Into this scheme of things there fit of course the government lending agencies which next year, as in the past, will help with production loans.Įvery Governor with whom I have talked is in full accord with this program of doing work for these farm families, just as every Governor agrees that the individual states will take care of their unemployables but that the cost of employing those who are entirely able and willing to work must be borne by the Federal Government. We agree, therefore, that we must put them to work for a decent wage, and when we reach that decision we kill two birds with one stone, because these families will earn enough by working, not only to subsist themselves, but to buy food for their stock, and seed for next year's planting. They do not want to go on the dole and they are one thousand percent right.

We have the option, in the case of families who need actual subsistence, of putting them on the dole or putting them to work. It was their fathers' task to make homes it is their task to keep those homes it is our task to help them with their fight.įirst let me talk for a minute about this autumn and the coming winter.

No cracked earth, no blistering sun, no burning wind, no grasshoppers, are a permanent match for the indomitable American farmers and stockmen and their wives and children who have carried on through desperate days, and inspire us with their self-reliance, their tenacity and their courage. Yet I would not have you think for a single minute that there is permanent disaster in these drought regions, or that the picture I saw meant depopulating these areas. I saw brown pastures which would not keep a cow on fifty acres. I shall never forget field after field of corn stunted, earless and stripped of leaves, for what the sun left the grasshoppers took. I shall never forget the fields of wheat so blasted by heat that they cannot be harvested.

I saw other farm families who have not lost everything but who, because they have made only partial crops, must have some form of help if they are to continue farming next spring. I saw livestock kept alive only because water had been brought to them long distances in tank cars. I saw cattlemen who because of lack of grass or lack of winter feed have been compelled to sell all but their breeding stock and will need help to carry even these through the coming winter. That was the extreme case, but there are thousands and thousands of families on western farms who share the same difficulties. I talked with families who had lost their wheat crop, lost their corn crop, lost their livestock, lost the water in their well, lost their garden and come through to the end of the summer without one dollar of cash resources, facing a winter without feed or food - facing a planting season without seed to put in the ground. I saw drought devastation in nine states. I went primarily to see at first hand conditions in the drought states to see how effectively Federal and local authorities are taking care of pressing problems of relief and also how they are to work together to defend the people of this country against the effects of future droughts. Technically located in Logan Square, people in Bucktown, Wicker Park, Lincoln Park and all over Chicago have found their way to Fireside Bowl.I have been on a journey of husbandry.

This newly renovated bowling alley has maintained the original look and feel of the past with updates to the scoring equipment and amenities. Fireside Bowl remains increasingly popular by staying true to the game of bowling in the city of Chicago. Lately with all of the disco bowling and light shows and glow in the dark bowling, it has become increasingly difficult to find a place with that true Chicago bowling alley feel. While many Bowling Alleys in Chicago wound up closing, Fireside Bowl has remained open for over 60 years in Logan Square. Fireside Bowl flourished, during the 50’s and 60’s until the factories started closing and many people moved to the suburbs.įireside Bowl changed along with the times and was a source of entertainment all along the way. Everybody was in at least one bowling league with people from work or church. At that time Bowling was very popular, Chicago being a blue collar town, was a bowling mecca. Fireside Bowl is an original family owned Chicago Bowling Alley established in the 1940’s.
