From where I sit... ly Joe Marsh
Will's Proud
of His Big Ears
Will Dudley’s mighty proud of
his big ears! Best crop of corn he’s
grown since '38. And Will, like so
many Other farmers, has plenty of
reason to be proud of what he raises.
The farmer has always been a
keystone in our economic life, and
the key to our national well-being.
But from where I sit, he’s more
important now than ever. He’s not
only feeding America—but friends
of America overseas—building
good will for this country at'8 time
when friendship for democracy ip
most important.
And farmers have willingly
shouldered that responsibility. Will
spends extra hours in his cornfield
... comes home tired to a temper-
ate glass of beer and early bed, to
be ready for the next day’s work.
From where I sit, America can
be mighty grateful for her five mil-
lion farmers ... for their produc-
tivity, hard work, and temperate
living—of which Will’s moderate
glass of beer is proof 1
