EMERGENCY CROP LOANS READY I
Washington, D. C.~Emergency crop and seed loans from the $60,000,000
fllnd appropriated by Congress will be available within a week according to
la announcement today (March 22) by Governor William I. Myers of the Farm
Credit Administration.
Governor Myers said the emergency loans will be made only to farmers

~rchase such items, and not to any applicant who can obtain credit from
say other source, including production credit associations,

aflnistration or who are not propos-
lag to increase their 1935 production

of the program.
Governor Myers sald that the max-
imum emergency crop loan to one
farmer this year is $500 and the min-
llnum is $10 but no loan for the grow-

chase seed and fertilizer necessary for

Specifically for emergency purposes
and must be used to assist the max-
ilnum number of such needs, he said.
lle also pointed out that a consider-
able part of the funds must be used
to assist farmers whose operating
resources have been depleted tempo-
rarily as a result of the drought last
SUmmer. Consequently, these farmers

to begin the new crop year.
Loans will also he made for fallow-

This statement is confirmed by the

recent article entitled "Sweden, Where

"These Konsum shops are light, polite,
expeditious. They are modern in

COMPETITION
Throughout all Hie, all history, com-
petition has meant strife and conflict,
pain and misery. Its law is the law
of the strongest: He shall take who
has the power and he may keep who
can. It has meant freedom to use
every prerogative of power and privi-
lege, every accident of birth, natural
gifts or gain in knowledge to exploit
the masses of the people, the weak,
the unfortunate and the' ignorant. It
has exalted the material and debased
the spiritual in human life. It has
enthroned avarice and crowned cupid-
lty. It has set man against man, com-
munity against community and nation
against nation. It has separated eth-
ics from economics and pm~onal
rights from social duties. It. has no
place in religion, science, art, educa-
tion or any human activity that aims
at a higher and nobler life, It has no
friends to give it unqualified approval;
no virtues that commend it to the best
minds of our age. It lives only in the
greed of the russet placm, ~the selfish.

I JUNIOR COLUMN l
I Dlreeted by Mrs. G. H. Edwards,
State Junior Leader.
THE WASHINGTON CONTEST
Is now over. Dorothy Pulley of Big
Five local in Morton county will go
to Washington, and we can well guess
the happiness and excitement the an-
nouncement gave her. She worked
hard to get it. She had to. There
were eleven other Juniors working
might and main in seven other coun-
ties in the state, any one of whom
might also have earned the trip to
Washington, and Dorothy had to set
a fast and hard pace to keep in the
lead.
The fine work done by all of them
well justifies terming it a most suc-
cessful contest. These boys and girls
collected $399.18 for the Washington
Committee of Ten. They collected
dues from 251 old members and sign-
ed up 119 new ones. They gave
speeches and talks on the Far=ere
Union and its program and principles,
drew up resolutions, and circulated
petitions. These twelve Juniors
worked in eight different counties in
the state, giving valuable help to their
own communities, and there is no
doubt that they have contributed in-
valuable publicity and constructive
assistance to many a local in the
state.
We are proud of them and what
they have accomplished. They can't
all go to Washington~but our good
wishes and congratulations go to the
one who does. But they are better
members for the contest, and many
an individual has been very much
impressed with What they have said
and done. They are all of them go-
ing to Camp at Spiritwood next sum-
mer, however; we are anxious to meet
all of them, and above all we are
very certain that they will enjoy the
week they spend there.
Which, Mr. Ingrain, reminds me to
remind all of you that you ought to
be thinking about camp. You should
be checking up on yourselves to see
how you would qualify beside the re-
quirements listed in the North Dakota
Union Farmer. Knowing the Creed,
giving a four-minute speech, studying
the lessons on the study topic--these
are some of the things we are asking
you to do if you want to come. Mrs.
Butts, you may have noticed, is ask-
ing for contributions to a Camp song
book. We want you to try to out
Ingram, Mr. Ingrain, if you can.
ROOFS OVERHEAD
We are very sure that they are rain
tight this year, though if we thought
leaky roofs would make it rain, we'd
tempt the weather. There is a new
barrack built to help house our camP-
ers. the main hall has a foundation
under it, and trees have been planted,
and the place generally improved.
There is a new well, too, deep and
equipped to be used as a "refrigera'
tot."
THE WISCONSIN SCHOOL
The State Field Worker is now
back from the school held at Chip
pewa Falls. Wisconsin. About thirty
students, county and local leaders, at-
tended the four-day school, which was
very much like our own North Dakota
county schools. They were an inter-
esting intelligent group who liked t~o
discuss any subject that came up.
There was one evening session at
which the topic of peace brought out
some pithy comments by the major-
ity of the members of the class. If
it were not that there were frequent
references to cheese factories, con-
densories, Madison, assemblymen
(legislators) and "concrete" (pave-
ment) it might very well have been
one of our county schools.
ANOTHER SCHOOL
On the way back, I stopped in St,
Paul and visited the Farmers Union
offices and the co-operative school
being held at the Minnesota building.
Several North Dakotans were attend-
ing classes at this school who only
about three weeks ago attended the
Stutsman county school. They were
Mr. and Mrs. Jutlla from EmmonS
county. There were so many places
to go and so little time to spend that
I could not stay nearly so long at the
school as I wished, hut I did hear
part of a lecture on credit Unions and
part of a bookkeeping class.
WHERE THE FARMERS UNION
HERALD IS EDITED
In this same building and on this
same floor are the effigies of the busi-
ness activities. One of the first peo.
ple I stop to see is Miss Irma BleY,
who arranged the Junior page of the
Herald. She has known many of us
Juniors through the letters we have
written to the page ever since it start-
ed. They were talking about the
Washington Trip contes~ when I was
there and wondering who woudl be
the fortunate one to go from each of
the five states taking part. Then in
order that we might visit a bit longer,
Miss Bley and Miss Hoist, who is
Mr. Syftsatad's secretary, took mete
lunch and we talked ai~out juniors

THIS WEEK
Busy Dictators
Hitler, Peace _~gel
Lie Test for Hauptmann?
AH Heard the Moans
Europe's dictators borrow ideas from
each other. Mussolini, perhaps uncon-
sciously, copied Ri-
euzi, who ended vt-
olently. Hitler saw
how well Musso-
lini's idea worked
and adopted it.
Dolfuss tried it in
Vienna, ended bad-
ly.
Kemal Pasha has
made a success of
it thus far in Tur-
key, throwing sul-
tans overboard, Me.
hammed, the fez,
veils for women
also.
Arthur Brilbane Kemal says, "If
Hitler can defy the league and kick
over the Versailles treaty, so can I."
He will fortify the Dardanelles. in
spite of the treaty that created a neu-
tral zone adjoining the narrow water
passage tlmt separates Europe from
Asia. at Constantinople.
Hitler. turning with a rapidity that
would startle any worm, now declares
himself guardian angel of Europe, of-
fering to start a world peace guaran-
teed to last 20 years. That would d~-
pend on Japan and Russia.
There is a scientific test for lying.
Try as he may to control himself, a
man lying undergoes physical and psy-
chological changes that a certain scien-
tific apparatus reproduces In a "graph"
when the lying begins.
Mrs. Hauptmann, bar busband sen-
tenced to d~ath for kidnaping the Lind-
bergb baby, suggests that her husband
be subjected to the "lie test." addln~
"he would be freed instantly."
He could not be "freed instantly" be-
cause the law does not yet recognize
the "lie test" as conclusive, but the ex-
periment would be interesting. The
framing of questions, which should be
put in fewest possible words and as
startlingly as possible, would be im-
pertanC
New Jersey's Attorney General Wil-
entz. who brought about the conviction,
would be the man to frame the ques
tions.
Consider the principal of the Schaff
Junior High school at Parma. Ohio.
That principal, having decided to beat
five boys caught smoking tn the school
building, using his microphone, ordered
all classes and all noise stopped
throughout the school while the five
boys were "paddled" near the micro.
phone for the whole school to hear.
The story goes, "Startled students
next heard the 'Whack! Whack!' of
the paddles and the moans of the cul-
prits."
A girl baby two weeks old, sail-
lug, pretty, dressed In pink and white,
found abandoned in a New York hall-
way, was taken to the Foundling hos-
pital, a sort of "pound" for lost chil-
dren.
If a good-looking chow, Boston bull
or Irish wolfhound two weeks old had
been found, there would be a thousand
only too glad to take and care for it.
Our alleged conslns the chimpanzees
could hardly believe that.
There are miracles of various kinds,
even In healing leprosy. It can be
done, as the Bible shows, by super-
natural power. It can be done by
science. Jaelntho Moura, Portuguese
chemist, in Rio de Janeiro, smashed a
finger, and while suffering acute pals
accidentally dipped the finger In a
liquid vegetable extract that he was
preparing. This vegetable liquid, ob-
tained from a wild Brazilian plant,
mixed with chaimoogra oil, according
to Dr. Fernando Terra, director of the
Rio de Janelro hospital, has already
cured 17 lepers.
Some accidents are valuable. The
injured finger showed the way to an
'mportant core.
At Kovno, Lithuania, four Nazis are
sentenced to death on the gallows for
plotting to separate Memo! from Lith.
uania. Mr. Hitler, deeply grieved by
the fate of four Nazis, is said to have
protested to Sir John Simon, although
it is not clear what that Britisher
could do about It, The opinions of
two ladies whose heads were recently
chopped off, by order of Cbancellox
Hitler, would be interesting, but will
never be known. Once the head is
chopped expression of opinion ceases.
Mussolini says ,'Italy offers the
world a spectacle of calm," and
promptly raises his army to 660,000
men, promising to make it 2,000,000.
He says, "Let it be clear that our de
sire for peace is hacked by several
million bayonets." That is calm for
Mussolini.

Thymus Extract Hailed
as Growth Regulator
Two glands of the ductless type,
the fhymus lying high In the chest
near the base of the neck and the
pineal located In the head. have re
cently given medical science some
rather startling Information regard-
Ing their nature. Their existence
has been known for years, but aside
from a few readily apparent char-
acteristics nothing has been learned
about them. Their duties asslgm, d
by nature have remained a secret.
Now, however, Dr. L. G. Rownlree.
of the Philadelphia Institute for Med-
ical Research. has uncovered some
surprising facts, ile found that
when injections of thymus gland ex-
tract were administered to rats for
three generations the newly born
rodents exhibited surprising Increases

ment. Rats of the fifth generati,m

adolescence in from four to 18 days
as compared to the normal 40 to 90
days. and otherwise showed remark
ahle increases In physical and men-
tal strength. When extracts of the
pineal gland were administered
dwarfs were produced. From these
findings it is easily concluded t'ha~
the thymus regulates early growth
and the pineal gland acts as a check
on the former to keep it from over
doing its Job. Since the thymus ex
tract only increases the rate of
early growth and does not produce
giants there is considerable specula
tion as to what its effects would be
on humans.--Pathflnder Magazine.
