Two boxers outer the ring. Well matched, even in
height and weight. Their age is the same. They come
even from the same neighborhood and the same stable.
They start sparring. They tangle. They slug. Early it
is apparent that these evenly-matched boys are un-
equal in one thing stamina. One can take it; one call
not. "I like the boy in green tights. He has the fighting
heart."
Whether that fourth dimension of boxing ability is
called "fighting heart," stamina, guts, the ability to
take it-everyone recognizes an "indefinable quality"
in pugilists-the ability to take punishment- natural
gift to come from behind and win.
Not only in winning boxers but in winning race-
horses, in all sports animals, this same indispensable
quality is discernible. In fact, without it, contestants
have no place in the sports world. Let no boy start a
ring career without the fighting heart. Let no colt
look toward the Derby, if he can not come from behind
to win.
It is no fanciful analogy as between boxers and
fighting nations. Nations, like pugilists, have the fight-
ing heart, or they don't. Nationis have stamina, or they
buckle under adversity. Italy's lack of stamina for
war has become a vaudevillian's joke. China's superb
fighting zest has excited admiration of all peoples.
Russia's stubborn refusal to bow its head before a con-
queror is well known. France's whimpering capitula-
tion to the vandal brought disillusionment to millions.
Nations win by stamina-like boxers. They must face
adversity, and against odds, repel and conquer, or
perish.
Hitler, of course, has acted upon the assumption that
the United States is without the fighting heart. In-
deed Hitler has taken the position that democracy
spells decadence, and arguing from this premise,
Hitler declares that since the United States is a great
democracy, it is decadent and incapable of defending
its own interests. It is true, perhaps, that all democ-
racies have weaknesses which can be easily exploited
by an outside enemy. Hitler proved this preeninently
with the fall of France. France's fall was an inside
job. Hitler was even bold enough to organize the fifth
colnumn in Russia, though it failed ignominiously.
Democracies are tolerant, often complacent, good
natured and slow to action, and these are not qualities

that make for a martial nation. It is true that Hitler
has exploited such weaknesses and has been successful
at times in this exploitation.
But Hitler has failed to read America rightly. Much
of the good nature of Americans has arisen out of the
kind of life they live. Placed in a land of great natural
wealth, in a climate that enables men to spend energy
lavishly, Americans have enjoyed a high standard of
living coupled with freedom, and as a result they have
enjoyed the real act of living. But Americans haven't
subdued a stubborn environment for two centuries for
nothing. It hasn't been all beer and skittles, Mr. Hitler.
It has been a tough struggle and the pioneering Ameri-
can spirit is notable for its hardness as well as for its
generosity, and it is this hardness coupled with good
nature which will win for the United States.
Quite soon the United States may expect to see a
new propaganda drive for peace emanating from
Berlin. When this arrives. a great crisis will be
reached in our national affairs and we will have an
acid test of our stamina as a nation in making a
decision to go forward rather than backward.
That decision. we are sure, will be a positive de-
cision in favor of subduing a ruthless marauder and
gangster who has brought so much suffering and
bloodshed to the world. There will follow months of
difficult fighting, and the United States will need all
the tenacity it can muster to hang on until there is
some redress of balance between the armaments of the
democracies and the totalitarian countries. The United
States will win by the power of will and not by planes,
tanks, artillery and battleships. In truth, war is but
a fulfillment of a great nation's will. Determination
is more important than arms. This has been proved
over and over again in our own history. Valley Forge
should be remembered when it was only by a heroic
elevation of the human spirit through will power that
the Colonies came through at all.
It may well be that our destiny for several genera-
tions will lie in the field of arms. It may well be that
North America will have to become a gigantic fortress
to repel the anti-democratic forces of the world. But
this we must do for ourselves and for those who are to
come after, and this we will do if we are true to the
spirit and tradition of our fathers.

J 1 ftANPOWER is, at least as essential
as aluminuln, steel, rubber, or
copper. Substitutes can be found
for many basic iaterials, but human la
bIr is the one element for which there is
no substitute, without which all the raw
materials and machines in the world are
useless. Unless methods are devised to
conserve and effectiely allocate this most
precious of all tile factors of production,
it may be that manpower will eventually
prove to be the final and unbreakable
bottleneck in the race to out-prodice our
enemies. The way in which the manpower
this nation possesses is utilized wfil de-
termine the success or failure of the war
effort."
Thus expatiated the periodica] called
"The Labor Market," published by the
Social Security Board of the United
States. No one can gainsay this state
ment, and it places labor in the right pem-
spective in this great world crisis. This
important periodical goes on to analyze
the labor market and points out thet Ei
January, 1942, nearly 7,000,000 workers
were engaged in activities necssary for
the prosecution of the war. It goes on
with a remarkable statement that by
June that is six months later-thils fig-
ure had jumped five and a half million to
a grand total of 12 mallion men at work
producing war munitions. Then forecast
is made indicating that by the end of this
year__December, 1942 another five fil-
lion men will be added to reach the total
of 17½2 million. Then this periodical fore-
sees that by December. 1943, one-
about
sixth of the population will be directly
engaged in war work; that is. 20 million
men. These men have to come from some
place. They cannot be extracted out of
thin air, and ill many instances they have
been, up to now, lifted out of productive
industries outside of farm workers. Al-
ready, inroads are being made on farm
workers. So great an industrial country as
the United States cannot lift 20 million
men and allocate them to war work with-
out feeling it in other branches of ac-
tivity.
WASTE DECRIED
This periodical goes on to say, "Our
production goals require a tremendous
expansion of the war industry labor force
at a time when shortages of skilled man-
power have already given rise to wasteful
and disruptive labor recruitment prac
tices,."
Perhaps this rather cryptic statement
refers to the eagerness and zeal with
which the Selective Service has taken
man, many of them of fine skill, and put
them in the armed forces. This was nat-
u-ally to be expected under the stress of
the hour when it was absolutely necessary
to build a great army for the protection
of our resources and lives. But the phrase.
"shortage of skilled manpower," raises
the question, will the United States actu-
ally run into bottlenecks of labor as seri-
ous and as difficult as the bottlenecks of
production in the early stages of our de-
fense effort? "Labor Market" places the

total labor force for the United States in
1941, including armed forces, at 55400,-
000; in 1942 at 58,700,000; in 1943, 62,-
300,000.
This periodical goes on to point out the
new sources and new methods fron, which
the additional workers must be taken:
'These vast and complex shifts of work-
er5 can be achieved only by the fullest
utilzation of the manpower resources of
the nation. Women will hove to be drawn
ilto the labor force to an extent never
before achieved. Skills of Negroes and
other minority groups will have to be
used to the full. Large-scale migrations
and shifts of the population have to be
effectively guided; frictional losses due
to these adjustments will have to be kept
to a mninimum by well-planned programs
utilizing all of the capacities of the work
force of each locality where ,arwork is
important. Contracts and new plants will
have to be located in areas of labor sur-
pluses or wherever curtailment will re
suit in large-scale layoffs."
MALADJUSTED EMPLOYMENT
All of this, of course, adds up to a defi
nite picture and probably an accurate one.
On the other hand and here is the nub of
our article it is possible that in forecast-
ing, the statisticians of the Social Securi
ty Board and the U.S. Employment Serv-
ice may not have taken in all the factors
or visualized the scene in its entirety.
For instance, in this very number, that is
June, 1942, of "Labor Market," the statis-
ticians of the Social Security Board admit
that up to now there has beenno real
shortage in constriction workers. This is
the statement: "Though stringencies, par-
ticularly of skilled craftsmen, were rc-
ported in certain areas. there was no gen
eral shortage of construction workers.
Construction labor stringencies would be
greater at the present time but for two
factors. First, the growing shortage of
building materials has. in some localities.
retarded the attaimaent of mnaxium con-
struction activity. Secondly, war construc-
tion projects have recruited labor from
other industries and from agriculture,
particularly iT the othern states."
In this same number, this periodical
points out that, although the number of
unemployed construction workers in New
York City declined from 60,000 to 48,000
between April and May, no satisfactory
solution has been devised for the city's
unemployment problem.
Quite recently, Donald M. Nelson, War
Production chief, received a warning from
his labor advisory commnittee that a slow-
down or shutdown of as many as 1,000
war plants would occur during the next
two months because of the shortage of
war mtorials. At the same time an Army
official, according to a writer in the
Washington Post, estimated that the num-
ber of plants which were likely to be
slowed down would reach a total of 1,200.
Here is an example of not only a malad-
justment, dislocation and miscarriage of
planning, but threatened unemployment
in the midst of an all nation effort to pro-
duce.
The labor group cooperating with the
War Production Board asked Mr. Nelson
to set up a unit to provide complete in-
formation on lay-offs; that labor be given
advance inernmation on lay-offs; that high
priority demands for materials be brought
into line; that every effort be made to in-
crease the production of scarce metals.
LABOR St RPLUTS HERE AND THERE
New York Cit- is not the only city
where there is unem.ployment. Other ities
of the United States show unemployment.
in fact, there are more cities with partial
unemploymlent than there are cities with
full employment at this time. There seems
to be just as much statistical evidence
that there will be no labor shortage as
there is to show that labor shortages ire
imminent.
II
In no place in the analyses of the stat-
isticians of the Social Security Board is
there an indication that they have taken
into consideration the pattern of meek-
anization which runs through all of our
industrial efforts as a nation. The ElEC-
TRICALWORKERS' JOURINAL has repeated-
ly pointed out that the elimination of
men by machines has been a habit in this
country since 1870. It has been apparent
that this tendency has betm accentuated
for a generation and surely one of the
reasons for the breakdown of our eton-
omy in 11290was the elimination of men
by machines. Technological uneimploy-
meat was a phrase loudly and persistent-
ly voiced during the depression of the
'30's. It is apparent that this habit in in-
dustry of mechanizaton has not been dis-
continued but has been accentuated dur-
ing the war effort. New war plants have
done everything in their power to speed
production and they have utilized mass-
production methods wholesale and have
applied the newest methods of organiza-
tion in science to cut the labor force
down and increase the power of the ma-

This is second i a series of articles oI
the tetph.oe monopolY.
OPULAR usage is such that the
phrases "private enterprise," "free
P enterprise" and "free competition"
are commonly considered to mean ap-
proximately the same thing. The phrases
are often used interchangeably, as syno-
nyms for one another.
This too-common laxity of expression,
reflecting as it does a process of loose
thinking, is unfortunate. It plays into
the hands of the politicallonfusionists,
for actually the phrases do not mean the
same thing.
Their differing shades of meaning -
even to the point where one constiutes a
direct contradiction of another may be
aptly illustrated by considering the open-
ing sentence of the A. T. & T.'s annual
report for 1941. There the management
of A. T. & T. presents what it chooses to
call an accounting of its stewardship
. . . for the information . . [of) the
entire American people who have en-
trusted to private enterprise the re-
sponsibility for carrying on this essential
service." Note the term private enter-
prise. It is factually descriptive of A. T.
& T. But if the words free competition
were substituted for private enterprise,
the result would be woefully false. For
the A. T. & T. is a monopoly. As such it
represents the negation of free comn-
petition.
The distinction is fundamental. Though
private enterprise and monopoly each has
its separate advantages, even from a
social point of view, a profit system based
upon free enterprise is essentially dif-
ferent from one based upon private
monopoly. In failing to comprehend this
difference clearly and to act accordingly,
the American people have failed to make
themselves the beneficiaries of monopoly.
BORING FROM WITHIN
Instead, they have allowed themselves
to become its victims. The economies, ef-
ficiencies and stability which ordinarily
are the justifications of monopoly are ap-
propriated by the private monopolists.
Their power becomes an instrument for
,mdermining the remaining competitive
enterprises. But worst of all, monopoly
enables an institution to grow strong by
draining to itself the strength of others,
and its self-interest is in the long run, by
its very nature, in conflict with the public
interest as measured by the comlmon wei-
fare. The ultimate cost of the continued
toleraIce of so iacongruous creatu'e
a forded by government through the patent
and condition may be democracy itself,
with the loss of those invaluable spiritual
marks of individual human dignity. as
well as the unequalled material benefits
which democracy has produced even in its
present state of imperfection.
"Ah, BUT " counters the public rela-
tions .an eagerly reaching into the R sec-
tion of his argument kit. "you forget that
the Bell System is subject to regulation"
And so it is. But the matter of regula-
tion has not been forgotten. On the
contrary, it is recognized as meriting con-
sideration. And it shall receive considers-

tion subsequently. Before that subject is
explored, however, and in order that it
may be better understood when it is ex-
plored, the methods by which the Bell
System atrained its dominating position
under the concentrated control of A. T.
& T. will be briefly examined.
HOW MONOPOLY WAS BORN
In a previous article it was shown that
the A. T. & T. is the world's largest
private monopoly with assets hundreds
of millions of dollars in excess of those
of such industrial giants as the General
Motors Company, the U. S. Steel Corpora
tion and the Standard Oil Company of
New Jersey combined, and that its eco-
nomic and political influence penetrates
the entire nation through varied and mul-
titudinous channels. It was not simply a
mastery of the art of telephony, however,
which brought the Bell System to its pres-
ent dominating magnitude.
In the beginning there was the Bell
Patent Association. Formed in 1875, it
consisted of Alexander Graham Bell and
two financial backers, Thomas Sanders
and Gardiner G. Hubbard, each of them
holding a one-third interest. The purpose
of the association was to perfect Bell's
telephonic inventions and plrlmote them
commercially. Bell obtained his first pa-
tent in 1876, and a second in 1877. These
two patents constituted the initial instru-
ments of the Bell System monopoly.
Without in any sense belittling inventor
Bell's ingenuity or his contributions to
science, it is significant to note in passing
that the Bell System's original monopo-
listic character was not a fruit of mdi
vidual enterprise as such, but was sub-
stantially a result of the protection af-
laws. It is also appropriate to recall that
as early as 1877 the Western Union Tele-
graph Company's active development of
telephone communicatins under the pa-
tents of Elisha Gray and Thomas A.
Edison was a serious competitive threat
to the Bell System, This circumstance is
another confirmation of the social impetus
upon invention, which d(leiends upon
d
simlultaneous and cumluatilve rsearh anm
discovery by independent individuals and
groups, rather than upon any single ''was-
ter mind." The process of inwention is by
its nature a democratic one.
SQU EECHING COMPETITION-
PART I
Whereas the Bell interests initiated
over 600 infringement suits before the ex-
piration of its patents, the elimination of
Western Union as a competitor was lot
accomplished by this method. Instead,
Western Union and the Bell System en
toted into an agreement whereby Western
Union withdrew from the telephone field
and permitted the Bell companies to use
its telephone patents, and in return the
Bell interests agreed to stay out of the
telegraph business and pay certain royal-
ties to the Western Union. From 1879 to
1896 the royalties paid Western Union
under this agreement approx.mated
$7,000,000.
Thus did the Bell System rid itself of
the only formidable competitive threat to
its exclusive monopoly until its patents
expired. During this period, covering the
years 1877 to 1894, the stockholders had
invested $1f,1358,08. During the same
period they had received dividends total
ing $25,895,811 and, watch closely, even
after the receipt of such generous divi-
dends the stockholders still retained an
equity of over $38,000,000-they still re-
tained more than twice as much as was
invested, in spite of dividends one and
one half times their investment.
This little matter of undistributed
profits becomes of special interest later
when consideration is given to what Mr.
Gifford and his colleagues modestly call
reasonable earnings. Men are creatures of
habit and a knowledge of their habits is
therefore helpful in arriving at an under-
standing of them. But the profit habits
of the beneficiaries of the A. T. & T. alr
so different from those of most men that
their standards of reasonableness vary
substantially from the norm. At present
it is enough to observe that the A. T. & T.
and its predecessors acquired a habit of
exceedingly gonero.s profits at an early
date, and this habit has colored their at-
titude eversince.
SYSTEM CHANGES CITIZENSHIP
In the m.eantime, the New England
Telephone Company had been organized
in 1878 and licensed by the Bell Associa-
tion to operate in New England. In the
salie year the Bell Telephone Com.pany
was organized to exploit the Bell iIP*ven
tions elsewhere. Then, in 1879, there wa,
brought into being the National Bell Tele-
phone Co. to meet the needs of new finan-
ring, to conso idate the existing orgaliza
tions, and to pIrovide additional expansion.
This last company became temporarily
the top company of the system. The ex-
tent to which financial considerations (ot-
weighed technical factors is suggested by

Here is an example of how it ;xl'ks:
In his book entilhd "The Bill Telephone
System," pIblished in 1941, A. T, & T.
Vice President Pag9 not eo ly admiits that
regulation has SOlle shortconmings, he
even offers by way of proof a quotation
from a Brookings~ Institution study stat
ing, in part, thit, "The roeod of pub1ic
utility remgilation generally since 1907 i

impressive, nor yet too dishha)ten-
jig,." Then conlea the thrust. On his own

If there were a prize awarded fir the
subtle intemixture of ..mUg righteous

wouhl be deserving of nomination.
Mr. Page thereafter invokes Mr. (f;if-
ford's satem.ents and the 13ellSyste
policis as evidence that the A. T. & T. is
oronbnitted to "'the best possible sevice
at the least ct consistent with fi..a. wial

conlusio*n that the regulating qnailis
ion.s have the saie objective. Then he
puts a nice quesIboa and, as is hi, ight,

Liogieaflly, it might be asked if he Bell
System is working for exactly the same
ends as the eomlmissions,. why have con-

at the end of the COt...e to ret rni to their
unions and serve the in onImoven.ent.
The trade tnio n mni liate]ly cooerating
are the Electiceal Workers, the G(ai .n.t

and Railway Clerks. Other unions are ex-
peeed tooin I this list. The course will
be a full year course begmnnig in Sep-

EXPENSES PAID
The unios will pay the living expci....
of the students and one-half the tuition.
The other half of the tuition will be
ai sed through friends of the TUi versit.
Inasmuch as tuition is $400, the unho
will pay S200 for each fellowship In
addition it is expected that there will be
available several thou.sanddollars above
the tuition income to augment the value
(if the course.
The Ivohltitiyona aspect of the plan
rests in the fact that no defi nite a,,ouint
of schoolin for the trade union stuments
will be required. Not even a high school
course will he prerequisite but thoei will
be care taken in the selection of the canii

MERICAN enterprise h a scored
again. In the midst of confusion
created by hdearth of critical ma-
terials and in the midst of rapid changes
in the electrical industry, the engineers
of the National Electric Products Cor-
posation, Pittsburgh, have stepped into
the breach with a new type of wiring that
does not employ rubber, tin or any other
critical material, save copper. A favor
able fact-finding report on this new wire
called "Rub R Loss Wire. Type KP," has
been made by the Underwriters' Labora-
tories, Inc. The Electrical Committee has
designated this wire for knob and tube
surface work and non-metallic sheathed
cable surface work. This means that
the traditional standards built up over
a period of a quarter of a century by
the electrical industry can be and will
be maintained in the midst of the con-
fusion and change incurred by the war
effort.
DURABILITY STRESSED
Rub-R-Less Wire, Type KP, is manu-
factured in all sizes and is regarded
as almost equal in strength, flame re-
sistant and moisture resistant qualities
to rubber-overed wire, The new wire is
of high quality and is union made. R. W.
E. Moore, electrical engineer of National
Electric Products Corporation, describes
the histoly of this epoch-making develop-
meat.
"In undetaking this development, the
National Company had at hand the ,,e-
ords of the performance of a large number
of types of insulated conductors in which
rubber or other critical materials were
not used-as, for example. treated paper
insulation, various types of cotton-treated
or saturated insulations, and a number of

FORTUNE fails to reveal how much business men
and business ideals have controlled the production
front.
Wages and Speaking of wages and wvage increases,
Salaries one might take a casual glance at salary
schedules of some of the biggest corpora-
tims. Though these gentlemen are some distance from
breadlines, they still are making sizable gains in their
standard of living. Glance, for instance, at the com-
pensation of officers of the American Telephone and
Telegraph Company. Though the president did not
take alny increase this year on his $210,350 a year.
almost three times as much as the President of the
United States receives, he (lid permit vice presidents
to increase their salaries considerably. One vice presi-
dent got an increase from $26,000 to $45,000. Arn-
other vice president got an increase from $55,000 to
$66,000. This pattern of increase is carried on in
operating companies of the American Telephone and
Telegraph Company.
The salary of the president of the New York Tele-
phone Company jumped from $46,004) to 358.000. That
means all increase slightly beyond the 15 per cent
allowed by the War Labor Board for wage increases.
The salary of the president of the New Jersey Bell
Telephone Company leaped from $50,000 to $60,000.
The salary of the president of the New England Tele-
phone and Telegraph Companyv jumped from $50,000
to $60.000. The operating companies of the Bell svs
tern raised the salaries of the higher officials all along
the line about in equal proportion, that is 10 to 33
per cent increases.
We do not know what standard is used for these
increases but it surely is not a standard revolving
around the cost of living, inasmuch as when a person
receives a certain salary, say $10,000 a year, that
salary can absorb more than the normal increase in
the cost of living. We do not know whether these
gentlemen have increased their efficiency but we
make a guess the increases were granted because the
telephone companies are doing a great business in-
cident to the oau and are receiving larger income.

Face of the World's Crisis, a Manifesto by European
Catholics Sojourning in America." The list of signers
includes such important people as Charles Boyer,
movie actor; Paul Van Zeeland, Belgian statesman;
Philip Gibbs, Lady Gainsborough, British leaders, and
other persons of international note.
The document is conceived in a spirit of vast toler-
ance and understanding. To quote, "The universal
crisis, whereof war is merely the culminating par-
oxysm, represents the most dire threat ever to have
451
menaced a civilization of free men. This threat has
been given a name: Totalitarianism."
The manifesto asks the question, Is democracy the
issue at stake in the struggle? And it answers it:
"If by the word democracy you mean the political
and social life of a community of free men, the answer
must be in the affirmative." Profound criticism of
the economic order is contained in this world-signifi-
cant document. The question is asked, Is the preserva-
tion of capitalism the issue at stake in the struggle?
This document points out that capitalism has been
anarchical by making dominant the function of "free-
doma in economic matters." It also quarrels with cap-
italism because it assumes that material riches should
dominate and because it has subordinated man to pro-
duction.
The document finds that the totalitarian now order
is rooted in a conception of existence and in a spiritual
attitude utterly incompatible with Christian faith and
life. It condemns .Marxian socialism because of its
materialistic concepts.
Significant is the statement, because of the tl'ad-
tienal opposition of the Catholic Church to communism,
the Russian people should be encouraged because a
victory for Russia over lHitler would still leave the
world free to choose the proper way of life. It con-
dehnos anti-Semitism. It believes that there must be
a combination of freedom and interdependence of
peoples. It wants the world organized to maintain
freedom, irrespective of race, creed or color.
New Brands- Labor has not been overjoyed at the
New Prices antics of the Office of Price Admin-
istration. But it should be remnem-
bered that the OPA has had a colossal task, and has
received little or no cooperation from any group. Least
of all from business men, with whom it is supposed,
the OPA has had its greatest success. Farmers have
also stood against control of the price system. Labor
alone stood well toward being the victim of control.
and through control, would have lost the principle of
collective bargaining.
Business men, long accustomed to side-stepping the
law. have worked out one clever little scheme, which
has permitted sneak raises in prices.
The clever device is simply to change brand
names, and brand packages, and to fill these new
cartons with the same goods at higher prices.
The OPA order on prices derived from a given
date, on given brands. But when brands (lid not exist
on that date, they appeal to be exempt from price
control. At any rate, coffee-the same coffee-which
used to sell in green bags, appears in red bags, and
sells two to three cents higher per pound. And the
grocer merely says, "We could not get any more of
the old bags."

THE FRUITS OF THE EARTH
Y kitchen is a busy place these days.
There's a Lurg in the air fronl that
kettle of vegetables or fruit sinn.er-
jug over the fire,. The dishpan is o. th.
stove, full of glass jars being sterilized.
Two of us are working at the sink, wash-
filg and cutting .la.re vetetables. And oln
the shelf jars gleam with the ruby of
beets, the em.erald if beans, the amethyst
of plums, ard the cardinal red of
itoma toes.
We had a victory garden this year. Fol
two o1uhthS we enjoyed the exquisite
pleasure of eating our own fresh-picked
vegetables. Then at the end of suinmer
production came in with a rush. We hlave
been caroling like maud tO keep good fooId
from going to Wvsle.
There is a very solid satisfacti .i ill the
fruits of this harvest. It was a grcoup
velltunre, a too eperative xperincit that
never interfered with the indivdual iii-
tiative. It succeeded beyond all expeeta-
tiens. In addition to the vegetables. we are
bringing in the sheaves of very satisfac
tory human relationships.
Five families in this little suburban
community secured permission to ise
convenient vacant lot. Only one persun ill
the group was an experienced gardener.
Two of the men bla... ed their wives for
"getting ini latt this" and were prn-
foundly skeptical. Obe of the wonten said
she didn't want much ground because she
didn't want to spend much time on it.
Noe of us were boiling with enthusi-
asm, hut iil the ftre of isi ng food costs
the idea of being able to pick our own
vegetables was aftractive enough to over-
come our inertia.
The lot was covered with a vigorous
growth of crabgrass, trumpet uine and
other weeds. Each faMily broke ground in
a strip of approximately, 20 by 50 feet.
Two-foot grass walkways divided the
plots from, each other. We held a meeting
or two to plan produetion. Our one expert
gardlener strongly advised that each famn-
ily should put Tione or two "commnunity
crops" to yield suflicient quantity to sup
ply all five families. While outwardly
agreeing, each of us secretly thought we'l
concentrate on food for aur own needs,
and not expect to get nmuch fromn the oth-
eIa. But results showed that he was tight.
The community crop idea for a group of
this sort is perfectly sound, Every family
had something to distribute. With better
planning it would have been more. Also
we have had a practical demonstration of
the effectiveness of fertilizers and lime.
which were put int by each gardener ac-
cording to his own preference.

quite in character with Mexican tradi-

"free farmer," and especially the child

efficient utilization of the land, and that
the governn/ent had no means of finlan.c-

BADGES OF HONOR
1. B. E. W. emblematic buttons
show nimumh ,number of years of
membership. They were designed
and fabricated at the instance of
the 1941 national convention of the
1. B, E. W. They are identical ex-
cept for the 10, 15 and 25 years'
mem.bership designation. They are
beautiful, of 10 karat gold and
priced ait $2.00. The buttons are a
ti-le smaller in size than the repro-
ductions above,.
and its tract sll,is due pa rty to the aptl
tude of the peasants themselves for co
operative production and partiy to the
efforts of the National Bank of Credio
Ejidah. S. A. which not only finances 'g-
ricultural ilpl'ovements buit acts as an
educational force. We are in receipt or a
recent yearbook of this banhk whichshos
the astonishing reults aceom plished in
the short space sinfee was organized in
1936.
Its first funeti.i.n i. the olgiani.at ion of
the farmers As soon as a town receives
its government land grant, it may b1
organized, foinelg a society I hich is
known as the Sociedad Local d, Credito
Ejidal in other word,. the local coopera-
tive credit society. But this goes farthet

the next agricultual cycle. Credits are
granted to the society, which ill tuin
nke$ learis to individuals,. The haLk
keeps close s,,peivisiori Lo the pulpo.e
that the hlans shall be invested in that
for which they weit granted.
Hundreds of blanch offices of the Iban ..
are scattered throughout Mexico. Thb-
principal work is to fu.rnish technic-a ad-
vice at. the farmers, to supervise produ.
lion as well as credit. in 1936 the bah,
loaned to the ,,iti o than $24
million, hich was invested principall 5
in seed, fertilizer, livestock and implh-
,nLlts. The crops produced in the areas
cultivated by the societies that same veaI
ecre valued at $34 m illion,
and of CtoI-S
thie stock of hinplenwns, animals, the en
ic hn.tnt of the ]ard, were a permlanent
investment which would extend produc
tion in the future.
The following year loans to the amount
oC nearly $83 million were maie. More
arid grants had been made, m.or'e societies
organized, and the Iand they had under
cultivation nearly doubled. The harvest
was estimate'd as woth $90 million
Again inl 1918 the lind under cultiva-
i.. doubled,. but the amou.t. of Io.,,
credit neededd drope to $65 million, ill
-pite of which production mainitainid the

had at this time 173,722 pLIows. 13,055
sowing machines, 18,514 cultivators, 87(
t ractoirs and 280 threshing machines,
They had also accunmlated 235,120 oen.
I 100,29 horses, 96,378 mules, 120.289 don -
keys, 264.417 cattle, 338,170 goats 62,18:
sheep and 67.530 swiMn a sharp contrast
to the figures mentioned previously in
this article as the collective possessi.on
of the poor- alrn -ls under the old Igi mhe.
The bank also encourages the societies
to join together in Societies of Collective
Agricultural Interest, through which co-
opera stores,
tive industries and medical
service are ploviled.

order would be incomplete, weak
and contrary to the law if it did not
take into account both the freedom

other be carried to its extreme.
