WAR AND AGRICULTURE

Much Is heard of current high
prices of agricultural products.
What people often overlook is the
fact that war has also brought the
farmer many a tough problem.
The price of everything he must
buy is substantially higher now
than in pre-war days. His taxes,
like everyone else's, are at record
highs. Shortages and priorities make
1t difficult and sometimes impossible
for him to obtain new equipment
and maintenance materials.
Most serious of all. the agricul-
tural labor situation is actually des-
perate in many localities. The best
men have gone to work in war in
dustry, attracted by big wages. The
draft has taken many who would
normally work on farms. Even
when labor is available, the price
demanded is beyond the average
farmers power to pay.
So all isn't milk and honey down
on the farm. The farmer and his or
carnations, such as marketing CO.
operatives, have q mighty big and
difficult job on their hands.

In recent talk, DR.. Paul H. Ny
strom, head of the Limited Price
Variety Stores Association, observed
that winning the peace and pre-
servation of the system of free en-
terprise are as vital as winning the
war. "At least thirty organizations"
he said, Are currently shaping
plans to remake the country after
the war. Maybe improvements can
be made, but business should par
ticipate in the remaking. There are
100000 youngsters in this coun-
try and we must preserve for them
the same rights and privileges that
we have. That Is a part of winning
the peace.

it has held extensive hearings and
examined many witnesses. The
Committee skipped such big issues
as synthetic rubber production,
scarcity Of rubber, etc., and laid
down useful formulas for the use
OF tire dealers, and rebuilders, tell
ing them how to maintain 20 mil

FARM SAFETY HELPS WIN WAR

The Department of Agriculture is
urging all farm action groups to
strive for drop in the farm acct
dent rate, since one day lost on the
farm production line is that much
comfort to the enemy. Field repre-
sentatives have been directed to
work with all farmer organizations
in combating carlessness. More acct
dents happen to farm people than
to any other class of workers, de-
partment studies show, and, in war
time, accident rates usually rise
sharply.
The tractor is the worst offender
ON the farm. Careless use of the
tractor and other farm machinery
causes 20 out of every 100 farm ac-
cidents. Cranking motors while the
tractor is in gear, using weak cab
les that whip back when they snap,
hitching the load to the tractor
drawn bar instead of the axle SO
that the machine rears up and over,
are all common mistakes.
A few safety-first don'ts are:
Don't step in front of machine
pulled by horses, no matter how
gentle the animals.
Don't try to make adjustments to
a power-driven mower or binder
without first throwing out the
clutch.
Don't overwork during rush seas
ons. for fatigue breeds accidents.
Don't reach your hand in among
moving parasite take clogged hay
from the mower blades, for example,
or to loosen Q choked shredder.

HOUSE REFUSES TO ABOLISH
THE WPA

The House refused, by tellers'
vote of 100 to so, to abolish the
WPA.
The vote came on motion by
Representative Pearson (Democrat)
of Tennessee to strike out the en-
acting clause of an appropriations
bill carrying funds for the WPA
for the fiscal year beginning next
month.
Earlier the House refused by a
four-vote margin to cut the pro-
posed WPA fund in half.

A LONE VOLUNTEER
BY ]. e. Jones

Washington, June 15--The United
States Senate has singled out a lead
ing American industrialist and paid
tribute to his foresight, courage and
perseverance in waging a single
handed fight to bring about an in
crease in the production of a metal
vital to this country's expanding
war needs.
r. S. Reynolds, head of the far
flung Reynolds Metals Company
properties, has been called true
patriot by Senators Harry s. Tru-
man of Missouri and Lister Hill of
Alabama, for the part he has play
ed in expanding facilities for the
production of aluminium in the
United States. Two years ago Mr..
Reynolds was rebuffed when he de-
cried the complacency of govern
ment officials and industrial leaders
who claimed that our country had
all of the aluminium needed to meet
current and future demands.
A man of action, Mr.. Reynolds
mortgaged his existing plants to the
hilt, and lacking actual orders or
subsidies, began the construction of
aluminium reduction plants in Ala
bama and Washington. These plants
now are running day and night at
top speed and adding substantially
to the nations supply of this essen
tial raw material.
In less than two years the Rey-
nolds organization has changed over
from a mere user of aluminium to a
producer of the virgin metal and a
fabricator of parts for fighting plan
es as we'll. The company operates
mines where bauxite is dug, plants
where the bauxite is reduced to
alumina and the alumina to alumni
mum, and mills where the alumni
mum is rolled, drawn and pressed
into sheets and shapes.
The Senatorial tribute paid r. s..
Reynolds is significant in view Of
widespread rumors and charges of
retardment in the development and
production of many raw materials
now SO scarce. AS Senator Hill told
his colleagues, grateful nation
should long remember this lone
aluminium volunteer.

Railroads Versus Pipe Lines

Thus far the American railroads
have kept themselves out of the
clutches of their Uncle Samuel. Sug-
gestions keep bobbing up that there
should be ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
pool of railroad rolling stock. And
maybe there will be! But the his
tory of World War I still stands as
a terrible warning not to try that
scheme again. 1t put the American
railroads on the toboggan. j. M.
Symes, Vice President of the Penn
sylvania Railroad, asserts that the
adoption of such a plan, under
existing conditions would be blum
DER. He believes the path of true
progress lies not in changing over
to a system of car pooling" that has
already proved failure, "but rather
in making the present system work,
as experience permits the further
perfeeting of its details.
The railroads have made such
fine record in hauling the oil to the
Eastern seaboard that they have
aroused doubts in the minds of
some of our Government officials as
to whether that great pipe line from
oil field to the Eastern seaboard is
a necessity. It's dollars to dough-
nuts that the pipe line will not be
built if the railroads are powerful
enough to prevent it. And the lines
are not to be blamed for looking out
for themselves at time when they
are playing in luck.
Incidentally, the real pipe line
was side-tracked recently when Con-
gress gave time to discussing the So
called Florida Canal, and the cross
country pipe line to the Gulf of
Mexico, and the inland water route
of the Eastern coast of the United
States.
Gas Rationing
The probabilities are that gas ra-
tioning will continue in the East,
and it may be that it will be ex-
tended to all of the United States.
in view of the fact that some of the
highest officials in the Government
who have authority over "all-out"
gas rationing are giving encourage
ment to moves in the direction of
National rationing. They agree that
general rationing would save the
rubber, and ease transportation
matters.
Nevertheless, all the authorities
agree that there is plenty of gaso-
line for everybody.

It is not going to be an easy iOb
to shake Maxwell aloose, however.
There Is that agreement which Fred

Maxwell support to Broughton.
(MaXWells approval of his bargain
was made While he was lying in bed

MaXWellS defense that his assistant,
Bill Spain, handled all personnel
matters and that one of those in5i-
Gated, Bob Ward, was kept on the
State payroll despite his objection.
Then finally there IS MaXWells plan
of a three-man commission which
