1 The Daily Bannar, Greeneastle, Indiana Wednesday, May 26, 1965 Letter To The Editor
Dear Editor: May 23-30 of this year is set aside as Soil Stewardship Week. The theme for the week is “Challenges of Growth.” It seems foolish to have to say much about this subject because it is so basic. All our lives are dependent on the soil and its productivity. The problem is that we often take the most basic things in life for granted. That may be our attitude toward Soil Stewardship. But we must not allow ourselves that luxury. We live in a world where the population is growing. Demands for food surpass the ability to produce in many parts of the world. In our own country whefe we talk about surplus, this same pressure will soon be felt. Whereas the U. S. now numbers 180 million, by the year 2,000 we will probably number 330 million plus. At our current yields we will need 550 million acres fore farm land to meet the need. Today we have only about 50 million extra acres and these are being lost to non-agricultural uses — highways, urbanization, airports, factories, etc. Close to one-half million acres a year are lost to erosion and other types of soil
depletion. At present It takes 2.5 acres per person to produce the average diet of the average American. By 1975 we will have about 2.2 acres per person; by 2000 we will have about 1.6 acres per person. God has blessed us with rich, fertile, productive soil. It does not belong to this generation. It was passed on to vis by our forefathers and we will pass it on to our children. The question is: Will we jeopardize their strength and health with our neglect and greed ? As stewards of that which belongs to God and of that which has been given to all generations we must practice good soil stewardship. We who live in towns and cities must give our support both morally and financially for we too are sustained by God’s good earth. ‘ use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.” (Gal. 5:13) It is our hope that every farmer will use the services of his local Soil and Water Conservation District and put the proper land-use practices on the land. Stanley D. Nicol, pastor First Baptist Church

INDIANAPOLIS UPI — There is little evidence that Indiana Republican leaders have listened to the advice of California Sen. George Murphy to “stop chewing on each other.” Although there is virtually nothing to fight over, following the Democratic landslide last fall, the bickering among party chiefs persists. The apparent first goal of the party rebels is the removal of Robert N. Stewart as state chairman. The ouster movement appears to be headed by H. Dale Brown, Indianapolis, 11th District chairman, and Robert E. Gates, Columbia City, 4th District chairman. Stewart for some time has considered resigning, but insists upon choosing his successor, according to reports. Buena Chaney, Terre Haute, 6th District chairman, is said to be Stewart’s choice. However, Stewart Is bereft of enough votes in the state committee to install Chaney, the insiders say. There is a similar dearth of state committee votes for the ouster endeavor of the rebels, it
appears.
The upshot is a stalemate, affecting campaigning for 1966 and the collection of campaign funds. District reorganization meetings will not be compelled until May, 1966. according to the state election laws. In this reorganization, there will be the added confusion of congressional reapportionment. A number of leaders wish that Stewart would authorize immediate reorganization based on ' the new district lineup. Former State Sen. D. RusseW Bontrager. 1964 senatorial nominee, is reported to be a factor in the sitlation. Despite his defeat by Democratic Sen. Vance Hartke, he is said to retain hia political ambitions. Hartke's margin over Bontrager wes less than that of the Democratic presidential and gubernatorial nominee, it has been pointed out. In that endeavor, Paul Green, Lebanon, Boone County chairman, played a big part as Bontrager's campaign manager. Green, a veteran campaigner who has developed substantial GOP leaders in Boone County for a number of years and who has a politically astute wife, has been mentioned seriously for state chairman. Mrs. Green was head of the women's organization for Bontrager. Green, who sells parking ! meters in many parts of the state, keeps his contacts with the county chairmen who will have much to say about the state chairmanship. Peace may be wonderful, but it doesn’t seem to loom in the Hoosier GOP situation.

U. 5. Marines On Way Home SANTO DOMINGO UPI — U. S. Marines, the first unwounded American troops to leave the Dominican Republic since last month’s landings, board ships for the homeward journey today. They are to go aboard the Boxer, a converted aircraft carrier lying offshore. It was not certain how r many Marines would leave today, but the number was not expected to exceed a few hundred. The Boxer will not sail at once, because the Marines boarding today will not be a full load for the ship. The U. S. Navy has ruled that its ships cannot leave the Dominican area until they are fully and economically loaded. The converted carrier has accommodations for a Marine detachment of 10 officers and 323 men to man and maintains its 30 helicopters and for an additional 1.650 military passen-
gers.
