Evils of Restricted Production
No policy of restricting production
and artificially raising prices is
sound policy. Reduction of produc
tion inevitably affects the real wages
of everyone; therefore, it lowers the
standard of living. And, more than
anything else, it leads to the bredd
lines, to ration cards and to a form
of government that is not a de
mocracy but an autocracy. (Frank
Knox, Worcester, Mass., speech.)

Chicago, Ill.—Reflecting the na
tionwide swing away from the New
Deal Party, Governor Alf M. Lan-
don, Republican Presidential nom-
inee, is maintaining a two-to-one
lead over President Roosevelt in a
poll conducted by the midwestern
radio station, WIND.
Covering six states, Illinois, Indi
ana, Michigan, Ohio, Iowa and Wis-
consin, the poll requires ‘.hat all
votes must be written and sent in
through the personal interest ot
the voter.
With Governor Landon showing
better than 12,000 votes at the lat-
est count and Piesident Roosevelt
trailing with less than 6,000, the
minor candidates of Lemke, Brow-

WHILE IN PAWHUSKA FAIR WEEK, COME IN AND SEE THESE
NEW ARRIVALS
New York, N. Y. — America’s !
most tamous historian, James Trus- 1
low Adams, in his latest volume on
current history, discloses that from |
the nonpartisan viewpoint of the j
historian the New Deal administra- I
tion has broken more pledges to the I
people than any other administra-
tion.
"I cannot recall any other presi-
dent and party which has gone so
far in the solemnitj of their
pledges,” Mr. Adams writes in his
new book. “Nor do I recall any
other such repudiation of them.
“That repudiation has not been
the result of overwhelming circum-
stance, but has largely resulted
from the endeavor to make over
the whole pattern of our social and
economic life to meet the personal
approbation of a president.
“The question at once arises, how
can self-government continue if a
people cannot put trust in the most
solemn pledges of the party and '
candidates for whom the majority '
vote?
“If we cannot co so, then the
system of party government must
crumble and we have nothing to
take its place, except dictatorship
or revolutionary chaos.”
The book, “The Living Jefferson,”
is published by Scribners. Mr. Ad-
ams is the author, among others, of
"Founding of New Englana,” a
Pulitzer prize winner, and "The
Epic of America.”

By FRANK RIDGWAY
Gears of international trade
chinery have been thrown in re-
verse to the extent that the United
States is today the world's largest ■
wheat importer, with the single ex-
ception of Great Britain, including
North Ireland. In that regrettable
position this nation has imported
from foreign countries more than
40 million bushels of wheat within j
the past year.
For at least 70 years, this coun-
try had been a net exporter of
wheat. A dozen years ago, farm-
ers bragged about selling to foreign
countries more than 250 million
bushels of wheat in one year, ex-
ceeding the exports of any other
country in the world. Today, they
are forced to stand by and watch
foreign growers sell wheat to
America’s customers abroad. They
also are supplying a large part of
the market here at home.
Government Tinkering
This revolutionary change has
been brought about not only by
drouths, but also by government
tinkering with production and for-
eign trade policies. Had there been
no government meddling, our
growers would have had mure
wheat to sell during the next 12
months when prices are expected Io
be higher than they have been for
several years.
After three years experience un-
der a crop and livestock production
program dictated to them by offi-
cials of a centralized government,
many practical farmers feel that
they would have done a better job
acting individually. They must pay
their share of the New Deal dole
i.ioney sent out to individual farm- !
ers for reducing their production
which has contributed to the pres-
ent predicament.
Farmers had been told by politi-
cal planners that the reduced pro-
duction of farm products, brought
about by adverse weather condi-
tions and by the Agricultural Ad- I
justrnent Administration program, '
had been good for them. As they '
now stand looking backward, each
farmer is better able to appraise
for himself what the drouth and
the Agricultural Adjustment Ad-
ministration did for him and decide
as an individual whether it has
been good or bad.
Pay Higher Prices
Producers, working under vari-
ous handicaps, are now threshing
a wheat crop estimated to be ap-
proximately 638 million bushels,
more than 145 million bushels less
than the five-year average from
1929 to 1933. It will again be nec-
essary for the United States to
bring in large quantities of hard
wheat to blend with soft wheat dur-
ing the next year. Our millers will
be forced to pay a higher price
plus 42 cents a bushel duty be-
cause Canada’s wheat crop is
short.
When the wheat drills start this
fall, many United States growers
are expected to make thei-
cisions as to the number
they will plant and '
their neighbors to do lil
Lake View school opened for the;

Sunday morning. Sept. 6, at her home

this happy little girl. She will be
mourned and missed by all who knew
her.

Lincoln, Landon
Have Same Initials
Mrs. Wilma D. Iloyal, assist-
ant chairman of the Republican
National Committee, isn’t super-
stitious. but she points out that
Abe Lincoln and Alf Landon
have the same initials.
“Abe Lincoln,” says Mrs. Hoy-
al, “brought our country through
its greatest crisis in the 19th
century. If there is any signifi-
cance in this repetition, Alf Lan-
I don surely will be elected to do
' ’he same for us in the 20th cen-
tury.”
Washington, D. C.—American for-
eign trade balances are shrinking
rapidly as a direct result of the
New Deal Party’s reciprocal tariff
treaties, latest figures released by
the Department of Commerce show.
The United States is losing daily
with every country with which the
New Deal treaties have been put
into operation, the figures show.
At the same time, United States
imports jumped upward, from $1,-
644,055,000 in 1934, before the trea-
ties went into effect, to $2,047,287,-
000 in 1935 after the agreements |
were in operation.
Only Germany Barred.
Germany is the only country in
the entire world that does not reap I

(5n our piano we have two new
school room decorations. One is a lar-
ge asparagus fern in a pretty jarden-
iere. This was given to our teacher,
Mrs. Morgan, by Mrs. Louis Politzer
of Tulsa. The other is a large aquar-
ium with eight pretty gold fish swim-
ming among the pretty shells at the
bottom or along the green that floats
at the top. Dr. and Mrs. R. Sherwood
of Tulsa game us the use of the aqua-
rium. Dr. Sherwood Is our teacher’s
brother. We appreciate the fern and
the aquarium very much. Their beau-
ty adds much to our enjoyment of
school life.
We were very glad to have a 100
per cent attendance and enrollment
on Monday morning. The entire 18 pu-
pils of our district were present. One
little boy, Melvin Smith, who could
not attend last year because of a
crippled leg will not be able to at-
tend for some time because he was
thrown from a horse Saturday after-
noon and one arm bone dislocated and
another one broken.
