The previous finaldate was The earliest deadline for, disposing, of props ip July 37. having been extended, from July 15. n ,.- ;-!-/■ r Brown explained that these revisions have been made in soil bank regulations because some county ASC committees as yet have been unable to sign up all; the farmers who want to .partici pate in the 1956 acreage reserve. It is also believed that the change, in the final “sign-up” date may avoid possible confusion, since the prior final date was July 20 —the same day as the wheat marketing quota referendum held throughout commercial wheat areas. The above changes affect onlj’ compliance with the 1956 acreage reserve program, and in no way extend disposition dates for compliance with allotments under price-support and marketing*lfhota programs. — —*W.w 17 Slates Turning Back Polio Vaccine Demand Is Lagging For Polio Vaccine WASHINGTON (UP) — The public health service announced today that 17 states have turned back nearly 2VJ million Salk polkshots because of lagging demands.

The states which turned back the shots are: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida. Georgia. Idaho, Indiana. Kentucky, Louisiana. Maryland. Mississippi, Missouri.

This boosted this year’s output so far to more than 52,000,000 shots—far more than the 30.060.060 released tn the whole << 1955.

And because dreams of a Cadillac are hard to put aside, we suspect that it won’t be too long now before we’ll have an opportunity to give them the facts about Cadillac ownership. And when that time arrives, they’ll find that we have some wonderful news for them about how practical Cadillac ownership has recently become. We will explain that it is now possible to become the happy owner of a 1956 Cadillac for little more than the cost of far lesser cars. We will also tell them how economical a Cadillac is to operate — and how extraordinarily free it
