WRECK IGNITES Oil, . . . Firemen are battling an oil fire that was caused by the wreck of a fust Pennsylvania freight train at North East, Aid. Among the wrecked cars In the crackup were five tank cars r m- taining 35,000 gallons of fuel oil. The oil burnt into roaring flame and sent a blazing river towards a nearby residential section. More than 100 persons were hurri -diy evacuated from their homes In the path of the threatening flames as firemen from nine towns rushed to the aid of North East firemen in fighting the fire. No casualties were reported from the scene of the catastrophe. Railroad officials said the fire was caused by a hot box- .
On the School SceneBy Martha Swaney
Although the word September comes from the Latin word Sep, tem, meaning seven, we know that it is the ninth month of our calendar year. Perhaps you've wondered about this. This change came about when Julius Caesar added two months to the calendar year. Thus making September fall on the ninth month o f the year;
Summer ends and autumn begins on September 22- It is one o f the warmest months of the year but the nights are cool. September has a touch of golden haze which makes autumn so bea- tiful-
September is also a busy time on the farm. On Charlemagne's calendar it was called the “ harvest month* and to this d a y jt is stilL called that in Switzerland. The Anglo Saxons called it the “ barlev month".
Labor Dav is the only National Holiday in the month. The morning glory is the flower of the month and the sapphire is the g em .. . . .Martha Swaby Attends 4-H Club Congress

The ninth grade received additional nupil this week. Ronald Harris, of Clifton, was unable to enroll the opening week because he suffered a broken ankle while haulm? hay during vacation.Sports Views Indians Scalp Bulldogs
The Cedarville Indians made it two in a row by walloping the Bryan Bulldogs 6.-4 Friday afternoon at Cedarville, after they had defeated Ross 5-3 the previous Tuesday,
Walker’s “ warriors” started the scoring in the third when with two out Paul Vtst hit a stinging triple to center-field scoring Jim_Luttrell from second, who had previously singled- Vest then scored when Hoskett fumbled Tackett’s pop fly to shortstop.
The Indians scored two more runs in the fourth. Don Chesnut singled leading o ff the inning, and advanced to second on a passed ball. Jack Irvine was safe on. an infield hit, but the play was such that Chesnut could not advance. Then- following a double steal, Fredericks singled to right, scoring both men to give Cedarville a 4-0 lead.
The Bulldos jumped into the scoring column in their half of the fourth, scoring two runs with the aid of singles b~ Setwart and Batdorf.
Cedarville scored their final tallies in the fifth, as Vest tripled with no one on, and was brought home on Tackett's three- base knock. Jim Turnbull then brought in Tackett with a single. Chesnut also singled, hut after that Stewart settled down and retired the side.
Jn the last half o f the seventh, Bryan made their final bid for victor. Nickoson walked to start the inning, and.took second on Mercer’s sacrafice. Similar walked, and Stewart flew out, but Perry doubled driving in both men. Heidorn then fanned Williams to end the game.
Seven o f Cedarville’s eleven hits were collected by the following boys; Don Chesnut, three singles; Paul Vest, two triples; and Melvins Tackett, a triple and
a single. “ Hurricane” Heidorn struck out sixteen, walked seven, and allowed four hits in registering his first victory of the season fo r the Indian’s club. Stewart, the loser, struck out tight, issuing no passes, but gave up eleven h its.. « .F. H. A.— F- F. A . Fall Festival
The annual Fall Fair will be held Friday, October 7, instead of October 14, as announced in last week’s School News. The change in this date was made to avoid a conflict with the fall meeting of the County Teachers’ Association which will be held on October 14.

Last Tuesday our Senior Band took a trip to Cincinnati to hear the Ground Corps Band at Music Hall. The school bus transported 37 boys and girls on this occasion, leavirt * Cedarville at 10:80 a. m. and returnin'" about S u m .
On being questioned concerning his reaction to the trip, Micky Carzoo said, “ I thought it was very educational. The music was lovely, and the bus ..noisy going and coming; Of course, the girls, were noisiest,”
Joan Hammond thought the selections played by the band were verv beautiful and inspiring.
Jane Davis concluded that it was the best band she had ever heard, also the chorus, especially the soloist. The same opinions were echoed by JoAnn Sheeley.
Jeanne Houston summed up the trip as a very interesting experience, and I think all members of our band will agree with her sentiments. * . .Music Activities
“ Do, Re Mi, Fa, Sol.” Yes, we’re still tn*in«ri But “ we're” just girls this year. The hoys were left out o f the list o f C. H. S.’s noted singers, due to a conflict in the schedule.
Sixty girls have enrolled in Girls’ Chorus, and the girls plan to present different musical programs throughout the school year. The first appearance will be an operetta “ The Spanish Sweetheart.” Read your column for details! . . . .Junior Class Sales

Conditions in August indicated that United States farmefs .will produce a crop of 202 million bushels, or the second largest erop on record. Average production for the past 10 years is 148; million bushels. ..

On the three railroads operating between Cincinnati and Columbus but one— the New Yorx Central (Big Four)— has a forenoon train. Its No. 426, which continues via Columbus from Cincinnati. is the only morning train.
XA good many years ago the B. & O. dropped its morning train,- and now the Pennsylvania has removed ' its train, too.

4 Year Old Child Is Polio Victim Here
Richard Allen Jones. 4-year- old son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Jones Cedarville, is reported by Dr. Donald F. Kyle, Cedarville, as Green Cpunty’s fourth polio victim this year.
The child, a Negro, was in Children’s hospital, Columbus, for observation, was brought home recently but then returned to the hospital Sunday when his case was diagnosed as anterior poliomyelitis. There is, paralysis in both legs, it was said,
Your Share of War Costs Is
Your share will he about $10., That, mind you, is your sKare,
and everybody else’s share will be $10 each*. •
“ Not little Karen? She won’t owe $10 will she?”
“ Not only little Karen, but little Willie and Tommie and Katie and Sallie—everybody .will have to. kick in $10.”
For What?To help pay the cost of the first
year of America’s military assistance to the European nations with which America recently entered into an alliance. "
“ But what’s it for? Why does it cost so much money? Won’t the government nay it? We won’t have to, will w e?”
The first three words in the Constitution defines the “ government” as “We the people.” So when the government pays for anything “we the people” pay for it; and in the case of buying arms .and war preparations and defenses for Europe,* “ We the people” have to pay $10 each for only the first year’s expenditures.
Cost to Ohio's taxpayers would be about $81,620,000, it is pointed out.
The arms program, now awaiting Congressional approval, would require a sum “qual to the cost of operating all Ohio welfare institutions. for two years or near- ., ly four' times the cost of operating- all state universities in Ohio for one year.
Ohio taxpayers’ share is 5.83% of the total cost, as that is the proportion of federal taxes the state pays The total cost of the first year’s program is estimated at $1,400,000,000. (The eight ciphers are the easiest'nart; it’s the 1 and 4 that hurt the most.)
This is in addition to $450,000,- - 000 in war surplus armament USA is pledged to pay in providing western Europe with means # of protection against aggression.
Government borfowing is inescapable, as no method of raising the money* ate suggest-e ed in the legislation. There _ is no time limit set on the operation of the arms-surmlv and students o f the situation point out that it is reasonable to presume the $10-per-head cost of arming Europe could easily be stretched out over the entire 20-year period of the treaty.
Nearly 1,000 On Old Ag<In County
According to Harry Mairtin, head of the. department of aid for the. aged ijx, .Greene county 945 persons in the county are Receiving old-age pensions.
Oil the basis o f county population that is about* one to 50, Martin calculates.
The office is still accepting applications, and “ there seems to be no tightening of requirements,” the staff head says.
According to Martin the state approval of claims sent in from Greene county has been almost without exception rapid and final.
Maximum monthly payment is $55, as against $30 in prewar times. Payments can not be made to persons under 65 years of age.
Significantly the Xenia officer mentions that the lowest number of applications comes from this area of Greene county, where, he reasons, “ there ■ a heavy rural population which tends to accumulate more property and * savings than urban residents.” •
Corn Crop, to Be Largest
The 1949 corn crop will be the second largest in history, according . to estimates by the department of agriculture.
• The estimate is for 3,525,741,- 000 bushels, which is more than 12,500,000 bushels short of the estimate a month ago. The record- was set in 1948 with 3,650,548- 000 bushels. The 10-year average is 2,787,628.000 bushels.-
The 1949 wheat crop .is the fourth largest ever grown, the department says. In bushels the crop is estimated at 1,129,081,- 000 which shows that again “ porn is king.” ..
Enrollment in the first grade of Xenia schools is 225.

On the School SceneContinued from Page One
school would start!Neverless, -we surely were ex
cited the morning’ that bus No. 6, driven bv Bill . Osman, caused us
,to report a half-hour late to our "first period classes.
W e even went so fa r (honest confessions are good for the soul, they say) as to think that we might get to go on the second load the following morning. But Bill Fisher (with the co-operation o f our bus) fixed the difficulty which had been the brakjs, and we were transported to our homes that same evening, as usual.
It .sms a co-incident that the delay occured on the opening day o f the squirrel-season, thus cheating some o f our friends of this unusual experience. Better luck next time to our hunter friends.

Johnny Fa.rrell once said. “ But we putt for money.” I wonder how many dollars have been lost by putts, short putts that just slipped by the edge of the tin cup, possibly a half inch out of line? Or
the putts t h a t stopped an inch short? Or the putts that rimmed the cup?
A venerable golfer at the age of 7Q w o u l d consider himself a poor fish if he missed, a two- footer or even a
Grantland Rice three-footer. But consider what has
happened to Ben Hogan and to Sammy Snead—to Cary Middlecoff and to many, many others high up.
I recall a masters tournament just a few years back. Ben Hogan was playing the final hole. He needed a 4 to tie the' leading score. Ben hit a great drive—some 260 yards up the course. Taking out a 5 iron he almost hit the pin, the bait trickling some 12 to 15 feet past the cup. This left him a tricky, downhill putt but easy enough for his 4. He tapped the ball lightly. He seemed to be heading for a 3. But the ball ran over the rim of the cup and stopped some 24 inches below. This looked to be simple enough. But as the return putt came to the cup It veered off a hail an inch and Hogan had a 5. He has yet to win the masters.Two months later, in June, Hogan
again needed a 4 to tie in the playoff in the U.S. open at Canterbury, Cleveland. Again he hit a magnificent drive. His iron to the green just slipped by the pin again and stopped 15 feet beyond. Again Ben went for his birdie 3 and again he slipped 24 inches past. And again he missed the short one—two short putts under three feet that cost him two major championships in less than two months.
You can understand Why great golfers dread short putts—any putt of any length,
Sammy Snead has blown more short putts that cost him heavily than any star I know. Only Sam doesn’t wait for the last green. It might happen'any- where along the line. With one
* of the greatest all-around games golf has ever known, Snead can look back on many a green with a sad shake of his head. The short one he missed at St. Lonis in the Open on the final green—the short one he missed again for the Open in Chicago—three putts from 10 or 12 feet at Tam O’Shanter in the big May’s money tournament.In the St. Pete Open, I saw Snead
almost hit the pin with his second on a 500-yard hole. He had a 10- footer for a 3. He putted two feet over. He missed that one.
We have often wondered how a star golfer felt who had hit two great shots requiring power and skill, control and timing, only to push or stab a two-foot putt and undo all the fine play he had used making shots far - more difficult.
But putting isn’t so much a matter of skill—at least not always. It Is also a matter of nerve control. Strength has nothing to do with it, A veteran o f '70 has skill enough to be a fine putter—as good as many of the better pros. I’ve seen a few of those old codgers from 60 and up at work. Some of them can't understand how any one can miss q five-foot putt;
* * *.The .300 List
The .300 hitter, in spite of the lively ball, and a slump in pitching, has regained his old place. A .300 hitter today is on the scarcer side. How many would you figure there are now at work in the two leagues?
In the two big leagues there are at .least 75 players on each side, not counting pitchers, who have been at bat more than 300 times. From this list we discovered exactly 11 ball players in each circuit who had reached the .300 mark, or better, with five or six others who bad a good Chance to make the grade.It might also be noted that five or six are so near the .300 mark they may fall out before the season ends.Jackie Robinson is almost cer
tain to lead the National. He haa>sj been between .360 and .370 the greater part of the year.
Country Slaughter a n d * Red Schpendlenst' of the Cardinals are the next two* authentic .300 hitters in the older circuit where they have been nesting between .320 and .330. Marshall, Thompson, Lockman, Muslal, Hodges, Kiner and Gordon are over .300, but they can’t afford to do any slipping through September. Musial has been putting on a desperate scramble to reach a much higher mark, but Stan has found the traveling much rougher than it was last year. He has been over 40 points away from his 1943

Over tw enty years ago, the Congress o f the United States passed the Railway Labor A c t. It was hailed by union leaders as a mode! fo r the settlem ent o f labor disputes.
Th e l e a d e r s o f the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, Brotherhood

They insist that they be the sole umpire o f their own disputes over the meaning o f contracts.
There is no Need for StrikesW ith all o f the available methods for the interpretation o f contracts, there is. no need for a strike or even a threat o f a strike, but the leaders o f these railroad nninna .have ignored the ordinary- procedures established by law and insist upon imposing their own mterpretations o f their contracts b y means .of h Strike.

There is an established legal method for handling disputes involving existing written contracts—just as there is such a method o f settling any contract dispute which you may have in youy daily life.
The President o f the United States appointed a Fact Finding Board to investigate and adjust the Missouri Pacific dispute. Titis Board reported, in part, as follows:

We saw a picture o f Santa Claus in a magazine ad the other day. When that ol’ feller's picture begins to show up me just surrender, that's all! The rest of the year isn’ t worth a nickel, so far as time is concerned, but it’s about 100 davs until he soots up the place in coming down the chimney, and 100 days of living in the USA and Greene county and among folks like ours make more than 1,000 years in the tents o f wickedness that dot other portions o f the globe.STOP FOR BUSES
Remember—the life o f one child means more than all the time all the people in the world might save by hurrying. Which means stop when a school bus has stopped. No law on the hooks is more meaningful than the one requiring motorists to stop when school children are entering or leaving a bus. Children o ften run around in front or behind a bu3. Safety means waiting until the youngsters are o ff the road, or even in the yards o f their homes, before cars move. This is safety. This is reasonable. This is sensible. This is courteous. This is love of fellowmen,NEW BRIDGE IDEA
Here and there a new kind of bridge is being installed. Instead o f the usual steel and concrete structures, corrugated iron tubes are used. As many tubes as necessary are installed. The bridge can he short or long depending on the amount of water' that has to be carried under it. Motorists speed over these tubes, filled in with stone and dirt, ancl don’t know there is a bridge there.FLYING TIGERS
There are other things in the air besides flying saucers that natives see by night and telephone the newspaper office. Ever heard of fiying tigers? The air is full o f them, in spots. (No, come to think of it, that would be leopards.) Just the other day a man in Dallas shipped a pair o f tigers, itty-bitty baby tigers, by airplane to New York. From the zoo. So, i f some night you are seeing things in the sky, and if it happens to yawn or shake itstail, don’t get excited and call us— it’s probably just a “ tagger” taking a plane trip.THERE’S ALW AYS A LAW
It’s a sad world. Just about the time you think you’ve really got something, somebody throws A1 Sesslar, for instance. Good ol’ a derail and you’re wrecked. Take A1 had it all worked out. He was amusing folks no end, and incidentally raking in nickels and dimes all ends. A1 is a Clovis, N. M., thinker-upper. There are horned toads in and around Clovis. A1 managed horned toad races. Men and money, women
.and more money poured in. Then came the strong arm o f the law, with a new statue making horned toad races illegel—from now on, that is. The past is the past, with proud horned toads that won, and somber horned toads that lost, and folks that bet on ’em in exact ratio.POPULATION IIP

The Psalms We SingLesson for September 25, 1949
F’ WOULD be a most unusual person who on his; dying bed would
turn to the 23rd chapter of I Chronicles and not to the 23rd Psalm. If the reader will think, of his own favorite passage of Scripture, and then look them up in some edition which prints the Bible in a modern format, he will discover that his favorite p a s s a g e s are p r o b a b l y a l l poetry.
• * ft-Poetry’s PowerW HY the appeal of poetry? For
one thing, it is vivid, It is in colot's, not severe black and white. It lives and breathes, at times it shouts, and it always sings.
It Is true to say "The providential oversight of the Creator Is continuous and unremitting;’ * but it is more effective to say, “ The Lord is my shepherd.” It would be true to say, “ The evidences of creative and beneficent purpose can be seen throughout all the orders of nature;” but how much more vivid is the 14Sih Fsalm, calling on hall and fire, sun and moon and stars of light, to praise the Lord!Another secret of poetry’s power
is that it is the language of emotion. Professors and theologians may be saying the same things as the poet, and maybe even saying them more completely and accurately; but what they say is less easy to remember.
So these emotional Psalms will always appeal, even to the professor when off duty, because they make us feel religion and not merely think it.
* ft'Pictures o f G odSO IT IS no wonder the Psalms
have been loved and sung all over the world. We are perhaps the only religion that has made so much use of another religion’s hymn book. Different though our faithp may be, Jews and Christians can sing from the Psalter with' one voice and heart.
For centuries It was the hymnal of the Christian church. Indeed, up to recent years some l a r g e denominations would allow in public worship the singing of no other songs than the Psalms. ;Many of our best hymns and pop
ular gospel songs, as we have already seen, are based on Psalms. “ Rock of Ages, cleft for me.” “ A Shelter in the Time of Storm," “ Hiding in. Thee,” — they all go back to the Psalmist’s picture of God as a Rock (Ps. 42;9). The Psalmist was not thinking of a little rock In a cornfield. He was thinking cf some tall crag in the fierce hot landscape o f his country.
A rock there is a landmark, it is a shelter against the blazing sun, people could live under its overhanging height.
So God is the landmark of life, he gives direction to our ways; he Is the shelter on life’s . weary journey, he Is our safe dwelling.So with the many other pictures
of God in the Psalms—he is light, he is shade, he is the guard on duty at night watching over the sleeping city (Ps. 121); he is a shepherd, he is water for the thirsting soul (Ps. 42.)
* * •A M odel Hymnal
F1 IS true that few Christians today can use in worship all of
the Psalms, without omissions or changes. It is also true that practically all Christian churches find that the Psalms, by themselves, are inadequate to express all there is in Christian experience, faith and ideals.
The Christian hymn, entirely independent of the Psalms, has long since come into its own. And yet the Psalms remain the model hymnal. For in them beauty and truth are blended.
This should be the ideal of all Christian hymn and song hooks. Some of onr modem “ hymns” as well as some older ones, are bad because they are no better than jingles, —doggerel, dbt poetry, and often sung to tunes better suited to a Juke box; and some are bad because they convey either nonsense or downright falsehood.But the great hymns, and the
best hymnals, are those which like the Psalms of old, combine profound truths about God and man, duty and destiny, with stately, stirring and singable music, aglow with the beauty and power of words.

CLARENCE J. BROWN Writes
With a Buckeye In Gon err ess .
In spite 'of the bickerings going on between union leaders and the steel industry, it is still hoped and expected in Washington that a steel strike will be averted. However, there is a growing fear in official circles that a coal strike is in the offing. Crafty and ruthless John L. Lewis has had his coal miners working but three days a week, producing only enough coal to meet Summer needs, but not enough for industry to store up a reserve supply. As a result Lewis will he in position, when cold weather comes, to cripple American industry and, if a strike is called, to enforce his demands for a new*
' employment contract.Eight important understand-^
ings or agreements were reached during the conference, which closed last week, between British Caradian and American officials in the effort to solve Britain’s economic and financial difficulties. First: Britain will now be permitted to spend lier Marshall Plan dollars elsewhere than in the United States, as previously required. Second: Britain will buy less American oil and sell more of her own Near East oil to markets now supplied by this country. Third: British ships will carry more Marshall Plan and other American goods to Europe, and American ships less. Fourth: American synthetic rubber policy will soon permit Britain selling more natural rubber to the United States, probably at a higher price. Fifth: Britain will now be permitted to discriminate a - gainst American goods in the “ pound sterling” countries, making more difficult the sale of American products therein. Sixth: American officials will try to lower tariff walls, if Congress will permit, so British goods can compete more freely in this country with domestic commodities. Seventh: America promises to buy more British tin for strategic stock-piling at the present artificially high price o f $1.03 per pound. Eighth: The United States dollars, furnished them as American Marshall Plan aid, for the purpose o f goods in Canada, while in turn, Canada will have more dollars with which to buy in the United States.
As a sequel to the British- Canadian-American Conference, which closed early last week, officials of the World Bank and Monetary Fund, are now meeting in Washington with representatives of many countries The chief topic of discussion is the devaluation of foreign currencies to more realistic figures. The exchange value of the British pound sterling is expected to soon be drastically reduced from its present $4 03 with the rumored new value to be $3.22. The French franc which for years was valued at 20 cents, or five to the American dollar, and is now down to .36 o f one cent, will probably drop to .30 of a cent, or to 330 to the dollai*. All European currencies are scheduled .to he devalued from 20 to 25 per cent, i f present plans w o r k o ut . Strangely, the German mark, the Netherlands guilder, and the currencies of the Scandinavian countries, will continue to have the highest values in American money, outside o f the British pound.
Official figures show there was a pickup in business and industrial activities during August and a slight reduction in unemployment figures. As a result there is more optimism in the business world, and great rejoicing by, and much publicity from, Administration leaders. Dr. Nourse, Chairman of the President’s Board o f Economic Advisors, along with many business leaders, predicts business activities fo r the balance o f 1949 will he good, but cautions it 'is still impossible to judge what economic conditions will prevail in early 1950.
Back in 1944, when war shortages o f oil existed and the fu ture supply questionable, Congress appropriated $6 million for government research .on the production o f oil from shale, and established a reseach plant near the huge oil shale deposits at Rifle, Colorado. Now—five years later—comes the p :y -off. Government experts say they can now produce crude oil from shale at a cost as low as $2.20— and not over $2.50—iper barrel. Tbday crude oil from wells is selling at $2,50 per barrel. In the Colorado deposit alone there is enough shale to produce seven times as much crude oil as the total the United States has produced since the first oil discovery some ninety years ago. The one Colorado shale deposit near Rifle holds twenty-two times more recpver- able oil than now contained in all the proven petroleum reserves of the entire United States. There are additional huge oil shale deposits in Colorado and other Western States. Several large oil 'companies have already established experimental plants for the production o f crude oil from shale. Thus America’s future oil supply, at a reasonable price, seems assured.
With huge suplies of processed pork in storage, heavy hog popu
lation on the farms o f the nation, and an indicated drop in the price of corn and other feed, the Department o f Agriculture has announced a change in its price- suppoTt program in an effort to escape the responsibility of maintaining, as is seemingly provided by law, a fixed minimum price for hogs in individual markets. Under the new program the Government will attempt tto keep “ average” hog prices, on the farm, from dropping below the support level set by law. Under this new program it will be possible, however, for hog prices to go below Government price support guarantee in some markets, and above in others. A monthly
and weekly price support guide fo r the different chief market areas is expected tot be issued by the Government. The’ average support price for top erade hogs, as set for September, will be $18.- 50 pe hundred, until the 24th, and $18.25 for the remainder of the month

Dairy Herd Spraying Will Yield Dividends
M ay Mean $75 Etfiia Profit This Summer
Spraying dairy aows with nie- thoxychlor to control blood-sucking stable and horn flies, may mean at least $75 extra profit this summer, according to H. B. Petty, insect specialist In the Illinois college of agriculture. And the chances are good, he says, that profits from spraying may run much higher.
Spraying dairy cattle is a big job for farmers, but it is one that should be done.
Petty figures the potential $75 extra profit from spraying in this
COULD BE!This story has trickled in from
Canada. Daddy was teaching darling daughter to fish. The four-year old sat patiently holding the pole, baited hook and bated breath. She watched how daddy did it, or was ready to do it when Brer Bass finished his rehearsal of the funeral march past his hook. Suddenly the lass threw down the pole and said: “ I quit!” Daddy asked, “ What's the matter, honey; don’t you like to fish?” Straightening a pair o f pigtails on her shoulders, Mar—, the little girl that is, said: “ Oh, yes, I like to fish, but I don ’tseom to get waited on.” )

REPORTSpraying dairy cattle is a big
job for farmers, but It will help build the type of clean, “ contented” dairy herds such as that shown here.
manner: You can get 15 per cent more milk up to September if you spray. This has been demonstrated by careful small-scale field tests.
It is generally estimated that the average cow will give 1,700 pounds of milk during the four-month fly season. A 10 per cent boost — instead of 15 per cent — would mean 170 pounds of milk for that time. For a 15-cow herd, that would mean 2,550 pounds of extra milk from fly-control.
Figured conservatively at $3 a hundredweight, that’s just under $75 more in milk checks. And it costs only about 20 or 25 cents a head for spraying.
Petty recommends spraying the Inside of dairy barns two or three times during the summer. He suggests that the formula used provide for one pound of 50 per cent me- thoxychlor-wettable powder in two to four gallons of water to every 1,000 square feet of surface.
Dairy cattle should he sprayed with methoxychlor every two to four weeks to control horn flies. The formula is one-half pound of 50 per cent powder in three gallons o f water and apply one quart to each cow.

BY SENATOR ROBERT A. T4FT
CONGRESS has just extended the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act, which permits the President to make
agreements with a foreign nation reducing the tariff on imports into the United States in consideration of a corresponding reduction of American exports to that country. The difficulty with the program is that it gives the Presidentalmost unrestricted arbitrary au-" thority to reduce tariffs without any standard whatever in the law.This means that he could have power in many cases to destroy an American., industry by permitting the importation - o f foreign goods of low cost because of the very low wages paid foreign workers. It is a complete abandonment p fthe legislative power of Congress with relation to the levying of tariffs.
1 do not favor the return of the old log-rolling process by which Congress itself undertook to fix tariffs, because that process produced tariffs that were unnecessarily high. I believe, however, that tariffs should be scientifically fixed upon some principle approved by Congress.
Just as Congress adopts the principle of reasonable return on railroad property, and gives the Interstate Commerce Commission, power to fix the actual rates, we should state clearly the basis for American industry, agriculture and mining, and let the Tariff Commission fix the actual rates.Under the Reciprocal Trade
Agreements Act, on the contrary, the'President, or rather the State Department, can reduce rates in a treaty with some other country as he'wishes, receiving in return a concession from the foreign country on American goods. But the moment that agreement is made every other country in the world gets the benefit of the American reduction without making any concession itself. There is no reciprocity from those countries.■ The process is not really one ;of reciprocal trade, it is one of . delegating to the President the power practically to eliminate tariffs. Furthermore, most of the Concessions we get on naner to
day are nullified because so many of these countries are short of dollars to buy American goods anyway.The President can reduce the
rates to about 25 per cent of the statutory tariff. As a matter of fact the average rate on imports which carry a tariff at all is now only 13.6 per cent, almost negligible.
* ft ft
THE so-called peril-point Amendment was adopted in 1948 by the
Republican Congress to require the Tariff Commission'to look into any proposed reduction and notify the President of the point at which, in its opinion, an American industry would be imperiled. It was a very mild amendment because the President could go ahead and reduce the tariff further if he sent an explanation to Congress.
I feel that* the Administration, and particularly the State Department, is really in favor of complete free trade, and their real objection to the peril-point provision is that it suggests a standard involving the principle of protecting American industry and workers against unfair foreign competition. They are unwilling to admit in any way the principle that American industry may need some tariff protection.
I believe that foreign competition should be permitted and encouraged, but it should not have the advantage of low costs resulting from payment of wages anywhere from one-tenth to one-half those of American workmen.
At the present time, and during the war, we were protected by the high cost of manufacturing goods in Europe due to war conditions and inefficiency, but this condition cannot continue long—• particularly i f we give these countries * our machinery and know-how free of charge. We are already subject to low-wage competition in china, pottery, wool and oil.Therefore, I felt that, the peril-
point Amendment should have remained in.the law and should have been made compulsory.
