TEST
YEAR
The year 1940 will be a tost
year for agricMltural maiketinjr
cooperation, accorciiiifr to a .sur
vey of farmer opinion jrathored;
by the Dairymen’s League News
of New York.
Prices ,nnd markets will be
more stable the consensus held,
if there is continued and closer
producer cooperation: if farm-
ers keep continually on the alert
to resist attacks against coop
erative marketing.
If that is true, it’s up to the
farmer noiv. And certainly, ir.
the light of the vast progress
achieved by marketing coopera
tion in the past few decades, he
will support the movement
whole-heartedly. No farmer ever
had a better ally than a good
producer marketing cooperative.
And, so far as anyone can see
now, he never will.

LIBERTY AND
LICENSE
Your greatest inheritance as
an American is fpeedom—free
dom from tyranny, freedom to
live your own life.
W'e in America must stand
continually to protect this birth
right. If we relax our watchful
ness, liberty may be abused and
then put to destructive pur
poses.
In every community, we have
a homely analogy to the de
structive power of dictators, of
liberty gone to license. Fire,
with its tremendous usefulness
to man, is a good element while
kept in its role of servant. But
when misused and permitted to
break out of bound.s, it becomes
a raging demon of destruction, a
tyrannical master—a dictator!
America is not at war but it
has its heartrending -casualty
lists. Our citizens need fortitude
to face the facts of fire losses.
Each year 10,000 persons lose
their lives in fires, and 10,000
more are seriously injured. The
direct property loss amounts to
hundreds of millions of dollars
annually.
Dictators maintain their pow-

Then the stampede will begin
to get noses back in the public

get them nowhere...

When an unjustified strike is
called, the working man is the
principal loser. Every facility
has been provided by govern
mental and private agencies for
arbitrating legitimate industrial
disputes. But that doesn't seem
to please the labor racketeers,
