He remarked that the pending bill, considered with a $12,550,000,000 Army bill last week, brought cash appropriations and contract authority up to about $39,000,000,000. Something had to be done at once, he declared, about enacting new taxes. Senator La Follette pointed out that the total of the Navy bill exceeded the national debt at the close of the last war.

Better Feeding And Milking Of Michigan Cows Urged EAST LANSING, Feb. 3 3 )The 27th annual farmers' week swing into full stride here today after an opening session in which daily experts urged better feeding and milking of Michigan cow herds to meet war production goals. Indicative of the major events, the program's second session was listed as livestock and sugar beet day and was to be climaxed by an evening appearance by Leo V.

Card, state commissioner of agriculture. The current sugar shortage was scheduled for discussion by B. H. Benidt, head of the. U.

S. Department of Agriculture's sugar beet while technical- problems in sugar beet planting were to be aired by H. H. Musselman of the college agricultural engineering department and H. C.

Rather, head of the farm crops division. A. C. Baltzer. college extension specialist in dairy husbandry, yesterday advised state dairymen to "shoot increase of 10 per cent oyer 1941 production to assure an per cent increase sought by the federal government.

He said Michigan's 950,000 cows must produce an average of 520 pounds of milk per animal more than the 5,200 pounds averaged last year. To do this, he declared, each cow will require 1,000 pounds additional hay and 500 pounds more of cereal grains. Effort To Be Repaid extra effort, despite the fact dairy product prices have advanced only a few cents in the past three years." A current lack of moisture throughout the state, he said, probably would retard spring pasture growth and, he recommended that dairymen hold back cows from but- side feeding for at least 10 days or two weeks. Importance of proper milking technique was stressed by Prof. W.

E. Peterson of the University of Minnesota, who warned that "atmosphere" was a vital factor in obtaining full production. Rattling of milk pails or other dairy barn equipment tends to stimulate a cow to "let down milk," Peterson said, addingethat milking of the average cow should be completed "within seven minutes after encouraging stimulus is given." He said cows must be milked regularly and that "the generosity of the cow often depends upon the personality of the milker." Earl R. French of New York City, national marketing director of the Atlantic and Pacific Tea told members of the Michigan Allied Poultry Industries that extensive use of direct marketing methods could save producers and consumers of Michigan fresh fruits and vegetables between 510,000,000 and 520,000,000 annually. He said Michigan consumers spend approximately $133,000,000 a year for homegrown fruits and vegetables, but Baltzer said he felt certain costs of distribution absorb dairymen would be "repaid for sorts S10.50igil4.00.

President Roosevelt was critical of the clause, but signed the bill into law and yesterday formally nominated Henderson as administrator.

Some farm state lawmakers were outspoken in their objections 1o holding farm prices below 110 per cent of parity. Senator Thomas (D-Okla) suggested that the farm bloc undertake to whittle down future Agricultural Department appropriations, specifically for subsidy payments, and thus force a reduction in the Department's personnel. A statement by Henderson and Wiekard explaining their stand said in part: "We must have abundant production, and the Department of Agriculture intends to see that every possible step is taken to insure abundant for all. This has been and remain the consumers' best assurance of fair prices. "The farm legislation and the farm production goals for 1942 have now placed floors under the farm prices of all major products at levels sufficient to protect farmers in carrying out a great increase in production.

Expect Sea Thrusts The general view in military quarters, however, was that the Japanese would take the risk of trying to reduce the fortress for reasons of prestige and it was believed that the first thrusts by sea or air would come at any hour. This belief was strengthened by a sudden increase in Japanese bombing attacks yesterday, apparently aimed at knocking out airdromes on the island and thus gaining control of the skies.

Observers acknowledged that aerial supremacy probably would be a major factor in the battle of Singapore but they pointed out that if the work is done through the audits by the regular staff that we should transfer part of the fund at least to he department, to compensate us for that, work."
