diagnose the trouble but To date
nothing has been d5ne that has
halted the ,!Cath-dc2lIng hig ill
ness.
OF Hcrring's original % hogs
all were dead but one Tuesday
afternoon, and ne expected il
to be dead by today. Herring has
worked long and hard in an eff
fort to find out what was kill
ing the hogs and even carried
one of the porkcrs to market
where ne was diScCtCd and parts
of ii sent to Raleigh for a thro-
ough analysis. However, to date
he hasn't heard word about
what allied the hogs and, mean
while. the whole herd has died

States Again
Reject School
Lunch Shift

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(NFU)-
For second and possibly final time,
officials of the Eisenhower Admins
tration have failed to convince state
governors that they should take over
school lunch and old-age assistance
programs. At the second meeting of
the Federal-State Action Committee
on Nov. Is, the governors remained
unmoved by the arguments of the
federal group, headed by Secretary
of Treasury Robert B. Anderson.
The representation of 10 state gov
errors, however, did agree to take
over gradually the federal govern
ment's program of advance planning
grants for urban renewal projects,
but turned down the suggestion that
states take over small part of the
federal governments subsidy on fu-
ture low-cost public housing.
The governors group also agreed
to recommend that all states take
over spending on vocational educa-
ton programs, agriculture, home
economics, fishery and practical nurs-
ing).
1t was agreed furthermore to rec
ommend that no state should come to
Washington for disaster relief until
it had itself already spent anywhere
from $250,OOO to So million, depend
ing on the economic condition of the
state. 1t was thought that this would
cut state applications by about go
per cent.
