expect such an awakening until the
collapse comes.
Statisticians believe that both
World Wars | and II are only
symptoms OF a great world revolu-
ton which started in Russia 20
years ago and may continue for so
years more. We are experiencing
great economic turnover which
comes only once in 200 or 800
years. Our children may suffer
therefrom; but our great grand
children may be better OFF by the
changesw hich are ahead. In plain
English, the world is being given
dose of salts. Neither the
New Deal nor the Republican party
can prevent this purge from work
ing although they can delay action.
Rule to Follow
What does this mean to us?
What should we do to protect our
selves against the Deluge when it
hits the United States Well,
have covered this in book pub
lished at 81 by Harper Bros. of
New York titled, Looking ahead
Fifty Years. The meat OF this
book is as follows:
l. Have a small CLOSE in" home
W I enough land to feed your fam
lily in case you lose your job and
money. | do not recommend garm-
ing as a post-wa business; but 1t
is an excellent insurance.
2. Have your chilpdren and
grandchildren trained in some one
thing such as stenography, tipping,
nursing, accounting or even play
ing a musical instrument. An en-
cheering or medical training
should be a great asset; but the
ordinary college degree may be
only a ticket to the poor house.
3. Diversity your interests and
very broadly, seeking
security rather than salary or divi-
dends. Always have a good proper
ton OF your capital in good mer-
ctandise or merchandise stockks.
In fact, a little family business,
which your grandchildren can carry
on,-if necessary-independent' Of
may be an excellent
hedge.
Develop good and thrifty habits,
raise a good family and connect
yourself with the church which
will ultimately be the Saviour of
civilization.

A Thought for Today
Next Summer, Toughest Yet

Responsible military authorities say we are approaching what will probably be the final summer of the war in Europe. If this is so, then we are also facing the wars most difficult summer. It will require extra effort from those at home.
 Nowhere, according to present indi- cations, will this extra effort be needed more than in food production So before we become too immersed in postwar planning and political speculation, let's take serious look at the prospects. There are two chief difficulties among the pre- dictable obstacles to raising still another record crop in 1944. One is the scarcity of labor. The other, confusion regarding future of price control and stabilization.
 Solution of the second difficulty rests with Congress and the President. Their task is complicated by the shortage of time, and by the hot political fight over the subsidy program
 Solution of the first problem rests with women and youths and men out of Serv- ice. Last year women and boys and girls under 18 made about l,500,000 of the B. 500,000 supplementary workers. This year the Department of Agriculture es- timated that this supplementary force will have to be 4,000,000. It has assigned to women and youngsters the task of making up the difference. The implication In this Is that the remaining 2,000,000 of last years seasonal workers marked peak figure, and that we can not depend on getting more imported labor, war prisoners and furloughed sol- diers to take up the slack. It's job for the ordinary civilian, and the need may be even greater than the Agriculture De- partmentS estimate shows. For since the estimate was issued, draft deferments for farm workers have been frightened, and the agriculture labor force is now at record loW-4 per cent below the figure at the same time last year.
 There is every indication that our annual food crop will have fewer produc- CTS and more consumers in 1944 than ever before. The armed forces needs cannot he denied. An invasion of Europe will necessitate heavy replacements, and the liberation of half-starvcd Europeans will present another outlet for our food SUD- ply. The only solution seems to be more women and children to continue the ex- cellent job done last year, for more bus inessmen within reach of farms to give an afternoon or full day whenever pos sible, for more vacationers to take holiday of agricultural work. All this and Victory Gardens too can turn the trick.
