In the deoth Of Loo Green the school children OF
Mount Clemens have lost both stouneh friend ond

teIIieent and cultured acquaintance.
OF far more importance. however is the imprint
she hos left upon the life Of the community as
whole.
For 81 years this cheerful. capable and seIfIess
individual dedicated herself to the dissemination OF
knowledge. During 43 years Of that period she work
ed untirineIy in the eIossrooms Of Moeomb county;
for SO years in the Donaldson school alone.
UnquestnobIy Loo Green's influence was felt
oeuteIy by the 1000 or more pupils (mony OF them
now arondporents) whose lives she touched directly
during their most readily formative years. No one
will ever know how nnony other thousands indirectly
felt the impoet Of her personality through those pu-
pIs in whose heorts and minds she had instiIed not
only the hordwon knowledge Of the centuries but the

Her life serves as monument to the countless,

. BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTON .

DuSlIleSS SITUATION dIter enu OF
the war in Europe.
One thing certain is that the
farmer himself doesn't have to
worry about farm SURPRISES for
two full calender years after the
declared end of the war. The
reason is that the government
has assured farmers 30 per cent
of parity loans or better on 1876
farm products considered essen
tial to the war effort.
In establishing these support
prices. Congress took the line
that it was necessary to give the
farmers sufficient incentive to
produce all this stuff and to
make sure that the bottom
would not drop out of the mar
ket when the war was over. as
1t did in 1919, causing the finan-
cial ruin of hundreds of thou
sands of farmers.
AS to what the government
will use for money in making
loans at these support prices for
two years after the end of the
war, there will have to be addi-
tional appropriations when lend
lease and military buying end.
But as Congress has already au-
thorized this expenditure, few
people have any doubt that
there will be the necessary ap-
preparations when needed, even
If the cost goes to a couple of
billion dollars year.
What the government does
with all the SURPRISES and stock
piles left over at the end of the
war is something else again. The
government is now authorized
to sell SURPRISES abroad at world
market prices, taking a loss if
domestic prices are higher.
Many war SURPRISES are even
now being sold back to the
trade.
But the real solution TO the
surplus problem is expected to
be in increased home consump-
ton, and that brings you right
back to the frequently express
ed need for maintaining full
employment to keep up pur-
chasing power.
IF SURPRISES COME, so
WILL CONTROLS
If SURPRISES do get out of hand
couple of years after the war,
the only solution now known
will be some form of marketing
or production control and--cur-
iously enough this is just
where the Roosevelt admins
tration came in IL years ago
when there was too much farm
production and too little con-
sumption.
On the five basic crops -
wheat, cotton, corn, rice and to-
bacco-the framework for mar.
keting controls established in
the early days of the New Deal
is still on the books. These con-
trolls haven't been used during
the war-except on tobacco, to
keep it from crowding off the
land other more needed farm
products.
But if, before the May Of any
year, (the Secretary Of Agricul-
ture shall determine that the
supply of any of the basic farm
crops is greater than the sum OF
the domestic consumption plus
export plus a 80 per cent re-
serve, he may order vote
among producing farmers on
whether to establish crop con-
trolls. If more than two-thirds of
the farmers voting decide in ia
vor of controls, then they 60 In

"The capture of Two Jima was
considered essential by those in
whose hands the destiny of our
nation lies," Gen. Smith is quoted
in the June issue of Cosmopolitan
magazine as saying. "The cost of
winning this objective was no
doubt weighed carefully against
the Importance of having this is
land as an operating base. 1t is
not within our province to evalu-
ate the cost in money, time, equip
