Although shrouded in what the members hope is secrecy, terms of the agriculture sub-committee recommendations on duplication of activities in experi mental and market work have be come pretty well known. The main point at issue was the test farms now operated by the Department of Ag riculture and which State College wants. The sub-committee will reco mend that the test farms continue us at present, Tfyey further will recom merid that duplicate and triplicate office-holding be eliminate in both the college and the department. This is directed at several situations, one of them being the three jobs held by Dean Schaub, as dean of the school of agriculture, director of extension and acting director of the central experiment tsation. On the question of marketing, and ot some other minor points the matter if left to the two departments to work out mutual agreements. Sub-Sub-Committee Overruled In these recommendations the sub committee overruled the recommen dation of its “super-suds” committee, as the group of live men named as a sub-sub-committee to give further study to the matter, have been dub -1 bed. Finding that parliamentary pro cedure did not admit a sub-sub the boys jocularly called it the “super suds.” This group of five was known to have recognized strong views on the test farm matter, and a majority of them was known to be in favor of changing their administration. The campaign for removal of the test farms was fostered by the Farm Bureau, which has all its strength in the east and in few counties there. Three of the five men on the “super suds” were from these counties. The other two were from the Piedmont seciton. There wasn’t a western man named on the group. The lull sub committee was more representative of the State as a whole and looked at the matter from a broader point of view. The full joint-committee on agri culture will receive the report early next week, and while there will un doubtly be some opposition to it, chances are much better than ever that it will be adopted. Feeling is so strong among the group, however, that a minority report is quite possi ble. Secrecy Insisted Upon Veteran legislators have expressed amusement at the lengths to which the group studying duplication have gone to preserve secrecy. Executive sessions were the rule; and in this case the term meanst just that. Fi nance and appropriations committees held many executive sessions, but al ways outsiders were admitted upon pledge of divulging only results and not the procedure by which results were obtained. The agricultural sub committee and the “super-suds” com mittee not only didn’t admit outsid ers, they didn’t adimt members of their own full committee, and they have tried desperately to keep any body from finding out #hat they did while in session. Hope for Accord Voiced Workers at the college and in the department, as well as agricultural leaders throughout the State, have voiced the hope that the committee action will end the prolonged dis pute. These actual workers have not been so much interested in the poli tical ramifications or the ramifica tions or the contests for authority which the chiefs have waged. They want the issue determined so their work for the improveemnt of farm ing conditions can proceed in a nor mal way. Not many of them ever come into personal contact either with Most of them, and this correspond- Most o fthem, and this correspond ent has interviewew several dozen, have not seen evidence of the ser ious effects imputed to “duplication” and they regard the whole thing as a scramble for prestige by some so called leaders who want to point to great accomplishments as the basis for continued tenure in their present posts. The season for ice hockey, roughest game in sportdom, is about over. Soon the players will hang up their, sticks and begin to convalesce. Talks To Doctors Dr j Dr. Charles F.

W. Anderson. Cotton and peanuts, for a long time the mainstays of income in the county, have not been dependable in recent years as steady producers of cash money. Therefore, producers have turned their attention to other sources of income. If the tomato-lima bean project is successful this year, the plan will be made a permanent feature of the county agricultural program. A large canner in Virginia will take the en tire crop.
