Patman Hits Foes
Of Tax Immunity
For Cooperatives
WASHINGTON. Nov. 21. OF)
Rep. 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."

Police, firemen and other city
employes were told yesterday by

Capt. Terry D. bcnrunK, presi
dent of the Portland Fire Fight

recently dropped life Insurance

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.
