proposals on health insurance
and Federal aid to schools in
January. Secretary of Health.
Education and Welfare Marion
B. Folsom indicated today.
Testifying as the first witness

recommended:
/. Extension Of unemployment
compensation to small firms hav-
ing any number OF employees
from one up, He said Congress

2. Extension Of the Federal
old-age retirement system to the
small segment Of the population
still uncovered. Nine out Of 10
workers are already covered.

told by experts that, despite cur
rent prosperity, the number Of
low-income families earning S2,-
900 or less a year has not been
changed substantially in the past
seven years. The experts found
that shrinkage in purchasing
power Of the dollar has Offset
the increased income Of those in
the lowest brackets.
Commenting on what Congress
could do to extend health in
stirance, Mr.. Folsom said:
This administration proposed
q Federal reinsurance plan de-
signed to improve voluntary in
surance coverage in rural areas,
of aged people and Of catastrc-
phic illness. Congress has not
acted on the reinsurance BILL ]
We are now studying possible im-
proyements in this proposal and
other methods for reaching the
same goal =
School Problem Discussed
Mr.. Folsom said education Is
an important factor In eliminate
Ing low-incone families because

To Ex-Sugar Beeters

THE RUSH TOWARD mechanization
and large farm units has left residue
of master farmers even among beet
growers who, because of small hold
ings, switched from beets to other di-
versified farming, particularly the
dairy, hog and calf feeding combina-
tions which offered an escape from the
ever-growing problem of labor short
age.
Now that machinery has eliminated
much of drudgery of all farming why
not let bygones be bygones. Why not
sally forth and give that water soaked
forty good fall piowing-come spring,
work it down exactly as for beets but
plant nurse crop of barley instead
Corrugate deeply, then roll the field
going with the corrugations.
When barley appears hand sow per-
manent pasture and drag with CORFU
gation) lightly. If it doesn't rain, irri-
gate and again when grain is in the
boot The grass may appear only in the
sunken corrugations but you have it
made-now buy 2 heifer calves for each
acre-winter them well to about 45O
weight. Turn them on the pasture the
following spring and feed grain Gone
to three pounds) per day. The gain in
five months pasturing will be pounds
per day, total of 300. Cash these ESQ to
800 pound heifers ahead of short-feds
about Dec. 1. They will grade high
good, returning about $1OO per acre as
pasture worth.
If this procedure is followed big ma
chinery will not rub you out.--Thomas

LILO to help refrain several hundred

European governments gave their ap-

associations found the most suitable
factories and, with individual en-

arrangements.
Indonesia asked lilo to organize
its vocational training. lilo sent one
expert to train Indonesian instructors

LILO experts followed him. But, for
lack of funds, LILO had to draw the
line at this point. The Colombo Plan,

REA EXPECTS PHONE
LOANS TO RISE

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(CNS)-
Rural Identification Administration
expects to loan less money to phone
co-ops and other telephone borrow
ers next year than it did last year.
President Eisenhower has budgeted
$40 million for phone loans in the
year beginning July 1-$5 million
less than this year. In 1854, REA
loaned $66 million for telephones
about SIC million more than in '53.
The REA phone program was five
years old October %. In that time,
800 telephone systems had borrowed
5000 million. Of these borrowers,
1872 were co-ops and 1873 were private
firms. This 5000 million means mod
ern service for 437, 900 farmers. Of
these, 100000 didn't have any
phones at all.
