to meet the expenses of Government and to keep the wheels of industry turning for you and for all of us There is no man woman or child residing in this district or earning his livelihood here from agriculture or trade or manufacturing or hanking or school teaching or from any profession or occupation whodoes not benefit by the presence of the beet sugar industry Last year for example the sugar industry in the Box Elder County district created nearly $250000000 of new wealth A crop for over a thousand fanners sugar beets produced a three year average gross return for 1937 1938 1939 in direct payments and Government Benefits of $9260 per acre (with a final payment from the ComLivestock growers benefited likewise from the presence of the industry pany still expected for 1939 beets) bat COLOMEAFiDERitlG By TTie National tion' ary the Stanley Johnson Booksellers' Associabestows several liter- annually awards that are to comparable Academy Awards In the movie lmnortant field Their most recognition a of merit are those which go to the best book of fiction and of of the year Their 1939 swards fust annonne ed were riven ' John Steinbeck’s “The Or now of Wrslh " and novel tu the' French Aviator Artloiu d to Lis aeeonnt St Exnprev “Wind Band piloting When When read of Wrath" not I of air snV mall Star" "The Grants concur vrith In calling It “the opinion novel of the generation" and “the Miserable’ ' of America" 'Les Tho It had a certain Wwer In Its writing I dldQ no$ even think It the best novel of the t year but Instead public to Daphne du gave that honor Maurier’s "Rebecca” I was thei( minority however “The Cranes of Wrath" was the 'best selling novel of the year and the critics raped It a mastemlece Indeed Mar tort Hansen told me she thought It “the greatest novel ever written" a statement she makes of no more than a dosen books a year Perhaps I reed John Steinbeck’s to get the full story too rap'dly meaning he put Into It at any rate Ishall not crttlctae - the book un- it til I have read again My intention in mentioning the booksellers' awards was to approve of the honor won thoroughly by Bland “Wind and Stars” I believe It Is not only the best book of 1839 but of many years It Is a beautifully written ac-- j fount of pain and passion of life and death of men who live danger- owly and who are coiutaatlly near their fate and their God There is an elemental simplicity in their living that Is here told with economy of words and suppression of g The New York Times weekly tabulates a 1H of best selling books thruout the country similar to the hit parade survey of popular songs Each Times publishes Monday the a list of the six most popular fiction and books of the week A year previous ago when “Wind Sand and Stars" was published it became at once the national best seller and by way of Is setting an unprecedented record still on that list!

For what other crop can you find such a dependable market year after year? What will you plant as a substitute for sugar beets if you decide not to plant beets this year or any - year?— What will your -- 350 to 400 - neighbors-d- o who earn more than $150000 your own townsfolk day during the processing season in the factory per or at receiving stations if you do not produce enough beets to keep the factory open? What will your and the railroad workers neighbors the merchants and the beet field laborers and all others who benefit by this industry do if anything should happen to the sugar industry in this district even for one year? Who would make up the loss of income for the maintenance of our schools or the building of roads or for other public and private activities? Unreasonable Let us look at the qustions you say? Impossible? and fairly before we take heedless facets squarely aion It 'Can’t Happen Here? A beet sugar factory is a boon to every town that is favored by a climate and soil and an adequate water supply for the growing of sugar beets Communities fight for the bringing of a new sugar fac- Chambers of Commerce merchants tory to town farmers railroads bankers all citizens rejoice when news is released that a sugar factory is to be erected Business booms when the industry is launched Everybody is made richer and happier as a result through good years and lean We are all better off for the operation of the sugar factory There is no There is no subdenying that Everybody agrees stitute for sugar beets and the cash returns from them farmers to and through the industrial and agricultural payrolls they produce and in the tax revenue the industry creates It is hard for a community to get a sugar factory started much harder ' than' it js to close one and once closed even for a single year some factories ' have never reopened i Let’s Face The Facts i This is mot a threat Thirty-seve- n years ago we cast our lot with Garland and we have been here in-' ever since We hope to continue as a useful part of We want to remain with you and your community cooperate with you for many years to come We want to be a “good citizen” of this community We want to be a good neighbor Our sons and our daughters have grown up among you and belong to you Our dollars are invested here in expensive factories and hearts here But Our too are neither equipment this Company nor any beet sugar company is any We' are limited by longer a free agent completely conditions and by terms of the Federal Sugar Act This Year May be The Most Important Year in Box Elder County History Normally under the terms of the 1937 Sugar Act individual growers and factory districts are limited in their allotments But this is an unusual year in the beet sugar industry Because of the loss of thousands of planted acres in the Sacramento River Val' ley and because of continued drouth on the Eastern slopes of the Rockies the Secretary of Agriculture recently removed all sugar beet planting restrictions for 1940 while continuing benefit payments to growers and sugar sales quotas for processors As a result beet growers in some other states are planting more beets than ever before In other districts where we have accurate information applications from growers ' for increased acreage are being received Under the normal' operation of the 1937 sugar act (and the rule same will probably apply to its successor) the planting records that you make this year and every year may influence the planting allotments for r this district in future years Can you afford to risk your position for next year and possibly for years to come by failing to plant a consistently large acreage of sugar ' beets in 1940? Box Elder County needs the beet sugar industry Every citizen in this State needs it We need your Let’s continue support and you need ours to work together for the preservation and prosperity of Box Elder County’s beet sugar industry Sat- 18 Be sure to begin serial of- - love new by Wallace Irwin famous author in The American Weekdistributed with the magazine ly next Sunday’s LOS ANGELES EXAMINER “Mrs this and through a cheap and ideal feed which is sold back to beet growers at a lower price per ton by processors in Utah and Idaho than is offered to growers by any other processor in the nation This is an industry that consistently pays Box Elder County farmers more than any other crop they can raise year after year with equal certainty of a cash market Utah Idaho Sugar Company ' j |
