FAST MOVES FOR OF Peace Time Record Set in Appropriation Over Three and Half Billion Dollars for Public Works Program WASHINGTON, June lfi.-(P) Or der are out from th Wtvt llouae that the governments moat ambitious attempt to bring Industrial recovery ahall be set in motion within thirty daya. Without even waiting to get the In dustrial control -pub He worka bill in hand for signature. President Rooee- velt summoned cabinet advisers around him, had Oeneral Hugh John son the designated director of the act explain In dcta.lt all plana he has made, and then gave the word ti push everything. The bill was finally passed by con gress and the accompanying record peace-time appropriation of more than three and a, half billion dol lars, to formally approve outlay of the money which bond Issues will raise for a p u bile construction program on a hitherto unheard-of scale. Employ Million Men Not only la this construction, de signed to employ a million men, to get going within a month, but also the vast new governmental enterprise of supervising business so that It shall master overproduction by agree ment, hold up price levels, boost wages and curtail the working time of labor. Many industries already have sub mitted programs for such codes. All are being Inspected carefully to make sure they live up to the administra tion's expectations. To make them possible the new law has - reversed temporarily a generation's governmen tal attitude towards business, sus pending the anti-trust laws which had aought to protect the "little man" agalnat destruction from big business, but which generally result ed In perpetuating cut-throat de structive competition In which the little fellow often came out last. Cabinet to Assist The president assigned four of his cabinet to keep an eye on and assist the giant enterprise: Roper of com merce, Ickea of the Interior, Wallace of agriculture, and Perkins of labor, all will assist Johnson In his work. The latter has worked so fast tn t:ie weeka alnce the president detail ed him to the Job, that he has mil lions of dollars worth of public pro jects picked out for Immediate call ing of bids, and also has chosen an advisory board for fully balancing in dustry and labor to scrutinise and approve the industrial code and gen eral direction of the recovery plan. The construction to be undertaken goes In every direction: besides the usual federal buildings, hlghwaya, river and harbor Improvements, room ha.; been made for state, local and public benefiting private expendi tures ranging to slum eradication and similar developments. On top of that there Is to be work for shipyards through construction of 32 additional vessels for the navy, and more air plane building for the army.

Phona 260 RESCUE BOLL FROM EVANS CREEK ILL Under the caption "DInR dong, bell, the bull fell In the well," the follow ing actlcle appears In tho laat issue of The Forest Log. monthly publica tion of the Oregon state board of forestry: Dorri Coy and Lloyd Morris, two of the patrolmen of the Jackson, coun ty unit, have been occupied during the past week or so in repairing the telephone Una that runs out of the town of Rogue River up Evana creek. Recently, they were working near an abandoned ranch when they heard some peculiar muffled rumblings coming from near the ranch build ings. The noise was so unusual that to investigate, but a failed to reveal the they decided brief search source. They stood around, puzzled, when suddenly a distinct bellow came out of the ground. The mystery waa solv ed. The boys ran to an old well and there at the bottom was a 1600-pound bull. How to get the bull out was the problem, but they succeeded and without any outside help. First, they managed to get props around the ani mal and then taking their shovels they changed the course of a nearby stream ao that It ran Into the well. Slowly the well filled, the bull swim ming around with the boys aiding him with the props. At last the wat er reached the top and the animal scrambled out. Friends of the two patrolmen have started agitation for a cowhide medal for each of the gallant rescuers, but Coy and Morris olalm o be amply rewarded with a suspicion of bovine gratitude. 1 .See the Dryer Easy Washer, $124.30 Leonard Elec. Holly Bldg. TO IS ROOSEVELTS IDEA Will Raise $250,000,000 by Process Tax On Wheat and Cotton to Reimburse Farmers Cutting Acreage By ROY r. IIKSDRICKSOM (Associated Press Staff Writer) (Copyright, 1033. cy the Associated Press) WASHINGTON. June IB. P) The administration Intends to raUe $230, 000. 000 by processing taxes on wheat and cotton which It will levy at their maximum ejlze' In a bold program aimed to better long-range farm prlcea by cutting down production. The government's plana provide that most of the sum will be used to reward farmers who agree to reduce their output in concert with the fed eral drive to halt the piling up of surpluses, long a price-depressing problem for growers of the two chief cash crops of the United States. Announce Plan Friday President Roosevelt has approved a program, devised under powera pro vided by the new farm act. which Secretary Wallace will make public tomorrow. A comprehensive acreage curtailment program will be launched Immediately for cotton, to take out aa much aa 10.000,000 acrea of the crop now growing. No effort will be made to cut pro duction of the wheat now nearlng harvest. Winter-kill and bad weather have cut the prospeots for thla crop down to approximate domestic needs for the first time thla century.- al though there la expected to be carry over of about 3SO.000.0O0 bushels on July 1, beginning of the new market ing year. The wheat program, how ever, la to be put Into effect on fall plantlng.- Plan ar Complete Wallace haa completed detaila of both programs except for a few, ele ments still open. One. subject to change, Is the exact time the taxes will go Into effect. He la authorized by the farm act to levy them at the beginning of the crop year for each commodity. That would be July t in the case of wheat and August 1 In the case of cotton. Both may be de layed until August. The tax on cotton la expected to be four -cents a pound. That on wheat, 28 to 30 cents a bushel. If Engaged to Wed i The engagement of Helen CooL fdge, daughter of Senator and Mra. Marcus Coolidge of Massa chusetts, to Harry Woodring, as iatant secretary of war and for mer governor of Kansas, haa been announced. (Associated Press Photo. the price of either drop before collec Iton of the tax begin, the rate could be boosted, while If prices rose as a result of the prospect of a smaller future suppply. the tax could be smaller, since Wallace's power au thorizes him to levy a tax which, at It maximum represents the difference between the current price and the "parity" price which Is based on pre war average levels. Parity essentially Is the price which bears the same relationship to the price level of things farmers buy as farm prices bore to the cost of con sumption goods during the period 1909 to 1914. The tax is to be collected on all cotton and wheat at the first point of processing, but is to be refunded on processed commodities which axe exported.
