THE DILLON EXAMINER TNI Town g £ P O R T € P IN WASHINGTON WALTER SHEAO, WNU Correspondent All-Out Campaign JNDIANAPOLIS, Ind.-here In the A heart of the rich agricultural and industrial Midwest the Novem ber elections will largely-determine the political complexion of the next congress. Realizing they have a better X mathematical chance of gaining control of the senate this year than in 1952, the Republicans are going all-out to win control of the upper house with the knowledge that to do so they must not only hold the seats they now have, but must pick up seven additional seats. The facts are, however, they may fall short since there is a terrific bat tle in progress in the key states of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, as well as in Wisconsin, Iowa and Missouri, with the outcome undetermined in any of these states where the Re publicans now now incumbents in five of the six states. Fight of Career In Ohio Sen. Robert A. Taft, “Mr. Republican” himself, is en gaged in the fight of his career to ■ hold on to his seat. And it’s a ' toss-up with state auditor \Jumpin’ Joe” Ferguson making his usual prairie fire campaign, backed al most solidly by labor and with the farm vote split about fifty-fifty. Senator Taft, it will be re membered, squeezed through in 1944 by about 17,000 votes after having carried the state six years previously by more than 170,000. The senator is working as though his whole career de pends upon this election, as it does, and is making up to 13 speeches a day covering Ohio’s 88 counties. The Republican organization, well financed not o n 1 y from Ohio friends, but by powerful eastern groups, is making the battle with its back against the wall, while the Democrats, aided by the powerful CIO-AFL r a i l r o a d brotherhood * groups claiming a million and a quarter membership in Ohio, and well financed from the Democratic national committee, is optimistic that Ferguson, who has always run well ahead of the Democratic tick et, having gone before Ohio voters 27 times without a defeat, will un seat the senate Republican leader. Indiana Contest Close In Indiana, where Republican Sen. Homer E. Capehart also squeezed through with only 50.6 per cent of the vote in his first term bid, is likely to be unseated by pop ular Alex Campbell, of Ft. Wayne, a former district attorney and who resigned his job as assistant United States atttorney general in Wash ington to run against Capehart. The state organization in Indiana is also said to be lukewarm for Capehart and the Hoosier senator has alien- ' ated the labor and veterans groups generally by his votes on the Taft- Hartley act and his opposition to much veterans legislation, partic ularly on housing. He also opposed the 1949 bill providing aid to Korea and voted for substantial slashes in the European recovery program. As in Ohio, the Indiana farm vote is split almost 50-50 with the tenant and small farmers professing a Democratic trend and the big farm ers and farm owners going along their traditional Republican ticket. The recent tirade of Sen, Wil liam E. Jcnncr of Indiana against Gen. George Marshall as secretary of defense has hurt the Republican cause in Indiana considerably, and there are many here who believe the in temperate upbraiding of the re spected and generally well-liked Marshall may prove the straw that will break the Capehart back in Indiana. Capehart could not repudiate the Jenner state ment and without so doing he is regarded as feeling the same way about General Marshall. As a matter of fact, while there is some confusion in the minds of many people in Indiana, as else where, over our early reverses in the Korean war, this reporter can find little of the so-called \isolation ism” either in Indiana or Ohio. » * • Lucas Has Edge In the Illinois arena, Sen. Scott Lucas, the Democratic majority leader in the senate is also fight ing the political battle of his ca reer against former Congressman Everett M. Dirksen. While Senator Lucas is making a middle of the road campaign, opposing the Bran- nan plan, which has been endorsed by President Truman, he is being hard hit by his opponent as a top advocate of the Fair Deal. On the other hand, Lucas comes from “down state” at Havana, and has been able to poll more rural and down state votes than any other Democrat which, added to the tremendous Cook county Democrac- ic majority, has pulled h i m through. Dirksen is supported by CoL McCormick of the Chicago Tribune hnd i$ being attacked as an isolationist and \inconsistent” on foreign affairs votes while in con gress. This race looks like a toss- up with the edge going to Senator Lucas. But the majority leader will know he’s had a battle. Produce Clean Eggs For Larger Profits Buyers Will Pay Top Prices for Clean Eggs Produce clean eggs. Thousands of dollars are lost by poultry rais ers every year due to dirty eggs and the resulting deterioration takes place before they are marketed. The prevention of dirty eggs will not only increase the flockowner’s in come but will build a better market for eggs. Dirty eggs offers a poor appear ance, they cannot be stored suc cessfully and it takes time and The Bible, a picture of Christ on the window of a church and the American flag are symbols of our civilization as well as the symbol of National Bible Week. NATIONAL BIBLE WEEK Laymen's Group Plans Week Of Bible Study and Meditation Next week, October 16-22, millions of Americans of all faiths and creeds will observe National Bible Week. People of every age and in all walks of life; factory workers and farmers, business and professional men and women, and housewives— the solid folk who are the backbone of America, will be encouraged by proclamations and prepared statements from their governors and mayors to make the week a major activity in their communities, one in which they can be well informed concerning the scriptures. The Laymen’s National Commit tee as sponsors of National Bible Week also asks everyone to make it an occasion for special prayer, a period to collect our thoughts, to marshal our hopes and to plant in out hearts a strong belief in our American way of life. The laymen’s committee, which originated National Bible Week ten years ago, is a non-sectarian, non profit organization, composed of civ ic-minded citizens, of all faiths, business executives and labor lead ers. Rear Admiral Reginald R. Belknap, USN (retired) is honor ary chairman. Dr. Alfred P. Haake, noted economist, business consultant, and civic administrator is chairman. Howard Kirock, LL.D., is executive vice-chairman. Observance Grows The committee said in a state ment announcing the week: \Ever since the start of Na tional Bible Week each succeeding year produces more and more evi dence of people being influenced to turn to the Bible for spiritual comfort and guidance. It is a po tent antidote to the anti-God prop aganda being put out today. “The Communists won’t like the observance of National Bible Week, but they can rest assured it will be the greatest observance in its history. Every community will en courage and promote it in every way. “In the years of our fore bears, the bible was a pillar of strength to them as they strug gled to meet the adversities which beset a young nation. In the present period of immense sorrow and suffering and pain, the Bible is still a pillar of strength in preserving the mor al values upon which America was founded. A Desire for Good \Make no mistake about it, We are at the crossroads of civiliza tion. We must subdue the stupid pagans who are trying to eliminate God from the face of the earth. Mil lions of persons in our country, pf all faiths, who have a determi nation to further the common good Pf all, will be reading the bible during the week of October 16-22. \People all over America are beginning to realize more and more the importance of National Bible Week. They are showing a devoted and continuing solicitude for its teachings. They are exerting a tre mendous influence for good. They are very much concerned for the future welfare of all men. “Veteran groups, labor unions, fraternal organizations, women’s clubs, youth movements, chambers of commerce and other organiza tions are asked for ^personal par ticipation, and to concentrate on the one objective—National Bible Week. Many of them have already started the ball rolling in their communities. They are motivated by a desire for good and are has tening the day when peace will come to all mankind.\ State Tax Burden Sets New Record Of $60.72 a Person The state tax burden for the fis cal year 1949-50 reached a record average of $60.72 per capita in the 48 states, according to a report just issued by Commerce Clearing House of Chicago in its state tax review. This averages $3.21 more per individual than was collected in 1948-49. The report shows extreme varia tions in per capita collections by states. Washington was highest with $97.76, Louisiana followed with $96.22, and California collected $91.41. New Jersey had the lowest with $39.23. Four southern states ranked next; Georgia collected $41.16, Kentucky and Alabama $42.80 and Mississippi $43.81. Eleven states were in the mid die classification: Massachusetts $63.57, South Dakota $63.27, Wis consin $62.06, Iowa $60.48, Mary land $59.48, Vermont $59.09, West Virginia $58.75, Idaho $58.58, Con necticut $58.55 and North Carolina $58.53. Total Revenue Increases Five states reported startling increases: Delaware 58.7 per cent, South Dakota 26,2 per cent, Florida 25.9 per cent and New York 22.3 per cent, while Nebraska, which the previous year had shared the low mark in collections with New Jersey, raised its collection by 23.1 per cent; The per capita tax load was raised by $10 or more in Kansas and Oklahoma and was hiked by $5 or more in ten other states. Eight.states lowered their levies. West Virginia cut its per capita tax revenue by 3 per cent, South Carolina 2.6 per cent, Pennsylvania 2.2 per cent and Mississippi 1.9 per cent. Illinois and New Jersey re duced by 0.9 per cent. North Caro lina by 0.6 per cent. Total state tax revenues reached nearly $9 billion for the year, the report said. This was 7.4 per cent more than the previous year’s total, another record year, and set a new record of continued and un interrupted climb for 17 years. The report based on U.S bureau of census figures, shows the states collected $4,687 million, or 52.3 per cent of this revenue from general and selective sales and gross re ceipts taxes. Beverage Tax Declines Consistent consumer demand, rising prices and a high level of spending is credited for rais ing the general sales and gross receipts tax by 7.4 per cent or $322 million. The only specific taxes to show a decline for the year were alco holic beverage sales, off 1 per cent, and death and gift taxes, off 3.4 per cent. Eggs should be gathered at least three times a day in wire baskets and stored in clean, cool, moist place. money to clean them. Consequently, buyers are willing to pay more for clean eggs which means more prof it to the flockowner. The production of clean eggs and handling them to maintain quality is not difficult. Deep, dry litter, good ventilation and nests well lit tered with shaving, excelsior, straw, or other nesting material, will keep the birds from getting dirt and stains on the eggs from their feet. Always keep hens in the house on wet, muddy days. Immediately after gathering eggs should be stored in the cleanest, coolest and most moist place on the farm. A cellar with a tempera ture of 45 to 60 degrees is very good. Home Canning Resumes On Near Wartime Scale The upward surge of food prices, reflecting troublous events in the far east, finds housewives every where mobilizing home canning bri gades reminiscent of World War II. “Veterans of the last home front stand are dusting off their pressure cookers and preparing to lay up rec ord ‘peacetime’ supplies of fruits and vegetables”, says Mary Ann March, chief home economist of Chi cago’s Ekco Products company. “Countless inquiries received by our test kitchen about the new low- pressure method of cooking indicate a revival of home canning on a near wartime scale,” she says. The low pressure cooker, develop ed since the end of the world war, permits more efficient canning of fruits, berries and tomatoes than was possible in the early 1940’s, be-’ cause its ability to operate at a pressure of only three and three- quarter pounds assures thorough cooking without destruction of these delicate foods. m CARTA STATE TAX COUKTIONS K * 1950 Better Pigs More than 3,000 Midwest farmers recently viewed pigs raised by Sam and Frank Honegger who have de veloped a system of vitamin feeding to produce bigger and better swine. The use of antibiotics and minute quantities of vitamin substances, in cluding vitamin B-12, in the daily rations has given growers a new outlook through a lower livestock mortality rate. The pig above fed by the new method gained nearly a pound a day faster than on previous diets at better than five cents less cost per pound of meat. Oriental Blight Strikes Italian Chestnut Trees What America has learned about combatting chestnut blight may turn out to be a blessing for Italy. The same oriental blight that ra vished chestnut forest from New England to Tennessee and Missouri, is now raging through the chestnut forests of Italy where the nuts are considered- a sort of second front against hunger. American knowledge Is now being used to combat the disease in Italy. For Your Future Buy U.S. Savings Bonds The Wreck She—\Oh good! You’ve asked father.” He—“No, dear.

Geary, attractive and charming woman of 840 Ursuline Street, New Orleans, Louisiana: “I’d been sick quite some time and the doctors told me it was a nervous stomach. I couldn’t eat regularly and lots of times I was unable to hold the food on my stomach. Then I heard about HADACOL. After * the first few bottles I could tell a definite improvement. Now my stomach doesn’t trouble me at all. I eat anything I want, and my nerves are fine.” (Give HADACOL a chance to help you.) Mrs. Hilton Shuff, mother of Route 1, Ville Platte, Louisiana: “My son Mark Wendell has been sick for some time. A lot of the time he couldn’t hold anything on his stomach. He was very weak and pale. Then I started giving him HADACOL, and he im proved in just a short time. He’s gained weight and has more energy than a dozen wild In dians.” (HADACOL is great for puny, nervous kiddies with easily upset stomachs due to lack of important Vitamins Blt B2, Iron and Niacin. Mrs. Alma Kincaid, 2125 E. Adelaide, St. Louis, Missouri: “I’ve been taking HADACOL for over a year. Before taking it, I had stomach distress for soma time. Nothing seemed to help me. Then I took my hus band’s advice and took HAD ACOL. A good friend of his told him of the wonderful re sults he had from HADACOL. Now that I’m taking HADA- CAL I eat anything. I recom mend HADACOL to all my friends.” (A big improvement is often noticed within a few days.) WHY CONTINUE TO DOUBT These are just a few of thousands upon thousands of letters that constantly pour in telling of the won derful results the great new HADACOL is giving. It’s only a very foolish person who would continue to ‘doubt’ HADACOL’S effectiveness and continue to suffer in view of such overwhelming evidence.
