The article presents an invitation to readers of the Journal "The Nation," to submit material for "In the Wind" column. A prize of five dollars will be awarded each month for the best item. Some of news items that were submitted in March 1940 are given in the article. During recent hearings of the Senate Civil Liberties Committee in San Francisco, Senator Elbert Thomas read aloud a long, detailed plan of the Associated Farmers for mobilizing 600 farmers to repel a "Communist" invasion in Stanislaus County. The $ 5 prize for the best item submitted in March 1940 goes to E.D. of Washington, D.C., for the item about "Karl Marx" published last week.
