Farmers Will Meet
f War Needs, Wickard
Assures Roosevelt
Secretary Predicts Crops
! This Year Will Exceed
Record 1941 Yield
By the Associated Press.
America's farm productive ma
chinery has been shifted from low
to high gear. Secretary of Agri
culture Wickard said today, to as
sure a maximum supply of food and
fiber for those fighting the "world
battle for democracy and civiliza
tion.”
This accomplishment, he said, was
no small one. considering that farm
ers as well as agricultural officials
had for years "been saturated with
~ thoughts of crop surplus problems.”
In his annual report to President
Roosevelt the cabinet officer said
‘ agriculture's speedup program
brought about a record production
of farm products in 1941 and pre
dicted an even greater output- this
year to meet an expanding demand
at, home and from this country's j
Allies abroad.
Labor Is Scarce.
Secretary Wickard said farmers
faced this year's increased produc
tion goals with a growing shortage
of farm labor, machinery and other
means of production.
"Despite the handicaps," the Sec
retary said, "we are ready for the
ordeal. Foresight and statesman
ship have given us an ever-normal
granary, stored with feeds that can
be converted into foods. Foresight
and statesmanship have provided
* us a Nation-wide farm adjustment
system, which functions as well in
high as in low gear and which is
capable of mobilizing the resources
of almost every farm.”
It is the duty, he said, of the
Agriculture Department and of
farmers to make fullest use of these
facilities, with ‘'national safety j
rather than agricultural advantage
es the goal.”
Mr. Wickard asked farmers to
view war problems from the na
tional rather than from their group
Interest. Sharply increased pro
duction of food, for example, in
volves some risks for agriculture, he
said.
World War I Recalled.
"Many farmers remember the sur
pluses that followed World War I,
and fear a similar aftermath again,”
he continued. “In vital respect*,
however, the situation is different
now. In the first place, the danger
to our Nation is greater. If Ger
many wins it will either throttle |
our export trade altogether or will i
take our goods merely as prepara
tion for an attack upon us.
"In the second place, our farm
program, forged out of the prob-;
lems left by the last World War, is j
strong enough to meet the strains
of the new post-war period, and to
keep the production program well
in hand. More important still, vic
tory for democracy will postpone the
need for readjustments downward
in our own farm production. It will
give us a transition market and will
facilitate gradual changes towaad a
peacetime basis.”
Mr. Wickard also cautioned farm
prs against a "high-price” policy,
declaring that advances beyond a
certain point might hamper the war
program. He re-asserted bis belief
in tile adequacy of parity price goals
set. up in the 1938 Farm Act. These
goals have been reached for most
commodities, he said.
“Efforts to push farm prices above
parity may endanger the parity
principle itself,” he said. "The na
tional farm program, with its com
modity loans and its parity and con
servation payments, has had full
support up to now of the general
public and of consumers. This is
because it has been fair. Attempts
to raise farm prices out of line with
other prices, and to bolster them
with artificial scarcity, might prove
disastrous.”
Trade Treaties Defended.
The Secretary asked also that
farmers take a national view of this
country’s efforts to improve trade
relations with Latin and South
America through trade agreements.
While conceding that such agree-:
ments often "rub sore spots on agri- I
culture's skin and stir old preju- i
dices,” Mr. Wickard denied that they
were harmful to American farmers.
He argued that they opened up new
markets for all types of American
products.
“Farmers should remember,” he
declared, “that the agreements have
more than an economic justification.
They are the pillars in our hemi
sphere defense — vital safeguards
against Nazi penetration, both com
mercial and military."
Looking to the day of victory,
the Secretary said the United States 1
must be prepared to send large
quantities of food and agricultural
supplies to Europe, or be prepared to
wrestle with new forces of destruc
tion.
It will pay the United States to j
help, if we have the assurance that ■
the result will be a long peace rather
than new civil or international war,”
he said. ‘ Under our lend-lease pro
gram now we are providing foods
and munitions to repel aggression.
The same logic will suggest the use
of foods to guard against a repeti
tion of the danger of revolutionary
upheavals in Europe.
Warns Against Price Inflation.
Payment for such help, he said,
may not be immediately in goods or
gold, but simply collaboration in
world healing
"As such,” he said, "it might be
highly acceptable.”
Mr. Wickard's report warned
against price inflation, and of its
possible effects on agriculture. He
expressed the opinion that it could
be checked and possibly stopped by
a combination of price controls and
Government fiscal policy.
"Actually, most farmers oppose
Inflated prices: for themselves they
want only fair* prices—now and
later.” he said. “As long as the
parity principle works they have
that benefit. Parity prices of
course must rise with other prices;
but if other prices rise too fast, as
In the end they do in inflationary
situations, maintenance of parity is
difficult or impossible. Farmers con
sequently have reason to approve
action that will curb speculation
and prevent run-away prices, even
if it means putting a ceiling on
prices.”
Society to Hear Camalier
The Sdciety of Natives will meet
tomorrow at 8 pm. at the Washing
ton Club to consider a proposed
amendment to the by-laws dealing
with meeting dates. Renah F.
Camalier, municipal attorney for the

REPORT TO THE NATION
Fourth Installment of MacLeish
~ Statement on War Effort
V. The Battle of
Economies
While our sea, land and air
fighters are meeting the Axis
throughout the world, action has
been joined on still another front.
This silent ‘and stubborn battle
may well be the most decisive
of all. It is the battle of eco
nomics. It Is a war of commerce
and shipping, of barter and buy
ing, of loans and agreements, of
blacklist and blockade. It is
starvation for our enemies and
food for our friends.
The term "economic warfare,"
with all its exciting, if vague,
connotations, has become famil
iar to the average citizen in re
cent months. Just what does it
• mean? It means fighting the
Messerschmitt before it is a Mes
serschmitt, fighting the tank be
fore it is a tank, smashing the
submarine before it can go to
sea. It means preventing the
manufacture of Axis weapons of
war by preventing the Axis from
getting raw materials. It means
getting raw materials for our own
production.
In the days of the Napoleonic
wars, indeed of our own Civil
War, the technical equipment of
armies was relatively modest, and
a belligerent nation could furnish
its own metal and supply. To
prosecute war successfully today
—to build planes, ships, arma
ments—raw materials must be
brought from every corner of
the earth.
Metal Needed for War Tools.
The production of the tools of
war is an endless adventure Into
chemistry and metallurgy. Ar
mor plate for battleships and
tanks requires not rally steel but
manganese, nickel, chromite,
tungsten and Vanadium—coming
from Latin America, Canada,
Turkey, Africa and China. Ar
mor-piercing bullets and high
speed tools depend upon tungsten
that comes from China. Bolivia
and the Argentine. Platinum is
needed in the manufacture of
smokeless powder. Platinum
comes from Colombia. Canada,
South Africa and the Soviet
Union. South America's bauxite
becomes aluminum for airplanes.
For more than 18 months a
host of Government agencies,
each working in Its own special
ized field, has been laying the
battle lines to see that we get
these necessities, and that the
Axis doesn’t.
One of our most important
moves in this battle of economies
has been to counter the enemy,’s
attacks upon us. He has worked
for many ywafs to werfCti our
military potential. Through pat
ent controls- and * cartal .agree
ments be succeeded In litoituig
American production and export
of many vital materials. He kept
the prices of these materials up
and the output down. He was
waging war, and he did his work
well, decoying important Ameri
can companies into agreements,
the purpose of which they did not
sense. Our businessmen were
peaceful traders. The enemy's
businessmen were and are, all
over the world, agents of aggres
sion.
The list of materials affected
is long—beryllium, optical instru
ments, magnesium, tungsten car
bide, pharmaceuticals, hormones,
dyes and many more. When you
match each product with its mili
tary use, the significance of the
attack becomes clear, Beryllium
is a vital element for alloys that
make shell springs; magnesium
makes airplanes and incendiary
bombs; tungsten carbide Is es
sential for precision machine
tools.
Enemy Long Unchecked.
Concealed behind dummy cor
porations, the enemy went un
checked for years, using our own
legal machinery to hamstring us.
In the summer of 1938 our Gov
ernment began to fight back.
Investigation, exposure, antitrust
indictments and decrees have
broken up many of the agree
ments that bound us. Each prod
uct listed above is now free from
restrictions.
Our Government also has
worked to break cartel arrange
ments under which certain of our
products were shut off from
South America and other mar
kets of the world.
Not all our action on the
economic front has been defen
sive. Since April of 1940 we also
have carried the economic battle
to the enemy.
More than $7,000,000,000 of as
sets of 33 foreign countries have
been frozen in the United States.'
Such action automatically severs
normal economic relations be
tween the United States and
these countries.
Foreign funds control helps our
friends and harms our enemies.
When Germany invaded Den
mark and Norway, the President
by executive order, froze Danish
and Norwegian assets in this
country. Thus, the assets of these
countries are prevented from fall
ing into Axis hands. As other
nations were invaded or domi
nated, the control was extended
successively to the Netherlands,
Belgium, France, and the Balkan
states.
Axis’ Assets Frozen.
In June, 1941, the assets of Ger
many, Italy , and their satellites
were frozen and, shortly after
ward, the assets of Japan. The
control now embraces all of con
tinental Europe except Turkey.
After the fall of Manila the assets
of the Philippines were frozen to
thwart the Japanese. Blocked
assets include bank deposits, ear
marked gold, securities, mer
chandlse, patents, business en
terprises, and other forms of
property.
These things, in themselves,
are the tools of economic warfare.
The freezing of assets paralysed
German and Italian efforts to
acquire vital and strategic ma
terials In the Western Hemi
sphere. The Axis was using
American dollars and American
banking facilities to underwrite
sabotage, spying and a propa
ganda campaign In both North
and South America. The block
ing of Axis assets abruptly choked
this poisonous stream.
Against Japan, the blow was
even more telling. Japan’s econ
omy is heavily dependent on
Imports. So is her war machine.
Japan's purchases of mercury
vital In certain explosives—in
creased 240 times In 1940 over
the amounts acquired In 1939.
Her purchases of zinc increased
60 times. In a g'j-year pe
riod she bought 4,350.000 tons of
scrap iron and steel here. This
accumulation of stocks for the
war that Is now a reality ended
on July 26, when the United
States, Great Britain and the
Dutch simultaneously applied
freezing control.
License Control Applied.
Approximately 2,500 business
enterprises with varying degrees
of foreign domination now are
operating under licenses granted
by the Foreign Funds Control.
Each firm is required to file an
affidavit giving the organiza
tion of the corporation, officers
and directors, nature of opera
tions, and its principal cus
tomers. Periodic reports must
also be filed. As a result of this, 1
plus the first comprehensive cen
sus ever made of foreign-held
property in the United States, the
Treasury Department now has In
its files strategic information on
the structure, activities and back
ground of Axis-owned and Axis
dominated concerns.
All security accounts of for
eigners have been frozen. The
unlicensed importation of securi
ties from any foreign country
has been prohibited. This struck
against the Axis, which has at
tempted to dump into the Ameri
can market a wealth of securi
ties looted from fallen coun
tries.
Another powerful weapon in
fighting Axis influence has been
the blacklist or, to give it its
legal name, the proclaimed list
of certain blocked nationals.
First used against Axis agents in
this hemisphere, the blacklist has
now been extended to cover the
neutral nations of Europe.
The blacklist is, in effect, a roll
call, of Jp<ttiTjJuals anfl Qrms wttft,
which Americans must not trade.
There are now approximately
5,600 names on the list. They
represent billions in Axis invest
ment. ' In one small Central
American country alone German
firms did an annual business of
between $75,000,000 and $100,
000,000.
The names on the blacklist—a
Who's Who of Axis undercover
agents and their dummies—rep
resent months of investigation
and intelligence work by the
Office of the Co-ordinator of In
ter-American Affairs, the De
partment of Justice, Treasury,
the Department of Commerce,
and State Department's diplo
matic missions in the various
countries.
Dislocations Prevented.
Particular effort has been
made to prevent dislocation of
the economy of the democracies
of the Americas, as a result of
the eradication of Axis influ
ences. Guatemala is an exam
ple. The Germans there owned
50 per cent of the coffee Indus
try. To have barred this Ger
man-grown coffee from the
United States would have cre
ated a desperate financial crisis
in Guatemala. Treasury and
State Department representa
tives arranged for the Guate
malan government to take over
the coffee crop and clear It to
this country through a central
bank In Guatemala City.
The blacklist has effectively
ended, except for small quantity
smuggling, all direct trade with
Axis firms. The problem now is
to deal with firms serving as
cloaks for enemy trading. The
profits from dealing in contra
band are enormous. Some com
panies have been offered as much
as 75 per cent of the value of an
export cargo merely for the use
of their names as the shippers.
It is now accurate to say that
Hitler and his partners will find
no further economic aid or com
fort in the republics of the Amer
icas.
Directing our campaign in this
battle of trade, the Board of
Economic Warfare aids the mili
tary in the establishment of
blockades. It also is empowered
to control exports under a li
censing system and to requisition
and seize commodities whose
export Is forbidden under emer
gency laws.
Recently 590,000 pounds of tin
plate were seized In a New York
warehouse. Purchased a year
ago and kept in storage, the tin
plate was consigned to an In
dustrial concern in a nation now
dominated by the Axis. Thou
sands of tons of aluminum and
iron and steel products original
billed for similar destination?
have been found in warehouses
and in railroad yards. The Gov
ernment Is taking over and using
these goods.
Axis Air Lines Curbed.
Control of exports and the
blacklist are inseparable. The
shipment of many non-vital com
modities to South America and
the British Empire is freely per
mitted under so-called general
license*, but such license* are not
granted until the blacklist has
been consulted. Issuing of li
censes has been greatly speeded
so that legitimate Industry does
not suffer. Some 1,000 applica
tions are being handled a day.
In moat instances a decision is
made within two days.
The elimination of Axis-con
trolled air lines in South Amer
ica is another excellent example
of successful economic warfare.
The shipment of high-octane
gasoline to suspect companies was
cut off. Most of the republics
wanted to buy out foreign own
ers. but lacked the means. An
$8,000,000 lending fund was set
up to facilitate these purchases.
In September of 1989 there were
4.109 miles of Axis-dominated
lines In Bolivia; now there are
none. There were 5,494 miles In
Colombia, 594 miles in Ecuador,
1.310 miles in Peru. Now there
are none. The Job is virtually
complete in other countries.
Not content to block the ex
port of products from the United
States to the Axis, we have
worked to prevent the Axis from
getting strategic materials from
any country. We have con
tracted for the purchase of ma
terials which might otherwise be
sold to enemy agents.
Before the end of 1940 agree
ments had been signed which
assured us substantially the en
tire copper production of Chile,
Mexico and Peru. In November,
1940, we agreed to buy almost all
Bolivian tin not earmarked for
Great Britain. A few months
later, in the face of higher Jap
anese bids, an agreement was
made to purchase Bolivia's entire
tungsten output. Under the 1941
agreements with Brasil, Mexico
and Peru, we are taking the en
tire exportable surplus of almost
all their strategic materials. Wa
have made similar arrangements
for the control of Colombian
platinum and Cuban sugar.
Reserve Supplies Guarded.
Choking off the enemy's sources
of materials fitted naturally Into
our broader efforts to obtain our
own stocks. The Government's
stock-piling program—to build up
reserves of imported war ma
terials which might be cut off In
time of war—began in the sum
mer of 1939, but feebly. It was
stepped up after the fall of
France. These reserves wlU con
tinue to be bolstered, but their
exact size will be kept secret. As
users of tires and golf balls are
now aware, suppUes of some ma
terials are not sufficient to meet
both our fighting needs and our
civilian desires.
Special studies have uncovered
■processes for treatlng—low-frade
domestic ores, providing new
sources o(,strategic metals. Agri
culture research men are work
ing to develop substitutes for ma
terials which we have imported
from the Far East. New uses
have been found for some of our
own most common products.
In the case of rubber, we are
supplementing our stock pUe by
building synthetic rubber plants,
by Increasing the reclaiming of
rubber, by stimulating rubber pro
duction in South America, and
by preparing the way for in
creased production of guayule
rubber, which comes from s shrub
we can grow in our own South
west. #
Our dependence on the democ
racies of the Americas for stra
tegic materials carries with it an
obligation to send in return the
manufactured goods they can get
nowhere else. It is a part of our
economic policy to continue suffi
cient exports to our neighbors to
satisfy their minimum essential
requirements, treating their civil
ian needs as we would our own.
Special consideration has been
given to supply them with ma
chinery needed for their part in
the productive effort. We have
granted export licenses for tin
plate to maintain the canning
Industry of South America. We
have given high priority ratings
for railroad equipment to Brazil.
Financing Explained.
The allocation of supplies Is
worked out, so far as possible, in
co-operation with the other
American governments.
To aid in the financing of these
purchases and to develop new,
untouched resources the Export
Import Bank has granted loans
and credits to 18 American re
publics. For example, credit was
extended to Brasil for the erec
tion of a steel plant. Coeta Rica,
Ecuador, Nicaragua, El Salvador,
and Panama have received loans
for highway improvements; Haiti
for rubber production. Outstand
ing loans and undisbursed com
mit menu now total approximate
ly $3*0,000,000.
Beyond today’s objective, to
defeat the Axis in the war, lies
the peace of tomorrow. The eco
nomic highways we have pio
neered in war will still be there.
If we have pioneered well, the
blows struck in economic warfare
will be blows struck for our fu
ture freedom and prosperity, and
the freedom and prosperity of all
friendly nations, large and small,
' everywhere.

Music Praised as Aid j
To Solidarity Among
American Nations
Educational Project Due
To Run Two Years May
Continue Indefinitely
By JOSEPH A. RAWLINGS,
Wld* world r
CHICAGO, Jan. 38.—Mualc is sing
ing a song of Pan-American unity.
Through Its medium. Innumerable
staunch friendships between the
peoples erf North and South America
are being built in steadily growing
numbers. . <
These observations were made to
day by C. V. Buttelman, executive
secretary of the Music Educators
National Conference, in an inter
view. He surveyed the effects of
fciore than a year at work on a
music - for - uniting - the • Americas
movement, and announced the proj
ect, originally planned for at least
two years, probably would be carried
on indefinitely.
Curiosity Opening Wedge.
Since the movement—one of sev
eral phases of a general American
unity through music program—got
under way a year ago last October,
Mr. Buttelman said he noted:
1. A sharp rise in the Latin Ameri
can folk lore music being used in
the music departments of the
schools throughout the United
States, as well as a steadily Increas
ing spread of the popular or “Tin
Pan-Alley" types in other places, In
cluding the radio—and a correspond
ing advance in the popularity of
North American music in the other
new world republics.
2. TTie springing up of a legion
of natural friendships between
North and South Americans as a re
sult of visits to North American
schools by professors, teachers and
students of music from the other
American republics.
Mr. Buttelman attributed the
rapid growth of friendships through
music to the “natural curiosity that
one musician has for another's
work”—a curiosity which becomes
the opening and unforced wedge to
mutual understandings in other in
terests.
“Because the curiosity is not
forced,” he said, "it becomes much
easier to integrate Interests through
culture than through commerce. A
salesman may be suspect, but when
one musician visits another musician
—Just for a visit, with nothing to
sell—their mutual curiosity leads to
understandings of other problems
and results in lasting friendships.
The original contact is all that is
needed to establish these very fine
understandings.
Sympathetic Attitude.
“Something that happened to me
illustrates the point. After I had
met Luiz Heitor Correa de Azevedo,
a musicologist from the University
of Brazil, at the Pan-American
Union in Washington. I learned so
much about Brazil that for the first
time In my life I found myself
anxious to go to Rio.
"Until then south America nan
seemed as far away to me as Asia.
Literally hundreds of other persons
making a musical contact with this
one man. have exactly the same
feeling that I have. It would be
hard for me now to have anything
but a sympathetic attitude toward
all of South America, particularly
Brazil.”
The Music Educators’ Conference
Is a department of the National Ed
ucation Association. Approximately
00 different musical organizations,
including more than a score of
State associations of music teachers
—representing Instructors from
kindergartens to universities, are
affiliated with the conference.
When the conference's Board of
Directors adopted its general Amer
ican unity through music program
in October of 1040 the plan was sub
mitted to the heads of the organi
zation’s units for execution. The
results were so gratifying that Mr.
Buttelman ventured his prediction
it would be carried on indefinitely.
In addition to the music for unit
ing the Americas phase, the general
program was designed to stimulate
music as a morale builder during the
defense emergency, promote the
consistent use of patriotic and na
tional songs in the schools and col
leges afid extend the general knowl
edge and appreciation for American
folk and pioneer tunes.
Federal Agencies Co-operate.
The unity for the Americas activ
ities have the support and co-oper
ation of the Pan-American Union,
the Institute of International Edu
cation and two Government agen
cies, the Office of the Co-ordinator
of Inter-American Affairs and the
Music Advisory Committee of the
State Department.
"While our group is taking the
leadership In this movement,” Mr,

Foreign Policy Association
Points to Change in
Picture From Last War
Any substantial American expedi
tionary forcfe will have to be carried
by United States merchant ships trv
stead of by British vessels, as in the
last war. the Foreign Policy Asso
ciation said yesterday.
The heavy demand on British and
American shipping for moving raw
materials to this country and war
goods to the anti-Axls countries has
changed the picture since the World
War, said a report by the association,
a privately funded organisation.
The report estimated that 7,000,
000 tons of shipping would be needed
to supply an American expeditionary
force of 2,000.000 men located 3,000
miles away. To transport one soldier
that distance, the report said, would
require 17 deadweight tons of ship
ping.
"On the basis of these figures,” the
association added, "an expeditionary
force of this size would engage the
great bulk of American tonnage that
has until now been employed in
maintaining a steady flow of raw
materials coming into and war sup
plies going out of the United States.”
Hie magnitude of this p-oblem,
the report said, was contemplated by
President Roosevelt when he asked
Congress on January 6 to provide for
the building of 8.000.000 deadweight
tons of shipping in 1942 and 10,000,
000 tons the following year.
Buttelman said, "we are getting help
from our neighbor organizations,
the National Congress of Parents
and Teachers, the Music Teachers’
National Association and the Na
tional Association of Schools of
Music.
"One object is to insure that when
concerts are given, or when music
is played over the air, that it will
be the kind the South Americans
themselves will be glad to have
heard—and to make sure that the
audience knows what type is being
presented—whether it's the type
that represents the folk lore or
is simply a sort of invention based
on the native tunes of South
America.
The Tin-Pan-Alley type# are o. k.,
but our serious-minded musical ed
ucators do not wish the people to be
entirely immersed in this kind of
South American music alone.”

■r th« AuodiUd Prm.
SAGINAW, Mich., Jan. M.—Wal
ter P. Reuther, head of the C. I. O.
United Auto Workers’ Union’s Gen

labor must have a voice in wartime
and post-war production to avoid
"a depression making the last (me

Mr. Reuther, author of the Reu

country will go into "another eco
nomic talispin'' after the wdr.
"Unless labor is given a place at
the council table,” he added, “we re
going to be in another financial
mess — chaos and unemployment
which will make 1831 and 1833 look
like a pink tea party.”
He assailed the “fat dollar-a-year

Whole Wheat Bread is consid
ered so healthful that many
people feel they ought to eat
it every day, but they just
naturally like the taste of
White Bread much better.
For those people we suggest
eating Rice's Wheaten Bread.
Here's a bread that has all the
important vitamins and min
erals of Whole Wheat Bread.
Yet it's just as delicious as
White Bread . . . and just as
Easy to Eat.
