Rock Creek is one of the many
parks in the National Park Sys-
tenn, set aside by Congress in
1890 for the enjoyment of all
the people. AS the population of
the Nations Capital doubles and
quadruples, Rock Creek becomes
even more precious and neces-
sary. With a mechanical civiliza-
ton such as ours constantly
crowding in, it is more vital than
ever that a person have room to
stretch, to think long thoughts
under a spreading tree, to watch
the graceful soaring and swoop-
ing of a hawk.
There are those who cannot
believe this, who want to con-
struct a four or six lane speedway
through this Rock Creek Park
that they now visualize only as
so much idle, wasted acreage.
This won't interfere with the pic
mic areas or ball diamonds, they
say. They don't mention what 1t

say, make it a smooth polished
park. They pass over the loss of
the fragile wildflowers, magnifi-

the constant roar of fast moving
truck and automobile traffic is
also missing from their glowing
accounts.

VI. Why will 1t work?

o. Why Will 1T work.
A Because this is a program for farmers by farmers.
"a We asked for, and got sound advice from hundreds
of farm leaders and thousands of farmers everywhere.
This program gets at the root of the problem on a prac-
teal, non-politcal basis. 1t contains no doubb-talk or
bureaucratic theories. II is the most business-Iike, down.
to-earth approach to the business of farming and market
ing of farm products this country has ever had.
n. Why is it a more practical program
". than others thathave been offered?
A Because it is especially tailored to today's peace
a. time conditions. 1t hits right at the problem of
price-depressing surpluses built up because of wartime
policies too long continued. These SURPRISES hang over
your farm like a hidden mortgage.
Q. Will all farmers benefit?
A This program will directly benefit all FARMERS every
"a where: producers of food grains, feed grains, oil
seed and fiber crops, dairymen and livestock producers.
1t recognizes the special problems of regional groups and
producers of certain crops.
n. Will this program help strengthen
VI. farm prices?
A.. Yes. The present mountain o. surpfus, and the threat
"A. of future surplus, now holds down prices. Every
farmer realizes that "a government warehouse is not a
market" AS SURPRISES are used up prices will inevitably
rise. (Marketng people have estimated that net farm in
come would have been 81 billion higher in 1855 if it were
not for the surpluses)
". How much will 1t help?
A. Hundreds of millions of dollars in payments to
"A. farmers can be made this year under the Soil Bank
plan alone if passage is not delayed. This is In addition to
its effect in Strengthening farm prices. Farmers would
also get sec, 900, 900 a year tax refund on gasoline used
in their farming operations.
VI. How big is the surplus?
The government now holds an SS-biIion stock of
IA farm products. We can't shut our eyes to il, throw
il into the ocean or pillow it under. 1t costs about a million
dollars a day for storage and carrying charges alone.
n. Why dc surpIuses drive down i've
". stock prices az well as grain prices?
Continued overproduction of grains not only clogs
"a the grain markets but forces continued expansion
in an already over-expanded livestock production. Live
stock prices as well as grain prices would be higher today
If it were not for the surplus.
n. WHY is the new Soil Bank Plan
VI. the most sensible approach to the
surplus problem?
It will get rid of the surplus and prevent future
"A. surplus from piling up. 1t will stop the shift Of
another farmers problem crops to your problem crops.
n. How does the Soil Bank Acreage
VI. Reserve use the surplus to re-
duce the surplus?
In exchange for placing a portion of their allotted
"A. crop acres in the Soil Bank removing them from
production entirely for an agreed period, farmers viii
receive certificates. These certificates will be good for cash
at the bank or for commodities drawn from surplus
government stocks. In this way farmers win be using up
the surplus instead of adding to It. This part Of the pro
