Wall Stresses U. S. Aid
For Development Of World
The rest of the world helped
to explore and start the develop
merit of what is now the United
States, and now the rest of the
world is hoping that the great
agricultural and industrial "know
how" of the United States will-
help develop the backward areas
of the world.
So said Duncan Wall, Informa
tion Director of the Food and
Agricultural Organization of the
United Nations, before a public
lecture audience on the Univer
sity campus Monday night.
Dr. Wall, answering the gen
eral question of why the United
States and other highly devel
oped nations should help feed
and clothe the multitudes, said
two-thirds of the people of the
earth do not get enough to eat.
Food production is expanding
over the world in the post war
years, Wall said, but this is in
sufficient because 56,000 new

people sit down at the world's
breakfast table each morning, a
rate of population growth that
outstrips the gain in food produc
tion.
The hundreds of millions of
human beings who are poorly fed
can get adequate nutrition, Mr,
Wall said, if the world's acreage
of land is increased; the yield
per acre of our principal grain
crops is increased, and the huge
losses of food sustained by poor
storage and distribution systems
are corrected. He said other ways
of improving food production and
distribution would increase the
available supply even more.
Wall pointed out that food
production can be increased by
just improving some of the basic
tools. Over half the world s sup
ply of gram, he said, is harvested
with the hand sickle. Other sim
pie tools could be improved to
increase production and reduce
human toil. On a broader scale
dams for irrigation and power,
highways and railroads are
needed the world over, and all
would greatly help development
of our food production facilities.
' Why should we feed the mul
titudes?" Wall asked the audience.
"Well, the multitudes are com
posed of human beings, and our
nation should be governed by the
philosophy of live and let live."
He pointed out that it- would
also be good business to develop
backward nations because you
can't sell merchandise to poor-
house people. "Besides," Wall
added, "people are either your
triends or enemies, and aid these
days will help us win needed
friends."

OOLD'S . . . Street Floer
DRAMA . . .
in the
HAYLOFT
By W. E. Kunhart
. Under the capable direction of
Lou.Girard, the Hayloft Summer
Theatre is presenting, "xes My
Darlinc Dauehter." this week.
The comedy written by Mark
Reed, Is the story of the liewis
Murray family; a daughter frus
trated and in love; and a mother
trying to advise, but not set an
example for the moral life of her
off-spring!
Lou Girard. as the father,
Lewis Murray, the business-wise
banker-father gave a fine per
formance. As his wife, Ann
Whitman Murray, Alexandra
Jack was very good as the mother
trying to convince her daughter
that applying sound moral prin
ciples to life was by far the
proper thing to do.
The plot unfolds with the prob
lem of the daughter, Ellen Mur
ray played by Judith Hunter,
wanting to elope with her boy
friend on "a week-end affair."
Despite her mother's sound ad
vice she insists on displaying
her lack of knowledge about such
things. She affords a substantial
rebuttal by digging into the "fam
ily closet," and finding her
mother had such experiences in
her youth!
Undoubtedly, the advice of the
marriage-wise sister-in-law, Con
stance Nevins, presented by Mary
Lou Blatterspieler, was given in
vain. Although she had made the
familiar "trip to Reno" three
times she could not convince the
darling young daughter from her
vast experience that she should
not undertake such a trip.
o
Rich Miller gave the perform
ance of the evening with his ex
cellent presentation of Douglas
Hall, the young and foolish lover
of the Murray daughter. David
Andrews, as Martin, supplied the
Butler duties of the Murray
household.
All goes well for the couple in
question until it is found that
'Dld Vou Ha.r That Phony Rumor About Milwaukee Itrlns; A-ltomomir"
Mrs. Murray was once madly in
love with Arthur Howe, as Titus
Jaywood, an ex-poet, who is a
week-end guest at the family
estate. Using this as an excuse
to convince her mother, the
daughter leaves for the week-end
Upon her return, the family tries
to rush her into a hurried mar
riage to her loved one; but hav
ing the "bad girl" feeling 6he
flatly refuses! After a family
scene, her boy friend leaves
broken-hearted only to have the
daughter-follow in pursuit to
bring down the final curtain.
I feel that the play was not
presented too well, and that the
acting, generally could have been
much better. It is my belief that
the "true professional actor" need
not be continually prompted as
was the case on this first-nighter
performance. However, consider
ing the terrific amount of play
production that is taking place
at the Hayloft Theatre, and that a
new three-act play is presented
each week, we might partly ex
cuse these mistakes. I would sug
gest that the actors watch such
basic errors as: stage turns;
blocking out: '
It is to be understood that
where, and when, a price of ad
mission is being charged for a
production, a professional per
formance is expected. I would
like to supply this adage: "Do
as I say, Not as I would do!"
More than 6,000 residents of tha
United States die from burns each
year and one out of every three
victims is a child under the age
of five.
