Recent historic developments demonstrate that in this determination they have the aid and support of Democrats now in revolt against playing the role of being rubber stamps to the executive branch of the government. Republican party leaders, furthermore, have a_ positive and constructive program as they make progress inre-establishing the prestige of congress as a coordinate branch of the government. In a Lincoln Day address Congressman Joseph W. Martin of Massachusetts, able leader of the Republican minority in the House of Representatives, outlined the following Republican objectives: (1) Winning the war; (2) Defénd the Constitution; (3) Eliminate waste and. extravagance in expenditures; (4) Simplification of tax returns; (5) Tax reform based on capacity to pay; (6) Plan for return of men and women from fighting fronts to real jobs—not doles or handouts; (7) Care: for disabled veterans, rehabilitation for the maimed and restoration of lost educational opportunties; (8) Maintenance of private enterprise; (9) Return of power from bureaucrats to the people; (10): Guard against increasing regimentation; (11) Better care of aged; (12) End of class prejudices. and preferences and cleavage to American ideals and American institutions.—Contributed. SPEAKING OF BILLIONS In these days of billions, instead of millions, how many -of us really appreciate just how much a billion dollars is? To the average person it’s just an awful lot of money. Statisticians have figured out, however, that if a person born at the time of Christ had been given a billion dollars to spend at the rate of $1,000 a day and could live until his {money was gone, he would still have about 800 years to go: By now he would just about. have finished spending his first seven hundred million dollars! Read that last paragraph again; then reflect soberly on this astounding fact: During 1943 federal expenditures totaltley 88 billion dollars, or approximately 241 million dollars every 24 hours. Do you envy the members of the appropriation commitI who are now holding hearings on the one hundred billion dollar federal budget for the next fiscal year? —Contributed.

FARM WAGE RATE BERKELEY, March 13.—Continuance of the dairy feed adjustment payment was announced this morning by the War Food Administration, according to telegraphic advice received by Dave Davidson, chairman of the California State AAA Committee. “Febriary_adjustment payment rates continue \at 50 cents per ewt. of fluid nih 6 cents per . pound of butterfat, jas announced on , February 2,’ Davidson said. “‘The March and April rates show a sharp increase to 8 cents per pound for ibutterfat deliveries in all counties in California, and 70 cents per cwt. for fluid’ milk deliveries in eight 60 cents per cwt, fluid milk in all other California counties. “Payments will be made through County AAA offices as in the past. Payments for February will be made during the latter part of March, as soon as date from milk receivers concerning deliveries can be made available. Increasing production costs primarily feed. Davidson declared, have threatened dairy ‘production within the state and the adjustment Payment is aimed at relieving the squeeze on the dairyman thus caught between rising costs and a_ fixed ceiling for his product.
