Full Output Needed
For Farm Prosperity,
Dewey Declares
Ey the Associated Press,

ALBANY. Oct. 23.-Gov. Thomas
E. Dewey took up another important
presidential campaign issue today
with q declaration that the "first
fundamental necessity for a pros
porous agriculture" is full production
and employment in business and
industry.
only If all elements in our coun-
try pull together" the Republican
nominee said in statement, can
we attain the twin goals of pros
porous farming and a good diet for
all our people
The Governor remarks prefaced
a State Food Commission report re-
leased today.
Obviously beamed toward the Ma
ton as well as the State, the Dewey
appointed commissions report said:
If everyone in the United States
had a good diet our national health
and vigor would be greatly improved
and the problem of maintaining
prosperous agriculture would be
largely solved.
Many Problems Faced.
"a good diet for everyone would
necessitate large increase in the
production of the protective foods
dairy products, meats, eggs, fruits
and vegetables. A substantial in
crease in the per capita consumption
OF these foods would both improve
our health and make fuller use of
our farm plant.
In working toward the twin goals
OF prosperous agriculture and a
good diet for all, many problems
must be faced Farm incomes must
be such as to enable efficient farm
operators to pay operating expenses,
maintain their farms and provide
good living for themselves and their
families.
Consumers must have enough
money to buy the food they need,
which means they must have jobs.
In addition, education in what con-
stitutes good diet Is called for, and
for those who are hopelessly handi-
capped with respect to income, some
form of aid is necessary for them to
get the amounts of protective foods
required for good health"
In brief, the thesis advanced by
Gov. Dewey's commission is that
the farmer is dependent on the city
worker, who in turn is dependent
on a steady-income job in order to
pay for a regular supply of the
farmers food.

Roper Election Analysis
Roper Election Analysis
'Roosevelt's Foreign Policy
Called Big Aid in Campaign

This Is one OF a series OF
analyses OF election polls by
Elmo Roper, research expert OF
Fortune Magazine and conductor
OF that magazines polls. His
articles appear in The Star
Mondays and Thursdays.
BY ELMO ROPER.
In this presidential election, one
Of the most important of the major
issues is the question of active
United States participation in world
affairs.
A great number of people will &c
to the polls on November 7 to vote
for the candidate they are convinced
will most effectively put America
into active cooperation and collabo-
ration with the other powers of the
world.
However vocal the isolationist
sentiment might be, 1t Is important
to remember that 1t is now most de-
cisively minority sentiment
Americans are more united in their
determination to see this country
participate actively in world affairs
than they are united in their con-
viction as to which candidate is
most likely to see that America
does SO.
Events have forced this conclu-
sion on our people. In 1888 We
were a long way from being either
a belligerent or an internationally
minded nation. During that veal
a Fortune survey asked a eros!
section Of our people whether ol
not they would like to see the Unitet
States come to the aid of certain
countries if those countries were at.

| Seventy-three per cent were II
favor of defending Canada If tina
country were SO attacked, but onl.
46 per cent were in favor of de
Tending the Philippines, only 2
per cent Brazil, only 43 per cen
Mexico, and only % per cent Eng
land. But that was before peopl,
were fully aware either of Hitler
intentions or of his capabilities.
Shift on Neutrality Stand.
BY September, 1899, the American
people were firm in their hope tina
we could stay out of war, but the,
were by no means convinced that W,
could. Fifty-four per cent said the,
wanted to see the United States TAX;
no sides and be strictly neutral
Another 20 per cent were willing Il

New Unrest Reported
In Sicilian Capital
BY the Associated Press.


ROME, Oct. 23-New disorders
were reported over the week end in
the Sicilian capital of Palermo,
where 10 persons were killed and
more than 100 wounded last Thurs
day in fighting between Italian
troops and mob.
Rome press dispatches said police
were forced to fire on a group Of
strikers" who broke into a theater
on the Piazzi Verdi, but apparently
there were no further casualties.
The dispatches also reported a
bomb was hurled into a public mar
ket and a grenade was thrown at
sentries guarding public utility.
Leaders. of the Sicilian separatist
movement were said to have been
arrested and charged with distmbut-
ing pamphlets.

No Liquid Gas Stored
Here Like That Which
Blasted Cleveland

Washington has no storage of
liquid gas such as that which caused
the disastrous Cleveland fire, ac-
cording to E. J. Boothby, general
manager of the Washington Gas
Light Co. i
"Om installations are all of the
conventional type Mr.. Bocthby
said. Our large tanks store gas
as gas. The safety history of this
type of installation around the
country has been excellent. I have
never known one to explode"
Mr.. Boothby explained that the
huge cylindrical tanks which store
Washington's gas are like an in
verted cup in water. AS the gas is
pumped in it lifts the cup higher
in the water. AS the gas is tapped
the cup sinks back into the water.
Pressure Remains Low.
THE thing about the conven-
tional type of tank that makes for
safety is that the gas is never mixed
with air within it, SO it never is in
an explosive state, and the pressure
is not high" he said. Even though
such tank were exposed to fire 1t
would burn, it would not explode. -
Thomas B. Hopper, engineer OF
the company, said that liquifying
gas has been considered an expen-
sive process In the industry but
never dangerous one.
Il have no idea how 1t happened, B"
he said, commenting on the disaster
The three spherical liquid storage
tanks in Cleveland that caused the
disaster, he said, were the only ones
of their kind in the country. He
said that liquid gas is stored with
no great internal pressure.
once you get gas to liquid at
extremely low temperature, he
said, "it is easy to handle. Kept
from air it contains no re-expan-
sion force trying TO change it back
into gas.
Compressed BY Pumps.
'The process in use in Cleveland
was to compress natural gas with
compression pumps, then let 1t re-
expand in another chamber. AS i,
re-expands it loses much of its
heat. Then it is compressed again
and refrigerated-the next gas
chamber is surrounded by refriger-
alton coils. 1t finally condenses
into a liquid occupying one cubic
foot of space for every 600 cubic
feet of gas.
The storage tanks have four feet
Of cork in their walls to keep the
liquid cold. Their function is to
keep gas for peak days when the
flow from the fields cannot meet
the demand. OF course, should the
liquid flow out through a break it
would change into a great quantity
OF gas as it met the air. Still can
not understand how 1t happened"

for giving aid to the Allies had in
creased to Al per cent and per
cent wanted to enter the war at once
on the side Of the Allies. A year
later another survey showed that 54
per cent Of our people felt that It
was our war as well as England's war
and We should be in there fighting
at the side Of England.
This was a recognition OF the
fact that we were no longer the
sole masters Of our own destinies.
Much has been said and written
about how our fleet was caught
mapping at Pearl Harbor. The
American people were caught nap
ping, too. While they had been
becoming increasingly aware of the
Iinevitability with which America
would be forced into any major
world conflict, they hadn't ex-
pected the attack from that quarter
The attack electrified the Nation
and solidified opinion. Some feared
Americans would be so engrossed
with the idea of defeating Japan
that it would be dificult to keep up
their interest in the war against
Hitler. This was not true.
Sense Of Perspective.
The American people kept a sense
of perspective which is nothing
short of amazing in light of the
blow they had just been struck and
the anger it had generated.
Once in the struggle, it was in
evitable that people would start
talking and thinking about possible
ways to prevent future wars. 1t be-
came obvious to most that the way
to peace did not lie either in beine
unprepared or in "minding our oWr
business" 1t became apparent to 6
great majority of our citizens thai
the way to peace lay In being fully
prepared and in fully participating
as a member of worldwide society
With sentiment so strongly IL
I favor OF our becoming membeI
Of some sort Of world organization
the stand Of President Roosevelt
and Gov. Dewey on this and related
subjects becomes one of the mos
important issues of the campaign.

Mr.. Dewey's statements and more
particularly his designation of John
Foster Dulles to confer with Secre-
tary of State Hull have done much
to remove the charge that he ac-
tually represents an isolationist Re-
publican party.
There is, however, still a belief on
the part of majority that Mr..
Roosevelt and the Democrats will be
more effective in the international
field, and this is one of the advan-
tages he enjoys at the present mo-
ment in his campaign for re-elec-
ton.
