Truman Holds Experience Of F.R. Hope Of Nation In Both War And Peace By Ward Colwell United Press Correspondent Lamar, Mo., Sept. 1 (U.R) Sen. Harry S. Truman last night accepted the democratic vice-presidential nomination in a speech in which he pictured President Roosevelt as the na tion's great leader in time of war and its hope, both at home and abroad, in the years to come. The Missouri senator, return ing to the town of his birth for the notification ceremony, did not mention Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New York, the GOP presidential aspirant, but he cautioned repeatedly against "turning the destiny of the na- WANTED! Teletype Operator or Good Typist American Fruit Growers, Inc.

Starting the drive' for a fourth term for the President, Truman urged his re-election as a matter of protection for the nation, warning that the days ahead require a man of experi ence in the White House. "Mistakes once made cannot be unmade," he said. The nominee praised Mr. Roosevelt's wartime decisions, in collaboration with the other Allied leaders, as bringing "about the greatest succession of victories in the annals of warfare." But, he added, there was a dual purpose in all of Mr. Roosevelt's conference aimed at winning the war. He said the President also was preparing the groundwork for peace when he proposed lend-lease, helped draw up the Atlantic charter and held his conferences at Casablanca, Quebec, Cairo, Teheran and Washington. "It is a continuing process, already years under way, still years in prospect," Truman said. "We are, in effect, in our effort i to make this peace, very defi ! nitely in midstream."

Conally declared that the American people "will not cashier the commander-in-chief of the army and navy on the field of battle. The people of the United States away from the council table, with our Al lies, is being erected a world organization to preserve the peace and to chain aggressors who would again plunge the earth in blood." Connally praised Truman for his work with the Senate War Investigation committee. He said the Missourian was ably I qualified as a' member of the senate for the last 10 years to fill the "exalted duties" of the vice-presidency. Truman said the administra tion proposed to see that the $20,000,000,000 (B) worth of new plants, constructed for war, were used in peace to create employment for "our fighting men and men and women war workers," produce more and better consumer goods and raise even higher the American stan dard of living. "The achievement of the goals the administration has set fori the postwar nation will not be easy," he continued. "Already selfish interests are complain ing. "If they can, they will prevent new Independent enterprises from acquiring plants, hiring workmen and putting into civil ian production a flood of con sumer goods within reach of all." When the victory is won, he said, government must provide for returning veterans and war workers an assurance that their sacrifices were not in vain, that they will return to a country worth fighting for; that they will have an opportunity to earn a good living and "that the same humane principles and policies for the protection of the average man and woman, carried out under Franklin D. Roosevelt for the past 12 years, will be con tinued under his leadership." "Once again we have among us a group of isolationists as de termined, as bitter and as dan gerous as the ones which set themselves against the League of Nations and gave to Wilson's peace in 1920 a staj? in the back" he said. The carrying out of plans al ready made to overwhelm the i enemy and the formulation of! new policies as the occasion de-1 mands requires coordination of ' all our resources and all our people, he said, adding: I "We know from the success of 1 our efforts to date that, under the continued leadership of : President Roosevelt, these objec tives will be accomplished." i He said the nation never be-' fore had had a president who ' possessed such a knowledge of foreign leaders and their prob- lems. "None has ever so completely ' won their confidence and ad miration," he said, then warned: "We cannot expect any man wholly inexperienced in nation al and international affairs read ily to learn the views, objectives i and the inner thoughts of such divergent personalities as those dominant leaders who have guided the destinies of our cour ageous allies." Tomorrow's challenge, he said is today's problem. The proven leadership of our successes must continue, the nominee added, because "there is no substitute for experience, which can be gained only through years of application and service." Summarizing Mr. Roosevelt's social legislation and his steps toward preparedness for war, Truman then said "the welfare of this nation and its future, as well as the peace of the whole world, depends upon your de cision on Nov. 7. You should re elect Franklin D. Roosevelt president of the United States." Where To Locate Babson Writes To Homesceken Babson Park, Mass., Sept. 1 I have received numerous let ters asking advice as to what part of the United States is best for a small sustenance farm of five acres. Some are from peo ple who'are about to retire on a pension; while others of these letters are from the wives of army officers who are now in the service. These people arc not intending to operate com mercial farms. They merely want a place, close to a town or small city, where they can raise enough food to feed them and be independent. Then their only money expense will be for taxes and the cost of clothes, church offerings, recreation, etc. Selecting A State In addition to answering these letters I am passing my four con clusions on to my five million weekly readers. My first con clusion is that soil is of prime importance but that every state in the Union has one or more pockets of excellent soil. This means that you, yourself, can select the state in which to live. My second conclusion is that different good "soil pockets" should be considered according to your health, age, culture, recreational and other factors involved; also according to where your relatives are located. Hence, every reader can for himself select a state in which he should be happy; but needs help in selecting the state's special "soil pocket" best suited to his needs. This means that, after select ing a state in which you desire to locate, you should write to its agricultural department. Ad dress the letter to the state's capital city where the depart ment has its headquarters. Ex plain to the department just what you want to do, how much money you have to spend, etc. Tell them your age and of what your family consists. Bo sure to explain that you wish only a sustenance farm and that you do not wish to go into commer cial farming. Then ask their ad vice as to which part of their state will best fill your needs. You can continue to correspond until you find the right location. Choosing The Final Spot Be sure also to ask for a list of the localities in the state where either the slate or federal government has an agricultural experimental station. You need n't tell them the reason for ask ing this question, but you need the answer in order to check their answers to your other questions. As a rule, these ex perimental stations are located in the good "soil pockets" hav ing the best temperature and rainfall conditions. Therefore, of the good "soil pockets" which you should try to locate in one has been selected for an experi mental station. This is my third conclusion. There, however, is another I even more Important reason why ! Friday, Sept. 1 : you should be near one of these 1 stations: You are to be more or less a novice as to farming. ' Yes, the raising of crops and livestock is fast becoming a science. By knowing what to plant, when to plant, how to plant and the best methods of fighting insects, fungus, etc., you can cut your work in half and double your crops. By being lo cated close to an experimental I station, you both enjoy good soil and you are in a position to visit ! the station and ask questions and get very valuable help. Hence, my fourth and final conclusion is that you should buy your five acres as near as possible to an experimental station. Buy Something You Can Always Sell One other thought: The time may come when you or your family will want to sell your little farm.' Such homesites are, as a rule, like most everything else In this world. easier to buy than they are to sell. This rule, however, usually does not apply to locations close to an ex perimental station. If it directly adjoins government land the i government may be a possible purchaser at a good price when you desire to sell. Hence, by lo cating according to these con clusions you are not only sure of good soil and valuable free 1944 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE THREE help to get started right, but are pretty sure to have a fair mar ket for your place whenever you wish to sell it.
