We are told that less than
400 families in the United Stat-
es own and control over 90 per
per cent of its wealth. We have
120,000,000 people in this coun-
try and should they try to
Slake the motto of the United
States “Might Makes Right"
it would be a sad day for the
Nation. You certainly can re-
alize that we need a Free Press
in America.
The Freedom of the Press
•hould be carefully guarded. It
is just as essential to the so-
called BIG men, that we have
freedom of the press as it is
for ‘the small man. There are
SO many of the small men that
should they rise up and strike
against the infringements of
their rights they might not be
easily controlled and there
Would be chaos comparable to
Which that uprising in France
many years ago would be as a
Sunday School picnic.

Bank robbers in the East go
on a larger scale and get heavi-
er hauls. In Brooklyn, N. Y.,
five men with machine guns
entered a bank and took ?22,-
939 in cash, and a lot of securi-
ties, and made their escape,
Tuesday. A blond woman car-
ried them to the bank, dropped
them and then drove back and
forth until they emerged from
the bank with the swag when
she picked them up and drove
away.
Our observation is that a man
who knows how to (and does)
make a living in hard times is
the best authority on economic
problems.—SnapShotsinDallas
News. The gentleman said a
mouthful when he made the
Snappy Shot we have quoted,
but we believe the two words
we have inserted in parenthe-
sis shotld be added because the
American people are inclined
toward the belief that “Hand-
some is that handsome does."
We thonght we caught faint
echoes of wedding bells this
week.
There is not a very far jump
from the position of those who
criticize the things the Presi-
dent asks for, and to criticizing
the President himself. Up to
the present time the people in
general stick to the belief that
the President “means well” and
is ‘‘honest, and all that” and
that he really wants to have
conditions improved, but many
of the people are inclined to the
belief that he is giving ear to a
lot of folks who do not have
all the traits they credit the
President with having. Mr.
Johnson can take the blame for
a lot of the shortcomings of the
NRA; Mr. Farley can shoulder
the responsibility for air mail
cancellations; onto the should-
ers of Mr. Tugwell- can be
shifted a lot of blame for So-
cialistic and Communistic ten-
dencies in the governmental
affairs, but there is a day com-
ing when the people will say :
“Why doesn’t Mr. Roosevelt
do something about this mat
ter? Why does he let it run
along without let or hind-
rance?” The Foreman connot
forever shift the blame onto
the Workman for whom he is
responsible; he will have to in
time take a portion of the re-
sponsibility and the censure
upon himself.

pared with 50 a year ago, (The
1909 to 1914 average equuls
100). Then the index goes on
to show that what the farmers
buy is at 120 as compared with
100 a year before, From this
theY SHOW that Mr. Farmer
received for what he sold an
increase of 52 per cent, while
in his purchases he wnsonly
compelled to pay an increase
of 20 per cent. This, ns you
can readily see by the figures,
leaves hint away in front to the
GOOD.
Now isn’t that just grand?
IF the figures are not 3rd De
greed it might be, but the
farmer seems to think, and he
seems to have real grounds
for his belief, that in many
lines he was being charged
enough before and he was en-
titled to a huge raise in what
he had to sell before he should
have another 20 per cent
added to what he wants to
purchase. He says that in his
machinery line the prices were
already too far out of line; the
prices have been too high when
compared with what he had
paid in years past when his
product-prices were at the lev-
el that they now have reached.
Perhaps the machinery man-
ufacturer will claim that his
wage scale has been boosted so
high, to maintain that vaunted
American Standard of Living,
that he cannot sell for less and
remain in business. If that is
so the Workmen in those man*
ufacturing plants should be
able to pay the higher prices
[for farm products and thus
| return to the farmer what he
needs to make his business
successful.
| It really seems that there
! has been a break'somewhere in
that endless chain and that
under consumption has pushed
the farmer prices too low in
comparison with what the
farmers costs are, and publica-
tion of rosy-hued figures is
not going to do anything to
relieve the stress.
The largest fountain ever built will
fee the outstanding single feature of
Vie new World’s Fair which opens In
Chicago May 26. Its flow of water, will
•be enough to supply a city of 1,000,000,
And Its spectacular lighting, In five
ootors, will use an electrical load suf-
ficient for a city of 150,000. Fifteen
foreign villages, music, fireworks and
free entertainment will be among the
major attractions of the Fair. There
are 84 miles of free exhibits. Cost
to visitors will be lov.. Reduced rail
and hotel rates are in effect. Chicago
is easily accessible by automobile
through fourteen major highways. A
program of especial interest with mu-
sic, parades, fireworks and special fea-
tures has been arranged foV opening
day. That will be an interesting time
for a firet visit.
Land of Wooden Shoes at New Fair
Certainly, we all want to
‘‘Support the President’* and
will do so so long as he is
right—and even a little past
that point. But the President,
being the highest official in
the Nation should be careful of
his actions and not permit the
weak to be trampled under by
the strong.
IV
Windmills, dikes and canals of the
Netherlands will be reproduced in this
Dutch village of the new World’s Fair
Which opens in Chicago May 26. It is
vO)ge of fifteen “foreign villages” which
will offer the visitor a “tour of the
world” in a single day. The new Fair
will have 84 miles of free exhibits.
Music, fireworks, free public specta-
cles and free entertainment will be
attractive features. Cost to visitors
will be less than last year, when the
average visitor spent only $1.17 a day
inside the grounds. Chicago’s beauti-
ful June weather makes that month
an opportune time to visit the entirely
completed Fair and see it while it Is
fresh.

Dr. J. B. Cranfill Hears From Athens
W. P. Deupree, Route 3, Athens, Texas, May 3,1934, writes:
‘■Some four weeks ago 1 went to Battle Creek HealthCenter suffering
from a long standing case of piles (hemorrhoids) and had high blood pres-
sure. I am now cured of my rectal trouble and my blood pressure has
reduced 55 points.
Another patient had neglected too long—had rectal cancer. Others are
neglecting, as the 5,000 did .who died last year of rectal cancer. I warn
again ot the danger of neglect.
The motto of our rectal specialist is no knife, no pain, no hospital
fees, no detention from business, no long delay In recovery.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. May 14, 15, 16, we have Dollar Day.
At I812J4 Main, 7-5796, 9 to 5, to new patients we give colonic irrigation,
urinalysis, blood pressure, heart, lungs, skin, rectal, uterine, dental, eye,
ear, nose and throat examinations and a complete Battle Creek treatment,
with massage, all for *1.
Mrs. C. C. Shutt, 4801 Worth, Dallas, April 29, 1934, writes: ‘-| am sure
God directed me to Battle Creek Hqalth Center. Ifeel like a different person.
I am able to do anything I want to do and I never suffer with iny heart any
more. You have done so much for me t can never repay you.”
Mrs. Shutt is the widow of a distinguished Methodist minister, and
when she came to us she had little hope for recovery. WHAT WE DID
FOR HER WE CAN DO FOR YOU. Our doctor of women (the best I
know) treats their diseases without surgery. Come, dear woman, before you
have delayed too long. Delay, danger and death all begin with the same
letter. ALL CONSULTATIONS STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL.
It’s worth *10.00 just to see me, and only costs *1. Come and bring
your friends from everywhere Wire, phone or write those you can’t see.
THIS MAY BE OUR LAST DOLLAR DAY AND YOUR LAST
CHANCE FOR HEALTH AND LIFE. I reccommend myself mighty
highly. We never give anybody nor any money up.
WE TREAT ALL CHRONIC DISEASES, including piles (hemor-
rhoids), women’s diseases, rheumatism, neuritis, chronic appendicitis, con-
stipation, indigestion, nervousness, skin diseases, lost vitality, sleepless,
ness, colitis, gall bladder, heart, kidney, bladder. DON’T FAIL TO SEE
ME. J. B. CRANFILL.
