rying rather small bomb loads, while
the heavy bombers, known as the fly
ing fortresses can easily reach all
parts of the reich with heavy bomb
loads. Hence the emphasis on the
four engined bombers.
Present production of medium
bombers is about 200 month, with
in motion, the figure will exceed 500
a month by the first of the year.
Present production of the heavy
bombers is between 25 and 80 a
month, with 100 month in sight by
the first of the year and 200 by early
spring, under plans which called for
a 200-month maximum program. The
500-a-month revised program for heavy
bomber production cannot be realized
until some time in 1912, unless new
drastic steps to increase production
get into motion at once
A new program is thus being
| brought out to greatly accelerate the
aircraft production picture. The auto
motive industry is expected to play
an important role in that program, but
exactly how big that role will be is a
matter subject to dispute. Experts
are now exploring to what extent the
automobile plants can be converted
for manufacture of airplane bodies
and parts, as well as for production
of tanks and other defense weapons

sence-and that Hitler does not wait
Regional Farm Conferences
One of the principal questions that
will be discussed at the forthcoming
regional farm conferences called by
that of shifting part of the acreage
now planted to wheat and cotton to
feed for livestock, in order to increase
production Of eggs, milk, and pork.
This years wheat crop is the largest
since 1919, adding to the wheat sur
plus, while the cotton crop, although
not bumper one, also will help swell
the cotton surplus.
First of four conferences that have |
been called will be held in Salt Lake |
City, Utah, on September Is, to be |
followed by conferences in Chicago, |
Memphis, and New York. The pro-
duction goals for next year are ex-
pected to be set at these conferences, |
and a program for reaching these
goals developed. Secretary Wickard |
has stated privately that he is not |
satisfied with what has been achieved |
thus far under the defense food pro-
duction program. The conferences
will be attended by the secretary and |
his advisers; the state heads of the
various farm organizations; the agri-
cultural defense boards; representa-
tives of the state agricultural plan
ming committees, and the regional of
ficers of the department of agricul-
ture.

Dear Mr.. Hearst:
8 ONE OF Americas great
"A newspaper publishers this let
ter Is written In hope you may be
able to shed somc light on a situa-
ton, which Is confusing and highly
puzzling to many Americans today.
1t Is regarding Russia.
What mysterious and highly in
huential element Is always on
hand at Washington to safeguard
the murderous Russian bear.
For years this element has
worked In behalf of the Russian
program OF Christ.
When some courageous soul
made the attempt to reveal the
Vaccinations of Russian commun-
ism. . smear campaign followed,
and character assassination was
visited upon the persons involved.
While all guns are trained on
Germany and Italy, the Russian
communistic program has been
soft pedaled.
The Russian program calls fer
the destruction of all democratic
governments and a substitution
therefor of a communistic rule.
In Chicago we have watched
and studied the development of
1Wommunism as fostered by Russian
agents.
We saw william z. Foster, one
of the orginators of the 1919 steel
strike. 20 TO Russia and return as
the chief Red apostle in America.
We saw formation of the Red
forces under the guise OF legiti-
mate trade unions, the spread of
ultra radicalNm in fields OF alien
minded people. who come to
America, as a haven from perse-
cution, to enjoy liberty purchased
with blood and sacrifice by our
forebears.
We saw legitimate labor Tester

Red agitatorS

Theirs was 4 program of de-

Russian orders seem to be:

prelude TO icedkening the
foundation Of our American
institutions"
Those associated with labor
matters saw some OF our liberal
friends bitten with the Russian
communistic program.
- These protested to see In this
GSiless teaching a vista of new
fr sedom and life for the masses
of workers.
Some OF them hied to Russia
for a first hand peep.
They came back disiIlusioned.
But still the Russian program
Of agitation goes on In this
country.
In the Spanish civil war the
anti-Christian program OF the
bloody and ruthless Russian bear
WAS In evidence on all sides.
Catholic prelates, priests and
nuns. whose only offense was in
service OF Almighty God, were
tortured and cruelty murdered.
Their churches and converts
and monasteries leveled.
We saw the communistic i'm
