individual house on one or an
other of his plots, but this is Im
probable. He will be more likely
to live in a multi-family house
in an adjacent village, walking
back and forth.
.
HE may rent from anybody
a decided Lord Somebody
or other, or a farmer who would
rather rent his land out than to
work it. In the Evesham area
the corporation of Worcester urv
der a luw passed back in 1914,
has bought several thousand
acres of land and rents it to these
small holders. Cash rent is the
rule.
They can BUY, but in this area
less than 5 per cent own their
land. Lack of the money with
which to pay for It is normally
given as the reason for non
ownership. They can buy on
long terms, 20 years or more, but
there just doesn't seem to be
enough left over to meet the
payments.
LET'S consider an individual (to
know people you have to be
able to think of them as persons;
you can't KNOW people in the
mass). . " ?
His name Is Hall, certainly a
good old English name. He is a
SKILLED farmer, in his way as
highly skilled as Mr. Bennett, the
owner of Lower Wick, or Captain
Bomford. He grows vegetables,
as most of them In the Evesham
small holder area do, and he
knows every variety and every
strain; he comes near to having
personal knowledge of every
plant. He will say: "Look at this
marrow plant; I've taken a dozen
marrows off it already, and look
what it has left. It's a good one.1
- lie has three holdings, totaling
11 acres. He Is lucky. He has
mi individual house on one of
them. He and his family, In
cluding his wife's two sisters,
do ALL the work. Ho makes a
comfortable living, according to
his standards. He is happy and
contented.
He is AMBITIOUS, us proved
by the fact that he has THREE
holdings. The beauty of the
Evesham system is that it leaves
room for ambition.
WE come now to something
that touches an American
oddly. Mr. Hall, around 50, or
maybe a little less, relates that
lie started as a farm worker, but
is now a "MASTER man." As
lie liters the words, his shoulders
unconsciously square a little, his
chin lifts, he stands a bit more
proudly.
There is no posing; it is all
utterly unrealized on his part;
lie Is wholly unselfconscious. But
thoro is music in his voice as the
words pass his lips, deeptoned
music.
This term "master man" is a
strange one to American cars.
This writer seeks enllghtment at
the first opportunity, and learns
it means that Mr. Hall is his
OWN MASTER, that he takes
orders from no one, that heateers
his own ship: If it goes on the
rocks it is HIS fault.
Unconsciously one's mind goes
hack to a picture already printed
there, within this day. On sev
eral occasions on these larger
farms workers when spoken lo
by their employer have answered
respectfully, using the word "sir"
and TOUCHING THEIR CAI'S
w hen the conversation ended.
INSTANTLY, when that pic
ture recurs, you understand that
squaring of Mr. Hall's shoulders,
the momentary (!-!ep, singing tone
in his voice. ,

on the farms it is becoming
By Charles V. Stanton
Cessation of hostilities and surrender of enemies
Europe and the Pacific brings to an end an organization
which, in out" opinion, is entitled to far more credit than it
has ever received. The Roseburg Victory council was or
ganized for the duration only and now ceases to exist. It
was formed for the exclusive purpose of aiding in success
ful prosecution of the war. There is no definite measure
to the results it has achieved, but it is evident, beyond any
question of doubt, that a most valuable contribution was
accomplished.
The Roseburg Victory council .consisted of a group of
Roseburg business and professional firms and individuals
who united to sponsor advertising pertaining to the war
effort. Through weekly contributions of funds, this group,
setting an original pattern for community cooperation, has
attracted nation-wide attention.
The early days of the war clearly produced one outstaml
ing requirement the need for funds with which to sponsor
advertising on behalf of emergency activities.
The American people are advertising conscious. When
the public must be reached, the most effective way of pre
smiting the message is by advertising. Men placed in
charge of both military and home-front activities quickly
realized the importance of advertising. - In fact, for the
first timo in history,. the Army and the Navy, prior to Pearl
Harbor, had been using paid advertising in newspapers to
gain recruits, realizing such outstanding results that recruit
ing through paid advertising is expected to be followed in
peacetime, when men are needed for either or both services.
Declaration of war ended paid advertising campaigns by
the military services, but there arose a program of local
sponsorship. The feder-al government began asking busi
ness men in every community throughout the nation to
sponsor advertising. Upon newspapers was placed the task
of soliciting merchants, industrial firms, professional men
and others to carry government messages in their adver
tising space. In many communities sponsorship of war-aid
advertising was handled entirely on an individual basis,
each advertiser paying for spaco in his local paper to pre
sent campaigns connected with the war effort.
But Roseburg merchants, badly handicapped, with man
power shortages, had sufficient problems without daily so
licitation by a newspaper advertising salesman peddling gov
ernment ads. On the other hand, the News-Review didn't
have the salesmen. So, out -of necessity, the Roseburg Vic
tory council was born. Starting with 75 firms and indi
viduals, membership has been almost constant throughout
the war period. The Roseburg plan was widely copied
throughout the nation. Special certificates of appreciation
were sent out to members from national war bond head
quarters, in connection with one of the early war bond
drives. An Honor Roll program originated and sponsored
by the Roseburg Victory council attracted high commenda
tion at national headquarters and its pattern, only slightly
modified, was used in connection with the last bond cam
paign.
Through the Victory council alone 14,180 inches of paid
advertising appeared in the News-Review during the
period of the war in support of war bond sales, recruiting
for the various branches of service, Red Cross campaigns,
and numerous other activities. Victory council advertising
was equal to 8(ii full pages, or the equivalent of complete
issues of the Nt'ics-Revivw daily for more than two weeks.
Members of the Victory council during the war period
contributed $5,055 to the advertising fund, which was ex
pended under the direction of the retail merchants commit
tee of the Roseburg Chamber of Commerce.
The Victory council, of course, cannot be credited exclu
sively with sponsorship of war-aid advertising, for there
has been much individually contributed space, particularly
by national advertisers and chain store groups. But we
believe it is mora than more coincidence that Douglas
county consistently held one of the top spots in war bond
buying until the last campaign when, because of the news
print shortage, the Ncicx-Rcricw was unable to publish all
the war bond advertising the Victory council was prepared
to sponsor. It was the only campaign in which Douglas
county failed to place -n the upper bracket.
The Roseburg Victoi.v council, in our opinion, made an
important contribution to the war effort. Its members, we
believe, have a right to foci very proud of their participa
tion. For their cooperation in relieving the S'cics-Rcricw
of the task of constant solicitation, a job we were unable
to handle, we are extremely grateful. We feel that every
Douglas county citizen should take pride in the coopera
tive program so succesfully undertaken and maintained
throughout the period of the war by this organization.

Lend-Lease Flow
From U. S. Hears
Its Conclusion
WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.
AP) Lend-lease, a 45-billion-dollar
pipeline to victory, is clos
ing down.
President Truman has decided
to end the mutual aid program
under which this country has
poured more than $40,000,600,000
worth of weapons, food and
equipment to bolster the Allied
fight against the Axis.
In return, some $5,000,000,000
has been chalked up as reverse
lend-lease. ;
With victory now won on all
fronts, letters of notification al
ready have been drafted to ad
vise foreign purchasing missions
here that they will have to make
some other arrangements for
future supplies.
Presumably, this will bring a
heavy demand for loans from the
recently-expanded export - import
bank. Capitalization of that fed
oral lending agency was in
creased from $700,000,000 to
$3,500,000,000 shortly before con
gress recessed.
Presumably, too, the action will
lead to an early decision by this
country on which goods it wants
returned and which are to be
left with the recipients for some
iiuurc settlement.
London Faces Problem
Even before Mr. Truman's de
cision to terminate lend-lease op
erations became known, an in
fluential London financial maga
zine took note of the fiscal prob
lem Britain will face in the im
mediate post-war period.
The publication, the Economist,
suggested In effect that Great
Britain obtain a $,000,0O0,000
cash grant from the United
States to permit her to pay off
her foreign debts at about 50
cents on the dollar, with a note
for the balance.
The United Kingdom has been
the chief recipient of lend-lease
aid. From Inception of the pro
gram i achrMiiO-Trum emfwyp s
gram in March, 1041, to last
April 1, latest date for which
figures are available, she re
ceived goods valued at $12,-775,000,000.
