w ; YOOR J ; WASHINGTON i REVIEW 5 : Assessment Fight Turns Love Feast Tbi« past week has been « rough one in our OongrMelonal office. The houra In eaoh day have been far tuo few to get all the work done on time. In fact, almoit miatcd my deadline on the weekly column. For example, my aubcommittee on Appropriations has been listen- ing to the testimony by the Army ICngineers as General Pick and Oolonel Potter attempt to justify proposed expenditures totaling |624 million. Our group of five Con- gressmen holds hearings from 10 a. m. to noon and from 2 to 6 p m. In a period of one week the Army Engineers have given facts and figures on 29 out of approx- imately 180 river, harbor and flood control projects. It will probably take two to three weeks mote to finish this testimony and then the cvmmittoe listens to the group from all over the couitry who come to plead for a home town harbor or flood control project. Borne will say, "That isn't mnch of a schedale for » Oonyrasaman— only five hours a day." Folks should know, howevffr, that while our hearings are taking place the House Itaelf is in session each day from noon until 6 or 6 p. m. Since one cant be in committee hearings and on the floor at the same time, I have to read the House debate in the Oongrebsional Record. In ad dltlon, there Is the regular admin- istrative work In the office plus the daily correspondence which must be answered. Your Congress- man isn't objeetjng.to the situa- tion—Just explaining why there may be some slight delay in re- sponding to your letters. Had a visitor from home In the office last week who asked, "Jerry, what do you know about all these huge river, harbor and flood con- trol projects that the Army Engi- neers are presenting to your com- mittee?" My knowledge and In- formation come from two sources During the 81st Congress I served on the Committee on Public Works. Tbls committee didn't expropriate the funds but did investigate to de- termine whether or not any new projects should be authorized by law. The rest of my background oomes from an analysis of the ma- terial which the Army Engineers present both before and during the hearings. Fortunately, 1 have on my staff for a three-month period Professor Bralnard of Michigan State College, who spends all his time reviewing the data from the Engineers. Professor Bralnard and I go over each project before the Engineers make their oral pre- sentation to the committee. On the basis of ou> previous confer- ence I quit General Pick and Col- onel Potter just like a lawyer in a court trial goes after an adverse wttness. If there are any weak nesses in the individual cases pre- sented by the Army Engineers, and some have turned up, it is my job and the responsibility of the other committee members to bring out the facts. Aa you know, it's the obligation of Members of Con- gress to know where the taxpayers' money la to be spent and this is the only w§y one can find out. If anyone wauts a cookbook pre- pared by the Department of Ag- riculture, drop me a line. Jnst ask for a booklet entitled "Family Fare." I took a copy home to Betty a few months ago and she uses it extensively in our home. I can testify that the meals are good, nonrisbing and of the thrifty type. Th» Congress, by public resolu- tion, has designated April as Can- cer Control Month, and the Pres- ident has issued a proclamation calling upon all of our people to help bring this vicious disease un- der control. Cancer strikes on the average in one out of every two families. Every day 676 Americans die of cancer. Certainly we will all want to help do something about this terrible disease. We oan do something about it, for under ths leadership of the American Canoer Society we can furnish the money necessary for the world's foremost scientists and medical men to devote their full time to wf yljf ud fx* finding the cause of and cure for caooer.

The South Boston Farm Bureau will meet Friday evening, April ?0. at the home of MK and Mrs. Kenneh Tucker. There will be a talk on cancer and a collection taken. The usual discussion will follow. The post-election mood of many legislative leaders Is distinctly oool towards making any tax deal with G. Mennen Williams. Reasons: (1) Williams' partisan alUtck on Dr. Lee Thurston, state superintendent of public instruc- tion, alleging Inaction In an official Inquiry into the Litchfield school- padding scandal. (2) The voters' reaffirmation of confidence In the Republican party as shown by the spring election outcome. The governor keeps insisting that a state corporation profits tax is not a "consumer" tax and that "It could not be translated into a gen- eral price increase." His statement Is at direct variance with the Ac- cepted fact that federal income (M- es imposed upon corporations ire paid ultimately by consumers In the form of higher prices. Republican legislative leaders are apt to press for enactment of a gasoline tax Increase, already ap- proved by the Senate, and let the chips fall where they may. Such a levy coupled with additional taxes on corporations may be the final answer to needs for better high- ways and a solution of the state deficit The spring election didn't boost the governor's stock with the state legislature. Dr. Lee M. Thurston, superintsn- dent of schools, urges high school graduates to go altead with ptans to attend college despite draft fears. He says the student may get in one or two years before induc- tion and his program can be more easily completed upon discharge. Michigan will graduate 26,000 high school students this spring. Michigan's TB death rate is de- clining. Discovery of new esses has remained about the same over the last 10 years. Some 6,000 oases are diagnosed annually, as against 6,900 cases per year between 1980 and '39. But the death rate Isas been cut In half In the last 20 years. Last year 36,417 Michigan res- idents paid $11,286,439 in intangible taxes on stocks, bonds, mortgages, land contracts and accounts. The automobile industry In Mich- igan has completed its largest fUvt quarter output In the history of the business—some 2,000,000 units. It is reasonably confident of doing approximately aa well In the BfBtt three months. And most car mak- ers are planning on producing guns and civilian goods simultaneously. Perhaps that predicted automobile shortage won't mature. Another iarge crop of pheasants is expectc-d in southern Michigan this year. According to rural mail carrier and conservation winter surveys the game birds did nc' suf- fer too much from the heavy win- ter. Too, last year's delayed grow- ing season resulted in an abun- dance of unharyested corn in many areas which offered a larger than usual food supply. The opening meeting of the Garden Lore Club will be held In the Methodist church dining room at one o'clock, Tuesday, April 17.

This bull seems to have done very well with daugh- ter* showing an increase of w pounds over their dams. The daughters were out of dams that averaged 443 pounds, they In turn produced 469 pounds of butterfat plus 26, When we get Into this bracket, It Is certainly very good production. By D.HI.A. work we see Fuss' herd is doing very well In our tests this year. Home Economics Spring is the time of year when the walls of one's home need a "face lifting." Decorators are never satisfied to let ths interiors get static. A few years ago, they struggled to get people tc put color on the walls— to gel away from the creams and pastels that were so prevalent. Decorators often used dark col- ors—and many people now have dark walls or one dark wall in a room. The Idea of one dark wall can be unfortunate unless there is a good reason for such a plan. The college specialists tell us that when decorators used the Idea In the beginning, the different wall was made the center of ttie room. That Is, the other areas In the room were subordinate to this one wall. Decorators are now using light walls again—painted with light col- ors which are rich and subtle. Light colors do a great deal for some rooms. They make rooms look larger and give a feeling of airiness. When planning color for your walls this spring, decide on the color from the viewpoint of what will do most for your room and not from what Is In style.

REVIEW 5

: Assessment Fight Turns Love Feast

Tbi« past week has been « rough one in our OongrMelonal office. The houra In eaoh day have been far tuo few to get all the work done on time. In fact, almoit miatcd my deadline on the weekly column.

For example, my aubcommittee on Appropriations has been listen-ing to the testimony by the Army ICngineers as General Pick and Oolonel Potter attempt to justify proposed expenditures totaling |624 million. Our group of five Con-gressmen holds hearings from 10 a. m. to noon and from 2 to 6 p m. In a period of one week the Army Engineers have given facts and figures on 29 out of approx-imately 180 river, harbor and flood control projects. It will probably take two to three weeks mote to finish this testimony and then the cvmmittoe listens to the group from all over the couitry who come to plead for a home town harbor or flood control project.

Borne will say, "That isn't mnch of a schedale for » Oonyrasaman— only five hours a day." Folks should know, howevffr, that while our hearings are taking place the House Itaelf is in session each day from noon until 6 or 6 p. m. Since one c a n t be in committee hearings and on the floor a t the same time, I have to read the House debate in the Oongrebsional Record. In ad dltlon, there Is the regular admin-istrative work In the office plus the daily correspondence which must be answered. Your Congress-man isn't objeetjng.to the situa-tion—Just explaining why there may be some slight delay in re-sponding to your letters.

Had a visitor from home In the office last week who asked, "Jerry, what do you know about all these huge river, harbor and flood con-trol projects that the Army Engi-neers are presenting to your com-mittee?" My knowledge and In-formation come from two sources During the 81st Congress I served on the Committee on Public Works. Tbls committee didn't expropriate the funds but did investigate to de-termine whether or not any new projects should be authorized by law.

The rest of my background oomes from an analysis of the ma-terial which the Army Engineers present both before and during the hearings. Fortunately, 1 have on my staff for a three-month period Professor Bralnard of Michigan State College, who spends all his time reviewing the data from the Engineers. Professor Bralnard and I go over each project before the Engineers make their oral pre-sentation to the committee. On the basis of ou> previous confer-ence I quit General Pick and Col-onel Potter just like a lawyer in a court trial goes after an adverse wttness. If there are any weak nesses in the individual cases pre-sented by the Army Engineers, and some have turned up, it is my job and the responsibility of the other committee members to bring out the facts. Aa you know, it's the obligation of Members of Con-gress to know where the taxpayers' money la to be spent and this is the only w§y one can find out.

If anyone wauts a cookbook pre-pared by the Department of Ag-riculture, drop me a line. Jnst ask for a booklet entitled "Family Fare." I took a copy home to Betty a few months ago and she uses it extensively in our home. I can testify that the meals are good, nonrisbing and of the thrifty type.

Th» Congress, by public resolu-tion, has designated April as Can-cer Control Month, and the Pres-ident has issued a proclamation calling upon all of our people to help bring this vicious disease un-der control. Cancer strikes on the average in one out of every two families. Every day 676 Americans die of cancer. Certainly we will all want to help do something about this terrible disease. We oan do something about it, for under ths leadership of the American Canoer Society we can furnish the money necessary for the world's foremost scientists and medical men to devote their full time to wf yljf ud f x * finding the cause of and cure for caooer.

Legislative Leaders Are Against Any Tax Deal With Governor

Swiss Ladles Aid will meet Thursday, April 19, with Mrs. John Blerl, 3 mile road.

The South Boston Farm Bureau will meet Friday evening, April ?0. at the home of MK and Mrs. Kenneh Tucker. There will be a talk on cancer and a collection taken. The usual discussion will follow.

The post-election mood of many legislative leaders Is distinctly oool towards making any tax deal with G. Mennen Williams.

Reasons: (1) Williams' partisan alUtck on Dr. Lee Thurston, state superintendent of public instruc-tion, alleging Inaction In an official Inquiry into the Litchfield school-padding scandal. (2) The voters' reaffirmation of confidence In the Republican party as shown by the spring election outcome.

The governor keeps insisting that a state corporation profits tax is not a "consumer" tax and that "It could not be translated into a gen-eral price increase." His statement Is at direct variance with the Ac-cepted fact that federal income (M-es imposed upon corporations i r e paid ultimately by consumers In the form of higher prices.

Republican legislative leaders are apt to press for enactment of a gasoline tax Increase, already ap-proved by the Senate, and let the chips fall where they may. Such a levy coupled with additional taxes on corporations may be the final answer to needs for better high-ways and a solution of the state deficit

The spring election didn't boost the governor's stock with the state legislature.

Dr. Lee M. Thurston, superintsn-dent of schools, urges high school graduates to go altead with ptans to attend college despite draft fears. He says the student may get in one or two years before induc-tion and his program can be more easily completed upon discharge.

Michigan will graduate 26,000 high school students this spring.

Michigan's TB death rate is de-clining. Discovery of new esses has remained about the same over the last 10 years. Some 6,000 oases are diagnosed annually, as against 6,900 cases per year between 1980 and '39. But the death rate Isas been cut In half In the last 20 years.

Last year 36,417 Michigan res-idents paid $11,286,439 in intangible taxes on stocks, bonds, mortgages, land contracts and accounts.

The automobile industry In Mich-igan has completed its largest fUvt quarter output In the history of the business—some 2,000,000 units. It is reasonably confident of doing approximately aa well In the BfBtt three months. And most car mak-ers are planning on producing guns and civilian goods simultaneously. Perhaps that predicted automobile shortage won't mature.

Another iarge crop of pheasants is expectc-d in southern Michigan this year. According to rural mail carrier and conservation winter surveys the game birds did nc' suf-fer too much from the heavy win-ter. Too, last year's delayed grow-ing season resulted in an abun-dance of unharyested corn in many areas which offered a larger than usual food supply.

The opening meeting of the Garden Lore Club will be held In the Methodist church dining room a t one o'clock, Tuesday, April 17. A cooperative luncheon will be served and each member is re-quested to please bring their own service and a dish to pass. Coffee and hot rolls will be furnished.

A proof for a Brown Swiss bull owned by Fred Fuss and Sisters, LoweH, came through this past week. This bull Is Harry of Swiss Lane Farms.

By D.HI.A. work we see Fuss' herd is doing very well In our tests this year.

Home Economics Spring is the time of year when

the walls of one's home need a "face lifting."

Decorators are never satisfied to let ths interiors get static. A few years ago, they struggled to get people tc put color on the walls— to gel away from the creams and pastels that were so prevalent.

Decorators often used dark col-ors—and many people now have dark walls or one dark wall in a room.

The Idea of one dark wall can be unfortunate unless there is a good reason for such a plan.

The college specialists tell us that when decorators used the Idea In the beginning, the different wall was made the center of ttie room. That Is, the other areas In the room were subordinate to this one wall.

Decorators are now using light walls again—painted with light col-ors which are rich and subtle.

Light colors do a great deal for some rooms. They make rooms look larger and give a feeling of airiness.

When planning color for your walls this spring, decide on the color from the viewpoint of what will do most for your room and not from what Is In style.

I m p o r t a n t ! All Fanners Should Read this Report from Doanes Ag-ricultural Report of April 1:

More Eggs Needed

More eggs are naeded to supply our growing population and

the armed forces. Every morning 6,762 new Americans show up

for breakfast. In one year that adds up to 2,468,000 people. This is roughly equal to the combined population of Cincinnati, Ind-ianapolis, Kansas City, Memphis and Newark. The armed forces now total about 3 million men. These men will eat about twice as many eggs as civilians. Together our Increased population a n d growing armed forces add a potential demand for over 175 mil-lion dozen eggs more than were consumed In 1950. To lay this many eggs would take W/i million more hens.

Chicks intended for flock replacement are lagging behind

last year. This looks like a big mistake and lots of poultry farmers

may lose out because they failed to go ahead. Pullets will lay 50

per cent more eggs per head than old hens next fall and winter

when egg prices will be at peak levels for the year. It is already late to start pullets but chicks started before April 30 will begin to lay by the middle of September.

This article seemed of great enough importance to the farmer to warrant this reprint for every one to read
