HOW ONE SMALL BOY
INCREASED THE CORN CROP
OF A WHOLE STATE

In the September American Maya
zine Stanley Johnson begins a series
of articles entitled, Youth Leads the
Way, which records some of the re-
cent wonderful agricultural achieve
ments of boys and girls between the
ages of ten and eighteen. Jerry
Moore, fifteen year old boy of South
Carolina, established world record
for corn growing with the result that
an awakened interest in corn growing
in the state increased the annual out
put of South Carolina, from 100000
to 100000 bushels year. All of this
work has been carried on in boys and
girls corn clubs and other agricultur-
al clubs under the direction Of the
Department Of Agriculture:
"Jerry raised little over 22S bush.
els Of corn, on one acre of land.
"His achievement was established
in the archives of the Agricultural De-
partment in a way that satisfied the
incredulous. But his influence has
brought a tremendous army Of boys
J in the Southern states to attention,
| with their hands on the pillow. The
year following there were over sew
enty-fiye thousand boys and girls
(mostly boys) enrolled in club activ-
ties, Jerry Moore had been toted
from Boston to Seattle by various or.
CARNATIONS. He was the biggest hu.
man advertisement ever let loose.
His harrow was a sacred exhibit at
the National Corn Show and other
kindred gatherings.
Every farmers boy saw a chance
an opportunity that had never before
been dreamed of. Up in the North
ern states where the club movement
was not started until 1913, they were
envious, because corn does not grow
so abundantly up there, In a Sunday
School in another state, when a boy
was asked II he knew about Jeremiah
= he replied he did not.
but know all about Jerry Moore
he added. The Southern railroads
: used him to attract settlers Within
three years the corn crop or Soutl
Carolina jumped from 100000 bu
shells a year, to 100000! The corr
crop of Mississippi has doubled ant
l. the yield per acre, in every one o
the fifteen Southern states has in
creased since Jerry Moore's exploit!

Rockefeller Wealth
Declared Menace to
Welfare Of Nation
Industrial Investigator Urges CURLING
Foundations Backed by Pri.
vate Fortunes

Chicago, Aug. 25-Evidence in sup
port of the statement that the lives
Of millions of wage earners are sub
ject to the dictation of relatively
small number of men, is cited at
length in the third and final section
made public today of the report of
Basil M. Manly, director of research
and investigation for the United
States commission on industrial re-
lations.
The following allegations are made
as statements of fact based on the
testimony and evidence in the hands
of the commission:
Except, perhaps, for improvements
in safety and sanitation, the labor
conditions of corporation controlled
industries are subject to grave criti.
cism and are a menace to the well
fare Of the nation.
In order to prevent the organIza.
ton of employees for the improve
ment of working conditions, elaborate
systems Of espionage are maintained
by the larger operations which re-
fuse to deal with labor unions and
employees suspected of union affilia-
ton are discharged.
THE domination by the men in
whose hands the final control of a
large part of American industry rests
is not limited to their employees but
is being rapidly extended to control
the education and social service of
the nation.
Foundation Declared Menace
This control is being extended
largely through the creation of enor-
nous privately managed funds for
indefinite purposes, hereinafter desig-
mated foundations, by the endowment
of colleges and universities by the
creation of funds for the pensioning
of teachers, by contributions to pri-
vate charities as well as through con.
trolling or influencing the public
| press.
The Rockefeller foundations en-
trance into the field of Industrial re-
lations through the creation of a
special division, 1t is declared, consti.
tutes menace to the national well
fare to which the attention not only
of Congress, but of the entire coun-
try, should be directed. Backed by
the sl00,0OO,000 movement has the
power to influence the entire country
in the determination Of its most Wit
al policy"
Mr.. Rockefeller is charged with
planning to utilize literature which
was known to him at the time to be
untrue and misleading in a so called
union educational campaign.
There is developing says the re-
port degree of control over the
teaching of professors in our colleges
and universities which constitutes a
most serious menace.
Congress Urged to Act
Congress is urged to enact statute
providing that all incorporated non.
profit making bodies, whose present
charters empower them to perform
more than single specific function
