increasing the national income

No better evidence 01 tne tact
that the new Seventy-mth uon

found than that fifth-one members
proudly proclaim that they were
"born on a sfarm." Still others

augurs well -for those: who till the
soil and deserve tne most sympa

in this day of chains, mergers, and
crowded urban areas, nartly ex
plains why. nearly one-eighth" .of
Federal expenditures in ijo were
aimed at farm relief, and to im

CO SPEAKING OF BUDGETS
While there is tremendous interest
aa FEDERAL. REORGANIZA
TION .Perhaps the most signui
cant development 1 in the recent
Congress is the wholesale Federal
reorganization program submitted
by the President. The primary pur
pose of the reorganization, which
calls for two new cabinet posts, is
to promote efficiency in the ad
ministration of government af;
fairs. Congress, which is now, stu
dying the various -proposals, may
insist on economy as well. The out
look is favorable for some govern
ment reorganization, but there is
a question whethen the Congress
will permit the executive branch
to absoro some agencies mat were
created by, and are responsible to
Congress. The General Accounting
Office and the Federal Trade Com
mission are cases in point. 1
