(Kansas City Star). Back to the Land! . 0E of the beneficial by-products of this business depression should be a widespread back-to-the-land movement. True, farm products are low, and high profits from any farm property are out of the question. But for that very reason, farm PRICES are low, lower than they have been in many decades. As a result good farms can be purchased at rock bottom prices and on the easiest terms. A farm thus secured has many advantages over most any other form of purchase or investment. WITH proper care a farm does not wear out, it is not useless about the time the final payment comes due. A new farm does not have to be purchased to replace the old farm every few years. With proper care and attention the INTRINSIC worth of a farm increases steadily in value. Moreover a farm can't be wiped out by a stock market crash, or a promotion gamble, or crookedness in high places as is true of so many investment. It can't be stolen, or destroyed by fire. Even the government might fall, and still that farm, and its ability to support and provide shelter for human life, WOULD REMAIN. In other words, the ownership of a productive farm, at the present time, represents the HIGHEST FORM OF SECURITY, THAT CAN BE ATTAINED and as unemployment increases, and stocks and bonds continue to crumble, more and more people are coming to realize this fact. THERE is another point. The average farm assures a "living wage" sustenance for a man, liis wife and family, and as bread lines increase, mere sustenance is for many a consum mation devoutly to be wished. The work, the simple out-door life on a farm, do not insure perfect health of course, but they do encourage it; and health added to security, form the two most vital factors in the happi ness and contentment of life. UNLESS we are greatly mistaken the back-to-the-land move ment in this country has already started. at any rate i inquirie8 rcgarding farm lands in greater number today than for many years past and tue logic of the situation points to the movement increasing steadily in volume. Thus one may say with truth, that depressions may come and depressions may go but the beneficent law of compensation GOES ON FOREVER I Why Can 't the Truth Be Told? GEORGE Putnam the New York not the Salem George is going, to publish a true photographic history of the World War, entitled "The horror of it." Higher-ups in the war department do not favor such action They maintain such pictures showing the horrors of war would destroy the pleasant memories of gold star mothers and in case of future hostilities would retard recruiting. . Says General Carr of the army signal corps: "Only thoee photographa which allow the pleasant featuree of war oan be roleased." We agree with Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick that this admis sion is tha strongost argument against, war ever presented. WHEN high army officers who know what war is, admit the truth about it CAN'T BE TOLD, the rank and file who must do the fighting are goiug to ask WHY. And when they secure the answer to that question, they are going to have the answer to tho question, why those who know the most about the World war, from actual participation in it, are most strongly opposed to having another one. A S WE have always maintained, professional pacifists are never going to end war. Too much of a stii?;na is attached to that term, tho suspicion is too deeply grounded, that the "pacifist" is merely a polito eupheuisni, for the thin-blooded idealist who is "too proud to fight." Wars will only end when those who fought in them, and know what war really means, join in the fight against all war, as a bnrbarous madness, which is not only morally, but economi cally, out of date. In his admission that from the standpoint of the professional soldier the "truth about war can't be told" General Carr has unconsciously opened the way to an anti-war campaign, along these very lines. The publication of "The horror of it" may well mark the beginning of the end, as far as wars on a large scale are con-corned. Grange Notes By Mrs. Oertrude Haak.

On Saturday nliht, April 9, the Today By Arthur Brisbane Generous French Loans, Out Shooting News, Red and White Men Go, a Saved by Snow, Copyright King Feature Synd.. lac MIAMI BEACH, March 28. The Paris newspaper under the leading POLITIQUE ET FI NANCE printa a list of loans made by France to ' foreign countries, since the war ended. They total THIRTEEN BIL LION TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTY SEVEN MILLION FRANCS. Not including a loan to Czecho-Slovakia, of six hundred million francs, made last January 20th, a three hun dred million franc loan to Fin land or a loan made to Polish railroads of four hundred mil lion francs. The French editor's heading, "Poli tics and Finance," 1 well chosen. France has lent Rumania two billions and ninety million francs. Rumania, lying In the shadow of th. Rum lan bear, la Important. Franc has lent two thousand mil lion franc to Poland, plus four hun dred millions lent to Poll&h railways. Poland, or Russia, and adjoining property. Including th famous cor ridor taken from Germany, la Impor tant to France. France ha lent? to'nelghoora, near and far, seven hundred and seventy million francs to Turkey; twenty three million franca to poor old China. Tftls list of generous French loan to the various foreign govern ment helps you to understand why Franco feela unable to pay money borrowed from us SINCE THE WAR. You know that this country has forgiven all sums lent to Franc dur ing the war. Wa wiped that out, and requested only repayment of debt that France haa Incurred alnce the war ended. President Hoover made a public statement to that effect and was sur prised that it was never published In any newspaper In France, except a couple of unimportant Paris papers published In the English language. Having taken from Germany ao much valuable property, Alsace and Lorraine, cash, colonies, etc., France naturally feel a little anxious about her military position, with Germany and Russia on the east growing ao powerful. It la natural that France should prefer building up military allies In Europe to repaying money borrowed from us, but why should Uncle Sam be called "Uncle Shylock" by those that took his money and don't in tend to pay? That seems an unnec essary touch. The news continues as ususl in our "highly civilised" country. In the southeast two policemen are kUled. troops ordered out to prevent lynch ing. Three thousand miles away off In the northwest you .ead: "Two bandit rob thirty pa-wngcrs aboard train." It waa an Interesting rob bery. One ot the bandlta Is believed to r a woman. Among men lined up and robbed were two detectives that had pistols In their suit cases. There Is much authority in the piatoi that point first, Georgia report the killing of two prohibition agents with the shooter found guilty. In another corner of the United States. Basil Banghart, called ' member of Detroit purple gang," shoot his way out of the county Jail, wound th Jailer, com mandeers a taxicab and escape. Wa certainly live in a scooting age and the shooters themselves are Im mune. The Chicago Herald and Examiner says Frank Nlttl. called "Ca pone's chief lieutenant," Just came back from fifteen months In Leavenworth prison, learns that he Is "marked for death.' Ther is no Joking about such a mark, and It mskes the mark ed one nervous. Yesterday, LwhVV. Shaw, secre tary of the treasury under Roosevelt, died, aged 84. At about the same time Chief Bacon Rind, one ruler of tha Osage Indians, pawed on th happy hunting grounds, aged 73. A cancer killed him. Chief Bacon Rlnd waa six and one half feet high, and Important from th white American point of view. becauM he waa chief and adviser ot th richest lot ot Indians on eartY Oil made them rich.

Duffle, author of a "Book for Us Diabetica," the diabetic patient surely needs a lift nowadays If he 1 still treating his diabetes a an ex pensive disease. I have quoted practical points from this excel lent little hand book many times. In the preface to the fourth edition, Dr. Duffle frankly admits that Dr. William Brady, health colmn conductor, la "repre hensible" for the book having been written. J, am proud of it, too. Is Duffle a Scotch name, I dunno. Anyway, Dr. Duffle teaches the dia betes patient all kinds of good sound economy, in this book, Even In the dally sugar test he shows the pa tient how to save a good two-thirds of the expense of the solution used t- make the test. In this fourth edlticn the distin guished author who is still a coun tr.' doctor practicing In Central Lake, Michigan suggests how to grow your own greena for salad, in your own cellar, In the winter, from chicory sprouts. And not content with that, he tells you how to manufacture your own lemon Juice for mayonnaise or French dressing. For those who can not get lemons, he says, citric acid may be bought from wholesale drug houses for less than a dollar a pound. Lrnon Juice ranges In strength from six to nine per cent citric acid. Con sequently an ounce ot citric acid dis solved In 14 ounces oi water makes the equivalent of lemon Juice, nearly aa much of It a- can be coaxed from a dozen lemons, at a cost of seven cents. Tomatoes, either fresh or tin can. contain plenty of the only vita min of importance In real lemon Juice, and all wise diabetes patients are using lenty of tomato every day. If the diabetes patient Is using as much salad dressing as he should. Dr. Duffle observes, the economy of this equivalent for lemon Juice will be appreciated. But the Duffle con science 1 still uneasy, and he adds that it Is well to make up less than that quantity of lemon Juice equiv to the Indiana, Imagine that oil j worth hundreds of millions was hid- den under those barren lands? - . Did the white man's statesman and the Osage chief travel together on the mysterloust Journey that we all take when life ends? Did one go to one heaven, the other to another heaven? la one an Indian and the other a white man in the future life? Or are both totally unlike Indians and white men? That w,hlch our heroic "devil dog" marines and all the power of our government could not do, appears to have been done by a creature so small you could not see It with the naked eye. Sandlno, leader of Nicaragua' In surgent band, Is laid up with a vio lent attack of malaria, under a doc tor's care, unable to ride or shoot. And he la not the first victim of the tiny germs that nanophe.es mosqui to implant In your blood. Some historians believe that mala ria, distributed by mosqultos from the marshes around Rome, wiped out Roman power of resistance, making It easy for a .barbarian from the norti. In furs, to alt on the throne of the Caesars. Seen under a powerful microscope in the Rockefeller Institute,, the ma laria germ look like a finger ring with a purple stone set In It. Mtqulnlne, one of the few abso lute specifics known to medicine, conquers malaria, but, for a long time Protestant Britain would not permit the use of quinine because It had been discover?d by Catholics In South America and named for a Catholic saint. Such la the power of religious prejudice. The "Red Star' w.hlch represent Russia's opinion, predicts a war soon between this country and Japan. It Is to "grow out" of the Manchunan troubles between Japan and China. Russia knows aa little about this country aa we do about Russia, and talks about this country as philoso phically aa we do of Russia, which is saying a great deal. Russla'a prediction of war for us la encouraging, because It is sure to be unfounded.

To the Editor: Your Interesting editorial on sex appearing last week, in which you cry out for enlightenment Is. It Is believed, more of a gesture for the expression of opinion from your renders than a confession of a lim ited understanding of this momen tous social force. With this Idea In mind. It is really hard to let the opportunity slip by to get In the allotted 300 words on the subject that makes such good copy. Is there as much moral laxity aa appearances would Indicate? Are ap pearances the reverse of the real, as they so often are in social phe nomena? As the editor has pointed out, there la much difference of opinion on the question. "We really do not know what restraint was practiced. say, 35 years ago, and except for personal observation, which is very unreliable, due to emotional states, we do not know how things stand today." So defenders of mod ern youth argue. But there are other factors that should not be overlooked In making up opinion, Correct opinion is of incalculable value since it leads to dynamic action, which in turn result in progress, which In turn result in social well-being happiness the end for which we all atrtve. but so few attain. One factor Is the law of eco nomic determinism. This law holds that the changes in economic con ditions modifies the superstructure built up on them. Our moral in stitutions are a part of such super structure. So. the quest narrows down to this: Have economic con ditions changed much In the past 33 years? The answer must be yes. Therefore, a morality conditioned on a super-racket on verge of col lapse must differ greatly from that conditioned on a system in a period when it is in Its prime. And this difference Is In the direction of ex pression of the "refining foce" certainly not in the direction f It suppression. There are 'many more factors supporting this view. more Interesting too but the 300-word limit Is reached, so curtain! R. HEGNER. Gold Hill. March 38.

To the Editor: In these day of depression un- "balanced budgets, gangsterism and general unravelling of the moral and financial ties, would It not be well to give a thought to the more erudite side of life? For years, as a teacher In this coun ty, it was my privilege to lead the faltering feet of the young in the pathway of knowledge. One of my fondest realizations, as I look back to those long bygone days, Is the fact that with few exceptions my effort were not in vain. There was, and there still is, how ever, one pupil upon whom neither my tecahinga or ( corporeal punish ment were able t'o leave imprint I refer to Gus Newbury. Despite the fact that he managed ot pas stbe bar examination and has attained a modicum of repute as an attorney, he Is still a untutored in the finer phases of spelling ss the day he stepped forth from my little schoolhouse to perpetrate his dubious talents upon an unsuspecting world. From time to time he has had the Intestinal fortitude to challenge me to a spelling match, trusting to the aid of his cohorts to humble me be fore the world. Such a challenge he has flung again. The time Is to be Thursday night, and the Elks' temple the place. It is my firm Intention at that time to so expose this upstart In the gentle art of orthography as to leave no doubt, once and for all. that he has no foundation upon which to base any assumption of honor or ability as a speller. I dlsliek to thus publicly call for witnesses to his confusion, but Mr. Newbury ha asked for it and he will get It. O tempora, O mores, O OUS. O Heck I COURT HALL. Medford. Ore., March 39, 1933. Ye Poet's Cornei Red Blanket Camp In the Spring of 1931 Copco's work had Just begun. The camp-boss got busy looking around And found a spot for a family camp-ground. Women got settled and men got work. Worked right along but some got hurt. Others got lazy or of work got tired. Boss came along and says: "You're fired." The faithful old men work most of the time From installing machinery to build ing fence line. The Qnpco Is fencing the ditch In here To protect all animals but mainly the deer. The work Includes building power house and dam. Besides falling timber and clearing land. Now, back I go to the family camp, not telling you all For you'd die with a cramp. Before telling the bad, I'll mention the good: Free house rent and plenty of wood. Vegetables and bread brought to your door; Also meat and fresh milk, which means a lot more. The mail Is delivered each day of the week No matter It raining or snow Is knee deep. The school-bus horn blows loud each day Calling the children who live far away.

A 16-year-old boy was brought to the hospital aa a case of attempted suicide. He had sought to kill him self with gas, but was found before hli purpose had been accomplished. On the kitchen table he had left a letter: "Dear Father and Mother: I cannot go on living. I am glad that nobody, nobody at all, will , mlbs me. That Is what makes It easier for me to do this thing. "The1 whole world laughs at me and hates me. Always I have wanted to have friends and to 1 loved and happy as others But I have no one. Good by- t5-e. ' That suoh a letter could have been written only by a psychopatic per sonality does not remove it from consideration by the parents of ordi nary children. Many apparently quite normal children go through periods of profound depression during the difficult years of adolescence. That many more children are se cretly most unhappy during this time and that their entire later adjust ment is marred by tht unsolved dif ficulties of this period, all who have worked much with children of thia age will bear witness. What such unhappy children need more thsn anything, is a friend someone who will understand them and establish the contact which foe some reason or other their parents have failed to do.
