Editorial notes Rep. John Myers of the Seventh District offices HR 11671 to require a certified future-cost estimate for any new federal program costing at least 1 million dollars annually. He cites TFX Medicare Alliance for Progress and C-5A as examples of misleading funding. The proposal would need a GAO certified pro forma cost before committee reporting to floor.

West Decatur Tl reports 726 cropland acres handled with machines and help, while Alberta fields show 2,000 acres per worker in wheat, pork production by two-litter sows reaches 3,000 hogs, and dairy and cattle operations exceed 1,000 cows per man.
