Why can not a person receive soil-building payments without having deductions made for over-planting of soil-depleting crops above the soil-depleting base and for overplanting corn above the corn acreage limit? A. Payments are made for net results in soil conservation and improvement as measured in terms of diversion and soil-building practices. The deductions are made to avoid payments to persons who may more than offset desirable accomplishments by increasing th«*acreage of soil-depleting crops.

Ootnray visited in Bgin last as represened by Secretary of Labor Perkins and her followers among the social workers in conflict with hardboiled Senators and Representatives interested in preserving their political careers. The sticky mess revealed by blowing off the lid extends into many states where the central government has endeavored to dictate to" various commonwealths. Undercurrent stories at the Capitol are to the effect thst two or three Senaors in collaboration with Patronage Dispenser Farley have been quietly building up powerful machines to establish their control over their own States and insure their perpetuation in office. It does not pay to ignore Senators in their home states. The claim is made that Senator Pit Harrison of Mississippi has grabbed off at least sixty major appointments in the Social Security set-up and that Senator Wagner of New York has been running a close scond. Resentment is expressed against Secretary Perkins on the charge that A. J. Altmeyer, the present chairman of the Social Security Board, is actually a rubber stamp because he is a protege of Madam Perkins. Legislators are tearing their hair as reports come in from their districts about the bungling and dictatorial tactics of social' welfare workers endeavoring to force changes of state laws dealing with public assistance, old age pensions and unemployment insurance. When you consider that the Sdcial Security Board has 300 field offices manned with four to fvfty employees, the possibilities of political activity are enormous. Incidentally, there is considerable dissension within the Federal board here because of the tremendous job ahead which requires skilled help rather than political favorites. The Perkin's social workers clique is dominating the situation at present, but a house cleaning at the insistence of irate Congressional leaders is expected momentarily. Inquiry disclosed that the political handicaps may eventually result 5n a resignation W two of high officials at the Social Security Board. . ^ TWELVE APPLY FOR CITIZENSHIP PAPERS Twelve people in McHenry county have made application for citizenship at the office of the circuit clerk at Woodstock.
