I haul.; John Slrohm. president of the Agrieull ur al Editors Association, now traveling in Europe, writes: “Farmers mn lv i« ll\ are work ing very hard .

The\ need h rtilizei and draft power par ticularly . . . “The long term agricultural problem is the acute shortage ot land in Europe at least the majority of the countries, Greece, for instance, has only 4- end 5-acre farms . . . Cash income above living is only about $123 per farm family a veai . . . -The United States is soil ol an outer garden ol heaven in tin eyes ol most farm people abroad. And il you’d seen, as 1 have, the burned-out lai n: villages ol Greece, the gr !\ <-s it Jugoslav farmers who were buried where they f, 11. the tools and land and gov ernment liiey work with then you’d tel! your renders t ■ t! auk their luck', stars fm the accident of birth that made them Ameri can farmers.’ 1 mm The Progressive Farm er Itnnniii" l in Ihnrn Rich much was heard about high wanes in defense planh; during the war.

So often we sow and then condemn that which in turn, must be reaped. Recently the National Association of Manufacturers, in oil' of its kept press sheets, had the Rail to say, "The restoration of competition, with the permanent aboli tion of OFA. will bring full production and the prosperity which ev< ryone has been hoping for.” The NAM scorns to overlook the fact that production during OFA was the1 greatest ever known in peacetime. The NAM seems to overlook the fact that national income is at its highest level. After ignoring the facts as they existed. Ilie organization blurs its vision looking to ward the future. In working for the death of OFA. the NAM did not stop to think that inflation would set in, that workers would act to get wages commensurate with rising living costs, that production would be inter rupted, that the nation is almost certain to get caught in a vicious circle wherein it can run faster to wreck and ruin. The NAM has helped set the stage for trouble Yet il can be counted on to con demn the trouble caused by its own acts. I\ip More Tlwn To ll<‘ /..v/wlrtl Wlu’n mcmlx'rs of the supposedly august United States Supreme Courl go In the pub lie square to wash their dirty linen, when Congress talks of shady transactions of its members and wrangles over and muddles important legislation is there anv wonder that there are jurisdictjdnal disputes among common workers and that the individual is confused. When the recognized leadership falter: and dismally fails to lead we can ox peel lit tle more than confusion throughout the length and breadth of the land. We shouldn’t close the door to all immi gration, but we need to maintain at all limes a firm and realistic control of the flow. 11 tint ington Advert jser 1 COMt IN lODAt AND l If US HtlP YOU Make your vacation trip with a well-serviced car Keep your car in sound condition—keep it serving dependably—until you get delivery of your new Chevrolet* Come to our service station for skilled, dependable, car-saving service, today and ai regular intervals.
