ROOSEVELT LAUDS
NEW FARM PLAN
Elimination" of Additional
Levies Seen in Remarks
on Program.
BACKGROUND


NeD Deal farm program built
around crop control, benefit pay
ments to farmers and tares upon
professors Dds inUdliddted by
United States Supreme Court on
January s.
Administration then called in
farm leaders, subsequently an
nounced agreement on sepen-point
program based upon Federally
subsidized soil conservation.
With processing tar collections
ended, Government faces question
OF disposition OF benefit contracts
already made NTH farmers; yes
terddy Senate Agriculture Commit
tee approved measure appropriate
ing $500. 1000. 900 for this purpose.
BY the Associated Press.
Confidence that the new farm plan
proposed under soil erosion and con-
servation laws would carry out the
purposes of the dead A. A. A. and
bring about what he considers a well
rounded agricultural development of
the Nation was expressed today by
President Roosevelt.
The Chief Executive discussed the
agricultural problem at his press con-
ference after stipulating that he was
rot replying to the farm address last
night by former President Hoover. He
explained he had not had an oppor-
tunity yet to read the Hoover speech.
There was an intimation that new
taxes might be necessary to meet the
program as a substitute for the old
processing levies killed by the Supreme
Court. The President said, however,
he was not ready to discuss that phase.
Mr.. Roosevelt said slight amend
ments to the existing soil erosion and
conservation acts will be necessary.
He reserved any estimate on the
amount of money which would be re-
quired by the Government to lease
land from farmers under the proposed
plan.
$500, 10000 for Program.
Some congressional leaders who at
tended yesterdays White House farm
conference had mentioned $500, ,000,-
900 to $400,O00,00O as necessary for
carrying out the program in 1886.
Mr.. Roosevelt emphasized that soil
erosion constitutes not only the actual
washing away of soil into river beds,
but also loss of chemicals in the soil
resulting from continued use for the
same crop.
Asked if this Interpretation did not
bring every farm of the country under
the scope of the erosion law, the Presi-
dent said he thought it did.
He explained the existing machinery,
including county agents, probably
would be employed in carrying out the
purpose of the new program.
Saying the undertaking under soil
erosion constituted no change in the
administration farm relief effort, the
President recalled a statement he
made last october 25. From it he
read to a crowded press conference
reference to "a long time, more
permanent plan for American agricul-
ture."
such a longtime program is de-
veloping naturally out of the present

day Premier Pierre Laval had told
Great Britain that any marching Of
German soldiers into the demilitarized

Thomas, informed sources reported,
called at the Quai D'Orsay to ask
specifically what position France
would take if German troops entered
the demilitarized zone.
The reply, these sources stated, was
that all of Frances frontier garrisons
would be reinforced Immediately.

ATHLETIC NEWS

The Field Ball Champions of Wor-
cester County played their final coun-
ty game at Pocomoke on Friday of
last week.
The team regretted the absence of
Wilson, who plays an inside position,
but the place was very well played
by both Parsons and Clark. No other
substitutions were made.
Both the half-backs and goal-keep-
ers succeeded in keeping the ball away
from the opponents territory, with
the exception of two goals being scor-
ed by Coulbourne. The final score
was IL to in favor of Snow Hill.
On Tuesday, Of last week Berlin and
Snow Hill played the decisive game,
for championship. In order that GER
tain players might receive their points
the following substitutions were made
Parsons, Taylor, Dryden, Disharoon,
and Twigg. The final score was 22
to 6 in favor of Snow Hill. Goals
were made by Jones, Haddock and
Godfrey.

SOCCER TEAM WINS ONE
TIES ONE

The past week found the Snow Hill
High School soccer eleven engaged in
two games, one on the home grounds
with Berlin-the other at Pocomoke.
The first game was played on Tues
day at the High School. The rival
teams were in deadlock for the first
half of the game, neither team being
able to score. Late in the third quar-
ter "Colie" Timmons, who was playing
center halfback because of a switch
in the lineup, scored spectacular
goal from his offensive position. This
put the game on ice for the home
team. The remainder of the game was
played without incident and the final
score was 20 in favor of Snow Hill.
On Friday the squad travelled to
Pocomoke for the final game of the
current season. Neither of the teams
would have profited from victory, in
asmuch as the county title is concern
ed, but there were a number of SEN
iors on both teams, playing their last
games for their respective high
schools and naturally both squads
were determined to win. Probably
the best possible result for both sides
was tie and that is what happened
The first half was decidedly POGO
moke's. They kept the ball in front
of the Snow Hill goal constantly and
when the half ended Pocomoke was
leading 20. During the rest period
between halves, several changes were
made in the lineup. Townsend was
returned to the center forward posi-
ton, Disharon to goal, and on the
whole much improved lineup facec

the Pocomoke boys at the beginning
eff the second half. The result was
that the Pocomoke squad was placed
on the defensive. Townsend scored
his usual goal during the half and
tied the score at 2 all. In this way
there was victory neither team and
satisfaction for both.
With the soccer season now COM
pleted the soccer boys will center their
attention on the activities of the field
ball girls, who, they hope, are on their
way to a state championship.

PARENTS WEEK AT SCHOOL

The past week has been one OF ex-
element for some of the boys and
girls. AS the week was visitors week,
some were afraid their mother might
come in class quite unexpectedly and
see them either misbehaving or with
their lesson unprepared which would
cause both the pupil and the mother
some embarrassment.
There were quite few people who
visited in the elementary grades, but
only very few in high school. We
all wonder why this is true.
The room which had the greatest
number of visitors is to receive two
dollars with which to buy a book for
that home room.

SNOW HILL PUPILS BECOME
INTERESTED IN XMAS
HEALTH SEALS

Boys and girls of the Snow Hill
School are asking many questions. OF
what Importance are Christmas
Health Seals? When, where, and by
whom was the idea originated? Why
should the people of this community
buy Christmas Health Seals this
year?
The Christmas Health Seal was
born in 1904 far across the sea in
Denmark, the land where some of the
loveliest fairy tales were born. The
story of the Christmas Health Seals
reads like fairy tale, too. 1t has an
ogre in Tuberculosis of course.
Jacob Riis learned how the people
of Denmark were securing the means
of fighting tuberculosis, and deter
mined to begin such fight in Amer
lea. The idea spread like wildfire.
Since 1907 the selling of Christmas
Health Seals has been the means of
combating a most dreadful disease.
The Christmas Health Seal is not
just a way to raise money. 1t is to
protect boys and girls, men and wo-
men, against a foe that was old when
the pyramids were young. 1t is a
way of making US realize that no one
is safe from "the pestilence that walk
eth" in darkness, until all of us are
safe.
Therefore, the pupils of Snow Hill
High School intend to use Health
Seals on Christmas packages this
year.
