ing Director Of PAIA's Agricultural
Conservation Programs Branch.
Born in Alabama in 1898, Mr..
CraWley has been actively engaged
IN farming all his life. He still
owns and operates land which was
farmed by his father, producing
livestock, cotton, peanuts, corn,
and other crops.
Mr.. Crawley first entered public
service in 1888 as an AAA COM
munity committeeman in Pike
County He was appointed to the
Alabama AAA State Committee in
1885, and has served as Chairman

How u. S. Farmers Help shape
Foreign Policy
American farmers help shane
foreign policy about like the way a
good fuliback helps shape a foot
i. ball team, A. Rex Johnson, Assis-
tant Director Of the Office of Fore
ign Agricultural Relations, U. s.
Department Of Agriculture, recent
" told a meeting of the American
Country Life Association at Berea
College, Berea, Kentucky.
Mr.. Johnson described at least
four ways in which farmers help
shape foreign policy:
1. Through the tremendous food
shipments made possible by the
splendid production record of u. s..
agrtculture-the most spectacular
way;
z. Through. sharing-by means Of
the Governments program of interI
national collaboration in agriCul-
ture-U. S. technical knowledge
with farmers Of other countries, to
stimulate production of food and
other agricultural products which
those countries and the U. S. both
need;
3. Through representation of
American agriculture at the con-
ference table of international ne
gOtiatiOn and in the far-fung mec-
hanism Of international negotiation
and trade;
4. Through influencing foreign
policy lin their attitudes and
through their votes.
Pointing out that there has sell
dom has been a war in modern his
tory in which shortage Of food was
rot one OF its courses, Mr.. Johnson
said: by helping feed this cOun-
try wei, so that our standard Of
living is a goal which others seek
to copy, by helping to expand the
tWO-Way trade Of the U. S so that
we can continue to sell sizeable
amounts Of agricultural products
abroad, by sharing our scientific
knowledge with farmers Of other
nations, and BY understanding the
way people live in other countries
and the traditions and aspirations
Of those people-by these means
can American farm families con-
tinue to make an outstanding con

The large audience which last |
night attended the orchestral con-
cert of the American Music Festival
In the National Gallery Of Art ac-
corded an enthusiastic reception to
five novelties on the program. Pre-
sented by Richard Bales at the
head Of the National Gallery Or
chestra, they included "Digressions
for Strings, op. A." by Mabel Dan
iels, who rose from her seat In the
auditorium to share the applause
with Mr.. Bales.

viola which was played by George
Wargo with his usual proficiency.
Quiet Music for Strings, op. IS,
by Gardner Read, winner of a 81 900
prize offered by the New York Phil
harmonic Orchestra for his first
symphony in 1887, contains wealth
of beautiful sound. An adroit mix
ture of color suggested ecstatic con-
temptation, the impression being
enhanced by an occasional passage
given to one or another instrument
for emphasis. Ulysses Kay's Brief
Elegv for Oboe and Strings" was
the third of these works which re-
ceived their world premiere on this
occasion. It is lovely in contours
and is written with an understand
ing of the oboes potentialities as a
solo instrument. Leonard Shlfrtn's
performance was distinguished by
beauty of tone and fine phrasing.
The concert began with Eric Dela-
marter's jolly "Huckleberry Finn
Overture" directed by Mr.. Bales
with vim and gusto. This and
"Chorale" from Godfrey Turner'S
Trinity Concerto" were given their
first performance here. Both pieces
made a liberal use of the brass.

Hannikainen Recital Heard.
The recital of Ilmari Hannikainen,
pianist, in the Phillips Gallery yes

oratura soprano. who shared his
program without having been previ-
ously announced. A professional
opera singer, Miss Piltti presented,
among others, songs by Mr.. Han
nikainen.
Time permitted only portion of
the recital to be heard; enough
however. to appreciate the singing
quality of the pianist's touch. 1t
was notable in Bach's "Andante in
D Major" and in the two Brahms
songs which he accompanied. They
were played with a sympathy and
the accomplishment Of soloist.
Nevertheless, the requirements Of
power in Bach's prelude and Fugue

resiliency of Mr.. Hannikainen's s
touch, changing its character to a
hammer like blow.
Miss Piltti was not fortunate in
her selection of Brahms I'm den
Beeren" as an Introductory number,
although its tessitura suited her
high-pitched voice. The soprano
has brilliancy of delivery which
belongs rather to the operatic stage.
Her singing of Brahms Die Main
acht," which gave an idea of her
pleasing middle register, made
more favorable impression.

THE HISTORY OF
THE AUTOMOBILE

The history of the automobile is
much older than we might suppose.
1t is on record that the first patent
for the horseless carriage was taken
out in 1859 by one named Moore.
He had so much faith in his inven-
ton, at that time, that he sold all
his own and his neighbours horses.
AS Moore was busily engaged in the
sale of horses a French inventor
named Cugnot invented a three
wheeled steam drive automobile. At
that time the roads in France were
so bad that the vehicle overturned
the first time it was tried out.
1t is surprising to note that at
that time the military authorities
were quick to realize the posi-
bilities of a mechanical vehicle, and
Monsieur Cugnot was commissioned
to make truck to draw heavy
The first assenger-carrying auto
mobile was built 5by Trevithick and
it travelled at the unheard-of speed
of miles per hour It could also
climb grades at four miles per hour.
The early inventors were hindered
not only in lack of funds but also
by unfavorable legislation. The
horse dealers, greatly in the ma
jority did everything possible to dis
