» he ulwayg has. He rolls out in the morning, goes about his work trama I as he always did. He has no time I to spare for agitation or fighting the bitter elements. He must work and take what conies his waygood or bad, and it has been mostly bad for years. When Dr. U. Wirt made his conclusive eruption lately and tried to make you believe that this country was going Russian, flaying the President and the brain trust, he > surely did not have the farmer in mind—as the farmer does not beI long to the brain trust. All the ■ farmer has left is his bruin and that sure has been strained of late. He , cannot accuse the farmer us belonging to the Reds.

Thanks to A. L. Dulwinkle, he | sure gave Wirt the bull wink and i winked him down from a sixteen I cylinder to a model T runabout and that ought to quiet him for the J time being. And now back to farmers plight. I ! Every spring the farmer starts I anew, he sits up late at night looking over the circulars and catalogs and advertisements on fences, farm machinery, wall paper, plants and i seeds all gloriously pictured and , they all remis'd him of the good old . time wlifcu he was able to buy what jhe needed. He gets up in the mornJng determined to make a new start I and he does, but it only lasts until i noon, for when he returns to the house for dinner he picks .up the j papers and this is what he sees: | hogs, down 25 to »c; cattle, dull, 'no demand; grain market drops to ■ new low mark, and the next page tells him you better buy now for everything is going up. This gives him indigestion, headache, high blood pressure and all other ailments listed in the patent medicine ads and so the balance of the 1 day is utterly ruined, but do not ; take this too seriously, you know i we have been promised for seven

’years that prosperity is right ’ I around the corner. The trouble is ’the farmer ia in a corner and can 11 not get out and prosperity is at the t opposite corner and the sheriff is - just around the corner behind him ■ wearing a seilous face and a threepage document in his coat pocket • trying to help the farmer out of his > corner and this makes him forget ’ there is such a thing as prosperity. > Prosperity may lie around the ’ corner and so is Dillinger, but let's 1 see you catch either one.. Here is • a problem for you to figure on. It ’ is estimated that the total saving t In wealth is about fifty thousand ‘ million dollars in the U. 8. This would make an average of about 1 four hundred dollars per capita in savings. A healthy nigger slave brought one thousand dollars when sold on the block before the Civil 1 war and ex-Governor Ed Jackson's 1 saddle horse was worth twenty-iive hundred dollars when purchased ' from the famous klan chief, and if 1 tlie average white man is Worth ' four hundred dollars, what is the average farmer worth? 1 will try ' to illustrate as follows: It would take the value of six ■ white men and about seven cows with the milk pails thrown in to get a hoss Ilk? Jackson rode. What is a farmer worth? Last week the government was obliged to take over a large farm with all improvements and live stock just because the farmer could not get around the corner. The government sent out I a city chap to appraise the property. This man. not knowing a i horse from a cow or a sheep from a hog, tho government supplied . i him with a guide book with the pic- , tures of nearly all live stock and ‘also the value thereof, to this man ,' a horse was a horse and a cow was ■ a cow as illustrated in the guide hook, but to his predicament he i found one animal and did not know i what to call it as it was not listed in the book So he wrote back to • Washington for information on this i queer animal. He thought It might ae a goat but was uncertain about • it. This is wliat he wrote: 1 got i along well with the appraisement

E. Trubee Davison, former Assistant Secretary of War, secretary of the contest committee N. A.

According to the ruling only standard commercial planes would be eligible for the prize—more than sfio,ooo U S. fliers with special speed planes, such as Colonel Roscoe Turner. Jimmy Doolittle and Jimmy Wedel!, would be barred or obliged to build new nlanes conforming to specification required by rules. Amelia Cai hart. too.

What is it and what is Uie! value thereof.’ The following day he received the following telegram: Dear Sir. according to the description. it is a farmer and has no value whatever. I will add one cheerful sentence. The man worth while is the man witli a smile when everything goes i dead wrong. This should include every farmer and he should carry an extra supply in his pocket where he used to carry his money. Phil L. Schieferstein. ——o Icontact with KIDNAPERS IS ESTABLISHED ! (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) and when they were captured. Two suspects arrested at Phoenix, G. R. Graham. 35. and Jack Pattie, 4S( were released today. They were taken into custody at a tourist camp .on information they owned a dark green sedan j similar in appearance to one sev- ‘ eral motorists said they saw on the Tucson-Phoenix road with the, two men and a small girl several hours after the kidnaping. Questioned separately, both deI nied knowledge of the abduction. The telephone call was received as the "zero hour" approached in the two-day limit set in tlie original ransom note for the girl's | i family to deal the kidnapers. I The caller notified an unnamed I member of the family to await further instructions as to where the SIO,OOO ransom money should be deposited. A state of suppressed excitement prevailed at the sheriff's office. A crowd of 200, only a remnant of the hoarde of cow - ] punchers, Indians. Legionnaires, and other civilian possemen who had been ' dispersed 12 hours before to clear the way for negotiations. thronged the corridors of the building. A complete silence fell over tlie group, broken only by the tingle of-an occasional telephone call from some resident I seeking information. o 1 SECOND MAN IS HELD TODAY IN BREMER KIDNAP (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) found on Vidler. The actual kidnaping of the St. Paul banker had heen charged to i Alvin Karpis,. Fred Barker and I Arthur Barker, Oklahoma outlaws, I believed to be members of the j Dillinger gang. Their fingerprints | were found in a northern Wiscon sin resort in which Dillinger and six other men lived until last Sunday. McLaughlin is 68. At the time , of his arrest yesterday he was free on bond under Indictment in connection with tiie $250,000 loop mail robbery in Chicago in December. 1932. McLaughlin denied any implication In the St. Paul kidnaping. He charged that federal agents had abused and beat him. lie admitted an acquaintance with Vid ler. hut denied having given Vid ler the money which was found J on the gambler. Federal officials admitted they lielieved the new Dillinger gang and the Biemer kidnaping case were closely connected. Federal agents amassed huge j files of information in their in-1 vestigations of the gang's actlvi-|

J ties. Among their prisoners they | hold five women whom the gangsters deserted at one time or an- | other in their flights from federal ' men. ! Evelyn (fresciiette, Dillinger’s I sweetheart, is held in St. Paul as ; is Beth Green, widow of one of Dillhiger’s associates. Three associates of tlie gang are held in Madison, Wis. The girls were captured at the Little Bohemia lodge in northern Wisconsin last Sunday after two men were killed during a battle between federal agents and the gangsters. McLaughlin was accused of be- | ing tlie head of nation-wide "hot" I bond disposal ring. o ■ PLAN TO RETARD RECOVERY PLAN j (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) congress for administration mea- , sures. i Observers at tlie capital state ! that the administration realizes : government spending must be | halted.

A Bible and a Newspaper In Every Home —said Benjamin Franklin, whose death on April 17, 1790, we remember this week. IF YOU asked the founder of a great library system what reading matter you should place in your home, you might expect him to hand you a sizable list of books. But old Ben Franklin, father of the free library system of our country, being a man to put first things first, might have looked over the top of his glasses at you, and repeated “a Bible and a newspaper in every home.” Franklin himself was Printer and Publisher ... and an advertising writer. He recognized, as you do, that good advertising is NEWS. Back in 1780, when a ship came to port with a consignment of India shawls and some merchant announced this in the newspaper, you may imagine that that item meant more to the ladies of the day than the usual chronicle of somebody’s cow “lost, strayed or stolen.” An editor gathers up the news from all corners of the globe, just as a merchant gathers up his stock of goods. Then the story of both is carried in the new spaper. Both mean a great deal to every reader.

Silver legislation may play a ’ part in tlie third problem, that • relating to possiide revisions in i the monetary programs. • Silver advocates were sotnei what encourgaed today after a conference with the President at 1 which they said the chief execuI live declared hope that the United States could gradually increase ■ the ratio of silver backing of its ' currency to 30 per cent silver and 70 per cent gold. The present ratio is 12 per cent silver and 88 per cent gold. However the r President remained opposed to i compulsory silver legislation. He Mas represented as believing a central monetary authority might be worth considering at some time in the future. > o Steals Cross of Church . Pawtuckket, R.

Recently the Detroit Historical Society Museum here was broken into and old coins, old currencies and gold watches, once worn by some of Detroit's historically great, were stolen.
