living in a hungry world. Its pop
ulation Is going up at the rate OF
so 900 people a day. The world is
increasing its population by more
than $4,000, 600 people year. The
whole life of most of the peoples
of the world is spent In a desperate
and often unsuccessful scramble to
get enough rice or black bread to
keep body and soul together.
Soil Precious Asset.
The soil of the United States is
one of the most precious assets OF
this world. Yet we are losing too
much of it every year as it washes
away to the sea.
The nature of the problem is now
being dramatized by spectacular
face lifting operations on single
farms. But what is not dramatized
is the glorious job that millions OF
farmers and ranchers are already
doing to save the soil.
The good news of today is that
our losses are being checked and
the farmers and ranchers OF this
country are making new top soil,
BY their spirit and determination,
they are doing the greatest job OF
soil conservation in the world, and
it's time they got credit for it and
the full support of their Govern
ment.
Much credit is due the skilled
guidance of the Soil Conservation
Service and the land grant colleges.
What we need is great awakening
to the immense job that is being
done under their guidance by the
farmers themselves. What is need
ed is a government that really
wants to help them to do the job
which only they can do. At a meet
ing I had with 80 farm editors only
last Saturday, one after another
told the same story: Farmers are
still being told they must survey
whole farms in order to get con-
tour laid out for one field. The
farmers are standing 10 deep in line,
they said, waiting for technical
help. We want less RECOMMENDATION
and more educational and technical
assistance in the field. I propose to
you that we get a national admin
istration which will give them the
help that they want and encourage
the job they are doing.
Food Production Increased.
Our farmers have COMPOUNDED the
prophets of gloom by increasing
their production Of food year after
year. Our job is to encourage, with
all the means at our command
those who are doing this wonderful
Job for our country. With q Gov
eminent which believes In the

and which will not be. constantly
trying to boss them around, we
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1948-09-22

can save our soil and our capacity
to produce abundant food for gen.
erations to come.
The thing that is America-our
spirit, our fundamental freedoms,
our right to believe and think and
work and travel and do as we
please-all these are nurtured by
this abundance of ours. I propose
that we get an administration
which is fundamentally interested
in preserving both the body and
the spirit of our country.
We have the same kind Of COM
handing opportunity and obliga-
ton to conserve our timber, our
fish and wild life. The forests, the
wood lots, the fertile valleys should
abound with birds and wild animals.
Our streams should abound with
fish. With the destruction of for
ests much of this wild life has
already disappeared. Millions Of
people in our country who fish and
hunt for food and pleasure and
exercise have felt the result.
In the forests of this Nation we
originally had 100000, 900 900 board
of feet of lumber. For 200 years we
have been cutting and slashing and
burning this wonderful gift of ma
ture. Today we have little more
than one-quarter left. Much of the
damage was done during the last So
years. In this brief period we re-
duced bur timber reserves by a per
cent. We are now cutting so per
cent more saw timber than is being
replaced. That is a dangerous situa-
ton in a country which has seri-
Gus housing shortage and a serious
paper shortage which affects the
very existence Of our free press.
National Policy Proposed.
I propose that we develop a ma
tional policy which will really save
our forests. Throuh Federal, State
and local cooperation we can plan
a program capable of maintaining
consistent reserve of timber re-
sources. In some sections. fine prog
ress has already been made. In
my own State, we fought through a
Forest Practices Act which I was
proud to sign. This measure pro-
vides free technical advice, service
and marketing facilities for all small
owners who agree to manage their
woodlands scientifically and econom-
ically. 1t is the kind Of legislation
I like. Through education and help,
it encourages q man to increase his
enterprise and so to help the Nation.
In many other States, selective
cutting, tree farms and sustained
yield programs are making notable
progress, without creating monop-
olies on the one hand or ghost towns
on the other. On the West Coast,

Although only 81, Grabiner was

His first introduction to the
Comiskey family came on a Sun
day morning in 1904. He was pass
ing by the old White Sox park and
noticed a man sprinkling sawdust
over wet spots on the field. Young
Harry approached and volunteered
to help. The lone groundkeeper was
Charles A. Comiskey, founder o
the Sox.
From then on the youngster was
with the SoX. He served as usher
