County Agricultural Mobilizafion
Group Ask Farmers About Problems
C. A. Ward, Chairman of the
Clarke County Agricultual Mobil
ization Committee, announce that
a local meeeting is being arranged
as part of a national Family Farm
Policy Review, through which the
Department of Agriculture is
seeking to obtain practical sug
gestions for improving services to
family farms. This meeting will
be held Saturday, September 1 at
9:00 A. M. in the Clarke County
Courthouse,
Mr. Ward points out that many
American farms are not at pre
sent using really up to date, im
proved methods of farming .Slow,
tedious hand labor still prevails
in many places where modern
machinery and equipment could
lighten the load and bring higher
returns. There are still many areas
of marginal land which could be
improved and returned to greater
productivity through proper me:
todis of rehabilitation and con
servation. These and many similar
problems will be considered in
local discussions relating to the
current review of fram programs
and policies. :
The purpose of the Family Farm
Policy Review, according to Mr.
Ward is to find any feasible met
hods by which family farmers,
who make up the bulk of our farm
population, can be helped to help
themselves. “Especially import
ant,” says Mr. Ward, “is the aim
News From The
Veteran Corner
Here are authoritative answers
from the Veterans Administration
to four questions of interest to
former servicemen:
Q. I have just been discharged
from service, and I plan to file
an application with VA for disabil
ity compensation. Is there any time
limit for filing?
A. No, there is no time limit or
deadline for filing compensation
claims. However, if you apply
within one year from the date of
discharge, and VA approves your
claim, payments will be made re
troactive to your discharge date.
But if you wait more than one
year, the effective date on which
payments may begin will be the
date of application,
Q. T expect to complete Public
Law 16 vocational training some
time next year. After that, I under
stand I will have one year's GI
Bill entitlement coming to me. Can
I use that year for additional
training under the GI Bill, even
tough the cut-off date for train
ing has passed?
A. Yes, provided you apply for
the GI Bill training sometime be
fore you complete your Public
Law 16 training. ;
Q. What kind of priority does ark
emergancy case, not service-con
nected, get in obtaining admission
to a VA hospital?
A. Emergency cases are given
top priority, regardless of service
connection.
Q. I received a chcek for the
second dividened on my NSLI
term policy, which, by the way,
expired in 1949 and I renewed for
an additional five-year term
period. But I don’t think the
check is large enough. What should
I do? ‘
A. You snould wait, for you pro=-
I bly will receive a second check.
You held two policies during the
three-year period covered by the
dividened, and you should receive
a separate check for each policy
based on the anniversary date of
each policy. If you fail to receive
a second check in due time, write
to the VA District Office that
handles your insurance. Don’t
write VA in Washington, D. C.
(Veterans living in Georgia who
wish further information about
their benefits should write the VA
Regional Office at 105 Pryor
Street, N. E., Atlanta 3, Ga.)

George, were not immediately
available for comment.
Dixon, emphasizing that he
spoke only for himself, said:
“Well, I see that we are accused
of demaming both law enforce
ment officials and admitted law
breakers. That seems to put it all
in a very neat package.”
C. G. Buchanan, PAG president
and contractor specializing as
trouble shooter on high tension
power lines, speaking for PAG,
said:
Buchanan Statement
“The Peoples Action Group feels
that a gross miscarriage of justice
has been committed. We stand
back of the indicted men and will
assist them with every means that
we have available.
“We will not yield to threats or
intimidation. This fight hasn’t
even started.”
Buchnan said that hundreds of
people came to him last night to
join PAG, saying that while they
approved of PAG aims they just
hadn’t bothered before to become
associated with it actively.
PAG was formed early this year
after the Kefauver Crime Investi
gating Committee hearings in New
Orleans focused public attention
on gambling in the state.
Press Backing
Backed by the American Press,
PAG waged a vigorous campaign.
Gambling quickly shut down, then
reopened partially but is now
tightly closed in the Parish.
The PAG adopted methods of
the World War II French under
ground. Teams of one, two or
three men visited places where
they suspected there was gambling
and gathered information. :
Attorney James Dewey O’Brien,
temperary chairman of a secret
group of five directing the investi
gation, said at that time, “No one
person ever knew the names of
more than two other persons
working in his area. In that way
of helping those who are not now
producing with maximum ef
ficiency either because of lack of
know how or lack of means, fin
ancial or otherwise. “Increased pro
duction” he asserts, “can mean in
creased income for many farm
families whose incomes are still
inadequate, It can mean better op
portunities for rural children,
modern conveniences in more
farm hones, fuller use of indivi
dual talents and a more satisfying
life for farm families. Increased
argicultural production is also im
portant to the welfare of the na
tion as a whole, and this will con
tinue to be true in the future as
our population increases.
Present federal farm programs
will be discussed at the local
meeting with a view of obtaining
recommendations for improving
and services for farmers. Mr.
Ward urges all farm families
farm organizations, and non
farm grounps and others in
terested in rural life to take part
in the discussions, so that a good
cross section of opinion can be
obtained. Copies of a pamphlet en
titled, “The Family Farm’s Fu
ture,” further explaining the pur
poses of the Family Farm Policy
Review and the part that local
people can take in it, can be ob
tained from the Clarke County
Agricultural Mobilization Cora
mittee in the Courthouse.
we had almost no leaks.”
Two hundred of PAG’s 3,000
members participated in the un
dercover work.
The investigation resulted in 100
specific charges against 33 men.
The 33 men pleaded guilty in dis
trict court and were fined and
given suspended jail terms,
Williams, Smith and Miller were
three of the 33 men who pleaded
guilty to the PAG charges.
THROUGH RED EYES
DES MOINES — (AP) — In the
Senate recently, Sen. Benton (D.-
Conn.) reading excerpts from a
new Soviet encyclopedia, quoted
this item about fowa.
“State in the middle west of the
United States ... Large capitalist
farms provide the basic produc
tion. All farmers are in great debt
to the banks, and farmers’ debts,
even in the case of full owners,
are more than 50 per cent of the
value of the farms.”

GODFREY ON TV
BERLIN —(AP)— Arthur God
frey, who is a pretty big man in it
himself, says that, except .for
sports, most television programs in
the United States are no good.
“Pee-ew,” said Godfrey of tele
vision programs in a radio inter
view broadcast here during his re
cent European visit.
The versatile Arthur, who han
dles his several radio and televis
ion programs like a juggler, said
the only things he could commend
on American television were the
sports casts.
