reduced Visibility, he said
pointed out that more hours OF
means more cars on the road
after sundoWn.
And inclement weather often
coats Windshields and car door
glass with steam, snow, ice and
Sleet."
Snow banks and stalled
vehicles along the roadway hide
danger ahead. And rain and
snow storms, of course, some
times almost completely destroy
visibility"
'"The second condition, made
quate traction, makes control of
the vehicle extremely difficult
at times" he said. Inadequate
traction is due primarily to snow,
sleet or ice on highways" "
Muddy roads and wet pave
ments also can be dangerous"
He suggested that drivers
make sure when they start out
on a trip in winter that their
cars are in tip-top condition,
especially windshield wipers and
defrosters, and that motorists
always carry and use tire chains.
''The third hazard also calls for
a high degree of attention to the
road. Temperature changes on
ice and snow will change the de-
gree of traction" he said, "and
this affects braking distances"
GAS the temperature rises dur
ing the day, icy roads become
more slippery
He also reminded driveTsA to
remember these winter hazards
and to "Stay Alert Stay Alive
in Winter Weather"

the special livestock loans. and.
in designated disaster areas, the
disaster loan program.
Through the operating loan
program, farmers may borrow

through local county Farmers
Home Administration offices TO
farmers and stockmen whose
proposed operations are on a

The special livestock loans were
made available late last sum
mer. The December ii report by

special livestock loans to buy
feed and hay, obtain pasture
facilities, replace livestock to
normal levels, and to handle
other needs brought on by |
drought condition. These loans |
are restricted to established pro-
ducers of cattle, sheep, and goats, |
and are to help farmers carry |
on normal livestock production
rather than for expansion of |
operations.
Disaster loans are made only
in areas designated by Secretary
Benson as disaster loan areas.
These are counties or states
where severe weather or other
conditions have caused substan-
tial production losses or where
unfavorable local economic and
credit conditions have made
emergency credit necessary for /
continued operation. More than
$500 disaster loans totallingl
So, 100000 had been obtained byI
farmers between July and
December II this year.

a tax credit equal to SO of addition

rising to 1919 in succeeding years.
Originally Treasury Secretary George
NJ. Humphrey proposed that this tax
credit rise to 1870 the third year.
The house ways and means commit
tee went along at first, then back
tracked later.
Unbeknown to several house com
mittee members, further limit was
thrown in before the bill was de-
bated on the floor. This limits the
tax credit to 2% of taxable income
the first year, 10 the second, and
1919 the third.
Here's the way the proposal works
