Tilling hs a Hundred Teams of Steel
More power on the farm means more food
: » more jobs:
, If a farmer had three teams of horses
twenty-five years ago he was well equipped.
Now, with over two million tractors and
thousands of other power producers, most
farmers command the equivalent of 2 7 a
HUNDRED TEAMS.
Wise use of their power, which can be
packed into a few tons of steel, is enabling
U.S. farmers to keep abreast of unprecedented
food requirements. It is one of the secrets of
national progress.
Steel horsepower does more than produce
bigger crops with less labor. It has released,
for production of human food, millions of
acres once needed to feed horses. and mules,
The Institute has printed a booklet STEEL SERVES
Write for a.copy and it will be sent gladly.
and has created thousands of new jobs for
town and city people who process and sell the
inereased harvests.
The benefits of farming with steel are
result of teamwork between farmers and in-
dustry. The farmer knows what he needs; in-
dustry knows how to supply it at a price he
can afford. This teamwork must continue if
America is to remain a land of abundance.
Farmers need still more power. The coun-
try needs still more food. Uninterrupted in-
dustrial production will permit industry to
catch up with the pent-up need for more farm

Funny Man

By WILLIAM J. MURDOCH
McClure Syvndicate— WNU Features,

ILDERS came right to the
point. “You're slipping,” he
told Jeff. “Your gags don’t go over
any more. Maybe' you do need a |
studio audience after all.” |
“No, I don’t want one,” said Jeff |
Jackson. *‘1 got tired of secing peo-
ple laugh at me in vaudeville, 1"
Shey aren't laughing now,”
Wilders said between nibbles at his
cigar. He opened a desk drawer and

‘“Beefs—all of them about you,’ he
that backwoodsy dialect and that |
corny line of guff. I ought to know
—I've been in this business for 30
years. But you're slipping, Jeff.
What's eating you?”
Jeff Jackson wanted to lean over
and twist his manager's nose right
out of other people's business. He
didn’t mind the backwoodsy crack,
because that’s just what he was— |
backwoodsy enough to resent a lit-
tle ;pipsqueak, snooping, around.prop-
erty that wasn't his Wh, But twist-
ing Wilder's nose wouldn't help Rose |
Edith; and Rose Edith, sick as she
was and the best sister any man
ever had, needed all the help she
could get.
“Maybe I'm just tired,” Jackson
said through a yawn. ‘This radio
business is new to me.”
“It'll be a perfect stranger if you
don’t come around,” Wilders replied
dryly. “I don’t want to lose you,
Jeff, So I've hired some writers for
you.”
“No!” Jackson said flatly. “I'm
no trained seal to catch someone

J |
“Bestor’s throwing fits, not fish,”
| Wilders snapped. ‘‘Says we're not |
| selling enough of his bread and he’s
|
threatening to take you off the air.” |
“My contract—'' Jeff said sul- |
lenly. {
“Paper, just to get you off that |
rube vaudeville circuit. What's it go-
ing to be — wviwriters, or the front
door?” N
Sanatoriums were expensive. So
were doctors and doctors. Rose |
Edith had him so worried now he |
couldn’t be himself on the radio. |
And if his income were cut off— |
“All right,” Jeff said. “It’s writers.” |
A week of writing, arguing, hash- |
ing, rehashing and rewriting. A |
week of rehearsing, timing, cutting !
and padding. A few minutes at the
microphone in the empty studio Jeff
Jackson insisted on. Another blast
of criticism from the letter-writing
fans and another session with Wild-
ers. “I don’t know what to do with
you,” he growled at Jeff. “I've
hired the best comedy writers in |
the business and still you flop.”
“I'm sick of this ‘Laugh Clown |
Laugh’ act. It’s my sister. She's |
more dead than alive, and you ex-
pect me to stand up before a micro- |
phone and make folks laugh,” Jeff
said.
Wilders gestured impatiently.
“Why didn't you say so before?
We'll get the best specialists. Don't
worry about the bills, Jeff.”
“I can take care of my own,”
Jeff said with contempt. “It's not
money I'm worrying about; it's !
Rose Edith. You're a city boy, Mr.
Wilders. You don’t know how close
families are down home. Pa’s place
was 'way back in the hills and we
didn’t have a chance to know many
other kids, so Rose Edith and I just
naturally had to play together.”
Wilders was silent. *‘I see how it
is,” he said finally. “But how can
you take care of Rose Edith if Bes-
tor finds someone ‘to your
place, Jeff? Who'll pay the bills?’
Wilders closed in fast. Here was a
chance to sock money-spending John
Q. Public right in the old tear
ducts — a perfect sob story if ever
there was one. “Instead of going |
through a comedy routine this week, |
tell the folks what you've just told |
me—they'll love it and will beg for-
giveness for being so tough on you.
Jeff, it's your only chance to hang
on to that dough that Rose Edith
needs,” he warned, seeing the fire
in Jackson's eyes.
The next Wednesday evening Jeff
stood at the microphone without a
script. Simply he told his millions |
of listeners about Rose Edith, about
the childhood they had shared. He
told them of the hardships at home
and how he determined always to
take care of her. He told of her
illness, of the almost unbelievable
number of doctors and nurses who
were now caring for her. He closed
with a brief, ‘That's my story,
folks.”
The studio telephones were
jangling almost before he finished.
Letters by the hundreds flooded the
station the next day. And the es-
sence of the response was found in
a short paragraph taken from a |
radio column in a news
|
wiper which
the next day hit the streets a few
hours after the doctors told Jeff
that Rose Edith had passed the
crisis, that she was on the long,
long road to recovery:
“In answer to his many recent
critics,” the item read, ‘“‘Jeff Jack-

son ably vindicated himself at the
microphone last night, at the same
time re-establishing himself as
one of radio’s most promising per-
formers. In his familiar homey
style, Jackson related the ad
tures and misadveniures of h
ary sister Rose Edith, one of

imagir
the most uproarious and delightful
characters he has yet created. He
was never funnier ™

William L. Batt
William L. Batt, prominent
adelphia engineer and busin 3
has been named Pennsylv
Chairman of the 1947 N
Dimes which takes place
15-30, Basil O'Connor, president of
the National Foundation for Infan-
tile Paralysis, has announced.
. The March of Dimes is the anu-
nual fund raising appeal cf the
National Foundaticn, a non-pre
organization founded in 1938 b >
late President Roosevelt and sup-
ported entirely by voluntary con-
tributions of the American people.
Mr. Batt, formerly vice chairman
of the War Production Board, is
president of SKF Industries, I'hil-
adelphia. He served as U. S. rep-
resentative to the Combined Raw
Materials Board of the United Na-
tions from 1942 to 1945, was
a member of an American trade
mission to Mescow in 1841. He is
a member of the Business Advisory
Council of the U. S. Depa ent of
Commerce and the Advisory Com-
mittee on Voluntary Foreign Re.
lief. For outstanding wartime scrv.
ices to the Government, he was
recently awarded the Medal of
Merit by President Truman.
Mr, O'Connor, in making known
Mr. Batt's acé¢eptance of the March

of Dimes chairmanship, revealed
that in coping with the 1946 ocut-
breaks of infantile paralysis the
National. Foundation sent to its
chapters in the field more than
four million dollars in epidemic aid
funds through the end of October.
“Many of this year's polio pa-
tients,” Mr. O'Connor said, “will
require hospitalization and care for
a long period of time. The after-
care of these patients will be more
expensive than treatment in the
acute stage of the disease. The
high cost of epidemics demonstrates
the reat need for the services of
public-spirited men like Mr. Batt.
His efforts will prove of great
value in the forthcoming appeal.”
A graduate of Purdue University,
with a B.S. degree in mechanical
engineering, Mr. Batt holds honor-
ary doctor of engineering degrees
