Women Land Army
Seeks More Workers
For British Farms
Droftine Of Port Time
Harvest Helpers
Being Considered
BY HELEN KIRKPATRICK,

BY HELEN KIRKPATRICK,
Foreisn Correspondent of The Star and
CHICAGO Daily News.
LONDON, Feb. 2.-American and
British farmers have at least one
thing In common-shortage Of labor.
+ Recruitment for the women's land
army Is being reopened here, and
the farmers are talking Of the pos
sible necessity for drafting of part
time workers to. handle this years
harvest.
Acreage. under cultivation has
been increased yearly since the out
break Of the war, with farmers try
ing to handle the situation with
fewer workers than before the war.
This years increase, however, makes
additional assistance necessary.
Until now the women's land army,
which Is especially trained, has been
invaluable in replacing farm work.
ers who have been drafted. That
army Is now to be increased from
about $1,000 to loo, 900.
Even with the land army doubled
in sise, farmers, particularly In the
north country, believe that they viii
need many more part-time workers
for the harvest than they think will
be casually available. These women
workers may be drawn from school
children as well as the land army,
and they are asking for more Ital-
ian prisoners.
The extent to which Britain has
increased production can be seen
from the figures of the North Rid
ing Of Yorkshire alone. Today
farmers there are using 1000 more
tractors than before the war and
have increased cultivated acreage
from 27s, 900 to 100000. Land sown
to barley has jumped from $1,000
to $4,000 acres and rye from 1000
to 5000 acres. These are, addition
ally, 1000 more cows In the riding.
Housing for farm workers IS as
much = problem as finding workers
themselves. From time to tirhe
there Is criticism Of increasingly
high agricultural wages. The aver
age minimum laid down by the War
Agricultural Committees last year
Is 90 sl1illings weekly t312J plus
board. Threshers are getting II
shillings t@2.50) daily In some coun-
tries, Price ceilings on foods have
prevented increased wages from
Forcing the cost Of living up, but
there are many farm subsidies.

A PLEA

Americans, one and all
That means you and me
Don't start in and froWn
When another ration book comes
round.
We must win this war
And start in right now.
How can our boys win the fight
When they don't get any chow?
We can't expect them to fight
In lands over there
Without they have food to eat
And some of it to share.
We must do without things we
want;
We get the things we really
need.
Some we can do without
Because they make us stout.
Our boys are fighting
Over there in mud and rain;
They need all they can get
To stop fever and pain.
So, you and I, and everyone,
Do the best we can
For our fighting sons
Trying to win the battle over in
distant lands.
So, let us ask God, in his love,
To look down from above
And give peace in our land,
And that soon we may hear
America shout and say,
Our boys are coming home to-
day!"
No more to hear the cannon roar,
No more to hear of cruel war
America settled the score
For now and ever more.
