Father Swears in
Son as Naval
Reserve Ensign

Captain John c. Webb, Sr., U.s.
Mr., RTC. /, Gaithersburg, swore
in his own son, John C. Jr., as an
Ensign in the u. S. Naval Re-
serve this week in ceremonies at
Potomac River Naval Command
headquarters, in Washington.
Captain Webb is a special as
sistant for Naval Reserve to the
Comptroller, Bureau of Naval Per-
sonnel, at the Navy's Arlington
Annex, in Washington, DC.
Ensign Webb, is "a. At present
he is on inactive duty awaiting
orders for active duty. He is a
former enlisted man having en-
listed in 1916 and served aboard

road transportation, canning and
processing and paint and varnish
manufacturing in the past Is years.
Labor saving from tractors alone
has contributed greatly to the
greater ouput per farm worker, the
Committee explained. The num-
ber of tractors on Maryland farms
rose from practically none in 1909
to over 10000 by 1852. Other
equipment such as harvesters, hay
making machines and milking
machines have helped reduce farm
drudgery and labor requirements.
The extension of rural electrified
ton has made much mechanization
possible.
Cthe factors contributing to in
creased yields per acre and per
animal have been hybrid seed, crop
rotations, application of fertilizers
and lime, good management prac-
tices which save soil and water
more effective control of pests AMI
diseases, better livestock rations
and better livestock breeds.
The decline in farm land from
five to four million acres in Mary
land which took place during the
period of increasing output was
reported last. week by the Commit
tee. Farm land has disappeared
due to federal and state use, sub
urbanization industrialization, use
of land for roads, erosion and de-
ple+ion and other causes.
The Committee for Conservation
Now was organized early this year
under sponsorship of the MARYLAND
Farm Bureau, State Grange, Mary
land Chapter, Friends of the Land,
Maryland Association of Soil Con-
servation Districts and Maryland
Bankers Association to accelerate
conservation farming in the state.
It's reports on land loss and produc-
tivity increase are part of a con-
t;nuing study on factors involved
in land management.

Farm Productivity Is Up
Despite Land Losses Here

An 80 per cent increase in farm
productivity since 1909 has been
the Maryland farmers answer tc
the pressure created by the loss OF
over. of over a million acres of
farm land in the past 40 years
Maryland's Committee for Con-
servation Now reported today as a
supplement to it's recent report on
the states land loss.
The productivity increase has re-
quired teamwork from city bust
nesss, factory workers and agricul-
tural scientists who have provided
q continuing flow of tractors
trucks, gasoline, fertilizer, feed and
better techniques to help farmers
produce bigger yields per acre
more meat and milk per animal and
more eggs per chicken.
AS a result, farms today are
producing 63 per cent more food
and fibre with 19 per cent less labo,
than in 1909. Those figures arc
based on national records an
rounced by the U. S. Department
of Labor. The average quantity
produced by each farm worker de-
termines productivity.
Increased productivity means, fol
example, that for every 27 bushels
of corn produced per farm worke,
in 1909, he is raising so bushels
today using slightly more land bu:
the same amount of labor. Or, for
every $50 pounds of pork produced
in 1909, the farm worker is pro-
ducing 275 pounds now.
The productivity increase has
been most welcome in the past anC
will be even more vitally needed il
future years, the Committee point
ed out. Demands upon agriculture
can be expected to increase be-
cause of such factors as continued
land loss accompanied by increas.
ing population.
Output per farm worker has in
creased most rapidly since tht
1905, the committee reported
Since 1885 it has risen SIS per cent
OF two-thirds of the total in abou
one-third of the 40year period.
Until 1885, farm productivit.
had been tagging behind produc
tivity in industry, but it's increas
since then has almost indenticall.

JOE LOUIS BLASTS PGA FOR
BAR OF NEGRO GOLFERS,

and Eural Clark, Los Angeles pro-
fessionals.
The usually mild-speaking Louis
denounced the rule as American
and declared PEA President, Hor-
ton Smith, was another Hitler"
in enforcing it. Horton Smith be-
lieves in the White Race like Hitler
believed in the super-race, Louis
said. Smith himself was not avail
able for comment.
Louis, now 81 told reporters that
it was the first time that he per-
sonally had experienced racial dis
elimination in sports. He said he
understood the San Diego Commit
tee expected to clear about $4,000
from the Tournament for the bene-
fit of crippled children. "T'll give
them double that amount if they
will cancel the Tournament, Louis
said. The Tournament was set to
start Thursday morning.
The former Champion also dis
closed that he had long been aware
of the PEA rule which has been
causing Negro players trouble for
years and said that he came here
intending to bring it out in the
open.
The Tournament Committee is
reported to have invited Louis to
play as an amateur before learning
of the ban against Negro players.
However, Louis declared he would
remain with Spiller and Clark I'M
til some one connected with the
PEA told them they were not
wanted
Louis said golf was the last
sport with the color line, and sug-
gested that the PEA waive its rule,
at least to the extent of allowing
some outstanding players to prove
themselves, and cited the example
of Jackie Robinson opening the
gates of professional baseball.
