Patman (D.Tex.) charg- ea yesteraay tnat one of ti.e most sinister and vicious lobbies that has ever invaded Washing ton" Is seeking to destroy co operatives. "A deceitful and untrue cam paign is being conducted," Pat man declared in a statement pre pared for the House Ways and Means committee. The group is studying pro posals to remove the income tax exemption from the co-ops, in which persons band together to save money through mass buying and selling. Patman said the committee should investigate "abuse" of the income tax law "which permits contributions made to such con cerns as the National Tax Equal ity Association (NTEA) to be exempt and which permits tax money to be diverted for purely partisan, selfish propaganda pur poses." He said the NTEA has raised huge sums in an effort "to impose a death tax upon cooperatives." A list oi tne contributors to the NTEA," he said, "will doubt less disclose that the national corporate chains are furnishing a large part oi tne money to fighl cooperatives." Patman said "it is proposed and I consider this question the major one involved that patron age dividends or refunds that are made by a cooperative to its members be taxed to the coopera tive tor federal income tax purposes."

Turkey Offered In Yide Variety Of Sizes, Parts By -ALEXANDER R. GEORGE AP Newsfeatures Writer WASHINGTON Almost all of the traditional "makings" for Thanksgiving dinner from tur key to pumpkin pie are in good supply foi American families this year. Plenty of cranberries, pump kins, apples and nuts, along with large stocks of turkeys, ducks and chickens, are Indicated bv food supply reports of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Huge stocks of wine still are on hand from the record crush of grapes in 1!H6. There are large stocks of can ned cranberries, and prices are expected to be somewhat lower than last year. About 130,000,000 pounds of pumpkin were canned last year, and the carryover is substantial. The crop of the four principal tree nuts almonds, wal nuts, filberts and pecans is 17 ter cent larger than the 1936 1945 average. Any Sue You Want In some markets you can get your turkey in a wide variety of sizes and parts. There has been a big increase in the demand for the smail turkey which fits more easily into modern ovens. It also does away with those three-day turkey-munching endurance con tests to disose of the remnants of a big bird. Turkey is being markteed in halves, quarters, cut-up pieces and steaks. Turkey packers also are offering full-drawn, frozen ready-to-cook" turkeys. New Type Developed To meet the need for a handv. weight bird, the Department of Agriculture In 1934 started devel opment of a small turkev with an abundance of meat. By 1941 the Beltsvllie small white turkev, named after the department's re search center at Beltsville, Md.. was developed. It met speclfica-i tions, and distribution of surplus' turkey eggs was made to state1 agricultural colleges. The bronze. White Holland and Black varieties, the wild turkey! and the White Austrian turkey, Imported from Scotland, were first used in developing the- nioii i bird. In 1943 Broad Breasted Bronze blood was introduced. breeding work is being con tinued with the latter in the hope of further improving the type. The dressed weight of the Belts ville young toms at market age (24 to 2t weeks) is 10) to 15 pounds, average 13 pounds. Weight of young hens Is 6i to 9 pounds, average 8 pounds. Although there is a growing de mand for the streamlined tur key and turkey parts, many folk still prefer to tackle a gigantic golden-brown bird like those which highlighted the Thanksgiv ing gorges of yesteryear.
