THE ATLANTIC ALL THE WEEK IN ONE DAY Editor JOS. THOMAS Post Box 199 Limón, Costa Rica Number 60 February 3, 1951 Year TASK OUR Prime Ministers Conference Held FROM OUR DESK BY THE EDITOR In previous editions we have expressed our thought on the necessity of an effective preparation economically to confront the problems which will come with the Third War which is inevitable.
Today we repeat that We must plant or we will die for hunger. The warning is well clear to make it important for those who are to know the situation of agriculture in all its sad reality.

The small farmers are the ones who will resolve the situation by planting several small lots. We have the land in abundance and men disposed to cultivate the soil. That which is needed is the money to face the necessary The Conference of Commonwealth Prime Ministers, gathered in London expenses and to live while the land is producing.
