Farm Exports Cut by 40 Percent During a Decade
Fred Bailey reports that U S farm exports and imports of agricultural products fell to 60 percent of 1949 levels last year. The decade saw a $1 billion drop in farm product value and declines in equipment and wheel exports, driven by domestic shortages, wartime prep, and foreign protectionism. Germany's reduced purchases before World War II sharply reduced cotton exports and overall U S farm trade.

Commissioners to Protest Warren Hospital Charges
Erie county commissioners plan to travel to Harrisburg to seek two goals. They request a substantial Erie county road improvement program and urge the state to relieve Erie county of the burden of aging patients at Warren State Hospital. The county already appropriated 120000 to Warren in 1929 to cover expenses for 691 local patients and 108000 is included in the 1980 budget. They want stricter collection from relatives of patients to share costs, noting about 8000 monthly paid by the county. They will press Welfare head Arthur Sweeny for a more active collector in Warren County and for the collection to benefit both county and state accounts.
