Friends Join to Save
Farm for Tax Rebel

HILLSDALE, Mich, May 4
(AP).-Farmer friends, angry
at the Governments Federal
crop price support program,
banded together yesterday to
keep a 68-year-old rebel, Ralph
Shinaberry, from losing his
$4,000 farm in a 1910 tax sale.
About 20 farmers attended
the sale and forced out other
bidders by competing for the
property until payment of the
tax would give a lien on only
264th part of the l50-acre
farm.
Il have no intention of TAX
ing possession of the property. -
said Herbert Jessup, who was
the winning bidder.
Il just happen to believe a
man should have a little free
dom with what he does with his
own property" Mr.. Jessup said
If Mr.. Shinaberry does not
pay his tax by the end Of the
year. Mr.. Jessup will get a deed
for the portion of land he won
If another six months elapse
and Mr., Shinaberry still has
not paid, Mr.. Jessup will get
Evening star., 1960-05-04

clear title to the 1J264th por-
tion.
Mr.. Shinaberry's farm is
about 33 miles southeast of
this Southern Michigan COM
munity.
Mr.. Shinaberry has worked
his farm for 33 years. He has
refused 10 pay a Government
penalty for planting one acre
of wheat too much in 1857
but the tax auction was helc
to satisfy a Hillsdale County
tax claim against the land
Mr.. Shinaberry has refused II
pay the tax. He contends thai
if the Government controls hi
use of his land then he does not
really own it.
They want to take it over.
he said, 80 let them pay theil
own taxes for it."
Under the law, a county vii
sell as small an interest in thu
land as possible to satisfy a ia;
claim. In the Shinaberry case
his farmer friends forced ou
any serious bidding by offering
to pay the tax for smaller ant
smaller fractions.

sons eligible for participation
in the plan elected to purchase
insurance policies providing for
the optional benefits" Mr..
Flemming explained.
1T is impossible to estimate
the number Of persons who
would choose the optional ben-
efits. On the other hand, how
ever, it should be noted that in
creases in costs and increased
use of facilities could lead to
an increase in these estimates.
"a Million on Relief
Mr.. Flemming told the COM
mittee that of the so million
| persons SIS and over, IL million
do not now pay income taxes.
He said "a million of the IL
million currently receive pub
| lie assistance. He reported
that a 1858 study showed that
so per cent of persons SIS and
over had incomes Of less than
$1,000 a year and that 80 per
cent in that group, or 1873 mil
lion, had incomes Of $4,000 or
less.
This program, he declared,
rs designed to pinpoint the
area of greatest need, namely
the large number of persons
over IS who do not have the
resources or opportunity to OBJ
tain adequate protectio r
against the staggering financial
burdens of long term illness.
This plan guarantees COM
prehensive health and medical
services to all aged public as
sistance recipients in States
that become part of the pro-
gram. 1t is available to all per-
sons in the lower-income brack-
cts regardless of whether they
happen to be covered by socia
security. 1t identifies person!
who may benefit by the PRO-
gram on the basis Of a simple
and easily understood elisibil'
ity requirement without sub
jecting the individual to a de-
tailed and involved income Of
means test.
I'm summary, we believe tha'
Sle Medicare Program for thu
Aged will concentrate govern
mental assistance in such 1
manner as to provide the mos
effective and most responsible
, use of Federal and State funds
: We believe this program repre-
sents q practical solution to
