carried through Oregon, then
wound up with a 18th speech at
Pasco, Wash. near the Hanford
atomic plant.
For his closing speech the Pres
ident had to leave his train at
Wallula and drive 18 miles. He
was introduced at Pasco by Sen
ator Magnuson, Democrat. of
Washington, an administration
standby, who is up for reelection
this year. 1t was the first time
on this "non-political" trip that
the Introductory role has been
taken by an active congressional
candidate.
Senator Taylor, Democrat, Of
Idaho, who bolted his party to
run for Vice President on Henry
A. Wallace's Progressive Party
ticket in 1948, showed up at Boise
when the Presidents train reached
there. He got presidential hand
shake, q greeting-and nothing
more.
Second Man Aboard.
Senator Taylor was the second
man aboard Mr.. Truman's train
being preceded only by Repub-
lican Gov. c. A. Robins. After
the handshake, he entered the
presidential private car and sat
talking with others in the party
until the President had finished
his platform talk.
Newsmen familiar with political
tides in the Northwest said the
President did not do Senator
Taylor any harm by raising the
Columbia Valley Authority issue
in his Boise speech. The Senator
has advocated that.
Oregon went for Gov. Dewey in
1948 but that had no effect on
the crowds. At La Grande in a
rich lumber and farming area, a
man in the audience yelled out:
We're all Republicans up here. "
I'm out here to convert you
to the right way of living" the
President retorted, and the crowd
howled.

The La Grande talk left a lot

IOn Motion TO Dismiss
Milk Conspiracy Case

District Court Judge Alexander
Holtzof said today he planned u
act Monday on a defense motor
for acquittal of the Maryland anc
Virginia Milk Producers ASsocia-
ton; its Secretary-treasurer. B. B
Derrick, and seven Washington
area dairies charged with con-
spiracy to fix milk prices.
At the same time, the jurisi
urged opposing counsel to COM
plete their arguments on the mo-
ton today.
Judge Holtzoff made that an
nouncement during a lengthy ar
gument by Defense Attorney Will
liam E. Leahy. who represents Mr.
Derrick and the association.
Mr.. Leahy told the court that
the Government has failed to
prove "at any time" that there
was any arbitrary price fixing by
the defendants.
Cites $1,4OO Loss.
Mr.. Leahy charged that almost
any straw will be grasped at by
the desperate prosecution" tt
prove its charge of conspiracy.
The attorney noted that the as
'sociation during a shortage perioo
in the last war lost $1,400 a day
getting milk to the Washington
market. Then he added:
Does that sound like a con-
spiracy?"
The Government rested its case
yesterday afternoon.
Before resting, Robert Winn
special assistant to the Attorney
General, made a motion that the
documentary evidence he has sub
mitted should apply to all the de-
PENDANTS. Judge Holtzof said he
would grant the motion "only il
the Government has made a
prima facie case-which it ha:
not made yet"
Hooper Recalled.
After that, one witness was re-
called in attempt to clear up g
contradiction in his testimony
Then the court heard the Gov
ernment's final witness, William
w. Mayes, who runs the Colder
Rule Dairy on New Hampshire
avenue extended, in Montgomery
County.
The witness recalled was Will
liam B. Hooper, Office manager
of the association. Judge Holtz-
off, who requested that he take
the stand again. wanted him to
explain the difference between
his testimony before the grand
jury and his statement to the
court. He told the grand jury
Chestnut Farms-Chevy Chase
Dairy had a full supply" con-
tract with the association--that
is, that the association was to
give it it's full supply of milk
He testified in court there was
no such agreement.
Fails to Satisfy Court.
Mr.. Hooper tried to explain the
variance. When he had finished
Judge Holtzof said:
Il might remark that the
court is very dissatisfied by this
explanation. The evidence be-
fore the grand jury under the
law here cannot be taken as evil
dence in this case. 1t affects
only the witness credibility, and
it npossible for the court to dis
Ie-Srd the witness testimony en-
tirely."

81 Million Requested
In Contract Authority
To Push Atomic Plan
BY the Associated Press

With the Nations atomic pro-
gram going faster than expected,
President Truman has asked Con-
gress to let the Government sign
$87 ,650,000 in contracts now, in
stead of next summer.
The White House submitted the
request for additional contract
authority yesterday. without wait
ing for adoption of the budget for
the next fiscal year beginning
July l..
While the request came in the
midst of widespread speculation
about program for making hy-
drogen bombs-a super-explosive
far mightier than conventional
atomic bombs-there seemed little
reason to relate the two.
For one thing, the cost of an
H-bomb project has been unoffi-
cially estimated at from $780,
100000 to more than billion
dollars.
Fund Needed for Plant.
The White House said the au-
thority to let $87,650,0 900 worth of
contracts now is needed for an
atomic plant-expansion plan an
nounced last October.
The estimate, it was explained,
provides for the acceleration of
certain projects In the reactor de-
velopment program and initiation
Of some new projects"
Reactor- is the scientific name
for a power-producing atomic
engine. So far. work on such en-
gines Is still ip the experimental
and development phase. No
atomic engines, fueled with
uranium, are yet producing power
commercially nor are they ex-
pected to for some years.
Navy Interested in Program.
However, the reactor develop
ment program is of major in
terest to those who foresee atomic
power as means of propelling
ships. The Navy. seeking sub
marines of unlimited range and
capable of long voyages under the
seas surface. is keenly interested
in the reactor program.
In addition to requesting the
added contract authority, Mr..
Truman also asked for another
$7,000,000 to begin construction
of Tennessee Valley power facili-
ties to provide "the large guam
tity of additional power needed
for operation of a new atomic
energy facility" at Oak Ridge,
Tenn.
Also requested was $500 ,000, 900
for the Veterans Administration.
The President said this figure is
$89,000,000 higher than the
amount in his budget because of
"the continued rise in the number
of veterans receiving education
and training benefits" under the
CT bill.

benefits of $500 were awarded
in another case. Payments OF
I$3,750 were made in eight in
stances for education, home pur-
chases or other purposes.
The heroic college student is
Edwin T. Collins of Detroit, who
saved two friends during a DOR
mitory fire at the Gambler, Ohio
college.
Mr.. Collins was credited with
leaping AZ feet from a third
floor window to a fire escape plat
form after the other students had
been trapped.
He then steadied the ladder,
helping his friends reach the plat
form. Six students died in the
! blaze.

HOLIDAYS, festivals and spec
ial days of dedication have been
observed by the Jewish people
since ancient times. To every gen.
Grafton, the Hebrew festivals and
holy days have brought beauty,
cheer and hope. To Jews in every
land, holidays have served as con-
slant reminders of great person
alities and events in the 1000
years of Jewish history, as SYM
bols of lofty ideals, of religious
faith and as strong bonds uniting
all Jews.
1t is doubtful whether the Jew
ish people could have survived the
many centuries of prosecutions
and wanderings had they not been
so devoted to their festivals and
customs.
Thus we have a whole series of
special holy days dedicated to the
ideals of the Jewish heritage.
Achad Ha'am, the noted philoso-
pher of modern Zionism, said that
"more than Israel has kept the
Sabbath, it was the Sabbath which
has kept Israel"
This thought as applied to the
Sabbath might well include the
whole range of Jewish Observance
es the year around. The discipline
of observance was the spiritus'
armament which helped the Jew
ish people remain alive while their
prosecutors over the centuries
passed from the stage of history.
\
EACH HOLIDAY tells an i'm
portant story from the long and
eventful Jewish past. Passover re-
calls the Exodus from Egypt;
Shabuot is a reminder of the Civ
ing of the Ten Commandments
and brings back memories of the

agricultural life in ancient Pales-
tine.
Succot, the Feast of Booths, re-
counts the journey of the Israel
ties through the desert to the
Promised Land. Then there is
Chanukah recalling the successful
revolt of the Maccabees against
Hellenic oppression.
Purim retells the story of Ha-
mans efforts to destroy Israel,
and has been an eternal lesson
to all his successors through the
ages, up through Hitler of cur
rent history, that Israel is an
Eternal People. And so, while Gel
ebrating their holidays, Jews of
every age have felt themselves
links in the long chain of Jewish
history.
Now, while the various holidays,
festivals and fast days commem-
crate historic events, Rosh Hash
anah, the Hebrew New Year, and
Yom Kippur, the Day of Atone
ment, are purely religious occa-
sions, devoted to prayer and SER
ious thought, when Jews take
spiritual stock. While on most fes-
tivals the Jew seeks communion
with God through joy, on Rosh
Hashanah and Yom Kippur it is
sought through solmnity.
4 4
ALL JEWISH observances are
bound up with the experiences of
the Jewish people, but the He
brew New Year and the Day of
Atonement are dedicated to uni
versal lessons when all men and
all nations pass before God.
Hence, Rosh Hashanah and Yom
Kippur are known as the "Yamin
Noraim" = "The Days of Awe" f"
when all living things pass before
God like sheep before a shepherd,
to stand for their deeds of the
past year.
The Jewish New Year stands
out in definite contrast to the non
Jewish New Year. Rosh Hashanah
is observed without fanfare and
ostentation, hilarity or intoxica-
ton of the senses. It is a solemn
day, for it is day of reckoning.
1t is a day of judgment when
man faces his Maker. The reck-
oning or stock taking is not in
material acquisitions but in terms
of spiritual achievements.

Early last week U. S. High
Commissioner John J. McCloy dis
closed that the staircase of

Zone is made of Jewish tomb
stones. The staircase was con-
structed by the Germans during

moving the tombstones after the
war, the Germans merely scraped
off the Hebrew inscriptions thus

the stones.

New Chemical
Available For
Use On 0uack

TCA--a new chemical weed
killer-offers the best means for
eliminating small patches of
quackgrass in farm fields, says
DR.. c. J. Willard, professor of
agronomy at Ohio State Univer-
sity.
Trichloroacetic acid, commonly
called Tea, has given satisfact-
ory results in killing quackgrass
in Ohio since 1947. Although
there is still much to be learned
about its use, DR.. Willard be-
lieves many farmers may be in
terested in trying it this year.
He says blowing the quack-
grass and working the sod down
as for seeding and then applying
the TEA to the soil is the best
method of use. This procedure
has given near complete eradi-
cation from approximately so
pounds per acre of the CONNER
cially available TEA sodium salt.
Treatment appears to be most
effective when the soil is moist
and offers good growing condi-
tionS. If it is applied on dry soil,
there will be no killing effect
until rain carries it into the soil.
DR.. Willard adds that no prac-
tical rate of applying TEA will
eradicate quackgrass in one
treatment. Refreshments or
plowing, disking and cultivation
will be necessary to finish the
job.
While TEA will also kill John
son grass, nimblewill and Ber.
muda grass, there is not salts
factory methods yet developed
for applying it to Johnson grass
Bermuda grass and nimblewill
can be killed by methods similar
to those for quackgrass.
TEA is applied as a spray ir

Farm Elevators Do
Record Business

Farm-oWned elevators in Ohio
did their best year of business
in history during l949.
K. D. Peterson, extension mar
keting specialist at Ohio State
University, says the country ell
eVators handled record amount
of corn. This included a large
share of the 1949 crop, and a
great deal of the 1948 crop
which was too wet to market in
1948.
He anticipates, however, that
these same elevators will eXper-
ience a definite decline in bus
iness volume and income this
year unless managers make cuts
in expenses. Approximately go
percent of all elevator expense
is for labor.
