INDUSTRY>>A AND AGRICULTURE
DISCUSSED AT NATIONAL
FERTILIZER ASSOCIA-
TION MEETING

One of the outstanding addresses
at the annual southern convention
of the National Fertilizer Associa7.
ton at Atlanta, November 10 and
IL, was an address discussing the
handicap of areas that are ex-
clusively agricultural, by DR.. H. A.
Morgan, President of the University
of Tennessee, one of the foremost
agricultural authorities of the whole
south.
In thickly settled Europe, in
dustry and agriculture already wash
one another's hands by reason of
their intermingled locations. In
America industrial areas are as yet
located separately from agricultural
areas; and labor in one has little in
common with labor in the other.
President Morgan prepared a for
ward-looking analysis of this whole
situation that will undoubtedly prove
of wide public interest. His long
experience as a scientific agricultural
investigator, and then as an i'm
portant administrative officer in
agricultural colleges and experiment
stations, fit him unusually to throw
light upon this subject. AS Presl-
dent of an important and growing
southern university, he views the
problem from a broad standpoint OF
the highest public interest and deals
with it in expert but practical
fashion.
President Morgan was a member
of the, American Commission for the
Study of Rural Credits and Coopera-
lion in Europe in 1928. Thls
brought him in contact with the
broad economic problems OF agricul-
ture in other countries, in COMPARE
son with his own intimate knowledge
OF that subject in this country. 1t
also broadened his association with
other scientific men working in the
;ame field. The subject of this ad--
less is of practicular interest to all
concerned with the development OF
rural areas, and especially fertilizer
manufacturers, who are interested ir
the development of the use of fertil-
izer President Morgan spoke for
the benefit of the members OF the
National Fertilizer Association or
his vital subject from intimate ane
almost lifelong study OF it.
Another speaker of Importance
was Charles H. Mcdowell, Presi-
dent of the Armour Fertilizer Works,
Chicago. He was Chief of the
Chemical Division of the War In
iustries Board and is recognized
authority on the utilization of
Muscle Shoals power for both in
dustrial and military purposes. He
discussed 1.-The Best Use OF Muscle
Shoal." a. subject to which he has
given great attention from economic
engineering and agricultural view
points.

THE SPREAD IN EDUCATION

The urge for education in this
country has grown to such proper
tions that educational institutions
are being taxed to their utmost to
house the millions clamoring for
admission.
This year New York City. has
enrolled, for the first time In It's
history, more than a million children
in its public school classes. Chicago
has to its credit more than half
million. SO 1t goes throughout the
country. This is the contribution
which our public schools are max
ing to the nation. 1t is the-coun-
try's investment in its future.
The broad diffusion OF education
brings into conspicuous view the
force OF the dominating idea OF the
nation equality of opportunity.
Education is not confined to white
collars" Scholastic training pene
trates farm, factory and workshop
Hundreds OF thousands are sub
jected to its influence in night
classes, extension classes, part-time
classes, correspondence courses and
at home, by radio. 1t makes edu-
cation-as is proper in a nation
founded ON democracy--democratic
This spread OF learning calls fol
an equalization in our social status
and education must establish 1t.
Existing social classifications can
hardly survive the present leveiing'
influence of literacy. In this coun-
try, where a laborer today becomes
a bank president tomorrow; where
shop mechanic lifts himself to motor
magnate; where the self-made rise
suddenly from obscurity to emf
nence, there is needed a new soclai
recognition for all honorable oci
cupations. Educational tendencies
must not be controlled by but must
control that social standing.
Education is the great leveler-
1t is breaking down the barriers be-
tween those who toll by hand and
those who labor by brain; 1t is tear
ing down the wall that separates the
socially elect from those of humble
origin. Step by step this country is
moving in the evolution OF a new
measure for social yalue-worth
rather than wealth-where, il there
be any aristocracy at all, it will be
an aristocracy of brains. 1t is tend!
ing more and more to become the
worlds true index of value. For IL
every occupation men and women
are measured by their works, and
the quality of their work is in the
main affected by the knowledge and
training education bestows.
THE Coloneps Lady and Judy
O'Grady" may be sisters under the
skim but education brings the
equality to visible surface.

In the final analysis the idea'

4 thousand pound beef steer of
