soul as they burst into the fort. Every
shot tore at his faltering hopes. Min
ute after minute, hour after hour, the
havoc wore on, outlasting the night
AS the first pale CLEAN Of dawn
bleached the gloom, he strained for
ward to see the remnants of Fort Nc
Henry. And in that moment he eXper-
fenced one of the greatest inspira-
lions ever granted to human being
For above the fort the "star-spangled
banner" snapped in the damp breeze!
The defenders had held out! Baltimore
was saved
And on the deck of tiny vessel in
the harbor lone American jerked out
of his pocket an old envelope and
furiously wrote the BATTLEFRONT words
that have become Americas glorious
national anthem.
Thus Marylander gave the flag its
best -beloved title after a glimpse of
the Maryland emblem flying
over besieged Maryland fort, It is
still the "star-spangled banner" al
though its physical appearance has
changed.
Congress soon realized that it was
impractical to add a stripe as we'll as
a star for every State. Therefore, when
five more States came into the Union
the stripes were reduced to the origi-
nal thirteen and the stars now symbol
ize the growth.
Today the field bears AZ stars ar
ranged in six rows of eight each.
Maryland, the seventh State to ratify
the Constitution, is recognized by the
seventh star in the top row.

FARMERS RATION THEIR
WHEAT

During 1917 and 10 American
farmers were induced to pillow up the
plains to grow wheat for a pegged
price of $3.50 bushel as part of the
effort to win the war. In the present
world struggle the situation is very
different.
In the United States the carryover
of this grain from last year is the
largest on record-500 million bush
els, or approximately three fourths of
years supply-and the winter
wheat forecast indicates bigger crop
than last year or the ten-year aver
age. Meanwhile the Nation is hemmed
in by economic or war blockades and
Great Britain receives plentiful sup
plies from Canada, Australia, and
Argentina, so that export prospects
are limited.
Under these circumstances, farm
ers of the wheat-growing sections of
the United States have just voted by
IOui w OllCs ctCOOI UlllS W al
ment from the Department of Agri-
culture, to impose upon themselves
wheat marketing quota this year The
quota will be in no case less than the
1910 production of the farm if AAA
acreage allotments We're observed
then, but any marketings above the
quota will be subject to a penalty of
Is cents a bushel.
This is a measure of self-regulation
which American farmers could
scarcely have been persuaded to con-
slider ten years ago. Its adoption be-
speaks to that extent an education in
their own marketing problems. This
is wholesome so long as it aims only
at balancing of supply with what
the Nation will consume at a reason
able price. If it ever should develop
into device to force up the price of
bread by scarcity, public reaction
would be severe.
At present, as has been indicated,
the wheat supply appears plentiful,
and one effect of acreage restriction is
to build a reserve of soil fertility for
increased production if needed. R. M.
Evans, AAA administrator, expresses
the opinion that the marketing quota
will assure farmers this year of a
wheat price approximately equal to
the parity aimed at in farm legisla-
tion. Such a result would at least be
more defensible than the efforts by the
current Congress to accomplish a
"parity" return by large appropria-
tions from the Federal Treasury and
by Government '1oans" above the
market price of farm products.

HAWTHORNE DIDN'T
KNOW

When President Lincoln decided to
risk war to save the Union, the now
loved Nathaniel Hawthorne wrote: 81
don't quite understand what we are
fighting for, or what definite results
can be expected" Those Americans
who today are fully aware of the
definite results" may we'll wonder
at Hawthorne's remark.
But some Americans now are as
vague about the reasons for American
opposition to the Naziism as was
Hawthorne on the issue that underlay
the War Between the States. Those
who are convinced that they know
why the United States must help to
beat Naziism, and who are aware of
the alternative to resistance against
the ''new ORDER" may wish to think
of Hawthorne when inclined to be in
tolerant of doubters.
Even a man of Hawthorne's intel
lectual power found it hard to see
through the mists of 1861 In 1871 the
mist goes up from practically the
whole face of the earth. Today's issue,
however, is no less definite. The long
run consequences of decision or in
decision may be no less important to
the United States.
