Co-ops have come long way since 1914.
That was the year in which the Rochdale Society
opened its first coop, store on Toad Lane

This first coop had % members. Today in
contrast, single cooperative may have several

The report proposed a start OF
Jan. l. 1866, with at least 100000
entering the training corps for SIX
months to be followed by seven anC
half years in the Reserves subject
to first call for active duty. To keep
Selective Service going at the same
time, all young men registering would
draw lots to determine which would
be assigned to the six-month training
and Reserve program and which would
serve the regular two-year tour of
active duty in the armed forces
which would be followed by six
year assignment in the Reserves.
Killers Needed: The plan had the
blessing of Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Her
shey, Director of Selective Service,
who had startled many an American
early in 1851 when he said on radio
broadcast:
Yes, I have said that we need
killers. l prefer to tell the truth
bluntly than to try to make young
men think they're going on picnic
when they get into the service.
But the plan was shuttled back and |

CONGRESS
HICHLICHTS.

WASHINGTON Up Chairman
Karl E. Mundt of the Senate sub.
committee probing the Mccarthy.
Army row arranged a meeting with
Atty. Gen. Herbert Brownen to dis.
cuss a presidential order limiting
testimony at the inquiry.
President Eisenhower yesterday
ordered Pentagon witnesses not to
testify about any conversations
strictly within the executive
branch dealing with the dispute.
The subcommittee then voted to
recess public hearings until next
Monday while it ponders the Pres.
ident's order.
Mundt is under instructions TO
explore with Brownell the possbil-
lily Of modifying the order. Brown
ell backed up Eisenhower's action,
which cited the constitutional pro-
vision for separation of powers be-
tween the executive and legislative
branches.
Sen. Joseph R. Mccarthy (R.
Wis., contends the order prevents
him from learning the "motive"
tor Army charges against him and
his aides. Army Counselor John
Adams has testified a top White
House official advised him at a
Jan. 81 conference to put in writing
his relations with the Mccarthy
camp. Adams is, of course, under
orders not to testify further about
the conference.

Committee begins writing a bill

FIREWORKS-The Senate de-
bates House-passed bill to put a
partial ban ON the interstate ship.
ment of fireworks. The big issue
is whether to delay until Sept. l
the effective date of the ban. Some
senators say fireworks firms might
be bankrupted if the measure went
into effect before the month of
July. Others contend a delay would
cost many lives.
