GNEef America most famous
" soldiers, having just been
placed in command of a handful
of farmers and woodsmen and
assigned to defeating the most
powerful world military force of
his day, sat down and wrote a
letter home to his wife.
In il he said:
81 shall feel no pain from the
toll and danger of the campaign;
my unhappiness will flow only
from the uneasiness 1 know you
will feel on being left aloBe.---
~ therefore beg Of you that
you will summon your W h o
fortitude and pass your time as
agreeably az possible"
The writer was Gen. George
Washington, and the advice he
gave Martha Washington holds as
good for the homefolks in this war
as il did in the revolution.
Don't grouse and complain and
pour out all your problems in that
letter you are writing TO your man
who has taken up arms for his
country.
Like our revolutionary fore

with the enemy, and though he
does not like il, he does not shrink
from mud and forced marches and
bursting bombs he must endure in
strange surroundings TO destroy
that enemy.

POLITICAL PARADE
BY GEORGE ROTHWELL BROWN

A SUBSTITUTE for food SUBJ
~ sides, under another name.
or in another form, appears TO
be in the making on Capitol
Hill.
A possible compromise may be
the outcome of an increasing
following, in Congress, and
among the farmers, for Marvin
Jones.
Something akin to a food
car, with Mr.. Jones in the title
role, may come from the House
banking and currency commit
tee, which is now intenSively

request for an extension of the
financial operations of t h c

1t will be recalled that last
summer. when Chester Davis
resigned in disgust and disillu-
sionment AS war food admins
traitor, a bill was pending in the
House of representatives which
would have set up a virtual die
tatorship over production and
distribution Of food, independ-
ent OF OPA.
WHEN Chef Davis stepped
W out, however, and Marvin
Jones was yanked off the bench
to take over his duties--an APP
pOintment regarded as largely
political-the bill was quietly
shclved.
Since then. however, Judge
Jones has been regalnlng al the
Capitol a considerable part Of
the support which formerly had
been given 10 his predecessor.
The great farm organizations.
which are hostile TO consumer
subsidies, are noticeably swing
ing over 10 the Jones side.
Edward A. ONeal, president
of the all-powerful American
Farm Bureau Federation. long
on the outs with the White
House, is said TO have made his
peace there recently. a deScrip-
tion of the situation which he
has told his friends easily might
be exaggerated.
Nevertheless, as the hearings
before the banking and currency
committee got under way. there
was a very definite feeling of
some sort Of compromise in the
Congressional air.
THlS does not mean that so
Il far as the House Of Rep
resentatives is concerned there
has been any weakening of the
opposition to the Presidents
policy Of consumer subsidies.
