Farmer Confidence
If Anderson's Aim
Clinton Anderson, the new
secretary of agriculture, has said
that one of his most important
objectives as the nation's new
food chief will be to create farm
er confidence that abundant pro
duction will not bring on anoth
er postwar depression.
This, he said, will involve a
coordination of food production
and pricing policies to encour
age maximum output while still
holding the line against infla
tion. The new secretary pointed
out that the government and the
people have "strong hopes" for
a high level of employment
which would support abundant
production and consumption of
agricultural commodities in the
postwar period.
Secretary Anderson has de
scribed these four problems as
his immediate concern and as
fundamental to a sound food pro
gram: (1) Abundant production
to meet wartime requirements;
(2) The guarantees farmers need
from government to get greater
production; (3) Necessary action
to make good on the promises
of government to farmers: (4)
Improvements in distribution so
that supplies may be shared more
fairly among all.

Veterans Get Break
In Equipping Farms
The recent actions are aimed
at helping veterans of this war
establish or reestablish them
selves on farms. GI Joe can get
a priority certificate from his
county AAA committee for pur
chase of new farm machinery
that will give preference to his
application over nearly all other
buyers. The committee will give
him preference for lumber, cop
per wire, engines, electric mo
tors and farm building permits.
And he can buy up to $2500 of
surplus war property to equip
his farm, including trucks, trac
tors, and any other surplus items
useful on the farm. The county
committee will certify his appli
cation to the Small War Plants
Corporation, which will locate
the surplus property and sell it
to the veteran.

Cherry Slugs Busy
In Many Trees
Many cherry trees are showing
the effects of cherry slugs. These
slugs feed on the upper surface
of the leaves. The leaves then
turn brown and appear partly
skeletonized. The slugs vary in
size according to age so may be
found from very small up to one
half inch in length. As the slugs
are heavy feeders and consume
much of the upper leaf surface
they are easily controlled by
spraying with lead arsenate. Any
form of dust will also give con-

Washington, July 28 (U.R)
Sen. Guy Cordon, R., Ore., said
today he hoped the Navy would
designate a point on either the
Willamette or Columbia rivers
as a fresh-water berth for U. S.
fighting ships after the war.
"And I don't mean a bone
yard a place where ships are
left to disintegrate," Cordon
said. "I mean a live berth where
ships will be kept up to an oper
able condition."
The Oregon senator said that
after the war the Navy would
need fresh-water berths with re
pair and reconditioning facilities
for temporarily inactive ships.
