canon December Is, SD Day
(Safe Driving Day).
Il am asking every man, wom-
an, and child who uses the streets
to accept full personal response
bility for observing the letter and
spirit of all traffic regulations.
SD Day is being observed all
over the country. 1t is sponsored
by the Presidents Action Commit
tee for Traffic Safety and humid
reds of local, state and national
traffic accidents can be reduced
organizations to demonstrate that
materially if we all pitch in. We're
going to give SD Day our full
support in West Jefferson, but it's
a program in which we must all
participate.
Police drivers and civilian en-
ployees of the Police Department
are being urged to set a good ex-
ample on SD Day. They are being
asked to exercise particular eau
ton in their driving and walking
on that day. We want to show the
people of West Jefferson that we
also practice what we preach.
TN West Jefferson during an
average week. this time of the
year we have about 5 to 7 traffic
accidents of all types. These acci-
dents don't have to happen, and
they wouldn't happen if every citi-
zen would drive and walk as he
would have everyone else drive
and walk.
Remember SD Day, and then
make every day your Safe Driving
Day"

Hotel Business Off
AS Tourist Season
Remoins Slow

The fact that hotels are en-
.joying little or no repeat
business" is the most import
ant factor in the falling off Of
the tourist business this year,
Tourist Director Goeggel stat
ed last week.
Al this time last year, the
Virgin Isle Hotel had about
200 guests, as contrasted to yes
terday when there were about
125, the Director declared. a
few guest houses were report
ed filled, hut the large hotels
like the Virgin Isle, Blue
beard and Flamboyant were
only 25 to so percent filled.In
ST. Croix the picture was even
more discouraging.
Mr.. Goeggel said he expect
ed that business will pick up
in February and March, and
pointed to the fact that the
weather in the United States
was mild up to a few weeks
ago.

AGRICULTURAL ACTS OF
I948 AND 1919

Widespread misunderstood n g
exists with regard to the economic
and political facts surrounding the
PASSAGE of the Agricultural Acts
of l948 and l949 which were
deslened to carry out in the post
war period the idea of assisting
farmers to market their commo-
dlheS in an orderly manner
throughout the marketing year
The Agricultural Acts of l948
and l949, which constitute the
basic price support and adjust
ment program authority were
designed to provide farmers gov
ermental assistance in adjusting
production to effective demand,
II should be borne in mind that
this legislation was evolved dur
ing a period after World War II
that resembled in many ways the
current period, Then, as now, we
had moved out of shooting war
situation into a postwar type of
economic setting Then, as now,
we had our AGRICULTURAL plant
OVereXpanded and were confront
ed with reduced foreign demand
The year l94T was one of extern
sive farm program studies Just as
1853 was.
On April 81. 1947. Clinton P.
Anderson, Secretary of Agricul-
ture. said:
We need to develop a long
range system of commodity price
floors to protect producers against
excessive or abnormal declines
during the market season and to
generally cushion declines In farm

!. Excessive prices pile up sur
piuses, which depress price.
Six and a half billion dollars
worth OF American farm products
have been piled up In the effort
to make price support effective. S
billions Of this consists of the basic
commodities, supported at 80 per
cent Of parity. Storage charges
alone are 100000 a day. Move
ment of these surpluses without
pulling down the price structure
is extremely difficult, and the law
requires that the price structure
be maintained.
Thus 80 per cent of parity is
an effective means of procure
ment. but disposal Is a difficult
matter.
mounting SURPRISES hang
over and depress the market
despite the most strenuous efforts
to support it, Though supports
are at 80 per cent of parity, wheat
is now selling at II per cent of
parity and corn at 81. There
comes a time when SURPRISES are
so great that price supports, how
ever administered. cannot be fully
effective Marketing the wheat
harvest of 1884 is likely to show
this most eonyincingly.
