FORESTRY: Give farm woodlands bet
ter management. Do a better job of mar
keting the timber crop. Reforest lands
best suited to rees. Provide proection
from fire, insects and diseases.
Successful farming is based upon the
production of field and forest crops ad-

apted to the land on which they grow.
Use modern methods of efficient prod
uction to obtain highest yields and re
turns.

Since I reported to you last
week, there have been several
developements here in Washing
ton which I beleive will be in
your best interests.
SENATE OKAYS GAS PROBE
The Senate Interstate and Fore
ign Commerce Committee, of which
I am a member and in which I
asked for a resolution last week
to investigate the increased price
of gasoline, is now ready to go
forward " with this investigation.
The Senate has approved an app
ropriation of $50,000 to carry out
the probe on why the price of
gasoline was increased by one
cent per gallion.
The Committee i^ authorized
to “investigate and make a com
plete study of any and all mat
ters pertaining to the product
ion for sale or use in interstate
commerce” of petroleum products.
In the resolution approved by the
Senate, four purposes are stated
for the investigation:
1. To Prevent serious economic
dislocation.
2. To provide for the proper
conservation and most effective
use of petroleum products.
3. To protect commerce among
the States in petroleum products.
4. And to me the most import
ant—To protect the consumers
of petroleum products from the
burdens and harmful effects bro
ught about as a result of the
operations of companies engaged
in the petroleum business.
I beleive this investigation will
enable us to find out whether
there have been any activities
going on which are not in the
public interest and whether there
have, been undue and unreason
able increases on the price of
gasoline which you, as purchasers,
have had to bear.
CIVIL RIGHTS FIGHT
Another matter of importance
to our people took place on Wed
nesday in a subcommittee of the
Senate Judiciary Committee. I refer
to the efforts of Senator Henn
ings of Missouri, chairman of
the subcommittee, to get approval
of a motion to give a favorable
report on some so-called civil
rights bills. By a vote of 5 to^,
the subcommittee defeated this
effort to report the bills to the full
Judiclacry Committee. The sub
committee then voted 4 to 3 again
st limiting hearings on the civil
rights bills to two weeks duration.
The result of all this activity
is that the chairman could sch
edule a time to begin the hearings,
but he could not fix in advance
a time when the subcommittee
would have to stop and vote on
the bills.
As of now, that is another vic
tory on the side of real constit
utional government and over the
efforts of federal civil rights to
impose new laws on our people
which would make it possible
for the Federal Government to
interfere with the rights of the
States to police their own affairs.
We will have to expect many
more battles on this subject.
FORT JACKSON HOSPITAL
Since my last report, I am
happy to say progress has been
made toward securing a perman
ent 500-bed hospital for Fort
Jackson at Columbia. The Secre
tary of the Army has now en
dorsed the larger hospital and
the Department of Defense has
informed me that it will also
approve the plan.
This means that an i additional
appropriation of $6,000,000 will
be needed to add to the $5,000,-
000 which was appropriated last
year for a smaller 250-bed hosp
ital. I am quite hopeful that
action will be taken by the Con
gress this year to provide the
additional funds for this worthy
project.
PLAN V A HOSPITAL WORK
Veterans in the area will also
be glad to learn of a program
to renovate and improve the Vet
erans Administration Hospital
near Columbia. The V A has in
formed me that it will submit
a request to the Bureau of the
Budget, and with approval of
that agency, to the Congress for
an appropriation of $510,000 to
do the work.
Improvements would include:
expansion of laboratory, x-ray and
clinic facilities; provision of a
group of surgical recovery beds;
modernization of the operating
suite; dining room and kitchen
renovations; a new emergency-
room entrance; expansion of a
space for oxygen storage, sterile
supplies and storage of patient’s
clothes and hospital records.
I hope it will be possible to push
thru this program at this session
of the congress.
High Cotton Supports Urged
Our cotton farmers will be in
terested to know that Agriculture
Secretary Benson plans to an
nounce the price support levels
for the 1957 cotton crop in the
near future. I have urged that
the Secretary increase the support
price from 82 1-2 to 90 per cent
of parity. He has authority to set
the support level between 90 and
75 per cent of parity.
r\ ESPITE the fact that virtuaHj
all species of game am much
less plentiful than during tha days
of our forefathers, more and more
Americans (currently 12 or IS
million or more) have taken to
the sport of hunting.
At first thought, it would seem
that this is a sufficient number to
completely eradicate every rabbit,
bob white, squirrel, and all else
form one tip of the country to the
other. Without closed hunting sea
sons, game laws, refuges and
other protective measures there
would certainly be cause for much
alprm. Our animals and birds, al
ready squeezed into limited areas by
the encroachment of our great
civilization would be in dire peril
But we shall have game to hunt
for many, many years to come.
Our State and Federal wildlife or
ganizations have been doing re
markable work in various parts
of the country. They are able to spot
trouble * areas and through closed
seasons, restocking and other ac
tivities preserve and reestablish
hunting programs in badly de
pleted areas.
Of as much concern as exhaus
tion of our game supply is the fact
that the constantly increasing
number of hunters are putting
additional pressures on available
hunting lands. Hunters must have
a place to hunt, and just as the
number of hunters are continual
ly increasing, so is the amount
of available hunting land decreas
ing. As our population continues
to grow, it is reasonable to assume
that more lands will be closed
to hunting by the trend to subur
ban and rural living, by new areas
turned to farmlands and by
“posted” signs unless hunters and 4
farmers can establish a solid
working agreement.
It may be that the day will come
when hunting will be limited to
areas owned and so designated
by the government but such is a
long time yet.

WINTER OF DISCONTENT
A N AUTHOR has written of the
- “winter of discontent.” Cer
tain it is that we are accustomed
to think of winter as trying and
difficult We speak of bitter weath
er, of ice and snow and of frozen
solitudes.
But let us not overlot* the joys
that come with the season and
the great days it brings — of
Chirstmas with holy thoughts of
the coming of Christ and the re
newed hope of peace and a bet
ter world, of New Year with its
thoughts of brighter days to come,
and then of the days when all the
family has been gathered togeth
er as on no other days of the
year. Then let us thank God for
the freezing weather that brings
the loved ones together.
And give much time to commun
ion with the Heavenly Father and
to thought of your great part in
the world around you. Instead of
the winter of discontent, winter can
be the blessed time to renew one’s
strength and become strong for
the tasks that shall come with the
days ahead.
