The Central Ohio Breeding as
sociation of Columbus had pre-
viously sent the tailless cattle to
the Ohio Agricultural Experiment
Station for mating and obserya-
ton. The COBA is interested in
learning whether the tailless factor
is inherited.
To dairymen, the calf born OF
tailless parents proves that cattle
with this defect are capable of
producing normal offspring. There
is always the chance, however, that
the trait may show up in future
generations.
More matings would be needed
to prove that inheritance has a
role pdorucing this abnormal
ty,' observed L. o. Gilmore, assoc
late chairman of the Department
Of Dairy Science.
There is no likelihood Dr. Gil
more added, that one inheritance
factor for this trait exists in all
breeds Of cattle"
Gilmore pointed out that cow
should not be condemned as
breeder if she gives birth to a
tailless calf.

It's been busy week around
L. H. S., especially for our talen-
ted home-ec gals. These young
misses planned for and served
tempting noon meal to a very dis
tinguished group of visitors. A con-
ference of superintendents met in
halls of knowledge Thursday, and
everybody was on good behavior"
you can bet! Miss Fisher and her
girls did wonderful job; every
one is very proud of them.
The Tri-L was in the swing of
activity, too, as they held night
meeting Tuesday night. The girls
were charmed by their speaker,
Mr.. Yutzy much respected and
loved Minister from Plain City.
He showed film slides of his travel
and work in Europe, and the girls
are very anxious to have him come
back again.
Old man winter paid us a sur
prise visit last week, and gave
everybody quite a scare - We
were so afraid we might have
to go home! But we braved the
storms and busily crammed know
ledge into our heads for those last
minute quiZzes that always come
with the last of the six weeks.
Now we're steeling ourselves for
what is to come Zone guessD
Tuesday morning the student
body was greatly entertained and
inspired by a wonderful speedily
ping demonstrator. For a national
Champion the 140 words a minute
were like falling off a log. Cheer
up, kids he says anyone can do it,!
The seniors were in a gay mood
Friday night as they met in the
gym for their class party. A
stranger might have thought it was
the junior olympics. But that's our
seniors way of having a good time.
What's more fun than basketball
game and coke and sandwiches! (!
Jr. High Raiders went to town
last week, defeating Mt. Sterling,

winding up with the Madison

Propose Tax On
Commercial Fish

COLUMBUS, OHIO - WildIife
officials are concerned over a pro-
posal whereby the Corps of Engin-
GERS, u. S. Army would charge fees
for the operation of commercial
fishing gear in Lake Erie. In COM
menting upon the proposal, Charles
A. Dambach, Chief, Ohio Division
of Wildlife, said that he knows
of no services rendered by the
Corps which are in any way pecul-
lar to the commercial fishing in
dustry in Ohio waters.
BY statute, the State of Ohio
requires that commercial fisher
men pay certain fees for operation
of their gear in the taking of
fishes from Ohio Lake Erie waters.
Revenue from these fees is used
entirely for the purpose of enforc-
ing commercial fishing regulations

and carrying out fish management
designed to improve COM
mercial fishing. In commenting
further on the proposal Mr.. Dam
bach said 1T is our firm belief that
it would be wrong for the federal
to further tax the com
mercial fishermen and in our ju-
dgment there is neither need nor
justification in the Ohio waters of
Lake Erie for a federaIly imposed
tax ona commercial fishing gear
and we would vigorously protest
the enactment of any fees for this
purpose.

Bender Would Ban
Transfer Of
Estate Funds

Congressman George H Bender,
in statement issued at Washing
ton today, urged that all Courts
administering estates refuse to per-
nit funds to be transferred to cit
liens of iron curtain countries un-
der powers of attorney.
Mr.. Bender said; MY attention
has been called to the growing nu-
mber of cases in which attorneys
representing foreign subjects have
demanded the release OF funds left
by Americans to relatives or
friends living in iron-curtain coun-
tries Some Courts have taken
judicial notice of the fact that this
American money is arbitrarily
-confiscated by the Communist gov
ernments of such countries and
never reaches the hands of those
for whom it is intended. In some
cases there is reason to believe that
it remains in America and is ul-
timately used for subversive act
ivities here.
There are numerous instances
in which the supposed beneficiar-
les of these estates have written
to American friends urging that
such funds be kept in America
under Court control Nevertheless,
by coercion overseas, many of
these people are compelled to sign
powers of attorney authorizing
American counsel to collect suca
funds on their behalf
II believe that it would be wei
worth the attention of Bar Associa-
tions throughout the country TO
look into the Circumstance invol-
we'd in these cases. They follow q
fairly consistent pattern, which
warrentS investigation.
We ought to show the { ~snua-
lists that we are fighting them ali
down the line. The Iron Curtain
countries either do not permit
funds belonging to American cit
izens to leave their boundaries or
Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1954-03-09

provide such penalties and restric-
tions as to discourage Americans
from claiming them. If we allow
them to collect the American doll
ars they are so anxious to obtain
in this easy fashion, we should
have our heads examined carefully.
THE Probate Courts and others
which administer estates where
these problems arise should estab-
lish a uniform rule and prevent
our Courts from being used for
this unworthy purpose"

Gen. Billy Mitchell
 Lauded by Mckay at Dedication Ceremonies

FAIRBANKS, R-The late Gen. William (Billy) Mitchell was laud- ed by Secretary of the Interior Mckay Wednesday as Ca man marked by destiny, a challenger of frontiers"
 Mckay spoke at a dedication of a new Alaska Communications System toll station named for the former Air Force general, who as first lieutenant in the Army Signal Corps surveyed the first telegraph lines in Alaska in 1901 and 1902.
 His Alaskan assignment was far removed from the career in aviation that was eventually to place him among the ranks of Americas most distinguished sol- diers," Mckay said, "but in com- pleting that assignment Mitchell contributed greatly to the con- quering of this northern frontier" !"

Approval Seen for Administrations Biz Tax Overhaul

WASHINGTON, lR-Republican leaders Thursday predicted final congressional approval, possibly next week, for the biggest tax overhaul program in 75 years.
 A House-Senate conference com mittee late Wednesday agreed on compromise version of the bill to cut taxes next year for millions of individuals and many business firms a total of about S1,363,000,- 900.
 President Eisenhower has failed the plan as the cornerstone of his entire domestic program, predict ing it would encourage business growth, remove scores of inequi ties and lead to more and better jobs.
 But Sen. Douglas D-IlD served notice Thursday he would renew when the measure returns to the Senate for final action, a running fight many Democrats have Waged against one provision in the bill cut in income taxes on divi dends received by corporation stockholders.
 On this politically touchy issue, the conference committee agreed to permit taxpayers to deduct their first $50 of dividend income, In addition, they could subtract 4 percent of their remaining divi- dends directly from the tax bill they otherwise would pay. A man with $10,000 income from divi- dends could get tax cut of slight ly more than $400.
 The bill, running almost 1000 pages, revamps almost every tax law on the books, at least techni- cally. However it does not change major rates.
 It permits scores of new or big ger deductions for medical ex- penses, depreciation, retirement income, child-care expenses, de- pendents who make more than $500, sick benefits, soil conserva- ton outlays, and other items.
