Feel Deeply on Issues.
Mr.. O'Nears letter said in part:
The great majority of farmers
feel deeply over these two issues.
They resent the misinformatlon
which has been spread over the
country which, to considerable de-
gree. has obscured the real issues
that are involved. Many people
have been misled into believing that
the war effort will be impeded if the
government is restrained from using
its stocks to drive farm prices below
parity and If large increases in ap-
nropriations to the Farm Security
Administration are not forthcoming
THE fallacy of these contentious
has been exposed over and over
again. 1t is unnecessary and unWlse
for the Government to deliberately
set out to drive down grain prices
to subsidize low food prices to con-
sumers. Experience has demon
strated again and again that !
grain prices become demorahzeo
they ultimately will result In demor
allied prices for live stock and dalr!
and poultry products.
Furthermore, there is no JUSTIN
able reason why consumers shoul'
not pay fair prices at this time
when consumer income is at tn
highest level on record, instead o
subsidizing the consumer either a
the expense of the farmer or IN
public treasury.
The Government is not using 1t
powers to beat down the wages Q
industrial labor, although wages ar
the greatest single element-abou
two-thirds-of the costs Of good
and services, and although labor

tory.

Read Public Mind

The old dilemma which causes
the managers to tug at their re-
naming locks Is whether the
playgoers wish escapist enter
tainment or not. whether they
wish to forget the grim drudgery.
of war in a little theatrical
moonshine, or whether they
wish TO see shows that heighten
the sense of living in troubled
and historic times.
In the last war II was said
that people went TO the theater
TO forget the war. and when
peace returned went TO What
Price Glory" and Journeys
End" TO remember IL.
Doubtless both plays would
have been hit during the war
II they had been written then.
Just as current best sellers deal
with the world as we find II
from day to day. Plainly the
general feeling that every one is
actually a part of the present
war. whether at home or in the
field. gives il a broader impact.
In the enormous scale of
things the perspective Of the
theater and its audiences is
bound to change with the per-
spective outside. Global war
seems stable enough to include
even the theater.
Meantime the first nighters
can get their egoes and their
ermine wraps out of moth balls.
II may take a long time in a
changing world to change the
peacock rituals of the Broad
way show-shops.
