CROP INSURANCE

Spring comes. There is moisture in
the soil. The warming sun brings Q
cast of green to meadows and fields Of
winter grain. The farmer pIows. discs
and harrows the soil, then plants his
seed. All of this represents a substant-
ial investment in labor and actual
cash.
Then the rainfall he hopefully OK
pected fails to arrive. Day after day
a blistering sun withers the growing
crops. A scorching wind from the
south turns fields once green and
promising to dismal brown. And the
farmer stands in his doorway, helpless
ly watching seasons work disappear.
We sympathize, with farmers at
times like that. But we have always
said: "Well, too bed. there Is nothing
we can do about weather"
Then comes another season. Beauti-
full, thrifty fields make us feel good
in fact we have bumper crop. And
day by day during that good crop year
markets fall. The farmer has an album
dance, but he cannot get his cost of
production.
Good crops and bad crops alike spell
disaster. Only the average crop prornis-
es q good return to the tiller o. the
soil. And ~ recent years, it seems,
We go from one extreme to anothr;
ane as the pendulum of production
ind high and low markets swInys back

will be done about all this. Crop In

OPPOSITION JUST PERSONAL

OPPOSITION JUST PERSONAL
How personal differences hamper
community progress.
Personal dislikes motivated by jeal-
ousy or envy. grndges prompted by a
spirit Of revenge. personal luminosity
created by snap or intoleFant Judg-
ment--these are uorces that stand in
the way Of cooperation, of united ei-
/ fort, of spirit OF achievement.
A good idea is advanced BY one citi-
zen.s Another who dislikes him opposes
the plan or lends it but little support
without giving moments considera-
ton to the merit of the plan. A pro-
gram is launched. Men who do not en-
Joy unanimous popularity are placed
upon committee jobs. Others refuse to
extend their assistance.
What we urge, therefore, as first
step in the direction of community
progress is more neighborliness, more
federation. less envy and less personal
animosity. Have you ever paused to
realize that you too make mistakes but
should not be eternally blamed as q
result.
In this connection we like to quote
q statement attributed to Dr.. Johnson !:
"Hir,'' said the famous man Of letters
"Even God does not propose to judge
man until the end OF his days"

gram wins approval. If this operates
with success then the program will be
extended.
While 1t is early to say how this
program will operate. we welcome the
experiment. Too long have we extend
ed our sympathy to our farmer friends
in times of distress to forces beyond
the control of man.
Crop insurance, az we understand
it, is essentially plan Of storing the
abundance Of fat years for the benefit
of lean years.

Post-Press Sports Editor

Since this column has been de-
voted to the exposure of Imperial
Valleys most modest sports parti-
cipants of late, it is therefore fitting
and proper that We should dedicate
todays space TO the king of them
all Floyd Valentine slick" Ackley,
pistol shoot champ.
Ackley, who according 10 his own
version. has been sluffing off in
recent matches Ito sort Of dis
tribute the medals among the 9TH
er boys" has elevated himself to
the position of Firearms Instruc-
tor.
Bill Heating. hckley's closest
competitor in the art of pistol
shooting. has threatened TO go ON
a sit-down strike unless he is award
ed some sort of a title.
Slick, however. was quoted as
saying that Heating will have to
prove his mettle before he can be
elevated to a position. but he agreed
to take Heating into his class and
show him some of the tricks of the
trade.
Gettins Ackley to tell Of his eX-
perienceS on the most famous plS-
tol ranges throughout the nation is
very difficult job, but the Bench
Warmer had only to mention that
he would print the story, and Ack-
ley opened up with a barrage OF
feats that had even this column
ist backstepping.
1T was in the international
matches that I had the most
trouble" Slick began. I'VE, the de-
Tending champion and l, were tied
up at the end of the three weeks
competition with perfect scores
and were slated to shoot off the tie
in a special shoot.
IT insisted that have q new
target for every shot in the 25-
yard event for I always hit the tar
get squarely in the center and lett
only one hole after taking ten
shots. AS a result my opponents al
ways tried to claim that I had
missed the target nine times.
well we tied at the 25-yard and
50-yard events and decided to
keep moving the target back until
one Of us won.
The defending champ finally
slipped one out of the bulls eye .at
$50 yards and I was declared the
winner"
Here Ackley stopped long enough
to tell the chief about his new pis-
tol shoot class and then resumed
the story.
We'll, they wanted to see how
long I could keep hitting the tar
get. And, believe it or not, l kept
plunking them into the center un-
til the target had been moved out
of the guns range.
For three years I was barred
from tournaments throughout the
nation" Slick continued, "on ac-
count of all contestants withdrew
as soon as they found out l was
entered.
so in Sundays shoot at the I'm
migration range, my score will be
just good enough TO win
AS the modest E. C. P D. officer
strolled out of the room. Curt Keat-
ing filled in the thought that was
running through the Bench Warm
