courages small farm enterprise.
I'VE must never again permit
farm families who are doing a
good job of farming to be bank
rupt, evicted, and broke, " he said
in Saint Paul.
Mr.. Stassen's proposal is in line
with the thinking of more than
one respected farm economist. 1t
remains to be seen how it could
be worked out. In executing it,
safeguards against bureaucracy
and political manipulation would
have to be set up. Mr.. Stassen
says this can be done. He is an
experienced administrator and
should know whereof he speaks.
Essentially, farms-large or
small-are the prime source of
food which the world needs.
Additionally, farming is way
of life which must be protected
in the interest of all other modes
of living.

FLA NOTES
By R. W. Harris, Advisor

By R. W. Harris, Advisor
The FFA-FHA barn dance
held in the high school ag shop
last Friday night was quite a
success in spite of inclement
weather.
The shop was decorated as a
barn, with lanterns for lights
and a throne" of baled hay and
sacked feed for the King and
Queen farmer.
High spot of the evening was
the picking of the l947-4S King
and Queen Farmer. After care
full consideration of costumes and
other qualifications, Jim Lahr,
master of ceremonies, announced
that the Judges had picked Bev-
erly Anderson, as Queen a n d
Jerry Show as King. The Queen
was then crowned by Steve Bar
Gus, president of the FLA, while
young Show received his crown
from Sheila Wilson, president of
the FHA.
Lunch was served by the FHA,
under the direction of their ad-
visor, Miss Chinadle.
The second annual FLA tur-
key rattle came to very success
full conclusion Tuesday evening
of last week, with the drawing
of the name of Mark Harwood
for first prize and Lloyd Tatsey
for second. Both received fine
dressed birds, weighing 20 and
II pounds respectively, dressed.
1t was quite a coincidence that
both these winners had bought
their tickets from Jim Lahr. In

TO SAVE The FAMILY FARM

''There never need be again an
agricultural depression in Am
erica"
This statement, made in Saint
Paul by Harold E. Stassen on the
eve of his departure on a dele
gate-seeking trip to Colorado and
the South, expresses the convic-
ton of many persons. 1t is goal
on which all can agree-even the
former Minnesota Governors
political opponent.
What steps are there to assure
that agriculture will never suffer
a disastrous decline? Is it a mat
ter of Federal or State legislation
and assistance, or can the farm
ers take care of it themselves?
Mr.. Stassen believes that the
United States Government should
act. He has stated he will urge a
strong agricultural plank in the
Republican Party's 1948 plat
form. He is willing to let others
determine the size and shape of
the plank, but he wants to have
quite a bit to say about its core.
The basis of Mr.. Stassen's pro-
gram is a guaranteed floor on the
income of family-sized farms.
This income approach should be
of a definite minimum nature and
should be considered the agricul-
tural parallel of the minimum
wage and the social security for
labor" he says. But he hastily
adds, 1T should not extend to
the vast commercial farms, which
must stand on their own feet as
business enterprises
At first glance, the proposed
farm income floor looks like an
other subsidy. Mr.. Stassen does
not dispute this. He is not fussy
about the terms by which it shall
be known so long as the plan as
sures a reasonable income for

Local Basketball News
I guess l spoke q little too soon
about the grand performances Of
the Wheatley "WhiE Kids." Wed
nesday they ran against q stone
wall in the "ROck Spring Spark
lers" team which averages around
six foot two inches in height. The
Sparklers completely dominated
the game with their smooth ball
handling. It can be said, however,
for the Wheatley team; that they
never gave up the fight and tried
continuously TO overcome the
Sparkler's advantage in height.
Halle will again attempt TO up
set the "WhiE Kids" Friday night.
The game should prove to be quite
a contest, since the Halle team
seems to have improved and wants
to win this game more than any
other contest. The "WhiE Kids" in
addition have been of form in their
last performances. II this lack Of
regular form persists Friday, Halle
will have more than an even chance
to exc out q win.
