When they Inquired how they could get along without tho hand3 that had been taken for tho army, they were in structed to purchase labor-saving machinery. Banks, they were told, would lend money. So the farmers bought S3 they had never bought before. Farm mortgages tell the stcry from $3,320, 470.000 in 1010 they Jumped to $7,857,700,000 in 1920. Then, in 1920 and 1921, came tho drive for deflation. The federal restrva Loard's vigorous campaign against wartime prices is a matter of common knowledge. It is loss well known tint tho board in 1921 called upon the member bank3 in the farm fcelt to repay their borrowings in 30 days! Fcrmcrs, acked in turn to take up their loar.s, flooded the mar ket with goods; prices broke agair. and again. Then tho unheard-of happened in the affaii-3 of agriculture. Chattel mortgages went bad! Thf30 liquid assets had long been so desirable that they had always ccld readily to banks throughout tho United States. As they were indorsed by the issuing bank3 these home banks were forced to crrume the losses. For their own protection the bank3 in many In stance.! could do no better than take second mortgage- on farms. That Is how "frozen assets' entered the stcry of hanking in tho farm belt. If prices had ricen again the bank3 could have worked off theso mortgages, but prices never did. And so began first, in tho Missouri valley region a3 long ago as 1923, the bank failures which by 1332 had made their way the length and breadth of the land. De posits were lost and receivers called unpaid loans. Foreclosures of farm mortgages followed; they have con tinued ever since, growing ito appall ing numbers In the last two years. Why, since the whole country was extraordinarily prospcrou3 from 1923 to 1929, did the farmer not pay off his debts during thoso six years? Tho question is pertinent; its answer embodies the correct analysis of the farm problem of today. Farm prices were deflated In 1921 and remained deflated; the cost of goods which thOj farmer was obliged to purchase never ha3 fallen proportionately.- William' Roy Ronald in Current History. unmade In Ger- :o Tho new deal started off with the Jack left out. :o:- A defendant's idea of a grand Jury is the one that says "not guilty." :o: Tfitlpr now has the power of a Mussolini in all regions except above the ears. -:o:- Tha "nas?inz eeneration" is so called because or the debts it i3 pass ing along to the next. :o: All kind3 cf social knowledge and graces are useful, but one of the best i3 to bo able to yawn with your mouth closed. :o: Things could be far worse.

PRIME raPOHTANCE OF FOREIGN MARKETS We" have no objection to ''settling domestic questions" as rapidly as they can be settled. ,. But .we- are, of the opinion that'the biggest "domes tic question" for Texas Is the foreign market for. it3 products. We sold more than six hundred dollars worth of our products abroad to every fam ily in the state, in 1928, and in 1932 we sold only a little more than two hundred dollars worth abroad to the family. It Is difficult to see how we can recover anything approaching prosperity without recovering some thing of that foreign trade. And a3 recovering that foreign trade has a direct relation to tho ability of for eign nations to buy our products, it stems to us that any question af fecting their ability in this respect i3 a "domestic question" with us. In any event, we are sure it is not a question that can be postponed, if wo are going to have any real do mestic recovery. However, wo say all this more or lcs3 a3 a reminder. We appreciate that the new administration is Just gotting under way, and wo arc not asking for any miracles. But it will bo recalled that It wa3 found nec essary for President Roosevelt to con fer with President Hoover on two oc casions prior to his inauguration, and to break all precedents by having representatives of foreign govern ments confer with Mr. Roosevelt while ho was still a private citizen, and that the reason for all this un precedented procedure was the urg ency of international economic ques tions. Wa are given to understand that the preparations for. our parti cipation In the world economic con ferences and for conferences on ad justing intergovernmental debts were to go forward even befcra the in auguration. Since tho inauguration, however, we have not been hearing so much abcut all this, and there seems to bo a growing public opinion that, after all, these matters aro not as import ant as they seemed. That Is mistaken opinion, and Its growth could become an obstacle In the way of recovery. It 13 isuch considerations that prompt us to raise the question as to what the "new deal" will mean to foreign trade, and to call attention ;gain to. tho circumstances that thl3 in really the big question, bo far 33 Texa3 Is concerned. ' It Is really the big question for all the cotton-growing states . As a matter of fact, it Is our opinion that it is the big ques tion for the country as a whole. Dur ing the three years of the depres sion under President Hoover, we said repeatedly that there could be no re covery except world recovery. It Is quite a3 tru under President Roose velt.

The world at this time and in many lands is showing intolerance and showing hate. It seems some times that love has almost de serted the human bosom. It seems that hate has taken its place. It i3 only for a time, gen tlemen, because in the great thing3 in life no matter what they are, it is God's great prin ciples, matters of eternal right, that alone live. Wrong dies and truth forever lasts, and . we should have faith in that." It was an Alabama Judge who said that, a white man,.a gentleman of the oldest American stock.. Judge Horton, in charging the Jury, was speaking only of the exhibitions of race prejudice in the course of the trial cf the unfortunate Negroes who n-pr convicted of assaulting two white women at Scottsboro, but ; he might have been speaking for and to all the world. Not in many year3 perhaps not in centuries, have there been such violent outbreaks of racial hatreds as have been manifesting themselves in these troublous times. In Germany the Nazi government ha3 proclaimed its hatred cf the Jews to the point of barring them, from almost every phase of the national life. Between the Germans and the Poles hatred is co intense that when the shadow of a German flag, on the Polish border, fell upon Polish soil, there was an in dignant protest by the Polish govern ment! Tho Italian people are devel oping a new national pride which has racial intolerance as its foundation. And we do not need to point to the racial hatreds which have barred the Orientals from Australia and the United States. We do not by any means advocate oneninc the doors to all sorts and conditions of men, but we do believe that these racial hatreds are a step backward and not forward in the world's progress. We believe that it is possible for all tho peoples of the wcrld to cet along amicably, since we are all in the world iand can't get out of it. If It prove3 impossible, be cause of the stirring up of racial hatreds by prejudiced or malicious interests, then we can see ,nothin ahead but' a complete collapse of civ ilization -as Ve know it and a re turn, to the Dark ASes when every man's hand was turned against hi3 brother., , ' S I - jfcr 4 -i rft y ;y t -Vy METCALFE SINKS HIS ! PERSONAL "AMBITION For 40 years. Mayor Richard ti. Metcalfe has typified the fighting man hero in -' Nebraska. He found joy in battle. In the political arena, he never dodged a battle when the strone personal convictions he possessed were at stake. It has seemed on many occasions that he derived a joy from exchang ing verbal blow3 with a political an tagonist, that he never was quito so happy as when he wa3 in tho center of a smoke-covered field in" savage fray. There Is a surprise, therefore, that after having won a right to con test for re-election in the preliminary runoff .in the Omaha municipal elec tion, he should announce hi3 retire ment, and in doing so explains that he i3 withdrawing because of an cmorcency which has arisen and which - "may involve the good order and fame of this city." It is char acteristic of Dick Metcalfe to subor dinate his own personal ambition to what he conceives to bo the public good. A more rrallant. a more un selfish, and a more chivalrou3 poli tical warrior never lived. As to the emergency to which Mr. Motcalfo refers, the Omaha World- Herald explains: "It is the possibility, if not in deed the probability, of the election next month of a city administration controlled by Commissioner Roy Towl, with Mr. Towl himself pre siding over it as naj'or for tho com ing tnreo year3. There are many thoughtful citizens who view that prospect with apprehension. They are prompted, for the most part, not by any dislike for Mr. Towl person ally. But they are fearful to entrust the welfare and the srood order of the city to a man of his exceedingly mercurial temperament, his emotion al and msntal instability, his dis position to go off thoughtlessly at radical tangents, his inability to work in harmony and constructively with his associates." Whether those criticisms are well grounded, wo can 'not-say,' but it is a most unusual, most extraordinary sacrifice which Dick Metcalfe has made. It climaxes a long career, in which he.has battled boldly for what he conceived to be the ,good of tbe stat9 and. the community In which he lives.

Why chould I rpend my money In my home town? Namely: This money is used to build up our town. I think in the past few weeks we have an example of our merchants kindness and their confidence in U3. Do you think a mail order hcuse or an Om aha firm would have extended credit to us when we wrere without funds to meet these needs, when the banks were closed and money could not be secured to meet these necositios of life? The merchants of our town are willing to help and do their part and more. When we spend cur money at home, this In reiurn helps to pay our taxes, keeps cur city lighted, protects our homes by paying for police pro tection, sanitation in water and cleanliness of tho city. They also help to support the fire d?partni2nt to pro tect our homes from fire. Wo also find cur home products placed for sale in our stores. Theso products have como from places like the canning factory, basket factory and other , homo Indu-trisa- You would not find these for sale in a mail-order store.- Such industries help the. financsn of our tovrn, also helps to create hcne interests. Our merchants are-alvaya ready to con tribute for fund3 for our. social func tions as during the. Kern Karnival held last fall, see what vm expended for our pleasure. Do you think the outside merchant would do this for us? No you go to another city, and you pay for your p'ea3ure you get there. Also ceo what they do for charity. Does that mail order man take care cf them fcr ycu? One mer chant stated he had fitted a number of boys cut with shoes and clothes when they enne in and were in such ragged condition. Our merchants spend money to help maintain, our schools. They have to pay an occupation tcx, so each business houzo is a he'p to our com munity. How much hotter it looks to go into a town where one can see the business buildings Hllcd instead of being vacant. If our ir.cr.ey is spent elsewhere do ycu think it is going to fill thfo empty store buildings? I think if you cemct'raes compare home prices with thoce cf Omaha you will find things ju.t as cheap and sometimes chenper. They may bo able to give ycu greater selection to buy from, but 3cu f;o there and go from one store to another get tired and then maybe come hemo with some thing you r.ro not ratisfied with, while ycu can take your time and look for things In your own town.

In' this 6.2.-J of keen competition . . .. my come town mcrcnant seii3 me goods as cheap as I can buy in other W - markets; therefore, there is no rea son for my going away from home to buy. If I buy home manufactured goods, I am increasing the purchasing power of the manufacturer and laborer which is reflected to me. Having been a buyer in my home town, if misfortune should overtake me, the home town merchant would extend me credit which I could not get in foreign towns. My prosperity, if I be a merchant, professional man, or laborer, depends greatly upon prosperity of the com munity in which I live. So let us take a personal pride in this my home town, and community. I will not do one thing to deflect from its prosperity.
