With Thanks
Free schools are still free Institu
tions in the United States, thanks to
the bravery of ten congressmen, five
Democrats and Ave Republicans.
Jointly, last December 12, they
broke up a piece of law-making
strategy that might have wrecked
American freedom completely. Thus
ended Round S of a long and costly
fight to top our public schools with
a bureaucratic boss in Washington.
The House Committee on Educa
tion, by a ten-to-nine vote, rejected
the famous bill to provide federal
aid (?) to education. The threat of
collectivism to American liberty
was greater at no time during World
War II than it Is now, and all people
who appreciate the privileges our
pioneer grandfathers won with flint
lock rifles, may be thankful to a sane
congress.
Many Good Reasons
What happened that day made the
best news of the week but, impor
tant as it was, did not eclipse the
brilliant tidings of the previous week
when President Truman signed a
bill to place a group of government
corporations under control of Con
gress. These highly privileged, wild
entities had been foraging without
restraint in rich fields of industry for
varying numbers of years.
The Chief Executive compliment
ed Congress for roping and brand
ing these freebooters, as well be
might Indeed the 79th Congress
deserves a great deal of commenda
tion. One of its most notable
achievements of the First Session
was that exhaustive job by the
Manasco Committee, X-raying the
so-called Full Employment Bill. It
deserved to be diagnosed thorough
ly, and was.
Toothless Enactment
Several well informed Washington
observers are predicting that a do
homed and fangless version of the
Full Employment Bill will pass?
into oblivion. As originally written,
it waa a viper, a sort of two-edged
Townsend plan of pensions with an
appendad government guarantee of
every-ready, gainful employment to
everybody out of jails and hospi
tals, drunk or sober, on borrowed
government money.
Addressing a few belated travel
ers in a highway hamburger em
porium recently, a red-nosed tramp
declared: "There's plenty of every
thing in the world for everybody to
live-easy, if greedy guys would quit
grabbing everything and holding us
up for our share." I submit that
as a parallel to the philosophy of
the Full Employment Bill. It is sim
ply not true. Good living depends
on work.
Wealth sad Plenty
1 wish every American could live
on a farm long enough to learn how
plenty depends on production. The
more of anything people produce,
the more of It they have. There's
a difference between abundance and
prosperity; production la only ons
ingredient, but an essential Ingredi
ent. Idleness and scarcity lead di
rectly to poverty and want It is
true of a man. It Is true of a na
tion.
Prosperous, productive people can
afford to yield their substance freely
to help genuinely unfortunate foil
who are in need. On the other hand
it Is not a kindness to qusMb any
man's desire to maka his own liv
ing and build his own success. Do
fng such things for people Is unfali
to them. We should be proud oi
our TMh Congress for holding thai
everlasting truth In mind,

Why Not Grow Better Sweet Corn? ^4
^ 'E
?rnoto uourieiy rerry-Morie neea oo.
What's your favorite garden vegetable?
"Roastin' ears!" you can ltear whole families shouting in the Southern
States. "Corn-on-the-cob!" exclaim the Northern folks. It's the same every
where. Sweet corn is even more American than 'hot dogs'.
During the war many Victory Gardeners discovered the real flavor of sweet
nnm fnr 4Via Am4 4(ma TVau J A
that all the luscious sweetness is pre- 1
served by cooking the ears as soon as
they are picked. When they are al
lowed to lie around half a day before
boiling or roasting, much of the sugar
turns to starch, and there's a flat, un
appetising taste.
Because garden-fresh sweet corn is
bound to be a "must" for many peace
time homes, here are a few tips on
how to enjoy even better results than
In the past
If you have been growing white corn
up to now, why not adventure with
some of the yellow types? Many think
the flavor richer, and most experts
agree that yellow corn is superior'in
vitamins. Some of the new yellow hy
brids have certain advantages over the
older types. The ears are large, the
yield unusually heavy for the space
occupied, and moat hybrids are resist
ant to certain plant diseases. Golden
Cross Bantam does well almost every
where; loans is a favorite in southern
areas; Marcroaa is especially adapted to
northern gardens.
Where corn diseases are not common,
soma of the regular varieties still take
precedence. Many gardeners think
nothing surpasses the flavor of true
?
Golden Bantam. And fortunate folks
who have had a chance to sink their
teeth into the deep milky kernels of
Ferry's Golden want nothing else in
their sweet com patch.
Whatever the variety, several short
rows should be planted to form a com
pact plot, rather than one or two long
rows. This is to make sure that the
wind will carry pollen to every silk on
every ear for only in that way can all
the kernels develop.
Whether hybrids or regular types of
com are grown, be sure to put in sev
eral plantings ten days to two weeks
apart instead of sowing all the seed at
once. Fit end your sweet com eating
time over as long a season as possible.
Take courage if you have been a bit
discouraged because of the corn borer
or ear worm. There are more preven
tives this year and fairly simple ways
to combat the pests. Begin early If you
inspect a com borer attack. Apply
rotenone dust liberally on the plant
just before the ears form. Do this four
more times, five days apart. To out
smart the com ear worm, wait until
the ear has formed and the silk has
dried. Snip off the dried silk close to
the husk, or apply mineral oil at the
ear tipa.
FLORIDA FARMS
Two million acres ol farms in Flor
ida produce cotton, tobacco, sugar
cane, tung oil, grains, citrus fruits
and vegetables valued at $285,000,
000 annually. Only 6 per cent of the
land is cultivated in the state, leav
ing vast acreage to be developed
and furnish additional national
wealth. Increased post-war recrea
tion activity will also contribute to
the Nation's resources shared by in
vestors in Savings Bonds.
