OLD MEMS DOLLARS

This young man of whom Mr..
Speicher speaks can preserve the old
mans money only through invest

OF what he earns today to provide
against the needs and exigencies of
tomorrow. And of all investments

money invested in life insurance

fact that most people will go to al

CCC Camps Providing
New Class of LabOrers

Employers in Delaware are be-
coming aware that excellent labor
supplies are available in the CCC
camps. They have come to realize
that the original training of the
men. plus the strict discipline, and
the life in the open, has created. in
most instances. concentrated force
of highly desirable prospective en-
ployees
This is evidenced by a letter re-
ceived by w. S. Corkran, executive
officer and engineer of the Delaware
Mosquito Control Commission. from
| Fl. P. Young, Federal ReemplOy-
ment Director for Delaware, and
which was read before a recent
gathering of the approximately 120
boys whose enrolment terminates
/ with the end of this year.
Says Mr.. Young's letter: u have
had a number of the men who have
attended CCC camps stop in my Of
flee. and | can usually spot those
who have attended camps by the
snappy way in which they enter the

dispatch with which they state their
mission and answer questions. and
the courteous Sir which they use in
conversation. | am sure CCC train
ing has been very valuable to these
men and the splendid effect has
been noticeable upon number of
those with whom I have come in

4 LOGICAL ALLIANCE

In addressing the National Coon
el ative Milk Producers Federation
convention recently. Fred S. Sexau-
er. President of the Dairymen's
League Cooperative Association.
said that stabilization of the dairy
industry is dependent upon achiev-
ing cooperation between three agen-
cies-the faTmer-Owned cooperative
marketing associations. the state
milk control boards, and the federal
farm relief boards. Each of these
agencies has done and will do work
of great value-but none is COM
pletely sufficient unto itself. All
three must work together if the
greatest good for all concerned is
to be realized.
That plan is a good one-for far
mers dealing in all commodities, as
well as dairy products. The cooper
atives face various problems with
which they are unable to success
fully cope alone. By the same token,
the state and federal agencies are
potent influences in certain direc-
tions and Intellectual in others. When
they all work together, the farmer
and the consuming public reap the
benefits.
1t is worth observing, in this con-
nection, that the federal govern
ment and the states have been most
successful in forwarding farm re-
lief when they have worked in con-
nection with the cooperatives, both
through aiding their creation and in
lending a hand afterward in efforts
to smooth the path. If government
seeks to bring farmers out of the
economic woods entirely through its
own activities, 1t is doomed to fail
only relief work that can
produce permanent good is 9lat in
which the farmer himself puts
shoulder to the wheel. The triumvi-
rate of which Mr.. Sexauer spoke is
