WASHINGTON The "Hoover
Commission's" report was a plan
of battle. It was drawn up amid in
tense controversies within the 12
man. bipartisan commission itself
as revealed by the many dissent
ing recommendations but the ma
jority did agree on a program for
reorganizing the executive branch
of the government.
Now the battle lines will form in j
Congress. Hut much of the program j
can be quietly adopted by the prcsi- ;
dent and his agency chiefs if the '
President wishes to do so. The
Budget Bureau has made a tenia- j
i the analysis of the commissions
reports aiift lias estimated inai uu ;
contain about 277 recommenda
tions. It has figured that about 8!)
of them can be put into effect by j
executive or departmental orders, j
Congress would have to aci on inc
rest.
By passing the pending Reorgan
ization Act of 1949. about 66 rec
ommendations could be adopted.
The President could make extens- ,
ive shifts in the present set-up. He j
could do such things as transfer !
the Coast Guard from Treasury to;
Commerce; or place the Recon
struction Finance Corp.. the Export-,
Import Bank and the Federal Dc- :
posit Insurance Corp. within Tien-
sury. The commission recommend-1
ed these changes.
The Reorganization Act has pass-
ed the house. The House Bill ex-1
empts certain agencies from any
general reorganization plan, but ;
provides that each plan as submitt
ed by the President shall go into !
effect within 60 days if not disap- j
proved by both Houses of Congress.
The Senate version, now pending j
on the Senate calender, contains no i
exemptions, but provides that a res- j
olution of disapproval by either of
the two Houses can kill any plan
submitted.
The Budget Bureau analysts be
lieve that 17 of the 277 recommend
ations would require appropriation
legislation. As for the remaining
185 recommendations, in the opin
ion of bureau experts Congress
would have to pass laws dealing
specifically with them.
Under this heading would come
the commission's proposal that an
accountant general be established
to supervise all accounting in the
executive branch; the creation of
a new welfare department, and the
authority for department heads to
appoint postmasters and other of
ficials under the rank of assistant
secretary without senate confirm
ation. Many bills are now being prepar
ed by executive agencies to pro
vide the legislation required. The
staff of the Hoover Commission It
self is drafting about 14 bills to pro
vide the legislation it believes nec
essary. The commission also is in
favor of the passage of the Reorgan
ization Act, although it wants no
agencies exempted.
ti ii.ioK.r ('nmniis' ion pro
posals, among others, are expected
to arouse fighting fury;
1. C reation of an accountant gen
eral, allowing the comptroller gen
eral only a power of review over
his decisions concerning account
ing practices within the executive
agencies The comptroller general
is the agent of Congress. The Presi
dent has no control over him
2. Transfer of most hospitals of
the armed services and the Veter
an's Administration to a new a
gencv. the United Medical Admin
istration. Veterans' Organizations
already have raised an uproar, and
the armed services, are not expect
ed to like the idea.
3 Transfer of the work of the
Army's Corps of Engineers to the
Interior Department. This would
he part of a plan to give Interior
full authority over all water de
velopment work and public power
planning The highly controversial
public power and rcclaimation is
sues arc involved here.
4. Giving the Secretary of Nat
ional Defense full power within his
department, denying the secretaries
of each of the armed forces their
present right of appeal to the
White House. In the original un
ification plan, the Navy insisted on
this right of appeal.
5. Turning the Civil Service
Commission into a policy making
body, with administrative agencies
doing most of their own hiring and
firing. Opponents see this as a re
turn to the spoils system.

Beef Cattle Raising Seen As
Good Supplement To Cash Crops
Want Ads bring quick results
Many people have the idea that
beef cattle raising involves herds
of 25 to 50 head of brood cows as
a minimum. While it is true that a
herd of this size or larger is neces
sary when beef cattle raising is the
main enterprise, many farmers are
doing well using this enterprise as
an adjunct to cash crop fanning,
says L. I. Case, in charge of animal
husbandry extension at N. C. State
college.
For example, says Mr. Case, a
herd of eight grade cows in Wilson
county netted the owner more than
$800 last year. This profit was pos
sible because the herd was a good
one to begin with, and a good bull
was used. And, probably more im
portant, the animals were furnish
ed ample feed consisting mainly of
green graii:,". crops the year round. ,
In addition, the owner practices
controlled hreeclinr'. and had his
' calves come in February and March
