12 ClarfOtt'LCDgCr A-Thursday, Nov. 2, 1967 Legion Chief Thinks We Are Now Winning Fungus Eaters 'Best' Farmers Certain ants may be the world's best farmers. They eat only one thing, a funps that they grow themselves. If the ants abandon their garden of fungus it dies. Finding the chemical basis for the close association between the Attine ants inhabiting an area extending from Argentina to the southern United States, and the fungus they culture is the aim of research reported by Prof.

Michael M. Martin of the University of Michigan. He believes this association is the key to the ants' successful exploitation of their said enough food could be raised in its basin to feed 60 per cent of the teeming masses of people in Asia. WANT FERTILE LAND He said the Chinese want this fertile land in South Vietnam to help feed their people. Galbraith said that the American Legion is trying to put a positive thought in the minds of Americans with the theme of "Freedom in Not Free." There are some elements in the country, he said, which tend to tear down the united feeling of Americans, and that it is the Legion's hope to inspire these people to meet their responsibilities of citizenship and to awaken others who are apathetic.

Galbraith, a Navy veteran of World War II, has been active in civic organizations as well as in the Legion. He has served as chairman of the Nebraska Centennial Commission and 1965 received the School Bell Award from the Nebraska State Education Association for outstanding contributions as a layman to the cause of education. "We are winning that stinking war there's no question about it," American Legion National Commander William E. Galbraith, who returned Oct. 14 from a three week trip to Vietnam, said at a press conference in Jackson Wednesday afternoon.

The national commander who was making an official visit to Mississippi, went to Laurel where he addressed the American Legion post there Wednesday night. He is due to visit the Veterans Hospital in Gulfport at noon Thursday, to tour the NASA facility at Gainesville Thursday afternoon and to speak Thursday night at Bay St. Louis. Galbraith said American servicemen in Vietnam know their job and that they're going it. "These young men that we have over there are the most professional, best equipped, best led, best conducted of any service group we've ever had in mese to build up their forces in South Vietnam.

Commander Galbraith said the war is an awkward conflict in which the South Vietnamese have been terrorized and subjected to fear. He said that under the conditions, the South Vietnamese have done a "fabulous, tremendous job." He said they had been fighting for 10 or 15 years "with no rotation." "There is no let up in the war for them," he said. Asked if the Legion might sponsor demonstrations in support of the American participa tion in the war, Galbraith said what might happen "when a mob gets together" is unpredictable. Instead, he said, the American Legion may sponsor or help sponsor a petition support of the servicemen and the war effort. He said he thought that on his Vietnam visit he understood for the first time "what this war's all about." The Legion commander said that, being a former, he was impressed by the Mekong delta land.

He not only called it the most fertile he'd ever seen but what's wrong with people here in America." The GIs, he said, in many instances think the people at home are letting them down. The commander said he thought opposition in the U.S. to the war was extending it. He thinks the majority of the people in this country support the war, but that some of the discontent has been with the conduct of the war rather than with the waging of the war. Many people, he said, think the country is not doing enough to win it.

The bombings of North Vietnam were called by Galbraith "the best defense we have." He said that close to 500,000 Vietnamese in the north must be employed manning anti aircraft weapons and in rebuilding railroads and highways and repairing other damage from the raids. It has also slowed the flow of North Vietnam regulars into South Vietnam. Deaths of South Vietnamese and American troops have always increased following the bombing pauses, Galbraith said. He said these pauses also allow the Viet Cong and North Vietna r- rf I 1 El IF YOU HAVEN'T CHECKED COWBOY'S PRICES ON COLOR TELEVISION YOU HAVEN'T SHOPPED. of Starkville, state commander.
