The Protein
Problem
By the year 2000, it is es
timated that world popula
tion will exceed 7 billion. As
the imputation grows, so too
will the problem of supplying
people with adequate food
and nutrition particularly
with protein, the most impor
tant of all nutrients.
Technologists estimate
that within 30 years, more
than !00 tons of protein will
be needed annually to fill
man's nutritional needs. Pos
sibly twice as much will be
needed to feed animals.
Meat proteins are by far
the most popular of all pro
teins, and are the most costly
to produce. The world popu
lation seems to have an in
satiable appetite for beef,
lamb, pork and other meats.
Scientists realize that if
our growing population is to
be supplied with adequate
protein, it may have to come
from relatively inexpensive
and easily grown vegetable
sources. Such unlikely
sources as cotton seed, pea
nuts, sesame and sunflower
seeds, even alfalfa and leaves
are being tested for conver
sion into nutritious foods.
Although not many of
these products are now com
mercially available, General
Foods Corporation has suc-
cesiully tested and marketed
o institutions such as
schools and hospitals a high
protein macaroni.
The company says it pro
vides a prototype of foods we
can expect in the future By
adding soy flour (an excellent
vegetable protein) and corn
flour to the wheat normally
used to make macaroni, it has
twice the protein content of
regular macaroni. Also the
protein quality is comparable
to that of milk, but costs
roughly the same as regular
macaroni.
Fathers shouldn't feel dis
couraged when their sons reject
their advice. It won't be
wasted-years later, the sons
will offer it to their own kids.

Fall seeded grains are showing considerable winter-kill in some
areas. As the weather warms into spring there is a flurry of
re-seeding activity.
The purpose of the intentions report is to assist growers in
making such further changes in their acreage plan as may appear
desirable. The acreage actually planted in 1973 may turn out to be
larger or smaller than indicated by reason of weather conditions,
price changes, labor supply, financial conditions, the agricultural
program, and the effect of this report itself upon farmers' actions.

Week emphasizes.
The growing menace and cost of crime becomes more serious
with every passing year, and the need for grass roots support of
year-round crime prevention programs is urgent. Now, as never
before, each individual must do some soul-searching to discover if
he has been guilty or disregarding the rights and property of others.
Or has he been hesitant to get "involved" when his aid might have
helped solve or prevent a crime? If the answer to any of these Is
"Yes", a shifting of personal priorities is In order.
Kvery crime from vandalism and shoplifting to bank robbery and
murder should be of concern to all citizens if we don't care, no one
else will. Moral degeneration and destruction of organized,
law-abiding society is the penalty for conducting lawlessness.
Crime prevention is the business of police and law enforcement
agencies. They need the support of a concerned citizenry everyday
of every week in the year.

SPRING COMES AGAIN
"When Spring unlocks the flowers to paint the laughing soil,"
wrote Reginald Heber, a wonderful thing happens: the Earth
bursts forth in a vibrant splash of color, and the air is sweet with
the scent of growing things. This year March 20 marks the official
beginning of Spring. The crippling snowstorms and floods which
accentuated a harsh winter are fast disappearing. In their place
will come light, gentle days filled with flourishing crops and home
gardens, children's laughters echoing from playgrounds and trips
to the serenity of the countryside, mountains or beach "to get away
from it all."
Spring is the eternal symbol of renewed life and happiness, with a
lesson to teach if man will but listen. In essence, the message is that
man's world will be only as good as he makes it. He can follow
nature's lead and channel his energies into constructive
directions-or he can destroy this planet. As this new season dawns,
let us hope that it brings greater freedom, peace and understanding
to a troubled world, and inspiration to the human race to rededicate
itself to creating a better way of life.
