FARMERS ASKED TO SELL
SCRAP METAL FOR DE-
TENSE PRODUCTION

There is need in the defense pro-
gram for all the old iron and steel
that may be lying around ON Mary
land farms, according to informa-
ton received by DIR. T. B. Symons,
director of the University of Mary
land extension service He has writ
ten to county agents in all counties
of the State and asked them to do
all they can to encourage farmers
to sell their scrap iron now, and to
help in starting the flow of scrap
metal from farms.
DR.. Symons quotes the Secretary
of Agriculture to the effect that 1.-THE
national defense program is serious
ly threatened by actual and impend-
ing shortages of iron and scrap
steel". In addition, the Secretary
states. civilian shortages of steel in
Guiding metal for farm implements
and parts needed by farmers will be
more severe if steel mills cannot be
kept running at capacity.
A drive to increase the flow of
scrap metal from cities is already
underway by the Office of Produc-
ton Management, it is stated.
Farms have long been one of the
most important sources of scrap
metal, it is pointed out. The ap-
proach of winter and the possibility
of difficulty in transportation later
on make it important to move as
much scrap iron as possible now, in
order that it may be put into SER
vice, rather than rusting in junk
piles.
The financial return to farmers
for their old metal cannot be ex-
pected to be large, it is stated, but
the results will be important to
farmers and to the whole defense
effort.
In addition to extension service
workers throughout the several
counties of the State, all U s. De-
partment of Agriculture agencies
represented on the State and county
defense boards are expected to give
farmers all possible assistance and
information, including estimates of
prevailing prices for scrap in their
locality.

THE WRITING ON THE WALL

The San Francisco News, news
paper which has always been a
strong supporter of organized labor,
recently said this: I'VE wish to see
organized labor endure and continue
to grow. But we know that organ
lied labor cannot endure If the
thing from which it derives it's pros
perity and security do not endure.
If organized labor is to endure, the
system of free enterprise must en-
dure. Organized labor cannot -four
ish If business sickens and dies.
Economic peace and economic Sc
curity cannot be obtained by use of
force which makes their existence
impossible.
what happes to the labor move
ment, what happens to business and
industry, what happens to the thou
sands and thousands of small wage
earners who have no interest in the
politics of the labor movement, will
depend ON whether labor leadership
becomes statesmanlike, whether it
recognizes and assumes it's proper
responsibilities, whether it yields its
power with wisdom, or with reck-
lessness and stupidity.
Organized labor, for its own sell
fish reasons alone, should take the
lead in preventing strikes in this
time of emergency and danger, and
should, like industry, submit its
grievances to arbitration.
The racketeers in the labor move
ment will destroy all gains made by
labor. And the working man, not
the fat-salaried labor leaders, will
do the paying. Cannot labor see the
writing on the wall?

DEFENSE PROGRAM FOR THE
CHILDREN OF THE U. s.

At the request of the U. S. Child
ren's Bureau, DR.. ]. H. M. Knox, Jr.,
Chief of the Maryland Bureau of
Child Hygiene, directs attention to
cooperative measures which all
children of this country may be as
sured.
In connection with the Presidents
proclamation setting aside Novem
Der 11-16, as Civilian Defense Week,
Friday, November IA, was desig-
mated as Health and Welfare Day.
Adequate provisions for safety
and health for every child, lead the
list of detectives in the defense pro-
gram for children. Emphasis is laid
on the Importance of advance plan
ming to assure safety in case of grave
emergency; and on the continuation
and extension of the health services
now available for mothers and child
rem, including maternity care, con-
tinuous health supervision of all
children; medical, surgical and dem
tai care of children and young peo-
pie beyond school age.
Measures that will keep children
we'll and strong physically, with par
ticular reference to their nutritional
needs, come next on the list, with
special reference to the education
of parents and children in the selec-
ton and preparation of foods; ex-
tension of school lunch services; ex-
tension of the food stamp plan for
low-income families; and utilization
of advisory services of nutritionists
in health and welfare agencies.
Security in home life comes next
among the detectives, including pro-
vision for proper housing, care of
dependent children; aid to mothers
and responsible care and supervision
of children whose mothers are en-
ployed; social services through coun-
ty or local agencies to help conserve
home life and make good school and
community relationships possible
for children with special needs and
'handicaps.
Recognition of the need for main
tanning and extending all possible
safeguards against the employment
of children in hazardous occupations
in industry and agriculture is urged
as further objective; and particu-
lar emphasis is laid on the import
ance Of character building and the
training of children for citizenship
through the continuation and extern
sion Of educational and other SER
vices, to learn to accept responsible
ity, to understand the rich heritage
and purposes of our civilization, to
decelop high standards Of personal
integrity and intelligent loyalty to
democratic ideals and institutions.

FIRE--YOUR ENEMY

Fire destroys about $300,000,0O0
worth of property each year, on the
average. That destruction repre-
SCENTS complete, unqualified waste
The loss to the nation can be Illus
trated by a few examples.
That $30O,000,O00 would buy
5000 fighting planes costing $780,
900 each!
1t would buy 900 big bombers
costing 100000 each!
1t would buy enough rifles cost
ing $50 each for an army of 6O,OOO,-
900 men!
1t would buy 10000 aerial
bombs of great size costing $4,000
each!
1t would buy 2 battleships costing
$15O,000,000 each!
It would buy more than 20 de-
stroyers costing $4,00O,000 each!
1t would pay the wages of almost
$4,000 private soldiers for one
month, at the current rate of $21
eachi
That gives you an idea of what fire
destroys each year in this country.
And the $500, 100000 figure covers
only the direct, measurable waste.
According to authorities, the indi-
rect waste caused by fire is several
times as great. Loss of time, loss OF
taxes, loss of employment, loss OF
businese--these are indirect tolls
taken by fire, whose cost reaches a
terrific figure.
During the recent Fire Prevention
Week, the slogan National Defense
Through Fire Defense" was widely
publicized. That slogan involves nc
exaggeration. In these days, the
conservation of resources, labor and
time is vital to defense. Fire is the
enemy of that kind of conservation
And fire is the ever-present enemy
of American security and safety. II
must be licked!

The Army is gradually wedding
out incompetents among it's officers.
The way the wind blows was shown
when high-ranking general was
summarily retired after the army he
commanded did badly in war games.
Between World War and II, the
Army was given little attention,
little money, little equipment. OFF,
GERS advanced when and only when
their superiors died or reached re-
tirement age. This made for a bu-
reaucratic sort of officer who simply
bided his time, played internal poll
tics, and learned nothing.
In our Army, men with the right
stun ON the ball are today being
jumped over the heads of their eld-
ers.
General Marshall, the Chief of
STAFF, has little use for sterile ira
ditions. Under him is a group of
Lieutenant Generals who demand re-
suits. So many an officer is going in
voluntarily into retirement or to an
unimportant post because he doesn't
have the capacities which modern
war demands.

admit their inability to solve the
questions of price control and infla-
ton.
The indications that they have
had "a bear by the tail" in recent
weeks have pointed toward an "all-
out" fight between those who want a
bill that will cover all segments Of
the price structure, and those who
want to exempt agriculture and la
Dor and possibly other groups from
the terms of a measure which Con-
gress has been asked to enact.
Leon Henderson, Administrator of
Price Control, and other staunch adj
ministrationists, have inveighed
against ceilings on wages and agri-
cultural commodities. The difficult
political puzzle at the National Cap
ital is how to change the situation
and provide for ceilings on all prices
Secretary of Agriculture Wickard
recently expressed his opinion that
most well informed farmers who are
familiar with the subject favor a
price ceiling at 110% of parity,
which he says will take care of farm
ers pretty WE'LL. Mr.. Wickard be-
lieves that ut has taken us q long
time to sell the country on the idea
of equality for the farmers, and ad-
vises, Let's keep it SOL.
The new Agriculture Secretary is
making mark for himself In Wash
ington, and he doesn't hesitate to
bring the farm problems right down
to date. In his opinion the chief
worry Of farmers Is not farm prices
today, but farm prices tomorrow.
They want 70 Rrodace," he an.

KHEPNG AGRICULTURE GOING

Thousands of farmers, troubled
and undecided about the great prob
lens created by the war economy,
are turning for aid to their market
ing cOOperatives.
These organizations long ago
proved themselves important to
farm progress. Today they are prov
ing vital.
Problems of markets, problems of
taxation, problems of ever-higher
labor and material costs, problems
of priorities-these are some of the
grave issues the marketing co-ops
must meet. They can't be solved
overnight. The co-ops can't perform
miracles. But they are of immense
service to their members and to all
