Says World Production Deter
mines Wheat Price. t
"World production is the dominat
ing influence on the price of wheat
in the United States" is the opinion
of M. W. Pickell, agricultural statis
tician for the Farmers National
Grain Dealers' Association at Chica
go, who has just finished "a three j
months' special study of the factors j
influencing the price of wheat. In I
other words, the price of wheat in
this country is fixed by the world's
production of wheat rather than the
movement of wheat from other coun
tries into the United States. If this
is true we can't see how a protective
tariff on imported wheat is to benefit
the wheat grower to any great ex
tent.
From August 1, 1921 to July 31,
1922, the United States imported
363,456 bales of foreign cotton. Du
ring the same period we exported ap
proximately 6,000,000 bales to for
eign countries. It is therefore evi
dent that a cotton tariff cannot pos
sibly benefit the cotton grower; as
long as the United States sells fif
teen times as much cotton as she
buys.
In wheat and cotton, we have two
of the most important crops grown
in this country. Neither one of them
is benefitted by a protective tariff.
There are possibly a few crops of mi
nor importance which are benefitted
by a very high tariff, but what is
gained by the producers of these mi
nor crops is more than counteracted
by the tax that such a tariff puts on
the farmers as a whole. We fail to
see how a farmer, especially a South
ern farmer who grows cotton, can
favor a very high tariff.-Progress

The Washington Tradition.
In the time of George Washington
no man was more maligned. His poli- ?
.(|.es were ?ripp)cd up unmercifully j
by his foes. Today his lightest word ]
has become a sacred thing. Some- '.
body is always bringing up some !
S comment of his to prove the wisdom j
of a present policy. The utterances ,
of Washington and Lincoln are get- <
ting to be used, like passages in the 1
Bible, to prove anything anyone
wants to prove. 1
A letter to Elbridge Gerry, dted j
January 29, 1770, urges Washing- 3
ton's belief in preparedness in a con- ]
vincing manner: 1
"There is nothing so likely to pro- (
duce peace as to be well perpared '
to meet the enemy; and from this j
persuasion, and the effect you justly ]
observe the contrary on our part 1
might have been on the mind of the
court of France and also on that of i
Spain, I think it would be right for j
us to hold forth at least every ap- ,
pearance of preparation and vigor, ]
and really to do what ^our abilities 1
and the circumstances of our finance 1
my well justify." ]
The fact of the matter is that (
Washington and Lincoln and other ,
great men believed and believed in ]
the same fundamental principles of 1
peace, truth, justice, liberty and the 1
growth of ideas. They judged occa- .
sions as they came by the standards j :
of those principies and they did their ?:
best to apply the principles to the j
occasions with as great a measure of |.
common sense as humanity permit
ted.
That is all that any statesman ,
-or any private person in his own
life-can do. Who does it succeeds,
for himself and for the community j
he serves.-Greenville News.
