CORN LOAN PROGRAM

Many Maryland farmers are ex.
pected to think twice" while con.
;idering the advantages offered them
N the 1914 corn loan program, &C.
,ording to Jos. H. Blandford, Mary.
and AAA Chairman. Although not
many Maryland farmers have partici.
)ated in government corn loan pro.
grams in years past, a much larger
lumber of farmers have shown inter
st in the current plan.
The corn loan rate, which is set at
Sill a bushel for No. grade OF
better, is the highest in the country,
With but one exception. Eligible far
mers have until May 81, 1915 to
make application for the loan.
There have been indications that
he Commodity Credit Corporation
will be willing to purchase the corn
-nder laon on September 1, 1945, at
10 cents bWshel above the loan
ate or for total of $121 a bushel.
The current market price has been
around S1.09 bushel in Maryland.
Farmers interested in obtaining a
1914 corn loan, said Blandford,
hould first consult their county AAA
committees. Arrangements will then
,e made to inspect the storage facili-
lies on the farms and take official
samples of the corn for grade and
moisture determinations. The far
ner then receives his money from the
.orn loan as soon as the necessary
papers for the transaction and APP
prevail have been obtained or execu-
led. Generally this Is done in COOP
ration with local bank.
The Sill bushel loan rate APP
plies to all Maryland corn grading
No. 8 or better with not more than
5 per cent moisture. Reduced rates
.pply on corn with moisture content
g high as 20 " per cent.

expansive economy and We can see
no reason why the need being 80
great there should be any undue
rivalry between us. We believe that
the foundations OF peace must be
world prosperity and good neigh
borliness.
Collaboration Is Urged.
That where science has placed
such potential abundance before the
human race we should collaborate
to take advantage of 1t rather than
scramble and fight for larger in
dividual shares which only results
in an immense increase in poverty.
We recognize that our immediate
task Is not easy. Many man in
Britain returning from the war finds
his home blitzed and his business
ruined. He has to start afresh and
it's a tough proposition.
AS a country we are just like that
man. We went all out to win the
war and now have to start afresh.
Like him we are facing the future
with courage and determination to
win through. We have not stood
up to our enemies for six years to
be beaten by economics.
look forward to an era of an
increasing cooperation and friend
ship between the u. S. A. and Great
Britain-not as being an exclusive
friendship but as a contribution to
the knitting together with all peoples
through the United Nations Organi-
zation in the bonds of peace.
In our internal policies each will
follow the course decided by the
peoples will. You will see us en-
barking on projects of nationaliza-
ton; on wide all-embracing schemes
of social insurance designed to- give
security to the common man. We
shall be working out planned

1t is more important that we
should understand each other and

differ from our own. 1t is essential
If we are to build up a peaceful
world that we should have the
widest liberation recognizing that
our aim is not uniformity but unity

Further, in the world today we be-
lieye, as do most people in Britain,
that one must plan the economic
activities OF the country If we are to
assure the common man a fair deal.
One further word. You may think
that the Labor Party consists solely
OF wage earners. 1t Is our pride
that we draw the majority of our
members from the ranks of wage
earners and many of our ministers
have spent long years working with
their hands in the coal mines, the
factory or in transportation.
But our party today Is drawn
from all classes Of society-profes-
sional men, businessmen and what
are sometimes called the privileged
classes. The old school tie can still
be seen on the Government benches
1t is really pretty good cross Sec
ton of the population.
Learned Facts of Poverty.
You may ask why do people from
the well-to-do classes belong to ou1
party? May refer to my own ex-
perience: Forty years ago as young
man studying law, just down from
oxford University, l visited for the
first time my constituency, Lime
house-a very poor district in East
London. I learned from 1t first
hand the facts of poverty in our
great cities. I became convinced
that we must build our society or
a juster foundation.
The result was that I joined the
Socialist movement and eventually
after many years of striving l find
myself Prime Minister of Great
Britain. The reasons that impelleo
me to join the Labor movement are
the same that actuated so many OF
the members Of my party, especially
the great number OF young men
from the fighting services.
What is our attitude towards for.
eign affairs? We believe that W.
