Courage . . of Richard Bowker I have known many brave men, bit: in some ways my old friend Richard Honker, who died on November 1 was one of (lie bravest. I was one oi those who called on him on his S.">tl j birthday, September 4th, ant' altliouirl i In- was already stricken with bis fa . lal illness he make a joke of his ag> and talked with enthusiasm- of what lie had "seen'' on a motor I rip t hu morning. For Uielnird liowker was blind. II* had been blind Mr neariy thirty yea iv After accomplishing what won'd have been a great life work for most men. In lost his sight, but he never lei that infliction interfere with his a? tivilies. Fortunately lie was able to employ people to rend to him and uuide him around. He made a yearly trip to Europe or South America, and de'ighted to describe the strangi things he hail seen through another's eyes. Afti*r his sight failed ho took over a failing business and built it up into ji gront succors, Men of real courage do .not let them selves be hand-capped by physical af flictions. Youth ... his war spirit. Many earuoat people are deploring the warlike spirit, of the youth of today. We don't get so much of thai in this country as in Europe; but to iiio nothing si ems more, natural. The sons of the nun who fought in the Great War are getting to the age when they loo, would like to put on uniforms, shoulder rifles and march, behind a band. We who were boys in America twenty years following the War Mot ween the States, which af fected our nations much more deeply that the World War did, had the sa:,?.? idea. In my high school days wo wore uniforms and drilled like soldiers mi dor an Army officer, and loved it. especially when we marched behind Sousa's band and the March Kim: p'avod his "High School Cadets" march, composed especially for us. Wo, and the rest of the thousand? of youngsters in similar organizations didn't want to kill anybody. Wo -were n't hunting war. But wo did got an exalted: feeling of patriotic fovtor, and would have boon glad to go to the front if an enemy had attacked our country. I think that is about as far u the "war spirit among youth" goes' ftny i where today. o. . C '<? " 3 <t<rt<*iii prohibition Tfsjjoaisibilltica a even after the twenty-first Aiueud j ment becomes effective for the Amend I nicnt prohibits t-ho transportation or | iuqiortntiou of liquor into dry States, j Territories and posessions. j Eleven of the wet states havo now liquor control laws, five will return to pre-prohihition laws unless new ones ore adopted and at loast three I have commissions preparing new con trol laws. Efforts to prevent the return ot' the old-tinu- saloon, to break up th.* alliance of the liquor interests with corrupt politics, to eliminate the boot lepger juid the speakeasy and to keep) the liquor industry from growing so strong as to be a social menace havo occupied the attention of liquoT con trol law commissions throughout th" country.

Information . . . wanted I find myself confused iu the effort to keep track of what the Government i at Washing! ou is doing an<J tryiug to do. It is my business to know as much as I can about what the world is doing. If I am confused at times, it seems to me that many other people must be also soniuwh^t at sea, .. I think the Administration could ' got farther and faster with its pro- j grains if it took the people into con fid enee, told them more frequently I and in more detail, all about its own work. I know there is a lot of talk from Washington over the radio; but everybody can't spend his time listen ing to the radio. I know there is a lot in the newspapers, hut the day-to day headline stuff needs coordinating Besides' a lot of papers can't afford j to. give spaoe to everything the Ad- 1 ministration wants to see in print. There is only ono effective way to I ''sell" anything, and that is by paid advertising. Mr. Roosevelt and his various administrators would be well advised if they spent a few hundred of the millions they are disbursing so freely, in advertisements whieh would give everybody a clear understanding ** it prfn* ??> . ?

More praise lias reached Washing ton i'or the work oi George A. i'c eh, administrator oi the Agncuiluial Ad- , jusluieut Act, tliau lor mat ol any . other (executive here, including Geu eral Johnson. There is a rooted be lief that he, with uie backing oi Sec retary W allace, is doing a goou job. - Mr. Peek thniks so liwiscil, and took the trouble the other day to &o into I the whole iarui reliel program and tell what has actually been done, ilo thinks that most ol tbe oppoaiUou where it does not arise irom seli seekijig motives on tliu part oi so called "leaders" is duo to the la<\ that the public docs not quite under stand the whole program. In the matter oi wheat,- ior in stance, more than 550,000 glowers ? have signed up ior reduction oi their wheat acreage ior 15)34 and lUJj, ioi which they will receive 2i> cents a jushel for the estimated amount ot wheat they coutribuio to the domestic I market, over aud above the price they actually receive lor tke wheal. ilr. i'eek made the point here ihui this is real money, derived irom the JO-eent processing tas levied on the millers, and that distribution ol' this money has already begun. There will be above $100,000,000 in all, oi which $70,000,000 -will go out within a few weeks, uearly$L);>, 000,000 into Kansas, almost $15,000,000 into North Dakota, and so on through the wheat-growing states. "The farmers who are beneficiaries of this plan are not resorting to vio lence to get justice'* saiil Air. Peek. The corn-hog program is to work in the same way. Before New Year's every corn grower and hog feeder will have had his clupioe to sign u|> for similar cash benefits. Those who come in will he able to get immedi ate cash loans on their stored corn, as well as bonus payments for reduc tion of production next year and the year after. The emergency purchase of bows and 6,200,000 pigs last summer at a price well above the market has already started money flowing in tin: corn-hog farmers' pockets, said .Mr. ^ Peek, and the bonus plan now about to bo offered will distribute tuoie than $350,000,000 before February , 1935, to the same class of fanners. As soon as the wheat -grower^* checks begin to get into circulation- ? some, of them have already been iuad.< out ? Mr. Peek anticipates then- will be a rush of corn-bog men to yet in on tho new deal and that there will spread a feeling of confidence that what Washington is doing is not mere ly talk. The cotton program has already shown important results in the Souih This year's crop has been reduced from an estimated 17,000,000 bales to about 13,0000,000. This- has kept the price of cotton from collapsing, and in the meantime the bonus money earned by cotton growers eooperating in the program has been distributed to the extent of $110,000,000 actually handed cut by Uncle Sam. Mort over, there will accrue to many cotton growers a bonus of about $48,000,000 on cotton optioned to the Oovernmtnt and those who arc holding over any of the 1933 crop can borrow on it np to 10 cents a pound^or $50 a bale, from (Continued on Page 2) u
