Fiscal Calendar Os k U. S. Ends Tonight Deficit Estimated Over Eight Billion I WASHINGTON UP —This was New Year’s Eve for thp federal government, and as usual it brought a lot of headaches. On the fiscal calendar which the government uses, 1953 will give way to 1954 at the stroke of midnight tonight. No bell-ring, horn-blowing or wild parties were planned to celebrate •the occasion, but administration and congressional leaders were abundantly aware of the date because: 1. The books' which the federal treasury will cldse out tonight are more deeply stained with red ink than at the end of any fiscal year since World War 11. The prospective deficit was- estimated at close to $8,500,000,000. This has already been covered by borrowing. 2. The defense production act, which gives thq, government power to allocate scarce materials to defense industries, expires at midnight. Legislation to extend it is tied up in a deadlocked senatehouse conference committee, which meets again today. •) 3. The start of the new‘fiscal year will find only two federal agencies — the treasury and the post office department — with 1954 operating funds. Congress has not finished work on any other a'ppropriation bills. But this happens every year and congress met the “crisis” this time as it always has in the past. Monday a stop-gap bill was rushed to the White House authorizing all agencies to continue spending at the level of their fiscal 1953 appropriations until their new appropriations are passed. 4. The national production authority, one of the home front control agencies set up after the Korean war began, was supposed to go out of business at midnight. But the commerce department said it

Scores Teachers For ■ :■ I ; \ Refusal To Answer Ohio Superintendent Speaks At Meeting MIAMI BEACH, Fla., UP —An Ohio 'school superintendent today condemned educators who hide 'behind the fifth amendment of the federal constitution whten questioned hy investigating com* mittees. ’■ , ■ / “All educators called before Congressional investigating committees should give full and honest answers when their loyalty is at stake,” said Dr. Martin Essex, Lakewood, G., superintendent of schools. Essex was to preside as chairman over a meeting of the committee on tenure and academic freedom at the annual convention of national education association here. 7 ; ' “I am fully aware of the lack of fairness displayed by many congressional investigations, but we educators cannot condone a teacher’s refusal to give evidence about himself,** Essex said. I, “Os the very few educators suspected of Communist tendencies, I am glad to report none has been an NEA member,” he added. Reporting on a nationwide survey of the teaching of controversial subjects, the Ohio educator urged that local school boards adopt orderly procedures for handling such cases. | Such! procedures, accompanied by written and publicly understood policies on teaching controversial subjects, would go far to reestablish teacher confidence and feeling of security, the committed report said. Feed For Livestock In Drought Areas Eight Million Fund Set By Government WASHINGTON, UP — Agriculture department officials today got ready to ship up to $8,009,000 worth of/ livestock shed into drought-parched counties of Texas and Oklahoma and indicated the railroads have agreed to cut freight rates on the emergency shipments. A spokesman said the Santa Fe line, one of six serving the may cut its shipping rates 50 percent. He , said William Faricy, president of the American association of railroads, assured secretary of agriculture Ezra T. Benson tjiat railroads will give their “whole hearted cooperation” to the requested reduction in rates. Shipment of feed into the areas reduced freight rates, and establishment of a special federal credit plan- were the main points of the drought relief program outlined by Benson Monday after a White House conference. The $8,000,000 will come frorii President Eisenhower’s’ special emergency fund. New Mexico, Colorado and Kansas may be included later in the designated disaster area, but not until a formal request is made by the governors of those states. The federal relief money will be used to reimburse the agriculture department for the difference between the bargain price charged ranchers for the feed and the price the department paid for it under price support operations. The bbaird of\the commodity credit corporation will decide just what price ranchers will have to pay. Trade In a good Town—'Decatur TEEPLE MOVING & TRUCKING Local and Long Distance PHONE 3-2607
