Moreover, Red China is ill-prepared for a major war. Her population is hungry, poorly housed and clothed; her industry is not yet capable of supporting a mod ern war. Red China has pro duced a nuclear explosion, but as yet she has no adequate de livery system.” If, as the General points out, we can win the war, why aren’t we doing so? Because, says Fellers, “the Washington-dictated war ob jective remains ‘restrained har- rassment’ until the enemy ag rees to unconditional surrender discussions. This objective could be achieved, according to Air Force Chief of Staff McConnell ‘virtually overnight.’ All that is necessary is to lift present resti*ictions on air and sea pow er.

Marlene Among, A1 Kauwe, Rouak IIKO AND THE SHARK PRESCRIPTION FOR VICTORY From Oakland, California the drab troop ships sail for Viet Nam. Thousands upon thous ands of boys in uniform file on board to await their joumney. After weeks at sea, they will arrive in Viet Nam to fight the war. Those who have boys already in Viet Nam read the newspa pers apprehensively. Calendars in millions of homes are mark ed off each day just as they are in Southeast Asia. Letters writ ten in a jungle are eagerly op ened, and read over and over again. So it was during World Wars I and II: The fighting, the waiting, the hoping. But this time, something is different. There are no “victory” bill boards now. There is not even much hope that we’ll ever win the war. Those whose sons and husbands are in Viet Nam are not quite sure what we’re fight ing for. And it is terribly hard to fight unless one fights to win. Is it really impossible to hope for victory in Viet Nam? A recent Manion Forum guests answers that question with an emphatic “no!” Brigadier Gen eral Bonner Fellers said this over the Forum program: “It is my deep and sincere conviction that the war in Viet Nam can and should be ended quickly on favorable terms. Here is the pattern to superim pose on North Viet Nam: “Warn military target areas —mostly supply centers— that total destruction will soon be inevitable. Urge populations in these military target areas to evacuate to designated tropical sanctuaries. Then destroy every military target. Blocade the coast line. Deny munitions and weapons to the enemy: the end will come quickly and before Red China could intervene.” What of the danger of Red China’s entering the war?

Baker J. Dave Caldwell Pinckney N. Abrams Louis C. Floyd Thomas H. Pope R. Aubrey Harley Your County Agent has been traveling again. This time our travels took us to Wilson dam on the mighty Tennessee river at Sheffield, Alabama. Here we studied the fertilizer making facilities of the Tennessee Val ley Authority (TVA). Then we saw on numerous farms how improved soil fertility has boosted crops and forage yields. TVA is not primarily a fer tilizer industry. Their fertilizer work is aimed at the develop ment of new and more effective fertilizer materials, mainly nitrogen and phosphorus. Once developed, the new fertilizers are tried out on cooperating farms, called Unit Test Demon stration Farms. Most states through their Land-Grant Uni versity have cooperative agree ments with TVA to supervise the program. Here in Newberry county we have eight farmers enrolled. More about this later. As we’ve already said, TVA is not primarily a fertilizer in dustry. All fertilizer processes developed by TVA are available to the commercial fertilizer in dustry. The present trend to ward use of high anaylsis fer tilizers was started by farmers using TVA fertilizers. Results of Applied Know How The Unit Test demonstration farmswe visited bore evidence of improved soil fertility thru wise fertilizer use. A cooperat ing farmer agrees to soil tests each year to follow recommend ed lime and fertilizer prac tices. TVA fertilizers are fur nished on a cost basis. No free fertilizer is involved. On most of the farms we visited 100-bushel-per-acre corn is now an accepted practice. On the Pickens Farm in Lawrence county, Alabama, we learned how cotton yields have climbed close to the two-bale per acre level simply thru improved soil fertility. Pasture and other for age crops have also responded to fertilizer use on most of the farms. In Henderson county, Tenn. we heard how a county - wide development program of in creased soil fertility had more than doubled yields of corn, cotton and soybeans in a ten- 1 year period. Our trip to visit and study the unit' test demonstration program at TVA was due to our present participation in this program. Eight Newberry county farmers were enrolled this year for the five-year pro gram. On these farms we hope to remove the barrier of soil fertility as a. limiting factor to crop production. Next time you’re up in the Trinity com munity, ride by the farm of John W. Martin. John is one of our demonstration farmers. The good field of corn right by the road already shows proof it pays to fertilize according to soil tests. We’ll be telling a- bout our other demonstration farmers at a later date. Grain Harvest Time Oats, barley and wheat look as if they will make good yields this year. That is, if we can get them harvested without more heavy rainfall such as we had last week. Check those combines. Make certain you’re not losing too much grain either from im proper reel speed or too much air through the combine. Too close cylinder clearance causes excessive cracking of “ grain which will surely lower its val ue both for feed and market. Keep insects out of stored grain. It ’s easier to prevent in sect infestation in stored grain than to get rid of a heavy in sect infestation. Spray bins or other storage facilities thor oughly before putting in grain. Clean out old grain before put ting in new. Premium grade Malathion sprayed in the grain as it goes into storage does a good job of keeping out in sects. Check Cotton Stands Cotton continues dying from diseases due to unfavorable J weather. Shallow cultivation as soon as fields are dry enough will help check this situation. Should most of the stand be lost, consider planting soy beans. Be sure to have the ASC office check your cotton before plowing up to plant to beans. Get most of your soybean crop planted by mid-June, if pos sible. Building Permits City building permits, total ing $13,600 were issued last week to: Pete Driggers, 1525 Caldwell street; Charles E.
