LILIENTHAL SEES NEW FARM LIFE Tells Convention Electricity Will Aid in Restoring Rural Balance. By the Associated Press. NASHVILLE, Tenn, December 13.—The “big city jitters” that drew men and wealth from the farms has “about run its course,” David E. Lilienthal, power director of the Ten- nessee Valley Authority, said last night, and now the effort is to restore the balance between rural and in- dustrial life. He told the sixteenth annual con- vention of the American Farm Bu- reau Federation that “no single thing” would contribute more toward “restoring the American farm and American farm life to its proper and rightful place than to bring electricity to every one of the farms of the country.” “I propose this to you as a goal: That by 1945 50 per cent of the farms of the United States should have the benefits of electricity.” Calls T. V. A. a Test. The Tennessee Valley Authority project, Lilienthal said, provides a “testing ground where the Nation may work out many of the problems which must be faced if farm elec- trification is to go forward.” | He told of the authority’s activi- ties at Corinth, Miss., where existing | rates were cut about to half, Lilien- thal pointed out, and the farmer paid | the same rate as the man living in | town. | “The conclusion seems to be ines- | capable,” he said, “that here is a job) which can be made effective during | your lifetime and mine only with the aid of the National Government in | co-operation with all public and pri- vate farm agencies.” M. L. Wilson Speaks. ‘M. L. Wilson, Assistant Secretary of Agriculture, told the convention that crop adjustment under the agricultural adjustment act “must work toward the ideal of providing no penalty of | any kind for that farmer who is ob- | serving the principles of balanced | farming.” The federation adopted resolutions yesterday urging that “gold certifi- cates be issued against the profit ac- cruing to the Government in the re- wvaluation of gold.” President Roose- velt was asked “to make full use of the powers granted him to raise the price of gold to the limits prescribed by Congress.” This action, the rec- ommendations set out, would raisc commodity prices. The federation set out “our belief in and our support of the agricultural | adjustment act.” A. A. A. Amendment Urged. An amendment to the agricultural adjustment act providing for the “ef- fective administration” of licensing power over processors and distributors was sought, along with a change to distribute “more equitably and fairly” the cost of commodity adjustment programs. Approval of reciprocal trade treaties was expressed and & request was ad- | vanced “for farme representation on | the commission negotiating trade treaties or agreements affecting agri- | culture.” A continuation of emergency farm financing was advocated, and *‘protec- tion as to prevent the unnecessary sacrifice, threugh fereclosure, of farm pmpmy during periods of depres- Farm -Credit Administration was asked to provide “ways and means” for “financing co-operative electric light and power organizations at low interest ratee.” e — CITY NEWS IN BRIEF. ‘TODAY. ‘Turkey dinner, bexedt Christ Luth- eran Church, Sixteenth and Gallatin | streets, 5 to 7:30 pvm.

Mrs. Hazel McClung, wife of a Takotna mining man; Pilot Oscar Winchell and two mine operators, David Standberg and Weine Puntallo, bad taken off from McGrath on their way to Anchorage. Mrs. McClung in- tended to go to Juneau from here. Their propeller chewed into a biting blizzard of sleet and snow, which coated the wings until the ship sagged wearily and then came down in an uninhabited region 150 miles from here in 30 inches of snow. Equipped with wheels, the plane could not rise. Find Beans and Rice. ‘Taking a robe and light emergency rations from the plane the four beat a path through the snow to an old cabin. Fortune favored them, for they found the tattered fragments of some blankets and a few dried beans and some rice abandoned by a prospector.
