return to the throne. No date has been announced for referendum. Reliable sources have predicted it will be held March 19. 40 Persons Attend Third Soil Class Some 40 persons Tuesday attended the third and final session of the west Pottawattamie soil conservation school at the farm bureau here. Harold Jensen of the farm management and economics department at Iowa State college.

Ames, spoke. "Does Conservation Farming Paj" was the title of Jensen's talk. Verle Arnold, farm planner with the soils conversation service in Council Bluffs, talked on a i planning. Farmers were scheduled to set a date on which they plan to tour various conservation prac- projects in this area. The Under the present program, the department sets fixed price sup ports expressed in terms of bushels.

The support rates re mam unchanged regardless o' the size of the crop. The new plan, advanced by a a Koenig, assistant to the secretary of agriculture, would work about like this: The department would an nounce a potato production goal for this year is about bushels, or about 66 000,000 bushels less tnan were grown last year. It also would announce a rate at which it would support prices if prorluc- tion equalled goal. production Suppose, for example, that the rate were set at SI a bushel. A wop of 335,000,000 bushels- the government's goal-- would assure growers a total return of 5335,000.000.

Reduce The Etrte SUppose Showers produced bushels, or 50000000 more a the goal. The department would reduce the support rate below SI a bushel in an amount which assure growers only the goal for the whole crop. This plan would allow, in times of overproduction, prices to drop to a a levels, with consumers getting benefit of lower Jrices. Advocates say the plan would liscourage i because growers would know ahead of planting time that i hey overproduced they selves drive down their own prices. his regular scout night and he didn't know where to find a loca troop meeting.

Then his thorough knowledg' of the rules of scouting saved the day. A scout in a strange town gets credit for attendance by re porting at the police station ne recalled. Darrell hastened to see Police Montgomery. His record maintained intact. Member of T.

J. Troop Actually, the youth wasn't in a "strange" city. He lived here and belonged to troop 2, sponsored bj Thomas Jefferson high school before moving to Nebraska While in Falls City, he was a member of troop 391. Returning to Council Bluffs, the lad joined troop 10 of the First Baptist church and became junior assistant scoutmaster. Later he was graduated from scouting and turned to Explorer scouting.

He is now senior crew leader of post 24, sponsored by the Moose. It is the first group of Explorers organized here. Post advisor is George P. Hays, 329 Scott street. "Darrell is the first scout I've ever known to finish five perfect years of attendance," he declared.

"It's really quite a record." Darrell, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd H. Heath, 102 East Graham avenue, has been in scouting six years. He is proud of his 35 merit badges and his rank of life scout.

His perfect attendance pin now needs an extra silver star. tice S. W. Iowa Deaths Mrs. Annis Wilcox ATLANTIC Funeral services for Mrs.
