Tax BUI: The President’s
Bill corned from the House Ways
and Means Committee in modified
form this week. The stated pur-
pose of the bill is to stimulate the
economy through greater tax bene-
fits for industrial expansion.
Judging from the disappointing
figures released for expected busi
ness expansion outlays in the year,
this stimulation is badly needed.
The controversy in the matter
comes from the fact that the tax
benefits to industry would cost the
'S. income approximately 1.5
2.5 bUlion dollars. The adminis-
tration proposes to make up this
loss by plugging tax "loopholes”.
▲ great many people have writ-
ten me urging that I vote against
particular items in the bill. Bank-
ers are agsinst the new bank tax
provisions,’saving and loan people

It appears, however, that the bill

under a “closed rule” that will al-
low no amendments from the
House floor. Therefore, I will not
be able to he selective in my vot-
ing.
In this sort of case, a Congress-
man can only weigh the individual
appeals against the overall advan
tages and disadvantges for his
home district and the nation as
whole. When the final form of the
bill is disclosed, I will have but one
choice: between “Yes” and “No”
If, for Instance, I find seventy per-
cent of the bill good for the coun-
try and our district, and thirty per-
cent bad, I will vote for the hill.
The record will say I’m a hundred
percent for It, but that’s the
weight of responsibility I gladly
bear.

bill, that of Increasing U. S. trade
abroad gaining, the ensuing eco-
nomic and political advantages.
This action will have enormous ef-
fect on millions of people directly
involved with foreign trade, and
every one of us will be Indirectly
affected. My duty as your Con-
gressman Is to insure that the eco-
nomy of, the country prospers, but
at the same time that the people
of our district are not hurt. The
progress of this bill Is something
we will all watch with great inter-
est.
In The Interest Of The District:
I was pleased to report to Dr. R. C.
Rowell that the Department of
Health, Education and Welfare
granted approval of construction
funds for a Rehabilitation Center
at Terrell State Hospital in Terrell.
The costs is $346,000 for the im-
provement. The federal share,
which is in the form of a grant,
is $66,000.
Important Legislation: The House
passed the 1962 Amendments to
the Public Welfare Act. The new
bill has some very fine points. New
restrictions on "spongers” will end
many of the abuses of the welfare
program. Money saved in this way
will be channeled to the truly de-
serving and needy. Through match-
ing state, and federal funds, aged,
blind, and disabled people will be
eligible for a five dbllar increase
in compensation. The states gain
control of the new procedures. The
overall goal of the bill Is to get
people off relief and back to pro- before
ductive work.

Her winter weeds from stealing
part of the fertilizer. The pasture
should also be top dressed in mid
summer with nitrogen for maxi-
mum production.
Fertilized grass is healthier and
makes more economical use of the
food nutrients and water available
to it. A pasture that Is properly
fertilized needs only half the a-
mount of water required by an un-
fertilized pasture to produce a
hundred pounds of forage.
Besides fertilizing, a pasture
needs a good weed control and pro-
per use program. Common Ber-
muda should be grazed no closer
than four Inches. Weeds should be
mowed no closer than four inches
they go into the bloom
stage. Coastal Bermuda should be
grazed no closer than six inches.
The kind of fertilizer needed on
a pasture depends on the kind of
soil. The kind of fertilizer needed
can be determined, but a bolls an-
alysis should be made to determine
the amount of each needed for an
economical farm operation.
In general, the blackland area
needs nitrogen and phosphorous
applied at the rate of 32-40-0 per
acre In early spring and top dress-
ed with 83-0-0 per acre In mid
summer when moisture is ade-
quate. The sandy soils in this area
need nitrogen, jhoe|»horous and pot-
ash applied at the rate of 300
pounds of 10-20-10 per acre In
early spring.
The tame . pastures most com-
monly found in Fannin County in
fwmrpnri and coastal Bermuda,
King Ranch bluestem, fescue, etc
give a profitable return for the fer-
tilizer applied. Native grass pas-
tures such as little bluestem, big
bluestem, Indiangraee, ride oats
grass, etc., have not shown enough
return from fertilizer to warrant
fertilizing.

tilizing pastures or any conserva-
tion problem, contact your local
