DISCUSSED AT FARLEY

At a meeting in the Book-Cadil-
lac yesterday, the problem of
postwar farm buying was dis
cussed by Gov. Kelly. members of
the planning commissions agri-
cultural advisory committee, Go
and AF'L leaders and representa-
tives of the Michigan Manufac-
turers' Association and tn e
Automotive Council for War Pro-
ductlon.
Under the plan, factory work
ers seeking advice on farm land
purchases will be referred by their
local unions or factory personnel
departments TO either their local
county agricultural agents or TO
the agents in the counties in
which they want to buy.
AS for discharged veterans,
similar steps will be taken by
local selective service officials or
veterans organizations.
FARM OBSTACLES
While the participants in the
conference refuted any claim that
they sought TO discourage agri-
culture. they warned that any
current farm expansion program
was poorly founded since the 1914
farmer was producing 25 to 30
per cent more food than before
the war and with less help; that
farm prices were p per cent
higher than those of the prewar
period and would drop back to a
lower level. and that only so per
cent of Michigan rural land Is

The Michigan factory worker,
facing a layofi in forthcoming

Preached Cooperation

There is no doubt that what
Horner said was entirely true
that II takes team work 10 win
this war or any war. But so
far. there has been no tendency
on the part of Detroit or its
main industry TO make any
claims for winning the war.
Nor does there seem any dan
ger of this when the war is
actually won. The auto indus
try has played ball from the
beginning. II teamed up its
own plants and made co-opera-
ton the watchword.
II did the same with other
industries with which it had to
work. 1t accepted and gave
help. short cuts, information
and advice. win the war first"
was the watchword. II now
has showed reoonversion on the
top shelf for the same reason.
The aircraft industry has no
reason TO fear that the auto
industry will try TO persuade
any one that it single-handed
won the war. II Will be too
busy taking care Of its postwar
business.

And last night L. NJ. CJack
Horner. president OF United
Aircraft, builders of Pratt e.
Whitney engines and helicop-
tiers, stood before a small audi
enee at the Detroit Athletic
Club and warned the automo-
tive industry against laying too
big a claim on the We won
the war" title.
Horner very logically pointed
out that the aircraft industry
held the line and did the pro-
duction Job until we'll after
Pearl Harhor. He warned that
If another war should come. the
United States would have to
have a strong aircraft industry
10 permit US TO survive another
first year Of war.

per- cent. compared with NoNem.
Der, 1913, NJ. j. Kelly, superin-
tendent of the Railway Express
Agency, reported today, A total of
1885 shipments were handled

crease of 3l9 shipments over
November year ago, Kelly said.
Gross revenue of Detroit air ex-
press traffic was down 1872 per
cent over November, 1913, 1t was
reported.
Total tonnage handled during
the month amounted to $50, 104
pounds.
"Most of our air traffic In No
vember consisted of materials
and supplies essential to the ma
tiOn's war production" Kelly
said, although shipments of es-
sential civilian merchandise were
considerable during the month"

Takes Cooperation

"No effective production can
be expected from converted ia
cilities In less than IL 10 Is
months" he said. This means
that going aircraft industry
must provide all the air power
that IL required for our defense
fer the FIRST It'll year ofLwar=
plus.
But tee many people will not
understand this. IL will be
natural TO remember the won
derful production job that was
ultimately done and TO look
back on the automobile industry
as the sinews of the war effort"
Horner's point was that il
will take a strong aircraft in
dustry and the greatest pro-
ducing organization in the
world, the automotive industry,
in cooperation, 10 make any
aggressor nation think twice
before starting something with
the United States.
