SCHOOL KIDS will feast on Michigan canned cherries -when
they return to their desks this fall: Recently the Agriculture
Department announced that it would buy 169,000 cases of the
gorgeous Michigan fruit for the school lunch pregram at prices
averaging $5.17 per case f.o.b. shipping point. Michigan~s share

comes to about three-fourths of the total nation-wide purchase.

Participating schools will receive their cherries between August

Cherry growers had some bad
moments recently when the military suspended its custemary
practice of ordering in large
advance lots) Without notice, the

rass switched to an ~as needed~
basis, driving down cherry prices
and ~stirrring apprehension
throughout Michigan. An S. O.
S. from cherrymen sent me
hurrying to the Pentagon, Fortunately I was able to put
enough pressure on the Defense
Department to get the policy
substantially reversed and now
the cherry picture is cheerier.

LONG OVERDUE news for
home buyers came the other day
with word of lower down payment rules. At the White House
early this month I urged ~President Eisenhower to use his au
thority to lower the down pay-'

ments on new homes financed
by Federal Housing loans and
I~m pleased to report that within a few days he did so.. The new schedule calls for |

3 per cent down Qn the first
$10,000, 15 per cent on the
next $6,000 and 30~ per cent
ahove $16,000. This should
stimulate home building, which
has been lagging not only in

_ Michigan but everywhere. Un
fil the change went into effect.
down payments were pegged
at 5 per cent on the first $9,000
and 25. per. cent on ee

A TYPHOON of-mail from

General ~Services Administration

structing a new federal building
on historic Jackson Place, site
of the $500,000 Grange. property.

That building represents years
of work. More than 7;000 local
Granges raised money the hard
way~through box lunches, din
ners and amateur plays ~ tu
purchase their property.
Grange members across

America have their nickels and
dollars invested in their national
headquarters, and to my mind
the Government-has shown no

ing. It already owns three plots
on Jackson Place and would use
the Grange property, after razing, for lawn only. I~ve introduced a bill to block GSA~s
effort.

BAD AXE owes its name to a
broken axe found on the site by
surveyors. Before the Post Office Department banned ~picture~ addresses, letters, marked
with only a sketch of a broken
axe found their way to the
