PRODUCE AVAIL
ABLE TO MEET
FOOD NEEDS

Cecil County residents will offset
short supplies of meat, wheat, fats
and oils by consuming nearly H.
900, 900 pounds of the nations bump
er fresh fruit and vegetable crop to
maintain high nutritional standards
this year, it was predicted by lead
ing food distributor.
cFresh fruits and vegetables will
adequately supplement the limited
supplies of many foods now avail
able" said Harvey Baum, head of
A & p Food Stores produce-buying
operations. Increased use of perish
able produce will permit shipment of
other foods to those hunger-ridden
nations now subsisting on daily diets
ranging from 1000 to 1900 calories
as compared with an average of
$500 calories for this country.
Part of the fresh fruits and vege-
tables consumed by Cecil residents
comes from this county's 7,456 farms
and neighboring growers. Large
amounts of perishables are received
from other sections to meet the coun-
tvs year-round needs. The develop
ment of more efficient distribution
methods, Baum said, has helped
double fresh fruit and vegetable con-
sumption in the past 25 years and
makes possible a greater section of
foods necessary for well-rounded
let andd higher standard of living.
pacinp hia estimates on Drelimin in
airy indications of food production
and consumption for 1916, Baum
said that each person in the country
will eat an average of 1895 pounds
of food this year. This represents a
10 per cent increase owe tire 1935-39
average, with fresh fruits and vege-
tables accounting for nearly one
third of the food to be consumed he
added.

A Special Day

Because recommendation Oft
en- dims the true sentiment of a special
dav, especially a comparatively new
one, it may be easy to overlook the real
spirit Of observance of Fathers day.
1t is quite proper to set aside one
time in the year in honor of the head
of the house. He is the major contri-
butor of things material to the great
est of all forms of society-the home.
And fathers, like everyone else, often
need a bit of boosting of the ego SO
convenient through remembrance of
the day.
This year, as in the immediate past
ones, the spirit of the occasion takes on
deeper seriousness as we remember the
thousands of fathers forever absent
from home because of the war. Many
never saw or knew their young sons
and daughters, It is a deep obligation
of the mother to impress upon their
youthful minds the Importance of the
supreme sacrifice their father made
trying to make the world a better place
for them. There is no better day than
today to recount the glorious story OF
unselflshness- represented by his Pur.
pie Heart medal.

the convention-backed regular can
didate, Judge Joseph P. Mccarthy.
LaFollette and Stassen are or
opposite sides of the continuing de-
bate over foreign .,olicy and some
of Stassen's friends had thought
earlier that he might attempt to
swing sentiment toward Mccarthy
just as he tried to drum up Ne
braska support for Griswold on the
grounds that the latter represented
a broader international viewpoint
than Butler.
Taft May Bid
Senator Robert Taft of Ohio, who
says he isn't a presidential candi-
date but admits he wouldn't run
away from the 1948 COP nominal
ton, has become involved in the
primary to the extent of having
written a letter before the state
convention expressing a preference
for LaFollette.
But Taft's friends say he isn't
likely to nudge further into the
Wisconsin contest and they do not
expect him to write any more let
tiers %indorsing primary candidates.
Taft's colleague, Senator Arthur
Vandenberg of Michigan, who
might be agreeable if the Repub-
llcanS want to run him in 1948, has
his own reelection contest this

year. He has shown no sign Of
taking sides elsewhere.
Dewey Faces Race
Similarly, Gov. Thomas E,
Dewey faces a race for reelection
in New York. With Dewey re
garded as a certain candidate for
the Presidential nomination again
if he wins in New York, he isn't
likely to gum matters up in his
own hot contest by any noticeable
activity elsewhere.
In Ohio, Former Gov. John w.
Bricker, who is discussed as a
potential 1913 head of the Repub-
lican presidential ticket on which
he held second place last year,
has his own race for the senate
against Senator James w. Huff
man, Democratic incumbent.
Bricker apparently is busy enough
at home so that he will not be
backing favorites in other states.
Gov. Earl Warren of California,
who assured himself of reelection
by winning both the Republican
and Democratic nominations,
would be in a position to strike out
elsewhere if he chose. But friends

The Atomic Proposal

The proposal of the United States
to destroy it's atomic bombs and share
the secrets of atomic power for peace
full use if the world will set up adequate
safeguards against this weapon in war
is the most generous offer ever made
by a sovereign nation in behalf of in
ternational peace.
Today, as in the past, we are the
first to point the way to a lasting peace
In Mr.. Baruch's bold plan for world
control of atomic energy is also real
sacrifice because the American people
alone now have the "know how and
resources to produce this terrible
weapon. Others may learn, in fact Rus
STA is working hard on it, but we hold
the tremendous advantage of the nio-
neer.
Through the plan, this nation shows
that it's moral concepts have kent mace
with its scientific greatness. We offer
no barter for use of the atom other
than the assurance that no outlaw
country will use it to ~annihilate other
people.
But is the offer opportune? There
we have our doubts. With the democ-
racies and communism arguing over
the dead body of fascism, the nations
of the world may not be ready for COM
plete trust in each other. Many matters
political must be settled before full and
free consideration may be given this
unprecedented proposal.
If the world scene eventually rights
itself acceptance of the proposal may
be possible. 1t can turn this weapon OF
destruction into an unreasonable force
Tor good. 1t may outlaw all major wars
Meantime, we have stated our posi-
ton and from now on caution and pre-
caution should be the watchword.
