MILFORD CHRONICLE MILFORD DELAWARE FRIDAY
A BREAK FOR NIXON

Political drama was reduced IN CallfOr-
MIA when former Governor Goodwin Knight
withdrew from the Republican gubernator-
ial primary race. Knight had planned, with
notable zest, "gloves-off" campaign against
Richard Nixon. He and the former vice
president had exchanged bitter charges last
fall, and it appeared that the primary con-
test would be highly interesting if not en-
tightening.
This will now have to be foregone. Since
Knight was Nixon's most formidable rival
for the nomination, the latter's changes are
markedly improved. Victory over his two
remaining opponents is not assured, but it
seems most likely.
Nixon's political future will be squarely
on the line, however, in November. 1t was
Governor Edmund G. Brown who handily
defeated Senator William Knowland for
Governor in 1858 Should Nixon suffer
similar fate, he would be virtually out of the
1864 presidential picture.

ing first-class and air mail
postage rates by cent.

second-class mailing rates fol

Chairman Johnston, Demo-
crat of South Carolina, said the
substitute provision calls for
three annual increases in the
second class rate - 4 per cent
a year on editorial content of
the periodicals and 10 per cent
a year on advertising content,
Subcommittee sources esti-
mated the higher first class and
air rates would bring in an
additional $3.50 million a year
in revenue; the second class
increase would yield about $2S
million more by the third year
Today the subcommittee
considers other postal rate pro-
visions before looking into q
proposed raise for postal work
ers expected to cost about 81

BY JOSEPH YOUNG
Star Staff Writer

A move may be made In
the Senate Civil Service Com
mittee to increase the proposed
pay raises for lower-salaried
Federal workers in the bill II
is considering.
Several members of the SEN
ate group feel the total two
phase increase Of 8 per cent
for those in the lowest grade
and only 4 or 5 per cent for
those in the next few grades is
not sufficient. The increases
range up to II per cent for
those in the upper grades.
The increase for the lower
salaried employees approved by
the House Civil Service Com
mittee is more than that in
the bill before the Senate COM
mittee. But the Senate proposal
takes into consideration the ad-
ministration's objection to any
meaningful raise for lower
bracket employees, since the ad-
ministration feels their pay al
ready compares favorably with
industry.
Yet at least several Senators
on the Senate Civil Service
Committee find it hard to just
ify giving postal clerks and
letter carriers a total raise of
IL per cent and up to IA per
cent for upper-bracket Fed
eral career officials, and give
a total of only 3 per cent to
the lowest paid Of all Federal
workers.
Incidentally, the Senate
group made considerable prog
ress yesterday in executive ses-
sion on the pay raise-postal
rate bill.
AS part of its plan to tie the
pay bill to the postal rate bill
already approved by the House
and thus send the combined
measure to House Senate con-
ference. the Senate group COM
pleted action yesterday on first
class and almost all second
class mail. 1t hopes to wind III
the postal rate part of the bill
today and then wrap up the
Federal and postal pay part to-
morrow.
Incidentally, Chairman John

Predict Change In
COttonSeed Oils
Stored Quality

Research for USDA's Agri-
cultural Marketing Service have
made it possible for the vege-
table-oil industry to predict
changes in the condition of stor-
ed cottonseed oils.
In a report recently issued,
marketing researchers explain
the methods and formulas which
can Gamble industry to predict
the condition of cottonseed oil
at any given point during stor-
age. Not only will this informa-
ton make it possible to calcu-
late the future value of stored
oils, but it will also eliminate
the risk taken in storing cotton
seed oil.
During the four-year study, it
was found that changes in the
characteristics which measure
quality of stored oils were relat-
ed to a time temperature fac
tor. Researchers discovery that
no significant changes occur
ed in the quality characteristics
when oils were stored in drums
or field tanks if the mean tenn
perature of the oil was below
so degrees Fahrenheit. Oil stor-
ed under similar conditions in
Chicago or New York suffered
less deterioration in four years
than did oil stored 3 years in
Los Angeles or New Orleans.

Delta Pasture
Crops Compared
In Farm STUDY

State College, Miss.-Coastal
Bermuda grass and crop residue
were found to produce cheapest
beef gains in a recent Delta
pasture study.
A. M. Heagler, Grady
Grove, and Fred T. Cooke, Jr.,
all USDA economists stationed
at the Delta Branch Experiment
Station, obtained their informa-
ton from commercial cow-calf
producers in the Delta. While
recognizing the value of crop
residue, they cautioned against
complete dependence on this
method of wintering beef cattle.
Some of their conclusions fol-
low:
Pasture cost per hundred
weight Of calf weight gain
ranged from a low of $2.15 on
crop residue to a high of 1884
on oats and ryegrass. Coastal
Bermuda cost was 1921, and
johnson grass and fescue slight
ly more than 5000 per hundred
weight. These calculations helm
to evaluate pasture crops. How
ever, carrying capacity, graz
ing period length, and utiliza-
ton per acre are of major i'm
portance when one pasture crop
is being considered as partial
or complete substitute for an
other. Especially is this true
when there is little difference
in the pasture cost per hundred
weight Of gain.
Theoretically, crop residues
may be used to replace fescue
in the fall and winter and oats
and ryegrass in the fall and
spring. But complete depend
ence on crop residues during
these months would prove dis
astrous during periods Of high
rainfall or ground covering
snow. Cooperators who were
using crop residue as a major
source Of fall, winter, and
spring grazing indicated that
small amount of fescue or oats
and ryegrass (l/8-1/4 acre per
brood cow should be MAIN
tanned as an inclement weather
safety factor"
