PAGE FOUR

The emotional furor over M toetog your identity* to numbers has died down somewhat in Indiana, and it might be possible to approach the problem somewhat rationally again. So let’s take a common example as expressed tn the title. Who is Smitty? Generally speaking, “Smitty” could be the nickname for someone named Smith, Schmidt, Schmitt, etc. — either first or last name, in fact. But it fen’t very helpful, is it? You don’t know which Smith. Now, if I say, “John Smith,” this is a little more helpful, but not too explicit. There are many, many John Smiths in the world. Then I say John H. Smith, I am beginning to narrow it down. When I say John H. Smith, 35, W. Seventh, Decatur, Ind., then I have pretty well made clear which John H. Smith I mean. Now we have added another way of making it even clearer. There are dozens of post offices in the country named Decatur — or Monroe, or Preble, etc. Mail is frequently missent because part of the address is illegible, or it is miswritten. To speed the mail System, an identifying number has been added. Now Decatur, Ind. — which looks like Decatur, Hl. — if further identified by 46733 added after Ind. If you? correspondent accidentally writes Decatur 111., 46733, iu will be clear that the letter goes to Decatur, Ind. ' Adding the ZIP number is like adding an account procedure to check your figures. It means less missent mail. It also means a financial savings, because handling in big post offices will be simpler. This savings can be used in improving services. , You’ve no doubt noticed that most big users of the mail are now adding ZIP numbers. When your insurance is due, add it to your address; also be sure your magazine and newspaper subscriptions include it — it may help you get your mail faster. It is meant to help, not hinder you. It is an additional identification, and adds, rather than substracts, from your identify. .Don’t let the hate groups take you in!

ASCS Farm Notes

HAVE TOC MADE PLANS FOX CONSERVATION IN ISM? Now to the time to plan to do something about those conservation problems on your farms Don’t wait until a minor problem becomes a major problem — those are harder to control. The agricultural conservation program was developed to assist farmers by Aartag the cost of conservation practice* most needed on their farms. Under the program the federal government shares about SO per cent of the cost of most approved practices. Farmers who intend to carry out conservation practices during the year 1964 are urged to call at the county ASCS office and ffle a request for cost-sharing at an early date, so the request may be considered for approval while funds are available. Adams county has been allocated $55,459 to be used for costsharing under the 1964 program. The year began January 1, 1964 and ends December 31. 1964. Again, we say — “don’t forget, the request for cost-sharing must be signed in the county office before the practice is stegL ed.” NOTICES OF BASE ACREAGES. YIELDS. RATES TO BE MAILED--1964 FEED GRAIN PROGRAM: All known feed grain producers (owners and operators) will receive notices of the 1564 feed grain base acreage, yield per acre, payment rates, and the conserving acreage base, about January 18. Plan now, for participation in the program. In the majority of cases, the yields and rates.are higher that in previous years, and it will be to your interest to studv your notice carefully. This year, the program offers more opportunities than ever before — also. higher cash returns. CONGRESS PROVIDES NEW SELF-HELP TOOLS: Important new tools to help rural people help themselves were provided by the congress in 1962 — these tools are available to help in 1964. These included “toe food and agriculture act of 1962,” “the senior housing act,’’ “t h e accelerated public works act” and “the manpower development and training program.” With these new tools and the programs already, operated fey tije department of agriculture and other departments of independent agencies, individuals and their local agencies can create new economic opportunities through conservation, development and multiple use of land, water, and related resources; strengthen family farms establish and improve marketing facilities for farm products, establish new industry, provide job training or retaining, improve housing and increase the income of' rural farm and nonfarm people. Food and agriculture act of 1962 — Under programs provided by this act, the department is aiding local people with: 1. Resource conservation and development projects. 2. Rural renewal projects. 3. Long - term changes of land use from crops to recreation, grass, trees, and fish and wildlife production. 4. Development of public recreation and future municipal and industrial water supply in small watershed projects. 5. Credit for developing and operating income - producing outdoor recreation and other improved uses of land. Senior citizen housing — The department’s loan program now includes loans to build housing for rural people 62 years of age or older. They are eligible for loans to buy existing housing or to build or improve their homes. A new insured loan program en-

ables commercial concerns to build rental housing for the elderly. Loans to nonprofit organizations and cooperative also are authorized to provide rental housing for the elderly. Loans to nonprofit organizations and cooperative also are authorized to provice rental housing for toe older people. Accelerated public works — Jobs are being created by this new program in rural areas designated for help under the area redevelopment act. These public public works are being carried out in national and state forests, small watershed projects, and soil conservation districts. Some construction work is being done at agricultural experiment stations. Accelerated public works program is coordinated by toe department of commerce’s area redevelopment and administration. Manpower development and training — members of farm families with a net annual income of less than $1,200 as well as unemployed farm and nonfarm workers, are eligible, under the department of labor program, for training in skills needed in toe labor market area where they live, or in other sections of the nation. . RURAL AREAS " DEVELOPMENT: From farm to main street, many areas of rural America are on toe move snapping out of the economic doldrums caused by rapid changes in agriculture. In these areas, economic decline is being reversed by new payroll and other growth. More young people are finding jobs at home, rather than moving to the city. Cropland is being converted to income - making outdoor recreation, to grass, to trees, and to fish and wildlife production. In short, the forces of change that pushed these communities to the brink of disaster are being re-shaped to work for people — not against them. ——— Many communities are beginning to organize, to survey their resources, to draft plans for toe economic development o ftheir areas and to put these plans into action. Behind this upswing in rural America is a new program—rural area development. RAD represents a new approach to solving the programs of rural areas; it places the emphasis on people and their communities, rather than on commodities. First, local people organize and indicate their willingness to tot.. vest their energies. and initiative in overcoming the special problems that inhibit economic growing in their area. Then toe department of agriculture coordinates its financial and technical assistance programs with those of other federal state and local bodies to aid the local pepole in developing and improving their resource base. RAD PYRAMIDS BENEFITS: Rural area development projects have away of pyramiding benefits. In one community, toe department of agriculture helped the farm and townspeople to plan and carry out a small watershed project. This project served as a catalyst to set off a chain reaction that will benefit not only toe people within the watershed, but also those farms beyond it. The main purpose of this particular project was flood protection. But a better water supply was developed along with flood prevention. Three new industries have been opened in the community because of the dependable water supply and protection from floods. Roads have been protected and beautified by roadband erosion control work. Three new lakes provide recreational space for boating and wishing and there is also a 4-acre picnir area, the first in the com-

munity. DOES ADAMS COUNTY HAVE A NEED FOR RURAL AREA DEVELOPMENT: Any individual or group interested in the development of additional recreation facilities in the county should contact the county extension agent, the Farmers Home Administration, the soil conservation service or the ,ASCS county office. PRODUCER REFERENDUMS IN USE MANY YEARS: The year just ended saw farmers throughout the country vote in eight different referendums on marketing quotas for a particular crop. Seven of the eight votes were favorable, with the “yes” votes ranging from a low of 74.8 per cent to a high of 96 per cent of the growers voting. Only the wheat growers approved marketing quotas for the following crop by less than the two-thirds necessary to make the quotas effective; This marked the first time (in a total of 13 different wheat ballots) that wheat growers had turned down marketing quotas for their crop. By commodities, results of the marketing quota referendums show the following totals: Cigar binder tobacco (1963-65 crops), approved by 96 per cent of the 349 voters; cigar-filler and binder tobacco (1963-65 crops), approved by 89.6 per cent of the 3,401 voters; wheat (1964 crop), approved by 47.8 per cent of the 1,222,856 growers voting. . The referendum method of obtaining, direct from individual producers, an expression of their desire for or against the continuation of an adjustment measure is not a “Johnny-come-lately” program development. Farmers have been voting in quota referendums ever since marketing quotas were authorized early in 1938. But the method itself has been used since the early 1930’5. The first actual referendum of growers was that held in October 1934 on the question of a cornhog adjustment program in 1935. More than half a million signers of the 1934 AAA com-hog contract voted in this referendum. Os the number voting, more than two-thirds favored the adoption of the new program. On this mandate, the detailed program was formulated and the contracts offered to producers. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS NEW' WHEAT PROGRAM TO AID FARM INCOME: Quick enactment of a voluntary wheat program to avert a sizable drop in farm income has been recommended to secretary of agriculture Freeman by the U. S. department of agriculture’s advisory committee on feed grains and wheat. The recommended program would take the place of the mandatory wheat program rejected* by farmers in the national referendum last spring, and would preserve the basic program features of present law on a voluntary basis. By a wide majority, the committee favored financing the voluntary wheat program through a system of marketing certificates, rather than a system of compensatory payments. Under the certificate plan, returns to farmers

and cost of wheat foods to consumers would remain near re* cent levels. The committee also recommended that improvement in incomes of wheat and feed grain producers continue to be a goal of farm programs.. Committee discussions were generally within the three basic administration guidelines for farm legislation: To improve farm income, cut Government costs, and reduce commodity credit corporation stocks. WHO HOLDS THE FARM MORTGAGE DEBT? According to USDA’s farm mortgage for January 1 this year, farmers’ largest single source has been life insurance companies. The Federal Land banks held the second place share of total farm real estate debt, followed by all operating banks and the Farmers Home Administration. During the five-yfear period from 1958 to the present, total farm mortgage debt increased 48 per cenfl' From January 1,1962 to January 1, 1963, the increase was 10.6 per cent. HEAR THIS ON RADIO STATION WLW: A series, entitled “The river and the valley: future in our hands,” will be aired on Monday evenings at 9:30. starting January 13. The broadcasts will be of interest to many who are far from the actual Ohio river community. Those along the Kentucky river the Wabash, the Scioto, and those in all segments of WLW’s Voice, should find these programs stimulating and perhaps they can help in inspiring greater activity for projects in other communities. “The River and the Valley: Future - in Our Hands” will be broadcast each Monday night from 9:30 to 10:00 — January 13 through March 16, radio station WLW. THE SAFETY CORNER: Traffic signs and signals are designed and installed in strategic locations to help you drive and walk safely, but you must know? exactly what they mean. If you recognize the shapes of the traffic signs on Indiana streets and highways, you will always be warned of traffic dangers much farther ahead than you can se to read. Such a precaution is also applicable when the lettering on the signs is faced, or hidden by darkness, rain, snow, sleet or mud. Sign indentification by shape is a vital factor in the pert* sonal safety of drivers and pedestrians alike. .. In ..addition t 0... the., regulatory., traffic signs and signals which help you to drive and walk more safely, modern highways are well marked for the motorist’s convenience. The retangular - shaped signs placed along the highway inform 4he driver about traffic regulations. and provide other helpful information, i.e., city limits, mileage destination, rest stops, recreation areas etc. It is essential that each indi“vidual assume a personal respon- ’ sibility for his actions regarding case conduct on the streets or highways'. Traffic control can serve as “signs of life” to the obsservant driver or pedestrian. Conduct in traffic based on common sense will keep many people driving and walking safely, who might otherwise be dead. The driver who disregarded traffic signs, signals or pavement markings, expecting other drivers

SATURDAY, JANUARY M, MM

Two Vehicles Badly Damaged Last Night Two vehicles, one parked, were heavily damaged in an accident in the 200 block of S. First St., at 11:50 p. m. Friday. A car driven by Lloyd Vernon Baker. 64, of 521 S. 13th St., was traveling south on First street when it struck the left rear of the vehicle parked on the west side of the street. Baker said the lights of an oncoming vehicle obscured his vision. The Baker vehicle received an estimated 8200 damage while damage to the parked car was estimated at 8350. Owner of the parked auto was not known, as there was no license plate on the car.
