Farm Animals Need
Foot Care

Animals have their foot troubles
the same as humans, says County
Agent George X. Vapaa.
Good breeding animals often go
to the butcher long before they
should-due to ill-shaped feet or
toes, he adds. Usually this is the
result Of carelessness and neglect
on the part Of the owner.
Ill-shaped feet OF toes that have
grown extremely long throw ex-
cess strain upon the bones and lig-
aments Of the lower leg. Vapaa ex-
plains. If they are allowed to go
untrimmed, broken-d0Wn pasterns
and crippling win result. However,
when the feet of livestock are
properly cared for, the useful life
Of an animal is heightened and the
owner feaps the additional prOduc-
ton.

dends, and are getting stock with
greater marketability. In some
cases it may also indicate that the
stock had been underpriced.
The article also describes legal
provisions and patterns Of proceed
ure that have shaped the branch
and merger movement. It points
out that although there is a dis
tinctiOn in corporation finance be-
tween the terms consolidation
and merger, for practical pur-
poses bank mergers and cOnsOlida-
tions are the same thing. Under
the law, however, a merger is diff
ferent from a purchase. This diff
ference has affected the pattern of
bank combinations Until 1850, a
national bank could be merged into
another national bank but could
not be merged into a state bank:
1t had to sell its assets and go into
liquidation. Congress changed this
IN 1850 by passing a bill known
popularity as the "two-Way street
law which, among other things, has
made possible mergers between
state and national banks under the
charter of either. AS a result, there
has been a number Of mergers be-
tween state and national banks.
Moreover, national and state banks
in combining with other national
and state banks have used mergers
more frequently and purchases
less frequently since 1850. In gen
eral, stockholders of absorbed
banks tend to favor mergers; ;
stockholders and management of
absorbing banks tend to favor pur-
chases.
The article contains a detailed
table itemizing the important pro-
visions of law applying to mergers
and branches in states in the Third

ing to the committee, would pro-
duce widely varying results among
the states for the reason that fed
eral grants have been built into
state fiscal systems to varying
depths to such an extent that their
complete removal, even with tax
cuts that would be cOmpensating
for the states as a group, would
/ produce distorted results among
the states individually.
u s. Tax Cited
In that connection the report
points out that federal taxes on per
sOnal income in Delaware are
about six times the amount of all
/ general fund revenues of the state
whereas grants are only about 2
per cent of federal income tax col
lectiOns.
The report analyses reasons ad-
vanced for and against federal
/ grants-in-aid.
Those who defend grants-in-aid
would argue, the report states, that
they:
l. Provide a flexible device for
effecting certain ends that is super
ior to performance by a single level
of government.
2. Cause greater reliance on a
progressive" federal tax system
and less on "regressive" state and
local tax systems.
3. Enable some state and local
! governments to have certain serv-
ices otherwise unattainable from
their limited resources.
4. Improve administration and
standards of performance in state
and local governments because OF
federal requirements attached tC
/ grants-in-aid.
5. Provide a substitute for direct
entry into some fields by the fed
eral government.
6. Bring about a certain amount
Of equalization of advantages
among poor" and "rich" states
both because the federal tax sys-
/ TEN is progressive" and also be-
cause the grants can reflect differ
ences in per capita income in their
appOrtiOnment
Z. Serve as a useful device in
counter-cyclical or compensatory
fiscal policy in time of depres-
sion.
Arguments Given
According to the report, persons
opposing federal grants-in-aid
would argue that they:
/. Promote waste and extraHa-
gance because of a (mistaken) be-
lief that "Other peoples money" is
being used.
2. Sap the strength of state and
local governments by making them
increasingly dependent on federal
handouts"
3. Force state and local govern
ments at times to develop costly
programs which may not be pfac-
ticably reducible in the future, even
though federal aid may be curtailed
OF withdrawn.
4. Force state and local govern
ments at times to develop programs
which are federally supported at
the expense of other and possibly
more desirable programs which do
not qualify for aid

It says Delaware believes that
states deriving particular benefit
from these programs by virtue Of
their low capacity (as measured by
per capita income) should be re-
quired to satisfy some kind of
minimum effort" test.
With further reference to the
use Of per capita income as a de-
termining factor in grants-in-aid
formulas the committee has con-
cluded that per capita income
should not be used both in allot-
ment and in matching require
ments.
The report Says Delaware "Ques-
tiOns and opposes the use of the
square Of per capita income rather
than simple per capita income in
determining a states allotment
percentage. This opposition is bas-
ed on the fact that the squaring
proposed rests on the rather tenu-
GUS reason that per capital income
reflects both capacity and need,
and hence should be taken into
account twice in ascertaining the
amount allOcable."
Block Type Proposed
It also suggests that wherever"
feasible and consonant with the ad-
ministTative organization of the
state, the block rather than cate
gOrical type Of grant be employed
in the interest Of greater admins
trative tleXibility at the state level .
Among other specific recommen-
datiOns in the report are:
Delaware favOrs a liberal min
imum grant for all states in all
grant-in-aid programs. This is ius-
titled on the ground that many of
the existing grants (e. g., the health
categOries) have, as eXemplified by
the case in Delaware, been so small
as to discourage any real enthus-
iasm for the development of the
programs intended by the federal
government to be developed.
"The committee expresses formal
disappTOval of the extension and
improvement type of grant pro-
posed in pending health, education
and welfare legislation.
Hits Project Grants
"The committee also disapprOves
Of the awarding of sO-called pro
iect grants to individuals or pri-
vate agencies without prior ap-
proval Of the state agency involv-
ed"
In summarizing its extensive sur
vey Of federal grants-in-aid pro
grams the report points out that
such grants are currently some
what less than So billion, or about
4 per cent of total federal expendi-
lures. For the 48 states as a whole,
however, grants are about Is per
cent Of state and local revenues
and about 10 per cent Of state and
local expenditures.
On a fiscal 1853 basis, the report
says, federal grants to Delaware
are about % per cent Of total gem
eral fund income and about 16 per
cent Of general fund expenditures.
AS for the possibility of COM
plete cessation Of federal aid, the
report says this would present a
very serious additional financial
problem to Delaware which the
committee says is in need of extern

tenn.

Ia the typical bank merger, stock

made out wen. according to an
analysis Of mergers in the Third
Federal Reserve District published
ia the Business Review" of the

sures book value of capital ac-
counts. earnings, dividends, market

was smallest IN the case Of book

typical case, stockholders of the
absorbed bank got $1.05 In cash

former holdings They acquired
about $1.19 Of earnings in the COM
bined bank for every one dollar
Of earnings they gave up, and about

bank for every dollar they had
been getting. Usually one bank
was so much larger than the other
that the merger had a much great
