Farmers May Sign
Feed Grain Program

Two benefits available to farm
ers for participating in the 1868
Feed Grain program are income
protection and reduced production
costs, Arthur G. Fitzwater, chair
man, Agricultural Sterilization and
Conservation County committee,
said today.
He pointed out that the signup
for the 1863 Feed Grain program
now is underway, at the Asses
county office. The signup extends
through March %
The grower takes part in the
program by reducing his acreage
of corn, grain sorghum, or barley,
by at least 20 percent of the feed
grain base acreage.
The income protection comes
from the diversion and price-sup-
port payments, both of which are
based on the normal" production
of the farms feed grain acreage.
A farmer taking part in the
Feed Grain program also becomes
eligible to put his entire 1868 pro-
duction of corn, grain sorghum,
and barley under the regular price
support loan or purchase agree
ment.

COP. Committee
Discusses Loans
With Commissioners

Appearing before the County
Commissioners on Monday to dis
cuss the situation of the Oakland
Knitting mill in relation to further
possible loans through the Garrett
County Development corporation
to private companies, was Homer
l.. Bennett, member of the Re-
publican State Central committee.
Mr. Bennett, who said he had dis
cussed the subject with other
members of the committee. who
voiced approval of his remarks,
made several suggestions to the
Commissioners.
These included a complete audit
of the books of the knitting mill,
that findings of the audit be made
public, that all action by the Com
missioners on the proposed rec
reational project at Deep Creek
Lake be held in allegiance; that
public meetings be held by com
missionerS throughout the county
to allow them to gauge sentiment
of people and to give representa-
tives of Recreational Industries an
opportunity to answer questions
about the proposed project
The committee also stated
through Mr.. Bennett that in its
opinion governmental agencies
were not set up for the purpose
of benefiting directors of such
agencies directly. Such practice,
he believed, borders on conflict of
interest and were this practice to
be condoned, projects submitted
by persons other than directors
would be placed at a decided dis
advantage.
The committees recommendation
was that the commissioners con-
siGer no loan application from Rec
reational Industries, Inc. so long
as stockholders of the corporation
continue to serve as members of
the development corporation and
be in position to influence accept
ance of a loan to themselves.
This was the same thinking as
that stated some time ago by II
D. SWartzentruber, vice-president
of the commissioners
The suggestions and recon-
mendatiOns. presented to the COM
missioners had the signature of
Homer L. Bennett He said the
committee was not against the pos
sible project, but wanted no action
taken until several matters had
been cleared up.
The project under discussion is
that of a million dollar recreation
al area to be constructed, 65 per-
cent with federal funds, five per-
cent from state funds, five per-
cent from county funds and $780,
600 from Recreational Industries
and interested investment groups.

ticket holders. 1t was the larg-
est of eight possible paycffs on

bers were 1929.

pertly judged pace, which saw
him take the 3-year -old owned

regarded Doc Hobbs, the pro-
gram selector's choice to win
the race. and Culver Pick,
the same handicapper's pick for
third. Their withdrawal left
eight hunners and they churned

Silver Joe Ann in the third
also were excused because OF
coughing.
