SCARCITY OF FOOD FORESEEN
UNLESS AID Is GIVEN IN

Edwin T. Meredith, Secretary Of Az
ricuIture, Issues Appeal to City
DweIlers to Come to Aid of Farmer
in Gathering Crops This Summer.
The photograph

Washington.-App to city
dwellers to aid the farmers harvest
their crops this summer, Edwin T.
Meredith, Secretary of Agriculture, de-
cared that without such aid 'sthere Is
serious danger of a food scarcity next
winter" Handicapped by combina-
ton of circumstances oyer which he
has, no, control the American farmer,
the Secretary insists, is doing his. ut
most to meet the food needs of the
country. IT,
He absolves him of suspiciOnl of
Stacking on the job. Because, how
ever, of handicaps, chief am6ngs Which
is the shortage of labor. the Secretary
declares the farmer is faced by the
necessity of curtailing his production,
unless aid is assured him.
For this reason Mr.. Meredith urgent
ly appeals to city business Organiza-
lions and student bodies throughout
the country to pledge themselves to
send large numbers to the farms this
summer and help the farmer gather
his crops.
"Fhe problem" he declared, sis as
much the city mans as it is the farm
ers Their interests are inter-depend-
ent. I often wonder if the Inhabitants
of the cities realize how closely them
problems come home to them.
with the exception of the packing
centers, the cities of the country have
on hand at any time enough meat to
feed them perhaps four days. They
have enough -four to last only a few
weeks. Their vegetables and fruits
come in from day to day. Practically
everything they eat is only few days,
or at most a few weeks removed from
the farm. Whenever there is short
age of production it is reflected almost
instantly upon city jewellers.
1--WE face at present the danger Of
such a shortage for the next year.
Curtailed acreage necessarily means
curtailed food production, and with
out adequate labor farmers can not
maintain adequate acreage. Not alone
is there a shortage of 80 per cent in
the supply of hired farm labor, but
farm work is behind because of the
backward spring."
