Liberty I* the Battle-Cry of Brotherhood
Farmers* Watchdogs on the Job
It is a peculiar fact that in considering the relation of the
farmer’s product to the prices he must pay for commodities
notice is rarely taken of the fact that the average farmer has
resting on his shoulders the burden of a mortgage. It is all
very well to theorize that farmers arc prosperous when prices
of the products he must buy are brought within range of the
prices paid for farm products. These are fluctating elements,
and may be brought to reasonable equalization.
The tangle comes however because we consider the farmer’s
problem in terms of commodities, those sold and those bought,
when the vital element, the mortgage and the interest fall into
entirely a different cljiss.
The mortgage and the interest spell actual cash that must
be wrung from the profits of the farm and at specific periods,
and while the money market may fluctuate and be of importance
to temporary borrowers, the sum total of mortgages remains
the same, and the fixed interest remains the same.
If the farmer ever is to get rid of his old man of the sea,
then some consideration must be given to this fact. In 1910
the farmer had to pay $9.20 from every SIOO lie received to
take care of his mortage interest alone. In 1920 he had to pay
$11.50 to meet these demands. In 1922 he had to give up
$14.10 out of every hundred received. It can he seen that a
lowering of the price the farmer must pay for commodities
does not by any means solve his problem.
Let’s End Loafing of Idle Dollars
When one of the young Vanderbilts can stroll up to the
roulette table in Havana, as reported by a prominent Austrian
business man recently, take out a bundle of SI,OOO bills, place
one after another on the same number, lose ten times in succes
sion and then calmly turn to the fascinating fox trot, while time
is kept by the popping of champagne corks at the tables around
the dance floor, it is time for some of our taxmakers to put on
their thinking caps. • •••-•-. - i -
Ten thousand dollars to a Vanderbilt is a mere bagatelle of
course, hut when this kind of money waste is set down side by
side with the enormous demands made upon middle class pro
ducers to contribute to the country’s charities until giving be
comes a burden, then it assumes the aspect of a near saturnalia.
Business men, particularly those struggling to get a foot
hold, are-: the sufferers. Examples of this kind of spendthrift
nonsense have brought about the onorous income tax that has
taken out of the world of trade and thrown into non-taxable
securities millions of dollars, millions that could well be used
for the expansion and development of American industries.
The nation cries aloud for revision of our tax system, for the
modification of the burdensome surtax, but our lawmakers find
their excuse in the popular approval that gathers to them as a
result of any move that seems to show them willing to “soak’'
the rich. » There are rich men and rich men, however. • Some are
of the young Vanderbilt variety, hut there are others who have
made thefo millions by financial'and commercial activity of a
worthy character, men who in the making of their fortunes
have built up the prosperity of the country,

Buick Authorized Service
A Valuable “Part” of Every Buick
Equally important with the universally admired per
formance ability of Buick cars is Buick Authorized
Service. ? .
The insurance that the nation-wide Buick Authorized
Service system provides for every Buick owner
increases the confidence that comes through testing
Buick dependability in every kind of motoring.
Buick Authorized Service of the same uniformly high
standard, no matter where it is found, has resulted in
conviction on the part of automobile owners that
Buick Authorized Service is in itself a valued part of
the Buicks they purchase.
