RED FACES:
In PentagOn

There were red faces in the
Pentagon building, seat of army
bureaucracy. A citizens committee
had declared fatty that the nations
military establishment is ''cumber-
some and costly" despite reported
unifcation.
The members speculated that
Russia might be trying to achieve
victory by bankruptcy in forcing
the United States into constantly
increasing military expansion.
THAT APPRAISAL came from
committee of the Commission on
Organization of the Executive
Branch of Government, established
by the last congress. Former Presi-
dent Herbert Hoover heads the
whole commission, Ferdinand Eber-
stadt, New York financier, is chair
man of the unit reporting ON ma
tional security. Other members in
clude educators, newspapermen and
business executives.
The committee said that while
unifcation had made the United
States far better prepared. the cost
of defense preparations were
alarmingly high in terms of money.

The agency making the mistake

there was speculation it stemmed

that the army had somehow lost

DUTCH MARINES had forged to
the outskirts of the Republican

chief Republican city on that island

vasion, the Dutch termed their ac-
tivities police action" Well ahead
of their timetable, the Dutch had
effected advances with practically
no bloodshed.
International diplomats turned
eyes toward Washington where the
United States had been formally
asked to grant political and eco

lie. The Indonesian minister had
further asked serious consideration

The Dutch announcement on the

GOOD NEWS:
about Food

Out of the welter of news of bad
things that might happen, came
good news of food-among them re-
port of prospects of lower prices
during 1949.
FOR INSTANCE, various food au-
thorities predicted that increased
food supplies would reduce to some
extent the cost of setting the ma
tons tables in the coming IL
months. Comments to this effect
were forthcoming from the annual
food-industry-review issue of the
National Grocers' bulletin, a publ
cation of the National Association
of Retail Grocers.
Too, various indexes of wholesale
prices showed the food-price level
declining.
In the grocers' bulletin, Agricul-
ture Secretary Brannan said:
1.-The United States has entered
the door of the year of plenty" I"
FOOD RETAILERS added rosy
tints to the picture with the obser-
walton that prices, besides declining
slightly. would be more stable in
1859 than they have been in the
postwar years.
Breadwinners and householders
greeted the news warmly. Both
could stand a lot of price slashing
as an ease in such other aggravat-
ing problems as automobile and
housing shortages, dwindling dollar
value in other fields, drafting of the
nations youth and threats to peace

TAFT:
Main EUent

Ohio's U. S. Sen. Robert A. Taft,
longtime big wheel in Republican
party affairs, conceded in a talk
with capital newsmen that he faces
a fight for his political life in 1856.
TO ONE newsman who asked if
he had any ideas Of seeking the
presidency in 1852, Taft replied, II
am going to run for the senate two
years from now. Frankly, my eyes
can't see a thing beyond Novem-
Der 2, 1950-or whatever the date
is. It's going to be a major con-
test"
Taft was only admitting what all
Ohio politicians have known and
all labor people are saying. To
them, the only question remaining
is who his Democratic opponent
will be.
TAFT RECALLED that he had
''read some place that labor has
three million dollars to spend, and
they probably will spend one mil
lion in Ohio"
Standing firm on issues which
may ultimately drive him out of
the senate, Taft served definite no.

any administration move to repeal

Cut dairy
Grain Costs

Some Benton county dairymen
probably can save $40 or more
per cow in feeding costs next
winter, County Extension Agent
Frank Webster reported. That is,
he pointed out, if the individual
dairyman put up high quality
legume hay and grass silage this
summer.
I'm these times of lowering
milk prices dairy farmers. must
be on the lookout to cut produc-
ton COSTS" he added. "If they
are feeding good legume hay
and grass silage they don't need
to pay so much for high protein
grain feed"
He said cows that get high
quality legume hay and grass
silage need only a II to 13 per.
cent protein grain mixture In.
stead of the more usual 10 per
cent. That means a chance to
save because more oats and bar.
ley can be used. They cost less
than, the 16 per cent protein.
dairy feed. .,..
In a particular case last year
a dairyman paid Ss5 per ton for
16 per cent dairy feed. In his
area barley was going for $50
a ton and oats for about the
same figure, so the IL or Ii
per cent protein grain mixture
could have cost the dairyman
about $13 less per cow than the
16 per cent feed.
For the 90 cows on his farm
he could have cut his feed costs
$500 to $500 for the winter just
by this one operation.
The agent explained that the
IL or ID per cent protein grain
could have been mixed in this
way: 200 pounds of 16 per cent
could be combined with 100
pounds of barley and 100 pounds
of oats. This could have made
the grain cost S72 per ton, saw:
ing $13. "A good dairyman feeds
his cows about a ton of grain
during the winter. By multiply
ing the number of cows in
herd by the $13 saving per ton
a dairyman can estimate his to-
tai savings in one winter.
