Contaminated Grain Means
7O-Cent-P er-BusheI Loss


as soon as it started to move into inter-
state commerce. They didn't lose many
court cases because they had the hard
facts and figures concerning contamina-l
ton on their side.
7O-Cent-Per-BusheI Loss
When a carload of grain was de-
clared unfit for human use and re-
duced to feed wheat the eY#ncT- lost lost
about 20 cents per bushel plus any
litigation, demurrage and service costs
involved AS result of this campaign,
which was terminated in 1858, every
one concerned with the grain industry
started programs to clean up wheat
and to find the primary sources of
filth. In some cases the first source
of contamination was in unc1ean com
bines but at almost every step in han
tamination has. occurred. These sur
veys have proved beyond doubt that
the biggest source of foreign material
is in farm storage, something which
has been suspected for some time That
brings us up to the present time
The feeling among grain people now
is that the Federal Food and Drug
people may start on a new campaign
at any time They are condemning
wheat which contains grain which has
been treated with mercurial for smut
control. If the campaign mentioned
above should be opened at the present
time, elevator operators would be
forced to cut the price on good share
of the wheat taken in by so to 20 cents
a bushel-or to ssfeed wheat price.
They are the ones who would suffer
since grain falls under Food and Drug
supervision only when it is entered
into interstate commerce.
1t doesn't take the wisdom of a
prophet to see that the farmer who
keeps rats, mice and birds out of the
grain bins is going to be the best off
in the long run. Crop associations, ele-
vator companies, extension workers,
college personnel and others have
wealth of suggestions for producing a
cleaner, more wholesome crop. In adj
dition it looks like just good business
to observe the national motto, "Grain
is food, keep it clean"

many bushels of farm grain are going
to be lost IN storage Rodents and birds
VIII take the biggest share but insects
viii also get a part. Tt is a rather odd
fact that loss of only or 3 per cent
to some insect pest in the field will
cause quite bit of CONSERVATION. On
the other hand. once the grain is cut
and IN storage not too many people
bother to check it once a month. Yet
insects or rodents could easily take or
contamInate 10 per cent or more.
Some rather interesting surveys con-
corning stored wheat have been made
in Montana during the past year or so.
Probably the most important conclu-
sion to be drawn from the findings is
that farmers and ranchers are not pro-
viding the quality of storage needed
to care adequately for the grain crop.
In a good many cases just a few min
uteS' work would make good storage
out of bad Whether the storage is of
concrete and steel or of wood is of
little Importance as far as the effec-
tiveness of the storage is concerned.
Obviously some of the newer, more
expensive structures, if not maintained,
do not provide as good shelter as some
of the older, properly repaired build
ings.
70 Per Cent Contaminated
A better appreciation of the situation
can probably be gained by reviewing
some of the facts brought to light by
a survey of farm storage made last
winter. Grain samples ranging from
11k to "a pounds were taken from
49 farm storage buildings. Only six of
the 49 samples showed no contamina-
ton. An additional eight contained
only grasshopper Fragments situa-
ton which is virtually unavoidable, but
the other II per cent of the samples
were contaminated with everything
from hairs and mouse pellets to feath-
ers and bird droppings.
Since IS per cent of the food con-
sumed by humans is wheat in one
form or another it's obvious that lot
Of grain must be turned down or spe-
cially handled TO make it fit for human
use.

grain in farm storage may be con-
taminated- At the present time the only
one who can do anything about it is
the farmer And by looking into the
not too far distant future it appears
that the farmer who does take care of
his grain is going to be well paid for
the little extra time involved.
Cleanup Campaign
To get little better perspective of
the picture 1t may be well to go back
a few years and trace the policies of
the powers-to-be up TO the present time
regarding contaminated grain. Begin
ming about 1850 the Federal Food and
Drug Administration started, with the
millers and bakers. cooperative clean
up campaign aimed at eliminating I'M
fit grain from entering products to be
consumed by humans. This campaign
was termed successful by most of
the persons involved but the most inn
portant fact that emerged, as far as
producers are concerned, was that
good share of the grain was in poor
shane bv the time the miIIerS got it.

CLUB REvIvES
DAMAGE DISPUTE
WITH CITY HALL

An old dispute between the
Port Clinton Yacht Club and
the city over whose response
bility it is to keep the river
channel dredged was revived
Tuesday night.
Attorney Oliver True. represent
ing the Yacht Club, appeared be-
fore city council and charged that
the city had never properly carried
out an agreement made years ago
and that as a result the club has
been forced unnecessarily to pay
for dredging
The cost to the club this year,
Mr.. True estimated. would be in
excess of 5000.
If the city carries out its agree
ment this year, said Mr.. True, the
Yacht Club would be willing to
waive all past damage. If not, he
added, the club will look to the
city for damages.
"All we want" said Mr.. True,
lis that the property is placed back
in the condition it was before the
city made certain changes"
Carl Heckler, of the board of
public affairs, and William Crohen,
Waterworks superintendent, took
issue with Mr. True.
Both men said they had studied
the problem last fall and disputed
Mr. True'S claim that the city was
responsible.
The baekwash is a natural result,
both men maintained, in insisting
that the city was not responsible.
Il don't know who the agree
ment was made with - if there is
any agreement" added Mr.. Heck
! Ter.
The problem was dumped into
safety committees lap with instruc-
tions to report to council as a
whole next meeting.
Councilman Wilbur Petersen is
chairman. Other committee mem.
berS are Councilmen Jack Mizener
/ and Mr. Schade.

Police applicant
CLAIMS Injustice

Charges of ''prejudice" and
injustice" were hurled in
council chambers Tuesday
night in another angle on
muddled affairs of the police
department.
Ernie Isaacs, % yearold World
War II veteran and father of six
children, took the floor and de
clared:
Il believe I'm being done an in
justice and I'd like to ask Mr..
Wagener and Mayor Jeremy for
an explanation as to why they've
called for a new civil service ex-
animation"
Isaac was one of three recently
certified by the city civil service
commission as eligible" for APP
pointment to the police depart
ment.
He said that, at the request OF
Mr.. Wagener, he had spent 124
hours riding the police cruiser and
three days in police court to "get
experience" with the understand
ing that he was to be appointed.
I'm going to see an attorney -
| want to get paid for the time
put in at Mr. Wagener's request,
declared Isaacs.
Director Wagener told council
that he had been advised Mr.
Isaacs could not be hired becaus,
he resided outside the city limit
in Erie Gardens.
AT this point, Councilwomal
Carlista Snyder declared Il brough
| that question up several weeks ag,
and was told it had no bearing OF
the matter"

members and Solicitor Adair Wi

master, urged the lawmakers to re-
consider their action.
Mr.. Kalb prefaced his remarks
by reminding council that while a
number of its membership had op-
posed establishment of a municipal
court, actually the court had prov
ed to be the financial salvation"
of the city.
Port Clinton, continued Mr.. Kalb,
despite revenue from the munich
pal court, will be in bad shape
financially next year due to many
new demands.
In view of the city'S financia
position, said Mr.. Kalb, it would

Councilwoman Carlista Snyder

Treasurer George TewerS said he
had discussed the problem with the
auditors department and that he
and.the auditor were in agreement
that the tax should be kept.
Clerk Boyd Martin inquired SIS
there any reason why the public
schools, for example, couldn't be
exempted from paying the taxi"
This query drew quick reply
from Councilman George Schade
who declared to Martin: well
there's a good chance for you to
become lobbyist
Martin retorted: Il don't appre

Just before the unanimous vote
to table the question, it was agreed
that the entire ordinance will be
gone into thoroughly at the next
session.

LINCER GIVEN
COMMENDAT

Roy e. Linger, civilian chief of
the transportation division at Erie

commentator. 1t was presented
for the excellent manner in which
he prepared two voluminous and
detailed cost and accounting re
ports, which were not part Of his

ond Army.
The presentation was made by
Major James w. Devlin, Transpor-
tation officer, Erie Ordnance De-
pot.
Mr. Linger began working al
Erie in 194l. In 1914 he entered
the Navy and returned to Erie in

regular desk job as a radio man
in the department.
Il doubt if can get him to take
a regular trick" commented Wag
ener.
At this point, Councilman Geo
Schade exploded
"You told Lemaster (ousted
chief TO take trick or get out
you can DO the same here"
The Austin discussion arose
when Wagener explained that he
hadn't nired an additional member
to the department as instructed by
council at its previous session be-
cause, Il don't have anyone to
train him and it would merely
mean an additional man riding a.
round in the cruiser"
II was at this point that some
council members learned Austin
was still holding down his radio
desk job and Wagener implied
that Austin was unwilling to take
a regular trick.
Possibilities of appointing a
captain, rather than a Chief were
discussed as well as the possibility
of sending member of the de-
partment to Toledo for 60 days
training.
Council President Lee Bracken
commented eve can't wait for the
courts to decide the Lemaster case.
There's been a lot of vandalism
and it's important that our police
department stays on top of the
situation"
