Several members of both com mittees have bills In the offing, and republicans and democrats are not far apart on some adapta tion of the Ruml suggestion. Mr. Stinnett, in his comment, niters this iulormalion: If the new bills are amend mi nis to the 1H1J bill, they will involve 1!H-' incomes and can be j jiassed before the first quarter! due-date March l.'i.

Concerning the NORTHWEST At Viewed at the National Capital By John W. Kelly WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. 19. - For generations the dairyman has been held in bondage to the cow. From before daw n until late at night, on holidays, on the 5-' Sundays in the year, the dairy man has labored. The cow had to be milked, and that was that. Now, with global war and every pound of milk needed, the farmer is throwing up the sponge; he is quitting. Appeals of Claude Wick aid, secretary of agriculture, that the farmer increase his milk pro duction 2 per cent over the 122 billion pounds of 19-12 leave the ; dairyman cold. "Government office help is re ceiving an increase of 10 per cent j in pay," writes a dairyman in one ' of the coast counties of the north- i west, "but we are not entitled to a , i living, apparently." I To the office nf nric nrlmini... I tration this farmer tells his story, j He is one of scores in Washing-1 ton and Oregon: one of thousands in the United States, who are he- I ing forced to escape bondage from the cow. Everything on this farm has gone up in price except milk wihch, in his instance, is 11 cents a quart. Two ol his sons have been called to military service; two other sons, of high school age. go to the barn at 3:4;" a. m. and start milking; the farmer and his wife are washing milk bottles at 6 a. m. The farmer, takes the milk truck to a military cantonment, returns home, work-1 ing until after dark. In lflll he paid labor $55 a month, with "found." Today he can hire only one man, who has a family of; six children. He pays this man S100 a month, furnishes a house, I ' fuel, light, water and food. The i farmer says this is not too much, ! for this man could receive S250 to S.'iOO a month in a shipvard. j Here is the way costs have gone up since 1941: Milk bottles were $7 a gross, now arc $10; feed was $32 to S35, is now $53.30 to S58; alfalfa hay (when he can get it I was SIC to $19. is now $30 to S3X; oats and vetch hay was $9 to $11, is now $2-1. Aside from pasture, there Is not much feed down on the coast so he has to pay freight, and this Is up. "For IS hours a day we work, my wife and I. She is 59 and I am 02, and we can't take it as we did when we were younger. 11 OPA floes not give us a price at which w'o can live we must sell off our herd." This dairyman works 120 hours a week, or three times the hours ?ha! the shipyards require. Rail Rate Boost Opposed Kveryone who can still travel on a train will be interested in tile demand of Jimmy Byrnes, ei-onomic stabilizer, to the TCC that the proposed increase of 10 per cent in railroad rates, effec tive February 14, be annulled. ICC granted this additional charge for passenger tickets to enable the railroads to meet the demands of railroad lemployes for more pay. Jimmy estimates that the increase will approxi mate far more revenue to the car- ! riers than the increased to I I the workers. In this he is joined; hy other war agencies. There is also a 6 per cent increase grant- , ed in freight rates and Secretary ; j of Agriculture Wickard. having i the interests of farmers at heart. I is protesting against this. Nothing j is heard from the L. S. treasury, : because if the rates stand the treasury will collect much more taxes, there being a tax on pas . senger tickets and freight move- 1 ment. All the war agencies con- i I tend that the increased rates are j not necessary for the reason that I the railroads have now. and will I have for a long time in the future, I j all the business they can handle. I To this the railroad companies , j say that just because they are1 j beginning to make money is no I i reason for not carrying the new I rates into effect. ! I Welfare Act Revived ; A general welfare act. a varia-j j tiun of the Tow nsend plan, has , been tossed into the hopper by j Representative Magnuson of; ; Washington, and will ho known- as HR S36. The general welfare j had the support of every member ' from Washington and Oregon in i I the last session and attempts were I j made to bring it to the floor hy i j n petition to "discharge the com-1 mittce.." Such a petition requires j j 21S signatures, but the old con- ! gress adjourned w ith only a hand I tul of signatures lacking to com ! plete it. Representative Angel! ol ' Oregon tried to obtain the ro ! quired number by an impassion 1 ed plea but without success. i "Boy's Town" Program on I KRNR Has Date Change ' In response to many requests. ; Marshall Pengra. manager nf C.RXR. announced today that !

First, commodity credit announced that its feed wheat sales would be continued on substantially the same basis as 1942, when about three mil lion bushels of wheat were sold for feeding to livestock and jioul try in the state. -Second, OPA ceilings halted the upward spiral of corn prices. In a move to assure full use of pork supplies by civilians, ! armed forces and lend lease ol'A on January 19 i'cplaces' packer and wholesale sellers' cell ing prices with new uniform regulations.
