running for governor. Among them are
homestead exemption and a highway

that will give the necessary price
assurances"
Referring to the subsidy program,
urged by President Roosevelt In a
recent message to Congress, Mr..
Jones said that use of Commodity
Credit Corp. funds to support farm
prices and obtain additional produc-
ton had proved highly successful"
this year and that he desired to
continue 1t in 1914.
Legislation due to come before
the House within the next few DAYS
would continue the life of the CCC
beyond December 81, but would pro-
hibit use Of CCC funds for payment
of subsidies.
A proposal that American farm
organizations invite farm group
leaders from Britain, Canada, Aus
tralia, China and other friendly ma
tions to participate in an interna-
tional conference to draft a pro-
gram for postwar agricultural pros
perity was advanced earlier today
at the convention.
The suggestion was made by Nor
ton Tompkins, master OF the Oregon
State Grange and one of three
American farm leaders who returned
only few days ago from an in
spection trip Of British farms. The
other two were Harry Wingate, pres
ident Of the Georgia Farm Bureau
Federation, and Harvey Solberg,
president of the Rocky Mountain
section Of the National Farmers
Union.
The Grange convention was ex-
pected to approve resolution call
ing for such conference.
The international meeting would
be held probably at Washington
within the next six months. It
would 60 over much of the ground
covered by the United Nations food
conference at Hot Springs, Va, last
spring. Participating, however, would
be farm leaders who have no gov
ernmental connections. The Hot
Springs meeting was made up large
ly Of diplomatic and governmental
officials and economists.
1T is the belief of many farmers"
Mr.. Tompkins said, that a sound,
practical program for the future
well-being OF agriculture throughout
the world can be developed only by
those who know the practical, every
day problems Of farmers. They doubt
the ability Of diplomats to do the
job"
Principles and programs which
might be developed at the inter-
national farm meeting would be laid
before political leaders at future
peace and economic conferences on
postwar rehabilitation.

that this will probably mean at least
as much food per capita as in the
prewar years, both on a tonnage
basis and in terms Of food value, !"
Mr.. Jones said.
Adequate food must be assured for
the consuming public, he asserted,
but at the same time the public is
equally determined to apportion the
supply so that it can be an effective
weapon for war and 50 that adequate
quantities can be provided for the
armed forces and our allies.
Mr.. Jones assured the Grange it
was WAS purpose to see that the
farmers receive adequate returns
next year for the all-time record

duce. y

You can say that about the departments of
Swift & Company as well as about the bust
ness of farming.
We diversity our operations, just as some
farmers diversity theirs, to make an Opv all
profit more ikely-even though some prod
ucts may not be profitable in any one year.
So, over period of years, there has never
been year when some departments did not
make money and some lose For example,
the less favorable earnings of our fresh meat
departments during 1913 were Offset by i'm
proved earnings in the non-meat departments.

Planning and research are necessary in farm
ing and in our business if we are to get the

must include:

Izaak Walton League
Is Ten Years Old
The Editor
Montgomery County Sentinel
Rockville, Maryland

The Editor
Montgomery County Sentinel
Rockville, Maryland
The Rockville Chapter of the
Izaak Walton League of America
was chartered in the summer OF
1888. This, then, is its 10th ami
versary. During ten years a COM
paratively small number of men
have been working for "the protec-
ton of our Woods, Waters, and
Wildlife." Many of these men now
in the Service have written back
urging us not to relax our efforts.
They have given us another slogan,
"Keep America Worth Fighting
For"
Now the League frankly feels
that greater effort than ever is
necessary; that more, not fewer,
members are needed. The strain
on our natural resources is great
er than ever before. The need for
postwar planning is an accepted
dictum. No one of us can say he
is not interested. No one of us
can say it is not his responsibility.
In spite of the opinion of some,
the Izaak Walton League is not a
Fish and Game association. Great
as are material resources, impor-
ant as are economic values, enjoy
able as are the active sports of
hunting and fishing to some, there
is more important angle.
The outdoors, the heritage of
fresh air, green trees, and free
dom, shape the American Spirit.
This we cannot afford to lose. The
possession of this common heritage
is guarantee of our Democracy.
In a struggle for lasting peace
recognition of the right of all
men to share equally in the enjoy
ment of these things God had Civ
en- us is fundamental. Their values
