There are, of course, some prece.

Of one or more of his opponents to

FDR's references to Martin, Barton

who were thwarting his program, Mr..

The audience would laugh and stomp

In many ways Mr.. Kennedy tries
to emulate FDR, for example, using
words like "non-politicar' to describe
his tours. What would FDR have done
to handle Halleck? Maybe he would
have pretended Halleck wasn't there.
What is more likely is that FDR would
have tried somehow to isolate him.

Food Retailers Ads
QuadrupIe, Professors
Double In 10 Years

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(CNS)-
Food manufacturers spent Sill bill
lion on advertising last year, an Agri-
culture Department report shows.
This was more than twice what they
spent 10 years ago.
Retailers spent more than four
times their 1850 advertising bill
$267 million. This increase is attrib-
uted to the increase in the number
of stores as we'll as in the corporate
size of each retail store.
Bakery goods, canned fruits, vege-
tables, and fish, and dairy products
are the most widely advertised, the
report says.
Agriculture Department statisti-
clans say the food industry spent
$414 billion to market food for
civilians last year-739o more than
in 1850 and go more than in 1860.
Last years labor costs accounted for
1870 of the total marketing bill,
charges 1919, profits
before taxes $50, and other costs
1870. The farmers share of last
years farm food dollar was 38c.

'Petted, Pumpered' Power Trust
Seeks Complete Monopoly: Ellis

ACKNOWLEDGMENT
Profit power companies want
to own and control all genera
ton, transmission and distribu-
ton of electric power in this
country, NRECA General Man
ager Clyde T. Ellis charged
last week.
These companies, in their effort
to obtain control, are being helped by
tax subsidies, guaranteed profits, and
monopoly franchises. AS result, Ellis
said, the companies are ''the most
petted, pampered and subsidized in
dustry in America"
The NRECA general manger spoke
at White Sulphur Springs, West Vir-
ginia, at a meeting of the Great
Lakes Association of Railroad and
Utilities Commissioners. On the same
Edwin Vennard, vice presi-
dent of the Edison Electric Institute,
charged that the Rural Identification
Administration is promoting govern
ment ownership of the electric power
business

lie power bloc in Washington has
gained control of the administration
of the funds appropriated by Con-
gress (for rural electrification) and
has diverted their use toward promot-
ing state ownership of the entire cleo
trio system in the United States and
placing it under political manage
ment. This is absolutely contrary to
the philosophy of the Rural Electri-
fication Act"
AS Ellis put it, Vennard and the
power companies are still singing the
same song, but 20 years later. Ellis
added that he was willing for the his
tory of the past 20 years to offer
any refutation needed.
"The same 1000 rural electric
systems have extended private
ownership of electric facilities to
million rural homes and institu-
tions," he said. "The rural cleo
tries are known throughout the
world as classic examples of democ-
racy in action. Scores of visitors
from other nations come to NRECA
each year-many of them sent by
the State Departmental study
the democratic organization and
operation of rural electric co-opera-
tiyes :"
In his closing remarks, Ellis said
the rural electrics would prefer to
end the ''power battle" All suppliers
should stop pouring resources into
'senseless type of shadow boxing
ne added. All should settle down to
The task of serving their own areas
and their own consumers to the best
Of their ability.

Complete Health
Care Study Planned
Under i. S. Grant

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(CNS)-
U. S. Public Health Service has given
Group Health Association of America
$4,000 to finance years study OF
group medical practice. The overall
goal, PHS officials say, is to improve
out-of- hospital health services, par
ticularly for the chemically i'll and
the aged.
With this money, GHAA will make
the first national study of group COM
prehensive medical services. George
Perrott, former PHS official, will
direct the study.
GHAA includes group medical
service plans whose subscribers pay
for comprehensive health care on a
regular prepaid basis. 1t also includes
individuals, labor unions, and insur-
ance companies.
The PHS grant to GHAA is one of
A financed under the 1861 Com
munity Health Services and Facilities
Act. Another grant was to Rip Van
Wrinkle Foundation of Hudson, N. Y,
to find out how group practice fur
nishes supplementary health services
in a rural community. Twenty-Five
doctors and dentists operate the Rip
Van Wrinkle Clinic. It's services in
clude home nursing, physical therapy,
nutrition counseling, social case-work
and dental hygiene.

Huffman Urges More
Resources Truininq

BOZEMAN-An adequate public
policy for resources ( conservation
needs in the future will come when
this nation has an informed and I'M
derstanding public. says DR.. Roy E.
Huffman, dean of agriculture at
Montana State College.
DR.. Huffman spoke on future con-
servation education during the 18th
annual convention of the Soil. Con-
servation Society in New York Au-
gust 26-29.
''The average citizen must have
an understanding and appreciation
of his dependence on land and water
resources and the effect his wants
and actions have upon Them" Dr.
Huffman said.
To bring about this understanding
will take much more than inserting
a conservation course some place be-
tween kindergarten and graduation
from college. He suggested that con-
servation education might be done by
weaving conservation facts and ideas
into the entire educational system
and by including some additional in
terpretations.
He pointed out that this can be
done in history, geography, econom-
les, sociology, philosophy, and the
biological and physical sciences.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The Presi
dents advisors are said to be pleased
with the results of Mr.. Kennedy's
first "non-political" tour in this very
political year and they are advising
another.
Republican leaders also profess to
be delighted that Mr.. Kennedy has
decided to risk his prestige in the
1862 elections. They believe the Dem
ocrats may lose Is to 25 seats in the
House. Such losses are frequent in
off-year elections and the Republican
high command does not see 1862 as
an exception.
If this should happen, the real
leader of the House would be Rep.
Charles Halleck. Even with the Dem
ocrats nominally in control, Halleck
is we'll on his way to de facto leader
ship, though in title he is only minor
ity leader. Any further diminution
of Democratic power would mean an
increase in Halleck's power.
Halleck is a self-described "gut
fighter with whom the President,
thus far, has not been able to come
to terms. Whereas the Senate Re-
publican leader, Everett Dirksen of
Illinois, is good-natured, easy-going
rather tired opponent, who for poll
tical reasons does not want to offend
Mr.. Kennedy's allies in Chicago. Hal
leck dislikes everything associated
with the phrase "liberal Democrat"
for which Northern Democrats claim
to stand. To their obvious irritation,
he also insists that Democrats belong
to the Democrat" Party, not the
Democratic Party.
There are many liberal Democrats
who would like to see the President |
personalize his remaining political
and "non-political' tours by making
1862 contest of Kennedy VS.. Hal |
leck.
In this way, they believe, he would |
dramatic the issues of Republican |
"obstructionism" and "stand-pat- |
tism." Liberal Democrats are con-
cerned that by the time November
rolls around the effects of Presiden-
tial glamor might wear off, for ex-
ample, in Colorado where Sen. John
Carroll faces hard fight, and in Cali
fornia and South Dakota which Mr..
Kennedy also visited.
On the other hand if 1862 is
remembered as the year of Ken
nedy VS.. Halleck then '1ocap con-
gressional contests take on a ma
tional dimension. Democrats can
work up a head of steam about
Halleck.
Why Halleck, rather than Gold
water or Dirksen? Put briefly, Gold
water is too personable to endow with
atanic qualities; Dirksen is still re-
;arded as the 'Ewizard of ooze,"
ymusing rather than alternating. But
Ialleck is so sdisparaging in his atti-
ude towards non-Dixiecratic Demo-
rats that he can easily be made the
illain in Democratic eyes, without |
xaggeration. There is no danger
hat anyone will accuse Halleck of
eing "soft on liberalism"
There are, however, some risks for
Ir. Kennedy in pursuing such a
curse. Halleck will fight back and
e won't use cream puffs. He will ask
Thy Mr.. Kennedy does not get better :

The consumer-owned systems

general manager continued. eve
believe rural people have right
to organize and operate their own
electric systems if they want to
do it that way-and millions of
them had to do it that way to get
power at all"
Ellis went on to say that the rural
electrics believe federal power should
be marketed intelligently land some
times this requires that it be inte-
grated with other sources or firmed
up. We agree with the long-standing
policy of the federal government not
to sell power directly to retail con-
sumers except in isolated cases :"
