Old Dobbin has officially taken the
count. Organized in 1920 "to aid and en-
courage the breeding, raising and use of
equine stock" the Horse Association of
America has decided to terminate its ex-

pounds of beef 9 pounds of veal, 4 pounds
of lamb and mutton and 70 pounds of pork,
reports the American Meat Institute For
1850 it is estimated that per capita consump-
ton will be about the same for beef, veal,
lamb and mutton and about rs pounds in
the case of pork, making a total of 153
pounds, as compared with lat in 1949
Your duty (as farmers) is to consider
all proposals the question of farm price
supports, fully-with as little bias as pos
sible-and then make up your minds on
the fundamental issues involved rather than
on the basis of political beliefs, or what
somebody else thinks, or of epithets -

larger than at present. Good teachers will be

Subsidies Costly
m WASHINGTON


DROBABLY no one man knows
1 how much the taxpayers of the
United States pay out annually in
subsidies. The amount, however,
runs to well over a billion dollars
each year and the subsidies run
the gamut of paying for meals of
senators in the senate restaurant
and haircuts and shaves in the
congressional barbershops to mail,
airplane, steamship, oil and gas,
farm support prices, some mining,
the various scientific researches
and for many other items.
No one knows just how much
the farm price support pro-
gram is costing the taxpayers.
We do know that the Commodi-
ty credit corporation has con-
sumed or put into operation
most of the four billion dollars
granted to it and is now seek
ing two million more with
which to carry out commit
ments under the various laws.
Of course not all Of this money
is lost. The government will
obtain some revenue from the
tremendous stocks Of cotton,
peanuts, wheat, corn, and 9TH
er commodities upon which it
has made loans or purchased
outright.
But those checks made out to
farmers; those checks made out to
airplane companies, about $120
million dollars this last year; to
subsidies to senate restaurant,
about $42,500 this year; the post Of
flee department about 500 million;
about SO million in operating sub
sides alone to steamship compa-
MES; millions more in tax rebates
or "loopholes" to oil and gas COM
panies and scores of other subsi-
dies are direct payments and out
of pocket expenses for the taxpay-
erS.
For instance, in addition to an
operating subsidy of "a million dol
lars, the United States taxpayer is
paying about 10 million of the cost
of constructing the 70-million-dol-
lar liner. the SIS United States.
The United States Lines pays only
% million.
This steamship subsidy is sup
posed to represent the difference
between what it costs to have the
ship built in this country and in a
foreign shipyard. In other words
the government, or the taxpayer is
paying this subsidy to have the
business kept at home.
The operating subsidy, and
both are handled through the
maritime commission, is sup
posed to represent the differ
ence between US. costs and
those of competing foreign
lines. At the present time the
maritime commission is pay
ing out subsidies on the con-
struction of five other large
passenger-cargo type ships.
So it is costing the taxpayer of
the country these millions of dol
lars to keep merchant marine on
the high seas, and the government
pays for the features it wants in
corporated in these new ships with
the idea that they may become
troop carriers in case of war. Tar
ifs are a form Of subsidy, in some
cases direct subsidies to American
business.

Time to Part

complicated case to present to
the court. He prepared his ease

Turkish towels will shrink slight
ly when they are washed the first
few times as their knit is drawn
closer together. They will reach
maximum absorbency after four or
five washings.
A bit of glycerine added to the
last rinse for wooden things will
make them softer and smoother.
Do not dry any woolens near heat.
Mops can be washed in luke
warm water and mild suds just as

LYNN SAYS:
You Can Make Laundering
Speedier and Easier

If you can't get to all the ironing
after it's dampened, store in plas-
tic cloth or cellophane bags in re-
frigerator to prevent mildew.
Lace tablecloths and bedspreads
need no ironing if they are placed
on a curtain stretcher for drying.
They shape beautifully.
Never dry blankets in harsh SUM-
Light. Shade is best for keeping
their color as well as their texture
as new as possible.

will lose their
appetite appeal because texture is
destroyed. This is true of both fish
and cheese, SO popular in menus
right now.
Fish is delicate and tender. To
have it reach perfection, time its
cooking to the minute. Then you'll
have fish anyone can enjoy!
Cheese becomes stringy when
cooked at too high temperatures.
Cooked slowly and carefully, it's
mountaineering, creamy texture is
preserved

thoughtful touch can make.

New Car for General

Brusk, but kindly Gen. George
Marshall, as head of the National
Red Cross, has long, new, sleek
Studebaker car. It's a super-size
job. Here's how it came about. The
general was grousing one day to
his good friend Paul Hoffman, boss
Of ECA, and former president of
the Studebaker corporation, about
the deficiencies Of his old car of
pre-war vintage. The general was
under the mistaken belief that his
old car was Studebaker and after
he had tolled off to Hoffman all its
faults, which were many, the latter
said: why general that isn't a
Studebaker but I can see you do
need a new car" And-coming up
shortly thereafter was the big new
special job for the general.

How Law Stalled

It's strange how important legis-

things. The senate finance commit
tee was considering the house
passed bill to overhaul the social
security program. A witness testi-
fled that tips of hotel employees
should not be considered as tax
able for social security purposes.
So the talk veered for hours, it
seemed on this question of how
much, how often and in what
amounts employees were tipped.
