IORROw COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER
NATIONAL ATTACK ON
ILLITERACY.

A bill introduced in both houses
of Congress too late for action in the
cluttered and jumbled session that
expired March 4th possesses a ma
tional attack upon the national dis
grace of illiteracy. About ten per
cent of the population of this coun-
try above ten years cannot read the
language of the country, Some are
native-born whites, some native-born
negroes and some are immigrants.
Thus those to whom the language
of the country is sealed book are
rather evenly distributed between
North and South. This is according
to a statement made in the Saturday
Evening Post, and that paper goes
on TO say:
With almost one person out of ten
in a position so disadvantageous to
himself and to the country it would
be national problem anyway. The
geographical distribution empha-
sizes its national character.
With millions shut out from the
great common medium of express
ion, for whom Presidents procla-
nation OF a village ordinance is so
much Greek, when the Aug Of
events and opinions that shapes ma
tional life cannot reach except in
directly or secondhand, the melting
pot obviously contains a huge chunk
that does not blend very readily.
That more than half the chunk is a
native product makes it all the
worse.
1t is a problem that should have
been vigorously attacked long ago.
This bill proposes a Federal appro-
priation to be expended in conjunc-
ton with the states that conform to
the educational program laid down
for the special purpose of reaching
those unable to read English. 1t
should be put near the top of the
calendar of the new Congress and

Many interpreters of literature fail
to learn the cardinal lesson that true
greatness lies in simplicity and that
absolute fidelity to nature is the dis
tinguishing mark of the artist. This
great lesson Bess Gearhart Morrison
learned in the refining school of ex-
perience. AS a result her impersona
tions take on a character wholly sep
arate and apart from the ordinary
impersonation. The men and women
she portrays are human folks with
human faults, She holds the mirror
up to Nature. Her understanding and
sympathy are wonderful; her ability
to touch and keep in tune with her
the heartstrings of her hearers is al
most uncanny. Mrs. Morrison is COM
ing soon on the Lyceum course and
in her coming a real opportunity pre-
sents itself. Every lover of inter
pretative art should hear her.

LOOKING FOR MEN TO
WORK en- FARMS

The farm service division Of the
United States employment service is
finding ii rather difficult undertak ing
to secure an adequate labor supply
for the farms Of Virginia. While
labor for Industrial purposes Is becpm-
ing more plentiful and all indications
point to surplus in the immed ate
future, applications for farm work are
not keeping pace with the demand by
any means.
AT the office of James II. Bolts. fed
erai state director. II was stated today
that the farm service division now has
on file a large list OF land owners who
would let their farms to desirable ten
ants on a share basis the owner fur
nishing everything required. The ten
ant should preferably he a man with
sufficient family to provide his own
labor supply.
Then, there are a class of land own
ers who are anxious to employ first
class farm labor. the rate of pay being
from SOS to s45 per month, with living
quarters, garden and other free induce
ments. The opportunities offered in
many cases, according to George NJ
Inman, who is in charge of the farm
service division. are such as to attract
superior class of skilled farmers
Unless more men can be induced to
return to the farms the shortage OF
farm labor will become acute. Vir-
rinia faces a reduced acreage this year,
just when the world cry Of famine"
rings in our ears. and the opportunity
tn make money following the piow
never appeared better.
