At a meeting of the County Pe
troleum Industries Committee
held Tuesday night, July 15 at 8
p. m. in the Chamber of Com-=-
rerce, the following officers were
e'ected: R. L. Getzen, chairman;
A. W. Harris and Harry D. Wade,
vice chairmen, and Garland F.
ITnlme, secyetary.
The group endorsed a six-point
program of objectives, which was
o’lered by the Georgia Petroleum
Industries Committee with which
the iocal group is affiliated.
The meeting was addressed’ by
Meil W. Printup of Atlanta, Exe
cutive Secretary of the Georgia
Petroleum Industries Committee.
Fe stressed the vital importance
of concerted action for the suc
ca2ssful operation -of the county
group. o
Mr. Printup pointed out that
Georgia it now collecting at the
rate of 58 million dollars annually
irom the state gasoline tax of 6
cents per gallon. “On every gallon
of gasoline the consumer pays a
State motor fuel tax of 6c, plus a
Federal gasoline tax of 2 cents;
plus a 3 per cent state sales tax
which amounts to about 0.7 cents
per gallon, or a total of 8.7 cents
per gallon,” he stated. * :
“Twenty-one states now protect
their highway tax funds by con
stitutional provisions which re
quire that revenue from motor
tuel taxes and motor vehicle li
cense fees @ used for ‘highway
purposes. Those states have been
roads.. -
“If the revenue from the spe
cial state tax on gasoline is not to
be used for highway purposes, the
motor fuel tax should be repealed
and gasoline should be taxed only
as other commodities are taxed,”
Printup stated. “It would be just
as sensible to put a special tax on
sugar or flour for highways as it
is to use gasoline tax revenue for
general purposes. The solution of
Georgia’s highway problem is now
mn the hands of the people of
Georgia. All you have to do is to
vote in the November 4, 1952 gen
eral election for the adoption of
the constitutional amendment to
protect special highway tax funds
for highway purposes.”
CHINA SELLS FOOD
NEW. DELHI—(AP)—India in
1951 bought 100,000 metric tons of
foodgrains from Russia in ex
change for tea, shellac, tobacco
and jute, Food Minister R. A. Kid
wai told questioners in parlia
ment.
There is no proposal to buy any
Soviet foodgrgns in 1952, he add
ed.
Red China, however, has offered
to sell 100,000 tons of rice on a
cash basis and the offer has been
accepted, Kidwai said.
MOOSE BESTS TWO CARS
AMHERST, Canada—(AP)— A
moose had the best of it when two
cars collided with the animal near
here. Two men were taken to the
hospital and both cars were badly
damaged. .
The moose ambled away into
the woods, apparently not serious
iy hurt.
Worry of
Slipping or Irritating?
Don’t be embarrassed by loose
false teeth slipping, dropping or
wobbling when you eat, talk or
laugh. Just sprinkle a little FAS
TEETH on your plates. This
pleasant powder gives a remark
able sense of added comfort and
security by holding plates more
firmly. No gummy, gooey, pasty
taste or feeling. It's alkaline (non
acid). Get FASTEETH at any
drug store.

New Towns Are Built In Holy Land
Cn Spot Where David Slew Giant
AP Newsfeatures
JERUSALEM. — The gradual
rejuvenation of the Holy Land is
now reachiig the. historic Valley
of Ajalon where Joshua fought the
Canaanites 3,500 years ago and
where — some 500 years later—
young David slew the giant Go
liath, . ao N ) A
Today, this central Israel region
is no longer called by its biblical
name, but the western part of the
“Jerusalem Corridor” leading
from the fields and groves of the
Jaffa-Tel Aviv coastal plain up to
the mountams of Judea, to the
monasteries of Ain Karem, (thei
birthplace of John the Baptist)
and to Jerusalem. ‘
While the 19-mile long and
nine-mile wide “Corridor” politi
cally belongs to the State of Israel,
the area to the north and south of
it is now within the Jordan-ad
ministrated part of Palestine. An
armistice frontier—not yet made
permanent by a peace treaty—
separates th~» two territories,
Firing in occasional skirmishes,
usually caused by marauders,
smugglers, or infiltrators, make
the i{ronticr audible. But that's
no more than a very weak echo
of the din of war heard four years
ago when the Arab-Jewith fight
ing was at its height.
Road construction was alread
begun during the Arab-Jewixi‘;
fighting. And. no less than 40 new
agricultural settlements and tran
sitional camp villages have now
been estaplished there.
The population of the “Corri
dor” is at present about 10,000,
almost all ¢f them recent Jewish
immigrants from Southern Arabia,
North Africa, Iran and the Balkan
countries. Only very few of them
were ever before what they have
now become: road builders, forest
workers, farmers or artisans. On
the whole, they make asuccess of
their new professions, helped by
the American United Jewish Ap
peal which provides the repayable
budget for cettlement and irriga
tion and all the technical assist
‘ance; by the Jewish National Fund
“Keren Kayemeth” which gives
the land and plants the forests;
and finally by the state which in
addition to road building organ
izes various services.
~ Four yeers ago — most of the
“Corridor” wras rocky, barren and
utterly desolate. It may take an
other geneiation or two till all this
has changed. But even now what
has already been initiated in the
old Judean landscape shows what
this part c¢f the Holy Land will
one day be: & blossoming country
'side with fields and farms.
Nocham is one of the 14 tran
sitional camp villages where a
belt of white houses for the new
comers already surrounds the
primitive canvas or corrugated
iron dwellings for the later-com
ers. Nearby, history looks down
the hill topped by the village of
Zoar where, Samson was born.
And the future looms from an-
other spot where a huge cement
fa~tory is being erected.

Who Gets Most of What
You Pay for Farm Seed?
When you buy a 16-cent loaf of
bread, 3%c or 20% is for the main
ingredient—flour. The other 80%
goes into the ‘‘makings,"” costs and
profits of distribution. When you buy
a 23¢ quart of milk, 11% to 14¢ (50
to 60%) of this retail price gces to
the dairy farmer, the other 40% to
50% to costs of transportation, prep
aration, packaging, distribution and
profit,
What percent of the retail field
seed dollar goes to the farmeér-pro
ducer of the seed? The average re
tail price for red clover seed in the
years 1945-49 was $53.70 per 100
pounds, or $32.22 per bushel. The
average price received by the pro
ducer for the seed retailed in these
years was $37.77 per 100 pounds, or
$22.66 per bushel, which means that
70% or 70c of every retail dollar for
red clover seed was paid to the
grower. The 30% or 30c not paid to
the producer represented the costs
of transportation, storage, insur
ance, interest, cleaning, shrinkage,
testing, bagging, labeling, market
ing, overhead and profit, as the seed
passed through the regular trade
channels of country shipper, proces
sor, wholesaler and retailer.
Take another important field seed
—alfalfa. The average retail price
was $50.00 per 100 pounds, or $30.00
per bushel. The producing farmer
received $34.20 per 100 pounds, or
$20.50 per bushel—67% or 67c¢c out
of the retail alfalfa seed dollar, Al
falfa seed comes mostly from more
distant growing areas, consequent
ly transportation is more of a fac
tor than with red clover and most
other field seeds.
Still another big-volume field seed
is Korean lespedeza—a seed crop
amounting up to 150 or 160 million
pounds annually. The average re
tail price for the same base period

was $11.40 per 100 pounds. The grow
er-producer received on the aver
age $8.50, meaning he received 75%
of the vetail price. His share here
was larger because of lower trans
portation costs.
Much progress has been made in
recent years in cleaning, handling,
distributing and' marketifg field
seeds. Because of better cleaning
machinery, improved methods of
distribution, more efficient and less
wasteful methods of marketing,
packaging, labeling, etc., less of the
consumer’'s dollar goes to these
services, more to the producer.
~ This efficiency and economy of
‘handling, processing and distribut
ing America’s field seed crops make
available to the ‘consuming farmer
the highest quality of seed possible
to produce, at meoderate price, and
assures the producer-farmer the
highest return on his production.

fiscal 1953. A total of $600,000,000
had been requested.
“By its action, the Congress has
ut the civil defense issue square

the people who must bear almost
the entire cost and responsibility
for bringing civil defense into be=~
ing,” he said.
