have never seen a stage play in their young lives, try out for parts

The same situation was reported
for rice, with the surplus producing
areas of southeastern Asia still not
in full production.
Finance will be a major problem
in agricultural trade in 1947-48, the
department said. With the tempo-
rary wartime expedients of lend-
lease and United Nations Relief and
Rehabilitation administration out of
the epicture, the volume of foreign
imports will depend on the amount
of United States funds appropriated
for foreign relief, the buying power
that importing countries can muster
out of the receipts from their own
exports, out of gold and dollar re-
serves, and out of loans.

The welfare committee of the
town decided to form a band, and
those wishing to join were in-
structed to fill out a form. Among
those who did was the blacksmith,
and he was now being interviewed.
“I see you would like to join the
band, and that you would prefer
a cornet," said the welfare official.
“Have you any particular quali-
fications?”
, “No,” said the blacksmith, “but
I d like to learn, and I could put
in a good bit of practice.”
“The funny thing is,” said the
official, “that I have forty names
here, and you are the only one
who wants to play the cornet. All
the others have asked for the big
drum.”
"‘Well, don’t spoil your band for
me,” said the blacksmith. “Give
me a drum as well!”

Not Possible to Make
Hay While Sun Shines
Too often rain comes before the
hay can be field cured or placed in
the barn. Bam-drying is a system
designed to overcome the weather
hazard in making hay. New York
station specialists point out that it
is possible to produce high quality
hay with barn dryers when they
are used wisely. Unless drying can
be accomplished in 7 to 10 day,
moldy hay or a product of low feed-
ing value may result.

I have seen what being too hun-
gry does. I have seen it in the Unit-
ed States army, on shipboard and
among ■ foreign peoples. It does
something to your brain that just
can’t be explained in terms of every-
day, easy American language.
The American people will do their
part, collectively, to help the rest
of the world over this ugly gulch,
partly because we are decent peo-
ple, partly because we don’t want
that “something strange” to hap-
pen to their brains which will make
them the prey of any evil political
influence which exists.
The American people, individually,
can help in another way. They can
send some food to the people whose
addresses they know and they can
do it efficiently, cheaply, quickly,
through an institution called CARE.
C-A-R-E stands for Cooperative
for American Remittances to Eu-
rope.
It is a non-partisan, non-profit in-
stitution which has the blessing
of the United States government.
Through CARE you can send
packages, well packed, containing
carefully chosen food of the kind
most needed and other materials of
which there is a tragic lack.
A $10 food package delivers 40,963
calories. (The minimum ration in
Germany is 1,500 calories a day.
They aren’t getting that.)
A blanket package at the same
price provides two all-wool army
blankets, scissors, needles, thread
and two sets of heels and soles for
shoes.

A new package, same price, de-

cotton goods! Clothes are still not

Here are the countries to which you
can send the cotton package: Aus-
tria, Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Fin-
land, France, Greece, Italy, Hun-
gary, Netherlands, Norway, Poland,
Romania and Germany (all zones
except Russian).
The food packages can be sent to
all the above, plus England, Wales,
Scotland and northern Ireland.
You’ll help Uncle Sam’s food

Proper Equipment and
Application Important
Many diseases and cases of con-
tamination are traceable to flies.
Spraying with DDT and other new
chemicals presents the first truly ef-
fective means of controlling flies.
DDT is amazingly effective for
several weeks. Flies landing on
treated surfaces die in a few min-
utes from a condition similar to de-
lirium tremens. The main steps to
a good fly control program are:
First: Clean up the breeding
places where flies lay their eggs.
Second: Spray DDT on all sur-
faces where flies gather. For this
work a sprayer developing some
pressure is needed. A garden type
compressed air or larger sprayer
will do the job efficiently. Around

cetera. On the farm, the ceilings

The gloomy picture was pre-
sented as the administration was in
the midst of an all-out effort to send
additional supplies to both Germany
and France to avoid a crisis that
could force reduced rations through-
out most of northern Europe.
Officials abroad railed at failure
of the German government to push
properly internal food collection,
and charged German producers
with hoarding their output.
The department sounded one
cheerful note in predicting some in-
crease in sugar, potato, and fats
and oils production, but reminded
health factors are greatly increased.
There is a serious milk-borne dis-
ease danger of using raw milk. This
may be entirely eliminated. With
many cities, counties and districts
demanding pasteurization of milk to

of value to owners of a small num-'
ber of cows who desire to retail their
excess milk supply. The only cer-
tain way to avoid disease from milk
is to heat it sufficiently to kill all

POSTAL RATES:
May Go Up
A measure embodying the first
general revision of postal rates
since 1879 which would add about
110 million dollars a year to post
office revenues has been introduced
in the house of representatives.
The bill provides for a 30 per cent
increase in parcel post rates and
would revise the air mail rate from
five to six cents an ounce. In
addition, the new plan would add
about 30 per cent a year to present
scales for second-class mailing of
newspapers and periodicals sent out-
side the county in which they are'
published.
Another provision would maintain
the current three-cent local and non-
local rate for first class mail beyond
the July 1 deadline when those rates
were slated to revert to the former
two-cent level.
The new rates would go into ef-
fect 60 days after the bill is passed
and signed by the President.

Reserve board economists ex-

pointing out that a downtrend in

inevitable.” The inconsistencies in
the national economy, which have
arisen out of the fact that, our econ-
omy is part rigged and part free,
will have to be eliminated.

fits through forcing higher wage
levels. Twice that many unorgan-
ized workers have not shared to an
equal extent in the wage increases.
A number of industries, able to
control prices, have driven them
upward. Others, at the same time,
have been held down by govern-
ment controls.
The main reason that farm and
food product prices soared after the
war was that there was little else
the consumer could purchase. Now,
with production making a come-
back, the previously scarce radios,
refrigerators, automobiles and so
on are competing for the consum-
er’s money.
Federal reserve board economists
say that farm prices are expected
to stabilize about 25 per cent under
the 1946 peaks. They also express
confidence that they can put the
brakes on any further inflation if
congress provides the necessary
assistance.
GIANT’S DEATH:
End of an Era?
The battleship Oklahoma, first oi
the so-called “super-dreadnaughts,”
might well be recorded in history
as an accurate symbol of the era
during which it ploughed the seas
for the U. S. navy—heroic but futile,
in her 31 yers of steel-clad exist-
ence she never fired a shot at an
enemy.
Based at Berehaven, Ireland, dur-
ing World War I, she saw no action;
and on December 7, 1941, five Japa-
nese torpedoes sent the sturdy old
ship lunging to the bottom of Pear]
Harbor before her crew could man
the guns.
Raised to the surface and then
abandoned as not worth salvaging,
the Oklahoma was consigned to the
scrap heap and taken in tow for the
last long voyage across the Pacific.
Suddenly, 540 miles northeast of
Pearl Harbor, the tragic battleship
listed heavily, as if tired of war and
its aftermath, and slipped into the
sea, three miles deep at that point,
for her final escape from the era of
violence that had been her lifespan,
END THE WAR:
Students Riot
Demonstrating violently in open
defiance of Chiang Kai-shek’s order
to quiet down, thousands of univer-
sity students in several Chinese cit-
ies fortified their demand that the
civil war be ended immediately by
calling for a general strike.
Declaring sternly that the student
riots were instigated by Commu-
nists, Chiang said they would be
quelled forcibly if necessary. The
students reacted with further pa-
rade and violence in Shanghai, Nan-
king and’ Peiping.
About 25,000 students were on
strike from 16 universities, with
their demands including everything
from a better system of grading pa-
pers to higher government living al-
lowances and an end to the war.

WASHINGTON.—Because of for-
eign crop losses, the world food sit-
uation will remain critical for the
1947-48 crop year, according to a
warning issued by the department
of agriculture. Although an in-
creased output among the principal
producing nations is foreseen, this
gain will be offset by declines in
grain production in nations which
normally import part of their food
requirements.
This shift in the supply picture
will mean a “somewhat greater

Wood describes the super-secret
; surroundings of the school, and what
happens to Russians who get curious
I about it (Siberia or the firing squad)
and goes on to describe the hush-
: hush atmosphere into which a stu-
dent is inducted:
“With matriculation, each student
takes a revolutionary or party name
by which he will be known in Com-
munist circles and outside activities.
Mark Aldanov in ‘The Fifth Seal’
tells of a party worker who had
so many aliases he forgot his bap-
tismal name."
According to Wood, the school has
a three-year course devoted pri-
marily to intensive indoctrination.
But there are also courses in labor
activities, party organization and
propaganda, as well as military tac-
tics and weapons.
When the student returns to his
own country, says Wood, “he must
join trade unions or liberal societies
—attend all meetings, pay dues
promptly, be eager for work, unite
others by party discipline until the
organization is blindly following the
party line in which he (the student)
is so well grounded.”
Wood points out that Moscow does
not consider revolution imminent in
this country.
But he claims they are preparing
for the psychological moment . . .
“and these peaceful preparations go
on for years through capable party
members burrowed into trade un-
ions, public offices, the police force,
liberal clubs and other sources of
information.” When the time comes
to attack a city, “the needed knowl-
edge of where to attack to paralyze
it will be at hand—even such facts
as the knowledge that a watchman
has a dog will have been recorded.”
“According to the time schedule
of the Communists,” says Wood, “a
city like Chicago could be captured
in less than 48 hours.”
Despite these frightening
words, Wood says this in con-
clusion: “The Soviet schools for
foreigners are not too alarming
when they are stripped of mys-
tery. It would be well to know
their 800-odd American alumni,
also their instructors and what
secret plotting is behind the for-
mal handshakes over a confer-
epee table or the clink of cock-
tail glasses at a banquet board.
It also will help when they know
that we know—an interesting
long-range job for our state de-
partment and FBI.”
End of quotation. These words
are the author’s and the views ex-
pressed not necessarily those of your
columnist. But Junius Wood is a
source “hitherto reliable” and I of-
fer him for what his report is worth.
He assured me today that his
sources are “old grads,” not nec-
essarily Leningrad and Stalingrad,
but. real alumni of this somewhat-
too-progressive school.

in the lounge.
Of course, you are likely to meet
Junius Wood anywhere, on an atoll
in the Pacific, tapping his pipe into
the crater of Mount Vesuvius, ford-
ing a fjord in a borrowed car, lost
in Grand Central or sipping vodka
in the Kremlin. So it wasn’t strange
to find him in. York, Pa.
As I write these lines, I have just
left Mr. Wood (at the National Press
club this time). He informed me
that some of the former “students
about whom he writes in the article
quoted below testified recently be-
fore a congressional committee.
Rep. Karl Mundt of South Dakota
read Wood’s article into the Con-
gressional Record, thus making it a
“public document.”
(Today a lady who signs herself
“Just Mary” writes me saying that
I should pretend I’m a “nice ole
Beagle hound” and “keep that
beezer” of mine “pointed down the
middle of the road.” She claims I
have the “darndest habit of
"schroochin’ over to the right.” I
hope the following won’t hurt her
feelings.)
Here are the quotes from the
Wood story, which originally ap-
peared in the April issue of “Na-
tion’s Business” under the title of
“Trained to Raise Hell in America.”
Background I know was gathered
by Wood while he was reporting
from Russia and I was bending over
a copy desk in the old Chicago Daily
News office whither Junius directed
his daily dispatches:
“Attention, ambitious young
men and women,” says Wood.
“A well-established and liberal-
ally endowed university offers
you free courses in factory sab-
otage, bomb making, kidnaping,
train wrecking, bank robbery,
fomenting armed mutiny—and
other techniques of violence and
