Oklahoma City, Dec. 2. - A
"streamlined" processing tax to
make new deal farm programs
elf-financing was suggested by
Secretary of Agriculture Henry
A. Wallace in the first address of
his midwestern farm belt tour.
The secretary, speaking before
1000 farmers and over a national
radio network, declared there was
no assurance Congress would con-

programs.
"Parity payments for cotton,
wheat, tobacco, rice and corn
were voted at the last regular
session by an extremely narrow

were not made the effect upon
farmers might easily be disas-

Wherefore, tt is only the part
of common sense to make the
farm programs self-financing."
Among plans under discussion
is the so-called certificate plan.
He termed this a modern version
of the processing tax and de-

Eddie took her clumsily. See

appealingly at Mary Lou.
Mary Louis eyes filed with tears.
Then she held out her arms toward

I missed the same train she did"
Eddie studied her face. What he
saw satisfied him. Still he hesitated
for moment. THAT sounds good
to me. But I'd better get the con-

IT WAS soon decided that Mary

dress, before the train pulled out
leaving him holding Annette as she
waved a good-by to Mary Lou.
But the trip home was much cas-
