Another Huge Wheat Crop In U. S. Forecast Government's Soil Bonk Program Seen Wrecked For Year WASHINGTON (UP> — A combination of good growing weather and the productive know-how of American farmers appeared today to have wrecked the government’s soil bank program for wheat this year. Another big wheat crop is estimated despite the fact that 12,785,000 acres of Wheatland were put into the soil bank. The Department of Agriculture pledged to pay farmers a maximum of $230,848,755 in subsidies on this land. It had estimated that these acres out of produpttbn (would cut the 1957 wheat crop by

109-150 million bushels, thereby reducing the surplus that has been piling up for several years. But the Agriculture Department estimated today in its June 1 crop report that this year’s wheat crop will total about 971 million bushels —only 3 per cent less than last year. If the estimated crop materializes, the surplus will be increased, probably by 20 million bushes or more, instead of reduced. Moisture Is Plentiful Department officials do not consider the money pledged under the soil bank will all have gone "down-the-drain.” They pointed out that if a huge acreage had not been retired from production, the wheat crop this year would have been tremendous. Previous big crops that helped build up the surplus were grown in drought years. This year the drought appeared to be slowed if, not stopped, and moisture in the wheat area is plentiful. “Crop prospects over much of the nation appear favorable for a large total production,” the department said. The winter wheat crop, which is about ready for**harvest, was estimated at 736 million bushels. This compares with the 1956 crop of 735 million bushels. The spring

wheat crop was estimated at 235 million bushels. This estimate was based largely on prospective planted acreage in march, and easily could go higher with good growing weather. Increase in Three* States The yield prospect for winter wheat is 23.6 bushels an acre, the highest on record. It is sharply above the 1956 yield of 20.6 bushels and the average of 18.6 bushels. Increases from May 1 prospects occurred largely in Kansas, Nebraska, and Colorado. These states in previous years were hit hard by drought. The department called the increases in prospect “sharp” in Kansas, “substantial" in Nebraska, and "continuing to improve” in Colorado. The prospective increases in these states more than offset decreases in several south central and southeastern states. . - • The department also said 1957 is “proving to be an outstanding forage year” with good to excellent pasture prospects and an anticipated large hay tonnage. -"tl • State Government Costs Increasing Increasing Faster Than U. S. Budget United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO (UP) —The trim-the-budget fever that has boosted political temperatures in Washington this spring has not proved contagious in state legislatures across the nation. A United Press survey showed today that costs of state government are increasing at a faster clip than those of the federal government and that budget - cutting drives similar to the attack on President Eisenhower’s budget occurred in only three states. Budgets presented to 1957 legislatures are up 10 to 20 per cent over last year. And the survey showed that the average state budget has increased by 97 per cent over th? pre-Korean War year of 1949. The 1957 federal budget of $71,800,000,000, on the other hand, represents an 81 per cent increase over the $39,500,000,00 expenditures of 1949. Economizers have done a lot of talking in the states but only in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Massachusetts nave governors

and legislatures squared off in budget fights as turbulent as the tnoney differences between Eisenhower and the Congress. All-Time Highs Most state budgets reached alltime highs. Die nation's biggest this year is in California where Gov. Goodwin J. Knight asked for almost $2 billion. New York State’s budget is $1,600,000,000 but that includes only a portion of the $1,900,000,000 of New York City. The 1957 Illinois budget if sl,100,000,000, those of Pennsylvania and Michigan around $1 billion. In contrast, Montana’s government cost will be less than $36 million and North Dakota expects to get by on about $46 million. The U.P. survey shows that increases over the 1949 budgets run from only 32 per cent in the state

. of Washington to 166 per cent in Ohio and Maryland. Schools, highways and public welfare take the lion’s share in that order. Ballooning public school enrollments have forced governors to request sharply increased funds for more teachers and higher salaries and to build new schools. Twin Major Causes Steadily mounting population and inflation are the twin major causes of bigger budgets, but the states also have extended their services into many more fields. To meet rising costs, many state legislatures have, voted new taxes. Rhode Island voted a penny increase in its sales tax and Utah extended its sales tax to cover beer, cigarettes and. oleomargarine. Indiana. Oklahoma, South Dakota and Utah boosted gasoline taxes, Indiana and Idaho raised state income taxes, Michigan and Nebraska boosted dgarete taxes, Michigan and Texas raised tuition upped its liquor tax. lowa lowered its sales tax and states that rejected tax increases included Arizona, California, Connecticut. Illinois, Minnesota, Nevada, Ohio and I .nnessee. Retaliation PIERRE, S. D. (UP) — State Senator "Corny” D. Neui, Chancellor, S. D., is hopping mad about a bill introduced to outlaw fireworks in South Dakota. He retaliated with a bill to prohibit rodeos. At Last WAUSAU, Wis. (UP) — Leon Meyer of Rothchild blew his nose extra hard and out popped the plastic tip of an arrow which had hit him just below the eye in the sumpier of 1944. The tip apparently had penetrated into a nasal passage and remained there for more than 12 years. Meyer said he hadn’t felt a thing all the time.
