AAA PROGRAM BENEFITS FOR II'JNA CITED $60,000,000 Gain in State Farm Receipts Is Reported. BY T. R. JOHNSTON I)|***r. Fordo* University >** Bureau LAFAYETTE, L*d., Feb. 27 —Just what have the Agriculture Adjustment Administration crop control procram and other major enterprises of the recovery program meant to the 181 000 farmers of Indiana and to the various lines of business represented in the state? This question has been asked rather frequently and is being asked now as more than 40.000 farmers already have affixed their signatures to the 1935 corn-hog reduction program under the leadership of the AAA. The most outstanding single accomplishment has been to boost the annual cash receipts for Indiana farmers about $60,000,000 a year. In 1933. Indiana farmers produced products worth $149,000,000. including about $3,000,000 in rental or benefit payments, while in 1934 their rash receipts had jumped to $209,000,000, including upwards of $15,000.000 in rental or benefit payments for limiting production of wheat, corn and hogs and tobacco. Prices Have Advanced This increase in receipts does not necessarily mean that much more income although the prices of many of the principal farm products produced In the Hoosier state have advanced well toward parity, or the basis of fair purchasing power. However, this greater amount of money received for the raw products of the man on the land which actually represents so much new wealth, has meant a greater volume of business all down the line. The higher prices have meant the sale of more products, more business for the wholesaler and retailer. more work for the vast army in transportation—in short more work for every one as tne greater purchasing power of the Indiana farmer has given anew impetus to business in practically all parts of the state. Hogs are bringing 7 to 9 cents a pound, where a year or so ago 2 o. 3 cents was the common price. Com then was about 30 cents a bushel. Today it is 80 to 90. Oats have soared from 11 to 50 or 55 cents a bushel. These boosts and other price increases have combined to paint anew picture fr thousands of farmers not only in Indiana but throughout the Middle West Old Bills Paid Last autumn, in one Indiana county, when the com-hog reduction payment checks arrived from Washington, money went into circulation in the community on a scale not observed in several years. Merchants. professional men. bankers and others collected account* that had gone unpaid for many months and in some cases for many years, not because the debtors did not want to pay but simply because they did not have the ready cash with which to pay. All retail business felt the impetus. Many farmers used their money to bring the improvements around the farir. up to date; dressing up both land and buildings which had gone neglected for several years. Sales of fertilizer for wheat, fencing and paint jumped at once after the first checks arrived in the county. Paint Sales Heavy One hardware merchant said: “Paint seems to be what most of them want just now, but many are buying fencing and a good deal of it; machinery parts and small repairs like hinges, fasteners, nails

OPERATES ON HEART

g . JIB

An operation that may mark a great advance in man's fight to conquer angina pectoris was performed in a Cleveland TO.) hospital by Dr Claude S. Beck, above, the first time in history that surgery had been ventured for relief of the dread heart ailment. If the operation is finally successful. it will be as significant as would a cancer cute, physicians say.

and screws are moving faster than they have for a long time. “Most of our customers bought necessary equipment last summer on the strength of receiving their com-hog checks in the early fall, and the great majority of these men paid their bills in full when the first checks arrived.” In another general supply store, run by a co-operative organization the manager said: ‘‘The men who got their com-hog money went in strong for fertilizer and we sold more of it in three weeks until wheat seeding time than in any three months before.” Many Refrigerators Sold This was the story in practically every line of business. Several firms in one community reported the sale of a dozen electric refrigerators or stoves to farmer customers who were on new utility lines. One county treasurer reported that more than 200 farmers paid taxes that had been delinquent for several months. Furniture dealers, clothiers. department stores—all reported that farmers were buying, the sarr" as other groups bought, when they had the money. These few r facts are given as definite examples of reevoery. They were picked up in a dozen or more communities of the state and the same story could be dug out by a newspaper man in any farm community. Farm Sales Trebled Farm folks, aided by the benefit payments, have realized, however, their big gain in income by the increase in the market prices of their products. All other lines of business generally have come to realize that the buying power of the basic industry must be restored before permanent prosperity can be attained. This recovery is being brought about gradually, most farm folks realize. Gradually, other lines of business are feeling this changed situation. Farmers, who have seen their land values shrinking since 1921, are observing the pendulum swinging the other way, with farm sales trebling the last half of 1934 over the same period of 1933, and prices higher. In short, those who are watching the rapidly changing picture feel that better days not only are here but they are moving rapidly in the right direction.

CROSS-COUNTRY 6-HOUR FLIGHTS POSSIBLE SOON U. S. to Help Airlines to Start Stratosphere Service. By Unitril Frt*t WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.—The Federal government is preparing to assist commercial airlines in establishing six-hour transcontinenta. passenger service through the substratosphere within the next three years, it was learned today. Preliminary steps are under way with experiments in radio blind landing equipment, which, if successful, will be applied to all air ports. Bureau of Air Commerce officials said it was almost certain “substratosphere services will be opened within the next two or three years” with regular transcontinental service of from five to seven hours. Experiments of Wiley Post, w T ho is planning a high altitude flight from Los Angeles to New York in seven hours, are being watched closely. Bureau officials said they regarded Post's chances of success as “excellent.” They said the flight should encourage establishment of regular high altitude long distance services. Officials expect the Federal government will have to work out its air policy program definitely before great progress can be made. “Until transport lines can be guaranteed sufficient profits, there is little incentive to undertake costly experiments in high altitude flying," an official said. Principal obstacles, a spokesman said, include developing a supercharged motor capable of flying at

PICTURE BOUGHT FOR SIX CENTS PROVES TO BE OLD MASTERPIECE

By United Prett MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 27. Traveling in England last year, Prof, and Mrs. Edwin Ford of the University of Minnesota purchased, for 6 cents, a small, dusty picture at a London auction. When they returned home they cleaned the picture and found the inscription: Presented to Lady Critchton by Sir William Beechey, 1823.” They sent a description to Henry Huntington, of San Marino, Cal., an authority on 19th Century art. He advised them today that “your inscription establishes Beechey’s authorship beyond a reasonable doubt.” Beechey’s full size portraits draw a current price of approximately SIO,OOO, Ford was told. from 30.000 to 35,000 feet instead of the present 12,000 to 15,000 feet. Altitude pressure effects on passengers must be eliminated, experts agreed. Bureau Director Eugene L. Vidal, his assistant, Rex Martin, and Rudolph Schroeder, chief of the bureau’s airline inspection service, are studying stratosphere flights carefully. Bureau officials attach importance to the blind landing experiments because substratospere fliers often ■would be unable to land after descending from high clear altitudes to find unfavorable weather close to the ground. The midcontinental airway between Los Angeles and New York was selected for installation of test equipment.

The school will be conducted from 1:30 to 5 each afternoon from March 4 to April 4 as a civic enterprise to reduce the shocking number of hunting accidents through scientific, accurate training. Charles E. Adams, who numbers among his pupils Mrs. Hathaway Simmons, holder of three shooting titles, and Thomas D. Stevenson, one of the foremost skeet shooters Overcame Her Nervousness “A few years ago,” writes Mrs. Charles Sivil, of Hartshorne, Okla., “I was weak and run-down. It seemed that nervousness was about to geo the best of me. My mother told me about Cardui and that is what I decided to take. After I began taking Cardui, my appetite was better. I gained strength and was less nervous. By the time I had taken two bottles, I felt fine.” First, better appetite, and then more strength and a feeling of wellbeing! Thousands of women testify Cardui benefited them. If it does not benefit YOU, consult a physician.—Advertisement.
