At that time the number of policemen was about 8,000, and, as the Sun pointed out, it was unfair and unjust to attack them i as a body because a few never missed a chance to place their own interests above | -hese-of ihe publie.

Mr. Wickard points out that military and Lend-Lease needs have increased from | thirteen to twenty-five per cent. of our to- tal food production during the past year, He urges farmers to redouble their efforts ds “a patriotic duty” and while not promising “any complete solution” to the, fafm, labor problem, pledges himself to do everything possible to alleviate the situation and give the farmers as much help as possible. The secretary pointed out that during 1948, the conversion of the nation‘s farms | to war production must be completed, with production concentrated on essential crops and products at the expense of the non-es sential ones. farmers to produce on their own farms suf- ficient foodstuffs to feed themselves, in- stead of depending on other sections of the country.
