'i'v iriV, ' ' , ^.iTT"- Washington Letter r -By- National Editorial Asfcociatin Washington, May 31--With a general understanding for adjournment by June 10 Congress is putting the finishing touches to the legislation asked by the Roosevelt Administra- * tion. There is no secret that the legislators, are chafing under their inability to stand up against the juggernaut tactics utilized in rushing vital measures through Congress. Open rebellions against the Democratic leaderships have bfeen squelched by sheer force of numbers particularly in the House of Representatives. Much of the resentment is aimed at the haste which makes Congress appear as nothing more than a rubber-stamp for the President's ideas and robs them of their importance is their home states. , It is amazing how meek and diffident the ^Senatorial - head-hunters 4have been/during the expose of the Stouse of Morgan. Instead of setting tip a hue and cry for the scalps of the world's largest bankers, the Senators, believe it or not, have been awied • and silenced, lit proves the truth of Heine's comment years ago in a German publication, "Money is the god of our time and Rothschild (the Morgan of Europe) is his prophet." It has been dramatic to watch Fred Fecora, chief counsel for the Senate Banking Committee draw back the veil of years from the operations of this dominating banking bouse. And Pecora is paid only $225 per month while Morgan is flanked with counsellors drawing more than this sum per day. Yet Pecora has the backing of a force the Morgan millions, cannot command -- public ©pinion. It will be interesting to note* the aftermaths of the exposure. Just ilow some legislators with seemingly righteous indignation are demanding |he resignations of Secretary of the treasury Woodin and Norman Davis, i|he ambassador at large. Nothing is said about Senator McAdoo giving up bis post or that other Morgan benefici Aries should be forced out. It is certain that Conrgess will no longer dare proceed with its initial plan of soaking the smaller incomes. The loopholes which permitted the Morgan partners to escape Federal taxation for three years while several million other citizens paid assessments on their modset incomes will be plugged. It is taken for granted that the Senate will give the Morgans • form of absolution because this out- ' T • fit took advantages of legalities to avoid the tax levy. Only one Senator courage enough to pry into the ! inner workings of the Morgan pmpire. This was Senator1 Couzens of Michigan. the richest and most independent, j member of the Upper ^hwmber. Couzens embarrased his coleagues frequently as he contrasted their, supinenes9 when the mighty Morgan was on the stand to the browbeatings administered with the utmost ruthlessness'to less fortunate witnesses. Leaders of industry are flocking to Washington frankly puzzled as to the real purposes of the industrial control bill. Organized labor ikes the measure to well to satisfy .the employers. In fact, labor leaders walk around town with the happy expression of the cat that just swallowed the canary. The proposal which has the endorsement of the White House will revolutionize working conditions and the operations of business generally. The penalties in the bill are one-sided. Despite the hope of a small group in the Senate to make labor equally responsible under the law, it appears that the unions will have the upper hand in all negotiations. There is a mandatory provision for w&ges and hours which will afford the unions a genuine invitation to organize all industries even those which have persisted in open shops. , The Administration is endeavoring to educate the people into the effects of the "re-employment tax" which Congress is now foisting on the taxpayers. The new plan calls for higher assessments on small incomes but this impost will be lifted when revenues permit. The money will be used primarily to finance the public works item in the industrial control set-up Repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment is held out as the only solution. By having liquors to tax, the Admin istration promises that the burdensome levy on the rank and file will be eliminated. They have a double purpose, the first, hastening the machinery Npf repeal and secondly to make the public realize that all public works projects are aways a drain on the citizens pocket-book. It is the stern realities of paying through the nose that awaken people to current state problems. Senator Arthur Robinson of Indiana is notoriously a "glad-hander" type. He is effusive and ultra-affable in greeting colleagues but particularly his Hoosiery^dfistituents. For some time he essrayed^the role of a Republican spokesman. \ Somehow he never qualified for an\accolade from the Hoover forces. Lately he has taken over the role as chief critic of the Roosevelt administration. There is undoubtedly plenty of opportunities. It is strange but the Indiana Senator can never get a second to help lambast the opposition party. At least, solons like Borah will not join with Robinson. They prefer to go it alone. Robinson does not carry weight in the councils of his party. Mr. Roosevelt will not lack for critics when Congress adjourns. The Republican leaders prefer to go along with him for the time without raising partisan issues. PROFIT FROM USE OF BETTER SULLS Also From Elimination of * Unprofitable Cows. (Colorado Ibollefce Extension Service.} Colorado dairymen are now receiving an added income .of $1,750,000 annually as the result of an average increased production of 30 pounds of butterfat per cow over Ave years ago. This increase is the direct and indirect result of impro\,J dairy practices, and dairy-herd-improvement work by farmers , and dairymen throughout the state. Only persistent effort in furthering better dairy practices through cow-testing associations and the selection.-of bulls-for herd sires from cows of known hijrh production could accomplish these results. Not toore dairy cattle, but the elimination tyf unprofitable cows, and a further increase In' butterfat production per; cow should h*} the immediate : Objectives of Colorado (kii vmeui • y This increase In production >afi; be "traced, in large measure to. the co^op-' . era tiye 'efforts of, tneriiberfc. of. her.d-jnlprovemeri't associations in tilling out low-producing cowsv in making, available registered bulls from tested dams and sires, and to better feeding methods used in a large number of herds. The widespread use of better bulls has probably bad more influence on this increased prodiiqtion . oer cow than any other factor. By careful selection of herd sires Colorado dairymen can do much toward increasing this production which should be much higher to assure a profit to the. average dairyman in the state. It is the herd that produces more than the average that shows a profit. For the dairyman who Intends to continue milking cows, it wiH pay to invest in a good bull' calf for his future herd sire now while Drices are exceptionally low. ; Alfalfa Hay and Silage Keep Down Dairy Costs Plenty of alfalfa hay and good silage gives ample feed insurance to the dairy farmer.. Even without grain he can keep down dairy costs with these two feeds. Numerous tests show this to be true. Many cows have kept butterfat production above the pound-aday mark on this ration In carefully conducted experiments. Of course adding concentrates will giva a slightly higher production and perhaps a bit less costly one. But a well-filled silo and the high-up mow of good alfalfa keep worry from the fanner even If his grain bins go empty--lie can go on producing milk anld keep his cows fit just the same. The reason so many farmers do not have tho«e inexpensive but nutritious feeds to carry them over the lean spots before grass is ready in spring and also during the dry spells of summer, isfoecause they have failed to plan far enough ahead. And this is the time of year that such planning must be done. First of all. plenty of corn and fUfalfa must be grown to provide this feed Insurant --Nebraska Farmer. Test for Abortion: Hobson Gets His Medal at Last The way to«»determIne whether a herd of cows is infected with abortion (Bang disease) is to have them tested by a competent veterinarian. Wbere a cow retains the afterbirth after calving, she should be regarded as suspicious. The greatest spreader of this disease is the aborting cow, at the time of and for a short period following the abortion, states Dr. Robert Graham, University of Illinois veterinarian. Infected cows at the time of normal calving are also dangerous as spreaders of the Infection. As with tuberculosis, healthy herds are more profitable. than infected herds and owners who have reason to believe that such infection may exist in the; herd should have them tasted.--Prairie Farmer. Vitamins in Milks Comparisons of Jersey and Frieslan milks with goat milk made in the United States showed that in nutritive properties, Including vitamin content, no one milk showed marked superiority over the other two. Jersey milk was found to contain somewhat more vitamin A and goat milk contained more of vitamins B and C. The vitamin C content of all three milks, produced in both winter and summer, was found to be low. The vitamin D content of all three milks was approximately the same. Goat and Frieslan milks were found to be somewhat similar in content of protein, fat and total nutrients, and Jersey milk was higher than either In these constituents. • Canada's Butter Production Final statistics of the flairy factory Industry In Canada in 1930 show the production of creamery butter in that year to have been 185,751,061 pounds, which constitutes the largest output recorded so far by the Dominion, and exceeds the previous high year, 1936, by over 8,000,000 pounds. • The production of farm butter In 1930 is estimated at 84,337,000 pounds, bringing the total butter production for the year to the record output of over 270,088,- «1 ponnds.
