Cufback in RFC Loans
Likely, Fulbright Says.
As He Plans Inquiry
BY the Assoeioted Press

Senator Fulbright. Democrat,
of Arkansas, said yesterday an in
vestigation of Reconstruction FL
nance Corp. practices might lead
to congressional action to skel-
etonize the huge Government
lending agency.
Senator Fulbright, who heads a
Senate Banking Subcommittee
authorized to look into RFC af-
fairs. said auditors already have
begun a study of the RIGS f1nan-
cial transactions.
He said that while it's still too
early to predict the outcome of
the inquiry, he thinks the COM
mittee will have some concrete
recommendations for changes in
RFC practices.
RFC Cutback Proposed.
II have the feeling that in rela-
lively prosperous times like these,
the RFC ought to cut down on its
operations and let private sources
provide as much as they possibly
can of the financing that business
needs" he said.
"It may be that we will find as
a result of the investigation that
Congress wants to leave the or
ganization alive and in operation,
but wants to cut down it's opera
tions materially"
In this connection. he said, he
wants to find out why RFC some
times seems reluctant" to make
loans to small business.

AS a part of. its investigation,
Senator Fulbright said the sub
committee will inquire whether. as

Modern MARRIAGE
Woman Unjusty Exots Herself as She
Contemplotes DWorcing Husband
By Dr.. Paul popenoe

Mrs. w. is already standing on
the fourth step.
She's fortyish. and unquestion-
ably has to buy her clothes in the
department that caters to the
stylish stouts. She consulted a
counselor, ostensibly for vocation
al guidance. Should she try to
get into grand opera? She has
always felt that she had the tall
ent, but had not had a chance to
develop it.
What had she done? In high
school she was considered quite
musical. and on several occasions
since marriage she had been a
substitute in the church choir.
That was before they moved into
the city.
"You feel now that you have
more free time and opportunity,
do you. Mrs. W.?"
well" she hesitated. "I'd
have to divorce my husband. But
I've about made up my mind to
do that"
Mrs. w. is merely at a certain
point on the downward staircase.
Two years ago she would have
ridiculed the idea that she might
be professional singer. Two
years from now she will also ridi::
cule it. Today, she believes it's
true. Why? It's just the fourth
step downward.
Sociologist Willard Waller list
ed these steps by which a married
person descends to the bottom:

Recommends Aluminium

For over three years, research chemists at
State College of Washington, Pullman,
Wash, have conducted experiments in
the laboratory and in the field to check
the relative corrosion resistance of various
metals used for irrigation pipe. Their re-
port, Bulletin 201, concludes: "The COM
parative strength and lightness of alumni
mum and its high resistance to general
corrosion make it most suitable material
for use in portable sprinkler irrigation
systems"

Portable Sprinkler Irrigation Pays
Where Surface Methods Just Won't Work

Throughout the West there are
many farm areas that need irriga-
ton, but cannot be successfully
watered by surface methods. Some
have extremely permeable, sandy
soil :. and ''you can't carry water
in a sieve" Some areas are rolling,
with steep slopes that make it diff
cult to prevent erosion in burrows
or corrugations. You can solve
either or both of these problems
with portable sprinkler irrigation.
In sandy soils, sprinkler irrigation saves
water, because water is delivered directly
to the crops. Application is uniform, with
no dry zones. For example, potato grow
er in Arizona used total of inches of
aOdter to irrigate 120-acre plot with half
inch sprinklings at weekly intervals. The
same number of applications by surface
methods would have required several feet
of aOater.
In the famous Yakima Valley region of
Washington, fruit growers report that
sprinkler irrigation saves an average of
249o in water consumption as compared
with surface methods. Even though sharp
ly rolling topography is common in these
orchards, the rate of application by sprin-
king is controlled so that no runoff occurs.
Surface soil can be utilized better, par
ticularly where cover crops are used.

IRRIGATION EXPERTS
READY TO HELP YOU

Your portable sprinkler system will cost
less and do better job if you get the
advice of qualified irrigation specialists
right at the start. Many factors must be
considered crops, soil conditions, topog-
raphy, availability of water, and so on.
You can get reliable information from
your county agent, your state agricul-
tural college, or from recognized irriga-
ton equipment suppliers.

Ferfilising Through Irrigation

You can save time and money by fertiliz-
ing and irrigating at the same time with
a portable sprinkler system. Liquid fertil-
izer, containing all the essential elements,
is mixed with the irrigation water through
connection at the suction side of the
pump. This practice has produced excel
lent results on crops such as cabbage, GU
cumbers, green's, sweet corn and fruits.

A FARMER ASKS:
Can afford a Sprinkler System?

Portable sprinkler irrigation looks fine
you say, s'but can the average farmer
afford it," The answer is simple. In many
cases, a sprinkler system pays for itself
the first season. In times of drought, it
can save crops which might be lost. 1t can
hasten your harvest, enable you to sell
when prices are high. 1t improves yield
and product quality. Small wonder so
many farmers say, 81 couldn't afford not
to have sprinkler irrigationp'
