CAMPS HELPING TO
PUT DOALARS IN CIR
CULATION
CULATION

In practically all sections Of the
couhtry the Presidents feforestation
program is now in operation. Els
Enlistment Of the forestry work
camps has put millions of dollars
into circulation, greatly relieved the
unemployment situation, improved
vast tracts of national cumberland
and accomplished wonders in fire
prevention work. In addition, the
supplies for these camps, both for
food and permanent equipment, has
given business throughout the coun-
try a decided boost that will help us
up the ladder to recovery.
Robert Fechner, director of the

thinks the work of the forest corps
will pay dividends both now and in
the future. He says: ''The forss-
tation, soil and erosion and flood
control work that the men of the
Civilian Conservation Corps are per-
forming will pay dividends to the
present and every succeeding gem
Grafton. The fire prevention and
fire control work will undoubtedly
greatly reduce the losses that have
occurred in our remaining standing
timber due to forest fires"
The upturn in industry is said to
be taking considerable number of

furnish proof that jobs have been
offered them are given honorable
discharges from the Civilian Conser-
walton Corps.

THE N r. A

Some decidedly sour notes are be-
ing heard in the grand chorus of N
R A cooperation an exchange re-
marks. There are many powerful
undercurrents of criticism and OPP
position. Some of the very biggest
industrial magnates are refusing to
accept the recovery program and are
raising basic objections to ii, 9th
ers are stalling or embarrassing
the administration, or thinking up
ways to accept the letter of the code
and violate it's spirit, such as putting
people on commission instead of pay
ing wages. Thousands of the smart
est lawyers in the country are now at
work advising their big clients how
they can evade the new requirements
or ward off the blow until cases can
be taken into the courts. Milk pro-
ducers have brought federal salt,
charging unconstitu&ionality.
All this opposition was expected,
and it has only strengthened the
hands of the government General
Johnson and his aids are Issuing
constant warnings to those who seek
to beat the code in any way. "Chis-
elers" and "slackers' are not only
to be compelled to get in line and
obey but will be held up to public
scorn. Persons who are caught vio-
lating the code may be penalized
under the laws against using the
mails to defraud.
A huge army of "vigilantes" is be-
ing organized by the labor unions, to
keep watch everywhere throughout
the country and report cases where
employers are not coming up to the
scratch, and also follow up house
wives and other consumers to see
that they do not patronize concerns
that are outside the code or break
ing the rules.
In many cases the N r A officials
refuse to o. X. certain parts of the
code as presented; then hearings
may have to be held, and finally,
when the officials think code is in
line with the Recovery law, they
submit it TO the President for his
final approval. Even then, most Of
the codes now being adopted are
only mporary-intended to bridge
over the gap until permanent codes
can be put in force. In some cases
the permanent codes may be still
stricter, while in others there may
be some relaxation of the require
ments.
In a general way one-fourrh of 81:
American industry is now under the
N r A codes, ana the number is in
creasing every day The goal is to
get 100000 unemployed back to
work by Labor Day, Sept 4. This
will be practically the halfway mark
in the big job.

AVERAGE COST OF RAISING
BUSHEL OF WHEAT Is
55 CENTS

The average cost to raise bushel
of wheat in the United States last
year was SIS cents, according to the
Service Division of The American
Agricultural Chemical Company.
However, great variation in produc-
tion costs is seen; in New England
it cost a net SO cents to grow a BUSH
ell of wheat, but in western states
the average cost of production was
less than half the amount, or As
cents. With some farmers the cost
of producing wheat was three or
four times what it was with other
farmers.
Pointing out that the net profit
which farmer makes at the end of
a year depends less upon how much
wheat he markets than aow cheaply
he raises his crop, the Service Divi-
sion of The American Agricultural
Chemical Company sees the proposed
limitaticx of wheat acreage by the
Government as a step in the right
bat advocates a program
of intensive cultivation of the land
planted. "If by better methods a
farmer can get 20 bushels of wheat
instead of IL per acre, It stands to
reason that he can cut his acreage in
half and still make as much money.
With the money he saves in labor by
the elimination of half the acreage,
he can give more intensive cultiva-
ton to the land he has planted and
can buy fertilizer to promote the
growth of the crop. The question is
not how many acres Of wheat can be
planted by farmer, but how much
wheat can he get OFF one acre. The
cost of producing one bushel of
wheat determines how profitable the
crop is to farmer. The situation Is
parallel to a manufacturer Of shoes,
for example. This manufacturer can

small, but important municipal ref
erendum is shown by one just held
in Rising Sun, Md.
1t will be recalled that Rising
Sun has no sewer system and that
the State Board of Health has been
urging it to install one for the pro-
lection of the public health.
Finally it was suggested that the
town bond itself for $4,000 to sup
ply the need. Opposition to the
loan manifested itself at once. The
referendum was held on last Tues
day. When the votes were counted
it was discovered that the oppon-
ents of the sewer loan had won the
day by just 13 votes-truly an un-
lucky number for the friends of
health and decency of living.
