EDITORS AND THE TREND OF THINGS
■ If there is any body of men today whd should be able to
grasp the trend of things and give intelligent declaration*
thereon, it is the modern editor. Handling as he does the af-
fairs of the day, he is bound to be able ho discover what is the
trend of things as much so, if ,, ot mjore, than the average per-
son.
For that reason the views of a large number of the fourth
estate is interesting to note in connection with present social
movements and political tendencies.
A group of editors, fifty in>~—■ *
number, scattered over the Un-
ited States was interviewed by
Editor and Publisher, chief or-
gan of the publishers of the
country, and they were all ask-
ed seven questions, all being on
the trend of the times socially
and politically. The questions
and the majority in each ease
are interesting as a study and
are worth more than a passing
reading. They follow:
1. Do you believe the New
Deal has benefitted the coun-
try? 36—Yes. 14—No.
2. Do you think the wide
and active public interest in
government and problems re-
sulting from the depression will
continue when and if recovery
becomes general? 17—Yes.
31—No.
3. Do you think there will
be further devaluation of the
dollar? 27—Yes. 12—No.
4. Do you think the soldiers’
bonus wiil bo paid? 42—Yes.
4—No.
5. Do you think clause 7
(a.) of the NI11A will be retain-
ed and clarified when the NRA
is reorganized? 38—Yes. 7—
-No.
6. a.—Will unemployment in-
surance become a national law!
37—Yes. 7—No. b.—Will old
age pensions become a national
lnw? 34—Yes. 3—No.
7. Do you think President
Rosevelt will be re-elected? 42
—Yes. 2—No.
It is safe to say these opin-
ions are highly significant, in
the light of the fact that they
come from men who are sup-
posed to tell what the public is
doing in its thinking and what
forces are going on that are
moulding the opinion of thp
public.
It is certain that we are to
have a continuation of the New
Deal and the administration ,ol
President Roosevelt for another
period following the election in
19.% if any credence at all may
be put in their honest opinions
regardless of their position as
to whether or not they indorse
what is going pn.
That we shall have in some
form old age pension as well as
unemployment insurance may
alfto be accepted us a foregone
conclusion. Whether it may
lead to a general sales tax or a
tax wh'ch reduces the size ni
profits and fortune, is a matter
otf conjecture, but it may likely
be a form which will combine
in some fashion the two.
The leadership in the news-
paper field lies in giving a
clear interpretation of the
changing order socially and
helping to promote recovery i
and modern editors are turned
in that direction.
The final drouth- cattle pur-
chase in Sherman was temporar-
ily halted Tuesday morning when
Dr. W. R. Sanderson, bureau of

CERTIFICATES TO BE
RETURNED BY AGENT
COLLEGE STATION—’’Pro-
ducers who have not received
their cotton tax exemption certif-
icates from the farm demonstra-
tion agent in their county are
urged to call for them immediate-
ly, or they will be returned to the
State Allotment Board,” E. R. Eu-
daly, chairman of the State Allot-
ment Board, has announced.
Although farm demonstration
agents have exhausted every rea-
sonable means of delivering them
some certificates still remain. C.
A. Cobb, chief of the cotton sec-
tion of the Agricultural Adjust-
ment Administration, has outlined
the following procedure in case
producers can not be reached.
"With reference to disposition
of tax exemption cetificates
which have not been called for,
we wish to advise that the assist-
ant in cotton adjustment should
give notice to the party at place
of last known address, indicating
final date when he may call for
such certificates.’
After that date the certificates
afle to be returned to the State
Allotment Board, accompanied by
tabulated forms giving necessary
information. "The State Allot-
ment Board should deposit such
certificates in a place of safe
keeping for future disposition.
There is no authority for the can-
cellation of such unclaimed eer
tifieates for use in redistributing
the poundage represented. It
must be available for the produc-
er concedned should he ever call
for it,” Cobh said.

L have never seen this point of

it agrees with the observation 1
have made as a layman. Of the
people 1 know those who are most
rarely sick are almost invariably
those who travel at the fastest
clip. They drink, eat heartily,
stay up late, work hard. If they
die, it is because they refuse to
go to bed long enough to cure a
cold before it turns into pneu-
monia.

fastest movers inherited iron con-

could not stand the pace. The
