• CROP
(Continued from Page 1)
wiiU gather contributions of
corn ifrom farmers of the area
" and bring it to a central farm
during CROP Harvest Week
(November 17. - 23). After
sheflWnig and 'drying the corn
will he stored and auctioned
off in amounts according to the
purchaser’s need. No corn will
be sold under market price.
Time and place of the auction
"will be announced at a later
date.
All services including trans
portation, shelling and drying
are being contributed for the
high purposes of the project.
Solicitors are authorized to
adcept cash contributions -where
that may be the wish ot the do
nor, All funds received in cash
or from the sale O'f the corn
■will be used for the purchase
and shipment of essential goods
to the overseas needy. Thirty
nations now share in the pro
gram.
One of the very attractive
aspects o'f the program is that
it is a “people to people pro
gram” and it seeks to help the
needy not only with gifts of
food but with farm tools, seed,
fertilizer and the like so the
needy may, by their own la
bors, produce food in the fu
ture in field and garden, Wag
ner said.
The program has very little
“overhead” expense because
most of the workers are volun
teers, the foodstuffs are secured
from Government surplus at
very low rates and the distri
bution is made by volunteers
directly to the consumer. It is
estimated that one dollar rai
sed in this program will give
direct to the consumer more
than 300 pounds of essential
‘ foodstuffs.
