WORLD NEEDS NOW
"THE HUMAN TOUCH"
The proposal of Dr. Albert Ein
stein that 25 of the world's great
est minds be picked as a committee
to recommend measures to meet the
problems of world depression, is one
that is calculated to intrigue theor
ists. If it is not practical, the diffi
culty cf measuring or weighing
minds is to blame.
However, one trouble is that nearly
all cf the men whom the world re
gards as having great minds are
specialists. In one held each of them
excels most rivals, perhaps is him
self excelled. It has always been so.
It is told of Sir Isaac Newton, the
greatest physicist of his time, that
when he built a houso he insisted
on two holes in the back door, a large
one for the grown cat and a small
one for the kitten.
- 1 he depression problems call for
k&ensitiveness " rat ner than great ness
cf 'ih'tellect; for' what 'can only b
defined as "the human" touch." The
world is suffering. Tho victims of
the general emergency know nothing
of Jeremy Eentham or Adam Smith.
They cannot diagnose economic sys
tems. They only realizs that they
are cold and hungry and miserable.
Also they have a profound distrust
of tho Great mind3. Yet each vic
tim i.; a unit in what we call civil
ization. Heart means more than mind. The
world leader who may arise to com
mand an overwhelming following
must feel with the depression vic
tims. That high intelligence is re
quired to prescribe remedies cannot
bo doubted, but diagnosis must come
first, and correct diagnosis means
sympathy, in the last analysis.

states. When the states are Bank
rupt, they proceed to demand funds
from tho federal government. But
it happens that the federal govern
ment itself is in the red, to the tune
of thousands of millions in the last
four years.
Therefore, the racketeers should be
Congress i: being urged to instruct
tho reconstruction finance corpor
poration to advance loans to states,
cities, counties and school districts
that are finding it difficult to main-
tain their public schools on the male
I
on which they have been run in re
cent years.
Tho mere fact that the local com
munities are unable to pay for their
schools seems to bo enough. No other
eidenco is presented to justify the
use of funds from the federal treas
ury. No one presents any evidence
whatever that the schools are worth
running on their present scale.
The confidence cf the educational
racket is cuperb. When the finances
of 'local communities break down,
they proceed to demand funds of the
required to show cause why they
should be supported In the style to
which they have become accustomed.
Granted that some public education
for every child is a social necessity,
why should It follow that the fright
fully expensive education of recent
years 13 a necessity? Before they are
permitted to seek new sources ' of
revenue, the educational racketeers
should prove beyond doubt that they
have cut expenses to the very bone;
otherwise tho public is likely to
crash in and cut down good things as
well as bad. Ealtimore Evening

RELUT m ACCORD- '
ANCE WITH NEEDS
The view of the country's relief
necd3 that was given a senate com
mittee by Charles A. Miller, presi
dent of the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation, is measurably reassur
ing and far more convincing as to the
approximate conditions than have
been the sensational accounts of cer
tain members of congress, accounts
that were made In behalf of some
proposal they were sponsoring. The
corporation president makes no at
tempt to show that tho situation is
being so dealt with that no person is
left In want; nor doe3 he contend
that there is :io need of additional
federal funds for relief at this time.
On the contrary, it was observed
that there doubtless are some in need
who have failed to ask for assistance,
and a supplementary fund of 150
million dollars was called for, that
amount being domed adequate to
take care of tho federal end of relief
until next December, when congress
could mr.k9 the further provision
then seen to be required. Thi3 is an
amount substantially below that pre
viously demanded from various
sources. If, with the assistance from
the states and local communities, it
should be found adequate, there is
no apparent reason now for author
ization of tho larger sums.
There should be no minimizing of
distress or of the suffering of those
without both work and the means of
subsistence. Yet. it is obvious that
there is a division of responsibility
in relief and that the government
should not assume an undue share of
it. What is demanded and must be
had, however, that measure of as
sistance required by the needs that
are found to be a reality.

KB. DE VALERA WESS
FREE STATS ELECTION
Mr. De Yalera skillfully dissolved
the dail and ordered a new election
at tho moment when hi3 adversaries
were least prepared; but, irrespective
of political stategy, he seems to have
been sustained by tho country to an
extent which might. have been "even
considerably greater were it not for
proportional representation.. Ha: has
Increased his parliamentary strength.
He may yet have a clear majority in
tho dail. At the worst, he v. ill again
only be dependent on his labor allies.
Tho expected reaction proved to ba
against Mr. Co3graveaad no asair.ct
the ' governments :Ilip votef ejll ;-;OfC
in: Cork. Dublin tel.ieyedr.-to-.be a
center of conservatism,. . showed a
surprising turn in - tho other .direc
tion. The ycur.g voters . stuck, to
191C and Sir. Da Valera and his
legend. There was a decided veering
of popular opinion.
In a cense, it may be said that
the freo state ran against England..
Mr. Cosgrave was represented as the
friend of England, and England un
doubtedly hoped fcr his victory.- Noi;
longer able to "rob" Ireland. by means,
of the annuities, eho was trying to
destroy her by means of her tariff.
The tariff, war, so injurious to Irish
agriculture and industries, produced
unforeseen political results. A na
tional ideal, a self-supporting Ire
land, was revived. However it may
turn out in practice if it is put in
to practice it appealed to national
sentiment. Mr. Cosgrave promised
the farmers remission of tho an
nuities for two years, reduction there
after by half. Mr. DeValera made
larger promises. . A root-and-branch
position was stronger than one cf
compromise.
One result of the English tariff ou
Irish good3 was. to lower the price of
meat, so that many poor farmers and
laborers were able to treat themselves
to this hitherto infrequent luxury.
Mr. De Yalera told his audiences
that chilled and frczon beef would
ultimately destroy tho English mar
ket for Irish live stock. He was ex
pected to make incendiary speeches.
Those that we have happened to read
were restrained and practical. In
view of the number of "armies' in
the Free State the elections were un
expectedly peaceful. The real dan
ger to Mr. DeValera in the immediate
future seems to be the Irish repub
lican army. The republicans support
ed him as a means of insuring the
complete separation of the Free State
from England and the commonwealth,
of nations. They will, interpret the
elections in. this sense.
However, Mr. De Valera is a
shrewd and . capable gentleman,
whose essential energy and vigor
were for a time obscured , by . his
metaphysical subtleties,- so baffling
in negotiation. His course cannot be
foreseen. He has notably checked
England. In particular Mr. Thomas,
secretary of state. for tho dominions,
has not distinguished himself . tor
wisdom in his .utterances about the
controversy with Ireland. The an
nuities are dead. So 13 the oath of
allegiance.. It only remain3 for the
British government to find ' some
means cf saving . its face. New
York Times.
STAND UP FOR "NEBRASKA
Would tho agricultural midwest
profit from a complete cessation of
foreign commerce, the result of boy
cotts and still higher tariffs?
A definite answer, it seems to U3,
is afforded in a letter received by this
newspaper from- George Marples, of
the Cudahy Packing company, Chi
cago. The letter follows:
"Just a line to congratulate
'you on your editorial in your is
sue of February 1 .entitled 'Is,
More. Poison the, Cure?' I un
derstand the president has ap
proved the report of the tariff
commission increasing the duty
on shoes imported, from Czecho
slovakia. The other day we had
p. letter from our agent in
Czechoslovakia intimating that
the government' there wa3 con
templating an increase in the
duty on American lard and no
doubt we shall scon be informed
; of an increase In that duty.
And in the meantime, notwith
standing cut salaries, lowered
wages, and unemployment, we
shall have to pay more for Am
erican shoes and tho farmers
will receive still les3 for their
hog3 and lard. Certainly not a
very good way to help the farm
er out of the depression.
"In 192S and 1929 the Unit
ed States exported to Cuba S0,
000,000 pound3 of lard and
bought sugar in return. In 1032
the export was approximately
22,000,000 pounds or lard. We
won't buy their sugar, they
can't buy our lard."
It is .just as plain and simple as
that two plus two equals four.
The tighter -we -dose our markets
against foreign imports, the tighter
we close them against our own agri
cultural exports to pay for those im
ports. ,
Our agricultural products com
mand a present price of 50 per cent
below normal as. compared with the
present price of industrial products.
And the moro brutally we throttle
trade, tho wider becomes the dispar
ity. Industrial - prices higher; farm
prices still lower; , . -

Hoy.- are we going to help ourselves
by throwing in with the propaganda
for higher pricey for the products of
the Pacific ccastand of the Atlantic
coast, resulting in relatively, if not
actually, still lower- prices for the
products cf curiavn section?
Wq quote from a "Washington dis
patch to tho Kansas City Star:
,. the' swing away '-from high tar
iffs just. : beooming noticeable.
i:i seuiiagricujtural regions. .
"The national committee of
the ' grain Exchanges . . . has
. taken the stand that the test
'out for agriculture is. to re-
' store the foreign market for farm
products. And to accomplish
that it is advocating a policy
. which would' lead to the impor
tation of foreign manufactured
goods. to create such a market
for farm' products abroad.
"Coupled ivith this develop
ment and'it is.not confined to
the grain trade, but threatens to
spread into the ranks of those
who ' sell farm machinery and
supplies- is the incipient revolt
among midwsstem republican
congress members against the
proposal to offset depreciated
currencies by automatically hik
ing tariff rates against coun
, tries . with depreciated curren
cies. A Kansas republican. Rep
resentative Harold McGugin, led
this revolt. "Standing almost
alone two weeks ago, he new has
with him a" group of republicans
from Minnesota. Iowa and the
Daliotas and of course the dem
ocrats . from the southern agri
cultural states.
"When the tariff fight breaks
out in the next or succeeding
conferee it is likely to split both
political -parties wide open, and
wind up with. the Atlantic and
Pacific coast states, plus (other)
industrial sections, on the one
ride, and the agricultural Mis
sissippi vallejv Gulf and -southwest
states clamoring for lower
tariff rates and a foreign trade
policy that will afford an out
let for farm products abroad."
It is the privilege of the indus
trial coast states' to clamor for still
higher tariffs if they wish, though
they should have learned a lesson
from 'their pit.-jOTit distress. When
they crippled our agriculture they
crippled the gooso that laid their
golden eggs. If they slay agriculture
they will kill the goose and their
own demise will shortly follow.

OVERLOADED
It is time to give a little serious
thought to the statement, made so
often these days, that the property
taxation system has broken down.
And, if the system has broken down,
it Is time to discover why.
It is true that tax payments are
at an uncommonly low ebb. Four
Nebraska counties had paid less than
half of their state taxes last July
1 (end of the fiscal year) two
months aftor these taxes had become
delinquent. A dozen others had paid
only a little more than half, and the
majority had paid only about two
third3 of the total amounts due.
That is truly an alarming situa
tion. It would not be amiss to con
sider the factors back of it.
There are four types of charges
against productive real estate in both
city and county. Each piece of prop
erty must produce:
1 A living for the tenant (wheth
er owner or lessor).
2 Enough income to pay taxos.
3 Enough inccmo to pay the
overhead. (To buy necessary ma
chinery, keep it in repair, and pay
for whatever utility service is im
perative.) 4 Enough incomo to yield a rea
sonable return to the owner and an
additional profit for the tenant
(whether owner or lessor.)
Nebraska real eotato now um't;
yielding enough to pay all tho;o ac
counts in full, liz yield is reduced
because the incomes of the pecplo are
reduced. Tenants can't make much
money, so they can't pay cut much.
However, with regard to the farm
tax situation, certain facts are ap
parent. One iz thut the fertility of
the land has not been impaired. In
dustrious tenants can still produce
their cvrn foods. Zo thsre ij ::o Lu:i-
;ger in tue farm country.
Another n that most farm still
produce enough saleable surplus, be
yond the needs cf tho tenant to pay
a reasonr.blo tax h'li (allhcurrh net
large enough to pry the v:.x hill de
manded in soma count!::) ar.d the
inescapable overhead cpe:.se.
But no farm in Nebraska can pro
duce enough to pry thce items, and
also pay the capital cl aias at the
1929 rate. So there i3 an inevitable
conflict for the farmers' dollar.-. The
tax collector and the investor, togeth
er, demand more dollars than there
are.
Tho investors, reluctant to take
the s&rjl rcJiJiivyiBstjrg
in:other kinds of securities havo been
forced to take, want to elbow the. tax
collector aside. Co they say to hmi,
"Look at that fcllcw over there. He
has lots cf money. Go and et him."
They want a ccrnpclitcr to leave the
scene.
As a matter cf cold fact, one rea
son tho farriers aro having such a
bad time is because the city folks
are having sreh a tad tlrno. If the
people in the cities and towns were
being paid at the 1929 rato, the farm
ers could sell their milk and butter
and hogs, and would ha able to pay
their taxes. But the town people
don't have their old incomes. Thou
sands cf NeLra:l;a families are de
pendent on charity, ar.d thousands
of others don't knew from one week
to the next v.-hen they will be forced
to call for cutnido aid.
The financial trcublcs cf the land
owners are lirecily related to the
fact there is le demand for farm
products. And there is less demand
because tho city and town workers
don't have enough money to buy.
Hew will it help the land owners
position to try to increase the taxes
of tho"e city ar.d town workers?
