Farmers Toil to Cure Soil Waste

Stabilizing the Farm Land ; Is Vital to Our National I Welfare, Says Expert.

WASHING' ON. - VVith its ambi-itious 1047 pr.;grai\i aimed at almost doubling its 1946 accomplishments, the soil conservation service admit­tedly has laid out a big job for itself. But on the basis of past achieve-;ments, coupled with the growing ,restiveness of farmers toward soil waste that literally washes dollars out of their pockets, the program appears feasible, experts say.

Progress in the first six anor'ths of ithe fiscal year also would indicate !the goal was not too high. ; According to H. H. Bennett, chief of the SCS and the nation's out­standing preacher on the evils of soil erosion for the last 40 years, the higher goals this year are essential.

"The work of stabilizing our farm land is vital to the national wel­fare," he declared, "and must move ahead with even greater speed, for it has been too long retarded."

Has Shown Results.

Bennett hits the chord that has perhaps struck most tunefully on tht ear of the farmer debating the question of undertaking soil con* serration: "*> •

"Where i has been practiced," Ben;-<?tt ss.1, "soil - conservation 'fari>ir\? '-es .suited in at least a 20' yi. cent increase in production per acre, as an average. It has meant increased income to the farmer and savings in seed, ferti­lizer, labor and power. It has ac­counted for a high degree of land protection, even under the pressure of intensified wartime production." He estimated that the cost of not having a scientific program would average one million dollars a year.

Bennett declared that American farmers, falling in line with conser­vation practices made possible by congressional appropriation, "are turning the tide; we are winning the fight against the greatest common enemy to productive land—uncon­trolled soil erosion/'

He aims to put more than 30 mfl-jlion additional acres of farm land 'under conservation surveillance by June 30. That compares with new coverage to 10 million, acres of land in fiscal year 1940. r- Total Acreage Rising. ' If his new program is realized It will bring to a total of 115 million acres the farm and ranch land in the United States which has been blanketed by complete soil and water conservation of all kinds tince the program got under way in earnest in 1933.

Just how far the program has progressed in the first six months is shown by these figures: Q» July 1, 1944, of this current fiscal year there were 1,637 soil-conservation districts, embracing approximately 883 million acres, under conserva­tion. By December 15, the number of districts has risen to 1,750 and slightly more than one billion acres. < The growth of districts means that more farmers and farms are brought closer to the technicians. Who are available to assist them in their problems. The Utopian aim, of course, is to have every acre of ey-*3r district under control. Work is carried on now almost entirely jfhrough the district program.

This year around $41,300,000 has been made available for soil control •in the seven regions of the country. In 1948 it is expected that the appro­priation will go up to $4*321,500.

Bennett, in his zeal to save fertil­ity of the soil, has compared the average American farm to a "pa­tient beset with a complication of diseases, many of which are beyond the powers of home doctoring or even a general practitioner."

Russia Stepi Dp'47 Goals for Industry

Agriculture Production Also Comes in lor Boost.

MOSCOW.—The Soviet Council of Ministers announced its heavy in­dustries and agriculture production plan for- 1947, which calls for a speedup of work throughout Russia with quotas running as high as 332 per cent bigger than last year's.

The ministers' plan includes "fur­ther application of modern tech­nique in supplying the armed force's of the Soviet union with ths most up-to-date military equipment," the Moscow radio, heard in London, re­ported. -

The broadcast said that civilian production in 1946 was 50 per cent higher than 1945, but that in many cases the standards set for 1946 had not been met.

The plan laid great emphasis on heavy industry, ;;here it called for a 33.3 per cent increase in produc­tion.

The announcement blamed last year's lag in heavy industry pro­duction on the lack of fuel. As a result, the ministers gave first priority in 1947 to coal and oil pro­duction, to be upped 16 and 18 per cent, respectively.

The plan called on Russian work­ers to increase consumer goods pro­duction 27 per cent and to double the construction of new dwellings, badly needed to replace war-devas­tated buildings. To improve living standards further, the ministers de­creed a 50 per cent jump in clothing production and a 37 per cent higher food quota.

Seven million more acres of ground will be planted this year to increase food output and the pro­duction of agricultural machinery will be jumped 203 per cent under the plan.

In terms of the individual worker, the new quotas meant that "the productivity of the worker in indus­try must be increased 13 per cent and in construction 11 per cent," the council said.

Some of the increased quotas for heavy industry announced included:

Steel, 19 per cent higher than 1946; cast iron, 21 per cent; heavy locomotives, 88 per cent; trucks, 55 per cent; passenger cars, 316 per cent; steam turbines, 242 per cent; hydro-turbines, 332 per cent and standard housing, 188 per cent

Caaeer Victims Savtw By New Sarjery Plan

CHICAGO -University of Chi­cago reported that out of 100 "hopeless" patients suffering from abdominal cancer, 19 have survived with the aid of experi­mental surgery performed by Dr. Alexander Brunschwig.

The new technique in cancer surgery was disclosed in a book entitled "Radical Surgery in Ad­vanced Abdominal Cancer," pub­lished' by University of Chicago Press.

Dr. Brunschwig began his ex­periments with advanced cancer cases more than 10 years ago at the university.

The 19 patients who survived previously had been classified as "inoperable" and had been given only days to live, the university said. No recurrences have been found, despite the fact some of the operations were undertaken 10 years ago, it added.

While most of- the 1,500 students were home on vacation, two of the three public eateries in town dou­bled the price of a cup of coffee, raising It to 10 cents.

Pin-Cushion Wristlet A so-called pin-cushion wristlet is

a handy, gadget as it can save the home seamstress much time, and trouble in fitting, draping, measur­ing hems. In making a dress, the seamstress often must reach for a pin 50 times or more. Unless these pins are easily reached, fumbling for them slows up work and means much unnecessary effort and irrita­tion. A tray or box of pins may be convenient enough for work that is done on the sewing table; but for fitting iind hem work, the pin sup­ply should move with the worker. A cushion on the wrist is a simple, homemade device. It can be made round with about twoO inches of thicknes! and three inches of width and filled with heir or sawdust. An elastic band will serve to hold it in the position of a wTist watch. This cushion can be a time-saver also by attaching it to the arm of a sewing machine. When thia pin-cushion is not in use, the pins should be kept in a tight box. Pins kept in the cushion are likely to**

Harvester policy of to save users of our products approximately $20,000,000 a year have now been worked out.

Vh have reduced prices on 163 models. These cover 12 basic models of farm tractors, 123 basic models of farm machines, 16 basic models of industrial tractors and emgmea, and 12 mod­els of motor trucks, as well as certain motor truck attachments. The new lower prices are effective as of March 10,1947.

These reductions were made not because of any decline in demand, but because we believe nothing is more important to this country than to lower the prices of the goods people buy.

While prices have not been changed on all products, we have made reductions wherever possible, in the amounts possible. Prices of many of our most popular products have been substantially lowered.

Altogether, more than naif of the company's customers wiQ be benefited by the reductions, which range from 1 % to 23.8% and from $2.50 to $300 per item, based on list prices, P . 0 3 . Chicago.

Since the people have demanded that the government withdraw from price control in peacetime, the responsibility to keep prices in check is back where it should be—in the hands of business and industry. The business outlook makes it possible for us to move toward the goal of lower prices, and we have felt a duty to act as promptly as possible.

Our ability to maintain these lower prices will depend on the supply and price of materials we buy from others and on uninterrupted pro­duction at reasonable wage levels.

The prices listed here carry out our an­nounced policy that "Any price is too high if it can be reduced." \

bate Office in the City of Itax, the tax on horse racing, and other on thf 26th dav of March levies whereby substantial revenues

could be derived to finance the new public services by local units of gov­ernment. For every $100 of new taxes collected, the State of Michigan re­tained $18 and turned over $82 to; local governments for their needs, j

A second way whereby local public ; services by home governments are financed in other states is that of snecia Hocal taxes.

The local collection of local taxes has a peculiar virtue of bringing the i taxpayer close to the agency which is expending his tax dollar. Much of the breakdown in tax responsibility has been due to the fact that an increas­ing large amount of taxes has been received from sources not within the community, either from Lansing or from Washington, and hence had the illusion of being money from some­one else's pocketbook and not our own.

This asrect was crystallised by Governr Thomas E. Dewey of New York who declared: "Without close correlation between the (pending of public money and the responsibility for collecting it through taxes, local responsibility for government will degenerate rapidly and we shall have an all-powerful, centralized govern­ment. That prospect is a threat to

centralized government." Governor Dewey has had the cour­

age and daring to propose specific new taxes for local units of govern­ment whereby these governments mi*ht finance the increased cost of public services at the present time.

For example, county governments in New York State would be empow­ered to levy a retail tax of not more than 2 per cent on tangible personal property. Owners of moter vehicles would pay a tax of not more than $5 per passenger vehicle and not more than $10 for a commercial vehicle. Trucks used exclusively for farming would be exempted.

The county government would be authorized to levy a tax of 3 per cent on restaurant meals and drinks over $1-. Counties could tax alcoholic bev­erage licenses at not more than 25 per cent of the amount of the state licenses fee. Counties could tax ad-

ProvUt* jUMt lM*a<fy Thirty per cent of the American

people piobably have had mumps , without knowing, it, the result being a high degree of immunity to epi- j demies of this common, but some- i times quite serious, disease of child­hood, according to University of Pennsylvania and Harvard univer­sity medical scientists under a con- ! tract with the surgeon general's of- , flee of the army.

Mumps and meastee usually are > paired as childhood maladies. Each i is caused by a specific filterable j virus. Both diseases are very con- j tnginus. One virus presumably is as j •.videly disseminated in the popula­tion as the other. Yet the studies sho\y that about 33 per cent of young adults have a probable acquired im­munity to the disease indicating j some past infection of which they j were unaware. One attack of mumps is believed to protect an individual ; against further attacks of the vi­rus for the rest of his life. Statis­tical studies have shown that where­as about 90 per cent of the American population suffer from measles at some time or other only 60 per cent are victims of mumps.

The immunity of a person was determined by the so-called "com-plemenfixation" test of the blood serum with mumps virus cultivated in incubated chicken eggs, and also by a skin test with similar material In this hidden reservoir of acquired immunity, mumps seems to bear some likeness to. poliomyelitis, also a virus disease of children. It is be­lieved that about 90 per cent of the population have had polio in a sub­clinical form at some time, with the result that they are permanently protected against it.

Striking Scenery Nature has created striking ef­

fects in the Wurttemberg-Baden re­gion of Germany. The great rift val­ley of the upper Rhine, part of which forms the western border of Baden, is a broad trench of fertile farmlands, orchards and vineyards, dotted with industrial towns. Be­yond the Rhine gap, the wooded hills that spread across Baden into Wurttemberg present another type of country, one of lonely lakes and waterfalls, rocky gorges and the solitude of the firs and beeches of the Black forest. In this historic sec­tion of central Europe, old towns and ruined castles depict events from Roman to late medieval times, when feudal barons struggled for power. At Ulm, on the Danube in the southeast corner of Ameri­can-occupied Wurttemberg, the Aus­trian General Mack surrendered to Napoleon. Baden's Heidelberg, with its famous castle and university, claimed nearly 200,000 visitors ev­ery year.

Bailiff Uses PsyektJofy as Means #f 'Matin** Tires

AKRON, OHIO.—Psychology has been used successfully by a build­ing contractor to combat "infla­tion." The contractor, having trou­ble with punctures in the pneumatic tires of his wheelbarrows, called in a B. F. Goodrich Rubber company field engineer, who suggested re­placing them with zero pressure tires—a type which contains air space but does not have an inflated inner tube.

However, the laborers com­plained that the wheelbarrows were much harder to push without the pneumatic tires. Knowing this was just imagination, the contractor h»d dummy vah'es put through the rim holes to make the tires look pneu­matic, and then returned the bor­rows to the job.

Next day, one by one, his em­ployees came to tell him that the pushing was much easier again, as they "knew.it would be," they said, with inflated tires.

10% 2 3/4%

Why it takes 6% to make the grade.. . Impartial researchpolbshowthat,(mthe average.people think we make 15 % .They also think a fair return would be 10¾.

What We Make

But for the year 1946, with the biggest peace-time traffic in history, the rail­roads earned only . . . 2¾%. This is less than one-half the comparable earn­ings for other industries.

The reasons for this low return axe not hard to find. Since 1939 railroad wages have increased 52*/io% and the prices of fuel materials and supplies have gone up 61*/to£.

But freight rates have Just recently been increased an average of only 17*/M>58—a year after the effective date of the last big wage increase.

What About ThU Year?

It is estimated that the return for 1947, even with the recent freight rate in­crease, will be only about half the 6% minimum return required to provide the improvements and service needed. This will be because of increased costs of materials and supplies; because cer­tain wage increases granted in 1946

were in effect for only part of 1946 but will be in effect for all of 1947; because of increased special payroll taxes on railroads; and because of a decline in passenger business.

What Does This Mean To You? The answer is "Plenty!" Your standard of living is the highest in the world be­cause of MASS PRODUCTION. But mass production would not be possible with­out MASB TRANSPORTATION, which the

railroads provide at low cos t

Whi$%hNe*ded The kind of service your standard of living requites takes a lot of money for new equipment and improvements. To carry out the post-war msntovenaent program for better equsptnent, tracks, terminals and modern safety devices, a minimum return of 6% is needed.

So when the railroads make only 2¾ cents on each $1.00 of their net prop­erty investment, it concerns you.*

The funds for future new equipment and improvements must come from rail­road earnings and also from investors. They will furnish money on reasonable terms only if they have confidence in the future earnings of the railroads.

You Have Another Stake In ThU

Even if you do not own any railroad stocks or bonds, insurance companies and saving* rjesks do. S o y o u still have a special interest in uueiug that the rail­roads are allowed enough to do a good job , . . for you.

Vfe are publishing thai and other advertisements to talk with you at first hand about matters which are impor­tant to everybody.

Girl's Broken Leg. Leads to Discovery of Weapon

Against Infection. CHICAGO.—Discovery of a n w

germ-killer> named in honor of the seven-year-old girl whose broken leg led to its discovery, was an­nounced in the Journal of the Amer­ican Medical.association. So power­ful is the new weapon against.infec­tion that out of 100 patients on whom* it was tried, 62 were saved from surgery.

The new agent is called, bacitra­cin. It was-developed in New York from a germ found in the infected wound of Margaret Tracy, 7, who had suffered a compound leg frac-tufe. The discoverers are Dr. Frank L. Meleney.and Miss Balbina John­son of Columbia university college of medicine and New York's Pres­byterian hospital. Their announce­ment comes after four years of re­search.

Treat Boils, Sties. Infected fingers, boils, carbuncles,

sties and ulcers are among the in­fections aided by bacitracin. Its use either obviated surgery or speeded recovery after surgery. The article says that results were "so speedy they surprised both the patient and physician."

Among instances cited are those cf a patient with "a large indurated (hardened) and inflamed abscess of the face, and another with a deep abscess of the chest wall."

After a single injection, the article declares, both patients felt so much better they didn't consider it neces­sary to return the following day for treatment. And on the third day, when they returned, the wounds were "quiescent."

•'Treatment of several patients with sties," the report says, "re­quired nothing more than bacitracin dropped in the eye."

Used as an Ointment. Bacitracin, now made up in oint­

ment form that melts at body tem­perature, is effective against many of the same organisms as penicillin. But 30 organisms were found which were resistant to penicillin and re­sponded to bacitracin, while six were resistant to bacitracin and susceptible to penicillin. Some or­ganisms were resistant to both.

Another article in the same issue reports that six physicians of George Washington university school of medicine used penicillin in, the treatment of M scarlet fever cases and found it highly effective.

"Penicillin," the article says, "brought a prompt faE in tempera­ture, decreased toxicity and practi­cally eliminated the danger of pa­tients carrying the disease and in­fecting other*."

Excellent results also were ob­tained in the same field by Drs. Archibald L. Hoyne and Rowine Hayes Brown of the Municipal Con­tagious Diseases hospital, Chicago.

Shoes of Berliner* ' U j f j i Repair Shoe; Coort$ Helpless

BERLIN. — Berliners, distrustful of neighborhood service shops, have started having only one of their shoes soled at a time. They have found if they leave only one shoe in the repair shop they are more likely to get it back.

Lower German courts have been flooded with damage suits against shoemakers, tailors and laundries by customers who left shoes, watches, wearing apparel and linen for repairs or cleaning, only to find that the iters* were "lost."

Testimony indicated that the items found their way into the black market where heavy prices are paid for scarce consumer goods articles newly repaired, while tradesmen showed a "willingness" to refund the original purchase price.

Complainants, however, are not satisfied with sucV a settlement be­cause they are unable to replace their belongings at that price.

The lost and found department of the Berlin police reports that around two hundred persons come daily looking for lost goods, most of them fruitlessly.

One item, frequently lost but never turned over to the lost and found department, is a food ration card.

Vast Ore Deposit in Canada >£

Appears to Be One o i the Greatest in World. T

T T T T T T T T T i

OTTAWA, CANADA.—Through a 200 million dollar program of ex­ploration and development of a vast iron ore deposit in the Canadian-L-:JJI -r.tor northland, which appears i>j l:v or. 3 of the greatest in the •wo-ld, a v'rtually uninhabited area nay, be coi. verted into a thriving industrial project of world impor­tance.

Several million dollars, already have hcoi sp^nt on exploration and ariiimg in the area, now peopled only by a few thousand Eskimos and Indiana. Tests indicate the field has rich deposit of high grade bes-semer ore, rivaling those of the famed Mesabi range in Minnesota. The Mesabi range now is the lead­ing source of iron in North America.

Interest in the new field is quick­ened also because the Mesabi sup­ply, depleted by heavy drains in wartime, is dwindling in the face of continued heavy demands for iron and steel.

Hundreds of Miles Long. The new deposits lie. astride the

Quebec-Labrador boundary be- f tween 300 and 400 miles north of the Gulf of St, Lawrence, far into the j«® hinterland at the headwaters of the j A George. Whale and Swampy rivers \Jk in Quebec and extending into Lab- j 'W rador. !da

Eurr: in the 2'^dgct Di;i yc-i 1. "\v the I irc-ome of the

federal government for the ne::t fis­cal year will be nine time.?, maybe cen times, what it wc.3 in the boom period of 1D23?. It wi'll be at least ^":"! t:r."cs f^o r2-'C''pts the federal gcv:Tr.n;:nl had"in 1939. Weak na­tion it would be, indeed, that could not balance a peacetime budget with the receipt skte of Jh_e ledger at enormous peacetime highs? -. •»-

Just to balance the budget during boom times, however, is not enough. We must retire debt and reduce taxes. Looking at another angle, the federal government wants to spend rnjoje than four times as much as it did in any year of the Thirties, when deficit spending was in the habit-forming stage. Has it now become fashionable for our government to spend all it can get? Have we for­gotten that the more we spend the more we shall have to tax?

•-- Pet Projects If we cannot, under favorable con­

ditions of high employment and trade, get hold of ourselves long enough to retire our national debt and cut our taxes, at what future time do we expect to do so? Is our budgeting so out of hand that Con­gress cannot gain control over it? Or is the public thus unmindful of the trouble we're in for under a tax load required by the spending of $37,500,-OOO'.OOO annually. —•• • - - •

Both the President and the Con­gress have given evidence of horc::4. desire to keep the expenditure rido of the budget down. Rut the pre?: sures that are replied from even-' direction call for sjv?ndio^ more money. As a ptcplp. wo shall h; >>; to exert great n..u'al fortitude at u'1-'

Icr.c'th of over 1 GO miles xnd for a ; width of from 15 to 20 miles. .This is

a large field by any standard. It has financial as well as industrial cir­cles on the alert.

The •deposits rre in two conces­sions, one in Labrador, under the Newfoundland government, and one in "Quebec. The Hol.linger Consoli­dated Gold Mines, operators of the largest gold mine in Canada, con­trols both concessions.

What is known of the deposits so far is based principally on the find­ings reported by the concession holders. These indicate a total of more than 1,250,000 long tons of ore per vertical foot, with an average grade of 61 per cent iron, a high content. The American average is a little better than SO per cent and typical European ore runs from 30 to 35 per cent

Winter BUnteg Seen, G o v e r n m e n t officials believe

open-pit mining could be carried on , throughout the winter without diffl- j culty, pointing out that this is done in Norway and Sweden at much higher latitudes.

"There is an immediate market of important dimensions along the Atlantic seaboard of the United States and Canada where the short voyage and return cargoes of coal would give it an advantage," said one government mines official.

The Labrador ore is of excep­tional quality, could be mined at unusually low cost and could be transported to a St. Lawrence port at moderate cost.

Sweden would give keen compe­tition \p the Labrador ore in British and western European markets, and the largest potential market for the iron appears to be in the area now served by the Mesabi range.
