Compliments Organization The president began by compli menting the farmers for the lmprov ment of their organized forces since he laet made a farm address here In 1P29. Smiling broadly at the huge crowd tHat greeted htm. he reminded his hearers that six years ago they h&rfj gathered "In a very small hotel room." Relating the years of depression, he asserted "Juatlce and old fashioned common sense demanded that In the building of purchasing power we had to start with agriculture." Declaring the nation's "life Is com ing back buoyant, hsppy life we need no evidence beyond what we see and hear around us." he was cheered by the fnrmers. We're going to give the president fche greatest reception he ever had. ' Homer Rodeheaver. familiar to the farmers as the platform companion of the late Billy Sunday, assured the farmers, and half of them rose from thrlr seats In an approving roar. The president said that the admin istration farm program "originated In the aspirations of the farmers them selves expressed through the several farm organizations." Tooth and Claw Rule Out "Wo sought to stop the rule of tooth and claw that threw farmers into bankruptcy or turned them vir tually Into serfs." Attacks on speculators drew anoth er round of applause from the con ventton. ! He added to this attack the empha tic words "that's what we propose to end In Amerlci." powerful flood lights lighted the at5fe from various angles of the audi- j torlum. Postmaster - Genera1. Farley, the chairman of the democratic national . committee, Joined the president here I and sat on the platform with Mayor i Kcllv. Emphasizing with raised voice hla conviction that "forty-eight separata i sovereign states, acting each as a sep- arate unit, never were able and never will be able to leglalate or to admin ister Individual laws adequately to balance the agricultural life of a nation so greatly dependent on nat ionally grown crops of many kinds." he was Interrupted again by ap plause. Assertions Applauded Applause also greeted assertion that a "relative purchasing power of below fifty pel cent haa now moved up today to better than ninety per cent." Mr. Roosevelt planned to remain for an early lunch with convention officials before entraining for South Bend, Ind., where he epeaks t a special convocation this afternoon at which he will be awarded an honor ary degree of doctor of laws at Notre DAme. Speaking of employment benefits In Industry as a result of better farm conditions, he said: "You're not the only fellows who understand this. The city fellows are beginning to understand It. too." "Ooods are moving again, and as goods are moving, so Is money mov ing once more, and as it flows, mil lions of farm and city famlllea are getting a bipger share of the nat ional Income," he continued. Benefits To Consumers "The farm program Instead of bur dening consumers as a group has actually given them net benefits." His strong endorsement of the Canadian reciprocal trade treaty won a round of applause. Observing that "greater trade is merely another word for more pro duction anil more employment," he aid "that statement ought to be hung on tho wall in every farm home." The crowd laughed as he remarked In reference to the source of criti cisms "it all deprnds on whose baby hns the meules." Concluding, the president was heartily applauded as he assorted "We intend to win through to a bet ter day America will point the way towards a better day." The convention stood and cheered lustily as Mr. Roosevelt finished, l.lvrn Unit.

It Is the job of discrediting every type of made-work attempted by the administration by giving It the name of boondoggling. Whoever Invented It, It's a good word and amusing. But It Is being put to pretty bad use. It Is being applied to every sort of Job that seems or can be made to seem unim portant. Counting chicken t Ha, ha, hal Boondoggling! Don't explain that counting chickens was part of a seri ous effort to break up a vicious New York business racket that affected honest dealers aa well as consumers; that had to do with holding down extortionate prices and keeping di seased poultry off the dinner tables of the city. Tap-danctngt Ho, ho. ho! Boondog gling! Ignore the fact that tap-dancing Is something which people pay money to aee. when they have money, and Is considered an honorable pro fession: that when prosperity returns there will be a demand for those tap dancers If they haven't become ditoh dlggers or starved to death. And so thru a long list. There's a Uugh in every line. If you feel like laughing. Somehow we do not. For the latest added to the list of boon doggles are the writers. The employed writers of the anti New Deal campaign now have the choicest chance of their careers and they are 'not overlooking it. Unem good as well as In the Interest of public welfare." "No single project can complete the picture," O'Neal said of the points In the program he advanced. "Agriculture , . . challenges labor and Industry to come with It. A pro gram of selfish group Imperialism can only lead to destruction. A pro gram of cooperative group action will lead to national enhancement."

Boy, Is this a honey! No, we don't think It's funny. You see, we know a lot of unemployed writers. We know so many that we fear employing 4500 will not take care of nearly all. And we make our liv ing by writing. Just as the boys who arc so busy about boondoggling do. We have long regarded It as a useful and honorable profession and we don't enjoy sniggers on the subject. Not only that, but we haven't any Illusion that we hold our present Job by divine right or that there is no possibility of our ever being out of a Job. In that we may be different from the boys who are being paid for having such a happy time over boondoggling. But we don't think we are. Campaign Jobs are not the most permanent form of employment and we have a notion the boys are aware of that fact. We feel that they Just aren't using their heads. Carried away by their art, they are forgetting that, they might any day find them selves among the unemployed. So, on behalf of all writers, em pi oed as well as unemployed, we earnestly implore these hard-working humorists: Don't doggie this particular boon! Washington Dally News. y GIF!
