EDGEWATER PARK, Miss, Feb
12.-One of New York States biggest
farmers, joining in discussions with
Dixie agriculturists, said today,
There are no Southern farm prob
lems-they are national problems. :"
1T is to the interest of every
section and to the country as a
whole that the cotton farmer should
prosper" said Carl G. Wooster of
Union Hall, N. Y, assistant director
of the Northeast division of the
A. A. A. He is attending the A. A.
AS Southern Regional Conference
Even for nothing more than our
selfish interests" he said, I'VE in the
East should like to see cotton
growers making money. If they
don't, they'll go out of cotton and
grow the things we grow.
And it's certainly a national and
not a sectional problem when we
are engaged in great war and a
large proportion of our manpower
must be rejected because of defects
caused by improper diet"

DEAF DIARY

We Americans can win this war.
We can win it by making weapons
asst enough to turn the tide against
the Axis. And we are makinkg them
faster and faster every day. for more
ard more plants are being changed
TO war work.
. In many communities all the fac
tories in the town have pooled their
machines to manufacture weapons.
They're small plants-too small to
handle a war contract alone. But
they can handle parts of contracts.
and if they all work together they
ELL work together they can do the
job. Today they are working togeth-
er on an increasing scale. The whole
community is rallying around and
everybody is cooperating to lick our
enemies.
To lick them quickly we must
keep on cooperating. Production of
weapons isn't just job that hap
pens inside single factory. In many
ways 1t depends on all of us-on
the men who work in the plant and
on the understanding they and the
rest of us have of the enormous pro-
auction difficulties that industry is
overcoming, Realizing that. one com
pany called the people Of the town
together and told them the diary of
it's war plant. It told them how the
plant was being changed from peace
to war work, how employees were
being trained for new Jobs, 1t even
conducted tours through certain
parts of the plant so that the people
of the town could see for themselves
how fast the work was going.
For the work is going fast, not
only in that plant, but in factories
all over the country. In many cases
censorship prevents us from learn
ing just how rapidly plants are turn
ing out weapons. But this much we
do know; they are picking up speed.
They're busy writing their own war
production diaries, busy making the
weapons that will win this war.
