FO0 SLAUGHTER SCOREDBYC.O.. Killing of Pigs Held in Violation of lowa Law. By the Associated Press. ‘The Republican National Committee end a speaker under its auspices last night condemned what was termed the “wasteful slaughter of food sup- plies” by the Agricultural Adjustment Administration. In a statement, the committee said it had affidavits and photographs to show that livestock were killed by “New Deal agents” although “in some instances offers were made by public minded persons to buy calves and pigs from the growers at the price the Government had agreed to pay” and turn them over to relief organiza- tions. ‘The committee said the afidavits were from Dr. B. G. Williams of Oskaloosa, Iowa, and Johne H. Saucke, a farmer near Farnhamville, Calhoun County, Towa. Saucke, the committee contended, was forced under the terms of his A. A A contract in February 1935 to slaughter 45 pigs in violation of a State law forbidding any persons or corporation to “wilfully destroy or negligently suffer to go to waste with intent to increase the price” of any food product. Willlam Hard, making a radio speech under auspices of the com- mittee, said the consumer had “re- taliated” to New Deal efforts to lift pork prices “by buying less pork— and much less.” “Percelving this fact,” Hard said, “the Agricultural Adjustment Admin- istration now begins to try to put the blame on the drought of 1934 and the drought of this year. It charges these two droughts with the responsi- bility for the great decline in the number of hogs on farms.” B e —— E LIGHTS HELP HENS Ultra-violet lights to keep chickens well and make them lay more eggs drew support today from the Rural Electrification Administration. An administration publication said they were the latest gadgets added to the poultry equipment at its electrified farm near here. They will give 200 hens “the required amount of vitamn D producing rays,” the article ex- plained, and take the place of cod| D.C.CitizenGives Fire Company $3 For Traffic Fee ‘Bit Ashamed’ of Po- lice Action in Im- pounding Truck. Recalling the ready aild suburban volunteer fire companies have given in Washington during large fires, a Dis- trict citizen today offered to reim- burse the Capitol Heights, Md., fire- men for the $3 towing charge they were forced to pay in the Capital Tuesday. Enclosing a check, C. L. Nelson, Apartment 710, 2123 I street, wrote the Editor of The Star that he was “s bit ashamed of the action of our traffic department.” “On the occasion of large fires in the past in Washington, to which the bulk of our own fire department has been called, it has warmed my heart to note the ready response of our suburban neighbors for replacement or actual service,” he wrote. “To withdraw from possible service for an extended period such a piece of apparatus for a minor infraction of our traffic regulations is be- wildering. “I enclose a check for $3 payable to Capt. W. H. Wells of the Capitol Heights Volunteer Department.” The firemen’s hose truck, which had been driven into Washington to pur- chase favors for the department’s carnival, was impounded on a charge of being parked so as to obstruct traffic. At first $2 collateral was asked, but this was waived after the firemen paid the $3 towing charge. MRS.
