TABER
Master of National Grange
Urges Program to Cor
rect Economic Imbalance
Peoria, 111., Nov. ls.(P)
Louis J. Taber, master of the
national grange, told the organi
zation's 73rd annual convention
today that "we have not yet
solved our farm problem, and It
remains with us as one of the
great unanswered steps toward
recovery."
Proof that the farmer is not
receiving his share of the na
tional income Is evidenced by
the fact, Taber said in his pre
pared keynoto address, that In
the last decade farmers received
barely 10 per cent of the na
tional income, including govern
ment benefit payments.
Farm Dollar Down
"The farmer's condition Is
brought into bold relief," he
continued, "when we remember
that during the same period he
has educated, housed, clothed
and fed 31 per cent of the youth
of our land."
During the past 10 years, Mas
ter Taber said, prices received
by farmers were only equal to
78 per cent of the prices they
paid for commodities, goods and
services used in rural life. This
makes the farm dollar 22 per
cent below par and "it is more
than coincidence that approxi
mately 20 per cent of the na
tion's labor is unemployed."
"This proves that America's
greatest need is economic bal
ance. Such disparity cannot be
corrected by legislation alone.
Until labor and industry will
meet agriculture in solving this
problem, depression will con
tinue. Payrolls, business activity
and ndvancing farm prices go
hand In hand."
Program Needed
"Government, business, fi
nance and labor must unite In
a long-range, broad program

doing justice to tillers of the
soil and (1) assuring every per
son in the nation an ample sup
ply of food, clothing and shelter;
(2) guaranteeing the farmers that
they shall have a fair return on
their products for the essential
service which they render to so
ciety. Both of these objectives
can be attained by cooperation
on the part of all Interested, and
the wise statesmanship at the
hands of government.
Taber asserted experience had
shown reciprocal treaties have
not benefitted American agricul
ture as a whole.
"A study of tables showing
our exports of cotton and other
basic surpluses proves that the
program thus far has not bene
fitted these commodities," he
said. "On the other hand, the
very existence of these treaties
has a tendency to depress
prices."
T
BY HIGHER COURT
Salem, Nov. 15. (IP) The
state supreme court ruled today
that school district No. 1 of
Multnomah county has no right
to require applicants for teach-
I ing jobs to waive their rights to
collect disability benefits.
The high court, in a decision
by Justice Bean, reversed Judge
Jacob Kanzler of Portland, who
had held the district could re
quire the waivers.
The district contributes to the
teachers' retirement fund asso
ciation of school district No, 1,
and three years ago began to
force all newly-hired teachers to
submit to physical examinations.
If it was found that the new
teachers might be poor disability
risks, the district required them
to sign waivers forfeiting their
rights to collect benefits should
they become disabled.

Dies Making Plea
For Return Of Job
Los Angeles, Nov. 15. (IP)
John H. Mills, 70, retired
last July from a school en
gineer's job as physically un
fit, stood before the school
board yesterday to plead for
his position back,
"I offer these letters from
four physicians," he declared.
"I'm as sound and healthy as
I ever was, and you've robbed
me of the privilege of making
a decent livelihood.
"This means bread and but
ter to me and my family. You
see, it is rather an imperative
time ..."
His voice choked and he
slumped to the floor.
Dr. E. Vincent Askey, a
board member, rushed to his
side.
"He's dead," the physician
said softly.
TACOMA LEFT-HANDER
PURCHASED BY ANGELS
Los Angeles, Nov. 15. (IP)
David Fleming, president of the
Los Angeles baseball club, tele
graphed his office from Port
land today he had purchased
pitcher Floyd Isekitc from the
Tacoma club of the Western In
ternational league.
Isekite, a southpaw, won 18
games last season and lost 12.
Fleming said. The pitcher struck
out 219 men and issued 112
bases on balls in 246 innings.
Pygmies, after bagging an
elephant, move their villages to
the kill, for they find it easier
to bring their homes to the ele
phant than to bring the ele
phant home.
An experimental one-block-long
subway was built in New
York in the 1860's. Passengers
paid a quarter to ride this

To all the merchants you buy from, "repeat" orders
are not only desirable, but absolutely necessary. In
order to stay in business, those merchants have to
induce you to "come back for more."
For that reason alone, if for no other, the merchants
whose advertisements you see in this paper are anxious
to please you ... to treat you fairly ... to make each
purchase satisfactory to you.
In that fact lies the secret of one of the great truths
in modern merchandising and marketing:
