PAGE TWO MEDFORD M ATT, TRIBUNE, MEDFOHD, QREOOy. FRIDAY. JULY 15. 1938. BANG'S DISEASE Recent Decrease in Federal ' Indemnity Payments Will Have Little Effect Says State Veterinarian. BALXM (Spl.) Piuu under way for a sweeping state-wide drive to clean up Bang's disease In the dairy nd beef cattle herds In Oregon will be little effected by the recent de crease In Federal Indemnity pay ments to raisers. Dr. W. H. Lytle, state reterlnarlsn, predicted today. The setting up of Bang's control committees In each cf the counties Is progressing favorably, the state department of agriculture also an nounced. The local committees will be In charge of securing cooperation for the testing and condemning work In their areas. The drive to reduce reactor ani mals to a minimum Is designed to take full advantage of present fed eral Indemnity payments which will be subject to change after May 1. 1938. At that time each state Is ex pected to have to contribute a sum equal to that put up by Uie federal government. Congressional action has cut fed eral Bang's Indemnity psymenta to one-third of the difference between the appraised value and the salvage value of slaughtered animals. Dr. Lytle said. The resulting sum Is suf ficient, however, to permit cattle raisers to clean up without experi encing heavy financial losses, It Is believed. "This congressional action should serve to Impress upon cattle raisers the necessity of getting Bsng'e dis ease testing and eradication carried out Immediately." Dr. Lytle says. Infected derds bring financial loss. If reactor animals are not decreased In number by May 1 of next year, It Is likely thst Indemnity payments will cesse altogether. The state could not match federal payments as It I will be required to do unless the numbers of reactors are brought GRAZING FEES TO STAY SAYS ICKES WASHINOTON, July UP) Present fees for public grazing on federal range lands In tile west will remain unchanged. Secretary Ickes, making the an nouncement, said the rates were pro vided In revised rules and regulations approved by the Interior department and affected 18,000 stock men with about 10,000.000 head of cattle, sheep, horses and goats grazing on 120,000,000 acres of the public do main In ten states. Five cents a head a month will be charged for cattle and horses, and one cent for esch Uieep and goats A fee of of one cent a head a day will be collected for cattle and horses while crossing the federal range to other areas. A fee cf 1-30 of one cent a dsy will be charged for sheep and goats crossing the federal range. Eventual Sales Tax Seen In Financing of Pensions WASHINGTON, July 15. OR An expert close to the social security board predicted today a general sales tax eventually would replaoe payroll levies to finance old age pensions. He said this might happen In five or ten years, depending on how the scope' of the social security act Is broadened. t The expert, who declined use of his name, asserted the projected In clusion of farmers and other self' employed persons In the security sys tem would msks the payroll tax too clumsy and burdensome, ' At present,' both the employe and his employer pay an old age tax of one percent on the employe's salary. These rates will rise to 3 percent each In 1049. A fanner, being his own employer, could not be asked to pay a s percent tax on his cash Income, the expert explained. In addition to farmers, the social security heard wants to Include do mestic servants, marine workers and employee of educational and charit able Institutions. Because thouasnds of persons di vide their working years between woklng for others and for thenv selves, the Informant said, the sys tem eventually may Include all In' come -earning persons. The pension scale probably would not be very different from the (10 to 185 per month now provided for payment beginning In 1041. When that happens, he predicted, the annual cost of pensions will be about 88.OO0.000.O00, or a sum equal to about 10 percent of he estimated national Income for this year. The highest federal revenue ever achieved in one year was ie.7O0.00O.0C0. This year's federal Income Is expected to be only as .000.000.000. The expert suggested the govern ment might adopt a small earnings tax or a or 8 percent on Income between 8300 and 83.000 a year which would raise about 81,000,000,000, but would be Intended primarily as means of registering the persons eligible for pensions. The bulk of the cost, he said, would have to be financed by some other general and productive tax such as a sales tax. Ball Causes Burns WORCESTER, Mass.

BETTER PRICE ON MEDFORD'S PEARS SEEN FOR SEASON "We do not look for too high price level this season on pears, but we do hope and look for better prices than prevailed last year," It Is stated In a bulletin Issued by Gordon R. Green, division manager of Amer ican Fruit Growers, Inc., who re cently returned from his annual tour of eastern markets. 6aylng there Is a brighter pros pect for foreign buslneaa, Mr. Green continued: "In our opinion there will be a rather good demand for the better quality fruit this year In both the domestic and export markets. The grower or shipper who has the best qusllty and price In line will get the edge." Illustrating his point regarding qusllty fruit, Mr. Green related that while he was In New Tork he saw Wenatchee cherries outsell the Cali fornia product as much as SO to ao cents a box, simply because the Washington cherries arrived In bet ter condition. Mr. Green told of an 880.000 pro motional campaign to be conducted for California Bartletu between July 18 and October 1. and declared Med ford pears would benefit from this advertising. Tears grown In this district, prop erly pre-cooled, are now able more nearly to compete with the Cali fornia fresh Bartletu and as we shall start packing Bartletts around August 11 we shall enjoy the most of this advertising effort."
