FRACTURES LEFT LEGIN FALL ON ICE

Michigan Press AssociationLetter from Gene Alleman.

State Capitol, Lansing—A waveof agricultural advertising bills isabout to reach the Michigan statelegislature.

When the state supreme courtupheld the constitutionality of theapple advertising tax, whereby alevy of one cent a bushel is as-sessed on the grower, (who adds itto the consumer's bill just as theretailer does with the sales tax),the court opened the dykes to simi-lar legislation.

Dairy interests propose a similaradvertising levy in the hope ofstimulating consumption of (milkand butter.

Cherry growers and canners alsoadvocate a state cherry tax to solvethe recurrent problem of how todispose of a canned cherry surpluswhich, in 1941, is the greatestknown in many years. The cherryindustry ' of Michigan has beenweakened by a competitive feudamong leaders, and this co-opera-tive action may not be easily ef-fected.

Even egg producers—and Hamil-ton in Allegan County is the "eggcapital" of Michigan—are studyingthe court ruling carefully. As theHamilton co-operative has shown,eggs can be controlled in flavor,while scientific processing can pre-serve the "fresh" taste from sixmonths to a year, and the averageconsumer can't tell the difference!

The bill by Rep. Maurice E. Post,(R) Rockford, to take the commis-sioner of agriculture out of politicsby making him responsible to thestate board of agriculture (govern-ing body of Michigan State Col-lege) is beginning to back-fire.

WASHINGTON, NATION -BUILDER.

In honoring George Washingtonon the anniversary ,of his birthday,people often think .of him as simplya great military genius. He wasfar more tiaan that. When theRevolutionary War .emded with atriumph of Ms army, the UnitedStates was still a very frail littlecountry. A good strong offensivewould probably have .swept awayits government.

When Washijs^ton jreiared aspresident in 1797, the country wasestablished on a firm foundation,and was making rapid progress.This gaim was largely due to thewisdom of the f ramers of the con-stitution. When they attempted toform a new system of goverrwnent,they found the 13 original ^colonieswere >a group of loosely federatedstates, each so independent tliat thecountry could hardly be called anation. The fraimers of the Goasti-tution welded it into a strong com-bination, in which it could makeitself respected in the world.

Washington's influence as presi-ded was an enormous factor incre^ing this stronger position. TheUnited Sfeates could hardly havegained independence if it had notbeen for the military and navalhelp it got from fiance. TheFrench had no paitfaeular love forAmerica, but they were hostile togngjand. TJiey felt that by helpingAmerica, tijey lpjr| gnglsmd. ManyAmericans feared that as a result, jfl&Bae weuW become the real rulerover oui4 country, and be no betterruler than England had been.

The intelligent judgment ofWashington steered the country*;through those dangerous situations.His liberal mind drew adherentsfrom, all points of view. He framedsuch wise and just policies ag to•unify the nation, and promote itsprosperity. He fm&& a fr^mp ofiniOre of less hostile states, andwhen his service ended, it was areal nation, marching steadilyalong the high road of progress.

R§fARY'S BIRTHDAY.Where toj traveler?

Texas, or Amritsa-r| India? Kan-sas City> Missouri^ or Kau-ai, Ha-waii? Twin Bridges, Montana, or'Twickenham, England? Unadilla,New York, or Unley, Australia?Travelers have long since becomeaccustomed to the familiar cog-wheel road signs which informthem that "Rotary Meets on Tues-day," or whatever the day mightbe.

Whenever columnists, journalists,authors, lecturers, politicians, orplaywrights wish to refer to atypical group of American busi-nessmen, they usually think of Ro-tary. To put it another way, Ro-tary has become an Americaninstitution—but by no means is itlimited to the United States. Ofcourse, Rotary was born in Chicago,but during its 36-year existence ithas been adopted by business andprofessional men of more thanthree-score countries or regions.

In Rotary's membership aremore than 210,000 men. They, col-lectively, speak almost every lan-guage, embrace almost every po-litical belief, represent almostevery religion. But there is some-thing fundamentally the sameabout all these men, about all men,and it is that fundamental same-ness which has led to universalacceptance of Rotary.

Rotary has one ideal—the Idealof Service. Perhaps you are notfamiliar with the term, "Ideal 'ofService," but you have heard of,the Golden Rule, and that, basically,is Rotary's Ideal of Service—appli-cation of the Golden Rule by Ro-tarians in all phases of everydaylife, And it. works! Few idealsare practical, sadly enough, but Ro-tary is. In union there is strength,and each Rotary Club is a union ofbusiness and professional execu-tives—one man from each recog-nized line of business. It is a un-ion held together by the cement offriendship and good will and fel^lowship. It's easy to see how sucha group posseses and exercises tre-mendous potentialities for the ac-complishment of good. Crippledchildren, delinquent youth, collegestudents in dire financial straits,the blind, the poor, the underprivi-leged—these and others who haveneeded help have seen Rotary'spotentialities applied. Rotary alsohas brought about betterment oflferences. It's true. Retards 210,000

would Washington do or say today? The question is often askecj. It cannever be answered precisely. In accepting the presidency, Washington mini-

mized his talents, saying he was "without that competency of political skill, abili-ties and inclination which are necessary to manage the helm/'

But he did make a pledge to the American people.>'• "Integrity and firmness are all 1 can promise. These, be the voyage long orshort, shall never forsake me, although I may be deserted by all men."

INTEGRITY and firmness were all fee premise^ b'lit tliese were enough to pullthe young Republic through in "uncertain, tenuous years. North Caro-

lina had not yet ratified the CdHittitutid'h, Rhode Island declared it never would,when Washingtdfi was inaugtiaNited. Vermont was even then trying to negotiateseparate recognition at -L&nd&n.

It needed Washington's firmness and integrity to make the foundations of theRepublic solid.

* * *

IN THE past few years passages from the Farewell Address have beep quoted per-haps more frequently than anything else in America. Two sentences stand out:" TIs our true and settled policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any

portion of the foreign world."''Taking care always to keep ourselves, by suitable establishments, on a respect-

able defensive posture, we may safely tryst to temporary alliances for extraordi-nary emergencies."

What would Washington do today? We may dispute over the words he left us,and over their application today. But we can be certain that today, as in the earlydays of the Republic, Washington would give us the same pledge:

"Integrity and firmness are all I can promise. These, be the voyage long ornever forsake me, although I may be deserted by all men."

business and professional ethicsthrough the adoption by trade andcraft associations of codes of ethicsof .fair business and professionalstandards.

Rotary has a fourth object whichreads: "The advancement of inter-national understanding, good will,and peace through ia world fellow-ship of business and professionalmen united in the ideal of service."Does that impress you as beingsomewhat futile in view of themess the world is in at present?

Don't you agree that the condi-tions which lead to war, the basicconditions, are mistrust, hatred,misunderstanding, and intolerance,on an international scale, whetherin the fields of politics or econom-ics ? And doesn't it appear reason-able that if we could replace those

Cass City, Michigan. CASS CITY CHRONICLE— FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1941. FA6E THREE.

Vitamiiis NeverWorried Grandpa

Great Grandpa never tasted atomato salad—a stringless greenbean—or a grapefruit. G r e a tGrandpa never knew the indecision"that comes from assembling a mealfrom, a cafeteria counter. GreatGrandpa never saw a "super mar-ket." And to him vitamins, pro-tective foods or fresh spinach inDecember were unknown.

These are but a few of the de-velopments that have broughtchanges in our food habits sinceCJ-reat Grandpa's day. What some•of these changes have been andhow they affected our diets arepointed out by staff members at"Michigan State College.

Today we eat fewer natural andmore processed and fabricatedfoods than we did before. Today

a far greater varietyavailable. Tastes have

•changed. Arid there is much lessdifference than before in the foods-eaten in different parts of thecountry—or from season to sea-son.

Encouraging is the sharp in-crease in the past 50 years in theamount consumed of milk, toma-toes, citrus fruits and leafy greenvegetables.

These are "protective" foods,noted for mineral elements andvitamins in which diets are likelyto fall short.

Because Americans have come toassociate whiteness in other foods"with goodness, they often eat whiteflour, white sugar and similar kindsof foods to the exclusion of others.As a result, unwise food choicestend to offset the benefit of in-creased use of protective foods.And diets as they stand today oftenare short in calcium, and in vita-mins A, Bl, and C.

One new trend may lead to publicadoption of the new "enriched"flour, which mills plan to put onthe market soon. This flour willbe enriched with vitamins and oth-er food values in which American-diets are low.

Potato WinnersReveal Methods

How does a potato grower pro-duce yields two or three timesthose obtained by other growers?

That was a popular question re--cently on the campus at MichiganState College when the state'sleading pair of potato growerswere named champions duringFarmers' Week.

The champions are J. D. Robin-son, Pellston, and Clayton Ford,Cornell. Robinson produced 590bushels to the acre on a 17-acrefield o'f russet rural variety grown;as certified seed. Ford cropped 450

variety, grown as tablestock.Methods were somewhat similar

to those practiced by the 160 grow-ers who became eligible in 1940for membership to Michigan's 300-bushel potato club. Spraying tocontrol blight seemed highly im-portant, as one of the 300-bushelmen reported Ms neighbor got only16 bushels to the acre when heneglected to spray his crop, where-as on his 'own farm the blightsprays permitted a 450 bushel anacre yield.

On Robinson's farm the operatorused 1,500 pounds of 2-8-18 ferti-lizer to the acre, used 30 bushelsof seed an acre planted 11 inchesapart in 30-inch rows and sprayedeight times.

Ford did not have Robinson'sirrigation equipment, so his ferti-lizer was lighter. Ford applied500 pounds of 4-16-16 fertilizer anacre, used 18 bushels of seed andsprayed nine times during thegrowing season.

SOIL LOSSES VARY.

How a sloping field, mismanaged,can lose 150 tons of topsoil from an;acre in a year's erosion has beendemonstrated in a series of testsconducted by the Berrien Countysoil conservation service. The fieldwas Hillsdale loam and had morethan a 13 per cent slope. A smallstrip was cultivated up and downthe slope for the test. In an ad-joining strip the loss was slowedto 26 tons an acre with cultivationacross the slope and with sod strips.But where another test strip was.all in sod the sloping field lost atthe rate of but one-fifth of a tonof soil in a year.

Tells of FilingFarm Income Tax

More farmers than usual inMichigan will be'filing federal in-come tax reports for 1940 becausefarm income levels rose during theyear 'and because the mdnimumsfor married and for single personswere lowered by the federal gov-'ernment.

As an aid in filing reports, somepractical help has been preparedby E. B. Hill, head of the MichiganS|ate College farm management.He lists 36 typical questions andprovides the answers from informa-tion obtained from the office of thedeputy collector of internal revenueat Lansing. j

Copies of v these questions andanswers are available for refer-ence in all offices in the state ofcounty agricultural -agents andSmith-Hughes agricultural teach-ers. Filing time deadline is March15. . ;

Farmers who have been using theMichigan farm account books willhave a far easier time answeringnecessary questions in filing re-ports and paying taxes, advises.Professor Hill. The books simpli-fy the tabulation of informationrequired by the federal govern-ment, j

Some of the questions answeredin the advice include problems ofincome from rented land, of part-nership farming, of listing familyor dependent minor labor in farmwork, details of estimating depre-ciation and handling time sales of .crops and livestock. {

Professor Hill also lists offices iof internal revenue deputy collec-1tors located in Ann Arbor, Bay!

j City, Battle Creek, Benton Harbor,!

i Flint, Grand Rapids, Houghton,I Iron Mountain, Jackson, Kalamazoo, |Lansing, Marquette. Muskegon, Pe- jtoskey, Port Huron, Pontiac andjSaginaw. With the address ofeach office he names the countiesincluded in the office's territory.

Farmers should first obtain theproper form by writing to the col-lector of Internal Revenue at De-troit or by calling at one of thedeputy collectors' offices. Forms

may be obtained from some banksand postofficesv Quite complete in-structions accompany the Hankform's. Additional aid may be ob-tained from the collectors' officer.

Old Age PensionsSenate resolution C, introduced

by Sen. Jos. Baldwin, (R) Albion,/would earmark 10 per cent of thestate gasoline tax refund annually(five and six million dollars) forold age pensions and to retire thestate deficit. It would require aconstitutional amendment.

Rising recognition of more ade-quate pensions recently promptedstate representatives to over-ridethe house ways and means commit-tee and to add $161,000 to a de-ficiency bill.

Both parties are bidding for fa-vor of the "oldsters," the Town-send bloc. No action is expected,however, until 'after the April elec-tion. The same observation can bemade about the $46,000,000 schoolappropriation bill of the MichiganEducation Association.

Hoover PresentsNew Plans to SaveHungry in Europe

c^ «/ •*•

Asks British and 'Germans toTry Soup Kitchens in Bel-gium as Military Test

Chicago—(Special) New plans tosave the inhabitants of the occupied-democracies in Europe from starva-tion were presented by former•President Hoover at a mass meet-ing, held in the Opera HouseAuditorium here last Sunday night.

In expressing his appreciation tothe two thousand public bodies whohave supported this movement toaid these unfortunates, and thesixty thousand who have writtenletters of approval, Mr. Hoover ex-plained the purpose of the Commit-tee was to expose to fee world thefacts of the food situation and toraise a voice in behalf ©f those tensof millions of innocent men, women,and children, now suffering fromwant of nourishment.

Speaking as Honorary -Chairmaaof the Committee on Food for theSmall Democracies, he made publicthe proposals, submitted to theBritish and German governmentsa few weeks ago, to establish SoupKitchens in Belgium as an initialexperiment to test but whetherthese people can be saved withoutmilitary advantage to either side.

There is nothing new in this war"March of Hunger," Mr. Hoo-ver told his audience. The conse-quences of great wars are alwaysfamine am! pestilence. Tlie Wor!<5War of 25 years ago brought hungerto three hundred million people. Inthe present conflict it is comingfaster and with more violence. To-day nearly three hundred millionpeople are on rations more drastic,except in Germany and Great Brit-ain, than at the end of the thirdyear in the last war. In this creep-ing famine the most immediate dan-ger aad greatest suffering is amongthe seventy mil-lion people in thedemocracies which have been over-run by the' German armies.

Two weeks ago the Committee'sAmerican experts in Belgium re-ported that within a month the cityand town population consisting ofover eight million people would bewithout food unless supplies werebrought in somewhere, somehow.

NEW PROPOSALSIn presenting the new proposals,

Mr. Hoover said, "You are awarethat this Committee has made propo-sals to the belligerent governmentstnat completely organized food con-trol should be set up for the peopleson the lines of the last war. Thoseproposals would have given time toorganize prevention. They are theultimate necessity. But a distractedworld is slow to believe, and wewere reluctantly compelled to con-clude that it must be confrontedwith ghastly reality before actioncould be hoped for. That ghastlyreality has arrived in Belgium.Furthermore, while I do not agreeto the grounds for the rejection ofour previous proposals, yet if thesepeople are to be saved, we mustseek to meet those objections byproving our case in action.

"Therefore a few weeks ago, welaid before the British and GermanGovernments the following sugges-tions:

"First: That we make an initial-Experiment in Belgium to test outwhether these people can be savedwithout military advantage toeither side.

"Second: That this test comprisefeeding only through soup kitchens,where the people come to get theirfood and thus there can be no ques-tion of feeding Germans.

"Third: That at the beginning weprovide for one million adults andtwo million children; the adul-ts toreceive half a pound of bread andan allowance of soup, the childrento receive special food in addition,including preserved milk. Thiswould require about 50,000 tons amonth, of which about one-halfwould be breadstuffs and one-halfmeats, fats, and food for children.

"Fourth: That the German Gov-ernments agree there is to be norequisition of native food.

"Fifth: Both Governments to giveRelief ships immunity from attack.

"Sixth: The whole to be under thesupervision and checks of someneutral body.

"It is my belief that the Germansshould cooperate to secure some•breadstuffs from continental sources.But for meats, fats, and food for'children there are no sources ofsupply on the Continent. That mustcome from overseas,—and that re-quires cooperation from the Britishto pass the blockade.

"If we can make this experimentwork in Belgium then such a plancan be extended to the other de-mocracies. It is primarily devotedto saving the unemployed destituteaad the children.

"These Governments have thisplan under consideration.

Mr. Hoover was of the opinionthat the relief of these countrieswould not prejudice the British andwould be of no gain to the Germans.

The countries benefited are notseeking charity, and would defrayall expenses. The amount exportedfrom America would simply use oursurplus food.

"To those who say it cannot bedone," said Mr. Hoover, "the replyis simple—at least let us try it andif we fail that ends our effort.
