Planning Group
of LaytOnsville
Holds Meeting
Discussion Groups'Of Opin-
ion That Labor Shortage
Grows More Serious

The poll of opinion of the so or
more persons attending a meeting
of the Laytonsville Planning
group of the Farm Bureau held
Saturday evening in the school indi-
Gated that county farmers expect
to plant crops as large as last
years but were doubtful of being
able to harvest them unless good
outside help was secured.
The meeting planned as a "get
acquainted" one was conducted by
the chairman, Marshall Davis,
County agricultural agent AMI
Mrs. o. w. Anderson were pres
ent, also the assistant agent and
Mrs. Roscoe Whip and guests
from Laytonsville and other Sec
tons of the county.
Others present were WiIbert
Smith of the State Farm Bureau,
field agent for Western Maryland /;
Warren G. Myers, agent for How
ard county; William s. Ledbetter,
president of the Howard County
Farm Bureau, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Griffith Jones, also of Howard
county.
Divided into four groups to
demonstrate the advantages of
small discussion groups, with a
leader and secretary for each, the
consensus of opinion wass That the
shortage of help was much more
serious than last year; that farm
ers had, or were able to get, most
of the power machinery they need
ed; that repairs were hard to get;
that industry should not be al
lowed to absorb a man who was a
much better dairyman or farmer
than industrial worker; that the
U. S. employment offices seemed
more interested in getting an APP
plicant a job than it was in the
farmer he was leaving; that it'was
shameful farmers stood by and let
organized labor and other interests
come in and spoil the "Work or
Fight" bill put through the last
Legislature by the only "dirt"
farmer member that body has had
from Montgomery county recently.
The fight on cooperatives by pri-
vate business came in for much
pro-and-con comment, mostly ia
voring the cooperatives. AS a re-
suit of the interest stirred by the
meeting it is thought several
other small neighborhood planning
groups will be organized.
