Mr. Ford's will illustrates the com mendable generosity of many rich Americans, who after amassing huge fortunes, give them to the public after their death. The Ford fortune, it should be pointed out, was earned in a highly competitive field, without benefit of monopoly or legislative favors. If any private fortune in the Cnited States represents the just fruits of our economic system, it is the Ford fortune. How About Drafting Miners? The solution to the problem of the miners, if the strike is renewed, is easy. Congress should promptly pass a law, empowering the President to draft miners for the public service, using the Selective Service machin ery, and enrolling all necessary miners in the service of the Govern ment. Thereafter, the miners would be treated as soldiers, receive $50 a month and carry out military orders. If they disobeyed the orders of su perior officers, they would be sub ject to the same penalty as soldiers in battle zones. This suggestion may sound drastic, but, in essence, there is no reason why striking miners should be al lowed to imperil the security of the country. By going on a strike against their government, they create a situation of peril which the gov ernment must meet in order to exist. Food Production Is The Need In all the talk about food, domestic and foreign, it will be well to think less of controlling and apportioning what is available, and consider to greater extent how to produce more. That is the end question, production. Happily, Herbert Hoover, in his latest approach to the problem, swings more to that line. He is correct in his view that American cities will have even less food supply in the coming months, and next winter, than they have had in recent days. He is right in de claring that even so Americans will not starve. The reduced diete in American cities are still on a lush and luxurious plane by present interna tional standards. When he says that if the war in Europe should come to an end with in the next 12 months "we should have no consequential food supplies with which to meet three or four hundred millions of starving people" he accurately assesses one of the po tential tragedies of these times. All this underlines the necessity for extraordinary, even colossal food production in the United States. Mr Hoover barely suggests the neeo when he asks for the planting ol from 40 to 50 million additional acres next year. What are other needs? We suggest a few: a price structure that will give incentive for the right sorts of crops, better organization and financing of smaller farmers more reliable guarantees of harvest ,hands, provision of adequate machin ery and fertilizer, improved use of dairy products, and, above all, de finite, intelligent planning for the immediate needs of freed peoples, needs thpt include so they may help themselves barnyard animals and farming implements as well as sus taining rations. Christian Science Monitor. the Navy's Seabees, the construction battalions, and Mr. Brown will have full information about enlistment in this branch. Local Price Clerk Issues Notice On Potato Prices Country shipping point prices on potatoes has been set at $2.70 by OPA, according to Mrs. Eleanor White, price clerk of the local War Price and Rationing Board. Mrs,- White announced that deliv ered sales to retailers are priced ac cording to the country shipping point price, plus transportation costs, plus 60c per cwt. for delivered sale. These prices are now in effect, and will continue, unless changed by OPA, until the close of the potato season. Additional Funds Allotted For Base At Harvey's Point The Navy Department has advised Congressman Herbert C. Bonner of additional expenditures for the Nav al Auxiliary Air Base at Havey's Point. The sum allotted amounted to $226,000. It was announced that the Secre tary of the Navy approved the project which will be the construction of ammunition storage facilities at the base located here.
