have sold the Cleveland ln-
diaris to their most rabid router
for much more than a canceled

And little wonder. After ap-

stretch.
IBut time wipes clean even the
dirtiest slate, and with baseball
still weeks away. the Cleveland
rumble is starting anew. Two
factors account for the Indian
tans’ premature pennant flush:
First Oscar Vitt, who weath—

in June, has been fired. Roger
Peckinpaugh has returned as

should give rise to considerable

a goodreason for it.

find that Gerald’s fielding looks
a lot different in 154 games than
it does in only a few. He has
trouble backing up for fly balls.
He likes to turn over the more
difficult chances to his teammate
in center field, especially if the
latter can cover ground. He is
not a hustler . has never
been noted for his bursting en-
ergy.
All of this—combined with the
fact that the Cleveland clubhouse
lawyers have won a striking vic-
tory in ousting Vitt and will be
riding high-may combine to
make Peckinpaugh and Walker a
couple of unhappy Indian ven-
tures in 1941.

ROGER
Director, National Farm Youth Foundation
FARMERS MUST GET
TOGETHER 1;
With the coming of the New
Year. men and women of the
farm and village are facing prob—
lems that will require unified and
co-ordinated action. Otherwise.
the interests of l
rural communi~
ties will become
subjugated to
those of big cit—
ies which are or—
ganized to bring
pressure to bear
with regard to
national policies.
This city action
is too often det— ' i
rimental to rural K395
areas.
Now that the winter evenings
are with us. we folks in rural
communities have more time to
sit in our rocking chairs and
think. National policies give us a
l
l
i
l
I
i
great deal to think about. How—l3
ever. thought will not take usi
far unless we add action. And
action isn‘t worth much unlessI
it is the combined action of a
number of people with the same
objectives in mind.
Our rural communities have the
farm as their foundation. '1‘th
success or failure of the farm
operation determines the successl
or failure of the community which
rests upon it. ,
Successful farming can become‘
relatively easy to attain through-I
out the United States if the bur-
dens placed upon farmers can
be removed. Agriculture has been
penalized too long. It is timei
that rural America expressed it-
self with authority and determi-i
nation. We folks in rural commu— l
nities must get together. EveryI
day national poliCies are being
chided upon which affect agricul-
ture directly or indirectly. Un-
fortunately. agriculture is not ren—
dering opinions which are suffi-
ciently strong to demand consider-
-ation before these decisions are
made.
i
When less than 50 per cent of ,
farm real estate is really owned 1
by farmers and that only about
half this amount is in the richest
agricultural states, it is easy to see
that the farmers are receiving and
will continue to receive a decreas-
ing proportion of the agricultural l
income. Farm purchasing power is
thus reduced and the income re-
ceived by creditors is increased.
Under the economy of the fam-
ily farm, which predominated in
our early agriculture, expendi-
tures for outside conveniences
were held to a minimum. Today I
canned goods and “boughten”
bread are symbolic of cash ex—
penditure made for the sake of
convenience. Trouble started when
convenience caused farm peoplej
to lay out money for things that-
could be produced on the farm
with a minimum cash expenditure. .
When farmers bought land, build- }
ings and equipment, before they
could reasonably afford them, I
debts began to create interest
loads. Today, as a result of being i
so anxious for commodities to
make farming more convenient, I
the farmers of many communities ,
have been willing to discount fu- ;
ture income 25 per cent to have i
What they wanted when they
wanted it. This has amounted to
maintaining a standard of living
by using up property.
The result has been less of land i
ownership and an unbearable 1
mortgage debt. This drifting into
a morass of further debt can con- I
tinue or be curbed. The choice is I
up to every farmer faced with this i
situation. 1
Some will say the causes differ I
from those just described. For ex-. ,
ample, land speculation is consid- ;
ered a cause of farm difficulties. 1
Of course, there are many such .
things that put farmers in debt. '
However, there is only one basic '
thing: too many farmers failed to
maintain a proper balance be-
tween cash income and cash out-
lay.
0 Those who turn to family sized ;
farms and operate them on a
family basis; with buildings and
equipment designed to do the work I
required on family forms, can re-
turn, themselves.to the ranks. of
the iarm ownch without morlv I
gages.

PACK SLATED MONDAY EVENINGl
Final steps in the organization
of the Lincoln Cub Pack will be
taken next Monday evening at a
meeting of all parents of children
in the Pack which will be held at
7:30 o’clock in the Lincoln school
building.
Between now and the meeting
Monday all dens within the Pack
will hold meetings to choose den
mother., fathers and chiefs, the
Some
dens haVe already done so. Mon-.
day’s meeting will select a Cub-
master and other leaders for the
Lincoln Pack, which is being spon-
lscred by the Lincoln P.T.A.
Parents of boys who will be
members of the Cub Pack have
now completed a special training
course of three classes in which
the fundamentals of Cub Pack
organization, aims and guidance
were taught by Allan Adams,
Tumwater Council executive, and
Dr. Eugene Browning, Tumwater
Council commissioner. The Cub
Packs are handled through the
Boy Scout organization, in fact
are in fact junior Boy Scout
groups composed of boys from 9
to 12. years of age, just under the
minimum Boy Scout age of 12
years:
As outlined in the Cub Pack
manual, the general purposes of
he Cub Pack is roughly as fol-
lows:
“In every neighborhood can be
found a “gang” of nine, ten, and
oleven-year—old boys. There may
be from two to fourteen or fif-
teen boys composing this gang.
They form a natural neighbor-
hood play group and most of
their leisure time will be spent
playing together. They have no
adult. leadership and most of the
plans they originate for their
leisure time activities are mean-
ingless. This is the group that
