Farm Bureau News NEW AAA CORN-HOG PLAN FEATURED /BY DOZEN CHANGES A dozen or more .changes in the provisions of the 19S5 AAA cornhog program, as compared with last year's plan, wilKbq found by McHenry county producers when they get their copies of the new contract and administrative rulings at the community meetings to be held within the next week or 10 days. Most of these revisions simplify the operations of the AAA program and will be popular with corn and hog farmers in this county, says Farm Adviser W. A. Herrington. The more important ones, as listed by the extension service of the College of Agriculture, University of Illinois, include: 1. Corn yields used in determining benefit payments will be tlie adjusted yield for all land in corn at least once during the five years of 1930-1934. In other words there will be no "contracted acres.*' - Sh There will be no limitations" on the total crop acres planted or harvested in 1935, nor on any group of crops, nor on any individual crop, excepting .corn,'• v 3. A contract signer will hot be responsible for excess corn acreage on land rented to someone for cash. 4. All restrictions relative to the production of livestock and livestock products, excepting hogs, have been omitted. 5. There will be no limitation as to the number of litters farrowed in 1935, but the number of hogs proceed for market must not exceed 90 per cent of the 1932-1933 base average. A contract signer may buy an unlimited number of feeder pigs from contract signers, but purchases from non-signers can not exceed the average number bought during the base years. 7. Hog bases of two farming units operated in 1934 can not be combined on one farming unit in 1935, but contract signer may use either of the two for 1935, if now operating only one farming unit.

Home Bureau News McHENRY COUNTY HOME BUREAU WELL REPRESENTED HOMEM AKER'S CONFERENCE The Annual Homemaker's Conference is an event looked forward to from one year to another by Homemakers of McHenry county. All past . records of attendance is being broken this year from this county. The women who are attending are as follows: Mrs. Bert Bridges, chairman of the .Chemung Unit, also a member of the 'State Federation Board, will attend this annual meeting of the Board on Monday afternoon and will remain" for the rest of the conference. Mrs. John Walkup, chairman of the Crystal Lake Unit and on the Executive Board of the County Recreational - Institute, will attend a special recreational program for county recreational leaders. This program to be in charge of Lynn Rohrbough of the Church Recreation Service of Dela* ware, Ohio. Mrs. Arthur Beard, chairman of the Greenwood Unit and County 4-H Club chairman for girls will represent the County Executive Board and will appear on the program Wednesday January 16.

T. Brain; in 1935, is 15 hogs instead of three litters as in 1934. 9. All lands in a farming unit may be signed up in a single contract, regardless of the number of landlords. A landlord to a particular Contract will not be considered as one of the producers. • 10. An initial producer in 1953 does not have to divide the hog base by two where he has a livestock lease with an old producer. 11. Generally speaking, to be a bona fide farm operator in 1935, the producer must have planted at least 25 per cent of his base corn acreage and produced 25 percent of his base litters or base hogjr production for market in 1934, and he must meet these same requirements tn 1935. However, he may be released from these requirements by presenting evidence to the county allotment committee proving that failure to comply was not or will not be the result ol the applicant retiring from corn o* hog production in 1935. 12. A producer obtaining a hog base by transfer in 1934 can produce 90 per cent of his base in 1935 instead of 75 per cent as in 1934. As previously announced, 1935 contract signers will be required to adjust their corn and hog production only 10 per cent below the 1932-1933 base years, instead of 20 per cent in corn and 25 per cent in hogs as was the case in 1934. Corn benefit payments will be made at the rate of 35 cents a bushel as compared with 30 cents in 1934. Contract signers will receive hog benefits of $15 a head on the number of hogs represented by the 10 pei cent adjustment. To the individual cooperator this will amount to about 40 per cent of what he would have received under the 1934 contract when hog benefits were paid at the rate of $5 a head on 75 per cent of the hogs produced for market during the two base years. The contract signer's total income* including the ^return from the increased number of hogs which he may raise, however, will be larger. One half of the benefit payment* on hogs, or $7.50 a head, will be made upon acceptance of the contract by the Secretary of Agriculture.

The Schwerman Chevrolet Sales, located on U. S. 12 and near 111. 20, McHenry, are showing the new 1935 Chevrolet. The prices are as follows: New Stand? H modeta -- Coupe, $475; coach, $485; sedan, $550; phaeton, $495; sport roadster, $465; sedan delivery, $515, Master De Ltixe models--Coupe, $560; coach, $580; sedan, $640; sport coupe, $600; town sedan, $615; sport sedan, $675; commercial panel, $560.; de luxe panel, $580. The prices on the New Standard coupe, coach and phaeton are $10 under those of the corresponding 1934 models. On the Master De Luxe, prices are exactly the same as in 1934. Knee-action continues as one of the outstanding features of the Master De Luxe cars, and is available to any customer on order at slight additional cost. Master De Luxe cars also fea-i ture the new Fisher turret top all steel roof construction, and a much larger body with corresponding increase in interior dimensions. "Chevrolet was able to reduce its Standard model prices and to maintain its price levels on the Marter De Luxe series in the face of substantially increased material and manufacturing costs because of the greatly increased volume scheduled for 1935, as indicated by the thousands of orders we now have on hand for the immediate delivery of the 1935 lines of cars from our organization of 10,000 dealers," says William E. Holler, general sales manager > of the Chevrolet Motor Co., tn , announcing the prices. "Last year Chevrolet built 870,000 passenger "€ars and trucks, which made it the leading manufacturer of motor cars in the world for the sixth time in the la?t eight years. With the establishing of our 1935 prices, we are in a position to secure our share of the low-priced car business this year. "Both lines of cars are greatly improved. The New Standard is now powered with the Master motor, and has an entirely new X-type frame which is fifteen times more rigid than its predecessor. The Master De Luxe is a completely new and much larger car than the 1934 Master. To increase the comfort of passengers, and procure more body room, the wheelbase has been increased to 113 inches. This line now features, in addition to the new Fisher turret top all steel roof construction, the latest in 'tear drop' design, with dual windshield, no-draft ventilation, and all the comfort and convenience features found in much higher priced cars." See the new 1935 Chevrolet at the Schwerman Chevrolet Sales in McHenry. " Washington Letter . " '. ;v!

Washington, Jan. 16--Social security legislation has temporarily overshadowed the tjroublesome bonus issue as a live topic of conversation at Capitol Hill. The proposals dealing wi^,h unemployment insurance and old age pensions, which the President submits to Congress this week will supplant the scores of bills on these subjects presented by individual legislators. Soundings taken by administration" scouts reveal real obstacles will be placed in the pathway of insurance for i the unemployment. Put it down in the books that the controversy over this item will center on the contributory basis,--that is, "who pays and how much?" Employers expect workers and the government to share in the expense. A corollary question deal^s with method and costs of administration. This social legislative program which Mr. Roosevelt dropped on the Congressional lap is truly complicated from, all angles. Senator Burton K. Wheeler of Montana is known as a "radical" Democrat now in a position of great power as chairman of the Senate Committee on Interstate Commerce. Radical elements hail his advancement under seniority rights as a distinct gain for the "leftist" movement. Wheeler is serving his third term and the Liberal and Radical wings are mentioning him for the Presidency. The committee over which the. Westem solon presages handles legislation of vital importance to all business enterprises engaged in interstate commerce. It is no wonder the railroads, communication systems and larger industries are on the anxious bench. Senate and House majority leaders are bothered with rebellions. Many lawmakers are inclined to break away from caucus obligations which, in effect, pledge them to administration plans. The growing revolt is intended to recapture the powers over spending which Congress conferred upon the President in an emergency. They feel the situation responsible for this delegation of power is now under control and -the legislative body should exercise its prerogatives. A move in this direction is noted in the demand to "ear-mark" or specify how enormous public works funds should be handled so the President cannot have a free hand In spending. In the Senate, the Munitions Committee with all the zeal of reformers, wants no competition from a special group representing the White House. The "World Court issue will serve as a sounding board for Progressive Senators to express their sentiments on international policies and adnvinistra tion tactics in domestic matters. These and other issues will afford a real test for the Roosevelt technique in dealing with Congress. Several amendments to the Constitution have been imposed, few, if any, of which will have the approval of Congress and a majority of the State legislatures. One noteworthy amendment is proposed by Representative r Vinson, Democrat of Georgia, providing for a term of four years for the members* of the House instead of the present two years limitation. While at first glance the purposje of this legislation is selfish, the proposal hag considerable merit. One of the complaints against the inefficiency of the aVerage Congressman is the fact that he barely takes office when he is obliged to, start campaigning for re-election and seldom has time to give his constituents benefit experience. On the other hand, the two year term provides vhe people with a recall method whereby they may remove the incumbent at the polls at short intervals. There is one measure before the House Committee on the Judiciary, which was doomed af the outset. It is a bill by RieprcsentatiVe Kvale, Farmer-Laborite from Minnesota, "To prevent the use of Federal official patronage in elections and prohibit Federal officeholders from misuse of positions of public trust for pri\^te and partisan ends." It prohibits a person holding an appointive office of trust or profit under the government from serving as an officer^ committeeman, delegate, or alternate of any political organization having to de with the nomination of the President or Vice-president. Critics say it iialtruism carried to extremes. Bill* have been introduced in the Senat^jj;; and House making income from the U. S. Securities subject to the income^ * tax laWs. This bill will probably b# sidetracked at the request of the . Treasury Department because it is thin . tax-free feature that makes governs ment bonds so attractive to investor^ , This administration is faced with the necessity of raising billions by bond issues to finance the relief activities^ ; At the ^ame time other lawmakers J were introducing ingenious schemes ' to provide ways and means for rais» ing capital funds whereby the gov.*: , - ernment could loan to the citizens fof .
