Coming to Anaheim, Wed., March 16 with the Al G. Barnes CAPT. HOLDERMAN GETS CONGRESSIONAL MEDAL Santa Ana Man Who Belonged to the "Lost Battalion" is Honored Congress Tuesday adopted the order awarding Captain N. M. Holderman of Santa Ana the Congressional Medal of Honor for distinguished service in France. Captain Holderman was one of the handful of men who were cut off from the army and besieged by the enemy for five days until rescuers came to the aid of the few survivors. This small company is known in history as "The Lost Battalion." In presenting the citation of Captain Holderman for the medal the War Department says: 1. It is recommended that the Congressional Medal of Honor be awarded Captain Nelson M. Holderman, Company K, 307th Infantry for conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity above and beyond the call of duty in action with the enemy north-east of Binarville in the Forest d' Argonne, France, from the 2nd to the 7th of October, 1918, and that the Distinguished Service Cross awarded him for that service be not rescinded, unless necessary, by law governing the awarding of Decorations. 2. While in command of Company K, 307th Infantry which company held the right flank of the force consisting of six companies of the 408th Infantry, two platoons of the 306th Machine Gun Battalion Company K, 307th Infantry, and which force was cut off and surrounded by the enemy for five days and nights in the Forest d' Argonne, France from October 2nd to October 7th, 1918. Captain Nelson M. Holderman though wounded early in the siege and suffering great pain continued throughout the entire period leading and encouraging the offenders and men under his command. He was wounded on the 4th of October, but remained in action during all attacks made by the enemy upon the position, personally leading his men, himself remaining exposed to fire of every character. He was again wounded on the 5th of October, but continued personally organizing and directing the defense of the right flank against the enemy attacks. During the entire period he personally supervised the care of the wounded exposing himself to shell and machine gun fire that he might help and encourage his men to hold the position. On the 6th of October, though in a wounded condition he rushed through shell and machine gun fire and helped two of his wounded men into funk holes before himself seeking cover. This officer though wounded, continued to direct the defense of the right flank and on the 7th of October was again wounded but continued in action. On the afternoon of October 7th this officer and one man, with pistols and hand grenades met and dispersed a small body of the enemy, killing and wounding most of the party, when they attempted to close in on the right flank while making a frontal attack. Again on the evening of the 7th of October and during the last attack made by the enemy upon the position, a liquid fire attack was directed upon the flank; though in a wounded and serious condition Captain Holderman remained on his feet, keeping the firing line organized and preventing the envelopment of the right flank. He refused to let his wounds interfere with his duty until after relief was effected. The successful defense was largely due to his personally lead his m position after assistance before permitting him tended. The courageous inspiring bravery of the courageous men to assist in spite of five ing hunger and exposure. PIG CLUBS ATTENTION The Farm Bureau Agents are interesting not only girls of the county, but big farmers and businessmen. When a Pig Club was at High School boys, the good news got to Aaron Bucheim and led of the leading farmer nation. They each volunteered a sack of barley free of the contestants tha pig club. Another good man is of the county is Mr. president of the Cypress who has set aside one for the use of the Cypress Club to help them finance the purchase. This money is loaned interest on their person. Mr. Vance, Cashier First National Bank worth of the Garden Oriental Bank have offered winner of the Club co-respective Farm Centres. That's the kind of need. These are considerable encouragement upbuilding of the ju tomorrow. Fordson TRADE MARK TRACTOR MORE THAN ONE-THIRD OF THE TRACTORS IN USE IN THE UNITED STATES ARE FORDSONS, YET THE FORDSON HAS ONLY BEEN ON THE MARKET TWO YEARS. JUST LIKE THE FORD TOURING CAR, THE FORDSON IS AN ALL-YEAR UTILITY. IT IS A COMPACT TRACTOR; IT IS EASILY OPERATED, IT HAS MORE POWER PER POUND WEIGHT THAN ANY OTHER TRACTOR MANUFACTURED, IT IS THE LOWEST PRICED TRACTOR AND IT IS THE MOST ECONOMICAL TO OPERATE. THERE ARE MORE THAN SEVENTHOUSAND FORDSON DEALERS IN THE UNITED STATES. THERE IS ONE IN EVERY COMMUNITY WHO NOT ONLY SELLS FORDSONS, BUT WHO ALSO CARRIES A SUPPLY OF FORDSON PARTS FOR REPAIRS AND REPLACEMENTS WITH SKILLED MECHANICS TO GIVE DEPENDABLE SERVICE, AND TO HELP THE FARMER GET THE BEST OUT OF THE FORDSON TRACTOR. THE DEMAND FOR FORDSON TRACTORS IS GREATER THAN THE SUPPLY. THERE IS ONLY A LIMITED NUMBER FOR EACH TERRITORY. GET YOUR ORDER IN NOW. ORDERS ARE FILLED IN THE ORDER RECEIVED.

Other governments, notably those of Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan are helping their farmers, protecting and supporting them but our farmers must go it alone in competition with all the world. They must sell their grain in markets dominated by the most powerful government commissions. Practically all of Europe today is buying its grain through government commission, that are working together and that have all the resources all the ingenuity, and all the brain power possible to hammer down the prices and buy cheaply. That their prices are at times below the American prices in no way lessens the importance of this point. These European nations have subsidized bread and they have subsidized home production of grain. England is pointed to by free-trade exponents so the great example of the benefits of free trade, but England is no more a free trade country than countries with high tariffs. England protects its industries with Government funds and taxes and is continuing its war-time price for home-grown grains with provision THE PURPOSE OF THE ANTI-STRIKE BILL There are many men of radical thought who concede no allegiance to the laws under which they live. They proceed to break them whenever the spirit moves, until they are forcibly restrained by officers of the law. There are others, who while not as radically inclined as the former class declare that they owe no duty toward society in general, and claim perfect freedom to do as they please so long as they do not actually break the peace. In line with other attacks on the railroad anti-strike bill and the Esch-Cummins transportation act, Mr. Gompers declares that ‘no law to compel workmen to work against their will or under conditions detrimental to their welfare or health can be enforced. That sort of an argument, conveying as it does a misinterpretation of the anti-strike bill, carries an appeal to those who have a wrong conception of the meaning of freedom. There are ports of industry that have become known as public utilities because of the direct dependence of the public upon them for continued life and comfort. Telephone and telegraph companies, gas and electric light companies, and steam and electric railroads are examples. Any concern of that character may be entirely the property of private individuals, but the law says that its service must be continuous and that its owners shall not be free to shut down their plant whenever it may suit them to do so. The activity of the public utility has become so necessary a part of the public welfare of the community that its sudden stoppage would bring disaster and probable loss of life. The interests of The successful defense of the position was largely due to his courage. He personally lead his men out of the position after assistance arrived and before permitting himself to be attended. The courageous optimism and inspiring bravery of this officer enragged his men to a successful resistance in spite of five days of fighting hunger and exposure. PIG CLUBS ATTRACT BIG HEARTED MEN The Farm Bureau Agricultural Clubs are interesting not only the boys and girls of the county, but many of the big farmers and business men as well. When a Pig Club was proposed to the High School boys of Capistrano, the good news got to the ears of Aaron Buchelm and Dave Ross, two of the leading farmers of that section. They each volunteered to supply a sack of barley free of cost to each of the contestants that entered the pig club. Another good man in the other end of the county is Mr. S. H. Bowman, president of the Cypress Farm Center, who has set aside one hundred dollars for the use of the Cypress Farm Center Club to help the boys and girls finance the purchase of their pigs. This money is loaned to them at no interest on their personal note. Mr. Vance, Cashier of the Tustin First National Bank and Mr. Woodworth of the Garden Grove First National Bank have offered prizes for the winner of the Club contests in their respective Farm Center. That's the kind of co-operation we need. These are concrete examples of substantial encouragement for the upbuilding of the junior farmers of tomorrow. Prices are at times too high for can prices in no way lessens the importance of this point. These European nations have subsidized bread and they have subsidized home production of grain. England is pointed to by free-trade exponents so the great example of the benefits of free trade, but England is no more a free trade country than countries with high tariffs. England protects its industries with Government funds and taxes and is continuing its war-time price for home-grown grains with provision for guaranteeing the producer against loss if his government fostered grain growing is less profitable than some other phase of agricultural production. "Last year meats, hides, wool and many other products were dumped into this country through our adherence to free trade. The pages of our departmental reports are full of notes of instances of the rule that free trade is bringing to American agriculture. It is of first American importance now that we correct these evils. For the sake of common justice and humanity this emergency tariff is all too little for the farmer to ask of his government. Our farmers, as a whole, need help immediately and badly. A little help at once will be of far greater value than a great deal of help at a later date. In the meantime, we should take stock of the situation and consider our future policy. At present the need for Government help is greatest west of the Missouri River. Stockmen, in particular, need assistance. It was inevitable that there should be a carry over production into the period of readjustment. It is the duty of Government to assist in such crisis as this and we are the only country which is not endeavoring to aid our producers in this trying period. "There are those in the United States, who, I am sorry to say, seem to be willing to sacrifice our agriculture for the benefit of our industrial and commercial interests. It would be a short-sighted policy, indeed, which did not recognize the national necessity of a well-rounded economic development in this country. We cannot afford to adopt a policy which will even tend to develop here a peasant class, exploited in the interests of industrialism. With vanishing frontier lands, agricultural costs in the United States have been rising for the past 25 years. At the same time, until the artificial stimulus of the war intervened, we had become virtually a net importer of food stuffs. Many typical American products are being raised It is estimated that the number of railroad stockholders is 650,000, but many of them are banks, insurance companies, trust companies and other big corporations. Every bank depositor, policy holder, trust beneficiary, and owner of corporation stock is, therefore, the owner of an equity in the rail stock held by those concerns. "It has been stated," says the Bureau of Railway Economics, "that the ownership equities of the American railway are in the hands of more than 50,000,000 people." Now, the law demands and society requires that those people shall keep their properties in continuous operation for the benefit of all. In 1919, the latest figures available there were 1,977,616 railroad employees. Mr. Gompers undertakes to say that while the law may protect the whole nation against the action of practically half of the people, it is impotent to provide similar protection against the action of the comparatively insignificant number of employees. Nobody seeks to abridge the freedom of an individual employee to quit work, but when a conspiracy is manifest by which an organized group of workers seek to cripple transportation to attain their own selfish ends, it is time for the Government to step in and restrain the forces of capital. That all that the anti-strike bill now HOWARD COMES TO CALIFORNIA President J. R. Howard of the American Farm Bureau Federation has been invited by the Directors of the Orange County Farm Bureau to visit Orange County and learn Farm Bureau conditions here first handed. Orange County has one of the largest Farm Bureau Organization in the State, and is known generally as one of the most active, especially for agricultural legislation. President Howard is planning to spend the latter part of March in California to meet with the Directors of the California Federation of Farm Bureaus at Berkeley. Co-operative marketing, the bulk handling of grain and other economic issues will command his attention on this trip. Mr. Howard is to make a report on the tariff activities of the national organization. A committee will meet Howard at Los Angeles and escort him to Orange County where a mass meeting will be arranged for the Executive to meet the farmers of this county.
