Shortage of Labor To Csrb Food Yield Froa Farms is 1643 Chicago, Sept. 18 (U.B The farm weekly Prairie Farmer, citing a survey of four great mldwestern agricultural states, said today that an acute labor shortage would cut 1943 food production seriously and urged the government to Institute a farm labor draft. As a result of the labor short age In Illinois, Indiana, Wiscon sin and Michigan, the newspa per said,, many farmers have been forced to disperse entire dairy herds, others have been forced to reduce their plans for livestock and crop production next year, and some have sold their farms. Of 81 counties studied In the survey, three-fourths were found to be suffering from a shortage of farm funds, the Prairie Far mer said. The newspaper cited as rea sons for the shortage high wages in industry often from five to 10 times a farm hand s wages and the draft. All of the largest northward flowing glaciers of the Alaska mountain range rise on the slopes of Mt. McKinley and Mt. Foraker. Most of the valleys and lowlands of the region were at one time filled with glacial ice. Closlsf Uhm (or CluaMed ads a. m.
