for income tax purposes, it was
pointed out.
The organization, a tobacco
.no'-ei s cooperative marketing:
association, was set up for the j
purpose of stabilizing the price of j
tobacco at 90 percent of parity j
on the w arehouse floor That is j
its primary objective; a distri
bution of net gains is secondary
to the real purpose of the organ
ization, Mr Weeks expressly
pointed out in a special letter
Receipts of the stabilization co
perative in 11152 were the second
highest since the- organization was
created The 1947 crop receipts
amounted to 292 million pounds.
Through the 19th of last month,
the cooperative's receipts added;
up to 104,357,902 pounds or al-j
most eleven percent of the poun
dage marketed.
At the present time. Stabiliza
tion has stocks of tobacco on hand !
totaling approximately 220 mil- |
lion pounds (dry weight). This
includes 1952 receipts plus 73!
million pounds of old crop to

Air Force Chief j
Has Good Report!
General Hovt S. Vanderburg,
Air Force Chief of Staff, recently
o'npli ted five-week round-the
world inspection tout and, m a
news conteren. e shortly after
wards. asserted that U. S. air
strength is now much more for
midable than it was a year or two
ago. The General believes that
'all actually good air targets in
North Korea, with the exception
if lines of communications" have
been destroyed.
The General estimated that the
Russians had 900 MIGs in Korea
against some 300 U. S. F-86 Sabre
fighters. Since the strength of
enemy jets was estimated at 1,000
several months ago, it seems ap
parent that theii numbers are not
increasing.
In addition. General Vanden
burg said the aggressiveness ol
Ihe MIGs has declined in recent
months. He claims that the Air
Force's major role in Korea at
present support for the artillery
—is not a "very lucrative target.”
This role includes the seeking out
il entrenched gun positions and
personnel and attacks on same.
The General hints that the Unit
ed States is now in a much better
position to deal with crises which
may arise in other areas of the
world than we have been 111 some
time. His tom was a more opti
mistie one than were reports re-j
suiting from inspections a year or
so ago. j
In fact, a fie i Gen. Vandenbui g's j
previous visit to Korea, he return i
d and immediately dispatched a '
einforcing wing of Sabre jets to
the theater because of the hard !
jrcsscd situation Americans then
ound themselves in. The situa-j
ion at tins time appears to be
nuch more stable, perhaps, mild -
y encouraging.

Ducks Get Caught
Sleeping On Job
Four domesticated white ducks
recently succeeded in causing |
quilt n commotion neat •>.jis
dale. New York. It seems the
ducks, which had lost the vigor
their wild cousins possess, were
frozen in a thin sheet of ice on
the surface of a river, where they
slept peacefully as the ice solidi
fied.
Noting the plight of the ducks,
several nearby citizens appealed
to the police and the response
was an emergency truck equip
ped with floodlights and a row
boat on a trailer. The ducks were
rescued, wrapped in blankets and
carried to living quarters and
warmed by a radiator.
As most people know, wild
ducks, which must take care of
themselves or perish, avoid such
traps by paddling with one foot,
even while sleeping. Hut the fat,
domesticated ducks have become
too soft for such survival and
were thus trapped by nature,
