Weekend Roundup
STRANGE birds and animals diet Barton has installed on
his Poe Valley holdings have come through the winter
all right so far, with the exception of a couple of frozen
kangaroo ears.
Anticipating that ostriches, kangaroos and a llama in
the snow would make an unusual picture, we visited the
Poe Valley menagerie Friday. With the fog so thick you
seemed to be inside a tent, the sight of these strange
creatures cavorting in the snow gave us a sense of un
reality but we got some pictures, and the film doesn't
lie. (See Page 12). It must be true.
Mr. Barton keeps the ostriches, the llama and the
kangaroos in fenced-in yards on either side of the big house
he is just completing. There are sheds back of the house,
warmed from the house furnace and used for shelters by
the birds and animals. The buffalo, Japanese white deer
and some of the other animals are kept in pens farther
down the road.
Following instructions from Mr. Ba'rton, who was busy
at Merrill, we looked up George Hubbard, who functions
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10 A
government report has been
prepared showing a revolution
ary labor draft will be necessary.
u Mr. Roosevelt s plan to over
whelm the axis with production
is to succeed.
Women, who are idle, will
have to be drawn into factory
service (as in England). All
WPA and CCC workers will
have to go into the army or fac
tory, or into substitute work to
relieve someone else for the twin
front lines. Elderly persons who
have retired will have to step
back to the wheels. Subsistence
farmers will have to drop their
feebly paying ploughs and get
into productive employment. And
even then, all labor union regu
lations and laws restricting out
put (8-hour day, 40-hour week,
holidays, etc.), must be abandon
ed to furnish the necessary hu
man power.
A shortage of around 6,000,000
to 7,000,000 new workers is fore
seen, a final net shortage which
can be made up in no other way,
except by tapping fresh sources.
It might be done with a nation
wide enlistment campaign. It
certainly could be done by a
labor draft act. Either "-ay it
will be done.
.
WHAT CAN STOP IT?
Only two failures could ruin
the Roosevelt plan to win victory
with production a deficiency of
raw materials or a shortage of
labor. lEveryone agrees the gov-

arrangement frankly was dis
couraging to all.
The CIO wanted to use the
war occasion to put over "the
Murray plan" (different from the
Reuther plan which was public
ized as the cause of dissension.)
The Murray plan is an old
one worked up by Phil Murray,
president of the CIO, and un
ostentatiously reaffirmed as the
Your Federal
Income Tax
as a sort of custodian of the Barton fauna. George showed j eminent can get the stupendous CIO , at t'ncir last convcntion

animals out tor pictures.
The llama posed for several shots, and while this was
going on a small kangaroo hopped up. The llama deftly
touched noses with the small ; animal as the flashlight
popped. A stray deer wandered up at the moment and
thrust his nose under the photographer's arm. We blinked
our eyes.
Meanwhile, the five big ostriches were milling about in
an excited mass in the corner of the adjoining pen. George
thrust up his gloved hand and the birds opened their
huge mouths and pecked it with cheerful violence. The
photographer took off his glasses before going into the
pen,
George put some grain in a box and the ostriches gath
ered around, eating happily. George tried to put his arm
around one but the bird threw its .weight around wildly
and we could get no picture of that affectionate pose.
Most spectacular view of the birds, which couldn't be
pictured because of the fog, came when they took off across
the snow in startled flight upon a sudden movement by
George and the photographer.
Later, George brought an ostrich egg from the house.
It was white, speckled, and about eight inches in its great
est diameter. George said there are both male and female
ostriches in the pen, but that so far as he knows, there are
no plans to attempt to hatch any eggs.
Two of the five or six kangaroos got their ears nipped
in the recent cold spell. They were taken into the warm
basement of the house and thawed out with no serious
results. The Jcangaroos were bouncing about with great
abandon Friday.
Mr. Barton began collecting unusual birds and animals
two or three years ago as a hobby. His first idea was to
have everything either black or white on the ranch, and
ne cans it the "Black and White Ranch." He now has
many Dims and animals of varying shades, but black and
white predominate. Domestic stock on the ranch include
DiacK Angus catue, a black Fercheron stallion, and black
lurKeys.
George said that in good weather, many people drive
'"8 ""s west siae roe vauey road to look at the
strange animals and birds. It is a unique sight. From
what we saw of the ostriches, they will match any human
visitor in irans and shameless curiosity.
If you fix a siren, you have to blow it to find out if it
is working all right That fact confronted a local electrical
shop Friday, after a working-over had been given the big
siren which belongs to the city of Dorris and which, we

LABOR SITUATION
The remaining place where
we could fall down is in labor.
Our potential labor supply now
is around 55,000,000 men. Of
these 2,000,000 are already in the
army and 3,000,000 to 5,000,000
more are going in. Four millions
today are unemployed. (You can
read that sentence again).
Working today, we have
around 49,000,000 men. Only
5,000,000 are already in defense
industries. Defense authorities
say the Roosevelt program will
require 15,000,000 more work'
ers for its fulfillment. Only 10,-
000,000 of these can be transfer
red from non-defense industries
(the great bulk of these workers
are in indispensible services, on
farms, running trains, etc.) Thij
leaves the program about 5,000,-
000 short, before the coming
draft. The draft will take around
4,000,000 immediately for the
army. With enlistments for
other branches, the drain from
industry may be higher.
oo we wina up witn a pros
pective shortage of at least 9,-
000,000 new workers. Possibly
3,000,000 of the unemployed are
sufficiently equipped mentally
and physically to be worked in
somewhere (this is putting it
most optimistically). The net
deficiency then comes to 6,000,
000 or more than 25 per cent of
the 20,000,000 to be required for
the defense Industry program.
Largest class pools from which
these can be drawn are the 30,
000,000 household workers; the
9,000,000 in schools, of working
age; the 5,600,000 overage or de
ficient; 1,200,000 classified by
the government only as "others."
Obviously the best place to
get them is among women now
idle, boys from school and CCC.
retired workers and subsistence
farmers by draft or voluntary en
listment.

Inability of the motor Industry

along with management, through
"Industry councils" on which

Thus labor leaders propose to

Anna Gertrude Gray, for the

groups of people, but
it seems lo do little good. There
is, however, a solution to the
problem somewhere and it
should be dug out.
We will put ciuwn a few !
reasons for the lack of school j
support this year.
First, there is the team. They
are definitely not at fault. They
play well and hard, even with
out much encouragement from
the students. (When and if they
go to the state tourney they will
receive plenty of praise and
glory from those who stand
around now with straight faces
at games and assemblies).
Second, it may be the yell
leaders. They try hard, but
con i receive much encourage
mem cimcr. i nry could im
prove.
Third, the students don't feel
like yelling and giving their
support. Some do try hard to
spur the team on to success
with their enthusiasm over the
game and score, but there arc
those who like to have their
naps during athletic contests
and assemblies. There seems to
be quite a number of those peo
ple. Maybe the assemblies
should be better and a little bit
newer in form so that students
would bo encouraged not to
doze.
Or, coffee could bo passed
out when attending the and.
No matter who's at fault or
what things ore not Just right,
It is no excuse. Thero must bo
more pep, there could bo more
pep, and If the student body
would wake to the fact that the
team must huvo the support of
the entire school to continue
successfully there would un
doubtedly arise tho missing
quantity.
If any suggestions could be
made by townspeople or stu
dents which might assist In
bringing about such a realism
they would be appreciated. If
you have such you might put
it In an envelope and send It
to the high school with this re
porter's name on tho outsldo.
They will be turned over to the
persons who can handlo the Job.
Any suggestion will be welcome.
Thu high school is In nct-d.
There Is an epidemic of tlio
