At the time the Mars made her

in other countries?
While the American press under
pressure from heavy advertisers was
busily engaged in misunderstanding"
and ridiculing information which
might have a damaging effect on the
profit system (our way of life). The
/. G. Farbenindustrie was actively en-
couraging German technical research
and speeding the manufacture and i'm
provement of 'ersatz" products, syn
thetic rubber, leather, plastics, motor
fuel, etc, with the result that to the
natural resources secured by Adoiph
in his acquisition of Austria and
Czechoslovakia was added the valua-
BILE assurance that there would be an
abundant supply of "ersatz" or sub
stitute products, without which it
would be practically impossible for

full war
Russia, despairing of cooperation
from capitalist England and France,
and realizing that the Soviets might
have to bear the brunt of the fighting
alone, signed 'non-aggression pact"
a shrewd piece of diplomacy which
gave Russia almost two years addi-
tional time for preparation against
the German onslaught.
Great Britain and France, no longer
able to resist the increasing pressure
from their labor groups, declared war
not so much in an endeavor to check
Hitler's progress as to pacify these in
ternal discussions, as the desultory
nature of the preliminary fighting in
dictates.

INCREASED farm
PRODUCTION
Demanded

Wholehearted cooperation of Mon
tana's ranchers and farmers will be
necessary If the state carries its share
of the huge 1943 war food production
job, the Montana U. S. d. A. War
Board reports, following a breakdown
of the state goals into tentative coun-
ty production assignments.
Montana's share of the huge food
production needed for the war effort,
like that of other states, was based
on the states production facilities and
the minimum food needs of the United
Nations. County production history
and capacity was also the basis on
which the state U. S. d. A. War Board
tentatively distributed the vital food
job among the counties.
Cooperation, and not miracles, is
needed to get the food production that
is the 1943 war job of Montana farm
ers and ranchers," R. ]. McKenna,
chairman Of the state war board,
pointed out. tits a tough assign
ment, but it can and will be done if
our land army here in the state bat
ties the odds against us with the same
victory spirit that our boys are dis
playing against the axis"
Counties will break their produc-
ton goals down to community goals
which will be met or exceeded by the
individual goals which each farmer or
rancher assigns himself as his part in
the war effort.
1T cannot be emphasized too
strongly that the goals for the needed
war foods such as milk, meat, eggs,
feed grains, poultry, dry beans and
dry peas are minimums," McKenna
said. 1--WE need all the production of
these foods that we can possibly get.
By the same token, we have huge sup
plies of wheat so that wherever posi-
BILE diversion from wheat to other war
crops will be putting more punch into
the war effort"
Goals will be released to counties
as soon as the sugar beet goal has
been definitely established. This is
the only food goal for the state which
has not been determined
Like the other vital crops, there
will be no minimum on sugar beet
production" McKenna pointed out
1--WE need to produce all of the sugar
that can be produced with the avail
able facilities"
Sharply increased assignments in
the production of dry beans and peas,
cattle marketed, flaxseed, pork, tur-
keys, chickens and eggs, and barley
have been given the state. Obtaining
these increases, while maintaining
production of other products is a ma
jor war job for Montana farmers and
ranchers which must be met despite
obstacles of labor and machinery
shortages.
Montana's 1913 food goals are listed
below with a comparison of the war
job successfully met and exceeded by
the states farm plant in 1912. The
1912 figures on sheep and cattle are
