A Traffic Problem An aggravated school bus driver mentioned this week the problem of congestion at the various school entrances on cold winter days. This week, when the temperature was supposed to be 18 below zero, he had to wait for 30 minutes before he could “get in line” and unload his students. He didn’t mind, but the youngsters got pretty well chilled, as the bus heaters aren’t the best when the weather is ‘way below zero. The traffic flow around all of the schools presents quite a problem during bad weather. Parents naturally want to bring their children to school. Five or six -buses _br i n g _fti the country school children, and those from remote parts of town. While loading and unloading zones FOR BUSES ONLY are clearly marked, it is sometimes impossible lor the buses to thread their way through the traffic to get to them. It would seem that some reasonable traffic pattern could be set up, with buses stopping at certain places, and autos at others. In the afternoon, the problem is complicated by industrial traffic. One-way streets have helped some, but the problem still exists. And parking continues to be a chore. While there are now some limits on student driving to the high school, there is almost no parking now for the cars that are driven. And teacher parking must be added to the student parking. It might even be possible at the high school to load and unload the buses in the new parking lot off Third street by the gym entrance. This has been suggested. Undoubtedly school officials, working with the Decatur city police and the Parent-Teachers Association, can work out a sensible plan, and put it into effect so that the children, either in cars or in buses, or walking, will not have to be kept out in the cold unduly, and that normal traffic can move on the city streets.

PROCLAMATION! WHEREAS, Many American* who believe in the existence of God still neglect or reject public worship of Him, and WHEREAS, Public recognition by our citizens of their faith in the Creator is an essential part of that faith, and WHEREAS, The family by praying and worshiping together, asking God's blessing and giving Him their thanks for favors received, gives spiritual strength and unity to America, and WHEREAS, The implantation of ideals and the instilling of a sense of moral and spiritual values in our youth are essential to the molding of character and to the preservation of a strong and God-blessed nation; now, therefore, be it RESOLVED, I do hereby proclaim the week of February 3, as Religious Emphasis Week, calling upon the American people to not only observe this special week, but the weeks to follow, in regular public worship at the church or synagogue of their faith, daily family prayer, and the religious education of our children. Signed, this 31st day of January, 1963. DONALD F. GAGE, Mayor of Decatur ASCS Farm Notes

ANNUAL COUNTY AND COMMUNITY DINNER MEETING: The second annual dinner meeting for county and community ASC committeemen, their wives and special guests, was held recently at the Palmer House in Berne. Lenard C. Pound, chairman of the Indiana agricultural staMization and conservation committee, was the principal speaker. Pound very aptly explained the 1963 feed grain program. Pound, a Sullivan county farmer, has been an employe of the department of agriculture since 1933, having, served as secretarytreasurer to the county committee, fieldman, and supervised the state federal corp Insurance program. He understands the rural and urban problems and endeavors to create a better understanding between the rural and urban peoples Edwin F. Reddick, farmer fieldman, for northeastern Indiana, assisted Pound by the use of charts for explaining the feed grain program. Dick Heller, editor of the Decatur Daily Democrat, described agriculture in the Far East by use of slides. Other ASCS people attending were: Wayne Beery, grain storage supervisor; Mrs. J. Inez Markley, office manager, Wells county; Chester Crates, office manager, Allen county; Robert Taylor, office manager>.Jajt county; Tom county committee, and Mrs. Betty Bucher, employe of the Allen county office. The door prize, a cake in the replica of the White House, was awarded to Lyle Bailey, chairman of the St. Mary’s community committee. Center pieces were awarded to Mrs. Donald Grote, Mrs. Richard Moser, Mrs. Eli Schwartz, Mrs. Betty Bucher, Richard Moser and Ray Eichenauer. 1964 WHEAT REFERENDUM: This year is a year of decision for wheat farmers. In late May or early June, they will vote in a referendum. The choices are between wheat priced at $2 per bushel and wheat priced at $1 per bushel; between economic survival and economic ruin for thousands of wheat farms; between order and chaos in domestic markets; between a program honoring our inter-national trade obligations and one resulting in unlimited cheap wheat available to dump in world markets, secretary of agriculture, Orville L. Freeman, recently stated. Facts were also cited by the secretary: for farmers, the new wheat program will be simple and familiar. There will be a national marketing quota geared to our total requirements, allowing for a few years of carryover reduction. The national acreage allotment will be flexible, based on the marketing quota. Farm acreage allotments and the voluntary acreage diversion program provided in the law are in all respects similar to those now in effect. This voluntary feature has been largely overlooked. The 15-acre exemption is terminated, and the producers who have uied ’lt may participate in the program. Price support for most of the normal production on the acreage allotment in 1964 will be at least $2 per bushel, and will be generally the same as now. For the grain industry, the program offers the prospect of an expanded wheat trade — especially

when wheat can be produced on feed grain acreage. Once more, the trade can turn primarily to those functions which it has traditionally performed — to merchandising needed supplies instead of storing unwanted stocks. The department of agriculture is hard at work on the details of the wheat program. Discussions with trade and farm groups will continue. Announcements of the program will be made early enough so that all concerned will see the real wheat program. Detailed information will be printed in this column as reserved in the county office. This is important to all wheat producers — watch for it. 1963 FEED GRAIN PROGRAM: Here’s a note about the 1963 feed grain program — notices listing the base of each feed grain crop (corn, grain sorghum an d barley) the minimum rate and maximum rate of payment, the yield, (as established by community and county committeemen) and the required conserving acreage, will be mailed this week. Farmers receiving such notices should* not jump at conclusions — thinking the program will not fit in their rotation — but should come to the county office to see how their farm fits in, and find xHit..ihe...amount they be eligible to receive for diverting acreage from the production of feed grains. There is an 18 cent per bushel, based on the normal established yield, payment in addition to the rates listed on the (tptice. In addition to the diversion payments and the extra 18 cents per bushel, the farmer who participates in the program also qualifies for the regular price-support loans or purchase agreements on the feed grain crops produced on the farm signed up in the program. We suggest that farmers who would like more information about this program should visit the county office at an early date, keeping in mind that the program sign-up ends on March 22. The 1963 feed grain program is the best ever — come in soon. HIGHLIGHTS OF WORLD FARM OUTPUT: LIVESTOCK AND LIVESTOCK PRODUCTS: In 1962 the postwar uptrend in livestock numbers and the production of meat and meat products continues. Cattle numbers totaled 1,035 million head, up 20 million from the previous year. Hog numbers reached a record high of 483 million, 4 per cent higher than the year before, but sheep, at 990 million, were just 1 million below the peak reached in 1960 . In 41 of the major producing countries, excluding Communist China, meat production reached a new record in 1962 of about 105 billion pounds. World lard output rose to about 8.4 billion pounds in 1962, up slightly from 1961. The United States continued to be the world’s (leading producer and exporter, with slight gains in output. Gains also were recorded in Western Europe, Eastern Europe, and the USSR. A further production increase is expected in 1963. DAIRY PRODUCTS AND POULTRY: Estimated at 687 million pounds for 1962, cows’ milk showed a 1cent rise over the 1961 figure. There were minor declines in Denmark, France, Italy, and East Germany, which were than offset by moderate increases among oth-

er large producing countries. A I further increase is expected this | year. Os the manufactured dairy products, butter, estimated at 5.55 j million pounds, !s up 3 per cent from 1961. Output of both cheese and nonfat dry milk is expected to ( expand, and that of canned milk , and dry whole milk to decline. ] Egg and poultry production in 1962 continued the upward trend of recent years. Increases in egg | production were scattered throughout the world. The highly indus- ] totalized countries of Western Eur- j ope boosted their output of poul- < try meat, but in North America it was down slightly, for the first j time since 1955. Fewer turkeys in both the United States and j Canada were responsible. SUGAR, BEVERAGES, * AND TOBACCO: The 1962-63 world production of ’ centrifugal sugar is estimated at 1 56.0 million the proceeding season, with most of the decline in 1 Cuba and Europe. ( , Coffee production for the mar- ( keting year beginning October, • 1962, is estimated at 65.9 million bags, 7.4 percent below the large crop of 1961-62. Exportable cos- , efee is expected to be 6 million ’ bags above import requirements, ’ which will cause a further accumulation of coffee surpluses and con- ’ tinued marketing problems. The tea crop for 1962 at 2,255 million pounds is also up 2.5 per cent over 1961. Production has increased in all major tea countries in recent years, and though Asia is stiff the largest producing area, the most significant increase ’ has occurred in Africa. World production of tobacco set ; a record in 1962 : 9.1 billion pounds , compared with about 8.7 billion : in 1961. Flue-cured was at an all- : time high of 3.5 billion pounds, and oriental totaled 1.1 billion. The U. S. flue-crop of 1.4 billion pounds 1 was over 100 million above 1961. FIBERS: Highlighting the world cotton I situation in 1962-63 is another rec- , ord production likely to result in the first increase in world stocks since 1955-56 — that is, if world consumption remains unchanged, as expected. Estimated at 49.2 million bales, the crop is up 1 , . million from a year earlier. Free world output is expected to reach ■ 20.6 million bales, that of the Communist countries, 14 million. At 5.7 billion pounds, the 1962 wool production is about the same 1 as it was the pilous year. COUNTY COMMITTEE AND AC DEVELOPMENT GROUP MEET: The county committee, James Garboden, chairman, Richard L. Moser, vice chairman and Roy ’ Balsiger met with the agricultural conservation development group: Milton Spence, soil conservation work unit technician, Leo N. Seltenright, county agent, Donald Nor--1 quest, supervisor of Farmer’s 1 Home Administration, and Don Bickel, forest service representative, in the ASCS county office, ’ Monday for a discussion of conservation problems in the county. The committee and group set June 1 as the final date for the ’ application of limestone to legumes and grasses (not to be 1 turned under until after December 1) to qualify for the provision of one summer growing season.

What difference, if any, is there between the wording of a church wedding invitation and a house wedding invitation? A. The only difference is that in the house wedding a home address takes the place of the name of the church and, since space is usually at a premium, “R. s, v. p.” is usually added. Q. Our friends are all people in their thirties, and very young in looks and sp’rit. Is it all right for our children to call them by their first names? A. It is best to consult your friends about this. Otherwise, your children should be taught to address them as “Mr.” and "Mrs.” Q. If a young man phones a girl who is not at home, and he leaves his number, is it proper for her to return the call when she returns home? y I A. Certainly.
