Feed Grain Program
Does Not Affect
Other Growers

The recently enacted 1861 feed
grain program applies only to
producers of corn and grain sor-
chum. Mr.. Lynn Jordan, Chair
man OF the Holmes Agricultural
Sterilization and Conservation
County Committee, said today.
II does not apply to producers
of other feed grain.
In reply to inquiries as to how
the program affects farmers who
produce "other" feed grains, such
as barley, oats, or rye, the chair
man explained that a farmers
participation in the 1861 feed
grain program will be calculated
from records of his farms corn
and grain sorghum production
during the base years 1859 and
1860.
From these records will be
determined the minimum
amount of acreage the grower
must divert from such produc-
ton into a soil-conServing use,
and also the rate of payment APP
plicable TO the farm.
For diverting acreage under
The program, the corn and grain
sorghum producer will receive
4 special payment. and he will
be eligible for price support on
he normal production of his
1861 corn and grain sorghum
acreage and also on all of his
other feed grain crops - barley,
pats. and rye.
Where a farmer did not pro-
duce either corn or grain sor-
ghum in 1859 or 1860 and where
he does not intend growing these
crops this year, the feed grain
program does not affect him at
all. Such a farmer will be able
to obtain price support on his
other" feed grains just as in
other years - without regard to
the 1861 feed grain program.
Producers of corn and grain
sorghum will find it definitely
to their advantage to participate
n the feed grain program, MI.
Jordan declared. Besides quail
flying for price support on 1861
feed grains, the c~ooperator will
be assured of an income from
the diverted acreage regardless
of drought or other production
hazards, and for most producers,
the payment will return an
amount greater than the net in
come from a normal crop on
these acres. furthermore. up to
half of the estimated total pay
ment will be made in advance
f the farmer so wishes and files
such a request.
The Incorporating corn or
grain sorghum producer, on the
other hand, will have no price
support available for any of
his 1861 feed grain production,
will not be assured of net in
come from any of his 1861 feed
Grain acreage, will receive only
he market price for his crop
whatever that may be, and will
get no part of his income from
an advance payment this spring.
Farmers who are interested in
he feed grain program for corn
and grain sorghum are urged to
Get in touch with the ASC coun-
" committee without delay.

i may take; but as for me, give me liberty
or give me DEATH" Patrick Henry said that.
AS men of courage chose to stand. q free
nation was born.
Today the life of nations is breaking down.
Riot and rebellion, hell and holocaust are in our
midst. An theology born in Illustration and hatred
challenges the world. A period of danger unparal-
leled in human history confronts us. America must
stand and give the answer.
There is an answer. 1t lies in Americans accept
ing the challenge to live by absolute moral standards
and the guidance of God. An extreme of evil can
only be met by an extreme of good. A ~fanatical
following of evil by a passionate pursuit OF good.
William Penn put it straight: "Men must
choose to be governed by God or they condemn
themselves to be ruled by tyrants."
We cannot live crooked and think straight.
We cannot keep our mistresses, our dishonest deals,
our comforts and still keep our liberty. Our
immortality is Communism's greatest asset. Chou
En-lai of Red china says: I'VE can slip our Com
munist theology in through the weak spots in mems
characters"
Lip service to the faith of our fathers cannot
counter an about devotion to an evil theology.
Human brilliance that does not obey the guidance
of God cannot answer human brillianCe dedicated
to destroy God.
Abraham Lincoln knew the secret of God
control. He wrote, eff it were not for my firm belief
in an overriding Providence, it would be difficult
for me in the midst of such complications of affairs
to keep my reason in it's seat. / am satisfied that
when the Almighty wants me to do or not to do
any particular thing, He finds a way of letting
me know it."
This is the missing factor in the planning and
the craftsmanship of the world today-a God
centered theology for democracy.
Moral Re-Amament offers America and the
whole world the superior armament Of an theology
without which armies are out-fought and statesmen
out-thought. Americas great, immediate, positive
task is to live and give Moral e-Armamen to the
world. Then empty hands will be filled with work,
empty stomachs with food, and empty hearts with
an idea that really satisfies.
Robert Schuman, as Foreign Minister of
France, in his foreword to the collected speeches
of DIR. Frank Buchanan, Remaking the World,
wrote: Moral Re-Armament brings us a philosophy
of life applied in action. 1t is the beginning OF a
vast transformation of human society which has
already begun. 1t is not a question of a change
of policy; it is a question of changing men. Democ-
racy and her freedoms can be saved only by the
quality of the men who speak in her name"
"a vast transformation of human society"
That is Moral Re-Armament. Millions are turning
to it, leaders and led in Africa, Asia, Europe and
the Americas. Across the free world an army of
men and women is growing, united in their COM
mitment to live under Gods direction. They present
an impregnable barrier to evil men and evil ideas
and give a sure hope to despairing millions on
both sides of the Iron Curtain.
As men choose and change, they turn the
course of history.

AMERICAN SURGEON
IN THE CONGO

A, group of Africans were talking animatedly
in a train near Johannesburg. They were speaking
about an American surgeon who had stayed on III
the Congo with a Moral Re-Armament force after
the outbreak of the crisis and won the trust OF
the Congolese and their leaders.
The American is DIR. William T. Close of Green
witch, Connecticut, formerly the chief resident sur
geon at Roosevelt Hospital, New York. Prime Min
lister Ileo said to him and the force OF Moral Re
Armament: "My wish is that you stay long enough
in this country. If not, Communism will come in
when you 60 out"
The MIRA force has been in the Congo since
May 1860 at the invitation of the Congolese, hungry
for an answer to civil war and mmun takeover.
DR.. Close has no economic aid or military
assistance to offer but he has a militant commit
ment to an theology so powerful that he wins and
changes Communist and nom alike.
When the trouble broke out and the Europeans
fed, Dr.. Close offered his services without pay in
the 18OO-bed East Leopoldville Hospital.
The hospital was threatened by a strike. One
morning Close was operating on a Congolese soldier.
His Congolese medical assistant was a ringleader
of the strike, q bitter man. The atmosphere was
tense. Close paused for a moment, turned to the
technician and said, II was thinking OF you early
this morning" The technician was on his guard.
The doctor continued, "It is the arrogance and
superiority in white men like me that have created
the bitterness in men like you. | am really sorry"
There was a long silence. Il have never heard a
white man admit he was wrong" said the Congolese.
,OIOSc WON CQc U0CIIuCldu duU UlOuSuC q = oPAAC
to the hospital.
DR.. Close works IA to Is hours a day. He fights
for the Congolese leaders to deal as drastically with
the evils in their nation as a doctor does with his
patients; he shows the MIRA theological films to
the UN and Congolese troops or speaks over the
national radio on the MIRA program, "The Answer
to Crisis" which is broadcast twice daily.
One day a Congolese leader was secretly Of
fered a high position in a new government. 1t was
a clever trick to divide the democratic forces. At
dinner that night DR.. Close told this man how he
had changed and put things right with his wife and
his boss at the New York hospital. The Congolese
leader, moved by Closes honesty, admitted his
ambition was being used to split the government.
He decided to refuse the offer and exposed the
whole plot to the acting Prime Minister.
DR.. Close writes from the Congo, "The Congo
does not want Communism. America must not
choose to compromise with the Communists. She
must be blind to her own danger if she follows
a line that will force Communism on to another
country. In the words of an African leader, Moral
Re-Armament is doing for Africa what Abraham
Lincoln did for America. It is binding up the ma
tons wounds and setting the people free Either
we Americans accept to fight the moral battle in
our own country and give a moral theology to other
nations, or we condemn Africa and the world to a
bloody holocaust"
