As a. candidate for office, I wishto point out several reasons why

| the voters should vote for Nor-man Thomas' and DarlingtonHoopes for president and vicepresident, and the straight Social-ist ticket in the election thisyear. In recent months we haveheard much about Post War prob-

i lems. These problems are real1 and serious. But they are notj merely Post War problems. The| most serious of them and the' most far reaching, the problem ofi unemployment, has been with usfor fifteen years and is doomedto stay with us indefinitely unless

J proper action is taken to elim-inate it. The most serious prob-lem which developed because ofthe invention' of labor savingmachinery and modern methodsof production can be made to bea blessing instead of a curse ifproper steps are taken to solve it.

What is the solution? We do

have the wealth! Our natural re-sources are practically inexhaus-tible. Our modern methods ofproduction in this machine ageeasily creates twice as much andmuch more food, clothing, shelter,as all the people can use.

Because of this abundancewhich with a little study can easilybe seen to exist we Socialistsfeel that a much higher standardof living could be provided forevery citizen than that which nowprevails. Because of the high costof living nothing less than $3,000per year should be guaranteed bythe government to every adultworker. Also a cost of living un-employment insurance for everyweek in the year when not em-ployed. A pension equal to theTownsend plan for all aged sixty.

From certain quarters we hearexpressions of concern, even fearthat there will not be enough jobs.Why should we worry about ashortage of jobs when we do havethe wealth and know how to createmore. In an enlightened countrylike America we should know howto distribute .wealth and do itequitably.

We urge you to vote the Social-ist ticket because the two majorpolitical parties have for manyyears had control of the impor-tant law making body of thecountry and always insisted onignoring the important needs ofthe people.

Navy day, October 27, 1944,finds the youngest nation inthe world, the United States,with much of its greatstrength reflected in the larg-est navy afloat.

Today's mighty fleet is a farcry from the original sixfrigates authorized in 1794 toprotect American shippingfrom the ravages of Algerianpirates, and it has grown tre-mendously even in the lastfive years to more than dou-ble its prewar combatstrength.

With the navy's fundamental aimbeing " . . . to support the nationalpolicies, commerce, and to guardthe continental and overseas pos-sessions," the U. S. fleet can befound in every major theater ofWorld War II, in the forefront of thenation's struggle against Axis ag-gression.

Whole Nation Helped.Utilizing the unbounded natural

wealth of this country, and employ-ing the courage and ingenuity of theAmerican people, the navy has de-veloped the most modern instru-ments to cope with the scientific pro-gression of the times. Taking theplace of the old man o' wars are themighty 35,000-ton battleships; thesleek, powerful cruisers, and thespeedy, dangerous destroyers; andsupplementing these surface craftare approximately 100 aircraft car-riers, from which bomber andfighter planes can be brought upclose to take off and hammer enemy 'defenses. ^

With over 1,150 combat vessels inservice, a vast array of tankers, oil-ers, and cargo and ammunitionships are needed to attend them,and with the navy required to bringInvasion troops and their equipmentashore against enemy fire, thou-sands of sturdy landing craft havebeen put into service.

Since the war began, the UnitedStates navy has tripled the numberof its warships; adde|J 65,000 vesselsof all types; brought "its air strengthup to 57,600 planes; increased its ar-senal of antiaircraft guns to morethan 125,000 of 20-millimeter and 40-millimeter caliber, and developed aforce of 3,717,000 men, with a goalof over 4,000,000.

Naval Chiefs In •Charge.Heading this overwhelming aggre-

gation of naval power is Adm. Er-nest J. King, comrnander-in-chief ofthe navy and chief of naval opera-tions, with Adm. Harold Stark incharge of the European theater,Adm. Royal Ingersoll of the At-lantic, and Adm. Chester Nirnitz ofthe Pacific.

If the navy is pare of our strongright arm today, it was not alwaysthat way, for, oddly enough, the fleethas had its fight for obtaining prop-er recognition as not only a suretyof our water-borne commerce, butalso as a barrier to any coastal as-sault against us.

Supplies Needed toMaintain Acreage

Growing of legumes and covercrops—with particular emphasis onseed production—is receiving moreattention than usual from'Uncle Samthis year.

The nation's farmers for manyyears have relied upon legumes andcover crops to protect their soil fromerosion, preserve valuable moisture,and gather life-giving nitrogen fromthe air. In most cases, these cropsare plowed under as green manureto make room for more profitablerow crops, such as cotton, corn, ortobacco.

Heavy wartime demands for morefood and fiber crops from each acreunder the plow have increased theneed for seeding legumes and covercrops, the War Food administrationsays. Records show that growingthese crops in winter will bringabout a substantial increase in peracre yields of subsequent crops. Theurgent need for more feed crops tosupport added numbers of livestockalso has a place in the picture, WFAsays. These crops provide excel-lent pasture for several weeks be-fore turning under, thus supple-menting dwindling supplies of con-centrated protein feeds.

Principal emphasis is being placedon harvesting of seed from 1944 cropsof legumes and grasses because sup-plies now are at dangerously lowlevels. Adequate supplies of theseseeds are essential for providing

Good Clover Stand

winter feeds, protecting land duringthe winter months, and maintainingsoil productivity ,,at high levels.

Increases in production of legumeand grass seeds must be made in1944 if there are to be sufficient newseedings this fall for hay and pas-ture production and for sod acreagein regular crop rotations. Nationsliberated from Nazi domination willneed seed quickly to help reestablishthemselves by restoring their devas-tated farmlands. Shipping seedabroad is an economical way ofexporting food and lessens the drainon our own food supplies.

Harvesting of legume and covercrop seed will be encouraged underprovisions of the 1944 conservationprogram of the Agricultural Adjust-ment agency. Substantial paymentswill be allowed for each acre har-vested, up to a maximum of 25 acresper farm. Prices of seed will besupported at levels designed to givethe farmer a fair return. Crops eli-gible for AAA payments and sup-port prices include most principallegumes and grasses.

In addition to the profit realized,farmers are being urged by theWFA to produce adequate suppliesof seed for two principal reasons.First, WFA says, if farmers are tomaintain their record productionlevels, every effort must be made tokeep the nation's farmlands in topproductive condition. Any effort todraw upon soil fertility without re-placing it is a dangerous gamblewhich may result in declining pro-duction in later years. In the sec-ond place, many of the crops nowbeing produced in record quantitiesto meet urgent needs are soil de-pleting. Continued production ofthese crops makes it imperativethat productivity be preserved byevery means possible.

Here is how the situation sums up:1. Red clover—Reserves at 40 per

cent of 1940 level.2. Alsike clover—Carryover re-

duced one-half by two short crops.3. Sweet clover—1943 crop small-

est since 1922. Carryover July 1 ex-pected to be 40 per cent of 1939-1943average.
