Monday Meeting

The installation of officers was
taken up. Mr.. krauss installed
the new officers and gave them a
word OF advice for the following
term to come.
We had minute pause for
those who passed away. and Mr.,
Bill Schneider was asked to sue
ceed his father in his job, which
Mr.. Schneider accepted.
Another important thing was
that Youngstown, O. asked for
the 1851 Saengerfest. which was
given to them.
As yet the 1852 Convention is
not settled, but by the Saenser-
Test. everything will be definite.
I'm hoping that in the near fu
ture. we will be able to see ou1
different sections grow and alsc
get the Younger people interested
That is what we need--new face:
and the old ones back. SO let's al
pull together, and what we pu'
into a thing we will get our re
ward returned in many ways.
We can all say the convention
and the concert were success
And the women of CLEVELAND
West should have a bouquet 10,
the wonderful meals. They Wer,
really very good.
AS can be said, good time wa
had by all. We all went hom
tired but happy.

LETTER FROM BERLIN
BY Oh (Capt.) J. H. Deutsch-
laender
Dear Friends {:


Ever since | have arrived in Ber-
lin, l have thought of sending
you a report of our journey thus
far: but with all the confusion
and preparations that perplex a
stranger in a strange land, my
thoughts were never put down on
paper. However, | have been
thinking so much of all Of you
dear people back home. that to-
night I am shutting my ears, and
opening my heart to you, SO that
YOU may share some of our ex-
periences.
1t is only 5 weeks since | brush
ed aside the last tears OF the
,farewells" in Cleveland. but so
much has transpired that it seems
much much longer.
The steamship "Nieuw Anster-
DAM OF the Holland American
line, was to 60 first to La Havre.
then to Southampton, England.
and lastly to Rotterdam where
we were to disembark. However,
since the news came that there
was a dock-workers strike in Rot
terdam. we had to get off at La
Havre. | had hoped to see a
glimpse OF England, and also to
see Ray Milland (who was a
passenger) get off at Southamp-
ton-hut since the Rotterdam
passengers had to leave ship IN
France, | missed seeing both. \
special trench train took on all
Rotterdam passengers. he Il
hour trip was most unCOmtortabl e
hot, dirty and no drinking wa
ter. All the train had to offer was
warm beer and wine. and that was
cut off after the first 5 hours OF
the II hour trip. This experience
has somewhat soured my love for
the French. but then | Shouldn I
let first impression form any opln-
ions. Children were crying for
water. and | felt like crying with
them. During that afternoon, we
saw ; countries. France. Belgium
and the Netherlands, or Holland.
EVervtlme we crossed a border,
there were agents to examine our
passports. and ask how much
money and purchases we had
brought in from the preceding
countries, on route. All IN all this
train ride was very uncOmtort-
ably, compared to the lovely
steamship voyage. and could have
been avoided, had we been able
to proceed to Rotterdam by
steamship. OF the lodging we nm
allv got at Rotterdam, when we
arrived there at midnight, | shall
not even talk about, as the chills
run down my spine when think
OF it now. At six next morning
We caught a train tOr Utrecht,
and from thence TO Bremen. But
as we enteredGermany atBenheln
we had to all get off the train Tor
the German examination OF pass
ports. They believe in exercise, SO
instead of agents boarding the
train, the passengers took a walk.
After going throug the mill be-
fore several agents, and a delay
Of ; hours, we were permitted to
proceed to our destination, name
". Bremen for us. After 3 day
stav in Bremen. while awaiting
orders to enter Berlin, we tnal-
" arrived in Berlin on Sunday
morning (by Military traln) Au-
gust 9th. Incidently we and one
Sergeant, were the only passeng'
ers on this train into Berlin. We
received temporary quarters in an

THE Conference on the problems
L of the aging has emphasized
what many in and out of industry
have long believed, namely, that
the arbitrary fixing Of age limit
for retirement is unsound. We
cannot afford to lose the 7 to go
of our effective manpower which
our present method loses for US.
Other criteria for retirement must
be found. Methods Of stepping
down gradually from full capacity
to less exhausting contribution
to the labor total must be devel.
oped.
Speakers at the Conference ems
phasized the shock to the individ-
ual of enforced retirement at q
given age. Much was said Of the
need of sound program for de-
veloping constructive interests
with new mental and physical
skills in preparation for, as we'll
as after retirement. Such pro-
grams as are carried on both at
Cleveland College and at Fenn
should be in every community.
New interests and skills would
cushion the shock and give the
country the fruits of continuing
effective man and woman power
with a somewhat lessened burden
upon the tax payer. Best Of all it
would keep hope and courage and
self assurance alive in the minds
and hearts of an ever larger group
of people. To be thrown out as
useless is a heart-breaking exper-
fence at no matter what age. To be
so disposed of arbitrarily when
there is still definite capacity is
devastating. As we increase the
life expectancy we must-and we
will--lengthen the years Of pro-
ductiveness and open new fields
Of joyous living, as we'll as creat-
ing further opportunities for our
youth.

OHIO FB TAKES VOTE

What goes on in Washington
and what happens at home can
often appear 10 be as far apart
as the poles
During May delegation of farm
ers representing the Ohio Farm Bu-
reau Federation made an annual
pilgrimage to the nations capital
From what Secretary Brannan told
them, the feeling got around that
the Ohio FB leaned toward the
Brannan program-a position in di-
rect contrast to that of the Ameri-
can Farm Bureau Federation, the
national organization
Brannan indicated to the Ohioans
that he felt the national FB leader
ship did not represent the thinking
of the rank and file membership.
President Truman also invited the
Ohio farmers to the White House and
smiled on them.
But shortly after the Ohio delega-
ton returned home, the Ohio Farm
Bureau released a poll of its MEN,
bers on farm programs.
Results: 81 percent favored the
principles of the present farm pro-
gram which has American Farm Bu-
reau support; "a percent wanted no
government plan at all, and only IA
percent supported the Brannan plan.

PLANE AND pLOw

The airplane has definitely be-
come farm implement. along
with plows. tractors. combines
and hoes. The Civil Aeronautics
authority has contracted with
the Texas Agricultural and Me-
chanical college TO design and
build a special agricultural
plane.
Jointly sponsoring the project are
the National Flying Farmers, the
U. S. department of agriculture,
Texas A & M, and CAA. Plans for
the plane will be furnished at cost
to anyone wanting to build an air
plane for farm use.
A recent CAA survey disclosed
there are rs different civilian uses
for aircraft besides carrying passen-
gers and cargo.
CAA has issued a safety manual
for flying farmers, entitled "Protec-
ton of Pilots Against the Potential
Hazard of Poisoning by Agricultural
Chemicals 1t also has prepared a
code of ethics for farm pilots.

LOANS. NOT LOSS

The CCC legislation. now in
the record books as the major
farm law of the 1850 session of
congress. permits the price sup
port agency 10 borrow an addi-
tiona1 S2.0oo.0oo.0o0 from the
treasury.
Before this law, this authority had
been limited to $4,750, 00O, 900, but
about $4,0OO,00O 900 of this amount
had already been invested in the
program.
Half of this money represents
loans to farmers on storab1e COM
modities such as wheat, corn, cot
ton, rice, peanuts and tobacco. The
remainder represents the amount
CCC has paid for commodities, either
storable or semi-perishables, ac-
quired in price support operations.
Some opponents of price supports
like to leave the impression that this
is "lost" money, but CCC came out
remarkably well during the last war
when money it had invested in sup

ported commodities came home to
roost when the commodities were
badly needed.
With less than $1,000,O 100000 of
its present borrowing authority
available for commitment on 1850
loan programs, the agency requested
the additional $2,000,O00,000.
Secretary Brannan took the posi-
ton. that congress would have to APP
prove the additional amount before
he could authorize further commit
ments.

Senate SHES at Farm
Import Control Issue

EE1SxTkN13ar81kNzx1xGz9

WASHINGTON, D. 'C.-The slim
margin by which the United States
senate finally approved legislation
adding $4,000, 100000 to Commodity
Credit Corp. funds strongly empha-
sized congressional shakiness over
some of the ramifications of the farm
price support program.
Although the vote which end
ed In a IS TO IS tie-requiring
Vice President Barley 10 break
in favor of the legislation-was
not test of congressional sem
timent on farm supports. il was
straw in the wind.
The vote was on a technical mo-
ton to put the senate firmly on rec
ord in favor of providing greater
controls over imports of agricultural
commodities which compete with
those produced in this country that
are under supports and in surplus.
Originally, the senate had voted
to do this, but the proposal-at the
insistence of the state department,
where thinking is more in terms of
foreign RELATIONSHIPS watered down
considerably.
The subsequent battle gave OPP
ponents of the entire farm price sup
port program something to grab on
to in their efforts to discredit it.
And voting with them to send the
measure back for further study were
many senators who are strong sup
porters of domestic price supports,
but who are firm in their belief that
the boat is being rocked by farm
imports which can undersell the u S.
produced and supported commodity
even after payment of a tariff.
The controversy might have
rocked on for considerable time if
the final vote for greater regulations
over imports had been more one
sided.
But it was a simple, although UNI
usual act for Vice President Barley
to step down from his presiding of
ficer's chair in the senate to cast
deciding administration vote that
broke the tie.
Had the state department not
made an issue of the original import
proposal voted by the senate, it is
hardly likely that the opponents of
the farm price support program
could have ever brought about the
They were given strong talking
point when they could call atten-
ton to imports of farm products
which, even after payment of duty,
could sell below domestic price sup
port levels.
