ASSISTANCE FOR
FARMERS OF MAINE

A special committee of the State
committee on food production and
conservation, consisting Of Walter II.
SAWYER of Auburn, Leslie f. McIn
fire of East Waterford. DIR. Charles
ID. Woods of Orono and Frederic III.
Parkhurst of Bangor, Saturday made
its report to the main committee that
a fund should be created in each
county in the State and made avail
able for the assistance of farmers in
carrying forward their planting and
food production activities.
THE need for immediate action UNI
der existing circumstances in our
opinion makes it advisable that this
work should be handled in each coun-
ty on an Independent county basis"
says the report.
While not attempting to restrict
the methods employed the commit
tee suggests as q possible means for
doing this work the following plans:
First. Through an ARRANGEMENT
with the banks in the county by
which they will loan directly to farm
ers sums realized for increased crop
production upon the recommendation
and after thorough investigation by
| local finance committees located in
the respective towns Of the county
Second. By creating o fund
through subscription from residents
of the county which is available for
loan upon recommendation Of a
finance committee through some local
bank as depository.
Third. BY obtaining a fund by
loan from banks on negotiable note
signed by citizens of the county who
are ready 10 loan their credit for such
purpose and are each holden for a
limited and stated proportion of the
ehtlre loan. and in case Of any loss
that it he distributed pro rata. this
iund 70 be distributed on the recon-
mendation Of finance committee in
each town through a bank or depos-
tory.
The committee recommends that
the money obtained by the above or
any other method should be avail.

STATE OF MAINE
BY THE GOVERNOR
A Proclamation


We are at q crisis which may prove
to be the turning point of the world
struggle that is to determine whether
the hard-WOn fruits of centuries OF
Christian civilization must be sacri-
feed to the ruthless ambition of
brutal military despotism.
Hanging on the issue of this strug-
gle are all the ideals and aspirations
which are our heritage from the God
fearing frcemen who landed at
Plymouth Rock.
Let Friday, April nineteenth,
designated as Patriots Day, be OBJ
served in the spirit of the old New
England Fast Day which it con-
tinues. Let US make it an occasion
! to Almighty God for the speedy tri-
umph Of our righteous cause. Let us
beseech Him to guard and defend our
sailors and soldiers on land and sea.
to guide and direct those who lead US
in civil and military affairs, and to
comfort all who are bercaved.
And as the people of each neigh
b
houses or other public meeting
places let plans be made for the
utmost community cooperation
towards food production and all
other public duties essential for the
vigorous prosecution of the war.
