But the past weeks have seen
those prerogatives attacked from
another source-the ever-constant
source of annoyance for the depart

Today it is the. farm bloc which Is
again annoying Mr.. Wickard.
This highly consistent and highly
insistent group in congress decided
it just wasn't going to let Mr.. Wick

First. they induced the senate to
pass law agin' it. Then when the

Then the President said it was rep

gvrmane to the bill Then the bloc
decided to tack it onto the appropri-
alton bill without which the depart
ment of agriculture cannot pay its

seemed willing to face that calami-

they were able to carry out their
policy of selling commodities below

''The farmers of the country I'm
derstand better what we are trying
to do than some members of con-
gress," said one official to me.
This is his explanation:
"All we want to do is to sell grain
low enough so that it will make it
more advantageous for the farmer
to raise livestock. We don't need
the wheat and corn. We have plen-
ty. We do need the meat. So does
England. If we decrease the price
Of feed the farmer will automatical-
ly raise more livestock and let ma
ture turn the starches we don't need
into protein. And also into fats. We
need fats and oil more than ever
since the vegetable oils Of the Meth
erlands Indies have been cut off,"
That is the way the department
of agriculture talks. and" they
add. 1.-The wheat and corn farmer
isn't gong to lose anything. If we
sell our grain at Is per cent below
parity he knows that he can get
that is per cent back, through bene-
fit payments for soil conservation. ="

ton from the army or na ) we are
not allowed to reveal any troop
movements, or any ship move
ments. Ship movements include
vertical movements downwards
(sinkings). When we repeat infor-
nation, contained in enemy state
ments we have to say they are enc
my statements and If possible we
balance them with some statement
from friendly source.
Behind all censorship. behind all
government regulation of speech
and action in wartime is one rule:
do not give aid and comfort to the
enemy. Specific information of a
military nature gives aid and COM
fort to the enemy. We may feel
positive that the enemy can get or
has already obtained that Informal
ton from some other source but
that does not excuse us for repeat
ing it publicly. Certain things are
printed in the newspapers which the
radio cannot broadcast because ra-
dio waves travel everywhere and
the reception is instantaneous. A
weather report can be picked up by
submarine few miles off the
coast. That submarine could not
get copy Of newspaper until it
made physical contact with the shore
or with someone who was there.
Beyond the field of factual infor-
nation which might give aid and
comfort to the enemy lies another
field: the field of speculation. ru-
NOR, comment of a nature which
might be interpreted as giving aid
and comfort to the enemy Here we
simply have to use our swn judy
ments. Criticism of our government

which sounds even to the
layman. But that ISN'T the way the
President explained it. He said that
If the department of agriculture did
not have its way the cost of eating
would be raised a billion dollars a
year.
But the fact remains that the
President is satisfied that Mr. Wick
ard knows what he is doing and that
he is doing what the President
thinks is right.
OF course this doesn't make it
right, or if it did, it wouldn't make
it necessary that the people accept
it. if they prefer some other pro-
gram. If the farm bloc has enough
Of following among the voters
it can write its own ticket. We are
still democracy. It is lot short
er from the ballot box to the con-
gress than it is from the department
of agriculture to the oval office in

House.

The rapid conquest of Java by the Japanese
cudes the defeat of the brave Dutch residents of the
Islands who have not hestaed to contribute their quota
to the fight against aggression.
Despite the dangers that beset the Netherlands
East Indies the Dutch promptly sent their naval units
and avaors to other sectors in order to give battle to
the Japanese Some Of theft ships and many of their
fiers not available for the defense of their
island home. Moreover, planes and other equipment,
bought and paid for by the Dutch, not delivered
by other countries in time to make successful stand
Now that the invasion of Australia seems probable
is well to bear in mind that the Australians, like the
Dutch have not hesated to send their fighting to
battle in other of the world Wherever the British
Empire has been assailed the Ausses have been in
the front lines of BATTLE doing their full share to main
tain the integrity of the Empire.
Now that Australia itself is in peril, let hope

Washington, D. C.
It Is the equal of FIVE long blocks
from where Secretary Wickard's
windows look out on the wide sweep
of lawn in front of the Department
Of Agriculture building, along the
winding roads to the White House.
But Mr.. Wickard, except for cabinet
meetings, doesn't take that trip very
frequently. 1t is not because he isn't
as welcome as any other member Of
the Presidents official family. It 10
because he feels pretty sure If he
tends to his agricultural knitting he
won't be fired.
That can be said (and is said) in
spite Of the fact that he is probably
the only member of the cabinet
whom the President ever told a
large group of listeners that he
could fire.
That was at White House press
and radio conference when the Pres
ident was being questioned concern
ing what seemed to be a conflict
between the secretary Of agriculture
and Price Control Administrator
Henderson as to who was going to
regulate farm prices. He said II
they didn't agree he could fire them
both. The controversy has been for
gotten and Secretary Wickard, who

The Basic Rule
Behind War Censorship

In Washington we have censor
ship for press and radio and also
several propaganda organizations
which are censorship in reverse.
A great many letters which I re-
ceive from listeners to my radio
program say: "Of course we realize
you are not allowed to say (this or
thaD." or I'VE realize you have to
say chat or this)." But the surpris-
ing thing is how seldom the this or
that which the listeners mention
are the things the censorship for
bids US to say, or the ''that or this"
is ever even suggested by the propa-
ganda organizations.
AS a matter of fact I have had
only one direct contact with either
the so-called propaganda bureaus or
the censorship. A man whom /
know personally who is connected
with the Office Of Facts and Figures
once called me up and said that he
would be able to give me some in
teresting information from time to
time. He never has.
AS to the censorship. the radio
chains drew up their own code be-
fore the censorship organization was
founded. It is based largely on COM
mon sense and except for certain
specific details this code differs very
little from the rules which the GEN.
sor expects us to follow. Before l

staff of the Blue network reads over

Women In Industry

AS more and more are called into the Army
and Navy more and will be needed in
industry. At the present time there about oneha
million employed in industries. This num-
Der be increased twelve-fold, according to Miss
Mary Anderson director of the United States Womens
Bureau, by the end of this year.
If Miss Anderson's goal is reached, 40 per cent of
the expected 100000 workers will be women.
But if the goal is to be attained training program
much larger than the program available must be
organized
Training women for many types of work will
be much more satisfactory than training men. Ger
tainy who be used in the armed forces should
not be given training for essential war industries.

Lynn Says:

Good things come in little pack
ages. This little saying applies
perfectly to the concentrated
foods like dried fruits-prunes,
apricots, figs, apples, pears, raj
sins and peaches.
Now more than ever before
you'll want to use more of them
because they can solve your
sweet tooth problem, in addition
to acting as important blood
builders and keeping your body in
good working condition because
of their important vitamin and
mineral values.
You can appreciate why they
do all this for you when you real
ize that to make one pound of
the dried fruit it takes several
pounds of fresh fruit. For ex-
ample, prunes require three
pounds of fresh fruit to make one
pound dried; raisins, four pounds
fresh fruit, apples, six to nine
pounds fresh fruit, pears and figs
both require three pounds of fresh
fruit, while apricots and peaches

WALLACE'S FAVORITES

The men who came TO Washington
with Henry Wallace in the early
days of the New Deal realize now
that they picked winning horse.
Almost to a man, they have moved
up to important posts in the gov
eminent.
Claude Wickard was head of the
corn-hog section in Wallace's AAA.
Now he is secretary of agriculture.
Milo Perkins was lowly assistant
to Wallace, holding down a desk in
the outer office. Today, he runs the
Board of Economic Warfare, as i'm
portant as cabinet post.
Paul Appleby was an assistant in
the inner office. Now he is under
secretary of agriculture at $4,000 a
year.
Chester Davis was head of the
AAA. Now he is director of the
Federal Reserve bank in St. Louis.
r. M. ("Spike") Evans was an
aide to Wallace; now head of AAA.
Sam Bledsoe, Roy Hendrickson,
and Whitney Tharin were newsmen
covering agriculture. Bledsoe is
now an assistant to the secretary.
MERRY-GO-ROUND
Secretary of War StimsOn is held
in the warmest personal esteem by
army commanders. Handwriting

his subordinates 100 per cent. Slim
