But the whole point is that no one,
least of all Mr. Hilles, who proposes
to commit the New York delegation to
Snell, has the slightest idea that the
Republican convention will nominate
the able New York representative. The
whole purpose of giving this big dele
gation to Snell is to hold It away
from Herbert Hoover, to hold it away
from Senator Borah—even to hold It
away from Colonel Knox—for the pur-
pose of permitting another smoke-filled

pure force of lethargy. Hilles also

Appeal to Farmers
This sounds more uneconomic than
even the present scheme, But it would
appeal infinitely more to the farmers,
and, curiously enough, it is almost
precisely what was offered as a farm
plank by Former Gov, Frank O. Low-
den of Illinois, and which was go flatly
rejected by Coolidge, Hoover and Mel-
lon. In short it amounts to the export
debenture, with Its equalization fee
provision. The only difference is that
the equalization fee part of the scheme
does not appeal much to the farmers,
If any particular crop were very large,
so that a heavy percentage of it had
to be sacrificed at a sharp loss on
export sales, then the equalization fee
might easily deprive the farmer of that
fair price he craves,
But the farmer is a natural gam-
bler. He has to be. He gambles on
every crop he plants—against nature,

at least reports from all over the coun-

tries competing In the world market.
He wants the chance of an occasional
killing with fat prices on a big crop
on his land, even though that big price
ean be occasioned only by crop fall
ures elsewher®,
But while this Is what he wants, he
is not going to give up the security he
now has for the first time In the his-
tory of mankind for the mere privilege
of gambling. And be will not vole that
way.
Want Longer Hours
“Why doesn't the government work
us sixty hours a week and give us
enough to live on?
That is the complaint of worker
after worker on the famous Passama-
quoddy tidal project, just outside East.
port, Maine, and close to beautiful
Campobello, where President Roose
velt loved to vacation years ago.
“1 work eight hours a day, five days
a week." one worker told the writer,
“For that the government gives me §11
a week. 1 have to pay $10 a week for
my board and room, so you see [ have
to be pretty careful with that other
dollar.”
“It's just crazy” sald a garage
worker, who was Intently listening.
“The government ought to work these
fellows ten hours a day, and six days
a week. Then they would make some
money. They could buy things. Isat
that what we are supposed to be need-
Ing?
“Don't talk to me ahout the men
needing the time off for recreation.
What do they do with thelr time off?
Two days—they have—and they lay
around the ends of the wharves and
buia cigarettes from us natives. You
see they can't afford to buy their own.”
“But modern thuoght is that a man
ought not to work as long us sixty
bours a week,” suggested the writer.
“Say, mister, we used to work sixty
pours a week all the time, and we got
slong just fine,” retorted the garage
worker,
“But the government wants to fake
care of as many men needing work as
it ean with the money it can afford
to spend,” persisted the writer. “Isn't
this the best way to do It?”
Anyway, More Money
“Well, maybe it would be better not
to work them sixty hours” conceded
the garage man, “but certainly they
ought to get $25 a week. Why, mister,
lots of these chaps have wives, |
know a lot of them who have three
children. What do you think a man
ean do for a wife and three children
on $11 a week?
“Cold weather la coming on, and

Eastport looks like a boom mining

isn't jingling. Men walk around the
streets In machinaws, High laced
boots, sweaters and heavy fur caps

But there are no gambling hells, Cheap
cheap. Nobody has the mony to sup
the answer, of course, to the lack of
gambling hells.
Not all the men are bitter at Uncle
Sam. Some of them are pitifully
grateful to get work, even at $11 a
week. But mighty few of them under
stand the economic ideas behind that
fight In congress last winter over the
“prevailing wage” amendment. They

We say this because, before the

so-called “pain” remedies were ad-
vised against by physicians as being
bad for the stomach; or, often, for
the heart. And the discovery of
Baver Aspirin largely changed
medical practice,
Countless thousands of people
who have taken Baver Aspirin year
in and out without ill effect, have
proved that the medical findings
about its safety were correct.
Remember this: Genuine Bayer
Aspirin is rated among the fastest
methods yet discovered for the relief
of headaches and all common pains
. « . and safe for the average person
to take regularly.
You can get real Baver Aspirin at
