Nationall y Grange Master Herschel D B Newsom opposes any federal income tax cut for 1956. He argues a cut would inflate costs for farmers, widen the farmer’s price gap, and raise debt financing needs amid a booming economy. The Grange cites war costs, deficits, and political timing as reasons to resist reductions. Julian Hazelwood and George Hazelwood are arrested in separate cases linked to earlier warrants, with a trunkful of whiskey found in a vehicle and police checks leading to further detentions.
