Students To Have All the Milk They Can Drink Consumption by Indiana school children of as much milk as they can drink at a cost of two cents per half pint or even less is provided for in an agreement signed here today by Wilbur Young. State Superintendent of Public Instruction. and Earl Butz. Assistant Secretary of Agriculture. The purpose of the program. Young .explained, is two-fold. First, it will supply nutritious and palatable fresh Grade A milk to Indiana school children at a very nomina cost. Second, it will attack the problem of dairy surpluses at the source. Until the school milk program was altered by the 1954 United States Congress at the request of President Eisenhower, school children had been receiving powdered milk food as a part of the school lunch program. The new agriculture act is intended to provide the fresh milk to the pupils without the necessity of processing it. Indiana is one of the first states to take advantage of the new act. which was signed by the President on August 28. Dr. Butz, a former Purdue University agriculture expert, recently joined the United States Department of Agriculture. Under the new setup, an Indiana school child can drink as much as a quart of fresh milk each day for less than a dime. Young said. Thus more than a million and a half gallons of this milk will be consumed during school hours by Indiana school children during the precent year, with resultant nutold benefit for the children. Indiana faria leaders have hailed the program as the first realistic and economic step toward handling the milk surplus which has resulted from present-day efficient management of Hoosier farms. Young urged Indiana educators to avail themselves immediately of the program, details of which are now ready at his office. The program will be in operation in hundreds of Indiana schools shortly after October 1. Young is enthusiastic about the program also because it makes Indiana produced milk available to Indiana children, instead of it being diverted into American handouts to foriegn nations. The program is entirely voluntary, but most schools and most parents are expected, to avail themselves of the opportunity of getting this food at the schools each day. \ Mr. arid Mrt.

- House Majority Leader Charles Abraham Halleck had his sights set on becoming President of the United States when he was a sophomore at Indiana University, according to the current (October 9th) issue of The Saturday Evening Post. In an article entitled “He Rides Herd on Congress.” author Hugh Morrow comments that seldom has a sophomore's yearnings survived more subsequent vicissitudes or had more impact upon the affairs of the nation. “Through twenty years in the House of Representatives, from the lonely days when he was the only Indiana Republican in Congress to the present estimate of White House aides that ‘if anybody has taken Bob Taffs place, its Charlie,’ the tirelessly aspirin' Mr. Halleck has surmounted one political disaster after another until he sits in the inner circle closest to the seat of presidential power,” Morrow writes. “While the odds against his ever achieving the presidency himself may be considerable. Halleck is just as immune to distraction from his goal as he was in 1920.” The fact that Halleck is as ambitious at fifty-four as he was at the age of twenty is a key to President Eisenhower's recent sue- ' cess in getting most of his legisla- ! tive program through the EightyI third Congress — the Congress» whose record meets its crucial test at the hands of the voters on November 2nd, the article states. Rep. Halleck will speak at Greensburg. Ind., in the home ! District of Rep. Ralph Harvey . Thurs.. Oct. 7. and at Wabash College. Crawfordsville, in the District represented by Congresswoman Cecil Harden. Wed., Oct. 13. The following Monday, Halleck will speak in the North District of Virginia for Rep. William C. I Wampler and at rallies in Char-' lotte and Statesville, N. C., the next day as the guest of Rep. Charles R. Jonas. Rep. Halleck will return to Indiana for an Oct. 20 meeting at Bedford on behalf of Rep. Earl Wilson. His last scheduled speech will be a talk on government before students of St. Joseph's Col lege at Rensslaer the afternoon of Election Day* Nov. 2. IndiMAHeHi laiurMteo Firm Offers “Uli-Free" Reduced Auto Rites A unique system of basing auto insurance rates on the motorists' driving record has. been announced by Meridian Mutual Insurance Company. Indianapolis. The “safe driving discount plan” allows a sliding scale of premium discounts starting with one year of accident-free driving. The discount plan, just approved by Indiana Insurance Commissioner Harry E. Wells, is described by Carl M. Russell, president. as the only one of its kind being offered by Indiana risk firms. Applicants who have not had a claim paid by any insurance company for one year receive a Sridiscount on their auto premium. If “loss-free” for two years there's a 10% discount, and if there has been on payment for three years a 15 % discount is given. Says Russell: “We think our new safe driving discount plan gives a sensible answer to the question: Why do I have to pay the same as the bad driver for my automobie insurance?’ ” spent the weekend in his cottage*, Jerry Cook and hsi grandmother spent the weekend in their cottage.

There were 15 bidders for the Says Turnpike Will Bring "New Payroll Industries Indianapolis, Ind., September 16 —How would you like for a new $20,000,000 industry to move into your home county and eventually establish a SIO,OOO to $15,000 annual payroll? “You’d be fighting for it and that’s exactly what the proposed North-South Toll Ros.d would offer for the nine counties it would traverse in Northern Indiana.” Albert J. Wedeking, executive director of the Indiana Toll Road Commission. told the Caravan Club atits weekly luncheon in the Murat I Temple today. Wedeking noted that toll road critics in Indiana are attempting to slam the door shut on industry that can put scores cf Hoosiers to work on a permanent; basis. “We ought to recofimize the business potential that toll road construction and operation can bring to our state,” he asserted. The Hoosier toll road official then related how certain commercial interests in Pennsylvania have openly endorsed the Pennsylvania Turnpike as a business builder. Wedeking quoted; extensively from a letter received from Zimmerman which lauced toll roads in general and the Pennsylvania Turnpike in particular. Zimmerman told of how his motel facilities have grown from a 20unlt operation near Somerset interchange on the Turnpike in 1938 to 90 and 60-unit motels near Harrisburg, concluding that “this could not have been possible if it had not been for the traffic on the turnpike.” Friendship cannot exist except among good men. —Cicero I Call Fred's Electric I FOR EXPERT HADIO and i I APPLIANCE REPAIR I 404 Boston Phone 256-J I General House Wiring I AIR-WAY Sales & Service I
