SAFETY VALVE The Other Side Dear Editor: I resent the implications in your article the other week that the farmers of the Back Mountain Re- gion and growers from Wyoming Valley were playing the “old shell game’ when they refused to sign contracts for ripe tomatoes with the Chef Boy-ar-dee Company be- cause it would prevent them from selling any of their crops to other buyers. This was in the nature of a half truth, and, therefore, misleading. Actually the Chef Boy-ar-dee con- tract as presented at the last meet- ing prevented truckers and farmers from growing any other tomatoes than those grown for the packing plant. This would have meant that truckers would have to give up the fine business they have developed | for staked tomatoes grown for years on the Susquehanna river flats and also business other growers have developed for the green-wrapped trade. The farmers were willing to put additional acreage into toma- toes beyond their present acreage to supply the cannery, but they were not willing to sacrifice the market they had already developed on other types of tomatoes. Had Mr. Kaiser of the Chef Boy- ar-dee Company explained this con- tract at the outset I am sure that enough acreage could have been se- cured to take care of the cannery requirements from this area. The whole thing came as a bomb shell at the last meeting and discouraged many of us who had worked hard to interest local growers in putting in additional acreage as a patriotic duty and as an experiment. Respectfully, —Arthur Gay. NEED GLASSES ?

JACKSON ST. | ALL TIpas-ALL MAKES | Phone 25863 © Wilkes-Barre, Pa. so far, many of us back home have been fighting this war from an easy chair. Many of us have bought War Bonds out of extra cash, out of money we didn’t miss too much. We haven’t been really tough with ourselves. But this war is a hard, down-to-reality war. And many of our boys are dying in it. We've got to buy MORE So your government asks you to buy Bonds and more Bonds—to get really ‘tough with yourself. We’re asking you to give up the frills and “extras.” We know how human it is not to make sacrifices until the crisis drives us to it. In England they felt the same way until the bombs started falling. Bombs are such persuasive things. But just as persuasive ought to be the spirit of our brothers, sons, husbands. If you could see : Look at it this way—suppose you had a magic carpet that could take you to Africa and New Guinea. Suppose you could hear the groan of American boys wounded, and American boys dying. ... Say now, how many Bonds would you buy? That kind of war THEY ... are dying. And they will keep on dying until we drown the enemy in an over- whelming torrent of bombs, bullets, guns, . tanks, planes, ships, and shells. That’s why we're asking you, in this one month of April alone, to lend Uncle Sam 13 billions of dollars—by buying War Bonds. 13 billions of extra dollars—over and above any buying that you’d be doing anyway! A lot of money Of course, 13 billion dollars is a lot of money. It’ll take sweat and tears to raise it. Ill mean going without now. But also—it will mean savings now—to buy later. Ill mean giving up everything you can’t square with your conscience, so that we, us, our children, can have a better, more decent place to live in when this war is won. The drive is on So during this month of April, if someone calls on you to ask you to buy War Bonds in this 2ND WAR LOAN DRIVE, will you buy to the limit—and then buy more? Better yet, will you go to your Bank, Post- office, or wherever you’re used to buying your Bonds—and buy NOW? Will you lend extra money this month? Money that can hasten the day of Victory? Money that can help to save American lives. Money buys money Remember, what you’re really buying with your money is still more money. For after all, these Bonds are money! Money plus! Every dollar you put into War Bonds will bring you a dollar plus interest. So the more Bonds you buy the better for you. Americans— Get Tough — with yourselves — for your country.
