less that business is attended to
with all our dedication, strength
and courage, nothing else will
exist for long. Cooperation is the
opposite of conflict and Coop in
situations work together for the
welfare of people across %interna-

And it will be across these bridges,
that people will carry the mess

peace consists of doing the things

An increase of more than $40
million annually in revenues from
firm power sales of electricity in
the Eastern Missouri Basin would
be gained by the Federal Govern
ment under a plan submitted by
power suppliers in the area by
firming up the capacity of hydro
generating plants on the Missouri
River. No additional capital in
vestment by the government
would be necessary. The Federal
hydroelectric system in the Basin
would have approximately a
500 increase in firm power avail
able for its preference customers
in the marketing area under the
proposed plan.

REPORT
BY Les Young
GTA BUYS
LINSEED OIL PLANT

The Farmers Union Grain Ter
minal Association has announced
the purchase of the facilities of
the Minnesota Linseed Oil Co. of
Minneapolis. This is one of the
largest flaxseed processing plants
in the nation, and has a capacity
of z to 8 million bushels. Linseed
oil has many uses and the by-pro-
duct is a valuable livestock feed.
This along with the soy-bean pro-
ceSsing at the Honeymead plant
puts the farmers in a fortunate
position in the integrated opera
lions in the feed products field.
COOP TIRE SALES
1t is interesting to note a report
made at a recent Annual Meeting
of the National Cooperatives held
in Minneapolis, that Coop tires
represent TO of the national tire
market sales; that while the total
market was down 10, coop sales
were up 1870 and truck and trac-
tor tire sales dropped 3R%, while
coop sales went up 1870.
COOP MONTH
October has been designated
Coop Month by the proclamations
of the governors of nine midwest
states. Each governor was high in
his praise of co-ops not only for
farm betterment, but also for the
general economy of the states
These governors were four repub-
hcan and five democratic. Mon
tana was not included this year
The prime minister of Canada has
declared that "The steady increase
in membership and the variety of
coop endeavorS argues well for
the continuing progress over the
agricultural future. The very con-
sentative Fortune magazine says
that 1861 will go down in history
as "the best farm income year
since Korea" up 40 over 1860,
and that it did not come through

C. z. RETIRES STocK

For the second time in six
months, the Farmers Union Cen
trial Exchange has declared multi
million dollar cash retirement of
stock to it's affiliated local co-ops.
This should be a help in the pre-
sent farm economy, as these saw
ings will in turn be passed on to
the local business communities in
80 years of c. E. history. 1t is only
through their co-ops that farmers
are able to hold any control over
their raw materials, supplies and
markets.

Fair Opens Tomorrow
InMontgomery County

It's fair time in Montgomery
County this week.
The annual county fair opens
tomorrow at 1880 pm. at the
Gaithersburg fair grounds and
will continue through Satur-
day.
That's when a new feature Of
the fair-a All Club pageant
and a parade of floats-is
scheduled.
The opening night also will
include coronation of a fair
queen to reign throughout the
week. Selection will be made
from among nine All Club
girls who are semifinalists in
the queens competition. She
will be crowned by Representa-
tive Matthias, Republican of

their study of all-year schools,
probably some time in No
Vember.
He also revealed that the
board would probably discuss
not one but several plans "foF
better utilization Of schools"
At least three proposals, in
Guiding Supt. C. Taylor Whit
tiers Twelve -Four" plan, would
probably involve year-round
use of the school buildings, MI.
Breimyer said.
Other plans likely to be con-
sidered, he said, include a four
quarter system which would
divide the school year into four
sessions of three months each
and a trimester" proposal con-
Sisting of two semeSters and a
summer session.
MIR. Breimyer said the latter
plans might provide a tradi-
tional school year requiring a
pupil to attend for nine months,
but varying the vacation pc
RODS.
AS proposed elsewhere, he
said, students are usually al
lowed to choose the period in
which they want to vacation.
Under other Setups, the sum-
mer session offers a complete
range of courses, but attend
anee is purely voluntary.
Details Needed
He said details of either pro-
posal would have to be worked
out by the board.
DR.. Whittier'S plan, on the
other hand, provides speci-
fieally that each student would
attend school for three periods
Of IL weeks each, separated by
four vacation periods.
One-quarter of the student
body would always be on vaca-
ton, and the buildings would
be in use throughout the ca
lendar year.
However, school officials say
they will not put any plan into
operation unless it meets the
general approval of county citi-
zenS.
Mr.. Breimyer said a referen-
dunn or a public opinion poll
we're two possibilities the board
would consider in attempting to
gauge the county's sentiments.
Public hearings on the pro-
posals may be held next March
or April, Mr.. Breimyer said.
If the board then decides
the situation merits it, mem
bers may then ask the county
council to include the issue on
a county wide ballot-perhaps
in November, 1862.

tiers plan-the only one which
has received wide publicity-is
about even, according to school
officials.
Most opponents of the plan
feel elimination of the three
month summer vacation would
deprive some children of the
chance to earn extra money and
others the privilege of lust
being kids"
One Kensington WON Ian
wrote:
Il cannot conceive of my
children applying themselves
so far as studying is concerned
during the heat of the school
months of the summer"
Proponents, however, gen.
orally agree with a Bethesda
family which wrote, I'VE are
all agreed that full utilization
of schools is indeed desirable,
and we wish to express our
full support of this plan"
Nearby school officials, ex-
cept for District School Super
intendent Carl Hansen, appear
to approve the plan in most
respects.
Hansen Sees Problems
DR.. HenSen, who conceded
the proposal is imaginative
and bold" nevertheless said he
believes problems of admins
tration of this complex plan
would be overwhelming"
But Supt. w. T. WoodSon of
Fairfax County expressed the
opposite, opinion, observing:
From. an administrative
standpoint and actual school
operation, I believe it could be
made effective"
Supt. Paul D. Cooper of
Worcester County (MdD OBJ
served that tradition favoring
the three-month summer vaca-
ton would be an impossible
barrier" to acceptance of the
plan in most areas.
Nevertheless, he said, II be-
lieve if there is any place in
the United States where a H.
month program might work, it
would be Montgomery County,"

By Blue Chips
By ED MORSE
Associated Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK, May 27.-The
stock market declined this week
as some of the biggest blue
chips were upset by adverse
news.
The Associated Press average
of so stocks fell 2.40 to 249.70.
The Dow Jones Industrial aver
age fell 9.68 to 696.28.
The sharp setbacks in the
averages were due largely to
retreats of Dupont, American
Telephone and General Motors,
which were hit by Supreme
Court and Government actions.
The difference between what
the market" is doing and how
these averages are reflecting
it was illustrated on Thursday
when, of 1874 issues traded
during the session, SAB ad-
vanced and 483 declined. Yet
all the popular market yard
sticks fell sharply due to losses
of these and some other blue
chips.
The market decline came in
the face of economic news
which was quite encouraging
on balance. Steel production
reached the highest rate in
more than a year. Living costs
in April were reported steady,
at a record level. Department
store sales and auto sales were
higher.
The five most active issues
this week on the New York
Stock Exchange were: General
Motors, off 4 at 4434 on 632,100
shares: AT&T, off AZ at 1915
on 235.000 shares; Standard
Oil New Jersey, up "a at

The cost of living is going
to climb in 1861 and climb
again in 1862.
This is about as certain a
forecast as can be made in
view Of the relentless rise in
the cost of services, the stiff
fening prices on many big
ticket items and the likelihood
that food prices will increase.
The shrinkage in the dollars
buying power probably will be
comparatively modest. The
hope is that the bite will be
well within the limit Of the 81
per cent average annual loss
| in the dollars value in the past
10 years.
If you are among the ma
jority of Americans, you can
live with this percentage of
loss.
In fact, unless you're un-
fortunate enough to be COM
pletely dependent on a small,
absolutely fixed income, or
stupid enough to keep your
cash savings under the mat
tress," you can beat this rate
of shrinkage fairly easily.
