AAAAAAAAAAAA Membet O RECOGNEWSPAPER PUBLISHERS 4-ss QCIATION Another Producer Called The sale by Beryl Bengs today is typical among farmers in this area. He goes to war tomorrow. Mr. Bengs had a 20-acre ranch, milked 12 cows, kept 10 brood sows and raised his own feed. He turned out many pounds of butterfat, veal and pigs and was a real producer of farm products necessary to the war needs. In that way he was giving greater service to his country than he will as a buck private. And his case may be applied to a dozen or more farmers in this locality who were producing the sinews of war, the lack of which is now agitating the heads of the government who are beginning to fear as to how we are going to eat next year and who is going to feed our armies. This is in no way intended as unpatriotic. Beryl Bengs urged no exception for himself further than to state his case to the Selective Board. If these far mers, all over the country, are needed first for army service, no American will object. But the operation of the Selective Service Act is beginning to show de fects in the law which should be corrected as soon as possible—without waiting for election day to pass. Real farmers cannot be replaced by women or old men or inexperienced hands. Farm production is a real job which cannot be done in a weak way or with the proposed parity of wages. The administration of such affairs is now urging farmers to produce heavily next year. If the pres ent draft is continued on farm owners and good far mers until next spring we will have an immense ar my and a nation illy prepared to supply the fight ing boys with proper foods. Thousands of non-pro- ducers are yet uncalled in cities—men who do not produce beef, veal, pork, mutton, butter fats, feeds and foods, and who by no hurried training can be made to do so. Years ago it was commonly alleged that anybody could farm but now farming is a skill ed occupation that cannot be easily re-established. THEY WOULD READ FOUR AD TOO, IF IT APPEARED HERE r ’ s.

Maintaining that America lives be cause religion lives, the Laymen’s National Committee announced today their sponsorship of a nation-wide Bible Week program to call attention again to the faith upon which Amer ica is founded. The Committee, itself, was founded two years ago by 11 laymen who affirmed that the two factors that have built America were "man’s con sciousness of God” and his daily la bor with its earnings. From 11 men, the group has grown into a nation-wide organization com posed of representatives of Protes tants. Roman Catholics and Jews. Its efforts to stimuate religious thinking by every means at its command have met with a success beyond all ex pectations, it was stressed. ** arad - .ail Si Affirmation of Faith "Now comes Second Annual Bible Week in an hour when religious thinking is of the utmost impor tance." the Committee’s announce ment continued. "Rightly supported. Second Annual Bible Week can be made a magnificent affirmation of our faith in the God of our fathers and a fundamental factor in strength ening the hearts of the millions of us who labor at home and the great S' host of us who fight at the front, on land, sea and air."
