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.

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.

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

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.

certainly know enough about the

is personal, so when I light a Lucky

in any number and still find them
