GREATER THAN LEISURE

City laborers who are dependent
upon foods from farms are showing
very little concern. Strike after strike
has been called, some of them called
"legap some "illegal" for shorter
days work and more pay. Transport
alton has been demoralized while foods
in the form of cabbages, beans, corn
and other truck crops rotted in the
fields of Texas. Embargos against
shipping livestock to market have
forced prices of fresh meat out OF
reach of the poor, while farmers have
lost thousands of dollars on hogs. sheep
and cattle.
What encouragement for greater
production Can the higher wages and
shorter days of labor nourish laborers
when the supply is not sufficient to
meet the needs of ell? What good
will more pay and less work do If the
money fails to buy food?
Truly there are indications that the
poor in cities are beginning to feel the
pinch Of hunger. But farmers are not
to blame. They are doing their best
work to produce and get their products
to the hungry. Let the blame rest
where it belongs. Elk.
