The Department Of Agriculture
today took steps to throw into
gear machinery for launching the
soil conservation program, sue
cessor to the AAA, following sigma
ture of the farm bill by President
Roosevelt yesterday.
Invitations we're sent out to
more than 500 farm leaders to
attend regional conferences at
Memphis and Chicago March S,
and z. and at New York and
Salt Lake City March Q, 10 and
II, where detailed plans for the
program will be revealed by the
department chiefs.
In signing the bill, President
Roosevelt said that. while the
new act was not a "panacea or
final plan" it provides the
foundation Of a longtime pro-
gram aimed at establishing parity
income for farmers.
The President gave as the three
main objectives Of the program,
conservation Of soil; reestablisn-
ment and maintenance Of farm
income at "fair" levels, 80 that
the great gains made by agricul-
ture in the past three years can
be preserved and the national

CCC POLITICS
FLAYED BY
F0RESTERS
BY EARL GOODWIN

And now the scientific foresters
Of the country drop their axes and
take up the old Indian war
hatchet, which they are burying
today with all their might in the
backs Of the Administration Off
cials responsible for filtering ma
tional politics into the CCC camps
as far as conservation work is con-
, cerned.
In fact, one charge of these for
esters Is that the Interior Depart
ment has filled the woods with
more good Democrats than there
are trees, and that q man has to
be q Democrat first and forester
second to get one Of the many
thousand jobs in the CCC.
All this hullabaloo arises today
from the ordinarily quiet Society
o. American ForeSters, who met
and resolved and resigned several
weeks ago in q Southern city, but
whose protests have been publ
cized today in q bulletin from the
American Tree Association OF this
city. ..
The foresterS have nothing
against Democrats; but thinks
that they ought to stay out OF
the woods until they know one
end Of an ak from another. This
influx Of Democrats, due to po-
litical pressure from every Demo
cratic office holder from State
legislators up to national law.
makers, has done everything to
conservation except improve it,
the reports from various State
forestry officials indicate.
In fact, the CCC camps are so
bad, says one forester, that the
net result of the system "is Zero"
The camps are worthless, in the
opinion of Thomas w. Alexander,
q forester of ASheville, N. c. An
other forester, DR.. D. S. Jeffers,
dean Of the School of Forestry
at the University of Idaho. says
that the CCC camps remind him
"of Q glorified Boy Scout move
ment."
he American Tree Association
makes it plain that it has no part
in the criticisms from these va
rious scientific foresters.'

hazards for the men who drive than
speedway race at Indianapolis.
Road racing is new to the present
generation of American fans and
drivers. At Indianapolis, the turns are
banked. At Roosevelt Raceway, we'll
hit hair-pin turns that are unbanked.
At Indianapolis, substantially the
same speed is possible all through the
race. At Roosevelt Raceway, we'll hit
$50 miles an hour on the straight
away. then will be forced to come
down to 60 or 70 miles an hour in
order to skid around those sharp turns
which are both to right and left. At
Indianapolis, we need virtually no
brakes. At Roosevelt Raceway, brakes
probably will win or lose the race.
Skill is a great factor in either type
of racing, Of course But accidents do
happen, even to the finest of drivers.
Take the case of Babe Stapp of Los
Angeles in the 1890 Indianapolis race
which Billy Arnold won. I finished
fourth that year.
Stapp came out of the pits after
stop for repairs and hit the first turn
just as Fred Roberts car spun around
and started to slide.
Stapp had to think in split seconds.
He cut his car sharply for the inside,
figuring to miss Roberts.
But he had no such luck. As Stapp
headed for the inside, Roberts car
spun around again. and Stapp ploughed
into it. The crash knocked the front
end from Stapp's mount and sent it
plowing first into the inside wall and
then against the outer barrier.
His car a wreck, Stapp was clam
bering out when Lou Moore. coming
into the turn, crashed into his ma
chine and piled up on the outside
wall. They climbed over the barricade
to see four more cars come spinning
into the mess.
1t was one of the most spectacular
mix-ups Indianapolis ever saw. And
it had one of the most unexpected
sequels. With seven cars and fourteen
men involved, no man was injured.
Babe Stapp. who is never seen with
out smile, has survived a number of
exciting accidents. In April of 1882 at
Ascot. his car hit a wet spot on a turn
and he came out with a broken left
arm. his right ear practically torn OF.
conclusion of the brain. right leg
torn to the bone and three ribs broken.
But he's still driving. And he'll prob
ably be driving at Roosevelt Race
way this Monday.
The 1927 race at Indianapolis was
marked by one of the most dramatic
near-tragedies ever seen on any track
- and provided an example Of the
courage which makes us proud of the
racing profession.

To He'll With Hozord!"
Confinvsd from poss Two

Coming into the home stretch at ITO
miles an hour, Norman Batten ran
over sharp piece of metal. 1t pierced
his gasoline tank. and Batten's car
burst into flames just as he arrived
in front of the crowded stands which
range for three-quarters of a mile
along the straightaway.
Batten saw the danger not only to
himself but to other drivers and. pos
sibly, to spectators in the infield. The
flames drove him from his seat in the
cockpit back to the rear of the car.
Virtually from the rear axle, he steered
the still blazing car past the pits to a
spot where fire apparatus was avail
able and the blaze could be controlled.
Severely burned, Batten quit his car
only when it could no longer do
damage to others.
For this. Batten was presented with
the "sportsmanship award" which
goes annually to the indianapolis par
ticipant who puts the welfare and
safety of others before himself.
Yes, accidents happen to the great
est of drivers. I'm thinking now of
Tazio Nuvolari, the remarkable Italian
star. who is expected to shine in
Mondays race at Roosevelt Race
way. Nuvolari is probably the greatest
driver Europe has ever turned out -
essentially a road race driver. rather
than a speedway pilot. At Indian
apolis. we might be able to handle
Nuvolari. At Roosevelt Raceway -
I'm waiting to see.
In practice for one of Europe's road
racing classics earlier this year, one Of
Nuvolari's front tires burst as he
whirled down straightaway at $50
miles an hour. Nuvolari shot through
the air and landed on marshy ground
fifty or sixty yards away, Miracu-
lously. he was not killed. They took
him to the hospital and told him he
would be there for at least a week.
But within a day he was out, picked
another car and competed a week
later in the race.
In another road racing event in
Italy. Nuvolari rounded a sharp turn
on a public square in Florence. 1t was
raining and the result was a skid, a
crash and a broken thigh. This time
the doctors said he'd be on the shelf
for six months. But not more than a
month later, Nuvolari was lifted into
a racing car with his leg in plaster
cast and went about his job of racing.
It's little wonder that the Italians
call Nuvolari the ''man who has
contract with the devil"
How does it seem to drive a racing
car 125 miles an hour? Well. I've been
behind the wheel for long time now.
My first Indianapolis victory came in
1928 when I was little better than a
green hand. and I've raced many a
mile since then.
But the thrill of great speed so close
to the ground has never lost its
fascination. There is nothing like it
in the world. In traffic, though, I'm a
slow and careful driver. Mrs. Meyer
does most of our cross-country driv-
ing when we're together.
. It's a splendid thing to see road
racing coming back to favor in the
United States. Perhaps our European
rivals. more experienced in this type
of competition. will have slight edge
for a year or two. But I'm betting
that our American drivers will show
many rear tire to the invaders.
Certainly we're going to race to win.
with a heavy foot on the throttle and,
as ever. it will be ITO hell with

The soldier kept turning the pump
and running out gallons of gaso-

which needed only teaspoonful,
but he never did get it full, and
went off cursing, drenched with

Nagle had miraculous news. He
told us the commander of the

We picked our way through the

with groups Of Moors around them
cooking their suppers of tomatoes,
onions and rice. The Legion had
other fires blazing and the dark

filth and wreckage Of the romance
of war creeping out Of hiding. The
Moors crooned Arab songs and the
Legionnaires sang their weird
