Today it has more than TOO.
1t wasn't until 1881 that a
church was built there. On June

then an archbishop. dedicated
the frame structure. The Rev.
Livy Vigilante was pastor at the
time.
In 1888 the church was torn
down and rebuilt at the present
site at Ridge. Md, 2 miles
from Scotland. The Rev. John
B. Gaffney was pastor. This
structure served until 1929, when
the present church was erected
during the pastorate of the Rev.
Gregory G. Kiehne.

ing for Coconino County, held in
Flagstaff, where plans were also
made to set up a Coconino County

Reports on the campaign which

the Leagues state office show that
the people are accepting the pro-

circulator reported that out of 100
persons contacted, only one refused
to sign the petitions.
The petitions sponsored by the
League are six in number. They
include: increase of unemployment
compensation to $25 for 26 weeks;
extending coverage of unemploy-
ment compensation to include agri-
cultural workers; repeal of the
States so-called "Right-to-Work'

hol beverage advertising.
It should be obvious to all, even
to the prohibitionists, that radio
and television keep the youngsters
at home-off the streets-and the
use of such programs should be en-
couraged, instead of discouraged.
The growth in social acceptance
of beer and ale is shown by a ma
tion-wide survey made in April 1949
by Crossley, ms, nationally known
research organization. This survey
reveals that there are one or more
beer drinkers in 69% of the approx
imately 100000 families in the
United States.
The Foundation is proud of it's
national advertising and of the high
character of the advertising of the
brewing industry as a whole. We
feel certain that you gentlemen in
your ultimate judgment will con-
cur with our view.
Finally, we submit that the pres
ent laws regulating the advertising
of alcoholic beverages in interstate
commerce are adequate. They pro-
hibit misleading advertising and de-
ception of the consumer. What
more could anyone demand....what
more could be required?
We are completely satisfied with
the administration of the Federal
Alcohol Administration Act by the
Bureau of Internal Revenue. The
act is administered by career men,
headed by Mr.. Carroll E. Mealey,
deputy commissioner. We often
differ with these officials but, as
you gentlemen so we'll know, when
a public official differs with you
that is the hallmark of good pub
lie official.
We see no necessity whatsoever
for any additional legislation and
we are advised by our Washington
attorney that in his opinion the
Congress has not constitutional au-
thority to enact any additional leg
islation such as that proposed in
S. 1847 or in the two bills, S. 1852
and S. 1865, on which this COM
mittee held hearings in the second
session of the 8Oth Congress.
In conclusion, gentlemen, I would
like to make this final observation.
We have noted that the prohibi-
tionists are filing petitions here
containing the names of people
from various states who favor this
legislation. Of course, this is at
the expense of the taxpayers. It
will be interesting to you, Mr..
Chairman, and the members of this
committee to learn that the brew
ing industry has petitions signed
by almost three million persons
who are opposed to such legisla-
,tion. However, we wish to save
the taxpayers money by not re-
questing you, Mr.. Chairman, to in
corporate these petitions in the
record of these hearings at time
when our government is so deeply
in the red.
I want to thank the Chairman
and members of the committee
for this opportunity to appear and
express our opposition to S. 1847
and now I would appreciate it if
the Chairman would permit our
Washington attorney to discuss
briefly the legal aspects of S. 1847.

Goren on Bridge

A rather unusual safety play was
executed against me not long ago
by my friend, William E. McKen-
new well-known authority on caro-
games.
The final contract of four hearts
was sound enough and the manner
of reaching it was quite interesting.
After South's response OF two hearts
North chose to rebid his very 1ne
spade suit rather than offer partner
a somewhat doubtful raise. South
chose to bid three diamonds, which
conforms to our tastes in the matter.
This was not intended as an ace.
showing bid, nor as psychlc, nor
was it part of any convention. IL
was simply that South had no alto
9ether suitable bid at this point. A
mere rebid of three hearts would not
be sufficiently aggressive and might
result in missing a game. ON the
other hand, a leap to four hearts
might prove disastrous II partner
happened to have a singleton In
that suit. The solution appeared to
be found in a temporizing bid. A
new suit by responder is one-round
force. so he bided his time with
call of three diamonds. North, OF
course, returned to three hearts ana
South proceeded to game.
I happened to be East and after
partner cashed two club tricks, felt
rather cheerful about it all, for there
seemed little doubt that could win
two heart tricks. At trick three, west
continued with a diamond. Though
the Jack held in dummy, declarer
overlook it with the ace and led the
two of hearts.
This unusual play protects de-
clarer against the loss of two trump
tricks regardless of the adverse dis
tribution and assures the safety OF
the contract in the absence OF a ruiz.
Declarer observes that he can lose
the hand only if all four hearts are
massed. If West has them the low
heart lead will hold him to one
trick. If East has them, as proved
to be the case, the jack is taken with
the queen. At this point my one hope
was that declarer had another club
so I led the ace. Declarer ruffed in
his own hand with the four OF
hearts, entered dummy with the
king of diamonds and on low heart
lead from dummy I was obliged to
split my sequence by playing the
nine. South won with the king, en-
tered dummy with spade and
picked up the 10 of hearts on a
finesse. The losing diamond was then
disposed of on dummy's good spade
1t will be observed that if declarer
makes the routine play of high
trump early in the play, he will find
it impossible to avoid the loss of two
heart tricks.

Uncle Ruy's Corner

During MS voyage across the
Atlantic, young Charles Darwin
suffered a great deal from seasick-
ness. He was glad, indeed, when he
felt the firm ground of Brazil under
his feet.
To be free from seasickness was
only a part OF the reason for his
feeling of pleasure In Brazil he
found birds, mammals and insects
which he never had seen before.
Whenever possible, he made trips
into the forests of Brazil. Once he
took part in hunting in the COM
pany of a Catholic priest, but for
the most part he spent his time
looking at the wild life in tangled
masses of trees and vines.
Spiders, wasps and ants were
among the insects he observed. He
watched a struggle between a large
spider and a wasp. Keeping out of
the reach of the spiders jaws, the
wasp stung the spider three times,
and dragged it away. Wasps of Ger
tain kinds often capture spiders
and take them to their nests as
food for young wasps.
AT another time an army of ants
made its way into an open space.
There were many thousands of ants
in the army, and creatures of the
forest were trying to escape. Dar-
win saw lizards, cockroaches and
spiders making their way across
the open space, as fast as they
could go.
Leaving Brazil, the Beagle
sailed southwark to Argentina,
then around the southern end Of
South America. Stops were made
along the way, and great deal
was learned about the customs of
natives, especially the Patagonians.
Going northward along the coast
of Chile, Darwin was pleased when
he could go ashore. One day, how
ever, strange thing happened
while he was lying down resting
in the midst of clump of trees.

started to shake. He rose to his feet
as soon as he could, but the ground
kept on shaking and he felt very
dizzy. The shaking lasted about
two minutes.
That was an earthquake, but it
was less violent where Darwin was
than inesome other parts of Chile.
Soon he went back to the vessel
and started sailing northward
again.

WASHINGTON, D. c. - Mother
Nature, has taken some of the heat
off the governments farm price sup
port program.
Nature. in the role of weather
and insects. has stepped in and
thrown an unexpected light on
the winter wheat crop prospects.
Instead of hundreds of thousands
of bushels headed for storage under
crop loans, prospects are that many
farmers may pay off their loans on
grain already in storage-because of
better prices due to an indicated
short wheat crop.
Should this be true, the price sup
port program will demonstrate its
value to the nation by having built
up stockpiles in time of plenty
against a time of possible short sup
ply.
The May crop report forecast
winter wheat crop of only 69O,000,-
900 bushels of wheat, or three-fourths
of last years 9O2,OOO,OOO bushels and
far below the 10-year-1939-48 a.
average of 758, 100000 bushels.
The board will report on spring
wheat in June, but already evidence
is appearing that spring wheat may
be as badly hit as the winter variety.
Floods in Minnesota and the Da-
kotas, and wet weather in Montana
have delayed planting.
The nation may thank its lucky
stars that millions of bushels of
wheat from the 1949 crop were
placed in storage under government
loans.

CONTINUE STORAGE LOANS

Meantime. USDA loans 10
farmers TO finance the construc-
lion or purchase of farm storage
facilities for grain and certain
other storable crops will be
available through June 80. 1884,
Under the program announced in
June, 1949, loans were to be avail
able only through June 80, 1850. But
extension of the program for an
other year is now deemed necessary
because of carry lovers into the 1880
81 storage period.
The farm storage facility program
is open to producers of wheat, corn,
oats, barley, rye, grain sorghums,
soybeans, dry edible beans and peas,
rice, peanuts, cottonseed and flax.
Through this program, the Com
modify Credit Corp. makes loans to
farmers for the purchase or construc-
ton of farm storage facilities in an
amount not to exceed IS percent of
the cost of the structure.
These loans, bearing interest at the
rate of 4 percent per year, are pay
able in five annual installments, or
earlier in the farmers option.
First installment on loan applica-
tons approved prior to July l, 1850,
will become due and payable Jan. 81,
1851. On loan applications approved
during the period July 1, 1850 to
June 80, 1851, the first installment
will become due and payable Jan.
81, 1852.
