e i
man cost of deflation
Since the process of deflating ag
riculture started back in 1920, Iowa
has sustained a lss in farm values
of approximately three billion dol
lar. Te -figures dropped from $7,
701,722.280 in 1920 to $4,954,446.
248 in 1925 and from that figure to
$4,224,506,083 in 1930. These fig
ures are taken from the last census.
In the same period the dollar
va'ue of Iowa farm crops has been
slumping gradually dropping approx
imately 175 million dollars from
1925 to 1930. when it was $427,
307,000. These figures are exclusive
of live stock. Accepting the prin
ciple that 1931 crop prices are 33
1-S per cent under those 'of last
year. Iowa's farm crops this year
will be worth a bare 250 million dol
lars down 50 per cent in five years
But that is not all of the story
While values and commodity prices
have been coming down, transpor
tation prices have been coming up
There has been a net increase of
CI per cent in Iowa's freight bill
since the world war. There have
been two increases of 25 per cent
and 35 per cent, respectively, and
one reduction of 10 per cent. The
proposed 15 per cent increase now
pending would bring it up to 85
per cent over the pre-war period
The proposed increase would add ap
proximately 15 milion dollars a year
to Iowa's freight bill on the basis
of freight business volume.
These astounding figures were set
forth by Senator Peter Norbeck of
South Dakota in an address before
the Farmers union at Des Moines
Thursday. The figures for Iowa mere
ly form an index to what has hap
pened throughout the great agricul
tural section of mid-America since
1920. The slump in values runs into
scores of billions. The decline in
commodity prices over the same per
iod mounts into other scores of bil
lions. The mounting cost of trans
portation has piled hundreds of mil
lions upon the farmer's burden. In
the same period taxes have mount
ed, in some Instances as much as
400 per cent, and tariffs have gone
up twice since the war.
How the industrial east can con
template this picture of dwindling
income and declining values and
still wonder what has happened to
their prosperity is quite beyond tbe
comprehension of even the dumbest
bunny! How any group of business
men, economists or politicians can
view this picture of slow death and
fail to realize that this tendency
must be arrested, defies all under
standing! With the property values
and income of 25 million American
families cut in two, is it any wonder
that the cities are full of idle fac
tories and that millions of workmen
are walking the streets?
How long, oh Lord, shall this situ
ation continue? Perhaps it would
be more proper to inquire how long
agriculture can endure! Sioux City

COST OF CURIOSITY
Conditions cannot be absolutely
hopeless in a country where the peo
ple pay $125,000,000 per year to
fortune tellers, crystal gazers, read
ers of horoscopes, and others of that
ilk who prey on the minds of the
credulous. We evidently still have
plenty of money to throw away on
things not worth while.
Whether times be good or bad, the
fortune tellers and others who pro
fess ability to peer into the future
have plenty of business. Perhaps it
is because every normal person is in
terested in the future, so that the
urge to learn something about it, if
that were possible, is well nigh uni
versal. But it is not reasonable to
suppose that 125 million dollars an
nually is spent by people who really
believe that they can learn some
thing. For the curiosity about the
future is accompanied by curiosity
almost as urgent about anything
mysterious anything that is seem
ingly outside the zone of personal ex
perience and capacities.
Fortune tellers have attracted
and continue to attract a host of pat
ions who would strenuously deny
belief that the future can be fore
told, but who yet are interested in
the occasional evidences, deriving
from unknown meads and causes.
that tbose who practice prophecy do
hit it right" many times.
There is innate in humanity dis
trust of absolute rationality. We are
all conscious of the vast nescience
that underlies our knowledge and
present means of acquiring it. We
are greatly curious about possible
sources of knowledge yet undevelop
ed. And we pay a high price merely
to gratify curiosity.

President Hoover has flung out a
