Depends on Farming
My business is successful
only insofar as farming is sue
cessful. Your program indirectly
has contributed much to our sue
cess. It will contribute much
more SO long as you keep as the
major objective of your program
a service that fills the need of
real dirt farmers. l know you
will.
Some of the farmers need
heavier lines as they add more
electrical equipment. Some of
our farmers are shifting their
type of farm operation and this
needs technical guidance even
beyond what our County Agents
Offer
You have both a rural and
urban problem. You developed
the food freezer for rural people
and city people have adopted it.
! expect this will happen many
many times again as you keep
in step with progress.

Back at the beginning of mod
ern scientific socialism Karl
Marx and Friedrich Engels said
in Manifesto of the Communist
Party:
The Communists fight for the
attainment Of the immediate
aims. for the enforcement of the
momentary in tere S of the
working class, but in the move
ment of the present they also
represent and take care of the
future of that movement. !"
But back TO Khrushcnev The
Chairman said in enunciating
his 1861 program for the Com
munist International, In the
new historical situation. tn G
working class Of many countries
can, even before capitalism is
overthroWn, compel the bour-
geolsie to carry out measures
that transcend ordinary reforms
and are Of vital Importance to
the working class and the prog
ress of its struggle for social
ism. as well as to the majority
Of the nation. BY uniting large
sections of the working people,
the working class can make rul-
ing circles cease preparations
for a new world war, renomce
the idea of Starting local wars.
and use the economy for peace
full purposes "
In that same documen
Khrushchev said, The high
road to socialism has been
paved. Many peoples are al
ready marching along it, and it
will be taken sooner or later by
all peoples.
And just where does Khrush-
chev place socialism in relation
to capitalism and communism?
Here are his words:
In October 1917. the prole-
tartan revolution abolished the
capitalist system SO hated by
the people. A Socialist country
came into beng for the first
time in history. The creation
of a new world began
The first program of the
Party had been carried out.
Adopting its second program
at the Eighth Congress in 1919,
the Party promulgated the task
of building a Socialist society,
To-day the Communist Party
of the Soviet Union is adopting
its third program. a program
for the building of Communist
society,"
In closing. permit one more
direct quotation This comes
from work entitled. The So
cialiSt Tragedy" by a former
member of Britain's Parliament,
who was also a British Labor
tie until he transferred his al
leglance to the Conservative
Party Ivor Thomas wrote:
." socialism and commun-
ism differ only in the means and
not in the end: the final result
will in either case be the same.
1t is familiar practice in
medicine to give a person dis
ease in a mild form in order to
lmmunlze him against further
attacks of more serious ma
ture. But there would be little to
be said for an inoculation which
gave the patient a disease as
virulent as that from which it
is sought to protect him.
How important is the wording.
so long as we get the message?
In short. the communists seek
socialism as a prelude to com
mumsm.

| will contribute something of its
own in one or another form Of
democracy. one or another va
riety of the dictatorship of the
proletariat, one or another rate
at which socialist transforma-
tons will be effected in the vali-
Gus aspects Of social life"
But the contention seems to be
that Soviet Pre- m er Nikita
Khrushchev III particular has
never said that the way to pro-
duce a transition from capital
ism to socialism in this country
is to infiltrate governmental Cir
cles and influence decisions
subtly in favor of socialism.
Khrushchev said at the 20th
Congress of the Communist Par
ty of the Soviet Union, Our
enemies like to depict US Lenin-
lists as advocates of violence al
ways and everywhere. True. we
recognize the need for the revo-
lutionary Transformation of CAPT
talist society into socialist So
ciety but the forms of So
cial revolution vary. It is not
true that We regard violence
and civil war as the only way
to remake society,"
Gus Hall, recent speaker be-
fore the John Randolph Society
at the University of Virginia
and recognized head of the
Communist Party. U. S. a., said
in his keynote speech to the
18th National Convention of the
Party on December TO- 1859:
-. in the minds of the
American people conflict is
taking place between the ideas
of capitalism and those of So
cialsm. It touches upon every
major aspect of our social life,
and calls into question many
precepts which were long taken
for granted

write-off category-to maintain a player
OF such financial magnitude
Centerfield, unlike first base, never
has been prime Yankee problem. Before
Mantle there was DiMaggio, who as a
prideful man quit the business with a
100000 contract (hiS fourth straight lying
on his desk.
DiMaggio's skillS had been depleted by
the years. although he was not old, and
bone spur in his foot drained away the
rest Of the fun.
BEFORE DiNAGGIO THERE was Earle
Combs in center for the Yankees, and here
was another good one. He couldn't throw
a lick but he learned to snap off his pegs
like an infielder and he more than got by
on defense. At bat? Well, Combs played l.
asa AL games and hit 1925, and in four
World Series he batted $50. Mantle, as
highly rated as he is, never will match that
lifetime mark.
Combs came up in 1924, and the next
Yankee centerfielder on a permanent basis
was DiMag, who was to pick up in 1885 and
remain until 81, when Mantle was ad-
judged ready.
Mickey already has given 1t whirl
for Is seasons, more or less, and has be-
come part Of the Yankee legend. Purists
wonder If he really is one of the all-time
greats. His average wouldn't indicate it
800 or somewhere in that neighborhood.
Sam Rice Of the old Senator's played the
game for two decades, hit 1922, yet almost
had to be forced by editorial weight into
the Hall Of Fame.
THERE WILL BE NO ATTEMPT here
to compare Mantle with Rice. The Yam
kee is all muscle, like Mr.. Clean. Rice was
a birdlike guy with flat stroke and q
record of stealing SO bases in 1919. I'm
cidentally, how does guy steal SO bases
for next-to-last-place club that wins
only So games?)
Part of Nantes reputation, no doubt
has been due to the gifted publicist, Arthur
(Red) Patterson, now with the Dodgers. He
invented the tape-measure home run, in
spired by blast by Mantle off the long
forgotten Chuck Stobbs at Griffith Sta
dunn.
"Five-hundred and sixty-five feet,
Patterson declared In the press box, fol
lowing an appropriate interval while n
ostensibly skirted Howard University ant
some back fences with his 565-foot-lonl
tape.

he's ready to retire remains to be seen.

He hit the ball as few players

The latter was his undoing.
Stuart, a large, righthanded-
hitting first baseman for the
Red Sox, comes close to quail
flying in each respect. He's hit
ting the ball, at least so far as
power is concerned, better than
any other player in the Amer

The Red Sox love to talk
about that. They don't particu-
