America and the Ruhr Situation The advantage of America's policy in refusing to enter the league of nations is becoming more apparent with each new development in the European situation. Most Americans were very glad that the United States wa3 in nowise involved in the Greek debacle which resulted in Turkey gaining virtually everything she lost as a result of her participation in the World war on the side of Germany. France's move in the reparations problem, which has induced her to occupy the Ruhr valley, against the wishes of her old ally, Great Britain, and the far reaching" effects which may follow that development, justifies our wisdom in refraining from participating in European affairs'. The advice of Washington that this country

devote its energy to the development of this con

tinent and refuse to" become: involved in Euro

pean wars and difficulties is being vindicated again in our day and age. His policy, which has

shaped our entire attitude toward foreign nations, has not lost its potency in the lapse of time, but is as correct today as it was when first enuciated. It is' a patent fact that the American brand of diplomacy is something which the European mind cannot fathom. We believe in honesty of statement and honesty in the execution of promises. We abhor secret treaties and ambiguou3 statements. When an American statesmen say3 something, it is to be taken at its face value. This method of negotiation is something that the European nations do not understand. And on the other hand, the American fails to see why the European statesmen cannot lay, all the cards on the table and carry on negotiations with candor and an open mind. Sd long as this discrepancy exists, there can be little hope that America will permit itself to be dragged frito European entanglements. Our national honor is too high to permit us to become parties to some 6 the understandings entered into by European countries to attain their ends. We have an entirely different conception of right and wrong in international affairs. Consequently we can serve humanity best by holding aloof and remaining a nation in which all countries of the world can have absolute confidence. Our integrity, by virtue of our isolated position, will 'continue to receive the respect and admiration of those nations who appeal to us for a fair and impartial hearing.

FOR WHAT DO YOU STRIVE? By Georgs Matthew Adams,

I have been reading from the book" called "Letters of Franklin K. Lane," the man who was a member of President Wilson's Cabinet and truly one of the finest, bravest and cleanest characters that has ever been devoted to the service of public good. He never Btrove for money. He never sought public office except that he might honor It. His partisanship was the partisanship of humanity and of the largest good to the ones who deserved most whether rich or poor, of high or low estate. - " ' - . Right after the operations that were all too soon to snuff out the lights that shone in his moral house, he wrote this among other things to those who had shown especial intesest: "I had come to the conclusion that perhaps the best statement of my creed could be fitted into th& words, 'I accept!' which to me meant that if in the law of nature my individual spirit was to go back into the great Ocean of Spirits, my one duty was to conform. "Lead Kindly Light' was all the gospel I had.' And I quote a sentence from a fragment that was found in his ., room after he had gone away to join the "great Ocean of Spirits." "But lor my heart's content in that new land, I think I'd rather loaf with Lincoln along a river bank. I know. I could understand him....... We could just talk and open out our minds, and tell our doubts and swap the longing3 of our hearts that others never heard of. He wouldn't try to master me nor to make me feel how swell I was. At luncheon the other day a prominent editor told me of another great editor and famous writer who had told him there were only two things worth while in this world only two "health and money." As I read from the pages of this inspiring book, I thot of that editor's words. I wondered what statement he would make to the world should be placed in the position of this great man Lane. With his health seeping away and his money melting into nothingness, as far as he was concerned, what would he have to say? Can you guess who will be happiest tonight the one who has made, the most money, or the one whoTias helped others most?

Go-operativeMarketingExtension ' Producers Begin to Understand Principles of Acting Together for Protection of Farm Industry

By FREDERICK J. HASKIX WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. 23. Extension of co-operative associations for the marketing of practically all Mnd3 of farm products is in exact ratio to the understanding by farmers of the fundamental principle that only the grower i3 interested in selling the entire crop of a given community. The middleman Is never concerned in seeing that all the wheat, all the tobacco, all the cotton, all the apples, all the potatoes, all the oranges, all the raisins, or all of any crop that may be produced in a season is maiketed. He is only interested in buying what he can sell, and in selling what he has bought.. It is to his interest to have the supply always greater than the demand, for he can use that as an excuse to break the price to the producer. It is also to his advantage to see that the world does not absorb over-production, for that enables him to maintain prices to the consumer, and hence he is not interest-

LET'S GO! The old year often made us ill. It was, in fact, a tough old pill. It brought us many an ache and pain', A little sunshine, but too much rain. The new year brought us a ray of hope. We sort of looked for a change of dope. The innocent start was but a bluff. For the new year's pulling the same old stuff. i So all we get was a change of date. The told stuff seems to be going great. The "war" still threatens trouble dire,

Now comes earthquake, now a fire. Several shootings jar the breeze. Glooms are pulling the same old wheeze. We're going hellbent on a kite-shaped rack, And nobody knows If we're coming back.

It's always so, as I recollect.

There's nothing else that we can expect. So step on the gas and let 'er go For one more heat in the cosmic show. Our troubles thicken. Very tough. But we have learned to devour that stuff. And we'll steer clear cf the woes so dense By usin a little common sense.

ed in exhausting the demand for any commodity. But the grower "may sell all that he himself produces and still suffer because the entire crop of that commodity has not been marketed, for the price he receives wlil be lower by reason of th real or apparent surplus production. And if he does not sell all he produces, of course he loses that portion of his crop that i3 left on his hands. To protect his own interests, accordingly, he must see to it that the demand is exhausted if that is necessary to effect the sale of the entire crop. Likewise it is better in the long run for the indiviSual that all the growers of any given commodity receive the same price, if it Is a fair price, than that he should market his own crop for any one season at a slightly better price than hi3 neighbors get. Once the farmer has learned all this he is ripe for co-operation. He understands readily then why it is necessary to bring practically all of a large percentage of the growers Into the association. He sees why it is essential that the co-operative contracts or agreements must run for a long period of years five-at least. He understands why he must bind himself to market all his. crop through the association, and he sees the menace to the entire co-operative structure if a elngle member succumbs to the temptation to break his contract. Community Interests Allied with Farmers Closely allied with the interests of the farmer are those of the merchant, the banker, the lawwyer, the editor, the doctor, -the teacher in fact, of all who go to make up the community that is the center of any agricultural section. This was brought out clearly when the raisin growers of California were being organized. They held their first meeting in Fresno and the leading merchant of the town told them that if they would organize and do something for themselves he would put every penny he had in the world behind them. "You fellows are not making any money," he said. "You don't buy anything from me except overalls for yourselves and Mother Hubbards for your wives. You don't buy any furniture except the cheapest. You don't buy any kitchen utensils except tinware. The only way I can make any money is by buying up mortgages on your vinyards and foreclosing on you, but I don't want to make money that way.

I want to make money as a merchant and I can't do that unless you are pros pering. The banker told them he could not be successful unless the growers were

successiui ana the merchants werr

successful, and the. editor had a similar story.

"You don't make enough money out of your raisins to be subscribers to my paper," he said, "and the mer

chants won't advertise because they say you people don't take the paper and don't buy anything anyhow." The result of this realization of the community interest was that when the campaign was launched to sign up 75 per cent of the raisin acreage they all worked together. Teams were formed consisting of two growers and a merchant, two growers and a banker, two growers and a lawyer, two growers and a teacher, and so on, and the co-operative idea was sold to the individual growers like hot cakes. In six months 78 per cent of the entire raisin acreage of the state was signed up, and in six years the association increased the consumption of raisins in this country from 30,000 tons a year to 160,000. Moreover, where the California grower formerly got only 8 cents of the consumer's dollar he now gets 48 cents, and this has been accomplished because co-operative marketing means

merchandizing a product instead of

dumping it. ' Success in New Hampshire It is a far cry from California to New Hampshire, but the New England state has tackled the problem in a spirit akin to that of the west and in two years has made substantial progress in what is claimed to be the first state-wide experiment in co-operative marketing. Frank Knox, editor of the Manchester Union, has been actively identified with this movement, which, he says, "if successfully pursued, leads to economic restoration of agriculture as a great Industry and consequent great and permanent prosperity for the state as a whole." Shortly after the experiment was started in New Hampshire, Mr. Knox went to Europe and while there he made a close study of the cooperative marketing methods in Denmark. He wrote a series of articles on the subject which were published in his newspaper and have served to stimulate interest in the movement. It has been found in New Hampshire that the farmers are slow to appreciate the critical importance of the success of the experiment and have as yet supplied less than 50 per cent of the capital needed to carry it on. A small group of public spirited men have shouldered the burden and have found it necessary repeatedly to use their personal credit to tide the association over periods of embarrassment. Mr. Knox is now making a drive to enlist the active support of business men, bankers and manufacturers of his state in a manner somewhat similar to the way they have been brought into the co-operative movement in California. Recently he published an appeal In which he said: "A few men, a very few men,, have zealously and unselfishly backing this

THE YOUNG YEAR The new year's young and tender, and is indorsed by folk of every age and gender, who have observed its smoke; the old year hit the celling; the new one is revealing all kinds of charms, appealing to every human bloke. New brooms are always swearing with promptness and dispatch; new shoes are neat and shining yet sometimes I'm repining for those with shabby lining and heels that didn't match. New autos, gay and active, supplant the time worn cars; new wives art thought attractive by sundry movie stars; new vows and new divorces, new ponies on the courses, new drinks from bootleg sources, now hay In cheap cigars. Alas, but time is flying, and new things soon are old, and brass we are decrying in goods we thought were gold; new trinkets oft Beem gaudy, all beauties they embody, but soon we see they're shoddy, and then our feet grow cold. But let us not be gloomy, let no sad words be sprung ,by prophets hoar and rheumy who long ago were young; it is the dotard's failing to spend his days in wailing, all modern things assailing with bludgeon fiercely swung.

project. Its success means no more to them than it does to any group of similar size that might be gathered together. If the experiment is successful they will share In the general advantage which comes to the state as a whole, no more and no less. "This small group ought not to be asked to carry this vital work on alone. It ought to have the unqualified and enthusiastic co-operation of such bodies as the State Manufacturers' Association, the State Bankers' Association, the State Conference of Chambers of Commerce, the State Grange and the State Federation of Farm Bureaus. "This is primarily an appeal for all of the varied Interests of the state to support a movement that Secretary Hoover accurately defines as the greatest hope of future agricultural prosperity in the United States."
