Amecrican farmers wouldl be getting
neardy a billion and a half dollars
more annually if thcy were marketing
their1 products umder the provisions of
the ,4igNary-IHaugen agricultural re-
lief ~meiasure which was vetoed by
President Coolidge at the last ses-
sion~ ~Congress, according to Gil-
bert H1augen, Congressman from
Iowa and co-author of the bill.
Haugen is confident that the re-
vised"Thll which has been brought be-
fore the house wviii again he passed
and thinks it stands a good chance of
being approved by the President. The
new bill still holds the equalization
fee 9.1ause to which President Cool-
idlge s6 strongly objected, but most of
the other objectionable features have
been eliminated.
In the estimation of Congressman
Haugen, the bill will enable the farm-
ers to share part of the $7,000,000,000
adde'd-to the country's revenue by en-
forcement of tariff, transp~ortation,
and immigration laws. If the bill is
passed it will afford $1,442,000,000 to
the farmers, a -sum that will pay off
the farm debt within i11 years. AtI
pre'sent there is an average shortage
of $1,175, allowing six per cent for in-.
vestment.
Last year, ending June 30, 7,777 of
a total of 47,000 bankruptcies were
farmers, according to 1-augen. He
also shows the difference in the stand-
ard of farmers and other workers.
The average farmer has an annual in-
come of $730 per year, $630 of it be-
ing expended for fuel, while the en-
come of those engaged in manufactur-
ing is $1,572, of minister, $1,298, and
of teachers $1,650.

6IVES STATISTICAL DATA
Advocating additional research into
social cases of the professional crim-
inal as "worth all the time and money
that we can spend on it," Prof.
Arthur Evans Woods, in a recent pub-
lished paper on the subject urges fur-
ther facilitie's for this work through-
out the country. "With the accumu-
lation of definite sociological material
in this field we should have in time
abundant data on the genesis of the
criminal mind," the report slates. "It
is a process, which I fear, will suffer
but little check from the improve-
ments in the criminal law to which
the leaders of the bar are assiduously
giving their attention."
After a. rather complete elucidation
of the factors which make the pro-
cess of criminal research highly val-
uable to the study of crimiq~ology and
the solution of the crime situation,
Professor Wood states that this brings
us, finally, to consider the sociological
approach which leads (lirectly to the
heart of problems in criminal re-
search. To sub-stantiate this state-
ment let us state briefly some of the

underlying concepts of modern sociol-
ogy. First of all, it studlies man as a1
secius. that is, as a member of aI
group. It makes sharp divi'sion be-
t ween heredity and environment, con-.
ceiving them b)oth as joined inex-
tricably in a mutually dependent and
interacting relationship. The term ex-
])ressing this synthesis is "develop-
ment," which implies both the biolog-
ically given and Ihe conditioning en-
vi ronment, the latter involving ma-
terial culture but also the ideals, cus-
toms, habits, and mores of the group.
For the undlerstanding of the indi-
vidual therefore, the central clue is
his social heritage, which becomes, as
it were, focused in his mind and per-
s onal ity.
"Thie individual and social mind are
thus parts of an organic whole which
are viewed in isolation only at the
cost of rendering them both meatilng-
lcsi. In the developing conscious-
ness of the individual awareness of
self is contemporary with an aware-
ness of the group, and personal
development, or the 'dialectic of per -
sonal growth,' as it has been called, in-
volves throughout experience a give
and take between these two poles of
the life process. Hence it is that in-
dividual standards and values are
likely -to be those of the group,
though room is left for pirogress

through individual variation and but these are conditioned by and find
selection. The individual envisages their fulifiliment through social en-
himself as he is reflected in the mind vironment."
