CRUCIAL (Continued from page ont) Indiana Farm Bureau, said: “This wheat situation isn't good and it‘6 getting worse with days like today. I checked this morning with the Farm Bureau Cooperative Association—this group has some 200 local country elevators. They have received only about a fourth to a third as much wheat this year.as they had by the same time a year ago.” Doup agreed with Straszheim that ‘if this weather would dry up over the weekend,” the picture would change for the better. However, Doup believed the quality of wheat will be lower this year than last. He said an emergency arrangement concluded late Thursday by the Farm Bureau with Illinois Secretary of State Charles Carpentier to allow grain trucks to haul wet wheat to Chicago area mills for drying will be a boon to Indiana elevators. He said "thousands of bushels" of wet wheat which local mills were unable to handle for drying thus can be saved. The emergency ; arrangement was needed because Illinois requires a reciprocity prmit for trucks not licensed in the state, and Doup said the time of getting the permits processed would have meant loss of some of the wet wheat. Doup said that many farmers have purchased drying equipment, despite its expense, for use on „.4hew -own- farms. — Hubert Alexander, head of the Farm and Home Administration, said reports from his supervisors over the state “give a pretty glum picture.” He added: “I’ve interviewed several farmers myself who won't have grocery money and don’t know which way to turn." Alexander said that on his own Rush County farm he has only one-third of the hay necessary for his livestock “and I’m fortunate:

compared" to most of the farmers I have talked to.” County agricultural agents have been advising farmers to utilize plastic “silos” to cut their loss by converting the ruined crops into silage. Alexander said that the actual weather-caused damage to Indiana farmers cannot be determined until harvest. But he read a letter he had received from a northeastern Indiana banker who said: "I am glad that you placed Adams County in the disaster list. Not only this year but last our crops were very bad. We actually are carrying over more farmers in proportion to the size of our bank than we have since 1934.” The Agriculture Stabilization and Conservation headquarters for the state reported that even the flood damage figure is in a state of flux with some Southern Indiana farmers still experiencing new flood damage. A midwestern meeting of ASC officials is underway today in Chicago, and a more accurate evaluation may emerge from this session. However, Indiana has 20 potential disaster counties as a result of June and July floods, compared to 12 disaster counties last year. As yet. Congress has not extended the disaster act which expired June 30, so state officials can only collect the loss figures and assume the extension will come. “'ThF-^o^ndlana-as 1958 flood disaster counties are Adams. Benton, Blackford. Carroll, Cass. Clinton, Gibson. Greene, Knox, Miami. Morgan, Owen. Parke. Putnam. Randolph. ! Sullivan, Vermillion, Vigo, Wabash, and White. At the moment, the wheat and oats crops are in the center of weather concern. The corn may. actually be helped by the same rains that are barring combines)

from the wheat and oats fields, except in cases of flooded-out land. Purdue's last report covered up to July 1 and listed the wheat crop expectations at 38,704,000, which is 120 per cent of last year. Straszheim noted that a considerable loss could be experienced and the total harvest still would be above 1957 and above the 10-year-average. Corn prospets—at last report—was two per cent under last year and five per cent above the average at an estimated 258,100.000. Doup noted one oddity that is resulting from the rain-delayed combining of small grains: “It looks as though wheat and oats will be combined at the same time in Southern Indiana as in the northern end of the state. I don’t know when we have had a year like this.” Defends Exhibil Os Gein’s Death Car Concession Owner Defends Exhibit SLINGER. Wis. (UP>—Concession operator Bunny Gibbons, Rockford. 111., today defended his exhibit of “butcher” Ed Gein’s death car in the face of mounting opposition from Gein’s hometown of Plainfield, Wis. Gibbons said 2.000 “curious and morbid” people paid to see the car, which has been fitted with wax mannequins representing Gein and a victim, at a Seymour, Wis., fair last week. The exhibit opens today at a quarter a peek as part of a carnival playing at the Slinger Fair, j In Gein’s hometown. Villge [President Harold Collins said, “It doesn’t sound too good. There’s bound to be reaction if the has wax figures and things like that in it.” “There were a lot of people affected by Gein in Plainfield." he said. Gein, a shy handyman murdered two women and admitted robbing the graves of others before he was discovered and committed to the Central State HospitalT&r the criminally insane at Waupun. He kept trophies of his grisly activities in a ramshackle house of horrors near Plainfield. Gibbons said he paid $l5O for the car at an auction of Gein's possessions and spent $3,000 for the mannequins and pictures of the killer robbing graves and about to kill a woman. "People want to see this kind of thing,” Gibbons said. He said his show was “no worse” than past carnival exhibits of the cars owned by gangster John Dillinger and Adolph Hitler. “Someday I’ll play Plainfield,” he vowed. Trade in a good town — Decatur.

One of these would put up a fence that would sag and break; but he would be prompt and obliging About coming to make it right The other man would put

' I ’’Mpg JwaEft Dr. Foreman

up a fence that will last for years without attention. You would have no hesitation which man to put on the job. The better fence-builder is the man who puts up a good fence, not the

one who neatly patches up a bad one. Now justice, wherever you find it, is like that. Justice is more than making good a wrong that has been done. Justice at its best is keeping the wrong from being done. Yau Ba tha Judge Justice reigns in community life, not when all suits at law are settled right—though even that would be remarkable. True justice —the mark to shoot at —will reign when human relations, including group relations, in that community, are such that law-suits will never be necessary. Such a goal is impossible? Well, yes • . . but so is the goal of a perfectly healthy community, so is the goal of a perfectly educated community; but doctors and teachers keep working — “working themselves out of a job,” and so it is that in the best community there will be the least patching-up to do, in homes, court-rooms, hospitals or on the mourners’ bench. Remembering then that justice means simply right relationships between man, between group and group, let us note a few cases, none of them imaginary, It is plain in every case that injustice exists. The problem is: From the Christian point of view—that is, in Christ’s eyes—what would now be the just thing to do? And could you suggest a better just thing that perhaps might have been done if someone had thought of it in time? You be the judge. Cm of the Sevealh Church There is a community barely large enough to support one church. There were six different denominational churches in it, and no member of any one of these would attend any of the others. Along came the representative of a seventh denomination to start still another congregation. When the ministers already “there" (though not one of the six lived there) protested, asking him if he didn’t think the gospel was already pretty well represented, „ he replied with dignity: “The gospel is never really presented till we present it.” Is there something wrong here, and if so, what can be done, or what could have been done, about it? Cm of the Underpaid Cook In a small southern town there was a Negro girl whose name makes no difference with the case. She worked for private families as a cook—and she was a very poor one—for five dollars a week. This was low wages but at that time it was what even the better cooks there received. The girt lived in a draughty crowded shack with her own and several other families, who, being of the race they were and living in the state they did, could afford nothing better. This girt first contracted tuberculosis and spread it around Where she worked; and then she got in trouble with the law for prostitution; and finally died in an institution, after costing the state quite a bit of money. What do you think could have been done to prevent some of this, and why do you suppose it was not done ? Cm es the Emberraeeed Government The United States •Government is hoarding enormous ware-house-fuls erf butter and many other products, which it has bought to keep farmers in business. It would like to sell these in the world market, perhaps at auction; but when it tries to do so, it num into strong opposition from other countries with which our government would then be in direct competition. Is there some injustice here, and if so, what can be done about it now, and what could have been done to prevent it?
