|LaytOnsville Farm
Planning Group
Holds Meeting
Seek Better Plan For Con-
troll Of Rabies-COncerned
Over Anti-Farm Views

The Laytonsville Farm Bureau
Planning group at meeting held
Thursday evening at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Lawson King, near
Gaithersburg, urged that immed-
late action be taken on the part Of
County Commissioners, Farm Blu
reau and other county organiza-
tions FOR better plan of control
Of the rabies situation. The pro-
posed plan of vaccination for all
dogs in addition to the quarantine,
followed by a shooting campaign
of all loose dogs would probably
last for a period of four to six
weeks and be cheaper and more
effective, was the consensus of
opinion Of the group, than the pres
ent partial quarantine.
Feeling that better understand
ing between rural and urban peo-
pie is of vital importance, great
concern was expressed over the
misstatements and anti-farm views
as expressed by Jay Franklin,
counsel to OPA in his book "For
What We Are About To Receive"
A motion was unanimously carried
to ask that an investigation be
made to see if he has any connec-
ton with public relations Of agri-
cultural problems, and that he be
removed from Office.
This group feels that there is
a great need Of better publicity to
bring before the public what the
farmer has contributed TO the war
effort and show little support he
has been given.
"Why" asked Mrs. A. w. Hines,
discussion leader, "are farmers re-
ferIed to as producers only, when
they are the largest group Of con-
sumers as well?"
Concern was also expressed over
the way AAA regulates agriculture
and an article on the relationship
of the Federal Government and the
nations farmers, written by Clark
s. Hobbs of the Baltimore Sun,
was recommended for reading.
