Deficit Seen by Taft
Even # ArmistiCe
Halls War in Korea
By the Associofed Press

Senator Taft. Republican. of
Ohio said today a possible truce
In Korea probably will not reduce
military expenditures enough to
balance the regular Federal
budget in. the year beginning
July /.
The Senate Republican leader,
who has been advocating a pay
as-you-go program, said in an
interview it now appears next to
impossible to prevent a 50 billion
deficit.
However, a deficit of that
kind would not be too bad be-
cause the cash budget would be
balanced and inf1ationary pres
Sures would be taken Off" he
said. I'm fact, I'm much more
worried about balancing the
budget in the following year."
Cash Budget Explained.
The cash budget is made up
of all of the TreaSury'S receipts
including collections for social
security and other trust funds
for payment of later obligations.
Thus the Treasury's income may
balance it's actual payments dur
ing a year, although deficit is
still considered to exist because
of the obligations for future pay
ments carried on the Govern
ment's books. Some economists
hold that the cash budget is
much more important than the
overall budget in stimulating or
curbing imitation.
Senator Taft said he believes
military outlays must continue
at q high level even if a truce is

and its list of victors includes such
turf immortals as Equipoise, Top
Flight, Citation and Count Fleet.

Lightning Losses
Mostly AvOidable

Livestock losses in pastures and
damage or loss of farm buildings
during the lightning storm season
are largely preventable, advises A.
V. Krewatch, Extension agricul-
tural engineer at the University
Of Maryland.
Here's how to go about it:
Wire fences on wood posts
should be grounded at regular in
tervals of 10 rods or so by means
of No. 10 or heavier wire thrust
into the ground at least to post
depth. Staple the ground wire
tightly across intersecting wire on
the post.
Trees that cows like to gather
under during storms can be pro-
tccted with lightning rods extend
ing to the top of the tree and hav-
ing the usual ground to constantly
moist earth.
Correctly rodded buildings are
seldom struck and rarely destroy
ed by lightning, according to the
engineer. But installation calls for
technical information, and Kre-
watch advises cntrusting the job
to reputable and experienced
workers. Check your system per-
iodically and keep it in top condi-
ton for good performance.

Whereas accidents injured
more than million and a quarter
farm residents last year; and
"Wheras these tragic losses are
reducing Americas strength in a
period of great crisis;

United States of America, do here
by call upon the Nation to observe
the week beginning July 10 as
National Farm Safety Week, and |
urgently request every farm re-
sident to cooperate in an all-out
effort to make 1853 as accident
free as possible. To the end that

areas for $500 persons and 1000
automobiles have been constructed
in the past year along Maryland
highways.
The areas range from a single

took office. He had noticed cars
parked along the roadside whila
the passengers ate lunches.
No funds were appropriated fol

From the FBI to the pulpit is
the story of the Rev. Merrill Dren-
men, native of Washington, D. c,
and currently pastor of the Metho-
dist Church in Ashton, Nd.
For several years Mr.. Drennen
was a special agent with the FBI.
His work included field service in
Alabama, Wisconsin, Western New
York, and the Washington Field
Office. He had varied experiences
within the FBI service, having at
various times served as bodyguard
for state officials.
Mr.. Drennen, at the age of 80,
resigned from the Bureau in 1948
to patch up his education" when
he decided to enter the ministry.
He re-entered the University OF
Maryland, having been student
there in 1882. Said Drennen:
81 was one of the faster stu
dents -. entered the university in
1882 and was graduated with a
B. A. degree in 1850" He had pre-
viously attended American Univer-
s;ty.
After three years of study at
Westminster Seminary, Drennen
was graduated May 26, 1858. Dur
ing the time spent at the seminary,
Drennen also served as pastor Of
the Methodist Church at Ashton.
At the conclusion of the annual
conference recently he was reap
pointed to full-time pastorate at
the church.
The decision to enter the min
istry was a growing situation"
says Mr.. Bremen. The climax
came, though, in 194S during the
I.enten season at a noon-time SER
vice at the Episcopal Church of
the Epiphany in Washington, D. c.
DR.. Joseph r. Sizoo Of George
Washington University, in a chal-
longing sermon, indicated the need
for ministers, saying, "A major
denomination wants to build soc
new churches but is not going to
build because of a lack of min
listers"

Study of Home Accident
Causes Launched BY State

The State Department of Health
will launch statewide home &C.
cident program next month with
funds supplied by the w. K. Kel-
logg Foundation of Battle Creek,
Michigan, Governor Theodore r.
McKeldin announced. A grant Of
$71,277 has been made by the
Foundation to finance the project
for three years.
eve cannot underestimate the
Importance of accident proven
tion," the Governor said. "Home
accidents are one of the leading
causes of death in our State. In
1850 the home accident mortality
rate in Maryland was 1914 per
thousand eople, compared to 1871
in the nation as whole"
''This study project should en-.
able US to examine the causes
of home accidents and determine
way to prevent them. Maryland
is indeed fortunate to be chosen
\ by the Kellogg Foundation for this
grant"
DIR. Robert H. Riley, Director
of the State Department of Health.
said that the plan presented to the
Foundation for study had been APP
proved by the Medical and CHR
urgical Faculty and the State
Board of Health. The Board passed
resolution acknowledging a need
for a home safety program in 1852
after R. M. Brown, Chief of the
Bureau of Environmental Hygiene
had pointed up the Importance of
the problem. Mr.. Brown will use
the facilities of his Bureau to
spearhead the home accident pro-
gram and expects to coordinate
all other services of the State
Health Department that could be
helpful, such as nursing, preven-
tive medicine, sanitation and vital
statistics.
A staff of needed specialized
personnel will be employed with
funds from the Kellogg Founda-
ton grant to assist in the develop.
ment of the program.
I'VE expect to begin a one-year
survey of fatal home and public
accidents (other than motor We
hicle accidents)" DIR. Riley said
''This will be the first stage of the
program and will orient State and
county health department people
in the activity. 1t should produce
some indications into the reasons
why certain accidents happen. This
will be followed by careful analy-
sis of the information. Once the
problem in Maryland is clearly
defined, we will pin-point specific
areas for further investigation and
begin a program of public educa-
tion and action"

Home Accident Prevention Pro-
gram in Maryland have been set
forth as follows:

Station WCMS
Given Permit
For Towers

Permit to erect a radio station
with transmitter building and four
towers has been granted to radio
station WGMS by the County
Board of Appeals.
The station is to be constructed
on 106-acre tract northwest of
Bells Mill Road and Seven Locks
Road, near Potomac on the Vivian

Residents of the area had OPP
posed the permit at public hear
ings in May but three civic groups
in the area declined to take a
stand.
The radio station now is located
in Falls Church, Va, but wishes
to relocate so that it could extend
its AM broadcasts without notice
able interference with other sta
tionS.
The Appeals Board said resi-
dents should go to the County
Council and secure an ordinance
if they wished to prohibit addition
al radio towers in the county.

Then followed a period of coun-
selling, most important one be-

or of the F.B.I. One of the cardinal
rules in the FBI, said Mr.. Dren-

of choosing between law and the
ministry. The law won. Hoover
wished him well and assured him
that he could have his job back
