JAMES MARLOW By DON WHITEHEAD WASHINGTON 11 Democratic and Republican scouts are prowl ing the larm belt these October days checking the political temper of the farmers and then trying to project their readings Into the 1956 presidential year in terms of votes. No one yet has found a fool proof method of discovering how the farmers will vote. Nor can one say confidently that farmers will vote as a bloc any more than druggists, electricians, fishermen and golfers. But the guessing game goes on and there is no vote which is studied, analyzed, watched, wooed and feared more by politi cians than the farm vote. ' At tne present time, messages from the farm belt are reported to be encouraging to the Democrats because farmers are not happy about farm prices and their own economic position in relation to the industrial worker. The Rcpub licans are concerned because a dlS' contented farm belt toula mean trouble at the polls. one GOP scout, recently re turned from a trip though the farm country, nrougnl back this atory "I went back to my home and vlsllcd my brother on the farm where I was raised. When I was a kid, mother baked her own bread. We milked our own cows, We canned fruit and all kinds of garden truck. We had fresh eggs and fresh butter and there were .frying chickens running all around the place. We didn't have the 'modern conveniences, but we Jived well. "My brother gots his bread and butter from the store. He buys milk and eggs and frying chickens and canned lood from the super market In town. He says it's cheaper that way. And maybe It is. I don't know. "He's living better than he. ever Jived before Mr better than we did as kids. He's even got power steering on his tractor. "But he's sore because' prices aren't what he thinks they should be. He says Ezra Benson (Secre tary of agriculture) keeps telling farmers they have to expect a leveling off but that nobody Is saying the same thing to the In dustrial worker. And he doesn't like It." The farm problem Is vastly more complex than outlined In this cap sule picture, of course, but It Is a part of the whole. There are about five million farmers In the country today. With their wives and children of voting age they probably total more than 12 millions. And how they vote Is tremendously important. Three years ago presidential can didates Adlal Stevenson, Democrat, and Dwlght Elsenhower, Republi can, pleaded their cases before 100,000 farm folk gathered In the open fields near Kasson. Minn. The throng listened to their speeches, standing almost silent, giving no nint oi favoritism for either man. You felt as though here was a giant jury garnered to pass judgment on inc iwo parties. The bulk of the farm vote went to Elsenhower. But the farm Jury must judge again In a few more months. And the politicians are trying to find out whether the verdict will be the same. Perhaps the most striking lesson learned irom an analysis of the land area of the world Is the slight utilization that is made of it In the production of food. Human food Is obtained directly or Indirectly from the production of cereals. All cereals including rice occupy annually less than three per cent of the land area. The waste in volved in the utilization , of pro ducts like this area Is enoimous when looked at from the stand point of nutritive values. With increased transportation fa cilities, assuming better trade re lations between producing coun tries, the population can progress in increasing numbers with an im proved food supply, lessened se verity of toil and better sanitation. ; The people of the future genera lions may live under more com fortable conditions and enjoy per haps happier lives than has been possible for their ancestors, pro- v'ded they continue to increase their efficiency not otherwise. Everyone has doubtless exner-l lenced the difficulty of compre- nenaing tne surrounded bv other areas which are complementary. Agriculturally and Industrially these low land countries are almost as much a part of the surrounding countries as though they were politically one country. It Is an error to point to these countries as proof what larger communities of heavy populations can do lor without France, Ger many and Great Britain these smail countries could not be what they are. Different parts of Russia. China and even the United Slates are unlike industrially even though under a single political adminis tration. The "major unit." en visioned by the scientist, is equal to an area of 400 by 500 miles was thought to fulfill their statistical requirements. It was not Intended to suggest that there would be a lack of In terdependence between larger units, but under existing condi tions there are marked physical factors which make such inter dependence less marked.

In this caie the appeal to the American con sumer Is mostly one of price for eign lnbor rales are lower. The American Cottun Manufac turers Institute ssvs Japanese fabric sai--. to U.S. buyers in August totalled 63 million yard. This topped tolal sales of 48 million yards for all of 1954. Records show cotton cloth Imports from Japan this year will reach TO4 million yaids. Japanese cotton wearing apparel has had an even greater sales In crease in the United States. Last S'ORr Americans imported 8877,525 worth of these garments mode In Japan. This year, according to the Institute, the Import value will rise to $0,123,328. The National Assn. of Shirt, Pa.lama and Sportswear Manufac turers says there is a 10 per cent Increase this year In Ihe amount of cotton shirts and blouses Im ported from Japan. American shut manufacturers naturally worry about this compe tition. But the" also report produc tion gains. The .oclallon says production of business shirts in August was up 8 per cent over a year ago, and sport shirts output gained 18 per cent. Imported men's suits and wom en's gowns are mostly In Ihe lux ury clsss. Here, style is more of a selling point than price. The buying spree in this country sustains the increne in imports.

Scientists likewise have had dif ficulty In comprehending vast areas of land especially when they attempt to compare sections with one another in terms of pro duction, consequently various pro posals have been made to adopt a unit which should be large enougn to make tne vlsua mat on of the earth's surface possible when classified In terms of such unit.

Tentatively the proposal would cover an area of 50 million hectares, or, approxi mately 2uu,injo square miles, or, 126 million acres. Such a block of land surface would be approximately the size of the Philippines, France, or Texas. Such a block of land so the sci entists claim would be mifliciently large to Include within its borders certain characteristic productions, such as wheat, maize, cotton, hny. lea, coffee, or large enough to cause a certain limitation of trade and commerce which tends to set the unit apart from other units. The unit would be large enoURh to warrant, at least one Important center of distribution so necessary to organized modern life. The unit would be more or less self contained. Neither Denmark.

The fast expansion of North America was basically due to the relative high degree of prosperity of Its agriculture and a ready market in England. The highest development has taken place In the North Temper ate Zone thus far, this to due. Iii part at least, because the South Temperate Zone is not sufliciently large to constitute "areas of specialization." France with lis 207,137 square miles of land area is an illustra tion of a country which is close to one of these "major land units" in size, although its colonies or possessions occupy 20 "major units" by themselves. Tile Iberian Peninsula (Spain 195.000 squAre miles and Portugal 34,500) and the Ocrman Empire as formerly constituted 1210.000 square miles) are similar uniis. Tho area of Sweden (170,000 square miles) and Norwav (123.000 square miles) constitute 1.5 "ma jor units" but since, perhaps one third of the area Is in the Arctic Circle the two countries together nre looked upon as another "ma jor unit."

Crab out loud at everybody. Blow your top early and otten. Remember, it isn't the passive compiainer tnat gets apoplexy; n the guy who pops a gusset over trifles. 3. If you have a small persistent pain iu your innerds, don't go gal loping olf to the doctors. If they are curious about what s wroni with you, make 'em wait for the autopsy. They won't cure you then. 4. Always do your looking for sunsets on rainy afternoons. Then you ij never be surprised bv Joy. 5. If you're not in a rut now, get in one as soon as you can, and di: it as deep as you can. Always walk tne same way home. Word all change of any kind. Change and variety spice life, and you don't want yours spiced. 6. Avoid marriage at all costs. Matrimony works oddly. It gives a man more to holler about but it also makes him live longer. 7. If you go hunting, go with total strangers. They are much more likely to mistake you lor a deer. 8. Never sit down to a nteal unless you are thoroughly worn out or have worked yourself into a towering rage. Avoid all nonfatten mg foods. If you must eat green vegetables, fry them. Fry them twice. 8. Get 4 hours of sleep each night but no more. Don't play tennis except, under a hot sun. 10. Never read poetry, see a new play or associate with children.
