Control Of Initiation
Is Civilian Problem,
Roosevelt Declares
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
SHAWNEE E-ON-DELAWARE. Pa,
Sept. 15.-President Roosevelt said
yesterday that Government action
to control imitation can do only part
of the job" and that the co-opera-
ton of United States civilians is
necessary.
In message to the National Pub
fishers Association, the President
declared:
mo problem touches more in
timately the welfare of every man,
woman and child in our country
than the threat of rise in prices.
The war has created a tremen-
dously increased spendable income.
and at the same time has reduced
the supply of goods and services
available to civilian consumers. Un-
less controlled, these two elements
can set in motion an inf1ationary
spiral that would cause serious eco
nomic diSorganization. This not
only would be detrimental to our
war effort, but could make difficult
the attainment of many of the bene-
hts of the peace to come.
The task of holding the line
against imitation is one that re-
qulres closest cooperation between
the people and their Government.
Government controls can do only
part of the job. Voluntary action
on the part of civilians is essential
if success is to be achieved in this
program"
Mr.. Roosevelt said an educational
campaign sponsored by 481 maga-
zines to explain the infationary
problem to the people was "a{i out
standing example" of public service
The campaign was prepared by
the War Advertising Council in CO.
operation with the Office of Eco
nomic Stabilizataion and the Office
of War Information. The council
said the participating magazines
had total circulation in excess of
100000.

in the form of animal and plant disease,
lack Of water balance, and all the prob
lens against which the farmer habit
ually does battle-and in this case an
additional one, prejudice against
women actively engaging in this field Of
work. To some extent this is the age
old tendency of public opinion that
women have had to face on entering
any new domain. However, in this in
stance, it is not entirely without grounds.
The thought of women of culture en-
gaging in this kind of labor is nat
urally repellant. The question of living
conditions also arises. The usual tenant
shack seems inadequate for those accus-
toned to modern conveniences and not
all farmhouses afford sufficient room
for their hired hands.

A trip to truck farm over on the coast
of Maryland was an eye-opener to

heard there was immediate need of
spinach cutters there. The report had
gone out that as high as $40 might be
made in a day. Though none of the
girls could be accused of fortune hunt
ing, the reward did sound enticing.
No one stopped to figure that at the
rate of Il to l cent per pound as the
price of cutting ranged, from 1000 to
1000 pounds of spinach would have to
be picked in day to realize as much as
$40. They set out in high hopes and

but with reserve, an unmistakable you
