Assistant Secretary of Agri-
culture Says Govt. May
Have to Take Over Farm
Work.
ENLISTMENT OF CITY
LABOR IS NECESSARY
Opposes Price Fixing in the
Future; Big Problem
is Labor.

Fifteen workless days in non-essen-
tial industries to release the men for
farms Is advocated by Assistant Agri-
culture Secretary Ouslcy before the
senate agriculture committee. He
said the releases could be spread over
a period of several weeks, when the
labor shortage is most acute. He said
it may be necessary for the govern
ment to take over farming work be-
fore we can win the war. England
is practically conducting its own far
ming. He said the problem from now
on is the labor problem.
Enlist City Labor.
He said the salvation of the sea-
sons crops is largely dependent up
on enlistment of city labor. Many
prosperous residents in big cities who
are still reaping big profits should be
willing to sacrifice the comforts
they are accustomed to. He urged
business men and others experienced
on farms to close their desks on GER
tain days Of the week and work in
agriculture. Women would also be
useful in many lines Of farming. He
said there d be considerably increased
wheat acreage exceptata the drought
blighted districts of the southwest.
He said he opposed price fixing in the
future.

this probable action than was possible
a year ago. All drafted men sent
ever can't be seasoned for an often
sive this spring. but before long they
can be fed into the various sectors,
relieving the seasoned forces on
guard and forming a manpower
reserve. Military men say a victory
basis can be formed this year if the
allies do not delay until Germany
has relped the Advantages Of the Rus
sian and Rumanian crashes. Within
a year and a half she will be well
sustained with food and supplies
from the near east so the blow now
will find her more vulnerable than
she would be later.

Store Keeping In
War Times

II Is very much harder to
conduct a store now than IL
was in normal times. Merchan-
disc is difficult to obtain; trans
portation Is very uncertain'
prices are higher than ever be
fore; many war time rules
must be observed.
We are not asking for sym
pathy: nor are we parading our
patriotism We simply want
you to understand that every
good merchant is doing his
very best to keep prices as low
as possible; to protect his Gus
toners in every way.
We must all accept today's
conditions cheerfuIly and Will
ingly. for after all our sacri-
fices amount to very. very lit
tie. when compared to the all
that thousands Of our boys are
giving to make the world a de-
cent place to live in
