The Bend Bulletin. Tuesday, December 6, 1955 THE BEND BULLETIN 'Bait Money' Plan Offered CHICAGO (UP) A six - point program to help tanks foil day time stickups Includes advice to keep "bait money" on hand. John Mosler, executive vice-president of the Mosler Safe Company and author of the program, ex plained that "bait money" is cash with series, year and serial num bers already recorded that can be handed to a bandit to keep him from money storage areas. The records of the money will help catch the holdupman, Moiler said. Other ways to stop bandits in clude installing an effective alarm, keeping large sums of money un der delayed timelock protection, demanding identification for un , familial maintenance employes, using different persons to open and close the bank and varying em ploye work routine every day so that the experienced criminal won't be able to side-step habitual practices.

Authoritative souxces said today the administration is "actively con sidering" a major change in farm policy. The change would limit the amount of price support payments to any one farmer, informed sources said. This would not affoct the man running a family -Aire farm but would deal with the big, commercial farmer. Other farm policy changes unijr consideration by high administra tion officials involve bushel and pound limits on marketing of some: surplus-produced crops, and sate of surplus cotton abroad at competi tive prices. A ceiling on support payments would be aimed at curtailing com merclal production of surplus! crops. The changes presumably would be tied In with a soil fertility bark plan nov under consideration by the National Agricultural Adviso-y Commission. This would involve the retirement of surplus farm land from crop production through government payments. A soil bank would be a means of stopping the build-up of farm sur pluses through acreage control. House GOP leader Joseph W. Martin Jr. (Mass) has confirmed the administration is working on a farm program to "give farmers some hope." He volunteered to re porters that It might include soma kind of soil bank. Rep. W. R. Poage (D-Tex) pre dicted in an interview that Con gress will give Mr. Elsenhower a form bill coupled with legislation to restore high price supports and that the President will sign it even though It means junking his flexi ble farm program. Aides Unable to Keep Ikes Business Away from Farm Spud Shipment Report Issued Special to The Bulletin: REDMOND November ship-1 ments of potatoes from Central Oregon, on a basis of 360 cwt. cars, showed an increase over Novem ber, 1954, according to figures just released by W. R,,, Stanard, ship-1 ping point inspection supervisor, In the month just past 957 cars went out, 632 by rail and 326 by truck, for a season total of 1688 cars to Dec. 1. A year ago the figures were 750 cars, divided 480 by rail and 270 cars, but the season total to Dec. j 1, 1954 was greater than this year, 1 1 2160 cars. . GETTYSBVRC. Pa. (UP) - Backstairs at the Gettysburg White House: Presidential aids are doing everything possible to confine of ficial business to Presdent Eisen hower's downtown office. This is in line with the desire of the Presi dent and Mi's. Eisenhower to pre serve their faim home as Just that a home. They don't want it made into an office. But despite the best efforts of everybody concerned, the farm most days resembles a downtown parking lot. A typical count the other day showed 13 cars and trucks parked around the President's house and barn. And this probably wasn't a complete tally, since it covered only those vehicles in view from a single vantage point. The White House staff is not too happy about Tony, the black and white Shetland pony owned by the Elsenhower grandchildren and stabler! on the President's farm for their use when they visit here. It Sfems that the pony true Scot that he Is has a slightly unpredictable streak. David, the President's 7 - year old - grand son, has ridden Tony a number of times and reportedly has been tossed off almost as often. Every youngster who ever had a pony has been thrown. But with these particular youngsters, no- Advice Offered To Taxpayers I District Director Ralph C. Granqulst announced today that during the coming income tax fil-' ing period the policy of the In ternal Revenue Service will be to advise taxpayers how to correctly prepare their own returns rather than funlshing unlimited services. Internal Revenue employes will furnish Information and advice where it Is actually needed, but win not prepare returns for tax payers except for those persons who are physically or mentally un able to prepare their own returns. Granquist stated that under the new program established by the Regional Office In San Francisco Monday of each week beginning1 Jan. 9 until April 16, 1956, has been selected as the particular day when the local offices in the state ot Oregon will concentrate their efforts In furnishing Informa tion and guidance. body takes any chances. So when David ridt'S Tony or drives him, hitched to a pony cart, a Secret Service man always is right there to catch, grab, or lake over. Maybe .the children's second pony, a gift last week from J.R. Lackey o( Ashville, N.C. will prove more even-tern perod. It is a tywn and white "Horse pony," five yea-s old, and named, appropriately, "Little David." The crisis atmosphere that per vaded the temporary White House in Denver after the President's heart attack Sept. 24 has vanished Operations at Gettysburg now are about as routine as is possible on any presidential trip or visit outside Washington. With the Pres ident well on the way to recovery newsmen rarely even nsk unymori how he is feeling. When they do the answer Is "fine'." The press corps, Incidentally, has been dwindling somewhat. Still on the scene daily are about 21 newsmen, Including three rep resenting radio and TV. There are also still and movie photographers, and technicians of various kin:U. Except for the fact they have about the world's biggest press room to work In, this still would stack up as a crowd. Everybody marveled at the banks of flowers, in full bloom that graced the hothouse off the Eisenhower veranda when the President arived here three weeks ago. The secret is that the flowers were bought already In bloom, so the place would look its best. The hothouse was too new to have produced its own blossoms. OFFER MADE RALEIGH, N.C.

' ' Paschen is one of the nation's biggest building maintenance con dors. His grandfather was Chi cago's first tuckpointer. Modern architecture is all wet," said Paschen. "Literally." For Instance, some of the gleam ing new glass and steel apartment buildings on Chicago! lake front leak like sieves" in a heavy rain. he claimed. extreme to another, Paschen con tinued, from the overstuffed gin gerbread motif with ornate cor nices and doodads to the stark, sheer, "straight up - and - down look." The old fashioned building can be a hazard to life and limb. Pas chen said. One of his crews at work on an older downtown build ing recently tossed a Kne over a xrnice and "almost pulled it loose." According to Pasciien, wt-'r Architecture has gone from ooewalking around "with a lot of de caying masonry hinging over our heads." Predicts Change But It seems the "modern look" has its disadvantages, too. "These modem buildings just arent properly sheltered," Pasch en said. "Water runs down the sides and seeps into the mortar joints." One outstanding exception, he said is the recently completed Prudential skyscraper on the lake front here. It has huge windows mounted in aluminum panels known as spandrels. "But the windows are framed In rubber," he said, "inflated rubber tubing that seals them tight." W0. For Travel Fun!
