2 MASON CITY GLOBE-GAZETTE WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1944 Roosevelt Praises U. S. War Fund Drive Washington, (Jf) President there is no letdown in the nstion' unity. Through war fund donations, he said, "we send a token of our own personal friendship to the tragic victims of brute slavery and to those who have so long borne the burden of fighting this "This gift this expression of our own free will speaks from the heart of the nation.H i TC- Roosevelt in a nation-wide radio appeal, on behalf of war fund drives said Tuesday night that larger contributions to community war funds represents "democracy at its best" and demonstrated he is for crop loans, but crop loans without AAA or the ever normal granary either means nothing at all because it is so low or it will produce such a tre-m accummulation that within a very few years this will result in the greatest corn belt depression we've ever had. "The ignorance of the Ohio and New York governors concerning corn belt agriculture is colossal," said Mr.

Wallace. "Imagine if you can the state of New York's governor last night in St. Louis saying, 'the farmers of America have the right to know that their tremendous efforts in the face of inadequate help and machinery will be rewarded by a new freedom from regimentation with stable and good prices for their 11 Ha -i I hundreds of millions stored up underground in the form of accumulated reserves of soil fertility. "He converted the ever normal granary corn into hogs and other livestock of inestimable values to the said Mr. Wallace.

"He plowed up in the cornbelt 11 million acres of pasture and hay land and Increased production above the postwar period by nearly 40 per cent. "The farmer In his own way converted to war In the same way as the automobile manufacturers converted their plants to -war. When peace comes, the farmers will have before them a tremendous job of reconversion. "The farmer will have to reconvert to peace time production just as the automobile manufacturer and will have to rebuild his soil fertility. To carry on the agricultural program of reconversion, the cornbelt will have to get between 10 and 15 million acres of land back from corn to grass and clover again," said Mr.

Wallace. "To carry on the agricultural program of reconversion successfully in the central corn belt, will require a continuation of the triple the ever normal granary, soil conservation and crop loans," said Mr. Wallace, "all co-ordinated under federal direction for postwar world markets. "In solution of this problem we have before us candidates and 2 parties." said Mr. Wallace.

"Dewey, Bricker and the repub-lical party are against effective action. They call the triple the ever normal granary and soil conservation regimentation. Bricker is on record as saying he Is against the triple A and that It is 'theoretical stuff just book larnin'." 'The republican attitude toward agriculture is dangerous because it is so deceptive," said Mr. Wallace. "Governor Bricker declared Ml 3 CHUCK HUTgg "rpHE GENIUS" and "The Voice" A a visit to Frank Sinatra on his 8 p.

KGLO-CBS DAILY PROGRAM SCHEDULES $5000 "I do not call the AAA or the ever normal granary or corn loans regimentation," said Mr. Wallace, "but that Is precisely what the New York governor means. lie thinks Iowa corn belongs to New York dairy cows rather than, to Iowa hogs." Dewey made this clear at the governors' conference at Columbus, Ohio, in early May, in answer to a question by Gov. Henry Schricker of Indiana, Mr.

Wallace pointed out. "It may be that both the New York and Ohio governors mean well toward agriculture, just like Senator Harding meant well toward the League of Nations, in 1920, but they don't understand agriculture. They are reckoning without the high command of the republican party and without the temper of the vast majority of the republican congressmen." Mr. Wallace proceded to say that the republican high command has always been against doing anything favorable for agriculture and said that the republicans were in favor of returning the farm program to the states so there could be no effective coordination of It to meet the' national or international situation. Mr.

Wallace called attention to the fact that in January, 1919, he had written a front page story for the paper of which he was editor, predicting the postwar decline of prices and a year later began his slogan, "More Clover, Less Corn, More Money." He said that the need for agricultural readjustment will be greater than after the last war and farmers should think long and seriously before they put into power those who will destroy the farm program as an effective agency for readjustment. "My own father during the first year after he became secretary was confronted with the fact that farm income had been cut In half. Iowa corn prices had fallen from 56 to 28 cents a bushel," said Mr. Wallace. "He immediately tried to do something about it, but fell afoul of the high command of the republican party.

He got the cooperation of Haugen and McNary, but not Coolidge. When 1 became secretary in 1933 I found presidential support which my father lacked. "President Roosevelt not only went along, but was eager to do so. He was a strong supporter of soil conservation and the ever normal granary, and all the other programs the republicans had op posed. He went out of his way giving me help to get programs established.

Under his leadership the farmer's financial status was stronger than it had ever been before. Preceding Mr. Wallace on the air were Judge Richard F.
