Fairfax Stone Planted
December IA, 1886

After making thorough eXplora-
ton Of all the small streams about the
head of the Potomac, they, on the
fourteenth day Of December, 1916,
marked the place where the Fairfax
stone now stands, as the source Of the
Potomac river.
In 1877, the same party explored
and marked the source of the Kappa
hammock.
The commissioners made out their
report and submitted it to the COVER
nor of Virginia; and after it went the
rounds of the House of Burgesses and
Council of Plantation Affairs, it was
submitted to the King and he, on April
II, 1745, approved and signed the
same, thereby confirming the boun-
diaries of the Northern Neck.
The King then ordered the Governor
of Virginia to appoint a commission
Csimilar to the first one) to run out
and mark the line from the source Of
the Rappahannock to the source Of the
Potomac. The governor appointed
Joshua Fry, Lunsford Lormax and
Peter Hedgeman to act on the part

nounced determination that Ameri-
ca shall not enter into any treaties,
secret or otherwise, designed to per-
NIT power politics and control of the
world by force with coercion of

In his telegram, Senator Brooks
said also:
|. L am sure it is the view of the
Republican party that We should
not fail to emphasize that we are
opposed to any world state which
might place American soldiers and
sailors under foreign command
for world policing. 1 am also sure
that W. must not fail to emphasize
our determination to protect Amer
lca's military, naval and economic
strength from any dininution at
the international conference table.
Let Americas world leadership
be strengthened at the international
conference table so that the COM
batants Of this war will not have
died in vain. Let America come
away from this table with new out
lying bases for military security and
with its finances and it's resources
protected against foreign intrigue.
We are sustaining huge losses in this
war. There must be no losses
through diplomacy. America must
remain strong"

Postwar Prosperity
OF Farming, Industry
Linked by Wickard
BY the Associated Press.


Secretary of Agriculture Wickard
said today that full industrial en-
ployment. supplementary steps to
increase consumption by low-income
groups and expanding world trade
are essential conditions for a pros
porous postwar agriculture.
Without these conditions, he
added, the best farm policies and
programs that could be devised
would be more pain-killers than
cures"
In statement before the Special
House Committee on Postwar Eco
nomic Policy and Planning, Mr..
Wickard said agriculture faces many
difficult problems, chief of which
would be finding markets for its
tremendous productive capacity"
Emphasizing the need for foreign
outlets, the Secretary nevertheless
expressed opposition to "indiscrimi-
nate dumping" of surpluses because,
he said. such measures soon would
lead to retaliation and to new and
more restrictive trade barriers.
Mr.. Wickard advocated, instead
international commodity agreements
designed to stabilize markets and
prices by eliminating cut-throat
competition
He expressed the belief that Gov
ernment programs to increase con-
sumption Of food and clothing along
the lines of the prewar food stamp
plan would be needed in postwar
years even under conditions of full
employment.
Under present income patterns. !"
he said. even full employment
would fail to give millions of FAM
lilies the buying power to purchase
enough of these commodities.

of America and the peoples of the
other nations"
Senator Vandenberg, Republican,
of Michigan, member of the Sen
ate Foreign Relations Committee
conferred with Mr.. Dulles imme-
diately after Senator Austin left
Mr.. Dulles expects to remain here
until Friday and will confer with
other Republican House and Senate
leaders.
Dulles May Revise Plans.
Mr.. Dulles. at a press conference
after his arrival, gave some broad
indications of possible developments
in his talks with Mr.. Hull. He
brought along, he said, his own ideas
and those of Gov. Dewey on organ
izing world peace.
Depending on how the meeting
with Mr.. Hull develops, he expected
to present those ideas to the Secre-
tary and he made it clear that if
they were in conflict with the
American plan, as already presented
at Dumbarton Oaks, he might sug-
gest some eleventh-hour alterations.
However, he said he did not know
what the plan is and could not say
in advance whether changes would
be suggested.
Asked whether he intended to
remain here for the duration of the
Dumbarton conversations he said
he would go very far to comply
with any request made by Secretary
Hull, subject to keeping in touch
with Gov. Dewey"
Whether he stays or not, he made
1t clear, he would expect that Mr..
Hull would keep him and Gov.
Dewey constantly informed of the
progress of the Dumbarton talks
because Il think it would be Diff
cult to Cooperate without definite
information"
Cooperation in the sense of Re-
publican support for the peace or
ganization plans worked out under
the Democratic administration, Mr..
Dulles said, does not mean complete
removal of the subject from CAM
paign discussion. He said it should
not preclude free public discussion"
by political leaders in the months
ahead.
