 Stimulate Business
 MT. Policy, in presenting these ex- hibits to the Senate Committee, pointed out that increased revenues and a return of normal traffic would bring about a resumption of railroad buying ill large volume which, in turn, would stimplate in- 0ustrial activity throughout the na- tion and the unemployment of thou sands of workers. To build one freight car, he said, requires ma- terials from 31 different states and provides 1887 man-hours of en- ployment-approXimately a years work for one man. To build one locomotive, he added, provides 50 men with full time work for one year, and requires materials drawn from more than 30 states.

 SHELTER BELT
WPA Puts Force of 100 to Work Planting Na=
 tive Trees
BY JACK TURNER

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Turkey, Tex Feb. 8.-(UP)- Work has started on the Turkey shelter belt, part of the Federal government's 1888 fight against wind erosion in the Texas Pan- handle.
 Contracts have been signed with farmers for the planting of 100000 trees in this area. Last season 55 miles of trees were planted with a record of only a 5 per cent loss.
 The effectiveness of the tree planting program, which many said would fail, has been shown ln the size of the trees and the de- creasing number and intensity of dust storms. Many of the trees planted last year reached height of 8 to 10 feet the first year.
 One hundred WPA workers were put to work in this area planting the trees. Farmers on whose farms the trees were planted reported that black locust, cottonwoods, Chinese elms, apricots and native trees thrived best ill the shelter belt experiments.
 Trees Hold Moisture
 The trees not only prevent the wind from sweeping unchecked across the plains areas, but 1n- crease the moisture content of the soil.
 Snow held on the ground where it falls means more moisture for crop and grass growth in the spring. If the snow is swept into gullies and ditches by winds, the moisture is lost to the fields.
 Lack of moisture from winter Snows sometimes leaves grass lands barely covered with vegetation and cultivated fields not only barren but smooth and glazed so that the next high wind may start blowing the valuable top soil in great clouds during dust storm to Sift through tightly closed windows in homes thousands of miles away.
 Wind Barriers Cost Less
 West Texas farmers are following the governments example by build ing less expensive wind barriers. Pastures and fields are spotted with contour furrows, diversion struc- lures, terraces, grain stubble and strips of vegetation.
 Such structures or Instructions break the force of the wind and cause the snow to pile in small drifts.
 Grain stubble and vegetation strips also serve as protection against soil blowing in areas where wind erosion is a serious problem. Farmers also find these strips of vegetation boon to wildlife. The vegetation provides food and cover fcY game birds and animals during the winter months.

was voted to move the other officers up one position and elect a treas urer only. The present staff of off, cers follows: President, Mary Clare O'Neill; vice president, Frances Riley; recording secretary, Jane McGowan; financial secretary, Fer nande Lemay; treasurer, Helen Barry.
 The food sale at Byrnes' drug store Saturday was a success. The ways and means committee reported the results of their meeting several days prior to the regular meeting. A committee was appointed to take charge of refreshments for the March meeting.
 At the meeting of the junior branch, it was decided to hold a food sale Thursday, February IT.. The dancing classes for high school and grammar school children, which the members of this division have been running, have been very successful. These classes are held Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons and Monday evenings.
 The badminton class sponsored by the adult education and recreation program will be omitted this eve ming owing to the gymnasium being used by the Watertown Teachers as sociation for the presentation of "The Late Christopher Bean." Final rehearsals have been held for the play which will start promptly at 8:15. The doors. will be closed at SIS and not opened again until the first act is over.
 The cast of the play follows: Irene Bussemey, William Murphy, Helen Anderson, Francis Hayes, Isabelle Rowell, Ruth Lundahl, Patrick Fontain,e Sumner Libbey, Wallace Bartlett. Mrs. w. B. Pickard coaches the cast.

he did, he was obliged to lead a
