 Nor did the loss of sight in his right eye, suffered last year as the result of an injury incurred in a football game between service teams at Walnut Ridge Air Field in Ar kansas, halt the Hastings, Mich, stars ambition to become doctor of veterinary medicine and continue in athletics.
 To provide accommodations for his pretty wife, Marie, year-old daughter Sandra Lee and himself. Finkbeiner purchased house trail CT In it at the edge of the Spartan campus lives the little FinEbeiner family.
 Prior to joining the Army in 1922, Finkbeiner was Western Michigans cross-country captain.
 At Michigan State last fall, FGk- beiner competed in cross-country, which prepared him to be high point man for the Spartans during the indor season. He continues to gather points outdoors = broad jumping, pole-vaulting and as member of relay combinations

Pelati, Matchel second base man was outstanding in both games, while the Brasscos' Alex batted 500 for the day with homer and a trio of singles in eight times up. Score:

FARM PROGRAM
PROTESTED
BY BENSON

Warning that the administration
present farm program is a Reputation
of the full production and full employ
ment farm program pledged by the
United States at the Hot Spring con
| ference on food and agriculture II
May, 1913, Elmer A. Benson, chairman
of the National Citizens Political Ac
ton committee, has released copies
of letter he addressed to Clinton
Anderson, secretary of agriculture.
Benson, Minnesota farmer himself
said 1.-THE American farmers want full
farm production, and our workers rec
ognize that full farm production and
full employment are indivisible. We
object to the current practice of pay

Sundays and holidays, while forget

Benson's letter in part says:
Dear Mr.. Anderson:
"The American people are becoming
increasingly alarmed over the admin
istrations present course which, If
continued, can only result in the COM
plete reputation of the goals that it
has pledged itself to achieve-full pro-
duction and full employment on our
farms and in our factories and inter-
national cooperation.
1--WE notice with regret that the Unit
ed States delegation at the Quebec
food conference has offered no posi-
tive practical program for advancing
the goal of full farm production and
that your own speech before the fifth
plenary session has given currency
to the view that our government is
bent ON returning to the old ways of
reduction and scarcity.
"At the Hot Springs conference on
food and agriculture in May of 1913,
the United States agreed with the 9th
er United Nations that concerted ac-
ton over long number of years
would be needed to produce all of the
food that the world needs. 1t was
recognized that the postwar world
would be hungry world, with more

world ill-fed.
"These predictions of worldwide
hunger have been more than fulfilled.
It was, therefore, with great amaze
