President Eisenhower has
signed the Nations first peace
time compulsory reserve act,
although he feels it falls short"
of reserve needs.
In a statement accompanying
his signature of the bill, which
raises the ready reserve man
power ceiling from is million
to 80 million. the President said
he is concerned by its provisions
and its limited authority to use
compulsion in building up re-
serves.
Among Al other measures
signed by the President yester-
day were a bill extending the
Small Business Administration
for two more years and increas-
ing its maximum loans and an
other extending the Defense
Production Act for one more
year.
Criticizes Measure
The President signed the re-
serve bill at the last possible
moment for its enactment. The
measure was a compromise
reached after three months
wrangling in Congress. In his
statement the President said it
will definitely strengthen the
reserve structure" but added:
st am, however, concerned by
the failure of the bill to afford
the same guarantees of prior
training for the National Guard
as it has done for the Reserves.
The bill is also deficient in fall
ing to grant authority to induct
into the Reserve if sufficient
numbers to meet military re-
quirements are not obtained vol
unfairly.
1.-The securing of sufficient
numbers in the Reserve on a
voluntary basis will undoubtedly
be hampered by the unwarranted
disparity under the bill between
the $78 per month offered to
members of the National Guard
who volunteer to undergo initial
active duty for training. and the
$50 per month provided for
members of the Reserve who
undergo identical, initial train
ing.
Recalls Requests
In my special message of jan
uary 18th and in recommended
tions of the Department Of De-
Tense. it was urged that provi-
sions be included to insure a
hard core of prior service per-
sonnet to the National Guard.
Not only did the Congress fail
to include such provisions, but it
also excluded the National Guard
from the provisions for interim
incentives to secure participa-
ton of prior-service personnel in
the various reserve training pro-
grams.
II have serious doubts that in
the absence of further statutory
authority, the National Guard
can fully attain its planned size.
and the standards of military
proficiency and readiness, that
are essential in our mobilization
planning. I am, therefore, in
structing the Secretary of De-
Tense and the Joint Chiefs Of
Staff to conduct a continuing re-
view of National Guard programs
and standards to determine
whether they meet the impera-
tive requirements of our first
line defenses."

Delinquent Tox Collector
Eventually Gets His Man
BY PAUL HOPE

A 36-year-old Richmond man,
who carries around a list Of
names and a batch of court Or
ders, is getting to be one of the
most talked about persons in
Northern Virginia these days.
He is Russell A. Carlisle, col
lector of delinquent State taxes
for the Virginia Department CT
Taxation.
Mr.. Carlisle has the job of
running down the approximately
6 per cent of State residents who
don't pay their State taxes on
time. He's doing a pretty good
Job of it, too-he collects all but
about one-half of one per cent
OF all taxes owed.
1--WE have one of the best sys-
TENS in the country for COL
lecting delinquent taxes and very
few escape paying" he said, dis
playing a check for 1941 tax
bill Of $1,98 plus 90 per cent
interest.
The collection process begins
in the tax Office in Richmond,
where Mr.. Carlisle and his 81
helpers are given all unpaid
State tax bills on the June 80
following due date.
Given 80 Days
Delinquents are sent a state
ment and given 80 days to pay.
After that they may expect Mr..
Carlisle to visit their locality.
1T takes a while to get around
but we get there eventually. -
he said. He said each jurisdic-
ton is visited about every two
years.
Sometimes we don't catch a
delinquent on the first visit be-
cause he's moved. But we still
have his name and if he's around
on the second visit we get him
then. Sometimes a person will
move from one jurisdiction to
another and we pick him up
when we visit his new home" he
said.
Various areas of the State are
worked differently. Visits are
made to the fishing areas dur
ing the fishing season when the
delinquent taxpayer is likely to
be there and have more cash
In hand. Visits to mining areas
are made when the mines are
working and the farm areas are
scheduled when the crops come
In.
Collection Procedures Vary
When payments are not made
voluntarily, one of several pro-
cedures is followed, Mr.. Carlisle
said. Tax warrants placing a lien
against property can be issued
by the State Tax Commissioner:
actions for Judgment may be
filed in the courts: wages or
bank accounts may be attached.
or letters may be sent to en-
ployers.
Northern Virginia residents
take their State tax assessments
a little less seriously than most
other areas of the State, Mr..
Carlisle said. Figures show that
while the State income tax
delinquency average was SIS per
cent in 1858. Arlington's was Q
per cent and Fairfax and Falls

56rg Hatchery
Erecting Large,
New Poultry House

Using extra long timbers salvaged
from the old Bluffton elementary
school building, Earl Jorg, proprietor
of the Jorg Hatchery, is erecting a
large new poultry house on his farm
south of town on the Allen-Hancock
County Line road.
The new poultry house will meas
ure So feet wide and 100 feet long.
Use of 26-foot beams from the old
school building enabled Mr.. Jorg to
erect the wide building using only
one set of supporting poles through
the center. The building is of the
new pole-type construction.
Mr.. Jorg said that the new poultry
house would shelter approximately
5000 pullets. He may produce one
flock of broilers early in the year in
the house, and then follow up with
pullets.
At present Jorg has his pullets on
range. He specializes in Ghostley
strain leghorns.
The new poultry house will be
equipped with automatic watering de-
vices and the Jones Way Magic Flo
automatic feeders.
