KRAUSE In a beautiful holiday wedding performed at Emmanual Lutheran church. Crystal Lake, at 1 o'clock Saturday afternoon, Dec. 29, Miss Barbara M. Glorney, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James P. Glorney of Griswold Lake, was married to William A. Krause of Butternut', >Vis. Rev. Carl Lobitz of McHenry officiated at the nuptial rite. The pretty bride given in marriage by her father, chose a white velvet dress, floor length, with medium length train. The gown was styled with tight fitting bodice, featuring buttons down the The results of the corn referendum are worthy of serious study and comment. The first , fact to be noted is that the result of the voting was almost completely misreported. Most of the reports from Washington stated that corn producers had approved acreage allotments. The fact is, however, "that less than 39 percent of the farmers who voted approved acreage allotments. Over 61 percent voted Tor "base acreages. Thus, three farmers voted for base acreages for every two who voted for allotments. It is therefore misleading to say that corn growers approved acreage allotments or that they disapproved base acreages. Congress, in the Soil Bank Act it passed last spring, specified that a two-thirds majority would be required for base acreages to replace acreage allotments. The argument some congressmen used to, support the two-thirds requirement was that marketing quotas for wheat and cotton required a two-thirds majority to put them into effect, and that the same re» j Portugal quirement should apply to base | rea, Japan, and Kenya, British Af- color. acreages for corn. | vica.

The only penalty for non-compliance with either base acreages or. acreage allotments was loss of the price support privilege. There seems to be no adequate justification for requiring,.^ two-thirds majority for base acreages and only one-third for acreage allotments. There were only 163,227 unchallenged votes for acreage allotments. No one knows exactly how many persons were eligib'e to vote, but-the number apparently was at least ten times as many' as voted for allotments. Thus corn growers now have a program that has been approved by the action of only 10 percent of the growers. Farmers in twenty-four states voted in the corn referendum These states and the percentage of votes for acreage allotments for corn were as follows: West Virginia, 5.1 percent; Delaware, 11.6; Kentucky, 12.7; Tennessee, 13.0; Georgia, 14.7; Alabama, 17.4; New Jersey, 19.0; Illinois, 19.5; North Carolina. 21.4; Michigan, 24.9; Indiana. 25.4; Pennsylvania, 26.2; Ohio. 28.9; Maryland, 33.1; Iowa, 40.5; Arkansas, 40.8; Wisconsin; 451; Kansas, 48.6; Virginia, 49.3; Nebraska, 50.8; Missouri, 53.7; North Dakota, 72.5; South Dakota, 72.9; and Minnesota, 76.5. At least three-fourths of the corn producers did not vote either way. Why? Some did not vote because they did not understand the two propositions. We suspect, however, that most of those who did not vote had little faith in. or concern about, either program. L. H. Simerl Dept. of Ag.

Susan Gregory, Nancy Lockwood The Auxiliary to the McHenry hospital was ably represented by Mrs. Fred Lieberson and Mrs. A. C. Thornton, recently, at the Illinois Hospital association convention at Springfield! Many phases of hospital auxiliary work were discussed but one of the most important subjects before the conference was the disaster program. This program is designed to meet the needs of a community in times of natural disaster such as floods, tornadoes, major accidents or fires. The disaster workers will of course, cooperate with the civil defense authorities should the occasion arise. Pretraining of disaster .jvorkers is desirable. ' The make-up of a hospital auxilary is essentially the same as that of other service organizations, its problems are parallel. There is, of course, the ever-present need to raise funds both for present uses and for much needed expansion in the very near future. With the growth of the community in recent years, the hospitals' facilities are employed to their utmost capacity. The Springfield c o n f e r e n c e brought out the need for scholarships to help ease the shortage of nurses. The importance of the news letters to auxiliary members was stressed. Public understanding of the auxiliary and hospital problems is necessary. At the last meeting of the auxiliary, it was announced that the McHenry Garden Club will furnish plants for patients' rooms. The auxiliary has a flower fund and those wishing to do so may donate to this fund in lieu of sending flowers to patients. The fund will be used for hospital needs. There is also a memorial fund for those wishing to establish a permanent remembrance for a loved one. A memorial book will' be placed in the hospital showing names of the honored ones and of the donors as well. Appropriate cards will be sent to participants of either of these funds. It was decided also at the last auxiliary meeting that used magazines not be contributed for distribution to the patients. Subscriptions to new mag^ines are on order and will be furnished to the patients by the auxiliary.

HOLIDAY CHEER ing shape the thinking of the younger generation along economic, technical and productive lines. "At this moment when the free world needs trained engineers and other technicians so acutely, it is worth recognizing that you cannot force youngsters into science, but you can help to inspire them. One of our greatest missions at the Museum is to provide exhibits which enable our young visitors to actually touch, feel, activate and listen to the workings of all kinds of modern scientific innovations. By so arousing active interest on the high school and teen age levels, much can be accomplished in encouraging our young people to look toward vocations essential to our continued national progress and security," he added. Edward Rossman of Huntley 66, a native of McHenry, died Sunday morning, Dec. 30, of a heart attack. He was born in this community, Oct. 15, 1890.
