Mothers frequently had to takf Jobs which kept them away from home, leaving boys and girls to their own social and recreational devices. Frequently, families pulled up roots and moved to teeming Industrie! centers in other parte of th country where Jobe could be had in war plants. Normal living waa impossible under such overcrowded conditions. There was a general spirit of wartime abandon which Impressionable youth waa not long In catching lack of discipline, lack of personal responsibility, became the aceepted thing. A war hero attitude developed in many of those too young to "Join up." Then teen-ag- e boys and girls found that because of the manpower shortage they could stop school and take Jobs where they would make more money than some of their elders did before the war. Coming suddenly onto what seemed sudden wealth, and of their own making, found them unprepared to use It wisely. ,rW have been developing a generation of money-ric- h nd eharae-ter-poo- r Americans."

The record year was 1942. Next was 1944 and indications are that this year will exceed 1943, so that 19(5 may be the third best Credit for this epic achievement must go to the nations farmers, but the contribution of the fertilizer industry should not be overlooked. Agricultural authorities estimate that more than 30 per cent of the crop production in the war years has been due to the use of fertilizers. The use of plant foods has been of essential importance to the food production program because It has enabled fanners to produce bigger crops on existing acres Instead of having to plow up millions of acres of additional farm land. The saving in labor, equipment and man hours O has been enormous.

This lobby Is spearheaded' by an organization known as the National Physicians committee, with headquarters in Chicago. Every effort is being made by this opposition to defeat the provisions of the new social security intendments, all in the face of the wants, j needs and desires of those for whom the benefits are intended. Labor is solidly behind the new social securi--1 ty proposals and a survey Just com- - j pleted by the department of agriculture indicates that this same concern is voiced by farmers the country over. i The war production of gardes craps reached a aew high.

Even if prices should come down to government-suppolevels a drop of perhaps 15 per cent below present peaks farm purchasing power will be enormous. The farmer has a higher amount to spend out of his income than other wage earners, for the reason that less of bis income is required for rent, food end fuel than Is the case with city dweller. Six million farm families comprising approximately 30 million people having a gross income in excess of 20 billion dollars a year will be a factor of tremendous importance to America's peacetime economy. Farmer la Strong Position. Just as significant as agricultures high Income rate in recent years is the fact that the farmer haa been laying aside a good portion of his savings in war bonds to spend for essentials in years to come. Clearly the farmer haa emerged from the war in a stronger position than he was at its start. To maintain that position the farmer should do some straight thinking and planning. Two things 1 He are especially important: should avoid overexpansion through the purchase of additional land in the peace years ahead; 3 He should make immediate plans to repair the damage to hi soil's fertility level which the vast war crop production quotas have caused. The experience of the last war with its farm land boom and subsequent collapse should be a reminder that the American farmer should not go In for more land than he can successfully handle. Farm land prices have already risen dangerously toward inflation levels. Farsighted agricultural authorities are urging farmers to keep their shirts on" and steer clear of the pitfalls of land speculation. Better soil management methods on a and economicat ly operated farm will prove safer in the long run than vast fields without efilcient management. The key to successful farming operations in postwar year will lie in increasing the per acre yield on existing crop land rather than in bringing additional acreage under cultivation, a recent statement by the Middle West Soil Improvement committee pointed out rt In months to come the emphasis will be on reducing the cost at crop ' production per unit," the statement seta forth. "That means making every acre do a better crop producing job. In every community there are farmer who Increased their wartime crop output as high as 50 per cent without increasing the cultivated area by one single acre. In every case the larger yield was ths result of adopting good soil fertility practice. The experience of these farmers can be profitably followed by their neighbor in their peacetime operations. Their methods not only prevented waste of fertility, but actually have helped restore it Such methods include growing legumes to enrich the soil's nitrogen and organic matter supply, the use of adequate quantities of mixed fertilizers containing nitrogen, phosphorus and potash, liming, contour plowing and a limiting, so tar as possible, of crops." Soil Fertility Replenishment The matter of soil fertility replenishment will have an important bearing on the peacetime continuation of farm prosperity. If th nation's farms are to be kept pro- Contract Settlement has been working long hour to speed up these settlements. Reconversion Director Snyder reports that about 80.030 contractors and their employees have been trained in special courses and know about settlement procedure.
