State Farm Bureau
Convention Draws
5000 10 Baltimore
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

BALTIMORE, Jan. About
5000 Maryland farmers will move
into Baltimore over the week end
for the 34th annual convention OF
the Maryland Farm Bureau and
it's IA affiliated agriculture organ
izations.
Members of one affiliate, the
Maryland Poultry Council, have
been here for two days. Their
poultry exhibit opened Friday, and
business sessions were held today
Other affiliated organizations
will hold sectional meetings Mon
day.
The convention will get unde,
way tomorrow night with candle
light service.
Farm Bureau Day will be OBJ
served Tuesday. Speakers will be
Roger w. Fleming, national secre-
tary and treasurer of the Farm
Bureau Federation, and Murray D
Lincoln, president of the Farm
Bureau insurance companies.
Resolutions will be prepared on
20 topics. Among them will be one
opposing the Brannan farm SUD-
port plan, Bureau President VIII
son Heaps. of STREET., said.
Another resolution which nroh-
ably will get support from farm
ers will be one calling on the
Legislature to pass a law making
Standard Time mandatory. Farm
ers say they have no objection
to city dwellers going to work an
hour earlier, but they object to
tinkering with the clock.
Russell C. Halves of the Uni
versity of Maryland forecast in
a speech to the poultry men to-
day that farm income will drop
II per cent in 1850, and that the
producer win get less of the con-
sumer's dollar
The poultry men were con-
cerned chiefly with a current sur
plus in the broiler supply. To
offset the market glut. they pro-
posed to begin q campaign to
stimulate sales of poultry pro-
ducts in retail outlets, and at the
same time to stop production at
hatcheries on the Eastern Shore
for two weeks.
There also was a strong serti-
ment toward establishing parity
prices at less than "break-even"
levels. Such supports. advocates
explained, would protect produ-
GERS now riding a high-price
support gravy train"

Cutting Utility Bill Tax
Illegal, Alexandra
Councilman Insists

An Alexandria City councilman
yesterday challenged the legality
OF Mayor Franklin P. Backus'
plan for financing the 1850 city
budget.
The Mayor and three other
councilmen propose 5 per cent
utility bill tax instead of the 10
per cent levy fixed when the
budget was adopted. The lower tax
would raise about $4,000 less
than is needed for expenditures.
but City Manager Guy Ancell said
he believed cutbacks could be
made during the year to keep the
city out of the red.
Councilman Marshall j. Bever-
ley said the plan is illegal.
TT is nothing but deficit spend
ing, and we wouldn't have a
balanced budget" said Council
man Beverley.
State law requires the city to
adopt a balanced budget of esti-
mated expenditures and revenue
for each year. When the budget
was adopted a week ago based on
the 10 per cent utility tax, how
ever, councilmen agreed to try to
make reductions so the utility tax
may not be needed.
If the council would make the
budget cuts recommended by
Councilmen Leroy Bendheim, Roy
Bragg and myself and impose a
2-cent tax on the sale of ciga-
rettes we would have a surplus
instead of a deficit" said Mr..
Beverley.
He recommended the elimina-
ton Of $135,000 in capital i'm
provements, reduced welfare out
lays and cut for the registrars
Office, to lower the record $4,312.-
|312 1850 budget.
Meanwhile, citizens opposed te
the utility bill tax are circulating
petitions to be presented to Alex.
andria's representatives in the
State Legislature asking that they
refuse to introduce legislation au.
thorizing the tax. Both Senate,
Andrew Clarke and Delegate
Armistead Boothe have indicated
however, that they will support
the legislation. sgs 4

Bids Due Tomorrow
On Fruit Research
Unit at Winchester
SpeeioI Dispefeh 10 The sior

BLACKSBURG, Va, Jan. T.
Bids will be opened here Monday
for the first unit Of a new $685.
600 fruit research laboratory at
Winchester.
The bids cover a shop and ma
chine building. Expected to fol-
low next week is the release OF
funds for the main laboratory and
Office structure, estimated to cost
$500 Plans for this have just
been completed and bids are to be
asked in a matter of days.
Before the month is over plans
will have been completed, with
the aid Of a consulting engineer
who has just been called in, fol
an insectory and greenhouse. The
contract for this final piece o1
construction. rounding out the re-
search unit, should be let in
March.
There is every prospect that the
complete new laboratory will be
manned and In operation by the
end OF the year. The whole of
the project is under direction of
Virginia Institute of Technology.
The new research plant will stand
on a 10-acre tract fronting on
the east side of U. S. Route II,
Just south of Winchester.
The design of the laboratories
and other buildings provides for
an expansion of the force of SCI
entists who now are operating at
Winchester In collection of old
frame structures. There, since
1921, DR.. Walter S. Hough, an
entomologist. has been at work.
With him the past 20 years has
been DR.. A. B. Groves, a plant
pathologist.
Three years ago, when the con-
troll of orchard pests had doubled
the tasks of. the scientists, Mr..
c. H. Hill. an entomologist. was
added to the force. To come next
summer Is horticulturist. The
force OF assistants also is to be
enlarged.
Compared with the laboratory's
work Of five years ago the load
on the scientists has tripled. The
battle to control pests by means of
new insecticides requires many
more field trips and laboratory
tests.
The new laboratory site, will
have several acres not covered by
buildings. These will be used for
paintings. New varieties Of apple
trees. and of other fruits, will be
reared and observed.

This was the start of the debate
on reduction of the Army which
tied up the House in the Sixth
Congress (the one that moved to
Washington later in the year, for
more than two weeks.
The increase had been author

with France in which the Con-
stellation, under Capt. Thomas
Truxtun. captured the Insurgente
and silenced the guns of the Ven-
geance. Commissioners were
about to meet in Paris to settle
opposing claims. 5.
In opening the debate Mr..
Nicholas gave these figures: The
regular Army was 5000 men. The
addition authorized, but not yet
recruited, was 5000, bringing the
standing Army UP to $4,000.
The reason Mr.. Nicholas ad-
vanced for repeating the increase
was economy. He presented a

A jolly, af1able department store
customer pulled out his checkbook.
II don't know why I'm writing
this" he quipped, "it's no good" "
And the store clerk laughed
heartily with him.
But it wasn't any good, and it
bounced high-right into the
Metropolitan Police Department
Check and Fraud Squads mount
ing total Of bad check cases.
Now that the postwar bloom of
business is fading, storekeepers
are taking bigger chances, and
bad check artists. both profess
sional and amateur, are vigorously
at work. Check and Fraud Squad
statistics show there have been
nearly twice as many bad check
and fraud cases during the first
five months Of this fiscal year
than there were during the same
period in the 1949 fiscal year-410
cases to $50.
Upward Trend in Amounts.
When business was good, in
1914, 1945 and 1916, cases de-
clined. In 1914 there were 684
cases received totaling $76.534. In
1945, there were 500 cases,
amounting to s$74,941. while the
year 1916 had 538 cases, totaling
$50,861. Then the trend started
up, not 50 much numbers Of cases,
which fuctuated. but in amounts:
The fiscal year l947 brought sos
cases to the squad, equaling $70.-
554. In 1948, the number Of cases
jumped radically to 857, totaling
S117,252. Last year the number
Of cases dropped to $50. but with
$153,981 involved.
OF course. as Sergt. David A..
Higgins, head of the squad, points
out, there are more people In
Washington than ever before, rails
ing the number Of police cases,
but storekeepers are taking more
chances.
Deposit on Used Piano.
Take the case Of a IS deposit
on a 5000 used piano: The music
store here was anxious to make q
sale and cashed q $40 check Of
fered by a colored man who asked
for the piano. Out he strolled
with SIS dollars change in his
pocket and q bad check behind
him.
Here is the case Of . grocery
store clerk who gave q stranger
$67 for a 67-cent Treasury check"
said Sergt. Higgins. "She never
saw him before he asked to cash
the check. That's just foolish"
And. detectives added, the
crumpled old checks that bounced
two years ago, when business was
good and nobody cared. are being
brought in for police action. Some
are illegible. often written In
pencil and accepted that way at
the time.
One Of the squads prize ex-
hibits is check with q completely
illegible signature and no payee's
name at all. Where the writer's
name should have been was q
signature that looked like did
dleydee."
And they accepted and cashed
thatr" detectives exclaimed.
Fall in Three Categories.
Bad check artists, forgers and
other such frauds fall into three
main categories, Sergt. Higgins
and 'Sergt. John r. Luskey ex-
planned. First there are the weak.
foolish people who live only for
the present.
Maybe I can make this check
good sometime" is their only
thought if they have any.
Then there is the person who
goes "off the BEAM" like the wom-
an who found a check book in a
theater and started writing the
checks; or the girl who suddenly
embarked on q tWo-Week clothes

police last year to organize the

Then the police move in. The
Credit Bureau reports the Check

 Less than five hours after Leo- pold landed on Belgian soil, the two main opposition parties-the Socialists and the Liberals, -,de- manded that he abdicate. But in his radio address to the nation a short time later, the king gave no indication as to whether he in- tends to quit in favor of his son, Prince Baudouin, who came home with him.
