They will help the French to grow
2,000.000 more tons of food.
The idea of reinforcing the waning
agricultural strenuth of France with
American tractors originated with
Henry Morcenthau, Jr. The Food Ad
ministration has dcslcnated Henry
Moreanthau. Jr.. to follow the mach

tion. The first 100 tractors were sent
to France on the deck of a naval
transport and the entire number will
reach there In plenty of tlmo for
spring plowlnu. ...
The tractora will operate mainly In
the battle-scarred portion of northern
France which has been re-taken from
the Germans. There property lines
have been largely obliterated. The
