THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON WALLAGE GIVES RECOVERY VIEWS Tells English Teachers Next Step Must Be Fostered by Industry. Declaring that agriculture has seen the ultimate in centralized control,| Secretary of Agriculture Wallace yrs-' terday laid upon industry the re- sponsibility of fostering the next steps in economic recovery of the Nation. Mr. Wallace was speaking before the closing luncheon of the National| Council of Teachers of English, after that organization's three-day conven- tion here. “Since the World War,” Mr. Wal- lace declared, “we have been in a terrible mess. We're not out of it yet and I don’t know any reason why we should fool ourselves—that is, since we're not business men. Up to 1923 we were producing farm prod- ucts on 50.000.000 acres in a quantity far above our consumptive needs. These products were bought by for- eign countries—before the war with money we owed them, since the war with money we loaned them, but/ since 1930 not at all “These markets were lost because we have not chosen to accept enough | imports.” Prices Down 40 Per Cent. Even with the aid of the drought, Mr. Wallace said, restricted agri-| cultural production for 1934 was only | 15 per cent below that of 1929, while | agricultural prices were down 40 per cent. In contrast, he said. industrial production is down 42 per cent, while | prices in those products are down only 15 per cent. i Charging that the forms of self-| control worked out by industry dur-| ing past years have been most dam-| aging to the “body politic,” and de- | claring that the necessities of preser-| vation required some form of agri-! eultural control, Mr. Wallace smd\ that agriculture has endured the; “ultimate” in centralized control. “The answer now is increased pro- duction by industry, for only (hmuxh‘ the reopening of factories can we put millions back at work. I Much Trouble Ahead. “There will be much pain and trouble and woe ahead of us, but of | such things fine human spirits are made. I think we may approach rhel future happily and confidently and I trust that the guiding star of the fu- ture will be a growing willingness to develop more and more the intellec- 1 tual and emotional appreciation of the cost of living, one with another. The | trend of modern invention tends to tell a story which means that this generation will lift its eyes higher than those of the past. “The situation is not appalling. either from an American or a world | point of view. I feel, however, that ! the problems of the next 10 years are | going to be extremely difficult, partly because our education of the past has been so completely removed from reality. T suspect most of you have agreed with this belief, as you have | watched college graduates go out into a world for which they never were ! prepared ” | Following Mr. Wallace before the I i convention was Dr. Esther Brunauer of the American Association of Unl-; versity Women, speaking in a sharply critical tone of the Hitler regime in | Germany. Charging the Nazi leader | with gangster rule and lawlessness, | she compared cultural conditions in | Germany today with those of the| Middle Ages | Robert Frost. New England poet, was | the third speaker. Mr. Frost read a number of his poems, including | “Birches,” “Mending Wall, “The Run- | away” and “Stopping by the Woods.” Outstanding addresses of the morn- | ing sessions yesterday were those of | Prof. Donald Davidson of Vanderbilt | University and Prof. Franklyn B. Sny- | der of Northwestern University, SISTERHOOD TO HOLD DONORS’ LUNCHEON Adas Israel Group Will Use Funds to Beautify Syna- gogue Vestry.
