0iIing Schedule
Cuts Motor Wear

A definite oiling schedule will in
sure proper fabrication and reduce
wear on electric motors.
l. P. Blauser. Ohio State Uni
versity extension agricultural en-
gineer, advises farmers to put a
card on or near each of their cleo
trio motors. The date can be mark
ed on the card each time the motor
is oiled to prevent oiling too often
or not enough.
After a lot of oil has been pour
ed on a motor it collects dust and
the motor can't breathe" Excess
sive oil and dust stop air circula-
tion and may cause the motor to
burn out. Every motor needs circu-
lating air to keep it cool.
Follow manufacturers directions
for oiling motors. If instructions
aren't available, 2 to 6 drops of
sac 10 motor oil applied each 3
months will keep most motors in
good running condition This is bet
ter than 10 or II drops every 6
months, Blauser says.
Motors. used near feed grinders
or other dusty places will need an
occasional cleaning. Blasting with
compressed air is the most practi-
cal way for farmers to do the job
Farmers can use shields to protect
running motors from dirt as long
as air circulation is not stopped.

in quantity and quality was ex-
ceptional. Kremlin shows great
respect for %, 900, 900 tough Turks.
FOA reports Turkey has re-
ceived q half billion dollars In
economic aid, plus many mil
lions in military aid, and have
received commitments for
billion dollars of additional arms.
Yet FOA also claims because
Turkish standard of living, per
capita income, and diets are SUBJ
standard, more dollars should be
given Turkey. !
Yet, a few pages later FOA
reports that from q base period
of 1945-49 Turkeys cotton pro-
duction increased from $4,000 to
10000 tons, livestock increased
from SIS million to 62,400, 900
head, cereal production jumped
from 6.3 million tons to 1913 mil
lion tons, chrome production
doubled, copper production more
than doubled, manganese pro-
duction increased tenfold. y
In 1852 Turkey was worlds
fourth largest wheat exporter,
and with about one seventh Of
U. s. human population, Turkeys
livestock population is one-third
Of the u. s. FOA also reports
Turkey needs storage facilities;
grain storage capacity has been
increased from a half million
tons to two million tons.
II
Thus, it appears Turkeys ma
jor problem is agricultural sur
pluses. American farmers would
be pleased to know how FOA
with dollar gifts would solve Tur-
kish farm problem, which has
yet to be solved at home.
Yet curiously while Congress
has held exhaustive investiga-
tions on postal deficits of S4O0
million per year, it has yet to
make equally exhaustive probes
at American foreign aid opera
tions which have already cost
taxpayers between $50 and $40
billion depending on which meth
cd of accounting Is used.

istration, successor to Marshall
Plan, qualities as a really great
liberal. But for stubborn resis-
tance of Treasury Secretary
George Humphrey, Congress
would today be considering re-
quest for $40 billion Marshall
Plan for Asia. e.
Curiously there has never been
full scale Congressional inveSti-
CATION of just what foreign give
away programs are accomplish
ing. F0A's own tax-paid corps of
press agents, who rush into print
ing a book or pamphlet at drop
of tax dollar, reflect great
deal of confused thinking.
y
For example at present FOA
is publishing booklets on each
of more than so nations receiving
u. S. aid. The one on Turkey is
interesting. If anyone can have
problems solved by U. S. gifts,
self-reliant Turks should be in
that position. The Turks, unlike
others, have never demanded u.
S. aid as alternative to going
communist. In fact, Turkey, To-
Gated on the Southern border of
big Russia, has even refused to
discuss with Kremlin joint con-
troll of Dardenelles, despite
threats. In Korea, Turkeys con-
tribution of armed forces both
