St0te Societies
History Of Illinois Club;
Conference Ball Planned
By Mark Roberts

The nonpartisan nature of
the Illinois State Society was
briefly In jeopardy last night
when the group met in the
Shoreham Hotel.
Just 100 years ago in 1854, with
the election Of President Frank
lin Pierce-So research shows
the first Illinois organization in
Washington was formed. But
the nonpartisan historians were
dismayed to learn that this
group was called the Illinois
Democratic Club.
With politics causing a mass
exodus Of Democrats in 1850
from Washington, an Illinois
Republican club took over-with
Abraham Lincoln as a member.
And so the Illinois groups
name shifted with the political
tides until 1919. Early records
have strayed. so no one knows
what went on before 1919. This
kind Of record keeping would
bring catastrophe in the Illinois
metropolis. Chicago, home Of the
largest mail-order houses in the
world.
But in 1919 the political clubs
merged into one nonpartisan
society, one of the few with per-
mission to use the States official
seal.
Last night the Illinois Society
assured nonpartiSan Tooth
anniversary by inviting the two
Illinois senators-Senator Dirk
sen, Republican, and Senator
Douglas. Democrat - who we're
to speak. After the speeches.
dancing was scheduled.
Now the society shows it's
nonpartisanship, not only with
the usual dances but also with
an emergency fund for Illi-
noisans in a temporary finan-
cial jam. This fellowship fund
is guarded by the society's
president.

Communist Warships

Reported Not Hostile
BY she Assoei4ted Pres.

PEARL HARBoR. Oct. 21.-
Communist warships have been
contacted in the Pacific but have
shown no hostile intent, the
commander In chief of the
United States Pacific Fleet said
yesterday.
Admiral Felix B. Stump de-
clared at a news conference that
none Of the Communist warships
or submarines has acted in a
hostile manner. He didn't
identify the Communist craft,
but he obviously referred to
Russia.
The admiral indicated the
Communist vessels, which he
said have been sighted through
out the Pacific, were unaware
they had been seen, thus sug-
gesting the contacts were made
by United States submarines.
"We constantly observe move
ments of vessels in different
parts of the Pacific, submarines
and various types of craft whom
we have identified as Commu-
nists." he said.

Census Brings
Farm Records
.Up To Date

The Bureau of the Census, serv-
ing Uncle Sam as bookkeeper.
brings the Nations farm record
book up to date in october and
November with the 1854 Census of
Agriculture.
Robert w. Burgess. census di-
rector, says, I'VE will get records
of production, take inventory of
our farm resources, and record
major items of farm income and
expenses" He points out that just
as individuals, modern farmers
need to keep records
Progressive farmers can COM
pare items of income and expense
from their own records with av-
erageS of such items from groups
records to find how they can i'm
prove their own operations. Census
figures by counties offer farmers
statistics for groups against which
the individual can compare some
of his own figures.
One way the nation uses the
census records is to answer ques-
tions about production. Burgess
points out, IF Uncle Sam wants to
know how much oil seed he has -
and how much oil he can produce
from seed crops - he turns to his
census farm record book.
The Census Bureau has taken
farm inventory every five years
since 1920. Between 1920 and the
first complete farm census in 1850,
the inventory came every 10 years.
Farmers have been urged to CO.

Tree Planting Needs
To Be Expended

North Carolina folks will find
1t practicable to plant their less
productive land with trees this
fall and winter, according to John
L. Gray, in charge of extension
forestry.
Planting trees on a large scale is
one crop that does not raise the
question of present surpluses or
the prospect of strict future con-
trolls, Gray emphasized in request
ing all county agents to encourage
their farmers to plant more acres
in woodland.
Seeding supplies will be espe-
cially plentiful this year with 80
million trees available compared
to 18 million last year. Planting is
only one phase of a timber pro-
duction enterprise, yet it is con-
sidered one of the best entering
wedges in getting farmers started
in timber cropping and protection
Gray says farmers are not order
ing their fair share of the seeding
supply. He pointed out that al
though they own half of all the
timberland, plus an increasing
amount of idle open land in the
state, last year they and other
non-industrial private owners or
dered less than half of the seed
lings shipped - about 1928 out
of 18 million.
Although urging that farmers
take advantage of the opportunity
of getting free seedlings, the eX-
tension forester said it would also
be to the farmers advantage to
buy on their own when the supply
of free Seeding is exhausted.
