What Next:

Professional rodeo today dis
closed the first major scandal in
its competitive history.
The board of directors of the
Rodeo Cowboys Association said
they had found 21-year-old Paul
Mayo, leading contender for
1855 bareback bronc riding
championship, guilty of cheating
in competition.
Mayo, from Grinnen, Ia, and
r. c. Judge" Tolbirt, 25, Col
umbus, Tex, a rodeo secretary
also found guilty on the same
charge, were both suspended in
definitely from the cowboy as
sociation, and fined $500 each.
Mayo's name was stricken from
the championship title standings
as well.
Riding judges Don Feddersen
and George Martin discovered
Tolbirt cheating in Mayo's favor
during official drawing of buck
ing stock for the Memphis, Tenn,
rodeo in mid-September.
The fix was reported by the
judges to R.C.A. officials who
then placed Tolbirt and Mayo
under bond pending formal hear
ing before the full board of d.
rectors at their regular fall
meeting which opened yester-
day at the San Francisco Cow
Palace.
Tolbirt admitted his guilt. He
said Mayo instigared the plot
to provide the Iowa cowboy with
the best bucking horses at ro-
deos where he, Tolbirt, was en-
ployed as arena secretary.
Mayo denied all charges. but
evidence examined by the board,
contesting cowboys themselves,
resulted in both men being found
equally guilty.
In discussing the cowboy tri-
bunaPs disciplinary action. RCA
president Dale Smith said last
night, 'Rodeo compstition must
be kept on the up and up. The
board acted in the best inter
ests of the sport in imposing
these penalties. The whole mess
was a low blow to all of u.s."

star san Mfite-
It could only happen to
Pauline Innis.
She was flying over the
Alaskan tundra in q Grum-
man Goose looking for wild
swans and thinking Of q pet
pig in Devon.
But with this imaginative
and whimsical author, 1t all
seems to hang together some
how. She talks as she writes
this gentle-born English
woman with laughing blue
eyes and q contagious smile.
Research
A year ago, Mrs. Innis was
doing research In Alaska for
q book on swans. Her quest
was a lonely and almost
fruitless one as the aircraft
winged over the barren tun-
dra.
Suddenly inconsistencies
swept over her and her
thoughts returned to her
childhood home in Devon
and the World War II ex-
periences she, her family and
neighbors lived through.
The pig in Devon" was no
ordin airy pig. She was 16-
year-old Pauline's War Eff
fort and her name was Err
nestine. It wasn't long before
Pauline, her grandmother
and aunt-and even q reluc-
tant maid-made q ia mily
pet Of Ernestine.
They were not unmindful
that in return for her food
rations from the Ministry Of
Food, Ernestine was someday
destined for the pork factory
and the tables Of their meat
rationed fellow Britons.
But Ernestine had other
ideas. She had a mind Of her
own. She outwitted the Min
istry.
As these memories flooded
back. Mrs. Innis jotted them
down, ION those bits Of paper
you find in hotels and in air
planes" and they became a
book.
The book, entitled "Ernes-
tine, Or, The Pig in the Pot
ting Shed" (Robert B. Luce,
Inc. $685. and cleverly illus
trated by Tim o by Evans,
made its debut in the book
stores yesterday.
Though she has authored
another book, Hurricane
Fighters" Mrs. Innis feels a
proprietary interest in "Er-
nestine."
This one I wrote for my
self and not for the pub
Usher, and told him So" she
said brightly, adding that
"he looked at me kindly and
said he understood q frus-
trated mother instinct when
he saw one"
New Book
The book Is an amusing
chronicle Of Pauline's efforts
to raise q pig in a converted
garden potting shed for the
War Effort" and Ernestine's
encounters with neighbor-
hood pets and people,
charmingly personified in
Mrs. INNS easy style.
Having finished q book she

enjoyed doing. Mrs. Innis has
embarked on a new book she
says "the publisher wants
and I like" It win be called
Swans, Space and stars"
and will show that swans
navigate partly by celestial
bodies"
Mrs. Innis' marriage four
years ago to a retired United
States Navy aviator, Rear
Admiral Walter Dean Innis,
spanked a new interest in the
workings Of the Ameriean
Navy and reawakened q fas-
cination the Washingtonian
has always had for the sea
and the weather.
When she heard about the
work of the Nays famous
Hurricane Hunter Squadron
in the Caribbean during q
trip there she wanted to see
firsthand what 1t was like. So
she flew with the squadron
through Hurricane Abby In
July, 1860, and was made IAN
honorary haze gazer." The
result was her book, "Hurri-
cane Fighters"
A believer in the old adage
a writer should know her
subject, Mrs. Innis is an in
veterate researcher. She has
been aboard q Polaris sub
marine and is also writing q
young adult fiction novel
about it. And now her latest
venture has taken her to
Alaska.
She first became interested
In the subject after observing
and adiniring the whistling
swans that come to Mary
lands Eastern shore from
November to March. She
typifies them as "the true
North American wild swans"
Little did she realize where
her research would lead her.
eff I was going to write
about them, I thought 1t
would be nice to see the 9TH
er half Of tn cir life," she
said. "They nest near the
Arctic circle, I found out.
but didn't have much else to
go on"
So Mrs. Innis was off for
Alaska.
"Alaska's bigger than I
thought" she said, then add
ed with typical British I'M
reinstatement, that she criss-
crossed over a 11.000-mile
area for 81 days looking for
my wild swans nests"
HelicOpter, Too
In her quest, Mrs. Innis
said she took every mode Of
transportation including he'll
icopter, small planes and
even the Alaskan Railroad
from Anchorag e to Fair
banks, riding in the engine
cab so I could take pictures
of the countryside"
Before she found her
swans, she laughingly re-
called, my husband thought
this was a wild goose chase
instead of a serious swan
hunt"
Then glancins fondly at q
copy Of her new book with q
pig looking out contentedly
from the cover with a flower
in its mouth, she said: But
Ernestine ! like best"

Other Programs

Adoption Of these new Fed
eral programs would not affect
the independence or the vital
ity Of the people Of Random
Village, no more than the other
Federal programs their repre-
sentatives in Congress helped
enact - programs which are
also a part Of the domestic
budget. programs which must
be continued.
We must continue our hous-
ing and urban renewal pro-
grams. for example - because
one-fifth Of the houses in RAN

dated"
We must continue our well
fare programs because one
out OF every eight families in
the village has an income OF
less than $35 a week.
We must continue our Job
retraining programs - because
roughly one-third of the I'M
employed in Random Village
will be out OF work for is weeks
or more and simply cannot
find openings for which they
are suited.

some have suggested for this
year, and as was true in 1855
a recession could not have been
avoided. just as 1t was not
avoided in 1858.
In that year, q stretch-out
of defense and other contracts,
required in part by an I'M
realistic debt ceiling, caused
the lay-off Of many workers.
Those who lost their Jobs and
those who were fearful Of los
ing their jobs cut back on
their personal spending; re-
tailers trimmed their orders:
their suppliers reduced their
own payrolls; and so the
downturn continued, affect
ing in the end the incomes
which are the basis of most
Federal taxes. That budget
cut-back, consequently, was
followed not by the budgetary
surplus of $500 million which
had been forecast, but by a
deficit Of $12.5 billion - the
highest peacetime deficit In
the history Of our Nation.

Dillon Tells Senators

that the tax agency expects an

Cites AIbert's
Analysis of Cuts

1t is easy to say in theory
that large sums should be cut
from the budget. But. there
has been a notable absence OF
asbill Of particulars from those
proposing such cuts. Conse-
quently, Congressman Albert OF
Oklahoma made public his own
detailed ANALYSIS of what the
suggested SIS billion cut In
this years budget would mean
The results, though not widely
reported, were revealing to say
the least. A SIS billion cut moi
only would cripple our defense:
and make us permanently Sec
ond-best in space-it would
virtually turn the clock back
in every American community
For every million dollars In
the budget makes possible ef-
forts in hundreds Of local COM
munities-to cure cancer OF
curb narcotics or build rural
libraries or extend mail serv-
ice or feed hungry children.
The Federal Government Is
the people-and the budget Is
a reflection of their needs. As
the Nation grows larger. SC
does the budget-but non-
defense budget expenditures
are lower now in relation to
our gross national product
roughly Z per cent-than they
were Is years ago.
There is another aspect To
cutting the budget which goes
beyond the merits of each in
dividual item. And that is the
way in which Federal expend-
itureS. in much the same way
as Federal taxes. help determine
the level Of activity in the
entire American economy. This
is not some theoretical abstrac-
ton but a hard historical fact.
We all praise tax reduction be-
cause it releases" money into
the priavte sector-but so do
Federal expenditures: Through
contracts, salaries. purchases,
pensions. grants-in-aid. loans
and all the rest. To cut a dollar
Of expenditures for every dollar
Of taxes cut would be to remove
with one hand the stimulus
that We give with the other.
Recession Averted
Last year, for example, the
rate Of private inventory accu-
mutation suddenly dropped
from nearly 81 billion in the
first quarter-a high level due
in part TO the anticipation OF
a steel strike-to 81 billion in
the third quarter. The Amer
lean economy wavered under
this shock, but 1t did not fall
and a primary source OF steady
strength In the economy at
that time was the increasing
rate OF public expenditures,
Federal. State and local. Had
Federal purchases last year
been kept on a plateau-as
