FARMERS, TOO, LIKE TO EAT
There are likely in be some arguments on the New
Deal's Agricultural Adjustment Admiuistration before, the
present session of Congress adjourns. There will most
certainly be debate on the larni program during the pres-
idential campaign.
Much of the ammunition for both sides will come
from the nation's three largest farm organizations — the
Grunge, the American Farm Bureau Federation and the
Farmers' Union. Of the three, only the bureau remains
convinced that the AAA is clearing a true path through
the economic morass in which farmers found themselves
during the depression.
Despite their differences, all three groups agree on
the objective — re-establishment of parity prices for farm
products or an agreeable balance among farm, factory
and labor prices, such as prevailed before the World War.
Actuallv, farmers of the nation aren't particular how they
reach their goal, as long as they know, along the way,
that they are on the right road.
The farmer, like the industrial worker, wants his
labor to be worth something. He wants to feel reason-
ably assured, when he sets out to do his spring planting,
that the crops he produces will be worth something on the
fall market . This is the way the three dominant farm
organizations propose to bring about satisfactory farm
conditions.
The Farm Bureau—Retention of the AAA. with in-
creased benefit payments for crops and stricter enforce-
ment of crop control.
The Farmer ' Union— Guaranteed cost of production
without use of benefit payments. Assure the farmer rea-
sonable return for his efforts by insuring him against crop
damage by insects or drouth and against fluctuation of
mfirk&tB
The Grange—Provision for farmers' security through
long range program of reforms and balances. The
Grange's program strives to bring about permanent agri-
cultural stability \v adjusting taxes, making transporta-
tion and labor scales more flexible, improving American
markets through tariff adjustments and scientific re-
search, reducing marketing costs and in general contri-
buting to better farm conditions.
The average American farmer is a pretty level-head-
ed chap. He knows where he wants to go, and he doesn't
want to dawdle along the way. He doesn't fall for wild-
eyed messiahs who offer get-rich-quick schemes, and he
doesn't quickly forget which politicians are helping him
on his way and which are merely spouting.
There can be no doubt what farmers are after |—
they want parity prices. They're much more interested
in achieving sound domestic conditions than they are in
watching the European scene. Tliey don't want extrava-
gant promises or $30 Every Thursday. They have a goal
— a desire to bring about a condition which will permit
them to make a decent living.
Candidates had better keep that in mind. They'll
find it pretty tough sledding without the farm vote. And
if they intend to do any courting among the alfalfa and
barley, they had better come prepared with a program
that promises sound progress. Unless they do, the answer
will be a curt "no."
The Reds agree with Germany that the Spee incident
was a defeat for the British. By virtue of the same logic,
the Soviet army is winning sparkling victories against
the Finns.

JEWS SUFFER
NEW HARDSHIPS AS NAZIS
LIMIT THEIR FOOD RATIONS
BY LOt'IS I*. IXM HNh'R
BBRL1K. Jan. 13 -- (#>) —
Germany's Jews, already subject-
ed to extensive restrictions, have*
received another shock in call-
lug for ration cards tor the peri-
od of ,lun. IB to Feb. 13.
They round that coupons for
a total of 125 grams (almost
lour and one-half ounces> of meal
and all cottfions for podded vege-
tables such a* peas beans and
lentils - were Invalidated as far
us they were -concerned.
They further were denied cer-
tain general ration cards recently
Issued to ail other Germans to
enable them to obtain certain
extras when the .Nazi regime finds
itself able to grant something be-
yond the ordinary dally allot-
ment.
From time to time, for instance,
a small ciuantlty ot sweets may
he purchased upon presentation
of a special card from which a
coupon I clipped.
Jews must have the ietter J
stamped on their ration cards,
enabling a tradesman to declare
he has not in stock what the
.lews ask for or In other ways
to discriminate against theiu.
For certain food not yet ra-
tioned one must enter his name
on Ilia grocer's or butcher's list.
Poultry and flsli, for instance,
ure obtained after registration
but tradesmen with but few ex-
ceptions will not register Jews.
Jews are burred from appear-
ing in «tores or at markets he-
fore noon and after 2 p. in. most
of the supplies on the market
have been sold by noon or only
second-rate goods may he left.
Rvery German must have a,
clothe card to obtain wearing
apparel hurt Jews have been den-
led such cards on the grounds
that they have been so well-to-do
in the past they undoubtedly liove
reserves on which to draw.
The Jews' reply Is that the sev-
en-year-old Nazi regime marks
a period in which their standard
of living has dropped continu-
ously ii ud re-stocking of clothing
became almost impossible
