one-third of them Germans and
the rest Italians, were reported

A large force of Axis troops

Serious Food
Shortage Seen
Bureaucracy
is Farm forget

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4 Up
A disastrous shortage Of
food" was forecast for the Unit
ed States yesterday by heads of
three major farm organizations
unless government agencies i'm
mediately abandon "misdirected
efforts to fasten far-reaching bu-
reaucratic controls and restric-
tons" on farmers and farm
workers.
In a Joint statement, Albert S.
Goss, master of the National
Grange, Edward A. O'Neal,
president of the American Farm
Bureau Federation, and Ezra T.
Benson, executive secretary of
the National Council of Farmer
Co0peratives, declared:
"Under the guise of the war
effort a social revolution is be-
ing perpetrated upon the Amer
lean people"
The farm leaders declared
that the drain of manpower from
farms was due to refusal of
this administration to deal eff
fectively with industrial wages.
Surveys show that twice
as many farm workers have
been lured into industry by fab
uous wages as have joined the
armed forces"
Their statement recommend
ed:
That all branches of govern
ment recognize and treat agri-
culture as an essential war in
dustry; that Selective Service
instruct local boards to defer es-
sential farm workers and opera
toy. until replacements are
..ound, as long as they remain in
farm work; that farm price CELL
ings be adjusted to carry out the
intent of the Price Control Act
of last month. Providing allow
ancc for increased costs and
farm labor; that "all bureau
cratic, unavoidable regulations
and controls" including fixing
of minimum wages are regulat-
ing maximum hours and con-
ditions of employment of farm
workers, be eliminated"

that nearly all small hotels in

Kelly said last nights raids
were "a most important step for
ward for police work as far as
the handling of prostitution in
the district is concerned"
Not only have we cracked
down on known prostitutes and
their fellow travellers, but we
have been able to warn the re-
r1ainder of those moral parasites
that we intend to subject them
TO all-out warfare" he said.
