f ODHEED ffffjri ENEEDS YOUi 9he Americans For America —America For Americans m m m m t BUY MORE WAR BONOS SIXTY-NINTH YEAR No. 28 CONGRESSIONAL HAPPENINGSIN WASHINGTON By CLARENCE J. BROWN Member of Congress Most of. the important legislative work of the past week took place in the Seriate, while the House more or less marked time, awaiting Senate ac. tion on a number of important bills now pending on the far side of the Capitol. The Seriate has amended the House version of the bill extending the Se lective Service Act so as to continue the draft until May 15th, .1947, and to permit the drafting of eighteen and nineteen year old youths after July 1 next. The Senate also enacted lcgis'-, lation to raise the pay of enlisted men in the armed forces. Army privates and able seaman in the Na -r will have ' their base pay raised from $50.00 to • $75.00 per month. The House, as will be' remembered, voted to extend the drafting only until February 15th, to require a holiday on inductions until October 15th and to prohibit the draft­ ing of boys under twenty, as well as fathers of minor children. Previously the .House had also approved legisla­ tion to give similar pay increases, to •enlisted men in the armed forces, and also a 'four hundred dollar a year pay boost to- commissioned officers. The differences between the House .and Senate versions of the bills will now have.to be worked out in conference committees and compromise measures approved by both branches of the Con­ gress by July 1st. Congress is expected to reduce air mail postage from eight cents to five cents within the next month, arid al­ ready plans are being made by the Post Office Department to greatly ex­ pand air mail facilities to meet the increased demand for such service from business concerns and others who are expected to at least double their use of air mail service. As a long range program the Post Office Department is hoping within two or three years, to reduce air mail post, ago to three cents, and to transport practically all first class mail by air. ALONG FARM FRONT E. A. Drake, Co. Agricultural Agent •ttHIMIIIUUHHMyimHHHIH It now appears certain if the Price Control Act, under which OPA func­ tions is extended beyond the present dead line of June 30th, that present OPA activities and practices will be greatly restricted. The Senate Bank­ ing Committee has accepted most of the House amendments to the Price . Control legislation, arid in addition has written in a number of far reach. ' ing amendments of its own. Chester Bowles, following the unusual proced­ ure he established when the OPA leg. islation was. before the House, took the air last week to attack the Senate Committee action. The Price Control Bill and OPA activities will be under debate in the Senate this week. The Adminiscration is in a bud parliamen­ tary position on the measure. If no legislation at all is enacted, or if the President, should veto the drastically ..mended bill which will be sent to •im, then the present-Price Control A*ct will automatically expire on June 30th, and OPA will follow it into the discard. So the Administration is faced with the question of whether it Wants- to. accept the kind of price con­ trol legislation the Congress will en­ act, or whether it wants no legislation at all, and therewith the early ending of its whole pi ice control program. The appointment of Secretary of Treasury, Fred , Vinson, as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States has met with general approval in Congressional and other official circles. Mr. Vinson, a native of Louisa, Kentucky, rendered long service in the House of Representa­ tives, where he fwas a member of the important Ways and Means Commit; tee. "While in-Congress he was ap­ pointed Judge of the U. S. Court of Appeals, where he rendered, distin­ guished service, which resulted in him being named as Judge of the Special Court of Appeals set up to pass upon war problems. Later, Pf-esident .'Iciosevelt named him as Director of */ar Mobilization, or Assistant Pres- lent from which office President Tru- ;ian appointed hint Secretary of the .‘reasury.- Mr. Vinson is considered o be an able lawyer and jurist with onservative views; t)r. H. H; Abels Honored By Progressives Cedarville Progressive Club, was- founded five years ago, By Wednesday night of this week, President Truman will have to eithei* sign, ve.to or permit the Case bill to become law without his signature. In the meantime no final action will be taken on the President's emergency labor control legislation by tlie Con-' gress. Instead legislators will wait to see whether Mr. Truman was sincere in wanting to bring an end to labor, management disputes, not only dur. ing the emergency in which he found himself while the coal and rail strikes were on, but in the future as well. If the President signs the Case Bill, or­ ganized labor will become even more angry with hint than at present. If lie vetoes the measure he will un­ doubtedly ldose the support of the conservative element of the country, which has generally approved of his recent action in asking for strong c. mergcncy legislation in the rail and coal strike situation.

GRASS SILAGE SAVES GRAIN Grass silage making is recognized as one of the best methods of handling first cutting hay crop, particularly in wet seasons. Good silage can be made either by wilting the crojfto around 30 percent dry matter or by the ad­ dition of 150 to 200 pounds of ground ear corn per ton of green crop under wet conditions. Smaller additions will do for more mature crops in good weather. At the; experiment stations grass silage has been fed to replace half the grain which is customary fed to cows in late summer as pastures de­ cline. The cows receiving the silage held up better both in production and live weight than cows receiving twice as much grain. . , Cly e David, Osborn: Riedel, Barbara Lee, Yellow Springs Buttmann, Kathleen Rose, Osborn Stenger, Gregory Lewis, Osborn Skralskis, David Peter, Fairfield Angelas, .William Ellis, Alma, Mich.

Sulphate of ammonia is used- to supply the nitrogen content of commercial fertilizer. Other ship­ ments of practically all fertilizer materials were stopped a t a time when the plants were nearly empty. The picture is further darkened by the possibility that the government will allocate potash which will reduce the amount available. Since the un­ iversal practice is to fertilize the wheat crop, a shortage of fertilizer may reduce the acerage seeded this fall. • CLEAR SEWERS OF TREE ROOTS Tree roots often can be removed from sewers by putting copper sul. fate into the sewer above the stop, page: The chemical.slowly dissolves the roots, and they soon break away and pass down the sewer. Two or three pounds of copper sul- fate crystals may be put in through the sewer cleanout or through the toilet and flushed down, When the sewer is completely plugged by roots, redding or some means of opening it up to restore some flow through the root mass must be resorted to. Thereafter copper sulfate may be used.

Farmers and breeders of sheep should campaign for a law to require the vac­ cination 'of every dog licensed in the county. Not only sheep but adults can be exposed and should children develops the disease it probably would be fatal to them, We require vaccination of our child, ren against certain diseases; vaccina, tion in dairy herds and swine, so why not all dogs ? The cost is not excessive. A dog fancier will pay a big sum for a good bird dog or a hound and yet not insure the dog a- gainst rabies. ' Vaccination of all dogs Bhould be compulsory by law with a heavy pen­ alty if not done.
