prices to farmers for their prod
ucts to enable them to compete
in the labor market with war
factories. Some form of govern
ment subsidy might be neces-
sary to bring this about, he con-
coded.
Other members have indicat-
ed they favored drafting work
ers and assigning them TO fields
where they were urgently need
ed, with seNctive servic Off
Gals making the decisions. Still
others believe farm labor should
be deferred from military serv-
ice and required to remain on
the farms.
SUGGESTS DEPARTMENTS
During debate on the anti
initiation bill. Democratic Lead
er Mccormack of Massachusetts,
told the house yesterday the
farm labor problem might be
met by giving draft deferment
to essential farm workers or by
using on the farms some men
now in the army or in civilian
industry.
Wickard offered the commit
tee several suggestions but said
they constituted mo panacea"
for what is certain to be very
difficult situation" The sug-
gestions included expanded use
of women and children in farm
work, use of city people on
farms, and transportation of
workers from surplus labor
areas to areas where they were
needed.
Although bumper crops we're
produced in 1912 in spite of the
handicaps of a dwindling labor
supply, Wickard told the COM
mittee, "the future is much
darker we face 1913 with
the prospect of less machinery,
less farm labor, and probably
less favorable weather." with
the likelihood for the need for
greater food production.

WASHINGTON, Sept. "a
R)-Apparently convinced that
government officials intend to
do nothing about a farm labor
shortage. members of the house
agriculture committee today
were reported on the verge Of
drafting legislation to deal with
the problem.
Before taking any such ac-
ton, though, Chairman Fulmer
DDS. c., said the committee
would seek the opinion tomor-
row of Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Her.
shey, selective service director,
and possibly later that of Paul
v. McNutt, war manpower COM
mission head.
1T may be that General Her
shey will have some recon-
mendations," Fulmer said. AT
any rate, we want TO hear his
views and try TO get an idea of
the manpoWer needs for the
armed forces"
FEAR FOOD SHORTAGE
After hearing Secretary of
Agriculture Wickard warn that
failure to relieve the farm labor
shortage would make it neces-
sary "in the not too distant fu-
ture to deal with shortage of
food" Fulmer told reporters:
THE secretary offered us no
real solution to the problem
which he admitted was grave.
1t is beginning to look like gov
eminent officials will not do
anything about it until an &C
tual food shortage stares them
right in the face. 1t might be
too late then"
Rather than wait until then,
Fulmer added, committee mem
bers believe they should take
AN aggressive attitude" and
seek to solve the problem them
selves.
SUBSIDY POSSIBLE
What form any proposed legis-
lation would take was highly
uncertain. Fulmer himself has
advocated payment of higher

As the exercise proceeds these messages and incl dents will be progressively increased in number and extended in scope Activities during the warning and alert phases are designed to develop communications facilities and to familiarize command posts and par ticipants with the use of such facil- ities and with the procedure and action in the disposition of commu- nications.
 In order to avoid the possibility of confusion and error during the ex- ercise, the body of all messages transmitted are prefaced and termi- mated by the term Command Post Exercise-War Game"
 By varoius assumed situations the command post exercise will re- quire participants in the exercise to make decisions as if hostile ele- mentS were actually operating in New England, and based upon those decisions, to set plans into execu- tion and carry into operation effec- tive remedial measures to counter act them. Every effort will be made to make the war game as realistic as possible. Messages will deal with sensitive points such as source of supply and points of distribution of food, water supply, fuel supply communications including radio and transportation.
 Effective Defense
 Effective protection from hostile activities will depend to a consid- erable extent upon the cooperation of civilian organizations with the military authorities. The New Eng land public may expect to read oi the. theoretical blowing up of i'm port bridges, the seizure of radio stations or sabotage of large indus trial plants. These should not be interpreted by the public as being actions of real enemy, present ir person. The public should look fol the wording Command Post Exer- cise-War Game"
