said Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
today. There are not enought people
on the farms raising food and toomany
people are going to the towns to be
fed. There are three-quarters of a
million people coming to the United
States annually from abroad. They
do not go to the farms but to the cit

duce nothing to eat, although they do
produce something to drink"
Have you any plan to induce peo-
pie to go on the farms where they
may help to raise food?" the Secre-
uary was asked.
Jim Hill says they will go there
when they get hungry" answered the
Secretary.

daily in the stock yards here. The ina
iority are called angoras, and hail
from Texas, but many an enterprising
farmer is taking advantage of the sit
nation by disposing of the children's
