Fewer Farms; Advocates Ise
The United State's main farm problem is that we have too many farmers. John Ise, professor of economics, told a coffee and forum meeting of 150 business school association members recently.
"I have been working on the farm problem for 50 years," Professor Ise said. "The problem as I see it, is to stop farms from producing too much. This problem was bad after World War I. Farmers suffered in the depression because foreign countries were producing their own food and not buying food from the U.S. The farm problem isn't as serious as it used to be for now we are doing something about it.
"Pure competition is what is needed in farming, not subsidies... If there are ten wrong ways and one right way. Congress will then try the ten wrong ways first and then get around to trying the right way . . . We are shifting from capitalists to bureaucrats who are ruining our economy. What we do fear is communism and fascism when what we should fear is bureaucracy."
Professor Ise recommended that the government should buy all the land being farmed by share-croppers and return it to timber land. The five million workers thus released could be used for 20 to clean up the country.

95-Year Old Woman Cooks
Her Own Birthday Meal
Washington, Kan. — (U.P.) The birthday dinner party for 95-year-old Mrs. M. J. Holloway was a successful failure.
Everyone wanted to wait on Mother Holloway, to make things easy for the dainty little woman. She has 48 living descendants down to great, great grandchildren.
But she wouldn't have it that way. While other women among the 10 family members at the party cooked the fried chicken—Mrs. Holloway's favorite food—she insisted on baking the rolls, cooking the vegetables, and making the pumpkin pie.
