CHECK ON FIRE LOSSES


George L. Schuster, director of
the Delaware Agricultural Exten-
sion Service, calls upon all Della
ware farmers and their families to
enlist in the fight on fire which
last year destroyed more than
ss5. 900, 900 of farm property and
snuffed out almost 1000 lives.
Stating that the fire curve contin-
ues to surge upward to an all-time
high this year, he urges farmers to
take time to eliminate the common
causes of fire during Fire Proven
tion Week, October 6-12, sponsor
ed by the National Fire Protection
Association. Pointing out that 80
percent of the fires can be prevent
ed by eliminating the common
causes, Director Schuster declares,
$50 many times we have seen the
result of a lifetime of work go up
in smoke in few minutes-all due
to the failure to exercise ordinary
care" Losses would drop immed-
lately, he says, if farmers would:
1. Protect all buildings with ade-
quate lightning rods.
2. Clean and keep clean heating
systems, fireplaces and fiues.
8. Check electric systems for
adequacy of load, and repair or
replace worn cords and equipment.
4. Cover roofs of all farm build
ings with fire-resistant material.

search their farms for scrap metal
to ease the current shortage of
scrap for producing steel. The pro-
duction of farm machinery and
other metal products has been
slowed by the serious lack of scrap
iron and steel. Every ingot of
steel is half scrap metal. Although
scrap collected from farms will not
go exclusively into the manufac-
ture of farm machinery, it will in
directly help increase farm mach
inery output. Scrap from farms
can be sold to local metal dealers
or to farm machinery dealers.

LEGUME SEED HARVEST

Early estimates indicate that
this years legume seed harvest is
falling short of the goals of 95
million pounds of red clover and 80
million pounds of alfalfa. Farmers
are assured that every pound har-
vested is needed for planting newt
year. There is still time in Della
ware to harvest some seed. Be-
sides the market price for alfalfa
and red clover seed, farmers have
the benefit of seed harvesting pay
ments under the Agricultural Con-
servation program. Farmers should
check with their county AGA Of
flee to get the harvesting pay
ments under the program.

final and absolute control vest
cd in the political bureau of
ii members, of which Stain
is one. The Russian concept
is completely opposed TO free
dom, he said, with leaders tax
exempt, receiving discounts in
retail stores of as much as 60
per cent and enjoying other
privileges not accorded the av-
erage man.
'In it's expansion program,
Mundt said, Russia has adopt
ed three formulas: First and
preferred is absorption, as in
Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia !:
second is adoption, by putting
adopted sons in authority to
pave the way for absorption,
as in Poland, Albania, and Yu-
goslavia, where the program is
nearly complete; third is assim-
ilation by sending in political
and economic missionaries, as
is done in Czechoslovakia, Ro-
mania and Bulgaria.
Reds to Attack only Weak
With all their confid e n e,
Mundt said, Russian leaders
realize five important deficien-
cies,s including lack OF atomic
bombs, inadequate navy, an ar
my lacking mechanization, an
antiquated air force, and lack
Of machine tools.
"No country lacking all these
is going to court trouble with
a country that does possess
them,' he said. Mundt deran-
ded that without delay we
discontinue our silly and suici-
dial double standard political
morality" which permits Rus
sia to open consul offices in
this country but excludes the
American consulates in Russia ;
grants the Russian embassy in
Washington second class mail
ing priviligese but gets none
for the American embassy in
Moscow and permits Russians
in this country all the free
doms any and all of our citizens
enjoy, tho none of these privi-
leges are granted Americans in
Russia.
Urges II. S. Red Conference
"And | would like soon to
see a meeting of the big two
- Stain and Truman-with
the British absent" Mundt de-
clared. "They could talk bet
ter man to man and reach a
better understanding without
endangering British interests
in any way.
81 would want Truman to
meet Stain realistically and to
bargain realistically. If | were
Truman | would tell Stain he
could write his own ticket, but
whatever ticket he wrote would
apply equally in America and
in Russia. Whatever Stain
wanted to do in this country
we would have the right to
do in his country. And Stain
couldn't afford to turn it down,
for Russians need our help far
more than we need theirs"

Rep. Mundt Predicts
That Russia Will
Strike

Military intervention by Rus
sia in Turkey, Iran, or some
other adjoining country within
four months unless the Truman
administration adopts a firmer
policy toward the Stain regi-
me was predicted yesterday by
Rep. Karl E. Mundt (R. S. d.
in an address before the Execu-
tives Club of Chicago in Hotel
Sherman.
"The policy of appeasement
we have carried out from Yal-
ia down to the present is the
surest way to get involved in
war with Russia" Mundt as
serted.
Russian leaders are conf
dent to the point of conceited
cockiness, the South Dakota
congressman said; they are
convinced Russia made the pri-
mary contribution to allied vic
tory and are embarked on an
expansion program that can be
checked only by abandoning
appeasement in Washington, D.
&C.
Friends of U. S. Discredited
Mundt charged the "pusilan-
imous policy dictated by do
mestic political expediency' al
ready has cost this country
it's best friends in Russia men
who warned that the United
States would not bow, TO Rus
sian demands have been so
discredited by "our cowardly
attitude" that they have lost
! influence and in some instances
have been removed from office.
Mundt's conclusions were bas-
cd on information gained as
member of a congressional COM
mittee that spent two months
in Europe, half of that time
in study of Russia and Rus
sian dominated territory. He
said the committee Investigate
ing united nations relief and
rehabilitation needs was shown
only the best of Russian build
ings, factories, and farms until
he expressed the opinion that
"UNRRA should be from Rus
sia to u.s."
"Then," he said, I'VE were
taken south Of the tracks, and,
believe, we were the first
American committee to see how
most of the Russians really
live"
Communist Party in Control
The old communist concept
of helping the common man
has been abandoned in Russia,
Mundt said, and now the coun-
try, completely totalitarian, is
dominated by the Communist
party of 100000 members in
