School Lunches,
Soil Act Safe,
Camp Explains
The soil conservation and school
7unch programs seem safe, Con
gressman Sidney Camp writes. He
Bays congress is racing to finish its
Work by August 1. He writes:
The past week has been a contin
uous grind, every effort being made
by the Republican majority to finish
the work of the session by August
Ist. Our sessions last until late in
the evenings and we work at day
in the same manner.
The tax bill was voted on and
passed in both House and Senate.
The only change in it was the ef
fective date —H. R. No. 1 proposed
the tax reduction to begin July 1,
1947, and the new bill proposing
the effective date as January 1,
1948. The president vetoed the bill
and the Senate upheld the veto.
The rest of the week has been
given over to conference reports on
appropriation bills, and I am glad
to say that many agricultural items
that at first were cut out have
been restored —such as the Soil Con
servation program, the School Lunch
program, etc.
When the session closes, I predict
that the Republicans will not have
reduced expenditures more than
half of their boasted intentions. We
hope to be home soon.

IN MEMORIAM
In loving memory of my dear son,
Walter H. King, who passed away
two years ago, July 24, 1945.
Memories are treasures no one can
steal,
Death is a heartache no one can heal,
Some may forget you now that you
are gone,
I shall never forget you no matter
how long. v
—Mother.
It begins to look as if Georgia will
have two primaries next year. The
Thompson forces are in control of
party machinery and will hold one
primary and the Talmadge forces
plan a primary. The issue may be set
tled in the general election with
plenty of fireworks mixed in.
The fact that cotton has touched
the 40-eent level is none too en
couraging to the fellow who will
not produce much of the staple this
year. The local cotton crop is far
from encouraging at this time.
