j IN. WASHINGTON j WHAT y is TAKING I PLACE BY Editor's Xote ? Senator Rey nolds' column for this week is written at John Hopkins Hospital, where the Senator is being given final treatment for an acute ear condition affecting his hearing. The cause of agriculture is now being ably, presented to the Con gress. The arguments for and against the proposed farm bill promise to furnish new light on the conditions confronting the, American farmers and ways by which those conditions may be corrected. In the first few days of debate, there is evidence that whatever measure njay be finally enacted will be drafted on the basis of first-hand data. In the course of hearings held throughout the country, prior to the convening of the special ses sion, farm witnesses from at least) twenty-five states presented their views. Equally as important, these hearings brought to many sec tions of the country a new reali zation that the community store keepers and the community bank ers can not prosper unless the farmers in the . outlying areas sbare in our economic advantag es. Thus the effort now underway in Congress is more than an at temp to bring stability to our farm population, with which we cannot move ahead as a country. More than ever before, the de bate in Congress and the letters from my colleagues concerned with the farm problem, reflect the thought that the American peo ple as a whole can ?enjoy the eco nomic benefits of our Democracy only in proportion to the extent that our farmers prosper. Unfortunately, many of the conditions that retard agriculture will not be corrected in the meas ure now under consideration or any other passed at this session. But the foundation is being well laid for giving our farmers new hope and encouragement and at last the knowledge that the Con gress views the problem of agri culture with understanding. Too many temporary expedients in the past have made many of our far mers rightfully skeptical of legis lative remedies for their dispro portionate share of our national wealth. ? It is already evident that a farm bill alone will not help the farmer, unless there is along with it better control of marketing and distribution. It is here that the farmer has been really hurt. It has .resulted in the grower who nurses a faj'm commodity from seed to sale, getting far less for his commodity than the middle man who sells it. In addition, it is also realized that any perma nent help for agriculture will in clude a plan whereby the farmers will not buy in a protected mar ket and sell in an unprotected market. This, of course, involves tarifT changes, always a highly controversial legislative subject. It might also be pointed out that farmers generally are get ting a better understanding of the day by day attempts to give them assistance. The American Farm Bureau Federal-ion and other farm groups, through state organ izations, are keeping the individ ual farmers and their spokesmen advised of developments. As a re sult, sentimenr-from "back home" reaches the. Capitol almost daily and has an important part in guiding the views of members de sirous of protecting the best in terest of their constituents. If I may add a personal note, Beware Coughs t from common colds That Hang On No foatter how many medicines! you have tried for your cough, chest cold, or bronchial irritation, you can set relief now with Creomulsion. Serious trouble may be brewing and you cannot afford to take a chance with any remedy less potent than Creomulsion. which goes right to th* mm ?

Creomulsion to one wort? not two, and It has no hyphen In It; jjk for It plainly, aee that the name CO the bottle !? qwomulslon, and yon 11 ret the genuine product and the relief you want. (Adv.) (t is to say that it has been aj" source of much regret) to me that ' an ear condition which, required ' Immediate attention or the dan ger of serious trouble later, has ] prevented me from participating, in the preliminary consideration nf the farm bill. However, I shall be on the floor within a few days I and give such humble assistance < as 1 can. to the cause of agricul- < ture ? our most pressing national problem. < Farmers of Davie County grow-: ing a pedigreed cotton for the first time express themselves as being well-pleased with the va-,j riety, since it is ten days to two,, weeks earlier than most otf the! popular varieties grown in the county, has good yields, and a . staple length around X 1-8 inch.

Ford offers two new cars for 1938 ? ? the Standard Ford V-8 and, the De * Luxe Ford V-8. They are different in ap pearance ? but built to the same high standard of mechanical excellence ? on the same chassis. ' Because people liked our 1937 car so well, they bought more than of any other make. They liked its looks, its smooth performancfc, and the way it handled. We have improved on that car in ^he newly styled Standard Ford V-8. But some folks wanted still more size and style, with the same Ford advantages. For them, we designed a new De Luxe line. * The" De Luxe Ford V-8Sedans are longer j with more room, larger luggage space, and finer appointments all around-. De Luxe cars are equipped with the 85 horsepower engine only. The Standard is even lower priced than the De Luxe. It has graceful new lines and well-tailored interiors ? with a choice of engine sizes ? 85 or 60 horsepower. Before Ford made V- type 8-cylinder en gines available to every one, they were used only in expensive cars. Since then, four million Ford owners have learned the genuine enjoyment of driving an eight cylinder car with all-around economy. The thrifty "60" engine, especially, makes possible in Standard models a very low first cost and equally low operating cost With two distinct designs, two engine sires and two price ranges, youH find a 1938 Ford car to fit your needs exactly.
