$2,OOO,O0O Program
For Relief In State
SmbmittedAtDOver

Immediately submitted it to the Gen
eral Assembly. Following its read
ing, on motion of Senator Griffen-
berg, the committee was given ris-
ing vote of thanks by the Assembly
for its work and comprehensive and
exhaustive report.
Committees Report
The report was as follows:
Your committee appointed to
study the relief needs of our fellow
citizens. and draft a plan and the
necessary bill or bills for your con-
sideration. begs to submit the fol-
lowing report. This Is but a brief
outline and we will be pleased to ex-
plain every detail OF the program
and the reason for our decisions.
You realize we had series of facts
and ideas and making decisions was
no easy task.
I'VE know that you are aware of
the fact that considering relief. ad-
ministering relief and paying for re-
lief is a matter of human personal
.ity and much responsibility. The
needs of one are not the needs of
another. There must be common
sense, diplomacy, shrewdness, and
an understanding of composite con-
ditions. Sectional. personal. politi-
cal and selfish ideas must of neces-
sity be put in the background.
I'VE have considered numerous
facts and phases, some mentioned
in our request made to the Hon.
Harry l.. Hopkins. and many others.
Frankly, fellow membRrs. we are
faced with reality. The unemplOy-
ment and relief needs are positive.
On the other hand the financial con-
ditiOn of the State is not as secure
and sound as some think II should
be, but to our credit 1t is i'm better
shape than many of our sister states.
even though some say those who
went before us, thought nothing of
prodigality.
Must Take Burden
"One thing is sure, our sense of
values in on sounder basis than
ever before. In life some or all of
us do not like to face haTdships. but
the unemployed citizens have had
their share and the State must again
take over burden. one we hoped
we had taken care of i'm November.

of the following program:

Hopkins Promise
"Air Hopkins promised that If the
Legislature approved such a pro-
gram the U. S. Government would
donate 100000 for direct relief. He
had very positive doubts as TO the
amount we set aside for direct re-
lief being sufficient and suggested
S1.000.000 and said If passed with
the balance of the program the gov
ernment would match the $1.000.000.
Based on what we had heard. this is
more than most members and citi-
zens expected.
HE also stated that IL either pro-
gram failed to pass. In other words.
II the public works bill was approv-
ed and the direct relief bill killed.
or vice versa. he would be of the
opinion that Delaware had no SER
ious problem, and did not need sup
port or help from the government.
He was frank to say. however. that
from information he had In his pos
session he knew this was not true.
"He also indicated that he would
do all i'm his power to secure IL pos
sible assistance for public works.
but as to what could he accom-
plished, the result was Indefinite
He was of the opinion that our re-
lief problem would be with us for
many months and realized with
others that while public works and
other forms Of work relief and direct
relief help to a great extent, they
were by no means permanent cures.

Of course, it is no new thing
for artists to be employed by
the state. The greatest works
of art in the Old World were
done either by order Of the
church or h G government.

many others received salaries

Retailer Liable
For Processing Tax.

A new definition of the term first
domestic processing" recently an
nounced by the Agricultural Adjustment
Administration, provides that producers
or feeders who slaughter hogs and sell
the products to retailers or other COM
mercial handlers will no longer be
liable for paying the processing tax.
A new regulation transfers to COM
mercial handlers all liability for paying
the processing tax on hogs products de-
rived from hogs slaughtered by pro-
ducerS and feeders. However, this rul-
ing does not apply to the producer who
slaughterS hogs and sells directly to
the consumers.
A producer who SlaughterS his own
hogs and sells or exchanges directly to
consumers not more than 800 pounds Of
the products derived during any mar
keting year November 5th to November
9Th following) is not required to pay
the tax. If the producer sells more
l11ei11 oOO ROuAANlos SOS Inv AAAOAS SAAeeAA
1000 pounds of pork products from his
own hogs direct to consumers, he is
liable for the tax only on the volume
sold in excess of the 800 pound ex-
emption. If he sells more than 1000
pounds during any marketing year, he
loses his 800 pound exemption and is
liable for the tax on all products de-
rived from his hogs which he has sold.
The tax is $225 per hundredweight of
live hogs. Dressed weight may be
changed to live weight by the use of a
set of figures conversion factor0 pre-
Scribed in the regulations and available
in the county agents offices. The con-
version factor on fresh pork products
other than lard is 1872 per cent.
Farmers who slaughter and sell pur-
chased hogs are not entitled to a 300
pound exemption. Any farmer who
processes hogs for consumption by his
household, however, is exempt from
paying the tax on such hogs.

Many Duck Stamps
Sold This Year,

Advance figures show that the NIigra-
tory Waterfowl Hunting Stamp, better
known as the Duck Stamp has re-
turned 1855, 900 up to November 30th
to the Post Office Department for trans
fer to the United States Bureau of
Biological Survey for the purchase and
maintenance of waterfowl refugees, ac-
cording to a bulletin Of the American
Game Association. The stamps are still
selling and it is believed the total sales
for this shooting season will reach
somewhere between $75O,O00 and
100000.
No one knows how many waterfowl
hunters there are in the United States,
but the number of purchasers of the
duck stamp will give one fair idea.
When the seasons in all of the states
will have closed and all returns from
the sale of the duck stamp are in, Off
Gals of the government propose to butt
the total figure of sales into the known
number of license hunters in all the
states as soon as these returns are in
and learn the proportion of waterfowl
hunters to upland game hunters.
GueSSes based upon personal observa-
ton by veteran hunters, hold that not
more than one out of seven hunters
hunt migratory waterfowl. Through
this basis it has generally been esti-
mated that the waterfowl stamp would
return about 81 100000 a year for build
ing nesting and resting refugees for the
birds.

The "go" sign does not always mean
ego" regardless of circumstances. There
are certain qualifications to these
signals.
The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
recently declared that the 'go" signals
is not command to the motorist but
is qualified permission to proceed
lawfully and carefully in the direction
indicated. "It does not mean" says the
decision, that the persons receiving
the signal may proceed without care
or thought as to the safety of those
who may be in his path" Interpreted
broadly, the decision means that motor
lists must drive carefully at all times,
regardless of what the signal says. 1t
means that pedestrians who have
started across while the sign read
STOP" have a right to continue, and
the motorist must wait until they have
passed and then proceed.
Do not rush the light. Take your
time. The pedestrian has some rights.

Deaf Children Should
Be Found Early.

Three million American School
children are headed toward the lonely
isolation of partial or complete deafness
according to survey completed re-
Gently by the American Federation of
Organizations for the Hard of Hearing.
This astounding figure is cited by the
Public Health Education Committee of
the Minnesota State Medical Associ-
alton in a bulletin issued today to show
the great need for hearing tests in every
American school.
"a good many of those three million
have no idea that their hearing is de-
fective" says the bulletin. Their
failure to hear everything that goes
on in the school room is set down as
SlowneSs or inattention. They are like
ly to become what are now called
problem children.
Their parents are generally equally
unaware of the trouble. But, happily,
the years are passing when treatment
has its best chance to cure or retard
deafness. All specialists in diseases Of
the ear agree childhood is the time to
correct disease conditions in the ear
before irreparable destruction has oc-
Cured. Also there are comparatively
few cases of deafness that could not
be remedied if they were treated in
time.
But the years are passing, also, when
it is easiest to learn lip reading so that
the handicapped child can be prepared
to lead a useful, happy life like other
children"
The physicians strongly urge hearing
tests for every child in Minnesota, pos
sibly with the use of the audiometer, a
new electric device by which group of
children can be tested at once.
The services of the Committee on
Deafness Prevention and Amelioration
of the Minnesota State Medical Associ-
alton for consultation with educators in
attacking this problem are available.

UndercOOked Pork
A Dangerous Food.

To eat raw or undercooked pork is
to run the risk of dangerous and
sometimes fatal disease, known as
trichinoSis, says DR.. w. A. Riley, chief
of the division of entomology, Univer-
Sity Farm, st. Paul. Gases of this dis
ease have been rather frequent in
recent years, yet it is easily avoided by
strictly avoiding pork in all forms, that
has not been thoroughly cooked.
TrichinoSis is caused by tiny worm,
too small to be seen without micro
scope, which lives in the flesh of in
fected hogs and if not killed by cooking,
infects the person eating the meat from
these animals Trichinosis affects per-
sons of either sex and all ages, regard
less of nationality. Recent studies by
the University of Minnesota show that
the infection is much more common
than has been supposed. While a light
infeStation is often manifested merely
by intestinal pains and diarrhea with a
light fever, heavier infeStatlon results
in serious and long-continued illness
and not infrequently in death.
Most cases of trichinosis seem to re-
suit from the eating of uncooked sum-
mer Sausages and raw or imperfectly
cooked smoked meats, though any part
of an infested animal is equally danger
ous Ham, says DR.. Riley, should be
cooked the equivalent of at least an
hour in boiling water for each four
pounds Other cuts should be given an
equally thorough cooking.
