STATES’ RIGHTS ISSUE PUSHED
Governors Seeking to Regain Powers; Can't Agree on Formula. - (Another Stokes Story, Page 10)
By THOMAS L. STOKES Times Special Writer ] CHICAGO, April 5.—A hard road lies ahead for states that hope to recover some of the power and prestige they have losf to Washington. This stands out plainly from the two-day Midwestern conference of the council of state governments. Here in this area, now predominantly Republican, the current states’-rights rebellion got its start, and here it exhibits its greatest vigor. Determination was evident among officials of 17 states, including nine governors, ‘present at the conference. But some confusion and uncertainty were also apparent as they considered ways and means of shaking off the confrols fastened upon them by Washington in recent years and intensified by the necessities of war. Suggestions were plentiful for ways in which the states might assert themselves in post-war reconstruction. Several states already have set up planning commissions to help in industrial conversion to peacetime uses. Steps have been taken to create reserves for aid to returning soldiers, for education, for public ‘works. All Must Co-operate
But the conference produced no pat over-all formula for general application. No accord was reached on a delimiting of the respective fields for federal and state action. Governor Dwight H. Green of

The conference took the usual course in such cases. It authorized Governor ‘Green to appoint a committee of five to co-operate with similar committees to be delegated later by other regional conferences in New York, Atlanta, Denver and San Francisco, in drafting a program for state participation to be submitted to state legislatures. Governor John W. Bricker of Ohio, a 1944 Republican presiden-
man of the Midwest committee, made it plain that he does not believe post-war unemployment will be as bad as some fear, and that he relies upon industry rather than the federal government to do the
job.

, The Bermuda onions are large sweet onions that wiil store easily for winter's use. They will mature in late summer.
Parsnips may be left in the ground all winter and dug as needed. Some people think the flavor is improved by freezing.
These are cool weather crops and will not be good after the hot summer days come; :
The small vegetable seeds are planted shallow and if the seed bed is cloddy, they may not get suffiicent moisture to germinate.
Sweet potato plants are easy to grow. Select the variety you'like and cover the seeds with two inches of sand.
At this time, be especially on the lookout for cutworms, New gardens planted on old sod turned under may be easily attacked. by these pests. A mixture of paris green, bran and molasses will take care of them in short order. 4

DRAFT T REDUCED)
14 Per Cent Cut Will Not Affect Those Who Have Received Orders.
Indiana’s April draft quota has been cut approximately 14 per cent,
_ |but this reduction will not affect
those men who already have received orders to report for induction this month, state draft officials said ‘today. The reduction order came after the quotas for local boards for the early part of the month already had been set and after several boards already had sent men for induction. | So the reduction will be made in the quotas for those boards scheduled to send men late in the month and those which already have sent or are scheduled to send men will get their proportionate share of the Teduetion next month, state officials sa. No reason for the quota reduction was given but it was believed that it was a step in the nation-wide level-»|ing-off process preliminary to the calling of fathers in June or July. Col. Robinson Hitchcock, state draft head, is in Washington this week attending a national conference of selective service directors £t which plans for the drafting of fathers are to be formulated.
38-44 Group Told To ‘Work or Fight’
WASHINGTON, April 5 (U. P). —By May 1 draft registrants in the 38-through-44 age group who now are in nondeferrable occupations must have taken steps to get into essential work or be eonsidered subject to induction. The new rule affecting men in the so-called “overage” group was announced by Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, director of selective service, in a communication to local draft boards Saturday night.” Men 38 to 45 are not now being inducted regardless of their deferment status. Hershey’s announcement placed the older men in the same “work or fight” category with’ men 18 through 37, who had been warned to get out of nondeferrable occupations by April 1. Each group, however, was granted a 30-day grace period after the deadline in which to move into new jobs provided that, in the meantime, they had applied to the U. S. employment service for transfers to essential work and had so notified their local draft boards. Hershey’s order also applies to 4F’s—men deferred for physical reasons.

WARNS OF PERIL TO COUNTY ROAD SETUP
Marion county’s road building program for 1943 will collapse as a result of the big reduction in
gasoline tax distribution, William|-
Bosson, president of the county commissioners, said today. Commissioners pointed out that they had set up a budget of $420,000 for this year’s road maintenance work, but* that the new distribution figures announced last week by State Auditor Richard James would allow Marion county only $280,000. “Roads have been breaking down faster than usual this year because of heavy war plant truck traffic and army transportation,” Commissioner William Ayres declared. “It is doubtful if we will be able {0 even make some of the emergency repairs to keep roads passable, aot to mention any new roads. We will not be able to build a single mile of black top.” -
