While' agricultural production was approxi fiiakly one-half of the total national output, n I v 1 per crntjof all credit accommodations from all f oiirccs were given to agriculture in I9.T0. Tin's is an important joint in the con-' trovrrsy between Governor McKetvie and W. T. G. Harding, the head of the Federal Reserve system. The discrimination which bore heaviest on the farmers was not so much in interest rates as in the distribution of credit facilities. Many producers of foodstuffs could tiot get loans at all and were forced to throw their products on the market at unfavorable (imes. i1" , It is true that the Federal Reserve board has given accommodations to agriculture and related interests in farming sections somewhat greater (hau its accommodations to other business, but it is to be questioned whether the accommoda tion was proportionate to the greater volume of production in agriculture. , ' . All over this country, south, north, east and vest, the farmers are in a resentful mood against the conduct of the Federal Reserve, system. They believe ' there was a concerted policy to refuse credit on unsold farm products, and that this policy was carried out both by member banks and non-members until it was found that it threatened general ruin. The distribution of credit, as analyzed before a congressional cofii- mittce by John Skclton Williams, former comp troller oi the currency, has favored the east at the expense of the west and south. Rates as high as 30 per cent paid for speculative loans in .N'ew York drained credit money from all parts of the country. . Mr, Williams quotes from the records to show that a year aao, when agricultural sec- ' tion$ were pleading for help, the national batiks , bl New York, Chicago and St. Louis had re celved . accommodations, chftfly- from 'the Re serve system,' to the extent of 24 per cent of their total loins and discounts. At the same time the country banks' in the system, number ing over 7,000, had received accommodation through rediscounts and bills payable amounting to only 10 per cent of their total loans and dis counts. I' There has. been some improvement in this "situation in the last several months, due, most westerners will think, more to the efforts of farm organizations and others who have pointed ' out the disastrous consequences of the old pol icy. The bitter recrimination with which Gov ernor Harding has jnct the suggestions of Gov ernor McKelvie Serves to illustrate the stubborn disinclination to yield that has characterized the working of this Reserve system which has in it so many splendid but unrealized possibilities. When Charles S. Barrett, ' president of the National Farmers' Union, was "recently in Omaha, he declared in his. picturesque Georgia way that, "The Farmers" of the country were going to have the hide of Governor W. P. G. Harding 011 a pole," The acerbity of the official in question appears to indicate that the process of lifting the hide has begun. - " 'f: ' rive nionths since that lime hat amounted to only $I0,M0, whereat in the previous year it .4 totaled U.0u0,000. Since this firm petition was taktn, few bandits have been shot, but most of them have been forced into other lines o( industry and there have not been o many attempted at formerly. The saving to the government has been considerable, which suggest! that perhaps Budget Director Dawes might borrow a few armed mail clerks to guard against raids on the national treasury. tMBjaJMBaJBBOMMaaaM ' . World Relations Imperative. When Messrs. Borah and Johnson arrayed themselves agaiiut 'the League of Nations he cause of the fact that it would entangle the United States in European affairs, they rested their ease on the advice given by George Wash ington in h "Farewell Address." Opposing the recently - negotiated treaties between the United States 011 the one side and Germany, Austria and Hungary on the other, these gen tlemen again invoke the spirit of the first presi dent of the republic . In this they are joined by Shields of Tennessee and others, not all of whom have shown the consistency that marks the trio of sturdy advocates for complete isolation. What they object to in the pending treaties is the provision that will permit the United States to be represented on the reparation com mission. This, they hold, necessarily implies participation in European politics. To' sustain ucb a view a rather strained construction must lc given the purpose of reparation. Admitting, though, that the presence of the United States at any session of such a commission does bind us to the agreement there reached, have we not an interest in such proceedings? As active parties to the war, moving in common with our associates, do we not yet hold some share in the settlement of that, war? Not only that, but in the future problems that may arise as a result of the war? The Wilson program would have surren dered to a super-government some measure of our national independence; the Harding plan permits, us to take our proper place at the coun cil tabic, not bound in advance by a policy agreed upon by others, but free to act as right and justice require. The United States cannot evade its responsibility to the rest of the world; it must assume a definite and helpful attitude towards Europe as well as to nations elsewhere, and must sustain a full share of the "white man's burden." 1 Such a course does not iuvolve entangle ment with foreign nations" to our own danger or detriment. We can be friendly with all, helpful to all, share in all discussions and ad justments, and sacrifice nothing of our own independence or jeopardize any of our liberties. But we can not selfishly look with indifference on proceedings across the sea on either side of us. Our relations to the world arc imperative, for our destiny has ' broken down the barriers that isolated our country from the "world. Where to Lookfor Rescue. Among the things that could not have been put better is a sentence of M. L. Corey of the Federal Land bank in hi speech to Nebraska bankers at Grand Island. "If one pulls a drown ing man from the water, he does not wait to re vive him until he may order', a putmotor from Washington,? Said Mr. "-.Corey. Business 1. haS been' in deep' water for some time, and. -some lines, as agriculture, have . taken considerable water into the lungs, ;.: ' First aid quite properly should be expected from those nearest at hand. Cheapecand better credit, more efficient marketing and a spirit of neighborly co-operation -instead of back-biting, mutual aid as well as self-help, are among the correctives that are ready at hand. ',': America is an immense country, and neither all the governing nor all the relief can be centered . in the national capital. It is in the nature of great bodies to .move slowly, and prompter ac tion as well as that more suited to special needs is to be anticipated from smaller units. Not everything that goes wrong is to be blamed on the national administration, nor can it unaided by individual and local efforts be expected to . right everything. " ' . , ; Foiling Mail Robbers. , . While it is "beyond reason to give credit; for such . things as fine fall -' weather or food trops to the republican administration, and while it is customary for partisans to claim . great many other things without reserve, yet Postmaster General Hays does not go a bit loo far , in taking credit for .practically putting an end to robberies' o mail cars. Omaha and Council Bluffs have not forgotten the plunder taken from I train here a few months ago by a gang of bandits. It is also remembered that there was an epidemic of - such depredations about that time. , - ' ; Then came the announcement of-the post master' general that postal employes ' were to go armed and that heavy rewards would be posted for any railway mail thieves who man- r, Democrats and Tax Revision. It is quite interesting to note that the attack on the revenue bill in the senate from the demo cratic side is Jed by Walsh of Massachusetts and Gerry of Rhode Island. Simmons of North Carolina, who was chairman of the finance com mittee of the senate when the present law was framed, is silent for the moment, and Overman, Pou and others from, the south appear to have, temporarily relinquished leadership to their northern colleagues, although the battle has not gone far enough to develop , the tactics to be followed by the opposition.' The .Gerry amendment, ; however, exposes the insincerity of assertions made by the local mouthpiece of the unterrifiea1. Here we have been told that the purpose of the bill is to take the burden of taxation off the wealthy and the corporations, and add it- to the load already borne by the poor. Senator Gerry, defending his proposal for a new form of corporation ta, explains that his plan will relieve 195,000 cor porations and lay it on 4,000 others To com pensate for loss of revenue; he wjll lay a tax of 1 per' cent per gallon on gasoline at its source. Following out a rule laid down by the previous administration for estimating the cost to the consumer of an 'increase at. the source, this would mean S cents a gallon by the time the gasoline reached the consumer's tank. As has been the experience in the added tobacco and similar taxes, to collect $1 for the government, the law would permit the taking of $5 by the various hands through which the article passes on its way from source to consumption. The Walsh amendment to lower the normal rate on incomes below $15,000 may be looked upon as a "talking point" for the-democrats. The bill as presented by the republicans takes good care of the family man of small income, and lays no undue pressure on those whose means are limited. As the debate progresses, the atti tude of the democrats will undoubtedly be more clearly revealed as merely one of opposition.

The conclusion was that growth ia one thing, rickets Is an other, and food is not a major fac tor in rickets. Conversely, when ricketty chil dren and i-lckettcd animals were slowly burned into a mahogany brown by sunlight they got well. The conclusion is that sunlight will cure rickets and also plenty of sunlight will prevent rickets. From several places in Europe re ports confirming Hess' position posi tion, have come.

One is that Detroit, on the basis of a tax assessment just made, estimates the Ford fortune at $750, 000,000. The other is that the price of flivvers is again reduced, and that a touring car is now pur chasable for $355. ' The two items might it would seem, be profit ably studied by muddled economists of the radi cal type who hold that when a man grows rich it necessarily means that he is a robber. Busi ness men say that as industry is' prevailingly car ried on in this country the way to. wealth is to produce an article or a service at a lower cost than others, and to command the market by di viding the saving with the public But the voice of the agitator is loud and its noise downs out the arguments. Congress passes tax laws spe cially penalizing those who get high profits through profit sharing. " Much is said of the hardships flowing from the business depression. A hard winter is fore seen. There is much discussion of measures of amelioration. About the most effective one that can be conceived of is to turn the managerial genius of the country loose to produce as economically as it can. Such release would tend to keep, wages up and prices down and to give every worker a job. What else will? New York Tribune. I . . Tapping Won't Help Her. Mrs. S. writes: "My aunt has been ill with heart disease for the last three months. -Her legs, abdomen, and hands are swollen. The doctor says it would bo useless to tap her, as she would fill right up again.' Others .say tapping would relieve her for a short while, anyway, if it didn't cure-her, for that is impossi ble. I think she would get a little stronger if this poison was got out, tind believe in tapping her. What would you think in tfiis case?" REPLY, : - In dropsy due to heart disease as a rule it is wrong to tap. The tap wound heals poorly. The water in the tissues is not poisonous. It is the same water and salts as ero to make up the blood, In part..

For . Parents to Read. , Pessimist wries: "Alarm clocks are cheap. I have t often wondered why my mother did 'not buy one and have it wake me once or oftener in the night, rather ' than have me humiliated and shamed by the ter rible affiotion of bed wetting. For nothing could be more humiliating to a sensitive child than this afflic tion, and I do not doubt that some of the unexplained tragedies of child suicide so often reported are due to it. . But neither you ncr anybody else who has not thus suffered can understand. My whole life has been embittered, although my affliction passed away at puberty. Anyway, even if a child sleeps too soundly to be awakened by the clock, It is the duty of the parents to awaken it, for have they not inflicted upon it. without its consent, the horrors of human existence?" Give Tomato Juice, Too. 1 Mrs. M. S. writes: "What shall I feed my 8 -months-old baby? She weighs 23 pounds and S ounces and she is breast fed." She only sleeps 15 minutes at a time." REPLY. In addition to breast milk, an 8-months-old healthy baby should have fruit juice, strained canned tomato juice, cereals, strained vege table soup, and hard bread. She must be kept more quiet and get more sleep. Do not feed oftener than every four hours. When Midgets Marry. T. B. wriee: "If midgets marry, will their offspring also be midgets?" REPLY. Yes, in most cases. If all grand parents as well as parents are small, the children are .more apt to be small. Many midgets are incapable of parentage. CENTER SHOTS. You never can tell.

To the Editor of The Bee: A party who signs him self with a I jit hi prescription, wants ine to quote tho identical Latin words that Caesar used when he said that .J.he Irish were forever f-polling for a fight. I am not going to doit. In the first place, I do not know what I did with tho Latin pony I used in high school, and in the second place, if I. found those words for him he would probably want me to find some other Latin quota tions, probably the original words of "I ranie, I saw, I conquered." or "All Gaul is divided into three parts." There is no stopping such a person. Then after he had gotten through with that he indicates that he would badger me to fix the date of the dawn of history. No, elr, I I won't do it There has probably never been an observer no matter how punk, and Julius Caesar was not. that kind, who did hot pronounce the Irish as forever spoiling for a light. If we did not have Caesar's word for it in his Commentaries, which we have, we. would all know that ' he made this remark. Everybody makes It But I never before knew an Irish man to take offense at it. In fact, fighting is the Irishman's middle name. It is taught in every Irish family by precept and example' and the eighteenth amendment is the only thing that has evor threatened to undermine this national charac teristic. However, if this Latin Quotation still wants to fight it out I will pass the bucfe to the author of my statement, ono Hilary Har dwire, whose name listens Irish. - The quotation is taken from a book of his entitled "Julius Caesar, Who He Was, and W hat He Accom- ' plished." These are the words: "That the conquest was not per fectly stable and complete Caesar must have known, ''for the Gallic spirit is ever spoiling for a fight,' and their mind is unstable and very un prepared to endure calamities'." The editor, E. Hakleman-Julius, in a foot note adds "Caesar's judgment on the Celtic race would not be con sidered as unfounded or careless generalization on Its members to day." - I like. to be accommodating, but that does not mean that I want to fight. I am not Irish nor am I a literary I'narisee. BENTON BROWN.

" The scholarly Prof. Barrett Wen dell of that seat of learning wrote in his history of American literature that a play made from Harriet Beecher Stowe's book was still he had been told performed in coun try places. Professor Wendell, a brilliant and perceptive critic, was of a temper too aristocratic to appreciate ' the Arm hold of "Uncle Tom's- Cabin" in play-form as in book-form on the public imagination, Dickens' Little Nell and Mrs. Stowe's Little Eva have become epic figures, taken to the heart and en shrined in the sentimental fancy of the people. It's of no avail to come along with high-brow language and tell the host of readers that they are sawdust dolls. Don't you remember- the first time you saw "Uncle Tom's Cabin?" Perhaps it was also the last and yet for the two pivotal characters of the negro slave and the little white girl of his worshipful devotion ' there were scenes whose pathos only the hard hearted and the sophisticated could resist. In fact, some versions of the play relieve the strain on the pocket-handkerchief by introducing to the astonished spectator two Topsys and , two of pretty nearly everybody in the cast except Uncle Tom and Litle Eva. Our last ex perience was with a production that introduced the violent comedy relief of a Cakewalk directly after the deathbed and angelic transformation sec-tie. When the American public ceases to care for Stephen Foster's songs and no longer wants to hear of the plantation, then nobody will patron ize the play or read the book.
