THE PERQUIMANS WEEKLY, HERTFORD, N. C., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1937 PAGE THREE f t:Qi::::3To;i 1 WHAT TAKING PLACE BY UNITED STATES SENATOR Editor's Note Senator Rey nolds' column for this week is written at John Hopkins Hospi tal, where the Senator is being given final treatment for an acute ear condition affecting his hearing. - it" ine cause ot agriculture is now fHaeing ably presented to the Con gress. The arguments for and against the proposed farm bill prom ise to furnish new light on the condi tions confronting the American farm ers and ways' by which those condi tions may be corrected. In the first few days of debate, there is evidence that whatever measure may be final ly 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 session, farm witnesses from at least twenty- five states; presented their views Equally as important, these hearings brought to many' sections of the country a new realization that the community storekeepers and the com munity bankers can not prosper un less the farmers in the outlying areas share in o.ur economic advantages. Thus the-- effort now underway in . - congress is more man an attempt to write a farm bill it is an attempt to - bring stability to our farm popula- ,(r VAVIIf V V WW U1VU TT VM11I1VV V U . v ahead as a. country. " More than ever riAfnr. the rlp.hata in ConeresS and the letters from my t7 colleagues concerned with the farm v- problem,, -reflect the thought that the American people as a whole can en joy the economic benefits of our Dem F ocracy only in proportion to the ex- tent that our farmers prosper. Unfortunately, many of the condi tions that retard agriculture will not be corrected in the measure , now; un der consideration or any other passed at this session. Cut the foundation is being well-laid . for giving, our farmers newiiape and encouragement and at last th knowledge that the CAgVesywa the problem of agri cfyj toptrZ witsji . understanding.. Too aiany temporary . 'expedients in the past have made many of our farmers rightfully skeptical of legislative remedies for" their disproportionate share of , pur national wealth. It is already evident that a farm bill alone ( will mt help the farmer, unless theireH lbn with it better : control of marketing and distribution. It is here Mat the farmer has. been ; really hurt. It has -resulted :in the grower who purses a farm' commodity f from seed to sale, getting far less r for his commodity than the middle man who sells it. In, addition, Jfcjs i also realized that any permanent i help" for agriculture will include a plan whereby the, farmers vwill not ; , buy in a protected market and seu in . . an unprotected market This, of course, involves tariff changes, al ways a highly controversial kgiala , tive "y ".It might riifii;-'"' - farmers generally ire getting i.;bet S -ftv'ttr understanding of the; day iy day : ,1 attempts to iySbmiBM. : f feiThe American Farm Bureau Federal ' ' .f iaa and other iarm groups, through s state OTganiiations, )r are keepingf the' 'yj -;M individual f armors .dtheiniqplces men. advised of developments.

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 performance, and the way it handled. We have improved oh that car in the newly styled Standard Ford V-8. But some folks wanted stiH more size and style, with the same Ford advantages. For them; we designed a new De Luxe line. The De Luxe Ford V- 8 Sedans are longer with more room, larger luggage space, and finer appointments all around. De Luxe cars arc 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-cy Under 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 sizes and two price ranges, you'll find a 1938 Ford car to fit your needs exactly.
