Estes Grain Shortage
Sparks Probe Demand

Chairman Mcclellan, Democrat
Of Arkansas, has held open the
possibility of an inquiry into
Estes amazing success at
wangling grain storage con-
tracts from the Government,
collecting millions of dollars Of
storage fees in the process.
A House subcommittee is
looking into the grain deals
and plans to resume it's hear
ings Monday. The Senate group
has been concentrating on the
Pecos, CTex) financier's cotton
acreage allotment deals under
Federal farm aid programs.
Senator williams, Republi-
can of Delaware. injected the
new controversy about the
grain in Senate speech yes
terday.
He disclosed a report from
the controller generals office
that $4,000 bushels Of grain
were missing from warehouses
known to be owned by Estes,
1858 bushels from warehouses
in which Estes is believed to
have a financial interest and
7,150 bushels from facilities
owned by Coleman D. Nc
Spadden, an Estes associate.
The Agriculture Department
replied in a statement that
Senator Williams was drawing
erroneous differences from
fragmentary facts"
The so-called 68,OOO-busheI
shortage reported by Senator
Williams represents two-tenths
of l per cent of the total stored
in Estes houses" the statement
said. This is not considered a
shortage in normal grain stor-
age Technology"
Inspectors aking spot
checks measure only the VOL
ume of the stored grain, not its
weight, and the department
said "a tolerance of at least /
per cent is permitted as a mat
ter of course to allow for
shrinkage and errors Of meas
ure."
Then why, Senator Williams
demanded. is the Department
seeking to collect from Nc
Spadden's bondsmen for at
least part of the shortage, as
reported by the Controller Gen.
eral?
Both Senator Williams and
the Department noted that
losses are covered by payments
being withheld from Estes, plus
possible reimbursement from
his grain storage bonds.

The administration will
make its strongest fight on tax
deductions for entertainment
expenses when the tax revision
bill goes to the Senate foor,
officials said today.
Although an effort will be
made to revive President Ken
nedy'S proposal for withhold
ing taxes on dividend and in
terest income, officials admit
they lack the votes.
Similarly. the administra-
ton plans to make only a per-
functory effort on the Senate
floor to expand the proposed
subsidy for business invest
ments and to tighten sections
of the bill dealing with taxa
ton of foreign income,
Gives Tentative Okay
The Senate Finance Com
mittee tentatively approved its
much-amended version Of the
Administrations bill yesterday,
subject to a few possible
changes when the committee
meets next Friday to approve
the legislation formally.
No clear-cut estimates are
available of the measures i'm
pact on Treasury revenues. The
Senate committees version
probably would reduce revenues
by roughly $500 million in the
first full year. BY contrast, the
bill passed by the House would
boost revenues by an estimated
$l20 million.
The biggest difference be-
tween the two bills is the Sen
ate committees rejection of the
withholding proposal. w h n
the House passed the bill, the
Treasury estimated that with
holding would pick up $3.50
million of taxes that now are
evaded. The Treasury recently

it became apparent that he
would not hear from the

Office of Education requesting
another extension. 1t it is not

He will need an assessment
of the value of each school

which it is located. That is
yet to be done.
But the estimate of value OF
furnishings is also a necessary
part of his decision.
The six schools included in

Fight on Entertainment
Tax Deductions Slated

raised this estimate to $3.50
million.
In place Of Withholding. the
Senate committee adopted a
provision to tighten require
ments for banks to report to
the Treasury on interest pay
mentS.
The President proposed tight
rules on tax deductions for ex-
penseS of business entertain
ment, gifts and travel. and es-
timated his proposal would pick
up $3.50 million of revenue an.
nually.
The House eased these pro-
visions, but frightened the rules
enough to yield $l25 million
of revenue.
But the Senate committee
cut the heart out of the en-
tertainment section. It's provi-
sion would require only that
deductible entertainment eX-
penscs for business purposes
must be no more extravagant
than those that a prudent
man" might incur.
Seek Stricter Plan on Floor
Treasury officials suspect
that this provision might &C
tually loosen up present rules.
They are optimistic about
pushing through a more strin-
gent section on entertainment
on the Senate floor.
IL actions yesterday, the
Senate committee amended the
House bills provisions on tax
alton of mutual savings banks
and savings and loan aSsocia-
lions to yield an undetermined
additional amount of revenue.
One important amendment
would tax capital stock savings
and loan associations under
the same rules as commercial
banks, instead of under the
more liberal rules provided for
mutual savings banks.

Winter Core Of
House Plants

House plants need special atten-
ton during the winter, reminds
Assoc. County Agent Edward H.
Ralph They need protection from
cold drafts or injurious gases. Re-
move plants from window shelves
when outside temperatures are low
Watering must be done carefully.
Avoid over-watering, but provide
ample moisture and humidity.
Modern heating systems tend to
keep the air dry. Most house plants
need high humidity. To help i'm
prove the dry condition, place pans
of water on radiators. Plants can
also be placed on top OF gravel in
pans in which water just covers
the gravel. Group plants in one
area to help humidity. Plants that
require high humidity and are kept
in dry room may be helped tenn
porarily by placing in a plastic bag
for a few days or even weeks.
Since daylight is reduced in win
ter, keep Towering plants at points
where maximum light intensity and
duration exist. GA south window
Supplement daylight with artificial
light if you are interested enough
to go to the trouble and expense.
House plants do not need to be
fed as much in winter as in sum-
mer. Apply only half as much fer
tilizer but make the applications
just as often. Give the plants a
quarter turn each time they are
watered. Use tepid water for all
watering and feeding.
House plants require different
growing conditions. Study tn e
needs of each type and try to pro-
vide the best conditions possible.
