Commenting on the outlook for the remainder of 1950, a stateâ€" ment by Barcus, Kindred & Comâ€" pany says: "If car usage continues at the present rate of gain, further inâ€" creases may be expected in the their fingers into it. What has happened is certainly scouraging, but just as certainly not suprizing. â€" It‘s entirely possible that not all of the burocrats who are engaged in this perhaps wellâ€"meaning saboâ€" tage of the school lunch program are New or Fair Dealers. Some of them may wear the Republican label. It‘s an unfortunate truth that the burocrat‘s passion for getting his fingers into every phase of everything, is not confined exclusively to one party. According to the article, the school lunch proâ€" gram has been tied into the government farm price support program so that schools are pressured into taking foodstuffs that are in surplus. Because many of these foodsâ€"powdered eggs, for instanceâ€"are wellâ€"nigh inedible because of their offensive taste and smell, the result is that the kids won‘t eat the meals provided for them. Thus, the whole object of the school lunch program, to provide nourishing meals to take up the slack in many home diets, is being effectually defeated.. Further results of the burocratic touch include large overâ€"supplies shipped to many schools, perishâ€" ables shipped to schools that have no adequate refrigâ€" eration facilities and even a prohibition forbidding schools to use excess funds to purchase equipment that would enable them to use some of the supplies that are being shipped them: â€" â€" State Gas Tax Shows Nice Increase For Lake County Towns $243,282 in the same period of 1949, according to a statistical analysis prepared by Barcus, Kinâ€" dred & Co., of Chicago, specialâ€" ists in Illinois municipal bonds. This was an increase of $31,810. expenses for street and highway repair.. Without such allotments, communities would have to levy higher local taxes." If the Republican party will give an unequivocal pledge to eliminate this sort of waste and general idâ€" iocyâ€"and then keep its pledge religiously imâ€"every political area in which it obtains controlâ€"maybe there wor‘t be so many youngsters who can‘t rememâ€" ber when there was a Republican prasident. Incidentally, we thoroughly agree with the recâ€" ommendation implied in the articleâ€"*"don‘t scrap the whole school lunch program, just because it has been shamefully mishandledâ€"but, let‘s take it out of polâ€" itics." nois counties and towns reached a. new record total of $16,735,625 in the first six months of this year, compared with $14,757,876 last Lake county and its principal municipalities received $275,092 in allotments from Illinois state ments distributed locally by the state was $176,354 in the first Wm.
