BY CONGRESSMAN
Bob Sccrest

Many OF US have strongly op-
posed the importation of glass,
shoes, furs and many other pro-
ducts from Russia and countries
dominated by her. More than
twelve million pieces of glass
ware and one hundred and fifty
two million pieces of pottery en-
tered the United States last year.
Products from Communist coun-
tries not only force many Amer
leans out of employment but fur
nish Russia with millions of dol
lars to operate the Communist
party and spread its propaganda
in the United States.
Fifteen of us in Congress in
troduced resolutions calling upon
the president to cancel recipro-
cal trade agreements with all
Communists controlled nations.
For weeks we have tried to get
a hearing by the ways and means
committee. We were unsuccess-
full.
Under the rules of the House,
if a committee has not acted on
a bill for thirty legislative days
member may file at the
speakers desk a discharge petit
ton While the house is in ses-
sion any member can go to the
speakers desk and sign this petit
ton. If two hundred and eighteen
members sign it, the bill auto
matically comes up for considera-
ton in the house. On Aug. 14th
l filed a discharge petition tc
take one of the resolutions from
the committee and force a vote
in the house. In two days time
more than forty members had
signed it, and we are hopeful
that we can get the required two
hundred and eighteen.
feel certain that the bill will
pass if we can get it to a vote
because no one can justify the
creation of prosperity in Com
munist controlled countries by
the use of American dollars
Neither can we justify the use
of our money for the spread Of
Communist doctrine.

NANCY FARMHOUSE

Even though autumn quarter
or that new job may seem far,
far away, it's time to start plan
ming your fall ack-to- school
wardrobe
The newest fall fashions can
be summed up in three words:
plaid, tweed and velveteen. AL
most endless smart costumes can
be derived from mixing or
matching these basic costumes
in your wardrobe
These wonderful tartan plaids
that are everybody's favorite
are available in all the leading
clans. Just a few are the Gamer
on tartan, the Menzies tartan,
and the colorful McRae tartan.
Jumpers, jackets and Stacks are
an example of the garments to
start your collection with. AS
companion why not add a plain
black skirt or blouse?
Velveteen is making headlines
this year by its versatility. Those
good-looking jumpers that are
the classroom classic with pert
little blouse may be worn minus
the blouse for a very alluring
date dress.
Tweed seems to be the peren-
nial favorite of best-dressed peo-
pie everywhere. This year is no
exception. Take your choice of
the smartly tailored suit or per-
haps a couple of skirts with a
different color background-but
take tweed! Or perhaps you pre-
fer the long jacket with, the gen.
tlemanly air to top off your
plain skirts.
This seems to be good time
of the year to plan your buying
of major accessories. When de-
Gliding what kind of color of
shoes and purse to invest in take
into consideration not only your
present clothes but the purchases
you are planning to make

tempting mouth watering pie for

ing for a different recipe, here's
time tested one. Line an eight
inch pan with your best pastry.
Fill with fresh sliced peaches.
Sprinkle peaches with one table
spoon quick cooking tapioca and
dribble over one-third cup hon
ey. Lay twisted strips of pastry
across the top. Fasten well at the
edges. Bake in hot oven (425 de-
grees F.) 35 to 40 minutes or un-
til delicately brown. If sugar is
preferred for sweetening use
one-half cup. Blend well with
tapioca before sprinkling over
peaches.

Indians hunted buffalo thru

the region. SO did white men.
The Catawbas had a trick of lur-
ing us into ambush. They wore
shoes with buffalo hooves on the
bottom. Smart woodsmen, like
Lew Wetzel, never followed buff
falo tracks unless there appeared
buffalo manure along with the
tracks.
Before Silas Thorla began
boiling salt in the Olive area in
1914, buffalo had helped pound
paths from salt lick to salt lick.
Deer and elk also sought these
saline seepings. The woods were
the home of wolves and wild tur-
keys. There was an occasional
painter" and practical jokers
were always screaming like wild
cats outside early log cabins.
The Olive salt wells were CON

that later made Noble countians

City, where the first gas well
was used for commercial pur-
poses. The valley and its flank

there was the memorable Battle

policies be changed - that the
people deliberately give up some
domestic expenditures, even
though they are desirable in the
long run.
The single-package appropria-
ton bill is only part of the neces-
sary program for a legislative
budget. The LaFollette- Monroney
bill provides that a joint commit
tee of the House and Senate set
up a legislative budget and have
it approved by Congress before
the first of March. This provision
has been ignored by the last two
Congresses because the machinery
was awkward and Congress as a
whole could not well commit itself
before investigating the expendi-
lures requested.
In my opinion, the joint ap-
preparations committees should
be given an adequate staff to
follow the making of the execu-
tive budget before Congress
meets. Some kind of a budget
committee including represen-
tatives of the Senate Finance
and House Ways and Means
Committee should then early in
the session recommend budget,
both on the revenue side and the
appropriation side. do not think
Congress should be asked to ap-
prove it in advance by reSOlu-
ton.
THROUGH its appropriation
committees, it will investigate
all the details, consider the execu-
tive budget recommended and the
legislative budget recommended
While it will not be bound by the
legislative budget, undoubtedly
that budget will have an effect or
its work.
do not see how Congress car
act lntelligently without some den

one-package appropriation bill anc
the legislative budget are not con-
venient, and they do not fit the
customary approach of individual
Congressman and Senators who
are more interested in specific ap'
preparations and policies than ir
the sound financial result.
1t seems to me that it is the
only way to get any intelligence
into government financial plan
ming, and that there is no other
way of avoiding deficit spending
certainly leading inevitably to
imitation, higher prices and eco
nOmic instability.

I doubt if it takes any longer. The

for approximately month, but
this was partly because of the

In a reply on April 81. Moscow
continued to refer to the Ameri-

type and stuck to its original ver-
sion Of the incident.
In the new note to Moscow to-

the Soviet version of the incident

it has not investigated, the note

Text of American Note.
Text of the note follows:
THE Ambassador Of the United
States of America presents his
compliments to the Minister of
Foreign Affairs of the Union of
Soviet Socialist Republics and,
with reference to the ministry's
note of April 81 regarding the lost
American airplane. has the honor
to communicate the following:
'The Government of the United
States of America notes that the
government of the Union of Soviet
Socialist Republics continues to
refer to an American airplane of
the B-29 type, which allegedly
penetrated Soviet territory on
April 8. despite the fact that it
has been made clear that the only
American military airplane in the
Baltic area on April 8 was a United
States Navy airplane of the Pri-
vateer type.
"The United States Government
reiterates that this United States
Navy airplane was unarmed and
was at no time over Soviet or
Soviet-occupied territory or terri

that the Soviet governments &C

Soviet Account Held Erroneous.
THE reply of the government
of the Union Of Soviet Socialist
Republics to the United States
Governments communication of
April 18 makes it obvious that the
government of the Union of Soviet
