early adoption of constructive
policies for long-run postwar

sideration a list of ten major
problems pertaining to each of
the two postwar stages which

And proponents of compul-
sory manpower legislation have
adopted a watchful-waiting at-
titude, ready to take advantage
of any worsening of the situat-
ion.
My old school teacher used to
say. “Never use a preposition to
end a sentence with.”
Manpower is still the chief
muddle here with the to-draft-
or-not-to-draft father dilemma
having been pretty well decided
in favor of drafting. This does
not end the story, however, since
the problem still remains of
properly dividing men between
the battlefronts and the pro-
duction lines.

Caught in the middle of all
this is industry which simul-
taneously was accused by Select-
ive Service Director Hershey of
hoarding labor and hit by the
Army’s demands for greatly in-
creased production schedules in
the next six months. All this
.coupled with War Manpower
Commission warnings that war
^industries must hold their pres-
ent workers or lose their con-
tracts to employers who can!
The Administration’s position
still is not clear. Spokesmen in-
timate that they are weighing
the temper of Congress and
closely watching the outcome of
the experimental West Coast
labor priorities plan, hoping
that if successful it might prov.

Rural Teachers To
Meet Saturday
Miss Mary Shipp Sanders,
rural school supervisor of ele-
mentary education for Johnson
county, was a pleasant caller at
The Tribune office Tuesday. Miss
Sanders left the following notice
pertaining to a rural teachers’
meeting Saturday:
A discussion of the new ele-
mentary course of study and the
placement of textbooks under
the eight year elementary school
plan will mark the general meet-
ing of rural teachers in the edu-
cational room at the courthouse
in Cleburne, Saturday morning
from 10 to 12 o’clock.
Plans for the county-wide ob-
servances of American Educa-
tional Week, Nov. 7 to 13, and
Children’s Book Week, Nov. 14,
to 20, will also be discussed.
At this meeting materials for
enrollment in the Junior Red
Cross will be distributed and the
gift boxes now being filled by
the children to be sent overseas
will be brought in. Several
questions will be discussed dur-
ing the session, one of these will
be, “When and how shall we
teach physical education in the
small schools?”

Chapultepec Castle is one of
the most interesting places in
Mexico City. The castle, known
as the “White House of Mexico,”
has served as the residence of
presidents and was the home of
Emperor Maximilian and Emp-
ress Carlotta. “ Chapultepec"
means “grass-hopper” and there
is a huge bronze statue of a
grasshopper beside the pool in
the yard. Situated on top of a
hill in the edge of a great park,
the castle commands a magnifi-
cent view of the city. The edifi-
ce is a show place, open to the
public, and one admires the or-
nate and costly furnishings
who reside in Missouri; and 12

The so-called “slack” season
on the' farm, the winter months
and all the months 1 prior to
planting are just about on us.
now is the time to put into effect
those practices that will increase
yields of next years crops. Most
of these practices are simple and
can be used by any farmer with-
out technical ansistance.
Austrian Winter Peas should
be planted as soon as possible,
this is one of the quickest meth-
ods of increasing production of
crops since they can be followed
by com or cotton next spring.
Get your Hubam Clover seed
as soon as possible so that you
will have it next February to
overseed grain crops. Hubam
Clover is not only the best soil
builder found for the Blackland,
but it is also proving highly
profitable as a cash crop. From
all indication, there may not be
enough seed to go around this
year, so get it immediately.
Now is the best time of the
year to sod Bermuda grass on
land that is to be used for pas-
ture. The better your pasture,
the less cost of producing beef

The AAA Office in Cleburne
has 70,000 pounds of Austrian
Winter Peas, which are available
to Johnson county farmers, free
of charge.
Most farmers who planted
winter peas and vetch last year
are wel pleased with the results
obtainFdand hxe already plant-
ed ,onp of the wmter crops this
fall. ,
TheOAAA Office issued 1,400
pounds of peas and 12,400
pounds of vetch in September.
The supply was exhausted, but
a second shipment was received
early in October. Since that
time the following men have re-
ceived seed, who reside in the
Grandview section: H. W. Hut-
chens, B. C. Lightfoot, Floyd
Reeves and Cecil Wallace.
As it is mow the proper time
for planting winter cover crops,
it is hoped that producers will
take advantage of this opportu-
nity to obtain seed as soon as ,
possible.

Austin, Oct. 11—“I am as sure
of the generosity of Texans on
the home front as I am of the
bravery of Texans on the battle-
fronts,” GokeR. Stvenson said
here Sunday night in opening
the county war fund. campaigns
of the United War Chest of ,
Texas with an appeal over
more than fifty radio stations.
Governor Stevenson, honorary ,
chairman of the state war chest,
and George A. Butler, president
and campaign chairman, called
on the.people of Texas to sub-
scribe nearly $5,000,000 to USO,
United Seaman’s Service, War
Prisoners Aid and the fourteen
other agencies of the National
War Fund.
“Texas men are on every war
front today,” Governor Steven-
son said. “The Texas spirit is
being appraised the world a-
round. It’s fighting spirit and
a generous spirit. Texans know
how to fight for what they be-
lieve in and how to give when
the cause is just.
“Texans at home are no less a
part of the struggle than the
men who have gone out from
Texas to fight, and the best way
to share in the victory to come
is by doing the job that keeps
our fighting men supplied with
the toals of war.”
“Texans,”, the governor said,
‘will meet this necessary goal
of the United War Chest of Tex-
as. They will join me in say-
ing ‘Sure, I’ll take A Texans
