that they were getting higher
prices than they have dreamed
of for years. They too Id pay
off their mortgages, bay the
n»w equipment they need, and
so start the wheels of prosper-
ity spinning again.
We don’t know what is go-
ing to happen to the domestic
allotment plan of farm relief
which has been discussed in
Congress, but we think that in
1 offering an inducement to the
producers of staple crops to re-
duce their output, ti is headed
in the right direction.

TIME TO FLA NT LESS
Winter k nearly ow, and it
will be but a abort time before
spring planting is under wsy
in every part of the United
States. And in every part of
the country farmers are more
<r- less in a quandary as to
he w much acreage to bring
into production this year.
If half of the -threats of a
"farm “is1 strike” which we
hear about are carried out,
there will naturally be a ma-
terial redt tion in the volume
of agricultural production for
1933 and tha, of course, will
have a tendency to bring high-
er prices for such as is pro-
duced. We think the realiza-
tion that it is necessity for the
farmers of the nation, as n
whole, to reduce the acreage
under cultivation haa now be-
come quite widespread.
Farmers understand tt a
• large part of their trou. ’sa
have come from retaining un
der cultivation marginal lands
which were put to the plow
during the war, when the ut-
most pomible production was
stimulated by the high prices
fixed by the Government for
agricultural commodities. With
half the world at war the
United States had to feed more
than half of the rest of the
world. But that condition
could not be maintained, a
the Americas farmers' export
market has been steadily fall-
ing off for the past tea yean,
since the rest of the world got
back to its agricultural oper-
ations.
Our belief is that this export
market k going to continue to
d’miniah. Country after coun-
try which formerly was a
steady and reliable customer
for American wheat, cotton,
meat and dairy products, k
now raking nearly all of its
own necessities.
We think that 1933 is a
food year for every farmer, es-
pecially those who operate big
farms, to hegia to try to help
himself and his country bu cut-
ting down his planting by any-
where up to SO per cent. If
all farmer* agreed to this ft- y
would find, by harvest time
GEORGE WASHINGTON
The one heroic figure ia our
national hall of fame, whose
memory transcends ail parti-
sanship and sectionalism. Is
that of George Washington. It
will be many years before any
other great American soldier
or statesman become* such a
figure of national honor. In-
deed. we doubt whether, even
after the lapse of ages, our
nation will ever have produced
another character command-
ing such universal respect and
teem.
Yet Washington in hie life-
time was the target for abuse
and vilification such as few
Presidents since his day have
had to bear. A British traveler
and author, writing in 1796,
told how many men refused to
drink to the President’s health
at the celebration of ids birth-
day. When Washington re
tired to private life at the end
of hk second term as P
dent, one of the foremost of
the newspapers then in
existence declared that this
was a time for public rejoic-
ing, “for the man who is the
source of all the misfortunes of
our country is this day reduced
to a level with his fellow citi-
zens and is no longer possess-
ed of a power to multiply evil*
upon the United States ... if
ever a nation was deceived by
a man the American nation
has been deceived by Wash-
ington.’’

Tinkling bells,
and the dink of silver
In a Chinese fairy story one reads about the Emperor's garden,
where rare and colorful plants from all over the world were con-
stantly flowering.
It was the duty of the honorable head gardener to watch for
the most beautiful of the blooms and tie to the stem of each a little
silver bell. Aa the flowers swayed in the breeze, the bells tinkled
with sweet music. Thus the courtiers and the distinguished
visitors, strolling along the paths, were sure to see tie finest
specimens. .
This was the Emperor’s way of saying “I have somethiag extra
fine that you should see: look thk way and yonTI be repaid.”
Ia the advertising columns of this paper are similar messages
addressed to YOU. Read them and you will hear the clink of
silver. Our merchants are saying “We have acme extra values.
We have some especially seasonable articles that you should see.
Come to oar stores and yoa will be repaid."
You have nothing to lose when you accept this invitation. In
fact, when you fail to do so, you’re missing some of the very news
for which yoa bought this paper!
escape such calumny. There
is something in human nature
which resents the idea that
one man k superior to others.
But it did no* take toe Ameri-
cas people long to realise that
in George Washington they
had had • leader who was
probably the only man who
could have successfully led
the revolt against British
domination and establish our*
nation on aa independent basis
so sound that the foundations
laid by him have never been
seriously shaken.
The wisdom of Washington’s
warning* and admonitions to
the young Republic of which
he was the first Pros^ent be-
come more and more clearly
apparent as times goes on. Par-
ticularly- art tiiis time we are
impressed with hk wanting to
the young nation to avoid en-
tangling alliances with Eu-
rope. That was not intended,
of course, as aa admonition to
detach America from the rest
of the world; it was rather
an admonition that we should
maintain friendly relations
with all nations aad not he
allied with some in opposition
to others. We think this an
opportune time to remind oar
political leaders and the peo-
ple of America again of Wash
iagton’s wanting rgainst for-
eign entanglements.
