Z - .gpo On Foreign Aid Word has come to us of a tragic turn of events in one of the foreign aid programs. Let us describe it to you. •,!< ' There is a small country of some 3 million people, struggling for the past three years for its independence from a major European power. “We” have been helping this country — in fact, we have paid for about 90% of its ammunition, sent our fleet to protect its shores, sent our engineers and technicians in large, numbers, and even helped them exten- ■ ** -40 , sively in their foreign affairs. And how have “we” been repaid? Now we discover that they have been making a treaty * with the enemy behind our backs, even though we had agreed never to make a separate peace; they have even included a secret article, guaranteeing a better boundary to the enemy, if they take more land from a nation quite close to us. What do you think “we” should do? Denounce all foreign aid, stop helping the country in question? I expect that’s what most people would say. And certainly our Congressman, E. Ross Adair, who came home for Christmas rather than finish up his business in Washington, for which he’s paid $22,500 a year, plus more thousands in expenses, wduld have opposed aid—he was paired against the bill before leaving. Fortunately, the “we” referred to above did no such thing. Because the little country of which we spoke was the United States, and Louis XVI, the Most Christian King, stood up his countrybumpkin American friends despite their rude treatment of his quite considerable aid. For, as historian James Brown Scoot points out, “without foreign help independence could not have been had.” - . 4 Yes, we owe our independence today to the “foreign aid” we got “from France, Spain and the Netherlands. Who knows how much help we may get some day from those very countries we have been helping in our present aid program? Editorial written by He|l „

A SCS Farm Notes

PLAN ACP SPRING PRACTICES NOW: Farmers who have been considering isoil-and-water-conservation practices to be established on their farms with agricultural conservation program cooperation next spring and summer should file their requests for program assistance as soon as possible. Applications will be accepted beginning January 2, and should be filed at least six weeks before the practice is to be started “to provide ample time for county committee approval and the soil conservation service certifiation of need for the practice, if required. Under the 1964 program, costshare program assistance average about half the cost of carrying out such conservation practices as establishing and improving vegetative cover of grasses, legumes, or trees for soil protection; installing erosion-control structures; and practices for the conservation or more effecient use of water. In addition, the 1964 program provides for similar cost-share assistance to farmers in developing soil and water conservation practices primarily fgr the benefit of wildlife. These include’ the establishment of vegetative cover providing wildlife food and habitaOthe development of restoration 'Shallow water areas, and constructing of ponds or dams which provide important wildlife benefits. The agricultural conservation program has been in continous operation since 1936, when it was authorized by national legislation to encourage, farmers to protect soil, water, and woodland resources on the arms of the nation by sharing the costs of needed conservation measures. ACP program assistance has been singularly effective in introducing conservation practices on privately owned cropland, pasture or woodland and applies to practices which provide little or no immediate return. The soil conservation service is responsible for the technical phase of the following practices: establishment of a stand of trees on farmland to prevent wind or water erosion? construction of dams, pits, or ponds for livestock and poultry water: sod waterways; standard terraces; diversion terraces; constructing chutes; drop spillways, pine drop inlets; open drainage systems; underground drainage systems’; restoration of shallow water areas f&r wildlife and ponds or dams’for wildlife. However, applications for cost sharing must be filed and tentatively approved by the ASC county committee before the need will be checked by SCS. A Purdue soil test is required for practices* application of limestone, establishment of permanent vegetative cover and establishment of additional acreage of vegetative cover in crop rotation. To be valid this test mlist have been taken since January 1, 1963. Farmers are reminded that a request for cost-sharing must be filed in the ASCS county office, where the farm is listed, before the practice is started. JANUARY 31 DEADLINE FOR FILING ‘63 WOOL APPLICATIONS; Wool producers have until the end of January to file applications for 1963 marketing year (April 1, 1963 through December 31,' 1963) under the national wool act. X. January JI, 1964, is the last day for accepting payment applications in connection with marketings of either wool or .lambs during 1963. .* Since this is sev&ral months earlier than previous wool programs, producers urged to file application as soon as possible. Sales invoices must be presented !at the time the application is filled. Producers are urged to check all invoices to be sure that their own name and address is correct* on the invoice; the name and address and signature of the buyer is entered"and for woql sales, the*

number of pounds of wool sold; invoices for sales or purchases of unshorn lambs should show the above information in addition to the number of lambs sold or the weight and the words “unshorn lambs” must be entered. Invoices which do not show the'lHformation needed must be returned for completion, thug causing a ,delay in filing. The 1963 marketing year ends December 31, 1963. Future marketing years will be for a 12month period and will coincide with the calendar year. The January 31, |964 deadline for filing 1963 applications is in line with normal program flrdcedure of continuing to accept such applications for a month following the end of the marketing year. The necessary sales records accompanying the applications will be the basis for calculating the national average price received by farmers for wool during the 1963 marketing year. When the average price can be determined, the payment rates for shorn wool and unshorn lambs sold during the 1963 marketing year will be announced. Congress authorized the national woo Pact in order to encourage the. domestic production of wool. » 1964 FEED GRAIN PRODLCTON: O > 4 While spring, plantings may seem far in the future — it is time to*plan 1964. farming operations. And don’t forget to plan participation in the 1964 feed grain program, remembering that participation will help reduce surplus feed grains. Watch this column and the mail sent by this office for additional information. DID YOU KNOW THAT? Less than one-third of nation's people live in rural ateas. One-half of the families with incomes of less than $2,500 live in these rural areas. We can supply the needs of every person in this country — and export each year over $5 billion worth of farm products commercially and through the food for peace program — on the smallest acreage in 50 years, and with the smallest labor force in a hundred years. That we will need 50 million fewer acres than we now have crops within the span of 20 years. Eight per cent of our population feeds our 190 million people, with enough left over for a food-for-peace program in 100 countries, plus ample reserves against emergencies at home. — this compares with 50 per cent of the Soviet population producing a far less satisfactory and more expensive diet. This year, almost 16 million youngsters in 68,000 schools across the country will eat well-balanced noon meals under ' the national school lunch program. OUTPUT AND FARM ORGANIZATION: Crop and livestock output are at record levels; they set farm production in 1963 at a new peak—--27 per cent above 1950 and 2 per cent higher than last year. Prices of' most farm production inputs have risen and with the substantial’ increase in farm output since 1950, total farm production expenses- went up about 45 per cent. From 1962 to 1963, expenses rose about S6OO million. A similar increase 'is expected for 1964. Two of the major inputs — land and labor — have had large price advances — 91 and 60 per cent,, respectively. However, farmers have been substituting nonfarm inputs such as fertilizer and machinery for land and labor. The 80 per cent increase in the use of fertilizer was the main factor enaling larger crop production on fewer acres. Greater yields per acre and ln> creased output per head together have helped reduce the amount of labor used in farming by more than 40 per cent. Continued substitution of more productive in» puts for those of low or marginal return can enable farmers to produce the additional output required in 1964 with little or no in r

crease in inputs. The value of farm assets has continued upward in 1963 and will reach a record high of about $226 billion by January 1, 1964 — nearly $lO billion more than in 1963. Farm debts have also risen sharply but less than farm assets. Thus, farm equities ate expected by January 1 to show an increase for 1963 of about $7 billion. As in recent years, most of the gain in assets and equities in 1963 will result from the rise in farm real estate values. Physical farm assets other than real estate will be up nearly $1 billion this year; 0 farm financial assets will be about SSOO million higher. Production assets per farmworker nearly tripled between 1950 and 1963 when they totaled more than $51,000. The continued increase in the average size of farms — 213 to 314 acres — plus a higher value per acre accounted for most of the increase. With approximately two workers per farm this year, the average value of production assets per worker rose to $25,390, also nearly triple the 1950 figure. OMISSION — LIST OF ACT PRACTICES FOR 1964: - The practice — installation of underground drainage systems to dispose of excess water — was unintentionally omitted from the list of approved AC program practices for 1964. SAFETY CORNER: HOW TO GO ON ICE AND SNOW: The right answer can mean the difference between life and death. Almost anyone can learn to ‘drive on ice and, snow, they say, and this is true. But, too many drivers think that wheeling a two-ton mass of metal on slippery winter roads is as easy as gliding smoothly around a dance floor with a pretty girl. In a word, they are both difficult jobs to do well.Ahead of us lies one of the most hazardous seasons of the year, weatherwise. Slick pavements resulting from freezing rain, sleet, snow and ice, plusthe longer hours of darknesis that span both the morning and eveping peak traffic periods, create additional traffic hazards for all motorists on the streets, roads and highways of Indiana. It would be wise, therefore, for every driver to make a mental check of his or her driving ability to see’ how well they measure up to the correct observance and practice of the basic winter driving techniques. Driving safety on winter roads is l certainly not an idle pastime for “armchair experts’’ — it takes a lot ofrfactual, behind-the-wheel practical experience to drive on ice or snow. Safety experts say that the six primary hazards of winter driving are: (1) Inadequate traction to go; (2) Reduced ability, to stop; (3) Effect of lowering and rising temperatures on starting and stopping; (4) Accumulated ice and snow made more slick by traffic; (5) Reduced ability to see and be seen and <6> Recognition of the special hazards of winter driving — and the ability to know and cope with the techniques needed to drive safety, in spite of them. THE MOST DANGEROUS TIME OF THE YEAR ON THE ROAD: This holiday season is the most dangerious time of the year on the road. A few driving tips — don’t drive after drinking; allow ample time for trips; Don’t speed; use seat belts; watch out for pedestrians; and stay alert in dusk and darkness.
