THE RIGHT TRACTOR
FOR THE PARTICULAR JOB

THE proverbial Jack Of all trades was
l. master of none. The modern world of
science and technology passed him by.
The same principle applies to farm
tractors. The tractor that does wide variety
of jobs unsatisfactory can't possibly pro-
duce the greatest results at the least cost
in any job.
But that's what the farmer particularly
the small operator-has got to do to meet
postwar competition: he's got to broauce
the mast food possible uitb The least effort
and, consequently at the bwea cost.
The farmer with 10 acres in truck crops
needs one kind of tractor. The farmer
with 100 acres il wheat alone needs an
other kind-or, as is usually the case, two
or more different tractors. The trac-
tor which does good job on the
Great Plains may be useless in the

rice territory. And SO it goes.
Conditions of climate, the lay of the land,
and the character of soils in the different
parts of this vast country, together with
wide variations in the nature of crops and
the size of operations, combine to pro-
duce wide differences in the requirements
for tractors. Harvester's policy is to meet
all these requirements.
That is why Harvester's postwar line in
cludes a great variety of Farmalls and other
specialized tractors and attachments rather
than single tractor with a single system
of tools. Every tractor in the line was de-
veloped after scientific research and testing
under actual operating conditions showed
the specifications needed for efficiency
and economy.
n Every Harreaer-b4ih tractor is the
u right machine for its particular job.

Library Notes

The Wide House. by Taylor
Caldwell.
In this novel of strong emo
tions and warning personalities.
Taylor Caldwell again presents
stirring and dramatic recrea-
ton Of American life during a
mtinontouS decade. The time of
the book is the 1850's; the scene
tow on the shores of Lake Erie
in northwestern New York state.
To this town early in 1850 came
Jane Cauder and her four chill
dren. jamie was a widow, and
had journeyed from Great Bri-
tain to begin life anew in Amer
lea. She was met in New York
by her cousin Stuart Coleman
and with her family took the long
tedious journey to Grandevflle.
jamie was a matriarch. She tried
to rule her growing family with
an iron hand and in so doing
came into conflict with her eou-
sin Stuart. II is with the strug-
gle between these two strong
personalities that much of the
story is concerned.
But more than that-the novel
is a striking commentary on the
waves of intolerance that swept
over some parts of America In
the 1850's. Grandeville had its
Semitic and anti-Catholic
groups and the surge of bigotry
that swept over the town result
ed in injury and death. The
story deals with the efforts of
Coleman. especially, to prevent
this intolerance and to make the
town, as far as possible, place
where the basic American doc
trines of freedom and demoera-
CIV would be sure to all people.
The story is packed with ac-
ton, overflowing with sharply
drawn characters and filled with
emotion. Few women in contem-
porary fiction are as interesting
as indomitable jamie Cauder-
and her rebellious children,
growing up in the new country.

Roiarians Hear OF
Wartime Duties OF
U. S. Engineers

The wartime duties and re-
sponsibilities of -at-home en-
gineers, who recognize as their
two masters God and tax pay
ers," were reviewed for members
Of the Pascagoula Rotary Club
at the regular luncheon meeting
Wednesday by Ray Ross, chief
executive assistant of the u. S.
Engineers office in Mobile.
"The largest construction job
in the history of mankind is be-
ing done by this group during
the present war;" Mr.. Ross told
Rotarians. "In Mississippi alone
$220,000.000 of construction has
been done and in the entire dis
trict that figure reaches a billion
dollars
Mr.. Ross enumerated construc-
ton which has been done in the
district as l3 ordnance plants, 81
air fields, six general hospitals,
l3 army camps, 26 prisoner-of-
war and internment camps and
nine supply depots. He added
that the Gulf Ordnance plant at
Aberdeen, Miss, is the most eff
ficiently operated of any in the
area.
There is one construction job
about which l can tell you little
because of restrictions but it
covers 800 square miles and the
temperature can be controlled
from 1856 degrees above zero to
70 degrees below" he said. ut
is big enough for the testing of
B-29s and jet propelled planes. >
He told of the handling of
equipment for engineer troops
which amount to $55, 100000 an
nually and of the demolishing of
Camp Tyson in Tennessee from
which 26,0O0,000 feet of lumber
will be salvaged. Mr.. Ross ended
his talk with condemnation of
the attitude of complacency to-
ward priceless liberty" and an
appeal to every citizen to work
toward making this country in
creasingly better.

Letters To The
Editor

Editor,
Chronicle-Star and advertiser.
Dear Sir:
War Veterans and Labor Unions
In my opinion the parents of
every American soldier should
wire or write their Representa-
tive in Congress to support the
bill of Congressman Rankin to
prohibit war veterans from being
required TO join labor unions as
a condition of employment. The
provocation or necessity of hav-
ing to enact such National leg
islation as means of guarantee
ing justice to our battle-scarred
returning soldiers is travesty
on our much-vaunted American
freedom. II an American soldier,
fighting for what he thinks is
American freedom, and after suf-
fering the hardships we know
he has suffered and will suffer,
then upon returning home and
seeking employment in civil life
for a livelihood for himself and
his loved ones is forced to join
some labor union which he does
not want to join ss a prerequisite
to his employment, then to call
this a Free Country is a joke.
| have no fight to make on labor
unions as such. Labor has a per-
feet right to organize if it so de-
sires but has no right whatever
under our American System to a
closed shop. You might just as
well tell a man unless he joins
some certain church or society he
cannot work as to tell him unless
he joins some certain union he
cannot work. Unionism has gone
far afield from the original intent
of Unicnism. Some OF the heads
of organized labor are racketeers
just as much so as AL Capone OF
any other American racketeer,
and such radical racketeering
labor heads in their defiance
even of the Government. and
their extreme demands, are
either digging the graves of all
organized labor, or they are dig
ging the graves in which the re-
mainder of the people of this
nation will be buried,

Clarence Cartmans seaman tlrst
class. who is home on a 35-day
leave is somewhat of veteran
when it comes to diving off OF
sinking ships for he has been
part of the crew of two boats
that went down in japanese war
fare in the Southwest Pacific.
The first time this happened
Seaman Cartman was on a ship
that went down about a year ago
in a battle off the Marshall Is
lands. At that time about a quar-
ter of the crew was lost.
His last experience was as a
member of the USS Little
which sank off Okinawa, May
3 with a loss Of seven dead, 29
missing and SO wounded, out OF
a crew of $40 men.
The Little" with the help OF
combat air patrols had been sue
cessful in driving off several air
attacks, but few Nip planes OF
a group of approximately "a
succeeded in slipping through
the defenses of the ship and com
bat air patrol and registered four
hits in five minutes.
The order to abandon ship was
given shortly after the fourth hit
and the crew took to the water.
The survivors were picked up
by an LIST about three and a
half hours later.
The Little" which was COM
missioned at Seattle, Wash, Aug.
1914, was a veteran of seven
months of Pacific warfare, hav-
ing participated in the shore
bombardment of Two Jima and lie
Jima. At the time of her sink
ing she was doing picket duty
20 miles west of Okinawa.
Cartman enlisted in the Navy
over three years ago and has had
