Marion county production goals for the 1942 defense program-calling
chiefly for increases in milk, eggs, hogs, chickens
and turkeys for meat, fiber flax, and farm gardens were estab
lished and approved by the county USDA defense board in an

S American humorist
a iffiMi
use planners and AAA committee
men.. The county board drafted two
recommendations to the state
board, one calling- for priorities
for flax processing equipment
and stressing- the need for im
mediate action in expanding
plant facilities to take care of
the 1942 crop, and the recom
mendation that canners be urg
ed to make arrangements in In
creased labor costs In writing
1942 contracts.
Starting about November 1,
AAA community committeemen
will call on every farmer in the
county to help him work out
plans for stepping up production
of those commodities which the
grower is in the best position to
expand, Chairman Tate said. In
preparation for this sign-up cam
paign, those who will take part
will attend a training meeting
Thursday.
"Farmers can prepare for this
farm-to-farm canvass now by
taking a sort of inventory of
present production, and by study
ing the possibilities for increas
ing the needed commodities,"
Tate said.
"While this county's 1941 pro
duction figures show a marked
increase over 1940, we're going
to have to engage in an all-out
effort in 1942 to produce the
foods needed to supply one-fourth
of Great Britain's needs and to
meet a vastly expanded market
at home."

Breaks Badly
Large Scale Sellin
tr
Intensified by Fear
Of New War Moves -
NEW YORK, Oct 1 --(-Commodity
and security markets were
swept into a precipitant decline
Thursday by large scale . selling
stemming from intensified war
fears.
Speculative staples suffered one
of the widest breaks of recent
times in absorbing an avalanche
of liquidation started by Wash
ington reports that President
Roosevelt had put off a cabinet
meeting to conrer with his naval
and military advisers.
The stock market decline, run
ning from fractions to around 2
points, was a continuation of a
major trend which developed
early in the month. However, it
was the steepest not only of the
recent move but since April 8.
The Associated Press 60-stock
average had a net decline of .8
of a point at 40.4, the lowest
since June 6. Transactions rose
to 841,360 shares, best since Sept
25, from 483,400 Wednesday. .
Among the weaker shares were
Bethlehem Steel and Chrysler,
both at new lows for. the year,
U. S. Steel, Goodrich, U. S. Rub
ber, Boeing, Douglas, Glenn Mar
tin, American Telephone, Dow
Chemical, Allied Chemical, Johns
Manville, Santa Fe and Great
Northern. Pfd. Case, Eastman and
Du Pont slipped 3 or more.
Wool in Boston
BOSTON, Oct. 18 (AP) (USDA)
Moderate quantities of fine foreign
grown wools were moving in the Bos
ton market. A number of inquiries
were being received for the low South
American wools. Sales of domestic
wools consisted mostly of small quan
tities needed for immediate use. Or
iginal bag territory wools running
bulk fine wools of good French comb
ing length brought $1.05-81.07 scoured
basis, and average to short French
combing wools brought S1.02-S1.05,
scoured basis.
