Good Turns Of
Scouting For
Past 30 Years
Fore more than 30 years th
Boy Scouts of America havi
been best known for their Good
Turns. In our day to day li'
we sometimes smile good-natur-
?dly at these daily efforts to be
of assistance to others; during
times of s’ress our appreciation
has often been more active. The
hls'ory of «neh recent disasters
ns the New England hurricane o
1028, floods in the Missipsipn
t'nl’ev. to’-nadoe in the South
forest fires in the West—ever
such man-made emergencies as
/visits by Kings, Queens and
Presidents—invariably includes a
mention of the valuable service
rendered by these khaki-clad
youngsters with the cheery smile,
whetner the job be as color
guards, messengers or as aides to
rescue workers, the Boy Scouts
tiave won the nation’s esteem.
Those of us who entered the
period of the World War ignor-
ant of the values of Scouting
soon came to know about. Scouts
sold Liberty Bonds and Thrift
Stamps, they collected untold
tons of fruit pits for gas masks;
they located thousands of walnut
trees for the infant aircraft in-
dustry; they distributed literature
for the government. In scores of
other ways they contributed to
the nation’s war effort. Their rec-
ord is one of which they are
rightly proud.
The Boy Scouts are prepa
for a nationwide long-term Good
Turn. Paralleling in their own
way the government’s huge de-
fense program, they are launch-
ing their own program for
strengthening and invigorating
Democracy. Troops are being
built up to their full strength of
32 Scouts each. New emhpasis is
being given to advancement
through the Scout ranks, so that
every member will he at the peak
of his efficiency. Scoutmasters—
men who devote part of their free
time to developing better citizens
-—are working on plans for cop-
ing with emergency. In the light
of what Bov Scouts have done in
the past 30 years, these prepa-
rations for meeting hurricane,
earthquake, fire or any other
kind of disaster, are comforting.
They mean that, regardless of
what the rest of the world does
the Boy Scouts will he prepared.

losis in the United States, which
still takes a toll of 00,000 lives
a year despite a large decline in
the death rate for the disease,
can become a negligible public
health problem within a compara-
tively short time, according to
the statisticians of a major life
insurance company. They de-
clare that, with the full support
of the American people, the Na-
tional Tuberculosis Association
and its affiliated socities can re-
duce tuberculosis to a minor
cause of death within the near fu-
ture. and cau;e its practical eradi
cation within the next two dec-
ades. These objectives, the stat-
isticians stress, give added signif-
icance to the Association’s ctr
rent drive for funds to combat
uherculosis.
Thp fight against tuberculosis
in this country has met with out-
standing success. It is pointed
out that within a generation the|
disease dropped from first place
on the list of causes of death to
eighth, and is still rapidly falling.
The tuberculosis rtenth rate has
dropped 70 per cent in 30 years
and about 40 per cent in the
«nd Frank M. Chestnut, dairy
herdsman of the college dairy
herd with the top three animals
winning cash awards for their
owners. Fifty prizes in all are
offered to the owners of the
dairy cattle selected by the Ali-
Aimerioan committee.
All of the committee have
served as judges at nationally
retognied fairs and are well
known in their field. Prof. Dar-
nell judged Holsteins-Freisians
at the Missouri State Fair and
Mr. Chestnut at the Texas State
Fair.
Pictures ana records of all of
the eligibles are sent'the judges
and from these they make their
selection picking three animals
in each clegs and ranking them
in the order they consider them-
In several eases the judges have
seep the animals at the fairs
they have judged and have a fair-
’y complete knowledge of their
"inn points. The winners will h
announced shortly after the clos-
ing date of Pec. 11.

confined', it’ is pointed out, to
certain special groups of the pop

the campaign to fight the disease
is now to be centered. Among ne-
groes the tuberculosis death rate
is more than three times that of
white people. In some cities, in
fact, the rate is eleven times a-
hieh among negroes as among
whites.
How tuberculosis can be
"routed from the groups in which
it is still entrenched,” is explain-
I as follows:
“ It is essential to multiply
present efforts to discover cases
in the early stages of the disease
when there is still hope for a
thorough cure, for, of the tuber-
culosis who enter sanatoria, only
13 per cent are in the early

vast army of athletes, fans,

for the Celebration of the

much-needed funds for the Na

readily replied:

COLLEGE STATION, Dec’. 3
•—The outcome of the cotton mar-
keting quota referendum Satur-
day, December 7, will have a di-
rect effect on every cotton fann-
er in Texas and the rest of the
South.
For the votes of the hundreds
of thousand's of cotton producers
in nineteen States will determine
whether quotas will be in ef-
fect in 1941, whether the fann-
ers who cooperate with the Agri-
cultural Adjustment Adminis-
tration program will be protected
from those who refuse to comply,
and whether non-cooperators will
be penalized for their failure to
plant within their acreage allot-
ments.
That’s what the Texas AAA
committee, meeting in College
Station, point out to the cotton
producers of Texas, all of whom
ire eligible to vote in the refer-
endum, in a final statement be-
fore the voting begins at 9 a. m.
Satui-day.
The committee reminded fann-
ers that everyone who shared in
the proceds of a cotton crop in
1940 is eligible to vote, regard-
less of whether he is complying
with the AAA program. Two ex-
ceptions to this rule were men-
tioned: (1) those producing cot-
ton 1 1-0 inches or more in
staple length, which is not sub-;
ject to quoetas, and who are not,
producing other cotton, and (2)
those, such as husband, wife and
children, who participate,f in the
production of cotton under a
single rental oi; cropping agree-
ment or lease. In the latter case,
the person who entered into the
agreement or lease is eligible hut
the others are not.
No absentee voting by mail,
proxy or agent will be permitted,
but the voter who is outside his
own district on referendum day
may deposit his baliott in any
authorized quota ballot box.
After the balloting the votes
in each community will be re-
ported to the county committee
which will then transmit them
In the State AAA office where
they will he tabulated and report-
ed to Washington. A two-thirds
majority of nil votes cast favor-
ing quotas is neecssary for quo-
tas to be in effect in 1941.
