responsive TO the desire of the
people for a settlement Of the
tax question. Time after time
Republicans and Democrats in
the House got together on pro.
grams which have ended Michi-
gan's cash crisis and tax stale
mate - but every proposal was
blocked by a few Senators.
We all made mistakes during
the last eight months. But the
fact remains that the tax stale
mate could have been settled
long ago if the Senate had been
willing to go along with a rea-
sonable compromise.
Even if the Senators had been
willing a few months ago TO &C.
cept the tax program they finally
did accept. the tax deadlock
might have been broken then.
But a few Senators. represent
ing a minority of the people pre-
ferred TO see the State almost
ruined, rather than yield a single
inch in the interests of a settle
ment.
Michigan cannot be a happy
and prosperous state as long as
one House of its Legislature is
unrepresentative of the people.
Some program must be
worked out first TO reform the
Senate and do il without delay;
and secondly TO hold a Consti-
tvfional Convention, based
upon a fair method Of repre-

Job Of rewriting the states bas-

Reform OF the Senate is an
emergency job which should be
done as quickly as possible. Re
vision of the Constitution is a
%long-range job on which a con
vention should give long and
careful thought.
If the people of Michigan pu'

can be worked out TO solve il by

il more responsive TO the will
of the people.
Ii will take about five years to
60 through the process of get

opinion. reform of our unrcpre-
sentative state Senate is too
pressing TO wait for the long
Constitutional Convention pro-
cess - although we should have
a "con-con also. in order to
make a general constitutional re-
vision.
Michigan cannot stand another
performance like the Senate gave
up this year.
The fact that our Senate is
unreprcscntative is the basic rea-
son why the tax question was
not settled long ago.
Under the present constifv-
fion. Senators 40 not represent

ten times as many people as

The effect of this unrepresent

Senators, representing a minor

their frozen and carefully-drawl

Construction Starts On
Beebe Additions Soon

Construction will soon begin on
a new nurses school and residence
at Beebe Hospital in Lewes.
This was learned today in an
announcement by DR.. James Bee
be, Sr., board president, disclosing
that contract has been awarded
to James H. Wood, Dover contrac-
tor, for the erection of the urgent
ly needed facility for nurses.
DR.. Beebe said that the Wood
firm had submitted the low bid of
$3.50 900. This bid he pointed out,
was exceedingly close to the $780,
900 which the board believed would
be a proper expenditure for this
purpose.
Construction of a new nurses
residence and school is one phase
of Beebe's Hospitals proposed ex-
pansion program for which an
$850,000 building fund campaign
was launched last July. Also in
cluded in the development program
for the hospital is a new three
story hospital wing as well as mod
ernization of certain existing facil-
tiles.
This proposed second phase of
the hospitals building program
cannot be taken Immediately, DR..
Beebe said, because the fund cam
paign remains approximately $780,
600 short of the $850,000 goal. On
behalf of the entire hospital board,
he expressed confidence, however,
that the remaining funds will be
obtained, enabling the hospital to
complete it's entire building pro-
gram.
In announcing the contract
award for the nurses building, DR..
Beebe also pointed out that the
exterior appearance of that build
ing has been modified considerably
since original plans were disclosed
during the early part of the fund
campaign.
The final plans, as revised by the
architectural firm of Whiteside,
Moeckel and Carbonell, now pro-
vide for a building divided into
two wings joined together by a
large reception area which opens
to aagstone terraces both front
and back.
One wing will be two stories con-
tanning living accommodations for
both student and graduate nurses.
Each nurses room can be arranged
for use by two student nurses or
one graduate nurse, with the total
capacity being for 48 nurses.
The other wing will be of one
story containing classrooms, Ii
brary and administrative Offices for
the Beebe School of Nursing. This
wing will also have a nurses sta
ton and utility room to simulate
similar areas in a hospital.
The architects have so arranged
the three classrooms that they
may be converted into single
large multi-purpose room which in
turn may also be opened up to the
reception area.
DR.. Beebe added that the con-
struction schedule for the nurses
building is such that completion is
anticipated in eight or nine months.

This does not mean that the
small farmer will leave US entire
ly. In many cases, he has become
a "moonlighter with an hour
a day job in town. He farms
in the evenings and on week-ends,
partly because he realizes that a
farm is still one of the best places
to raise a family.
Some of our farmers are extend
ing themselves vertically, which
is another way of saying they per-
form some of the processing .or
marketing functions as well as
growing a crop. Roadside mar
keters, market egg producers and
custom work operators are ex-
amples.
We may probably expect to see
more dairy cows on fewer dairy
farms because of the heavy in
vestment costs in buildings and
equipment. The same is true of
broilers and laying hens. 1t is
doubtful that market hogs will
make any strong comeback in the
immediate future for this area. Or
perhaps with beef and sheep, we
may find them increasing slightly
in numbers to utilize surplus graz
ing land and forage crops. Meat
animals do seem to have a definite
place on small farms as efficient
grazers.
Curiously enough, Kent county
has a larger number of harness
horses than most areas because of
the winter training facilities for
the fast rising sport. Many a farm
is not boarding horses, especially
around Harrington, "the harness

Some local leaders expect to see
about 5000 acres of land taken
out OF. production in the next fif-
teen years, to urban growth, new
roads, and industry. This is less
than 40 of the total tillable land
in the county. With more intensi-
fed and mechanical practices, far
mers should be able to hold up and
even increase yields on the reduc-
ed acreage for many years to
come.
