PRISON FARMS IN COUCHES PROPOSED Whitley Say* | Operation Would Mean Big Saving In Prison Costs Dnlly [>ini»at<-b Rami, In the Sir W niter Hotel. RY J f. BASKEKVILL. Raleigh. Sept. 13.—The cost to counties of maintaining thousands of short term prisoners in jail in complete idleness, as well as the lu crative jail fees and costs “racket," from which some sheriffs and jailers collect thousands of dollars a year, could be eliminated If the counties and cities, too— would establish workhouses or prison arms, in the opinion of L. G. Whitley, chief pri son inspector for the State Board of Charities and Public Welfare. "One of the biggest items of ex pense the counties have is the cost of maintaining tb-x county jails and the short-term prisoners in them,” Whitley said today. “F6r while all prisoners sentenced for more than 30 days are at once sent to the State Highway Comm|ssion camps. thus relieving thfe counties of h great deal of expense, there are still hundreds of prisoners serving jail sentences of 30 days or less. There are also hundreds of prisoners held • ■ jails awaiting trial. These jprisoners 'usually cost the counties an average of 50 cents a to— or rathep, that *s the amount the sheriffs collect f om the county for feeding them two meals a day.*' The actual cost of feeding the pri soners in county jails !□ in reality only a few cents a day in most ca«es, Whitley pointed out, whMe most of the sheriffs get the difference be tween the actual cost of feeding the prisoners and what they collect from the county. The’HHer in one of the larger counties recently told Whitley that the sheriff in that county had cfc&red #15,000 last year over the coat of feeding prisoners in the county jafl. This happens to be a county in which many Federal pri soners are held from time to time, with the result that the sheriff re ceived a large sum from the Federal authorities for housing and feeding flumHii of Federal j>nsonvis Winning From Kiwanis Head Os National Grange -Pictures Farmer Battling For Price Equalization Asserts He Pays as Much for Package Products as Formerly But Receives Much Less For Own Products A V IHj>y I ■ t a* f M *fier ten year* «f continued depression and losses, agriculiure came to „U»a breaking t-otut (This is the second tit a series of dispatches clarifying the farm problem.)

Back in Columbus, national head ; quarters, following a tour tnrough 22 sta*4is Saber nays; “It is not in the heart of anyone to criticize a person fighting to pre ! serve his existence**. "Those who understand the funda mental causes back of the piesent farm strike, dr farmers’ holiday* would cease muih of their criticism if they could see tshp real tfarm plctuie in the distressed area. " Person ally' I believe that' force and violence have no rightful place in ag ricultural controversies. But the right ; of collective bargaining and the right of peaceful assembly are Godgiven privileges. ... "T*he question arises, “WhaA sud denly stirred up the farmers? They are not hungry, are not out of work? “We answer that 4ihe, present de pression and its heavy unemployment have laid 4 crushing burden op .the farmer. Every man out of wqrjt eli minates a purchaser of /farm supplies. True, ts no read hunger,, but soup kitchens and charitable organiza tions are poor purchasers of first-class decent-priced farm products. Wheat to tfie'#iungry "In the second place. th» farmer has contributed surplus food to the unem ployed. He has seen the farm board give away 40,000,000 bushels of wheat to help feed th<* hungry. This has had a depressing effect on agricul tural prices. Andlback of it all, agri culture pays its share o an increased tax cost. Yet unemployment is pure ly a city problem. The farmer has more work than he can do. “The sudden turn of the farmer, the flare up of this phenomena, the strike, finds him at the crossroads, pvsckeiting in an effort to prevent the movement of his products to market. We have had milk strikes, previously, confined Ho definite localities. We have had occasional farmers' uprisings. But this is the first time that any thing in this shape has taken definite national form. "After ten years of continued de pression and losses, agriculture came to the breaking poipt. Now many farmers are taking achSon which seems to them most likely to lead to better prices. “Economic Injustice” “It is not unemployment, not the depression that is the primary cause of the farmers’ strike. It Is the great basic economic injustice which has been going on before our eyes for a generation—namely, the increasing proportion of the cos', of processing and production that is taken from the farmer. “For example, the prices of milk, to bacco. wheat and livestock have been at unheard of 4ow levels during the past year, yet-dn <the main those com panies processing foods, dairy pro ducts and tobacco have increased rather than decreased their earnings. “The January statements of many nationally known concerns using farm products show those companies earned more in 1931 than in 1930. and con siderably more than in 1929. Fays As. Much “The plain fact faces the farmer that when he buys at package of to bacco or breakfast food or some other nationally advertised ood, he pays the same old price. Yet wheat, oats, corn and tobacco- have (tobogganed in the last throe Fortunately the to- r- 7 ' jA || 1 ■ LOUIS G. TALLcVHB bacco price has bounded back toward normal. "The farmer is working longer hours and liarder because he cannot afford help. Yet he finds his interest and* his taxes skyrocketing measured in the things he l produces.” Just how match the aimer has to grow merely to pay taxes as compared to the past, Taber will tell in a dis patch tomorrow. ..ext: How Many Bushels to the Acre to Pay Taxes?
