Virginia peaches are a good
fruit buy. If you're thinking
in terms of peach jams or
preserves for next winter,
you'll find some interesting
new recipes in our front
page color story this week.
Other recommended fruit
buys include watermelons,
nectarines, oranges and blue
berries. In vegetables the
best bets are local sweet
corn, green beans, radishes
and green onions.
Plentiful, too, are carrots,
greens, spinach, beets, green
cabbage. cauliflower, celery,
home grown cucumbers. and
yellow summer squash. Un-
usually heavy supplies of po-
tatoeS should bring about a
reduction in prices. On the

Beef Top Value
Beef takes over the spot
light at meat counters this
week. RoaSts, steaks and
ground beef are listed as spe-
cials at several food chains
and supermarkets.
With the season for cook
outs at its peak, shoppers
will have no trouble finding
just the cut of beef they like
best to toss on the charcoal
grill.
Among the offerings in
steaks are round, porter
house, T-bone and sirloin
along with a finch rib steak,
Delmonico and chuck steaks
with blade bone in.
There's ample variety
among beef roasts, too. Out
standing are boneless or
bone-in chuck roasts, 7-inch
rib cut, rump, round and sir

stew beef and ground chuck
are also on the list of spe-
cials.

Dollar Value
OF Education
Is Increasing

The value of education in
terms of dollars and cents in
come for the individual contin-
ues to rise despite prophecies of
a few years ago that the rapid
ly mounting number of college
graduates might be expected to
reduce the payoff.
Evidence supporting this con-
clusion comes from reports in
the American Economies by
Herman P. Miller Of the United
States Census Bureau.
They may be summarized as
follows:
Earnings of the average col
lege graduate in 1858 were
about $4,000, or approximately
65 per cent higher than those
of high school graduates.
This was up from 1899 when
the college grads annual earn
ings were 81 percent more than
that Of the man with only a
high school diploma.
Those with high school diplo-
mas showed even a better rec
ord of earnings increases over
those without, in a shorter per-
iod of time. The average high
school graduate earned 48 per-
cent more in 1858 than the ele-
mentary school grad, as
against % percent more in 1916.
Earnings of the average high
school graduate in 1858, some
what less than $500 a year,
compare with $500 for the
elementary school graduate that
same year.
Mr.. Miller, whose reports
were based on a study of cen
sus returns, adds another fact
to explain the rising value of
education.
Since 1910, the proportion of
men employed as professional
and technical workers, and as
managers and proprietors, has
gone up about so percent.

A compromise emergency
feed grain bill backed by the

The bill. applicable only to

It retains, with notifications,

That oil rocking chair in

one of his most treasured pos

than five years.
And DR.. Janet Travell, the
White House physician, is glad
he likes it so much. She is con-
that rocking in a good
high-backed chair is a fine way
to relax.
"Such a chair" said the doc

exercise and helps prevent
muscular fatigue"
A reporter went to DR.. Ira
veil after noticing Mr.. Kennedy
using the rocker during q re-
cent conference. The chair is
in front of the fireplace in Mr..
Kennedy's office-across the
room from his desk.
The reporter asked whether
the rocker was something DR..
Travell had prescribed because
of the trouble the President
has had with his baek-an all
ment which she first treated in
1855 and helped to clear up.
DR.. Travell replied she had
not prescribed the rocker, but
that Mr.. Kennedy has it be-
cause he saw one just like it
in her New York office when
he first came to her for help
in 1856.
"He found it exceedingly
comfortable and at his request
] ordered one just like it for
his Senate office" the doctor
related.
AS a Senator, Mr.. Kennedy
used the chair a good deal.
And he had it brought along to-

Mr.. Curtis said that after

BY GRACE BASSETT
Star Staff Writer

Oklahoma today ratified the
Constitutional amendment to
give District residents the right
to vote for President and Vice
President. leaving only three
more States needed to make
the measure law.
The Oklahoma ratification
came about when Oklahoma
House Speaker j. D. Mccarthy
jumped the amendment out of
order on the calendar of action,
bringing it to a vote. The State
Senate already had approved
the measure.
Meanwhile the vote amend
ment seesawed toward ratifi-
cation, pushed and pulled by
political party pressures.
Delays from one to two
weeks appeared possible. De-
spite uncertainty as to dates of
final State actions, the Dis
trict Commissioners today or
dered the drafting of a local
election law.
The proposed bill will be
drawn by city attorneys, in
consultation with the District
Board of Elections and the
Democratic and Republican
Parties.
Public Hearing Planned
Commissioner Walter N. To-
briner and the Commissioners
will order a public hearing
after the draft is completed. 1t
will cover such details as voting
age, residency requirements and
absentee balloting.
In the wake of ratification
yesterday by Missouri. the 34th
State to approve the amend
ment, Democratic leaders in
Rhode Island tried to speed
action.
The Rhode Island House, due
10 convene this afternoon, ex-
pected to receive a favorable
report from its House Special
