AGGRESSION
It has often been said, and truth-
(fully, that our going into the^wnr
has not 'been inspired by a Idetdre
to take territory away from * other
people, We refer, wi|h disdain, to
the Axis nations, ah ( aggressors.
They are attempting to take land
nd property r»way front other na-
ions by force;-That is •-largo-scale
bbery, and America arantsmono of
t.
But there is one fornf of aggres-
sion we dd believe irr, and'thatM»
•the aggression of ' science toward
■supplying us with products the war
prevents ^ u» jfrom importing, and
;with new, products never before
ever dreamed of.
As an outstanding example, it is
Unlikely that we shall ever- again iifi-
,port silk fronf Japan. Whenitwe stop-
ijied buying itf Wei already had in-
rayon and nylon p family of synthe-
, jtic fibres, made from wood' pulp, the
basis for rpll the sheer fabrics we
need. These we can make from cheap
materials, grown at heme, In unlimit-
ed quantities—and the “made’’ fibres
are better than the natural ones for
most purposes. V ■ ) > [
Another1 example is rubber. War
, ,has taken aWay our normal source
of supply—the Far East. /But' in a
year or two we shall have the ca-
pacity for manufacturing artificial
rubber is vast quantities.. We shall
t\ever agaip huvq to depend upon an
imported supply f unless, we want to.'

It is beginning to loo|c now like
the,farmers are going fq be fa.-ed
with, a real problem in getting the
remarider * of theij- cotton gathered.
Trucks ^re coming in ^rom the black
land and hauling Out what hands we
bay?. There is one thing , we have
never been able to figure out, and
that is how an individual could think
h« ccyjld leave home and what he has
around him and ,majce more money
picking (otton ip a distant,, locality
than be copld home with good cot-
ton all around hjm. There is one
thing sure if our farmers, should
lose their cotton for the .lack of
hands to gather (t,. they will not
find conditions better when they
come, back to spend the winter.
It lodks now like the farm prob-
lem’is to be one of-the most critical
problems this nation is faced with.
