Feeder Cattle
Prices Expected
To Remain High

No sharp decline in feeder cat
tie prices is expected this fall,
say extension economists at Ohio
State University.
This may come as bad news to
many, Ohio feeders who have
been waiting hopefully that feed
er prices would drop when the
fall movement of range cattle ap-
proaches the peak.
Record supplies of feed grain
in prospect for the 1949-50 feed
year, however, indicate another
strong demand for replacement

areas where grain storage facii-

Thousands Of Ducks
Reported Resting At
Marshall DierSen Refuge

Just about twenty miles from
the heart of Washington is one
of the best waterfowl refugees on
the Eastern Seaboard. It's the
Marshal Diersen refuge. Only 10
months old, the 40-acre tract-in
the words of a Game and Inland
Fish Commission officials
crowded" with mallards, black
ducks, teal and wood ducks.
In fact, said Malcolm E. King,
director of publicity, "I'll bet there's
as many birds in the Diersen Pre-
serve as there are in the thousands
of acres at the Blackwater refuge
on the Eastern Shore"
The tract, on the Potomac River
in Montgomery County, was built
in eight days by a three-man crew
under Kings direction. Using
bulldozers, they created ponds of
five and 10 acres and planted 10
acres of the remaining land in mil
let, corn and other food plants.
The total cost was 81, 800 which
included everything but the land
itself. That was donated by the
Diersen family.
Anybody with a camera can
have a wonderful time up there"
Mr.. King said.

barley per acre. Young Schmidt
has now returned to full-time
farming, and hopes to put into
operation on his parents farm
many of the practices he observed
abroad.
Oscar found that almost all
Dutch farms, with the exception
Of the very poorest are electrified.
One of the families with whom he
stayed and worked owned an auto
mobile and both had vacuum
sweepers. He stated that few
farms use ice boxes or refriger-
ators, however, since most of the
perishables are stored in cold
cellars.
The Dutch people have definitely
different habits in different sec
tons of their country he said, but
one "potato meal" and two "bread
meals" day is a standard pattern.
The potato meal", which is served
at noon, is the one hot meal of the
day. Meat is very scarce and still
rationed, and milk, cheese, and
potatoes form the basis for their
meals.
Young Schmidt reports that the
experience he enjoyed most was
seeing the dykes and the retaining
of ground from the sea. This land
is desperately needed for farming,
for Holland is the most thickly
populated country in weste
Europe. About 10000 young
farmers are looking for farms, and
many of these are immigrating to
Canada, Australia and New Zea-
land.

Farmers Warned
Against Fake
Barn Painters

Farm owners are warned to be
on the lookout for barn painters
travelling in trucks, who offer to
spray or paint barns with high
grade paint at low rates.
The Better Business Bureau of
Baltimore advises that it has re-
ceived information that swindlers
have been travelling in Ohio and
Indiana in groups of two's and
three,s, and that they have obtained
jobs of painting many barns at
prices ranging from $500 to
$4,000. These fake painters had
cans of good quality paint
in their trucks and referred TO
same when getting the jobs. If
the farmer didn't stand over them
and watch them mix and apply the
paint they would substitute mix
lures of kerosene, old motor oil,
and red brick powder and carbon,
which looked bright and attractive
when freshly applied, but which
washed off after a few rains fell.
In some instances these crooks
painted barn roofs and sides with
an aluminium" paint. The "alu-
minum" paint which they used was
so thoroughly watered with kero-
sene it started to run off the roof
and sides after the first rain.
In one instance they used paint
cans upon which were labels indi-
eating that they were from a COM
pany in Columbus, Ohio. An in
vestigation disclosed that there
was no such company in Columbus.
The Better Business Bureau of
Baltimore wants every farmer APP
preached by such travelling painters
to write to the Bureau, giving such
details as names of the painters,
make and kind of trucks used, and
descriptions of the men seeking the
painting work. The Bureau will
make an investigation for anyone
and report back the facts obtained.

had to move to let him pass.
Then he brought the audience
to 1882, when a one-room
school was established in
Damascus. Here he recalled
Mrs. Byrtle Bates attended
school as a little girl. She re-
turned to her home town some
years later to take up the teaching
profession and to endear herself to
a host of boys and girls-the par
ents and even the grandparents of
the boys and girls of today.
DR.. Boyer also spoke highly of
John T. Barker whose good influ-
ence and leadership as teacher in
the community caused his memory
to be held in much esteem.
In 1909, the first high school for
Damascus was built. The class of
1884 presented a picture of Mr..
Baker to the school. Mrs. Roscoe
Buxton presented this picture
again, feeling that it should have
its place in the new High School
now under construction.
Maxwell Burdette then became
the historian. Beginning in 1921, as
a student in the Damascus High

School, he made striking contrast
between our present enrolment,
size of faculty, transportation by
bus, cafeteria and library services
with the facilities available twenty
eight years ago. Education in Dam
ascus has made great strides, but
still has unmet problems. Among
these problems, Mr.. Burdette stat
ed are:
l. "A better insight into the emo
tional conflicts in children.
2. Character development.
8. Adequate funds for education.
A. Closer cooperation between
parents and teachers.
Mr.. Burdette's place was then
taken by a group of young people,
those who expect to make teaching
their future profession. Certainly
the audience had the feeling that
education in Damascus would con
tinue to go forward, as they listen
ed to the talks from this sincere
and attractive group of young peo-
pie. This group was organized a
year ago by Miss Nora Frances
Lynch. Such organizations are be-
ing sponsored by many schools all
over the country to create interest
and to lead young people into the
teaching profession.
The program closed with many
old friends expressing their appre-
citation to DR.. Boyer and to Mr..
Burdette for their interesting talks
ard to the Future Teachers for
their excellent help.
Nine tickets were made available
for tour of the United Nations
Assembly at Lake Success. Those
planning to attend are:
Gay Harding, Patsy King, Mary
Ann Ward, Herbert King, Harold
Mullinix, Jr., Mr.. and Mrs. Her.

Arab League Agrees
On Security Treaty
BY the Assoeiofed Press

CAIRO, Oct. 29.-The seven
nation Arab League agreed today
on collective security pact with
unified supreme command and a
pledge of mutual defense.
A senior Arab statesman, who
refused to be quoted by name, said
the pact will include these three
major points:
1. Establishment Of q military
general staff. Representation will
be partially on the basis Of the
size Of each Arab states military
force.
2. Uniflcation Of all arms, uni
forms and phraseology.
3. A mutual defense clause call
ing on all the other states to enter
any war in which an Arab state
is engaged.
So far agreement has only been
on the broad points of the pro-
posed pact. The details will be
worked out later.
Such a defense network, II it
does not become enmeshed in the
Palestine issue, would provide
more effective potential allies for
the Western powers In any con-
f1ict with Russia, diplomats here
said.

Commons 10 Finish
New Curbs on Power
OF Lords Tomorrow
BY the Associated Press

LONDON. Oct. ga final
swipe of the Laborite scissors will
clip the powers of Britain's House
of Lords Monday.
The noblemen's chamber of
Parliament thereafter will be able
to delay laws only for one year.
Now they can hold up legislation
for two.
This is the biggest change In
Britain's unWritten constitution
since all women were given voting
powers 81 years ago. The heavy
Labor majority in the House of
Commons-the dominant body of
Parliament-will push it through.
Balk at Nationalizing Steel.
The move will make way for the
Labor governments bill to social
ize the iron and steel industry
before its five-year term ends next
July. The Lords, most of whom
are Conservatives, went along on
other state ownership measures,
but they balk at socializing steel.
These twin bills-to scissor the
power of the peers and nationalize
steel-have occasioned the bitter
est British political battle since
Prime Minister Attlee's Labor re-
gime took Office in July, 1945.
A heavy opposition vote-per-
haps equalling the 222 scored on
no-conhdence amendment this
WEEKS expected. But it can
not stop the bill to limit the
power Of the Lords. The heavy
Labor majority is stoutly behind
the measure and already has
passed it twice.
The Lords have twice rejected
the bill. But when the Commons
passes 1t in three successive ses-
sions-and Mondays vote will be
the third passage-it becomes law
anyway. This was a procedure
set up in 1911, when the Lords
were a target of David Lloyd
Georges liberals.
2-Year-Old Veto Held Necessary.
The Conservatives insist the
two-year veto is necessary to stop
hasty legislation. They cite, for
instance, a recent bill to abolish
capital punishment. The House
passed the bill, the Lords amend
ed it to keep the death penalty
and when it came back to the
Commons, the Commons accepted
the amendment.
Epithets like "jiggery pokery,"
political jobbery" and shady
political deal" have been hurled
by Winston Churchill and other
Conservatives at the Laborite bill.
But the government takes this
view: The Lords are not elected,
heredity is their only right to
power, and they should not be al
lowed to defy the will Of the
elected connmoners
