the joy recorded by the medieval Yule
Log, but what of the vast toll of death
from tuberculosis in those days it
could record. Then this disease rav
aged the world bringing death and de
struction in its wake, often wiping out
a quarter of the population in one
year. This is the story the 1933
Christmas Seal could tell did it choose
to recite the sad with the gay of the
period it pictures. Today, unlike the
times of the barons, science knows
what causes tuberculosis, it knows
how to prevent it and today thru the
activities of the Christmas Seal, the
death rate from tuberculosis has been
cut more than two-thirds.

Johnson Talks On NRA
In The Smaller Towns
In explaining the exemption of
small merchants in small towns, Na
tional Recovery Administrator Hugh
S. Johnson said in part:
“Ihe recovery program came at a
time when low prices were crushing
agriculture, when in cities and towns
there was the greatest unemployment
we have ever known, when debt and
closed banks were slowing activity in
cities and on farms, and destructive
business practices, due to depression,
threatened many industries. The re
covery program was designed to go
to the heart of each trouble. To farm
ers it gave the adjustment and farm
loan acts. To the unemployed it gave
the recovery act, which permitted the
wiping out of unfair trade practices.
The banking and financial legislation
attacked the problem of debt and froz
en deposits for both farm and city.
Of course, more wages mean increased
costs and higher prices. We must
remember that when we started many
prices were at panic low, levels at
which neither industry nor labor could
live. Of this broad program NRA is
but a part. It has nothing to do with
farm prices or public works, oil ad
ministration, or the home and farm
loan acts, etc. It is solely connected
with industrial organization for econ
omic planning and control with re
employment.
A book is not judged by its
cover, nor a man by bis ap
pearance. Theone is weighed
by its contents—the other by
bis bank account.
THE
O’NEILL NATIONAL
BANK
Capital, Surplus and Undivided Profits,
$125,000.00
This bunk carries no indebted
ness of officers or stockholders.
“The nature of the farm problem,
with its annual crops, makes its solu
tion slower. But after 4 months we
find there are some things NRA can
do in aid of the farmer and the rural
merchant. Our experience shows that
the amount of reemployment and
wage increases in establishments em
ploying not more than 5 persons in
towns of less than 2,600 population
is not enough to offset the hardship
entailed. The President is asking
those who can do so to continue under
the former rule. By all others the
Blue Eagle with the exemption chev
ron may be displayed. This should
relieve the farmer of retail mark-ugs
due to increased expense. Our ex
perience also shows wide misinforma
tion about the extent of wholesale and
retail price increases. Now that most
of the great codes are in, it will be
much easier than ever before not only
to investigate but actually to prevent
undue wholesale price increases. The
President has directed that this be
done at once.
