duStry.
Of all the Administration pro-
grams opposed by the Democrats
perhaps the farm program is the
one most actively opposed and is
the most controversial of the Re-
puohcan Administrations new
programs.
Benson could offer little n
couragement to farmers. although
ne sincerely defended his farm
program as one which would
eventually correct a situation
which, he charges, was caused bv
SURPRISES piled UP in Democratic
administrations.
Mr.. Benson admits that the
farmers income has been dron-
ping and his own statistics show
that farm operators net income
was down in 1854 over that of
1898 Once again, however, he
comes back to the theory that
mounting SURPRISES made if inn
possible to hold the line on farm
prices.

'etlcally correct or not, if his farm
program does not show dollar and

EDEN'S GOVERNMENT
LOWERS TAXES

Sir Anthony Eden, Prime Min
lister of Great Britain, has come
up with a twist which he hopes
will win him the elections in Great
Britain May 26th.
His government has announced
that the basic tax rate will be
reduced from forty-five per cent
TO forty-two and a half per cent
OF taxable income, making the
tax $1.12 to the pound (S2.8O). At
the time of this announcement
chancellor of the Excheouer r. a
Butler revealed that increased AL
loWances in tax-free income would
also be granted.
Inc tax-free allowance was in
creased from a low $50 TO 5000
LOT a single person and increased
by about 500 for a married cou-
pie. Exemptions for children were
also increased.
Inc tax cuts made possible in
Great Britain are obviously d,,o

U. S. PENSION
FUND INCREASES

The old-age and survivors in
surance trust fund of the TT G
Government continues to increase
Congress was told a few days acc
that assets at the end of the Last
fiscal year totaled $2O,O42.615OOO
Thls represents a rise of Sl676 :
$4,000 in the twelve-month ner-
1od. At the same time, it was re-
veaIed that the number of per
sons in employment covered now
by old-age and survivors insl1r-
ance is $1,000, 600. AS of last June
80, the number who were bene-
hclarles was 6,469, 900.
Benefit payments to the trust
Iund rose IN 1854, because of the
increase in the contribution rate
which took effect on January
1884. Figures show that payments
and receipts both increased in tbe
last fiscal year.
Payments went up by 647.OOO.-
200, or a total of twenty-four ner
over the preceding year. Re-
celpts rose 1856, 900, 900, or twelve
per cent. The result was still
surplus of more than one and =
half billion for the year.
1t is estimated that the o1d-aoa

VIII continue to grow in the next
I'VE years. Even if business suf-
-erS a decline, it is expected that
several billion dollars will be add
ID to the fund in the next five

The most encouraging thing
bout the fund is the fact that
IS now drawing a considerable
interest income, since it is direct

ton has been increasing at a far
faster rate than u work force.
So, the output of each worker
and each machine will have to
increase substantially over the
years just to maintain our present
living standards - and increase
greatly if we are to improve those
standards. Attenuation, to many
minds, offers the means of solv-
ing that problem, to the ultimate
benefit of everyone.
The Sidney herald., 1955-05-19

Altogether, it seems that the old
age and survivors insurance trust
1und is working out soundIy. as
Planned, and that workers need
not fear there will not be funds
or that Congress will have to en-
act special legislation to cover
payments.

ARMY BAND AT
u. OF ID. FRIDAY
One Hundred Piece Band To
Present Open Air Concert
on South Campus
STARTS AT s PM.

The one hundred piece United
States Army Field Band of WASH
ington, D. c., under the direction
of Major Chester E. Whiting, win
present an open air concert on
the south campus of the Univer-
sity of Delaware tomorrow even
ing, August 26, at 500 pm.
The program is part of the
First Eastern Band and Choral
Reading Clinic which viii contin-
lie through Saturday morning at
the university. Nearly four hund-
red participants from the United
States and Canada registered for
the clinic sessions on Wednesday,
the first such experimental clinic
to be held in the east
Major Whiting has gained an
enviable reputation as both sold
ier and musician as leader of his
impressive musical organization.
AFTER attending the New England
Conservatory of Music, the Maid
en-, Massachusetts, officer became
a member of the teaching faculty
of his home town high school. |
Soon his musical talents were rec
ognized and his outstanding abil-
ity as a leader of men rewarded
by his assignment as head of the
music department of all Maiden
schools, a position he held until
his direct appointment in 1928 by |
the governor of Massachusetts, as
a Warrant officer in the Massa-
chusetts National Guard to or
ganize and conduct that units
band.
Shortly before the outbreak of
World War II his unit was called
to Federal Service and, in 1912,
sailed for the South Pacific war
zone. While in the Pacific The
atre, Major Whiting organized
and conducted the famous Ameri-
cal Division band on the infamous
island of Bougainville.
The American Division took
active part in the bloody fighting
on Bougainville and Guadalcanal
in the early stages of the Pacific
war. AS in any infantry division
the members of the band are used |
as litter bearers and communica-
tions men during the fighting.
Major Whiting and his men were
no exceptions-they remained in
the front lines helping evacuate
the wounded during the engage
ments. For his devotion to duty
and leadership under fire, Whit
ing was awarded the coveted
Combat Infantry Badge, the Leg
ion of Merit and the Bronze Star
Medal.
In 1914 it was decided in Wash
ington to organize a band of COM
bat infantrymen from combat di-
visions throughout the world. This
band, to be known as the First
Combat Infantry Band, was to
travel throughout the nation on
bond-selling tours.
To organize, command and con-
duct this unique band, Whiting,
then a Captain, was selected. Af-
ter selecting his musicians, pro-
curing the necessary instruments,
and weeks of rehearsal, the band
began its mission. So successful
was this mission of selling bonds
that the unit earned the nick
name of the Million Dollar
Band"
From this beginning evolped the
present United States Army Field |
Band, the Armys travelling band.
Since its inception Major Whiting
has been in command. Under his
leadership the band has toured
Canada, Mexico, Europe and tine
British Isles, in addition to every
State of the United States, as
goodwill representative of the
Department of the ARMY.
