Aiken Says Chronicle Is Welcome At Front From far away North Africa, on one of the buttfo fronts of the global war, comes a letter to The Chronicle from a former Camden boy. now wearing the uniform of Uncle Ham. The letter la from Hgt. Carl H. Aiken, who la In the thick of tho Tunlsean campaign. Sergeant Aiken suys In hie letter. "Your paper Is being sent to me hero In North Africa. I am a aoldler who baa lived around and In Camden for a number of years. "We read each copy of the paper several times and find It Quite Interesting. "We" means the whole company, and we are ready for the next issue. "Cheers to tho citizens of Camden for their war efforts. I have a brother who now resides In Camden. That made it possible for me to receive tho news direct from the home front, thanks to him, and thanks to you. I hope I am not boring and I will be very grateful to you If you have room In your paper for this letter. Thanks and hello to everyone. Carry on there and we will carry on here." Association Points To Postwar Economy Chicago. 111.-?A plan whereby business and industry can tako steps now to Insure rapid conversion to peacetime operations Immediately after the war was outlined recently by DeWltt Ktneiv, president of the National Small Business Men's Association, la a statement to the association's membership. Said Mr. Finery: "When the shootinn stops, our most important problem will be jobs, millions of Jobs. If provisions are made now to permit business men to go ahead on their own initiative, those jobs can and will be available. It is vitally important that some plan be established now for postwar reconversion and working capital reserves, otherwise millions of postwar jobs would have to wait weeks, months or years while Washington unwinds red tape." The plan suggested by Mr. Emery entails authorization by Congress of a tax-free reserve?that is, tax-free as a part of tho cost of doing business the same as a reserve for depreciation?equal to three per cent of annual sales up to an annual volume of one million dollars, the percentage on sales over a million being scaled down gradually to a minimum of one pt-rCent or one-half of one per cent. This plan," said Mr. Emery, "would provide a post-war reserve without depriving the U. S. Treasury of revenue now when it needs it most. It would accomplish its purpose without imposing carrying charges and without permitting any company to cet. rich. It is a simple, workable plan. The full amount of tho reserve would he invested in a special issue of non-interest bearing, non-negotiable government bonds. These bonds would become interest-bearing and negotiable at a stated date, 30 to 60 days after tho end of tho war." In commenting on the need for establishing post-war reserves now, Mr. Emery pointed out that in most cases, after refunds have been made .under renegotiation and normal and "excess profits taxes have been paid, it is impossible for even the most prudent management to provide t.he reserve necessary for post-war operation. An official of one of the large airplane manufacturing companies, he stated, recently indicated that the reservo his company now has would enable them to meet their payroll for just two weeks after tho war. "It Is quite clear." said Mr. Emery, "that without cash on hand to meet payroll and other costs, companies ! will not be able to go ahead on their I own Initiative, but will have to wait I on a settlement of some kind from Washington before they can turn a hand. No one knows how long that would take or what kind of settlement he would get in the end. In a great many cases folfowlng World War 1, termination settlements were not made for five or 10 years. In fact, one case was not settled until just a few weeks ago?25 years later! "In contrast to this picture of delay and unceratlnty. provisions made now to make funds for reconversion available immediately after the war would result in an Instantaneous dynamic, expanding economy In which there would be little delay In absorbing Into good jobs the millions of men returning to civilian life from thoir duties in the Armed Services." Life insurance policyholders' funds have extended financing aid through mortgage purchases, to owners of farm and city property in the amount of 3 billion dollars in the past 4 years. Soil Conservation News ' (By V. T. MulUn ^1 w in L. Jones of Liberty Hill, speaks highly of crotalnria aa a soilhuildlng crop and land eondltlouer. Mr, Jones' experience tblH year with cotton on land following a good growth of Spoctabulia crotolarla definitely hIiowh a denser growth and better fruiting qualities than cotton on similar land where no crotolarla was grown. The organic matter turned into thia aoU has made it more porua, friable and much oaaler to cultivate than before, when It wan compact and very plastic. Orotolaria appears to bo one of the best adapted soilconserving legumes around which an effectivo rotation for sandy land of the Coastal plain may be built. W. B. Fort, of the Heaver Creek section, hn? a good seed patch of serlcea lespedeza. This plot was seeded several years ago to serlcea und is well adapted to soil of this type. Yields usually range from 200 to 400 pounds of Beed per acre. Due to the extensive root system of this plant it has proven very effective as an erosion control plant. Terrace lines were run this week on Jim Sweet's farm near lloykin. Mr. Sweet plans to build his terraces with a tractor and disc tiller and plant this field in soybeans to be hogged off.
