ard Oil Co. New Jersey)-each the
worlds largest in its field-opened
the country's first commercially op-
Grated, large-scale test plant for
converting coal into a gas suitable
for making gasoline.
John L. Lewis, president Of the
United Mine Workers. and a group
of the Nations top industrial ex-
ecutives were escorted through the
plant.
Very interesting, very interest
ing" was Mr.. Lewis only comment.
Already operating "a hours a day,
the trim four-story plant took near
ly two years and $500,000 to build.
It's object is to pave the way for
the development of an American
synthetic liquid fuel industry based
on coal.
Backers of the venture anticipate
the day when the Nations dwindling
petroleum reserves are expected to
run dry. BY that time, they ex-
planned, they are counting on coal
not only to fill the country's gaso-
line tanks, but also to provide Diesel
and other oils, tar products and
even plastics..
National defense needs also figure
in the calculations. While military
leaders have warned the country
may face a 100000 barrel daily
deficit of fuel oil if another wal
came, there is an estimated three
trillion tons of coal still under
ground - enough, by Bureau OF
Mines calculations, to supply 2,60C
billion barrels of oil, and to last fol
1900 years at the present consump-
! ton rate

Grange Unit Rejects
Rigid Crop Control,
Cash Subsidy Plans
By the Associated Press

PORTLAND. Me-, Nov. 16.-Pro-
posals to use either rigid produc-
ton crop controls or cash subsidies
to keep farmers prosperous were re-
jected today by a National Grange
convention committee.
In a report to the farm organiza-
ton meeting, the Grange Agricul-
ture Committee declared full output
by industry would do more than
anything else to maintain farm
prosperity.
| Failure of industry to keep pace
with farm output was claimed to be
the major cause of farm depressions.
The grange believes" the report
said, that the so-called farm prob
lem is in the main a result of the
failure of industry to keep its out
put in balance with the abundant
output of farms. and Of the result
ing failure of farm prices to remain
in proper balance with prices Of
other goods and services"
FOR frlce SuppOftS.
The committee did not propose,
however. the junking of all Federal
farm-aid programs.
1t would keep price supports, but
would use them chiefly as devices to
help guide production away from
surpluses and shortages. 1t would
use them also to prevent a ruinous
collapse in prices. ,f
The committee urged that crop
controls be used only as last re-
sort" to combat surpluses and low
prices.
The report, which will be acted on
by the convention later in the week,
slapped at a cash subsidy plan ad-
vocated by J. w. FIGHTER, master of
the Ohio Grange.
Subsidies, Held Infiationary.
Mr. FIGHTER would do away with
all price supports. He would allow
uncontrolled markets to set farm
and food prices. If those prices
failed to give farmers a fair income,
the Government would pay the Diff
ference in subsidies.
Subsidies are in reality for the
benefit of consumers" the commit
tee said. But the stigma Of draw
ing money out of the Treasury. at
taches to the farmer.
Moreover, subsidies operate to IN
crease our colossal National debt
and are in themselves inflationary
The committees recommenda-
tions, il approved by the convention,
would put the Grange at odds with
Representative Cooley, Democrat, of
North Carolina. prospective chair
man Of the House Agriculture Com
mittee in the coming session Of
Congress.
Mr.. Cooley wants to maintain rel
atively high and inflexible price
supports to assure stable farm
income. He would accompany them
with Government controls to pre-
vent surpluses.

d. =. +. A. PRESIDENT
URGES ACTION ON
EDUCATION BILL

The President of the Delaware
State Education Association. Mr.
Charles p. Helm Of Laurel, has no.
titled teachers that the crisis in ed
ucatiOn in Delaware is not over. He
urged teachers to write their Sen
atOrs and Representative in SUD-
port of Senate Bill 472, also known
as the Taft-Hill Bill, which would
appropriate $3O0,OOO,0OO for feder-
al aid to education. This bill, rec
commended IN the Presidents bud
get, is a bipartisan proposal de-
signed to alleviate the financial cri-
sis in education and to equalize ed
ucational opportunity.
Mr.. Helm pointed out recent
court decisions, teacher shortages.
lack Of finances to meet current
costs, crowded schools. and the in
crease in real property taxes in
some districts as evidence of the
continuing crisis in education in
Delaware. He emphasized that both
laymen and teachers are increas-
ingly disturbed by these symptoms.
as may be seen in the sudden
growth of interest in lay education
al organizations and in teacher
groups in Wilmington and in New
Castle, Kent, and Sussex Counties.
The d. S. Z. A. President also re-
Quested teachers to communicate
with the officers and committee
members of the D. S. E. A. to make
known their wishes regarding leg
islatiOn in order that a report may
be submitted to the responsible
state officers for their considera-
ton before the preparation of the
budget on August Is.
In his letter, Mr.. Helm said that
the D. S. E. A. is attempting to es-
tablish program of action which
will promote better education for
the children of Delaware. The D.
S. E. A. has increased its dues to
$40 a member in order to employ
an executive secretary who will
guide the program and strive for
the improvement of education
throughout the state.
