What Srn Democratic Process?
To the Editor:
In the editorial column of The
Medford Tribune of Monday, De
cember 9, 193, there appears the
following article. Obviously It speaks
for Itself:
"Secretary of Agriculture Wallace
has been railed various things by
those Who don't like him a theo
rist, a dreamer, a radical, a socialist,
and what have you?
. Let some of his critics produce
a clearer and sounder definition of
what the economic alms of this
country SHOULD BE than the fol
lowing excerpt from one of his re
cent speeches:
" "Our national economic goal
simply must be Increased, balanced
production of the things we all
really need and want, at prices low
enough so consumers can buy. yet
high enough so producers can stay
on the Job, and with Income so dis
tributed that no one ahsll be pre
vented from participating in con
sumption except those who 'refuse
to work. This is the goal we all de
sire to reach, and we can permit
only two qualifications: One. that
It must be reached without further
Injury to our national resources;
and two, that It must be reached by
our traditional democratic pro
cesses'," We were Interested to know what
these "traditional democratic pro
cesses' are. Will the editorial mind
transcribe these democratic pro
cesses Into words, and how they
are worked? They may illuminate
the awakening negative democratic
mind In it search for processes to
adjust Itself to the Ideas and the
Ideala to be attained by the new
democratic order Immediately ahead.
Our most earnest desire la that
you provide us with light upon this
Important subject. Mr. Editor.
We would appreciate your contri
bution to the true science of the
democratic action of lmpcrlally
mlnded America.

CROCHETING BAR KEEPER
GETS GRIST OF FAN MAIL
50-50 basis, wrote
MILWAUKEE. Dec. 13 (AP) Harry Haberman. the tattlnir bar
tender who lifts a barrel of beer without battlne an eve. took tim nut
from his Christmas sewing today to answer fan mall.
It all started when the news was i
spread that Harry, a former star
athlete, does fine needlework when
not busy serving drinks at hta
Wauwatosa tavern. They read about
Harry In West Boylston, Maas., In
Fresno, Calif., Reading, Pa., Mc
Mlnnville. Ore., Cleveland, O., and
Miami and wrote to him.
A "Young widow" In Arizona
wanted Harry to live with her and
her mother on their ranch, where
11 three could "crochet and knit In
contentment."
A New York night club wanted to
put him In an act there. Harry
didn't care, much for that one It
would cheapen his work, he mused.
Another letter offered Harry a
chsnce to no Into business, manu
facturing the "Hsbermsn crochet ball
holder." Its inventor had the patent;
Harry the fame. Perhaps they could
get together on
the Inventor.
"They call me up In the middle of
the night to ask me about my needle
work," said Harry. "Letters from all
over the country ask for my pat
terns. They introduced me at a show
and they come to see me crochet
and got my autograph.
"They are running me ragged."
he added, "if they don't stop pretty
soon, I'll never- get my Christmas
presents or bed spread finished."
Harry's bed spread Is his pride. One
fourth done after two years of work,
he estimates It will be worth $1500
when completed.

opinion of the conference, he said,

administer relief funds.
Judge Day also attended a confer

further acquisition of forest land by
the federal government. It waa their
consensus, he stated, that protest to
additional acquisition should be made
unless the government makes some
provision for reimbursing the funds
that would be lost through taking
