II. o. BAUSMAN ADVISES
FARMERS TO PREPARE
AGAINST FALLING PRICES
continued from first paRel

more vigorously than normal, but
not to the point that it impairs
labor efficiency. This is poor
time to purchase pure bred live
stock, but a good time to sell them.
During the periods of falling
prices. when farm prices fall more
than the prices of manufactured
and processed goods, farmers are
urged to produce as much food as
possible for their own household,
to buy for cash and demand dis
counts.
Farmers should also beware of
shifts in types of farming. Dairy
men. for example. should be wary
about shifting into beef cattle.
Reducing debts with the high
prices farmers receive is most i'm
portant now, concludes DR.. Baus-
man, even if this means a temper
airy reduction in the standard of
living. Approximately $500 bush
els of wheat will pay off a $4,000
mortgage now. while after a few
years it may take 5000 bushels or
more.

lUp 10 Billion a Year
Urged for Education
u fhs Assoeiatsd Press

George r. Zook, president of ths
American Council on Education, to-
day urged that the Federal Govern
ment start spending up to $1,000
000, 600 a year for educational pur-
poses.
Testifying In support of legisla-
tion which would make grants to
the States to help support their
school systems, Mr.. Zook said in
equalities in opportunity which exist
in the various States can be cor
rected only by Federal aid.
He told Senate Public Welfare
subcommittee that he speaks for
about $50 educational associations
and institutions.
saI have come to the conclusion
that Dis much as $500. 900 900 per year
should be appropriated for the sup
port of education at all levels in
cluding aid for needy and capable
students" he said.
'.The G. I. Bills Of Rights has
demonstrated the fact that there are
large numbers Of young people who
will, If they have an opportunity,
take advantage of university or
college education and will devote
themselves very seriously to the
most effective use Of such an oppor-
tunity."
Mr.. Zook said wide disparities in
salaries of teachers-ranging from
median Of about $4,000 In New
York to $3.50 in Mississippi-can be
corrected only by passage Of such leg
islation as the subcommittee is con-
