The vaccine is prepared with
Brucella abortus strain 49,. which

cows to abort their calves. Their

RUSTY TANKS TO
Be GIVEN CANADA
MAC HINES Will FIGURE IN
FURTHER DEALS FOR
MORE BASES

Fort George G.. Meade, Md. Sept.
7-AP-Army officers indicated to-
day that 229 rusty but still trusty
World War tanks here were slated
for transfer to Canada for training
purposes.
Holding somewhat the same IN
ternational trade status as did
so destroyers recently turned over
to Britain. the 22-year-old obsolete
monsters would figure in further
U. S.-Canadian deals for air and
naval bases, these sources ex-
planned.
Gen. George C. Marshall. army
chief OF stan, forecast the tank
transaction at Washington press
conference Thursday.
Only one OF the 229-lined up in
an overgrown field officially listed
as a tank park"-now is in operat-
ing condition, justifying its pre-
ferred rating by uprooting trees.

post
But, tank experts contended the
others needed little more than new
spark plugs. batteries, fuel, and 4
healthy yank on the cranks.
Despite rusted exteriors OF the
70 "heavies". (Battleweight. 80
900 pounds) the interior machinery
is in good condition, imm ersed in
oil and grease. The "heayies' are
"a feet long. have a maximum
speed of six miles an hour, and
mount five machine guns and two
2.24inch guns firing six-pound
shells.
About 154 lighter tanks OF French
design known as renaults are in
far worse shape. Many have turrst
tops off and portfolios open to the
weather. Their engines can-or
could in 1918 turn up eight miles
an hour. Armament includes a
37-millimeter or 30-calibre machine
gun.

ELECTRICITY FOR
FARM DISTRICTS
Would Also Have Variable
System Of Rural
Taxation

Rushville. Ind, Sept. ZAP -
Proposals for expanding the rural
Identification program and for
variable system OF farm taxation
were included today IN Wendell l..
Wilkes agricultural recommen-
dations.
The Republican presidential
nominee offered these suggestions
to 70 farm editors after telling
them that the agreement to trade
so average American destroyers
for military bases in British posses
sions was "the most dictatorial and
arbitrary act OF any President n.
the history OF the United States"
IF we cannot defeat the dcta-
tors though the processes of de-
mocracy." said Willkie. then t
will prove that the democratic way
is not the effective way"
The editors conference Friday
brought from the candidate four
point outline of his farm views.
First. he said. although the farm
err is forced to buy in protected
market and sell in an unprotected
market, immediate removal Of
tariff barriers would bring eco
nomic and financial chaos.
Second, he continued. every effort
should be made to increase foreign
markets when the European war
ends.
His third contention was that
fixed valuation of land provides an
unsatisfactory base for farm taxes.
A preferable system, he suggested.
would be based on farm income,
allowing farmers to pay lower
taxes in bad years.
Contending that farm income Is
related directly to industrial EN-
ployment. Willkie proposed as his
fourth point a wise and just ad-
ministration" Of present laws Ia
order to stimulate industry id
give workers greater purchasing
power.

lief that soil conservation pay
