Views of Congress...
By Dr. A. L. Miller, M. C.
^ Members of Congress who are
trying to help the farmer get a
fair break with these government
agencies set up to i
control everything
are getting a little
tired of hearing
inflation blamed
on the farmers.
Commit tees in
each House are
about to throw
some light on pri
ces the producer
gets in contrast to
what foods are selling for on the
city markets. For sake of com
parison here are some of the pri
ces Washington housewives are
paying for fresh vegetables: To
matoes, cucumbers and string
beans, 35 cents per pound; sweet
potatoes, 10 cents; asparagus, 39
cents, and green belt peppers, 45
cents. Four little red beets cost
17 cents, and four onions about
the size of your thumb, 25 cents.
Cabbage is 15 cents per pound.
Eggs are 58 cents a dozen.
The two-man Japanese submar
ine captured during the sneak at
tack on Pearl Harbor, December
7, 1941, was displayed on the Cap
itol plaza Saturday, April 3. In
spite of a raw windy day—windy
days are raw in Washington—a
large crowd gathered to see it.
It is 80 feet long, armed with tor
pedoes. Naval men do not think
it practical.
The Honorable Karf Stefan,
Third Nebraska District, made
some very timely remarks in the
House on April 5. In an able ad
dress he said in part:
“I greatly fear that future
events will bring a bitter disap
pointment to the American farm
ers who in past years have been
encouraged to believe the protec
tive tariff has given them real
protection, and who believed the
American agricultural market be
longs first to them. I fear the
blow which shattered this hope
of American farmers in protec
tion of their home market came
in a statement of the Vice Pres
ident of the United States, Henry
A. Wallace. In that statement he
indicated that a program of new
uses for American farm products
was not the policy of the Ameri
can government. Mr. Wallace in
dicated that the substitute and
synthetic materials program we
are now undertaking would be
eliminated at the end of the war,
and the American market for
those synthetic or substitute ma
terials would be turned over to
those countries where the natural
materials are produced.”
In another place, referring to a
bill making appropriations for the
State, Justice and Commerce de
Dartments, he said: “In this bill
Is included a cultural relations
program (for South America) the
like of which has never been
imagined by American taxpay
_ __ »*
ers.
Mr. Stefan further pointed out
that foreign cartels already or
ganized, unless broken up, would
take over the two billions of
American money now invested in
South America nad place it with
a few prvate groups, probably

European, because American com
ganies have agreed to get out of
outh America after the war. Un
less we have some experienced
men, with an eye single to the in
terest of our own country, look
ing after these things we stand
to lose everything.
From statements made by the
President and echoed by the
news and radio commentators one
would think that the passage of
the Bankhead bill would bring
an immediate jump in the cost
of living, when as a matter fact
the bill affects only wheat and
corn and would amount in an in
crease of only 190 million dollars
if the whole crop were sold on
the market. The President just
signed an act granting an in
crease in wages to one group of
federal workers, which means an
increase in cost to the taxpayers
of 600 million dollars and that is
just a beginning. It does not take
into account the many increases
in wages granted to industrial
workers which go directly into
increased costs. Increased buying
power tends directly to inflation.
As the presidents of the four lead
ing farm organizations said in
their letter to Senator Bankhead
urging the Senate to override the
President's veto:
“It is most unfortunate that
again and again the American
farmer has been attacked and ac
cused of responsibility for infla
tion. It is apparent that once
more agriculture is to be used as
the whipping-boy to further ap
pease the wage demands of or-,
ganized labor and to divert at
tention from the real source of
inflation.”

Pioneer Couple Celebrates
Their Golden Wedding
Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Fullerton
celebrated their golden wedding
anniversary Sunday, April 4, at
their farm home about 7 miles
northeast of Atkinson. Present at
the anniversary dinner in honor
of the occasion were Mrs. Fuller
ton’s sister, Mrs. Otto Pfeiffer of
Gordon; Mrs. Raymond Robey of
Gordon; Paul Fillmore and fam
ily of Mitchell, S. D.; Stanley Ful
lerton and Mr. and Mrs. F. E.
Skrdla of Atkinson.
Bertha Gates and James B. Ful
lerton were married at the home
of the bride’s parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Charles Gates, north of At
kinson, on April 4, 1893. The Rev.
O. T. Moore, Methodist minister,!
performed the ceremotiy. Mrs.
Fullerton’s parents owned and
built a home on what is now the
V. C. Wilbern ranch, known then
as the Kane place.
For two and a half years after
their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Ful
lerton lived on the farm now
owned by Mrs. Chas. Shane. They
then purchased the place on
which they now live, and have
resided there for the past forty
seven and a half years. They are
the parents of five children, three
of whom are living. They are:
Stanley, World War I veteran, at
home; James, of Gordon; Mrs.
Raymond Robey, the former Miss
Olive Fullerton, of Gordon. Two
daughters, Mrs. Robt. Wilson and
Mrs. Paul Fillmore, died several
years ago.—Atkinson Graphic.
JUST 90 YEARS AGO
Just ninety years ago Commo
dore Perry, on behalf of our gov
ernment, welcomes Japan into
the society of nations. America
thus struck the bonds of feudal-1
ism from a nation which has re
paid that act of decency with
ruthless hatred; which through
the following nine decades has
single-mindedly plotted the de
struction of its benefactors; and
which, on “a day that will live
in infamy,” committed its ulti
mate act of supreme treachery.
Now let’s go back to Japan—
with the only kind of message
these “people” understand. Let’s
go back with our warships—yes
planes and bombs as well—to im
print a lesson on the Japanese
mind, and on that of the other
Axis would-be conquerors of free
men, that they will not forget in
the lifetimes of their great grand
children—and ours.

Porter of Panama City, Fla., are
