Henry Ford’s idea of a garden
would be a workable solution for
this and every other; depression If
that garden was 20" broad acres ।
instead of a 20 tiny feet in a back
yard. . ———
If, as Hoover says, "homes are
the backbone of our nation," they
should be a little larger for the
poor and possibly a little smaller
for the rich.
Tracy in a recent issue of The
Praia ypry nqtlv enumerated how
little were the‘needs of the aver-
age man, all of which in my opin-
ion could be had from a 20-acre
home. •
If this government 30 years ago
had set its face to encourage little
homesteads instead of big busi-
ness. there would have been a
giant strength left in our purchas-
ing power. Yet, a few people own
the land. Every man in America
should own some few acres of
land. There is so much grazing
land now being used, sometimes
a 100 acres of it for one old bull,
which if cut up Into 20-acre home-

many happy lives.
Back to the soil, even if there
must be a rediviston of it. If all
these jobless veterans were given
a chance to dig a living from the
soil instead of trying to dig it out
of the White House, how much
better of, this country would be at
present.—E. W. Hughes.

A Good Platform, But-.. ..
1 ► •
rIMID souls in congress have advanced an-
1 other excuse for delaying modification of
the Volstead act.
The 18th amendment, they argue, pro-
hibits manufacture, sale and transportation of
I intoxicating beverages. Thus, until this' amend-
1 ment is repealed, they say, legalization of 2.75
-per cent beer, 3.8-per cent beer, or 4 par.cant
beer might be in violation of theconstitution.
At what point, they ask, does beer become
intoxicating? They evidently are insisting* on
a categorical answer before,-voting their sup-
port of the Democratic platform,. They have
heard the testimony of qualified medical ex-
perts concerning the intoxicating qualities at
T'eCf-of various alcoholic content, but they de-
mand more words from more experts.
.Their high regard for the constitution
might be commendable were it not obvious that
they are only angling for time.
Must they personally test the, intoxicating
or non-intoxicating qualities of 2.75, 3.2 and
4 per cent beer before they are willing’to'
vote? /
The real resistance' fs coming from Demo-
crats. Is this an -indication of the manner in
which they will carry out the other promises
of their well-written platform?

This Cannot Be Delayed
THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES has
I adopted a compromise relief bill not par-
ticularly satisfactory to anyone, violently op-
posed by many. It will be killed, either by
the Senate or by the president. The work of
getting tangible, practical relief to the people
who need it must start again at the beginning.
This time, politics- should be left out of the
discussion. Success In a political campaign is
important-t’ergrpat many-people, but it is far
more' important that citizens be saved from
suffering and that the country be saved from
the wrath of men made desperate by want.
It is important, first, that adequate funds
be provided to aseure care for all who may be
in need. Some weeks ago the Senate passed
an emergency hunger relief bill, separating this
fund from the controversial provisions of the
present measure which are intended to lessen
unemployment. Speaker Garner prevented
passage of this emergency bill, forcing it to
travel the slow, troublesome path of the other
relief provisions.
Without delay both houses should make
money avaflabte to theustates for this purpose.
They should be very sure that the amount is

leave boats and canoes and'how
to manage them properly.
10. Don't duck or “tease" your
friends who are not as good
swimmers as yourself. This may
create a panicky mind which in an
emergency may result in death.
11. Teach your friends who are
poor awimmers to go bathing in
pairs (preferably with someone
else who is a good swimmer), to
stay in shallow wifter, to beware
of hidden shelving, and to beware
of heavy breakers and undertows.
12. Never dive in unknown,
shallow or rocky waters. Even in
clear waters remember that "a
deep dive is a dangerous dive.”
Act, so as to permit light wines
and beer as is urged in the Dem-
ocratic platform, and I am for

For Position No. 1 we recommend Law-
rence Westbrook. Of Waco, Ida Darden of Fort
Worth or Chesley W: Jurney of Waco.
Our preference'for this position is-Lawrence-
Westbrook with Mrs. Darden a close second.
Mrs. Darden was the original ’"fepealist” in,
the congressional rac,cher platform being con-
. fined to the single-question of repeal. In ad-
dition to advocating ‘repeal, Westbrook has
taken a progressive stand on other important
questions. —
Our third choice is Jurney, former secre-
tary fon Senator Charles’ Culberson and more
recently secretary for Senator Royal S. Cope-
land of New York. Jurney has spent' many
yers in Washington and is thoroly informed
on governmental questions. .
For Position No. 2'our firt choice is Joe
W. Bailey of Dallas, sonof-the-tamous Texas
senator.Balley’s recent pronouncement of his
——vtewsonpubH questions was, we believe, the ,
most able, statement that has been made by
any candidate fot office in Texas during this
campaign. . . ~/
L. J. Sulak, editor, of La Grange, is our
second choice for Position No. 2. He has
sound views and is one of the strongest advo-
cates of repeal in the entire list of candidates.

1 prints a Socialist monthly called the “Amer-
ican Freeman,” successor to the old Appeal to
Reason. For years ’he has sailed into the
“system,” flayed capitalism, called Hoover "a
racketeer” and other names and tried to cateh
the popular ear. His circulation - didn't boom,
So last month he printed an issue, with, a
provocative article entitled:, “Why ‘Don’t’ the
Workers Raise Heil;" Thts chided the unem-
ployedfep-eewardice, recalled that the pioneers
. of 50 years ago took down their muskets
when they wanted food, reminded the readers
that • neither beasts norbirds when hungry

piece, but it worked.

top. Nor la It enough for the president to say
in opposition that the proposal would lead the
government into pawnbroking on a gigantic
scale.
Most of ua will agree with the purpoae an-n
aounced by Garner. On the other hind, most
of ua want to be shown that the Garner plank
actually will bring benefit to men at the bot-
tom of the 'economic scale, that it will do
something to increase the purchasing power of
the country rather than limply increase fur-
ther or maintain the producing power.
A study of'the problem should have been
started months ago. The lateness of the day
1* added reason why it should be undertaken
at once. Committees of the Senate and House,
or a joint non-partisan committee of both
houses, should review the whole problem at
once, with expert assistance. They should
consider at the same time the interesting
proposal of the railroad brotherhood*, spon-
sored by Senator Costigan and Representative
La Guardia, for putting government credit be-
hind needy consumers.
Such a study should not take long. Con-
gress should waltin Washington until it is
completed, and should .then, at last, come to
grips with the problem—the problem of cre-
gting work for those who have none and
restoring the general purchasing power, as the
first essential toward making industry func-
tion normally. , '
But in the matter of direct relief to prevent
suffering, there is no excuse for, any delay.
Suh a bill should be passed, separately, at
once. To hold It hack for political advantage
is little short of criminal.

HVERY tax-burde ned citizen—And that ex-
I4 empts no man or woman—felt an instant
of encouragement at President Hoover's pro-
posal for drastic armament reductions. Whether
tills specific plan comes to anything or not,
at least it opens the way for future efforts.
- A । hi.< 111 - • 111 < t» -1 > in iilie re,dweed or eivi 14-
ration is doomed. And what nation is more
advantageously situated to make reductions
than ours? Who are the people whb should
lead' the way to peace? We are.
The informed individual who is brave
enough to speak his honest convictions will
admit that the United States is not in any real
danger of attack from foreign powers. We
know that we shall never be in such danger
if we are fair in our dealings with the world.
rHIS VERY year while many of our ex-sol-
l diers, are starving tto death our congress
has appropriated large sums for summer mili-
tary camps where well-fed boys will go H)ru
their silly drillsand for the ROTC which_t
a sort of sissyfied, flap perish •adjunct to our
national army, and .which few taxpayers want. ,
America will have; war on her hands but
not with an alien enemy. It will be with the
Jingoists at home. . i
— And we are off to a magnificent start.
While the rest of us have taken from a 10 to
100 per cent cut in salaries, the military gep-
tiemen have gracefully yielded to a one per
cent reduction. That’s lowering armament
cost* for you* •
