FRIDAY, JULY 11, 1919 A HIT AT THE FARMERS Repuliiicans in con.e;ross are boast ing of a Kreiit saving to the tax payers by cutting down the appropriations for various purposes. This may mean a saving in money but is not likely to be construed as a stop forward in this age of progress and general develop- menc. Time will tell. But in this play to the galleries, so to speak, the republicans are silent in s.'voii languages on the proposi tion one of their leaders, Represen tative McKacIden, of Pennsylvania, re cently inausjurated to tax the Feder al Land Bank bonds and the joint stock lantl bank bontls, now exempted. They are evidently not particularly anxious for the farmers to know that the taxation of such bonds means a higher rate of interest for them to pay, for it is the farmers who would jrny this tax. Democratic representative.^ direct attention to the fact that such a step would cost the farmers of America millions of dollars, and endanger, if not.destroy, the Farm Land bank sys tem. one 01 the greatest blesshigs an American congress has ever bestowed on the farmer. If the McFadden idea prevails and the exemption is removed it is believed that the Farm Land banks will either have to go out of business or raise the rate of inter est on loans to farmers. It will be remembered that when a democratic Congress established the Land Bank system, farmers were pay ing anywhere from eight to fifteen per cent on short term loans, which they were often called upon to re new. Since then they have been bor- i rowing money from the land banks at . 5.5 per cent, and for any term they j wished from five to forty years. Is j it any v. onder that the loan sharks, j who fattened off the farmers prior to the establishment of the Federal land bank:?, are clamor inc.- to have a special tax imposed upon these banks? ■ If they succeed their “loan shark” i ag>L“ncies will be reestablished and j fleecing the American farmer of mil- j I'Ous upon millions of dollars will ^ again become “the order of the day.” The republicans have the power to cnact the taxing measure mentioned. Will they take the chance? that the president had read the public mind aright at that time. And the sen timent haS| undergone no change. His critics made desperate efforts to make it appear that Mr. Wilson had not cor rectly interpreted the attitude of the j American public, but the people let it be known pretty soon that “an j overwhelming majority of them did j favor the League and would stand squarely behind him in his effort to bring lasting peace to a sorely troubl ed world. In an effort to ascertain the views of the people upon the League Cove nant, in their respective communities, a number of newspapers took “straw votes” w'hich resulted in finding as a fact that three out of four persons questioned had declared themselves unqualifiedly in favor of the Lea^e. The “feeler” sent out by the Liteary Digest was country-wide. To its in quiry responses promply came from 1,337 editors. 718 of these declared in positive terms, for America’s mem bership in the League; 181 voted against it, and the remainder, 478 in number, answered 'y<^s, conditionally’ which indicated that they favored the plan with some slight modifications. The Digest’s “straw vote” of the daily newspapers showed conclusive ly that a subotantial majority of them, at the time, were unqualifiedly for the League of Nations; that an over- v.’helming majority favored it with some amendments; that only a small minority opposed America’s entering the League, and that the President sized up the situation correctly. The people were standing with their leader then; they are with him today.
