According to Mr. Darrow, rural residents have a maj- ority of votes in only 137 con- gressional districts compared ito the urban voters with a major- ity in'300 districts. Adjustment to 'the political necessities of a minority group hasn't yet been made by farmers and their lead- ers. The prime requirement is unity. "Until farmers learn these political facts of life 'they'll be- come more and more wards of the government. They won't descend all 'the way to 'the help- less state of 'the American In- dian but ,have economic ecaopnporomaicchit Farmers pow- er out of all proportion to their numbers. Investment in farming in Canada was over 13 billion—over five times the total 'assets of the 'livestock pro- cessings.companies in Canada and over 20% of the total as- sets of all tabulated industries in Canada. Maybe farmers should grow in wisdom and forget about briefs to government and start using their economic strength. After all—food, the most im- portant product on the market, is in the possession of the farmer at point of origin.

This quotation has 'a very de- finite personal reference bat I would like to 1.0<e man imPer- Senally. Man has grown in phy- sical stature as is shown in 'the fact that populations with gobd nutrition are taller. I think we could justify the statement that man has grown in mental stature as well. What has been 'the growth social stature. In earlier 'times we had free men and slaves. Eventually governments replaeed individual dictators and freedom of'the in- dividual was dependent upon government for the direction their lives might take, Political power 'became the dominant force and 'to air outward ap- pearances' it so remains. I wonder how we have grown in wisdom? It seems to me the last many years a definite insidious charge has been tak- ing place. It seems 'that pol- itical power 'is being over-shad- owed, if indeed, not dominated by financial power.
