uation which in recent months has caused interest rates to climb to the highest levels in two decades.
The action will make it easier for the Tresury to borrow the nine to 12 billion dollar’s new rnoney it estimates it will need in the next few months, and might prevent further large interest rate hikes as the Treasury, industry and individuals make unprecedentedly large demands for credit.
The board dropped its reserve requirements for country banks, effective July 1, from 14 per cent to 13 per cent of their net demand deposits. Effective July 9, the reserve requirement for reserve city banks will be dropped from 20 to 19 per cent and for central reserve city banks from 24 to 22 per cent.
Overall, the action did not make a big change in the reserve requirements, which now average about 20 per cent.
But the reserve board announcement said the small percentage decrease in reserve requirements would release an estimated $1,156,- 000,000 of reserves. Since banks, on the average, will still be able to lend about five times the amount of their available reserves, release of this amount would enable them to increase their loans by about $5,780,000,000.
The board thus to some extent reversed its policy of the last two years in which, as an anti-inflationary measure, it has steadily tightened the money supply. The new move constituted recognition by the board that its tight money policy had gone far enough at present and needed some relaxation. The board could put the screw on the money supply again at any time by again hiking reserve requirements.
3 Solutions for Cattlemen Outlined by District Solon
WASHINGTON, June 24, (Spl.)—Representative Olin E. Teague of the Sixth Texas District Wednesday summarized three possible solutions to the situation facing stockmen because of the dropping cattle market and continued drouth.
Teague presented no solution of his own, but rather stated solutions which had been brought to his attention together with what he had been able to learn about them.
One suggestion was that the entire area where the most prolonged suffering has been experienced, be declared a drouth disaster area and that stockmen be able to buy, surplus cottonseed meal now held in storage, by the Agricultural Department. While this would provide a temporary relief, there is some feeling that such a move might be pointed to as a discriminatory one by those stockmen and cattle raisers not suffering from drouth, Teague said.
Another solution is that the government provide a system of credit for those in the drouth disaster area to enable them to stay in business. To this suggestion, Teague was informed that some 46 Production Credit Associations in Texas, the majority of which are governed by the Production Cx’edit Association of Houston are in fair financial condition and stand ready to assist farmers and stockmen.
That a program be initiated to purchase at least two million head of cows and process the meat for future use in the school lunch program, also has been suggested. Action in this respect has been taken as well as the purchase and pxncess of a number of cows for food for the Greek Axmy. However, funds for this latter program, initiated at the request of the Mutual Security Agency at the px-esent time ax-e negligible.
Teague pointed out that some administration leadex-s have stated that discrepancies in many areas of our economy at this time, have been bi’ought about by the removal of price controls and that the law of supply and demand will remedy these discrepancies.
“But,” Teague said, “the ability of the processors to stox-e huge quantities of meat has resulted in the consumers still paying a premium pidce for his beef.”
GIBill Great Boost For Colleges in US

Camera Club Sets Gathering Tonight
The Camera Club will meet Thursday night at 7:30 in the Senate Chamber of the MSC, announced Wayne Stark, director of the MSC.
The meeting has been called for the purpose of ox*ganizing club actirities for the summer.

Dean Morgan pointed out that the figures show “an anticipated enrollment of two and a half million in 1960. Any business which has shown an increase of this nature should have no trouble in convincing its stockholdex-s that the bvxsiness has been operated on a sound, firm basis.”
Moxgan declared that “by this I do not mean to imply that we should relax and say that our product is satisfactory. We know that in this couxxtxy there are still about one out of five who does not enter high School and that fewer than 63 per cent graduate.
Stresses Opportunities. “Thei’e is still opportunity fox-
use to expand our ‘business’ by offexlng something which will interest the 20 per cent in entering high school and the 37 per cent of those who haVe entered but db not graduate, to remain.”
The dean said that “63 per cent of the high school students who graduate are capable of doing college work but never enroll in college. The trend is upwai’d and should continue for some time.”
The speaker who was introduced by Miss Bexyl Walker, president of the Texas Association for Instructional Supervisors and supervisor of the Hale county school at Lubbock, said that “it seems to me that we should stop and take stock of our progress before we move too rapidly in any direction. We know that progi’ess is made only by meeting the changixxg times.”

Smallwood, Wilson, Rydell Cop Places In Livestock Show
Hax-old Smallwood, Gene Rydell axid Lee Wilson showed the winning animals at a livestock show, said J. K. Riggs, associate professor of animal husbandry.
The show, held at the A&M Beef Cattle Center, was sponsored by the A. H. 406 Class. The show was made up of three classes consisting of Hereford beef steel’s, Angus beef steers, and breeding bulls.
The champion and resexwe champion of each class were shown by Rydell and W. E. Davis of the Hei-eford class, Smallwod and Mil- ton Hensley of the Angus class, with Wilson and F. C. Clemens of the bull class. Smallwood showed the grand champion of tlxe steer class and Wilson, the grand champion of the bull class.
According to F. I. Dahlberg, professor of animal husbandry and judge of the show, each entry was judged on the proper pxeparation of the show animal and the showmanship with which each student showed his animal.-
This expexaence is very important for Ag. Ed. and A. H. ma- jors taking the course said Dahl- bex-g, because by actually doing the woxk, it will develop a better un- dex*standing and a greater appx-e- ciation for show stock.

Envoy Flying To Seoul For ‘Showdown’
SEOUL, Thursday, June 25—OP> Upwax-ds of a million South Ko- reans began massing Thursday on government orders for anti-txuce demonstrations in cities of the war- xavaged x-epublic on the thix-d an- niversary of the wax-.
The govex-nment in the provisional capital at Pusan officially named the anniversary “North- waxd Advance-Unification Day.”
Px-esident Syngman Rhee, scheduled speaker at Seoul’s huge mass meeting, opposed the truce on grounds it would move nox-th alone if need be to unify the peninsula.
Meanwhile, President Eisenhow- ex-’s personal emissaxy flies to Seoul Thux-sday aftexnoon for a critical face-to-face txuce showdown with Rhee.
Assistant Secretary of State Walter D. Robextson carries with him a pex-sonal document from Secretaxy of State Dulles which x-epox-tedly contains a “final com- pxomise offer” for settling the Kox-ean ai-mistice problems.
Mounted police threw a heavy cordon ax-ound the capitol in Seoul, site of Rhee’s speech.
During last year’s anniversary rally an aged Korean tided to shoot Rhee. But a police official said Thui'sday’s heavy guard was to forestall the planting of “mine fields or bombs” by. Communists agents.
United Nations diplomats were invited to Seoul’s rally but no invitations were sent out to Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor and subox-di- nates of his 8th Army. Duidng recent street parades by Koreans px*otesting a trace, some demonstrators tried to rush and stone U. S. militaiy installations.
U. S. 5th Air Force headquarters took the precaution of ox-dering all personnel in Kox-ea restricted to their bases for 48 hours, beginning Wednesday night.
In Berlin, another tx-ouble spot, a top-to-bottom pux-ge of the East German Communist party was x-e- ported under way Wednesday night as the Western Allies made their first dix-ect personal appeal to the Russians to lift martial law and x-estox-e nox-mal communications in East Beilin.
Maj. Gen. Pierre Manceaux- Demiau, Fx-ench commandant in Bex-lin, appealed pex-sonally to Soviet Commandant Mai. Gen. P. T. Dibx-ova on behalf of- Fx-ance, Bi’it- ain and the United States.Allied sources said the atmosphex-e was “somewhat chilly,” but the i*e- sumption of pex-sonal . contact for the first time since last week’s bloody uprising was considered a hopeful sign.
Hinricks Is Fine After Spider Bite
Cax-l Hinricks, junior business major, was bitten by a black widow spider Wednesday at 4:00 p. m.
Hinricks was working at the poultxy farm and was bx-ought to the College Hospital by Cecil Ryan.
Hindricks has shown no severe effects and should be released Thursday.
acid is not an antibiotic, it acts like one in its mode of action, accoi'd- ing to Dewey.
There ax-e 36 calves being used in the expei'iment. Some are less than 90 days old and are not allowed to pastux-e gx-aze, while the rest are older than 90 days and have access to pasture. The arsenilic acid is administered daily in an oral capsule foxm. Body weight, heart gii-th, wither height and barrel circumference are mea- sux-ed periodically and compared with conti*ol calves to determine the benefit gained by feeding the acid.
If the experiment proves that arsenilic acid is beneficial as a gx-owth stimulator, it will be of great economic importance to the cattleman because the acid is relatively cheap compared to antibiotics, says Dewey.
The experiment is expected to run until the latter part of August.
