The postmaster is equipped with
blanks for listing applications for la-

u this might appt ar to be prin-
cipally in the interest of the worker,

reaching things started for the bene-
fit of the farmer by the Administra-
t on of Pres.cent Wilson, i"..

This is another item added to the i
mass of
shews that the Wlson Adm.n stration
has tried to give both labor and the
farmer a square deal. For the f**t
time in history, this Administration
has placed the needs of rural districts
sauarely befo-e Congress as of equal
importance with the interests of finan-
cial centers.
And why not? Financial centers
vveu'i': ■ ot amount to mm h without the
nine-hil ion-dollar crop of the Ameri-
can fanner. But the Interests of the
farmer have not always been so pr omi-
nently and favorably con-id red by 1
<'• :.gr-s* as they have during ’he past
three years. The record of Demoerat-
ic claims for farmer support Is a rec-
ord of accomplishment. It r-ol- like
this in the passage of laws and admin-
istrative acts:
What Has Been Dene for the Farmer.
CURRENCY REFORM: The Fed-
eral Reserve Act un lex tbs
farmer's paper is given special con-
sideration, including perm ssion to
National Banks to loan on the security
of farm lands.
RURAL CREDITS: An epoch-mak-
ing ■ gfi-la’ive measure whb h will re-
lieve the farmer of the Incubus of the
short-time loan at extortionate inter-
est. Th;s measure alone, when in
full force, will save the farmers of the
United States one hundred and f'ty
million dollars annually in interest
charges.
GOOD ROADS: Seventy-five mil-
lion dollars made available for the
t of roads froi the f
to tho market, under conditions which
t wa steful om f the im y.
AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION:
The [hi-sage of the Smith-Lever Act
brings to every American farm,
through the Joint co-operation of the
Federal Government and the States,
the help of these agencies in solving
the business problems of the farmer.
COTTON FUTURES ACT: Deals
a death blow to gambling in this great
staple.
UNITED STATES WAREHOUSE
ACT : Enables owners of stored prod-
ucts to obtain loans on warehouse
receipts more nearly approximating the
full value of the product.
GRAIN STANDARDS: A law en-
acted last August authorizes the Sec-
retary of Agriculture to establish offi-
cial grain standards. This law is
working. The farmer who has been
robbed through juggled grain grades
for years will appreciate its value.
CROP MOVING: The surplus funds
of the Treasury Department have been
placed directly In the banks of the
South and West to aid In moving crops
during the customary season of money-
shortage.
INTEREST ON GOVERNMENT DE-
POSITS: Banks holding government
deposits are now required to pay two
per cent Intereat This cuts off a big
graft which formerly cam- from the
free use of huge sums of the p-"p!es
money. M 're than one milli- a dollars
revenue annually la now derived from
this source alone.
IMPROVED MARKETING SYS-
TEM ' The farmer has for years felt
the power of the market combine,
with Its waste, Inefficiency and dts-
honesty. The office of Markets and
the Rural Organization Service, es-
tnbllkbed In the Department of Agri-
culture during this Administration, are
working or* scientific lines to promote
better marketing and co-operative busi-
ness organization among farmers.
These benefleient measures, with
many others, show ^7 the farmer

-ays. "has kept its rudder true am!
has wen and deserved the r- -: : and

The principles and objects of the j
foreign policy as stated by
Mr. i Mney have been :
First—To keep the country out
of the great European war.
8 T: insist x-
istence and vitality of interna-
tional law as determining its -va
statu- as a neutral, and defining
its rights and obligations as -nth.
Th -d—To deal with the Mexi-
can -ituation in a spirit of per-
fect fairness and frieniiin--- :o
the Mexican people, now suff- r-
ing from civil dissensions and
revolution to an extent which
leaves a large part of the country
in a state of anarchy.
Mr. Olney shows that all the- ob-
jects have been attained through the
wise, patient and courageous di; lo
macy of Woodrow Wilson; that the
ITesident ha- kept the country at
i-eace without dishonor; that under
hi- lea !• r-hip "the United States has
rendered an inestimable -ervice to
belligerents and neutrals and to all
:: .mkind" In “steadily bearing aloft
the banner of International law as
the standard under which all clviliz-d
t- pies must eventually gather."
Mr. Olney finds particular cause to
rnmenl President Wli- n's M-.-x: an
policy. He stands with the Pres: lent
in declaring that the Mexicans have
the right to work out their own d* -tmy
even through revolution.
Ci'»sing by asking what Is likely
to happen If the “Presidential *: r
