There will be no incentive to produce a better gadget. There will be no reward for more productive labor. The tax-privileged co-ops will run everything. “They deny the right of a small merchant to make a profit. They say there should be no retailers ‘or wholesalers. They want the rejailers’ profit for themselves. They fail to support their government. They intend to take over all the country’s business, and they will be successful unless they are made to pay their full share of federal income taxes. “These are ok Just rumors, They are the announced objectives of various leaders in the co-op movement in America.”

Rains Reduce Oats Seeding
140-60 Per Cent,
Wheat Outlook Generally Good
Continued rains have cut oats seeding in central Indiana counties from 40 to 60 per cent, reports from agricultural agents indicated today. However, there is still ample time, if the weather man co-operates, to prepare corn ground for planting without too much delay. Farm work in Bartholomew county is running from two to three weeks behind schedule, according to John Fletcher, county AAA chairman, April rainfall at Columbus, Bartholomew county seat, was 8.05 inches, as compared to a 56-year average of 3.6,inches for the month. In only the last 56 years have the Aprils been wetter. “Little plowing has been done and few oats have been sown,” Mr. Fletcher said, “but with a little dry weather many farmers can make up this lost time. With tractors equiped with lights, they will work 16 to 18 hours a day when weather permits.”
Water Stands in Fields
In Montgomery county, where April rainfall was 6.17 inches, or about twice normal, oats seeding has been cut in half, estimates Gordon Sowers, county farm agent. Plowing for corn is less than 10 per cent completed, with water still standing in many fields. “All in all, the moral of the farmers is sagging pretty badly,” observed Mr, Sowers. On the bright side is the fact that winter wheat, grass and spring-seeded clover have been greatly benefited by the excess rainfall. Henry county farmers are reported about a month behind they usual schedule, reports County Agent W. G. Smith. The late, wet

fields fall into the “excellent” category. Less than one-third of Hancock county’s normal” oats acreage has been seeded. Most farmers who have been delayed plan “to put their acreage to other crops unless they can get the oats into the ground this week. Hancock - normally has a large acreage of tomatoes. Most plants are grown in the southern states and inasmuch as the season is late there too the plants will not be too large when shipped here in another two-or three weeks. “Give the farmers 10 days or two weeks of good weather and most of the corn and soy bean ground will be broken and. planting will not be too far delayed, said County

immediately. Despite the delayed season, Prof. R. R. Mulvey, Purdue university agronomist, is encouraging continued seeding of oats. He has been studying the effeet of weather conditions on oats varieties for 27 years, and said that the current season is almost exactly like 1920, when farmers planted the oats crop under difficult’ conditions. The 1920 crop exceeded the average of previous ears and was not exceeded again in the state for 20 years. “The oats crop that year was not all seeded in the state unitl the latter part of the second week in May,” Prof. Mulvey recalled.

The 90 per cent parity law for farm prices should be made permanent he argued. World markets should be secured for farm surpluses and subsidies used, if needed, to keep prices up, Mr. Rohrer maintained. Only high wages and high prices can create a $300 billion. annual income, which is necessary for prosperity and to service and pay off the national debt he said. Good Selling Price “I do not mind paying higher prices for the things I buy, when I receive a good price for the things I sell” Mr. Rohrer told the com-
mitteemen. “Then the thrifty man can lay up some money. In depression times no one can lay up a cent. We simply must reverse our depression psychology of ‘I can buy cheaper tomorrow, or next month or next “Let the secretary of agriculture arnounce the recession has goné far enough in commodities which are sinking in price. Let him serve notice on all not to sell America short. “America gave birth to the atomic age. Now let her show the world the best, most prospérous and sta-

Truman Plea "False Economy’
Charles C. Rohrer Says Low Prices Would Result in Poverty-Stricken Peasant
Times Washington Bureau : T.~President Truman's plea to force down food prices was termed “false economy” today by an Indiana dirt farmer. ‘Charles O. Rohrer, who operates five farms at North Manchester, told a house agriculture subcommittee that low prices for farm products would turn the independent American farmer ‘into a poverty-stricken | Delia
