Democrats want to help farm-
er.s and expect farmers to hell)
them. I hey promise them that
what the farmers cannot soil
in the United States shall he
k sold abroad. But "the cost of
surplus mafUetinjj; will be mt
on the commodity."
This means that what it costs
to sell surplus products in Eu
rope will be charged to the
fanner. On the govern
ment's charge for foreign niiir
heting, lie will agree witli the
power trust that our govem-
liient isn't callable or honest j
enough to engage in business
siiccessfully.
The Bible warns us against
usury. See Deuteronomy 2:1
21 : "Thou shall not lend upon
usury to thy brother. Usury of
money, usury of victuals, usury
of anything that i.s lent upon
usury." . 1
