Beware of itinerant barn painters and a national scam
The National Better Business Bureau warns farmers about itinerant painters posing as painters to spray paint barns and silos with diluted or adulterated materials. Gangs travel in trailers or trucks, often with five gallon paint cans as bait, and operate near Scranton Pennsylvania and the southeast. A notable suspect includes a man and his son in a green 1948 or 1949 GMC truck with Alabama plates. Residents are advised to avoid strangers offering unusually cheap painting and to investigate thoroughly before allowing work.

Truman Wins Big 81st Congress Victory on Displaced Persons Act Reform
President Truman secured his first major win in the 81st Congress as the Senate approved the liberalized displaced persons act by a 49 to 25 vote. He signed amid protest, urging broader agricultural reform including a potato payment system to aid farmers and consumers. The measure expands displaced person admissions, outlines quotas, and signals momentum for a long-range farm program. The debate featured sharp party-line strain and a near-record narrow margin, with 344,000 DPs admitted through July 1, 1951 and additional targets for war orphans, refugees, and other groups.
