.Truman's Luck

Despite President Truman's other
troubles with this congress, he has
had good luck so far on appropria-

Inmates which called for s1s.1 bill

Lunch Fund Aided

The house appropriations COM
mittee has recommended a direct
appropriation Of rs million dollars
for the school lunch program. Here
tofore this program has been fl
nanced out of Sec. 80 funds"
This fund has become more or
less a catch-all for those seeking
funds to finance some special agri-
cultural project. Section 80 of the
original agricultural act of 1885
provides for an annual appropria-
tion equal to 80 per cent of the
gross receipts from duties collected
under the customs laws to encour-
age expectation Of agricultural
products through export bonuses;
to encourage domestic consumption
Of agricultural commodities by di-
verting them from trade through
payment of benefits or indemnities
etc.
For instance, the potato support
program has been largely financed
from this fund, so action Of the
house providing that the funds shall
be used for the purposes intended
and not for the school lunch pro
gram or other programs is gooc
news to the farm groups who have
long opposed tampering with the
fund, although accepting its ap
preparations when they were no
forthcoming from any other source

Crotalaria is resistant to root

is one Of its big advantages as a
