INDIANA LABOR, FARM, INDUSTRY POLICIES URGED Editor Advocates Formulation of Plans Before City Realtors. Samuel R. Guard, editor and owner of Breeders’ Gazette, published at Spencer, today told members and guests of the Indianapolis Real Estate Board that Indiana should formulate state policies on agriculture, labor and industry and put them into effect regardless of the outcome of next fall's election. Mr, Guard also advocated an agricultural enabling act to carry out provisions of the National Soil Conservation and Domestic Allotment Acts. He declared the state administrative agency should be of farmers rather than the agricultural college. The speaker attacked present political leadership, charging the budget is unbalanced, and asserted that the waste in governmental expenditures. if eliminated, would save agriculture and industry. “Adjustment Is on Spot’ “Right now agricultural adjustment is on the spot,’’ Mr. Guard said. “It is made to appear that we farmers have flimflammed the country. I suggest that the mistake was not in paying the producer to balance his production, but rather in foolishly undertaking to conceal his identity and to cover up the amount of thesubsidy. The name of every farmer who contracted with the Secretary of Agriculture to carry out the government’s plan, together with the amount of his benefits checks, should have been printed in the local newspapers. “Any one who believes that farmers joined in the AAA because they were paid to do it. knows nothing of farmer nature. Farmers are one class not on the dole. Secretary Wallace- could save $500,000,000 between now and election time if he wanted to do so, and still receive the active and earnest co-operation of farm people in carrying out the act. Co-Operate With Government “Farmers are not co-operating with their government to secure benefit checks primarily; they are co-operating to balance agricultural production and stabilize prices. The reason 1 aimers signed corn-hog contracts was to balance the production of corn and to stabilize the price of hogs. That objective was accomplished fairly and it is the reason why three-fourths of the farm producers are strong for the AAA. “But the Supreme Court of the United States reminded us that the state had certain powers which the Federal government has not. One of the state powers is to regulate agricultural production. Why not let us be about it? Let us perfect an Indiana Ran of Agricultural Recovery. “No state plan of agricultural recovery, however, can well be approved by the Secretary of Agriculture unless it provides for participation in the administration of the plan by county and community committees or associations or agricultural producers organized for such purpose.’’

WPA GardeiF Leaders Receiving Training Course to Aid Relief Clients Grow Their Own Produce

Experienced Men Selected as Instructors for Project Workers. Today found 60 men—some whitehaired—seated at desks in Indiana University Extension Center taking notes on gardening. Under the sponsorship of the Works Progress Administration's education division and the gardening and food conservation division lof the Governor’s Commission on ! Unemployment Relief, the men are attending a 10-day training con;ference for teachers in gardening and canning. The men, formerly teachers on relief rolls who have been garden supervisors or identified with garden work in their communities, have been selected by WPA for this year's individual garden project work for persons on direct relief or receiving supplemental aid. Stress Individual Work Dr. H. E. Young, state director of the garden and food conservation department, gave a picture of the program which is under direct supervision of township trustees. The program requires that the trustees supply grounds for group gardens to those who do not have space of their own. “Since WPA has taken a number of families off direct relief the number of individual gardens will be reduced,’’ he said, “but this year the individual rather than the mass gardens will be stressed. In communities where the direct relief load is heavier, the chances are the trustee will wish to continue the mass garden work. “The program has been continuour four years,” he continued. “Last year the program included 127,210 individual gardens in which 92 counties in the state participated, and about 200,000 acres of mass gardens. Will Can Crops The mass gardens are devoted to four or five storage and canning crops, while the individual gardens are confined to standard garden produce consisting of about 10 staple articles. Persons on direct relief or employed on work projects are to be permitted to enroll in the courses which are to aid them in selecting, planting, tending, harvesting and ; preserving garden produce. Instruction also is to be given in poultry raising, the care of fruit and shade trees, repair of garden equipment and the care of yards, flowers and shrubs. At the close of the training school for teachers, classes in gardening are to start in all parts of the state. Much of the class work is to be in the form of demonstrations, with meetings held in the field or orchard. Under the supervision of the trustees, some of the garden land is now being plowed and at the completion of the teachers’ training course will be ready for work. The canning classes are to begin early in summer. Brann to Seek Senate Seat By United Press HALLOWELL, Me., April 9. Louis J.
