Joel T. Broyhill. Representative

regional transit service.
He struck out at proposals fol

be zone more Federal bureau, witt
added costs and no assurance II
could bring cheaper rates or better
service"
Such a regional authority wa:
advocated by Edmund D. Camp.
bell, the Democratic aspirant fol
the new Virginia seat.
New Potomac Bridge.
Mr.. Broyhill advocates at least
one new Potomac River bridge as
soon as possible. He said that. il
only one can be started now, he
has a slight preference for one
between Shepherds Landing and
Alexandria. But he also urged the
need of another upstream. be-
tween Key and Chain Bridges.
He objected to another proposal
Tor building a new span on the
line of E street NV. on the
ground that there would be
downtown bottlenecks in traffic
routes getting to and from that
location.
He said he already has studied
the bridge question, because he
had served for three years as a
member Of the Arlington Planning
Commission.
Wants Federal Payment.
Mr.. Broyhill upheld the idea OF
"a fair Federal payment toward the
expenses of the National Capital
but he declared there should be
similar grants to>nearby Virginia
He said one-sixth of the area OF
the new 10th congressional dis
trict is owned by the Federal Gov
ernment and that this property in
cludes some of the most valuable
in the area.
In this respect, he said, nearby
Virginia sis getting to be more like
the District every day."
"We are in the same boat" he
added.
The House and Senate District
Committees. he said. should make
periodic surveys of the crime and
law enforcement situation in the
District. sHe said this Is a matter
of concern to his district, because
If crime were to breed in the Dis
trict it would have it's rebound on
adjoining Virginia areas.
Favors Vote for President.
On the suffrage questions, Mr..
Broyhill said he thinks District
residents should be given a vote IN
presidential elections. He said
they also should have some repre-
sentation in Congress, maybe by
an elected delegate in the House,
and some new form of city govern
ment.
But he added: "The District does
not belong to the citizens of the
District, like Richmond belongs to-
It's people. because this is the seat
Of the Federal Government. There
fore. we cannot turn over its man
agement exclusively to the Dis
trict, for it belongs to all the
people,"

Cruel as it may seem, more than
so per cent of the losses due to
bruises in livestock are from club
bin, DR.. Hall explains. 1t is al
most impossible to beat or kick
an animal going up the loading
shoot without causing a bruise in
the costly back or hip area.
1t is the farmers responsibility
to see that the animals are loaded
slowly and quietly and that they
are never overcroWded. Cattle,
especially, derive a great number
of bruises and injuries from trav-
cling in over-crowded trucks or
trains. It is important that ami
mails of different species, sizes
and sexes be separated by parti-
tions.

and if you must kick an animal,

show that As per cent of the
bruises in hogs and over half of
those in cattle occur right on the
farm.
Farmers seldom realize that the
number of bruised animals ship

sible for the prices paid. The meat
packer must take into considera-
