arEDFORD MAIL TRTBTTXE, MTDDFORD. OREGON, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1933. PAGE SEVEN 10 BOY'S PLEA TO ROOSEVELT SAVES FAMILY HOME CAMPAIGN JOB To the Editor: It has come to my attention that my manager, Charles Hoover, has sub scribed to a plan for the curtailment of farm production. He must re nounce the advocacy of this policy at once, or I will have to get a new manager. If a man want to raise a hog. he should be allowed to go to it, and God bless him. The federal govern ment, the state, county or city, nor any bureau or federal agent should interfere with this right in any way. but I do not believe that Charlie Hoover or any other man should be forced into a .hog-ralslng enterprise because of his inability to get a job at anything else at a living wage. I believe the federal government should now say to Charlie Hoover, and to every other hog raiser in the United States: "Quit raising hogs; come and go to work for your Uncle Sam creating national wealth." I be lieve it is necessary at this time for the government to put to work in non-hog raising enterprises at least six million hog raisers, or prospective hog raisers. In this way alone can the price of hogs be brought up to a price level where a farmer can make a decent living raising hogs. I believe It is necessary for the federal government to put not less than twenty billion dollars of real money (non-interest bearing treasury notes) In circulation at this time to take, the place of the fifty bUllon dollars of credit money (deposits In banks founded on debts) now quietly resting In our banks, retired because of age. having outlived its useful ness. There Is one proper way to put this twenty billion dollaw of new real money in circulation, and that is to use it to meet the payroll that will be necessary when all the hog raisers and prospective hog raisers that want to go to work at 50 cents per hour' for the government In non hog raising enterprises are put to work. The government, in issuing this commodity money, should guarantee that the price of hogs will never go above 12 cents per pound as long as the minimum wage for common la bor ramalna at SO cent per hour. In order to do this, when hogs reach 12 cents per pound the federal gov ernment will cease to increase the volume of currency. It will balance the. budget by collecting enough in come taxes (hogs from the hog rais ers) to support those working in non hog raising enterprises. On the other . hand, the government will always keep enough hog raisers and pros pective hog raisers on the payroll in non-commodity producing enterprises to keep the price of hogs up to 12 cents per pound. There must be two sides to the fence. The hog raising side carried on by private enterprise without too much governmental Interference, and the national wealth creating side carried on by the federal govern ment. The individual must have freedom of choice at all times as to the side he will serve on. This is blnocracy not bureauc- rocy. Charlie Hoover must now pub- j llcly announce that he understands j and accepts this the first principal " of blnocracy and announce that he j Is a Bi-no-crat, or else I will get? an- j other manager, and he must also I provide for another Bi-no-crat to go ; to Salem with me or I won't go. I don't want to be up there alone. J. C. BARNES. ! Medford, Nov. 0. The plea of 12-year.old Adam Schmidt of Trenton, N. J., to President Roosevelt that his family's home be spared from mortgage foreclosure was answered when the New Jersey branch of the Home Owners corpora tion made Its first loan to Frank Schmidt, father of the lad.

(Associated Press Photo) NEW YORK DAY BY DAY 3y O. O. Mclntyre 'NEW YORK, Nov. 9. Even with the Rlalto'a dwindling- shows, the first night free list grows slimmer. It is now confined to regular critics and a few col umnists. Once it Included friends of producers, stars and. friends of the playwright and even costum ers. At the Winter Garden, the larg est of the music al show houses, there were only 61 com plimen tarles for -the opening night. John Chapman re ports even Joe Cook, the star, laid out 660 for 100 friends and rela tives. Five yars ago all downstairs seats of any choice were "Annie Oak leys." Noel Coward is reputedly the stub bornest of the sticklers Tor a limited first night list. He want it con fined only to critics. Earl Carroll wants to go Coward one better and make critics pay full tariff Just like the rest of the folk. Producers must pay because most theaters and producing organizations are now controlled by financing or ganizations cold-hearted bankers who see no reason to cut down their Intake. The idea la, of course, splen did for those who participate in roy alties. Free tickets were getting out of bounds. Upton Sinclair was the most fre quently interviewed literary figure of the year on his recent visit to New York. The reason is simple. He makes copy. The reporter who visits him with no idea at all finds- that after a few words Sinclair has tossed him a lead. He bivouacked among the literati at the Algonquin. Here tofore his hangouts have been around The Village. The old Wendel nome on 39th street and the avenue continues to furnish its decaying shudder to pas sersby. Since passing of the final member of the strange household and the more recent demise of the dog "Tobey," the musty brick structure in Its mortal lapse has taken on a shadowy, thoughtful gloom. Imag ination gives an aura of something portentlous within mysterious clos ets, secret stairs, hidden panels. On the south side a broken shutter flaps In a stiff wind. Curtains up stairs are soiled and the panes sug gest a henhouse window. There was a clear summer night walking a dog on the avenue around midnight that I saw one of the Wen- REPAIR THAT Leaky Roof NOW Special Sale on Roof Coatings until Nov. 14th IttoiMiaMSki Alexander Grocery, Inc.
