WINS STATE MEDALS

WINS STATE MEDALS
Soil building brought him state
medals later for success in increas-
ing crop-yields and hog production.
1t also got him a request from the
State Farm Bureau organization to
get busy and organize a unit in his
community. There wasn't any farm
organization In his county then. He
was supposed to 60 to the county
seat and learn how to do II but he
was too busy with his chores to get
away so he just called a meeting in
the schoolhouse and told his neigh
oors what he thought ought to be
done.
Il guess I sort of overstated what
we could do" he said to me as he
repeated the anecdote, "some of the
fellows asked me afterward where
all the reforms talked about went
to- He smiled that wide smile of
his. Some Of these ideas worked
out. And the Master Farmer, in
1882. was chosen by the three rural
counties that were his district to 20
to the state senate. The next year
he was chosen Indiana delegate to
the National Corn Hog conference
at Des Moines. All this time the
farm was his chief preoccupation,
was then as Il still is, his only
source Of income besides his salary.
OFFERED POSITION
The conference had hardly start
ed when A. G. Black, whose room
was on the same door Of the hotel an
Wickard's, buttonholed him. Black
was then head Of the Corn Hog sec
ton OF the Triple A. He wanted an
assistant and he wanted Wickard for
the Job and wanted him right away.
It seemed pretty important Of
fer, but II also seemed impossible.
You can't lock up q farm like q city
fiat and walk of with the key In
your pocket. But Black was per-
sistent and after q mental and phys
ical struggle. the Master Farmer
mastered the situation, and with
many q backward look set of for
Washington.
He managed to keep in pretty
close touch with Carol County while
he was Corn Hog boss, but now it's
harder because secretary Of agri-
culture Is kept very busy.
And right now Secretary Wickard
wants to see more hogs-all over
the country-than there are. He's
worried about the pig crop report
we've heard 80 much about lately
and the last word he had to say
TO me, while secretary was pull
Ing his sleeve for his next appoint
ment, was on this subject:
People don't understand what
I'm after" he said as I rose to 70,
when say the farmers ought to
hold back some of their breed sows
and gifts now because pork is going
to be higher later on. had quite a
time with three cabinet ladies'. (He
chuckled.) They thought all l was
worrying about was the price of
pork chops. What we want to do il
to try to take the peaks and valleys
out Of farm prices and IL the farm
ers save some OF their hogs for
breeding now, they'll get more mon
ey for them later and 1t will tend to
keep the price level stabilized"
That's Wickard all over-the prac-
teal farmer who has learned to
think

many other bodies of troops. The
Anzacs do not salute the officers of

the officers of any other, including
the British. Colonies are likely to
be called by their first names even
when addressed by privates; cap
tains and sergeants mingle with the
utmost freedom. All troops eat at
the same table and wear the same
uniform, the only difference being
insignia of rank.
But any World war veteran will
tell you that the Anzacs are one of
the fightin'est bunch Of men ever to

For 20 days they had to stand out
side the gates of Bardia, waiting
the word to attack, and growing
more impatient by the hour. When
the signal came the city fell in less
than 40 hours.

ENGLISH FARMERS
WORK UNDER FIRE

II farm In Wiltshire myself" said
Anthony Hurd, a British farmer,
telling about conditions in England
while the bombs were dropping,
800 acres, and we average As BUSH
els Of wheat to the acre. In the IA
years I've been farming there has
never been an easier harvest"
Farming has been revolution
lied In England. In the first place,
like 1t or not, class feeling separat-
ed England into groups. The farm
ers (not the gentry" we're a proud
folk, but still not of the upper
classesO have taken a new role in
English life. They we're given a
big job, the outworking Of that Job In
going to help kill the class system.
Listen to my Wiltshire friend again:
1--WE were asked particularly TO
get another 1000, 900 acres under the
pillow in the United Kingdom and
convert that amount Of permanent
grassland into crops of wheat, oats,
barley, potatoes and so on, which
yield much more food per acre.
That has been done. We have pro-
duced q big extra tonnage of ce-
reals, particularly oats and barley
possibly as much as zoo, 900 tons
extra-more potatoes than usual.
and more roots and fodder crops
for dairy cows and other live stock"

Mussolini could have silenced the
bad news, since all the Italian press
Is controlled by him. But even be-
fore British broadcasters could tell
OF their troops successes, Italian an
nouncers were breaking the news to
their own people, and no effort was
made to deny the loss was serious.
In fact, for days Italian minds had
been conditioned" to expect the
loss. There is belief in some excel
lent quarters that $4,000 Italian
troops in Bardia, cut off from re-
treat and with little food and water,
were ordered to hold out at the sac
rifice OF their lives while this radio
propaganda could be carried out at
home.

New Haven, Conn, March 26- (UP)--Howard s. Palmer, president of the New Haven Railroad System, declared in his annual report today that the Interstate Commerce Con- missions plan for reorganization of the railroad was unfair and in- equitable to the present stockhold- CTS"
 Adopted over the opposition of the roads directors, Palmer said, the commissions plan prevents parti- cipation by the present stockholders in any future prosperity of the pro- perty" and the directors purpose to continue to take all possible steps to prevent the wiping out of the in- terest of the present stockholders" !"
 He said directors intend to submit to the court "that the commission has failed to give effect to three im- portant factors bearing on the value of the equity of present stockhold- CTS" These factors, he said, were:
 The company's perpetual lease- hold rights in the Grand Central terminal and its perpetual easement over the New York 6 Harlem Rail- road.

company's recuperative powers as demonstrated by its past earnings record.
 The effect of the cancellation as provided in its plan, of claims of the Old Colony and Boston & Prov idence Railroad. 4
 The U. s District Court certified the ICC,s plan Feb. 27 and set April 2 as @ headline for the filing of ob- jections.
 Expenses attending the reorgani. ration up to Dec. 31, 1940 amounted to $2,200,000, and Palmer observed that Incidence of these claims ano their amount affords Q distressing picture of some of the costs of pro. tracted reorganization proceedings.
 The annual report showed 194 deficit of $2003,000 after all ike. charges and depreciation charges O ] $3 1928 ,0O0. The deficit, he said, wa an improvement of $911 900 com. pared with 1889. The accumulated deficit amounted to $110,160,721.
 The roads gross revenues oi $85 5,604,000 were the highest since 1881. Total operating expenses a. mounted to $62, 2,199,2 ,236, or an in' crease of $740,076 in comparison with 1889.
 Commenting on new equipment and the railroads improved condi. ton, Palmer declared "it is gratify. ing to be able to state that the Nev Haven Railroad is in shape to meet any and all demands which may re- suit from the National Defense Pro- gram"

Army Finds Other Flying Jobs Youths Who Faas Pilots

into us during our training. But V are sure that we've got somethin- to give to those new jobs, and wen mighty glad to be back In uniform, and in sight of commissions again. WASHED OUT'-
 BUT NOT WASHED UP
 Cadet Harry Schreiber, whom : saw just before he took of with [ squadron of Flying Fortresses, said that he had been washed out of Randolph Field as c dangerous pilot" It seems that he was over confident or something, because he just couldn't remember to observe all of the rules and precautions for primary t-ainees.
 That was in December, 1886 which seems to have been an espe' cially unlucky season for cadets because Schreiber said only Al IF a. class of 300 ever got commissions He went back to his home in Gal weston and then took to cotton dust ing. In winged crates which werenS even licensed, he'd go skimming oved the fields and strafing the boil wee vils with clouds of poison dust. Ht and friend also flew around Texas in an ancient biplar1e which, being unlicensed, couldn't even be takeI into regulsr air ports.
 Schreiber found time to finish hii interrupted engineering course ai Texas A. & M. When the defense emergency loomed, he regarded N wistfully for awhile, then wrote sug- gesting that maybe he could b given another chance.
 The reply was that there hae been no relaxing of standards fo army pilots. But-would he care ta 20 to Pan-American's navigation school, from which he might be sen for training and commission wit some bombardment or reconnianc' group?
 So Cadet Schreiber, and man1 more like him who were washed out, are getting @ chance to prove that they're not washed up.
