PROGRESSIVE LEGISLATION FOR LABOR
Believing that labor, whether upon the farm or in the workshop, or in
any of the forms of human activity, has the same right to protection under
the law as does capital, created by labor, I shall favor such progressive legis-
lation as may be necessary to place labor upon the same footing with capital
in the matter of organization and to assure it just recompense as the fruit
of jts efforts.
It becomes necessary for labor to organize because capital has organ-
ised eight hours for w6rk, eight hours for play and eight hours for recreation
as labor’s just demand. Labor is entitled to this. He is also entitled not
only to the bare necessities of life, but to a living wage, he is entitled to
enough to clothe and educate his children, own a home and have a little for a
rainy day. x

[ w SANGER, Texas, July 22.—Edgar P. Haney of Wichita County,
•••king to a large Monday audience representing almost every section of
Denton County, declared himself on the issues of the day, then reviewed his
’•“y«*rs in the Texas Legislature where he served as chairman of the Com-
mittee on Education. Mr. Haney especially emphasized the value of the
I ^fonpulsory School law, the bill raising the scholastic age, the bill giving
state aid and the present text book law, all of which he introduced. Haney
’kWl in answer to Mr. Chas. F. Spencer’s charge that one of his opponents
was advertising in a German newspaper that he had never advertised in the
Muenster P^P*1* and furthermore that he would not receive a single disloyal
Mr. Haney told of the burdens the people had heaped on them and de-
clared his allegiance to the common people.
Following is his address in full:
LEGISLATIVE BRANCH MUST NOT HAMPER PRESIDENT
Believing it to be essential to the preservation of our form of govern-
ment that the functions of each of its great departments—executive, legisla-
tive and judicial—be kept separate and independent of the others—and know-
ing that it is not only unwise but in contravention of our constitution for the
legislative branch of the government to encroach upon the duties and powers
of the executive, I will not, when elected, as your representative in the house
of the United States, vote for any measure designed or the effect of which will
i be to shorten the arm of the President or weaken his just influence or deprive
/ him of his constitutional powers and functions as the chief executive of this
government.

SUSTAIN TAX LAW
The Income tax law, the Inheritance tax law were passed in order that
the wealthy of this nation might bear their great proportion of the burden of
this war. These laws were founded upon justice. They probably need amend-
ing or perfecting, but I am unwilling to repeal them and thereby place addi-
tional burdens upon the people. '
' . THE LAND PROBLEM
The best form of preparedness which any nation may possess is main-
tenance of access to the land. Military preparation is but one phase of na-
tional defense. ' The foundations of a nation’s strength are in the homes of
the people. However effective and complete the national equipment for war,
I that soldier will be most efficient, whether he fights in the sky, the trench, on
, the ocean’s surface or in its depths, who feels that in defending his country
he defends a home of his own. ’.
Almost every country of importance in the world has taken definite
legislative steps to enable the people to acquire and maintain homes. Nearly
•U the leading nations have constructive land purchase and land settlement
Mlicies by which the government aids the masses in securing homes. These
Bations have come to understand that speculative land holding is one of the
ehief menaces of the home; that the home is the basis of prosperity, liberty,
‘order, yea, of the very existence of free rovrnment; that at all times it
wught to be possible for the honest and industrious citizens to obtain and
I develop a home from the current surplus proceeds of his own labor; that pri-
| rate profitmaking enterprise cannot and will not successfully and permanent-
ly accomplish such an end.
» The Federal constitution should be amended so as to give Coneress the
power to purchase, hold, improve, subdivide, and sell land and to make loans
for the purpose of promoting farm home ownership.
What is the situation? Although speak their own condemnation. Of
Isold to prospective owners by Federal and State governments, the results
millions of acres have been given and the 20.000.000 families in the United
[states, nearly 11,000,000 own no homes at all, while less than 6,000,000 own
homes free from incumbrance. In 1870 more than 90 per cent of the people
[y—ided in rural districts. Today more than 50 per cent are crowded in cit-
[ies. The percentage of tenants in the farming sections as well as in the cit-
ies is growing with an appalling rapidity. One of the results of present land
policies and conditions is that of the arable area of the United States hardly
[one-half is occupied, and hardly half of the half occupied is under actual cul-
tivation. Is it surprising that we are confronted with a food problem ? Even
' before the present war began our surplus amount of food was rapidly decreas-
ing. Unless something is done to make life inherently more attractive, this
^Bepublic, although it contains enormous reaches of remarkably productive
soil, will face a food shortage of increasingly serious proportions.

PROTECTION OF FARMERS
The fanning interest, constituting the backbone and reserve strength
of his country, should be fostered and developed by the application of the
beet thought and practical experience, show the necessity therefore, there
should be additional legislation making adequate provision for working cap-
Lital through loans on farms at rates of interest as usually obtained in cases
of other borrowers of like responsibility, and securing such recognition of
farmers' organizations as may be necessary to safeguard their interests and
protect their products against the profiteer and private monopoly in the in-
terest of both the producing farmer and the ultimate consumer.
HIGH COST OF LIVING
Notwithstanding the excess profit law and the various steps Congress
has taken to protect the people against the profiteers, the cost of living con-
I tmues higher and higher. Farm implements, machinery of every description,
everything used by man to help make his burden lighter and life worth more
I the living cost hsve doubled, thribbled and quadrupled in price since the war
in 1914 began. To illustrate how the farmers who purchased wagons during
1918 to 1917 were unduly burdened, it is necessary only to call attention to
the profits made by the wholesale manufacturer of wagons. In 1913 their
profits were 1181,000,000; in 1917, 1518,000,000.
NATIONAL SUFFRAGE
Believing that man and woman were created equal and that husband
and wife are partners, I maintain that the law should grant equal rights to
each. Therefore, I shall be a zealous champion of National Woman Suffrage.
NATIONAL PROHIBITION
I favor National Prohibition as a war measure. I am in favor of
r elosing every saloon in America now. I am in favor of closing every manu-
facturer of drinks that contain alcohol. The coal could be used by the muni-
tions plants. The wheat and barley could be made into bread for the starving
Belgian and French children. The thousands of men now engaged in the
breweries could turn to useful professions or enter the trenches to grapple
with the barbarious Hun.
This is one of the greatest patriotic mo- *
tion pictures ever thrown on the screen. It
strips bare the vile soul of Wilhelm Hohen-
zollem, and shows the plot by which he and
his Potsdam gang” hoped to get possession
not only of Europe, but of America. “TO
HELL WITH THE KAISER” shows the fi-
nal destination of this mad monarch, as well
as relating his cruel deeds on earth/This pic-
ture will be shown at the Princess Theater.
