by the Asseelafsd Press

DETROIT, April 9.-Police pored
over Detroit's hospital records to-
day in hopes Of finding a clue to
the whereabouts of missing Rus
sian born auto worker.
Officers said they were not dis
missing the possibility that 4S-
year-old Costan Covaluk might be

Covaluk's room disclosed blood
spots on the floor and on cloth
ing. Police also found $1,000 in

book with a balance Of $4,000.
The Ford worker lived alone
for the last IL years in Detroit
boarding house. Friends said he
brooded because he was unable to
send money to his parents, still
in the Ukraine.

Saltwater, N. Y. arrived to help
the hunt. He has claimed his
nephew's personal effects.
Officials at the Ford Co. said

Anderson Sees Merit
In Farm Proposal, But
Defers Endorsement
By Malcolm Lomborne, Jr.

Senator Anderson, Democrat, of
New Mexico yesterday predicted
that the administrations new
farm proposals will grow in favor
as they become more thoroughly
understood" but the former Sec
retary of Agriculture withheld his
Endorsement OF the far-reaching
plan.
Senator Anderson said he hoped
Secretary of Agriculture Brannan
soon could tell Congress how much
the program will cost and ac-
cordingly "allay the fears OF some
of the members"
Senator Anderson's statement,
which was distributed to reporters
through Agriculture Department
sources, contained this observa-
ton:
"On second reading of Secre-
tary Brannan's recommendations
I am struck by the fact that they
grow in attractiveness and inter-
est as they are studied"
Backs Fair Income Standard.
The former Truman cabinet
member said he had not indorsed
the program "as yet because I
want to study 1t thoroughly and
to see that the Congress has the
opportunity to study 1t also" Sen
ator Anderson added that this
does not mean that do not in
dorse his goal of decent stand
ards of farm income-because
I do"
Il particularly support his en-
phasis on using what our farms
produce" he declared. Best of
all, he not only seeks to improve
the lot of our farm population but
he counts consumers in as BEN
ef1ciaries of a farm program.
Mr.. Brannan outlined the pro-
gram to Congress Thursday. He
proposed doing away with the
parity system Of determining farm
prices and to offer production
payments" For instance, the
consumer price of perishable
foods such as meat, milk, eggs and
vegetables would be permitted to
drop at will-to the advantage of
conSumers-and the Government
would pay farmers the difference
when the price was below an es-
tablished minimum.
Lawmaker Blasts Program.
Meanwhile, the Brannan pro-
posals brought a blast from Rep
resentative Shafer. Republican. of
Michigan. He told the House it
is nothing but the old shell game
brought up to date to fool the
American people"
Mr.. Shafer called on Republican
members to counter this bold,
pernicious, bald-faced attempt to
buy millions of votes with public
money by calling this proposal
what it is in every speech. every
letter and every statement issued
during the coming months"
He added: 1t would be far more
logical and efficient to adopt So
cialism than to follow a slow.
gradual course of strangling our
free economic society. It Is the
first step-and a long step-to-
ward a collective economy"
Brannan to Appear Tomorrow.
Mr.. Brannan may give some
idea of the cost to the taxpayer
when he appears tomorrow before
the House Agriculture Committee.
A department spokesman said
experts were working both on the
cost question and on specific leg
islation to carry out the program
which has been termed variously
as bold" and Startling"
The secretary prepared in the
meantime to take to-the air to
explain how his program would
work. He is to speak tomorrow
at 9:45 pm. in a national hookup
of the American Broadcasting Co.
He also will be interviewed today
at 6:45 pm. by Ed Hart on Sta
ton WWDC,

A Short Story

a ShO1l Story
ME chances are you never heard of Joan Fowler
Il She's gone and forgotten, yet only two years ago
the crowds were fighting to get into the Purple Cat
in Greenwich Village where she was singing Then it
happened which just goes to show. You're always
hearing of beautiful girls with lovely figures who get
into jams from being dumb or something To read the
papers, you'd think plain girl was as sensible as an
insurance company. But when one of those quiet
eyed little things finally turns loose and swings she
can make bigger wreck of her life than a papeful
of tabloid beauties
Which brings me back to Joan Fowler The first
heard of her was in Benny Murdock's Broadcay Talk
column. He wrote For something new that doesn't
get old. try the songs of Joan Fowler at the Purple
Cat on Ninth. Duke Benton, who used to have his
own band, does pleasant job at the piano."
HEADING that, knew Duke had reached the end of
his rope playing background piano. I'd known him
since we were in college. He'd worked his way
through with fve-pece outfit that played for the
worst student dances. Oh, he had nice face and
smile, but Duke wasn't smart In band business
you're smart or dead before morning His band made
little splash after college, but the war came along
and before Duke could figure anything out, he was
riding bomber.
Later he put together trio that played around
Times Square, but it folded and Duke dropped out of
sight. Now here he again, with singer who was
getting good plugs So the next night looked in at
the Purple Cat. l didn't mind saying hello But
had another idea, too Lucy Linden was sounding
like frog on my broadcasts, and old man Phillips,
my sponsor. was making noises about shifting to a
different kind of show.
Duke was drinking coffee Hello, son." said.
'Hows it been 50 long?"
Hello. Chick" he said after moment. Taking
busman's holiday?"
Just dropped in" Then he introduced us: Chick
Malone, Joan Fowler. And to show how she hadn't
been around my name didn't mean thing. She Just
smiled, and it was time for more songs The Joint
got pin-drop quiet.
HE first minute didn't feel thing. Her voice was
soft, muted with awkwardness. But then my ears
started double-take. That voice of hers once it
touched deep - was as warmly shy as whisper of
love, and its awkwardness made you think of girls
fnst KISS. She seemed to sing from her SOUL
She was plain as wall All her beauty was in her
shining dark eyes, and her eyes were breathessy
happy. Anyway. stayed until closing time and gave
them ride uptown where Joan was living in meat
and-potato hotel on the West Sde Neither one was
getting rich at the Purple Cat.
You were lucky to find her." said after we'd let
Joan out. She's it,"
Yes" Duke said quietly. He was looking down al
his left hand. His face was tired He was washed up
and ne knew it. 1t was clear as picture
l tried to make little talk, mainly about my
broadcasts on the Phillips Perfume Hour and the
teevision deal had cooking, but Duke didn't say
much
Inc next morning Bacon phoned. He was the adver-

NYLoN PAINT STRAINER

The other day the painter showed
up with nylon stocking sticking out
of his pocket. When I joshed him
about it, he said his women folks
had a standing order to turn all
nylons with runs over to him so he
could split them lengthwise and use
them for straining paint. A square
tied over the mouth of a can makes
the finest kind of a strainer to take
out the lint and sediment of partly
used paint.

SIMPLE WIRE REEL

B. H. writes: 9Here is my way of
making a simple power wire reel.
Take-a discarded 50-gallon oil barrel
and bolt it to the real wheel of a
tractor with two or three brackets II
with two rods running from a 2 by
6 on the outer end through the bar
rel and fastened to the wheel spokes.
Jack UP that wheel and run tractor
in reverse so that the wire will wind
on top of the barrel so it lifts off
the ground more. When wire is all
rolled up, drive tractor where you
want your next fence, jack up wheel
again and put in neutral and pull
wire off. Put on brake slightly if
it rolls too fast. BY this method you
can roll on $50 rods of wire and In
roll it again in a short time"
Note by I. VI. D.-Seems to me it
would be quite a job to pull even
30 rods of barb wire by hand to I'M
roll it. By starting to unroll at one
end and driving to the other end,
you would have about half the 80
rods unrolled. Then you could jack
up the wheel and pull the rest off.
You could partly roll it up without
pulling by the reverse operation.

soted corner and second posts and
braces are put in and anchored, and
it pays to have them just as near
perfect as possible. The brace
should be put in and anchored as
shown either horizontal or the cor
ner end a few inches lower than the
other.
The second or brace post should
be anchored with a disk blade put
in the bottom of the corner post
hole, with at least a %-inch rod com
ing up above the surface of the
ground and fastened through the
disk anchor and with two to four
strands of galvanized wire from the
rod eye UP to and around the brace
post and frightened so the corner
post leans slightly backwards, but
so the pull of the fence will just
bring it vertical.
