Agriculture
•M
Legislation
By WRIGHT PATMAN
Congressman First District
to believe that all measures
passed by this Congress will be
sympathetically administered.
More than a breathing spell
is in store for farm and home
owners if proposals now pend-
ing and expected to be intro-
duced in Congress become law.
The chances are good.
Farm Mortgage Bill
The House has passed a
which will grant considerable
relief to the owners of mort-
gaged farms. It will permit a
Federal agency to make a sub-
stantial payment on the princi-
pal of the debt provided it is
scaled down and the interest
rate is reduced; a moratorium
will be granted from 2 to 5
years and sufficient money fur-
nished to pay taxes if the se-
curity is adequate; Farm Land
Banks will resume making
loans and if the local associa-
tion cannot accept applications,
or where there is no local asso-
ciation, the loans will be made
direct; the farmer who has lost
his farm home by foreclosure
or otherwise within two years
may be furnished capital to
deem or repurchase it.
The bill contains another fea-
ture that I am ‘very much in-
terested in, that is direct cred-
its to farmers upon first or sec-
ond mortgages. Many banks
have enjoyed and profited by
the use of the Government’s'
credit since the Government
was founded but it is the first
time the principle has been in-
voked for the farmers. High
interest rates have long been
the curse of agriculture. The
bill provides that the Govern-
ment may refinance the per-
sonal secured and unsecured in-
debtedness of all farmers up to
75% of the fair value of their
property; this will help the
tenants as well as the proper-
ty owners. The principal of the
debt is to be scaled, down and
Some small measure of bene-
fit would come to the farmers
of every community if more
people knew how simple the
home making of dill pickles and
sauer kraut really is. While
you can buy both of these
things either in cans or in
bulk at a very reasonable cost,
the commercial products are
not nearly so good as the home-
made article. One of the rea-
sons for this is that the manu-
facturer must put in some form
of preservative in order to
keep it until it is sold. The
home made product is so much
better that there is no need to
try to preserve it for very long.
The making of dill pickles
and sauer kraut is a ferment-
ing process.
A bushel df cucumbers can
be had at the market for $1.00.
A sufficient quantity of green
dill costs ten cents. Wash the
cucumbers and pack in a .ten
gallon oak keg or a crock, with
dill between- the layers,
a few
grape
pounds
water,
cumbers with
heavy rock and pour in the
brine, filling up the container
with cold water. Cover with
a tea towel. Place keg or jar
in a cool place and the pickles
will be ready in 18 to 20 days.
They will keep under the brine
for about six weeks.
Thirty heads of cabbage will
make 10 gallons of sauer-kraut.
Shred the cabbage and mix in
five pounds of salt. Pack down
with a weight in a keg or
crock. Cover with a cloth and
let stand fo£ two weeks. The
brine iwill form from the water
in the cabbage and will cover
the kraut if well weighted.
Kraut will keep 90 days under
the brine—but usually ten gal-
lons does not last that long if
you have a German friend or
two. Raw kraut is especially
healthful—ask your doctor.—

of power for the Executive to ■

In Prospeet—Minimum work j
hours and wage law, a grant I
of power to the Executive to j
deal with the war debts during ;
the recess of Congress, a bill
to regulate and expand private
industry and a bill to expand
currency and credit.
Administration
The success of any measure,
is dependent upon its adminis-1
tration. We have every reason j
atorium is to be granted in
emergency cases. The bill is
backed by the. administration
and will doubtless become a
law within 30 days.
Inflation
Business leaders and Mem-
bers of Congress are rapidly
coming to the conclusion that
there will be no prosperity in
this country unless there is ex-
pansion of the currency. I pre-
dict that some sort^gf an in-
flation measure willpJSS* Con-
gress before the Special Ses-
sion adjourns. It will either
take the form of issuing mon-
ey, like the two billion dollars
recently printed for the Fed-
eral Reserve Banks, devaluing
the gold dollar and issuing
more currency on gold or by
remonetizing silver. It makes
no difference to me how it is
done and for what purpose it
is—expended so long as it
reaches every section of the
nation and increases the buying
power of the farmers and wage
earners. The people in the city
must realize that they cannot
be prosperous unless the farm-
ers are prosperous.
Status of Legislation
Adopted by Congress—Emer-
gency banking relief, economy
cuts, reforestation program and
the beer bill.
Pending in Congress—Farm
and home mortgage refinanc-
ing, the farm relief bill which
has been amended to guarantee
the farmer cost of production
plus a reasonable profit, the
$500,000,000 dole, the Tennes-|
see Valley development and the
arms embargo.

ing Friday afternoon- in the
home of Mrs. Baughn.
For entertainment of mem-

the interest rate reduced. The
Government will then loan the
farmer sufficient money at 5%
interest for working capital,
subject to the above limitation.
This is a long step in the right
direction for the farmers. It
will save them if the currency
is expanded so they can sell
what they produce for a fair
price.
This bill is in the Senate and
will likely become a law as it
is a part of the administra-
tion’s program.
Small Home Owners to
be Helped
Congress is now considering
a bill designed to save from
.foreclosure the homes under
the value of $10,000 in the
towns and cities. It is propos-
ed that such encumbered homes
may be refinanced by a Federal /
agency and money advanced to ♦
pay taxes, assessments, and ♦
provide for necessary mainten- Z
ance and repairs up to 80'/ of i
the value of the property. The ♦
mortgages are to be scaled Z
down in accordance with pres-k’
ent values, the interest rate re- <>
duced to 5% and a 3-year mor- o

Austin.—The Legislature is
flow in the fourth month of its
regular session. Under the con-
stitution the $10 per day com-
pensation lasts 120 days. Ex-
tension of the session beyond
this period is possible, but the
nay of members will be reduced
by half. It is not likely that
the session will be prolonged
jnuch beyond May 9 when the
four-months -period of high
pay ends, though some mem-
bers believe it will last until
the latter part of May. There
is strong sentiment among
many leaders to bring the ses-
sion to a close as early as pos-
sible, due chiefly |o the fact
that there seems to be an al-
most hopeless lack of harmony
on many important subjects
with little prospect of compos-
ing these differences.

school funds by about 135,000
and would result in savings to
the schools estimated at up-
wards of $2,000,000, depending
on the amount of the State
aportionment. This would be
in addition to savings in local
funds through the resultant
decrease in school enrollment.
The measure is House bill No.
243. •-
The constitutional amend-
ment limiting total State ex-
penditures to $22.50 per capita
per biennium, already approved
by the Senate, has been report*
ed favorably in the House. This
is a very important measure.
If approved, it would be impos-
sible for the Legislature, to
continue increasing State ex-
penditures. The authority of
the Legislature to increase ap-
propriations is limited only by
the ability to find sources of
taxation. • The amendment
would provide an absolute limit,
where there is now virtually
none. >

The income tax bill follows
many provisions of the Federal
Income tax. As amended it
exempts $2,500 of the income
of-married persons and permits
an exemption of $500 for each
dependent. The rates graduate
from one per cent on the first
<1,000 of net income for indi-
viduals to seven per cent on in-
comes in excess of $11,000. The
corporation rate is from two
per cent on the first $1,000 to
six per cent on incomes in ex-
cess of $6,000. Passage by the
Senate is regarded as doubtful.
' The Senate has passed the
four major appropriation bills.
Th< House has passed three
and is yet to act on the edu-
cational appropriations. The
judiciary appropriation bill has
passed both branches of the
Legislature and has been sign-
ed by the Governor.' The elee-
mosynary and departmental
bills are in the hands of free
conference committees to ad-
just differences between House
and Senate measures. The ap-
propriation bills call for reduc-
tions from 25 to 35 per cent
below figures of the past two
years.

are oh the job and will not quit
until adjournment is taken.
The general economy pro-
gram depends upon what is
done within the last few weeks
of the session. With a weary
legislature, anxious to finish its
work and go home, some meas-
ures may win approval that
earlier in the - session would
- have had no chance of adopt-
ion. Those citizens who wish
to obtain substantial reductions
in their tax bill would do well
to watch the proceedings close-
ly and not hesitate to let their
representatives know their
wishes. A good start has been
made in the direction of econo-
my, but this can be quickly off-
set in a last-minute stampede.
If this doesn’t come it will not
be due to lack of effort on the
part of tax consumers. They
Up to this time, efforts to
levy new taxes have failed,
with the single exception of an
Income tax, which has House
approval. But there will be a
determined effort during the
closing days of the session to
revive the sales tax, .principal-
4 jy 4>n the plea that it is neces-
sary to keep public schools
open. Laws strengthening en-
forcement of the cigarette tax
and gross production are ex-
pected to stop leaks that caus-
ed a loss of $5,000,000 last
year. There is also a possibil-
ity that all of the cigarette tax
will be diverted to the school
fund. Many observers contend
that stoppage of leaks and rea-
sonable reorganization of the
school system in the interest
of economy make any new tax
unnecessary.
