years. But
the National Education Association,
which numbers in Its membership
leading teachers of the schools of
the whole United States, is not as
cautious as I am.
The Education Association has
compiled a list of things which will
he different in 1950. Some of them,
everybody will agree, are likely to
como true. The rest are generally
held to be desirable, but I think
most of us will doubt that they will
have come about In twenty years.
But here is the list. Read It and
form your own opinion. It is stim
ulating to thought, at any rate.
The Association divides its pro
gram for the future into "material"
and "social" betterments.
First on the material side It pre
dicts the general adoption In twen
ty years of a system of health and
safety that will practically wipe out

JOHN JOSEPH GAINESJMJX
OVERWORK
He came into my oflice last week,
eyed me suspiciously, I thought;
acted as if he'd fly out if the least
thing happened that was unusual to
him. He gae his age as 52, had
been behind a counter all his life;
hadn't had the time to get married,
or to attempt anything not directly
beneficial to himself. He had with
in the last month sold his business,
and felt bereaved by so doing. He
was of foreign extraction, weazened,
tremulous, greedy-looking. Exam
ination revealed no organic disease
whatever.
But there are human disorders
graver even than organic disease.
Here was a man with a worn-out
nervous system. Every thought of
rest and recreation, had forsaken
him long ag-o. He had one obses
sion that he might be compelled
to go to the pooihouse or starve to
death before his time.
I all but lost my temper when he
skittered all over the room as I
tried to take his blood-pressure
preventable accidents and contag
ious diseases. That would be won
derful, and it will come in time, but
twenty years is a short time.
We shall have, by 1950, says the
Association, a system of housing
that will provide for the masses
home3 . surrounded by beauty, pri
vacy, quiet, sun, fresh air and play
space. Undoubtedly there will be
vigorous efforts made to achieve
that end. Such efforts have been
going on for a hundred years. Again
twenty years is too short a time in
which to wipe out all of the re
maining slums.
A flat telephone rate for the en
tire country at moderate cost Is
another of the things we may ex
pect in 1950. I thik this is more
probable than the first two. So, too,
is the predicted universal air travel
at low cost. And we are making
rapid strides toward item No. 5,
which is a system of paved, beauti
ful highways which will connect
every part of the nation.
There is much to be said in favor

made more noise than a frightened
child this man of over fifty. I told
him he ought to be turned over my
knee and warmed with a bed slat.
He looked at the door, wistfully I
thought, and I told him he was per
fectly welcome to decamp; go back
to "business" and wind up in the
bug-house! This aroused his ire a
little, and he told me he hadn't been
born yesterday; that he knew what
he was doing. I congratulated him
for his first natural expression in
my presence, and told him he had
probably been born, but he had nev
er lived he had just existed! We
finally agreed and shook hands on
a schedule of conduct for him.
There is a man, a perfectly good
man headed straight for the in
sane asylum, Unless he reforms
right now, and it may be too late.
Why is he in this condition? Just
the mad chase for a dollar! He has
it at the price of all health and
comfort There are thousands of
good men, doing the same foolish
thing. This letter is just a warn
ing; learn to rest while it is today.
of the Association's ideal of the de
velopment of school buildings and
playfields until they will exceed in
nobility the architectural achieve
ments of any other age. And some
of the finest structures that have
been built in the past twenty years
in America are school buildings. But
here, again, twenty years is a very
short time.
Everybody will indorse the ideal
set forth in the seventh item of the
educators' program, the organiza
tion of business, industry and agri
culture to minimize uncertainty and
depression. Few will agree, howev
er, that we are likely to have found
the secret of the cause of business
depressions by 1950, much less dis
covered the remedy and applied it
generally.
We are making progress toward
the next item, which is the perfec
tion of the insurance system to give
universal protection from disaster,
unemployment and old age. How
far we shall have got in another
twenty years I would hesitate to
mm . MM
guess, but a long way farther than
we are now, anyway.
In the matter of the extension of
national, state and local parks to
provide convenient recreation areas
for all the people, I think we shall
have come pretty close to the goal
by 1950 yet "all" is a pretty big
word. And when the Association
anticipates the perfection of com
munity and regional planning to
give all surroundings increasingly
beautiful and favorable to the good
life, well, "perfection" is another
big word.
The final item in the material
program which the Association ex
pects will be in effect by 1950 is the
extension of the shorter working
week and day so that there will be
work for all. I think that is com
ing, but whether it will affect every
body by 1950 is still questionable.
Please do not think I am trying
to ridicule or disparage the ideals
of the National Education Associa
tion. Quite the contrary. I think
the best thing that could happen to
the United States would be for ev
erybody in it to set up the whole
program of material benefits which
I have just outlined as something
to aim at, and to join in every
movement calculated to bring all or
any of them about.
And I feel the same way about
the social program, which the tea
chers say they expect to be in effect
by 1950. It is a wonderful program,
but it won't come true in twenty
years. It provides for hospitaliza
tion and medical care for all who
need them, a quickened apprecia
tion of the home as the center of
personal growth and happiness, ed
ucational service free or at small
cost for everybody, from infancy
to old age, the multiplication of free
public libraries, the achievement of
a national standard of citizenship
which will mean wholesome com
munity life and clean government,
the virtual abolition of crime by the
transfer to the preventive process
es of the school and education the
problems of conduct which the po
lice, courts and prisons now seek
to remedy when It is too late, high
er ethical standards, greater devel
opment of the creative arts and a
religious awakening which will
grow in strength until most of our
citizens will appreciate the import
ance of religion in the well-ordered
daily life.
That is some program. It em

economic and religious reformers
have been striving for Bince the be-

ginning of time. One must respect
the idealism of the National Edu
cation Association and admire the
confidence of its members who be
lieve that through education they
are going to make all of it come
true by 1I0.
It will come true, if at all, by
education, and by no other means.
Education is, I firmly believe, the
only solvent for the problems of
humanity. But that does not nec
essarily mean education in the
schools as they are organized to
day. While the educators are at It,
they might consider their own work
and try to relate it a little closer
to the life which their students will
have to live if they are to make a
success of living in a world which
is still quite a bit short of perfect.
