And healthy home fronts in the United Nations are essential to win the war. The strategy in global war is not solely a military question. In total war between great nations, jthe home front is, in many ways, | as important as the military front. | Wars can be lost or won on the| home front. Germany lost the last war by exhaustion and col- candles. Each member placed a lighted jcandle on the altar to represent her work that would shine dur- ing the year.

A program of importance has been planned and every father is asked to attend. Isadore Weintraub, district of- ficial, will act as chairman. CAPTAIN NEWCOME ’ GIVEN DUTY HERE Captain James A.

' vegetable and dairy regions where FARMERS FACE PROBLEM NATION NEEDS FOOD LABOR SUPPLY SHORT The problem of the farmer has become that of the,nation,, Despite higher prices for farp, raducts, the agriculturist is short of labor, and machinery ,but, confronted with a wartime demand. for in- creased production. The labor situation is aggravat- ed by high industrial wages which induce-workers to leave the farm. Others are drafted into ac- tive service. Even the Govern- ment expects more than one mil- lion workers to leave the farms in 1943. Already production in some } lines, notably dairy products, is being reduced by the lack of la- dor. } The problem is not altogether! due to the war. By the census of! 1940, there were 6,096,799 farms in the United States. Of these, two million, or about one-third, pro-| duced only three per cent. of the nation’s food. Another one mil-j lion farmers in the next higher | income group contributed very lit-j tle to the country’s food supply. It has been known for years that, in some regions, in South- eastern United States, the Ozarks} and in a, few other sections, farm families were trying to eke out a living on.farms too small, or on land too poor, to provide more than the barest subsistence. The plan now under considera- tion is for the. War Manpower Commission and the U. S. Employ- ment Service to recruit volunteer | farm workers, who now barely! manage to live, to be trained un- der government supervision and placed in camps to serve citrus, i labor is scarce.
