Bud Abbott,
Eddie Foy
Teaming Up
HOLLYWOOD UPI )-Comedian
Bud Abbott, broke but too proud
to declare bankruptcy, said today
he and oldtimcr Eddie Foy Jr,
were teaming up as a new com
edy act.
The 63-year-old straight man of
the famed Abbott and Costello
comedy team told United Press
International that he and Foy, 54,
were trying to work out a routine
for the nightclub and television
circuit:
Foy is one of vaudeville's "sev
en little Foys."
Abbott, when he announced re
cently that he was deeply in debt,
said there was "no use trying to
work. They (the government)
don't split the salary. They take
it all, and you gotta pay taxes on
top of it. I owe them half a mil
lion in deductions they didn't al
low.
"Some people," he said today,
"have written me asking me why
I don t go into bankruptcy. But
I wouldn't go into bankruptcy for
a million dollars, if everybody
doesn't crowd, me, maybe L'can
straighten these debts out. "
Maybe I can work out some
deal with the tax boys. If they'll
only leave .me a little, that s all
I want, t gotta have some ac
tion.'1
Abbott's money problems have
led him to put up his $75,000 home
for sale plus most of his other
assets collected ' during the rich
years in the .1940s when he and
Costello were show business's hot
test comedy team.
"But I m no fool, he said. "I'm
not sure if Eddie Foy and I are L
perfectly suited to each other yet.
That's something we have to work
out. But he's a fine dancer and
has wonderful pathos as a come
dian.
'I know I said I didn't see the
sense of teaming with another
partner after Lou died - (last
March 3), but the letters from all
the people who read about my
money troubles convinced me the
public would accept me with
someone else.'' .
1959 Wheat Crop
Presents Problem
To Legislators
WASHINGTON (UPD A new
forecast of a bumper 1959 wheat
crop put additional pressure on
Congress today to pass legislation
to reduce the mounting wheat sur
plus. But a mood of defeatism seized
the House on the second day of
debate on the measure. A revolt
by Democratic congressmen from
big cities threatened to torpedo a
Democratic plan for cutting pro-i
duction of surplus wheat,' , .
The Republican plan also' ap
peared td have little chance of
passage.. . . - '
Should all legislation be scuttled,
it would leave Democratic .farm
leaders without an answer to Pres
ident Eisenhower's challenge that
Congress do something to combat
wheat surpluses.
The Agriculture Department es
timated late .Wednesday ibat the
1959 wheat crop would total 1,181,-
596,000 bushels, nearly 20 -per cent
less than the record 1058 produc
tion but 10 per cent more than
average.
The estimated 1959 crop, if real
ized, would add from 130 million
to 150 million bushels to the wheat
surplus which already was esti
mated at 1,285,000,000 bushels.
Taxpayers now have about three
billion dollars invested in wheat
surpluses. The excess wheat in
storage is sufficient to handle all
domestic needs for 2'k years. Stor
age costs alone are $500,000 a day.
