FARM SURPLUS SOLUTION

At the heart of the costly farm
problem in the United States is
t h e agricultural surplus. The
problem dates back long before
the war. But since then govern
ment payments to farmers, still
following the wartime incentives
to greater production, have con-
tinued to pile up an excess and in
some crops to m a k it larger.
The immediate need is to reduce
the surplus.
There is a practical long-range
solution, says Prof. John D.
Black of Harvard University. He
advises transferring the surplus
acreage producing the unneeded
crops to the production of foods
for which ready use can be found.
This would furnish better nutri-
ton to millions of the lower-in-
come population and could Danish
malnutrition, he declares. As
this eminent farm economist
views it:
'All this country needs in the
way of a surplus program is a
program for getting consumed
the dairy and o t h er livestock
products that would be produced
on 40 to so million acres of land
now in potatoes, wheat, cotton,
tobacco, and few other crops. The
place to begin is with legislation
to set up programs t h a t will
bring about the increased con-
sumption of dairy and related
livestock products.
His plan proposes a doubling OF
trebling of tn e present school
feeding program. The federal
government a n d local govern
ments would pay the cost. Then
would come adoption of the Aiken
national food allotment plan,
designed to enable the great bulk
Of tn low-income families to
buy their dairy and poultry foods
and meats at half price or close
to it and other foods at around
two-thirds. The cost of the fed
eral governments part in these
programs, ne believes, would be
no greater than that Of the pre-
sent agricultural programs.
This plan, to be sure, may

Maternity Case Rugged.
Childbirth was . gruelling or

woman was due to have her baby,
they wouldn't let her sleep for
three days. She went into labor
from sheer exhaustion. Then they
wouldn't let he eat for three days
after the baby was born. They'd
cut the unnbilical cord with any
old knife or scissors or piece of
glass that was handy. Such rugged
maternity care" killed a lot Of
mothers and more babies.
When the Red nurses showed
that sanitation and decent care
paid of in living babies, they rang
a bell with the women. 1t made
the rest of their program a lot
easier to sell.

still recognize class distinctions.
We got bawled out by oul
