Thomas claimed the Brannan letter backed a flat 90 per cent of parity for basic crops corn,! wheat, cotton, tobacco, rice and peanuts, In preference to the flex ible 75 to 90 per cent support plan now pending. It was a battle over this 90 per cent amendment sponsored by Senators RuagejJI (D.-Oa.l and Young (R.-N.D. that forced sen ate leaders to send the" bill back to committee earlier this week.

Thomas, committee chairman, told reporters that if the Young Russell 90 per cent amendment Is defeated, he will offer the original Brannan plan as a suhstl tule for the flexible price bill. The Brannan plan rejected by both the House and the Sen ate proposed a system of 'pro duction payment subsidies to farmers on perishable farm pro ducts instead of the government price support system. It would let market prices go where sup ply and demand led them. Before Thomas brought up the Brannan letter, the Senate ac cepted an amendment Intended to prevent use oi govcrmeni. owed commodities from "break ing market prices." Agreement to restrictions on sales of government stocks ac quired under price supporting loans or purchases came on a voice vote. The new limitation on sales by the Commodity Credit corpora tion, Agriculture department agency which carries out the support operations with a $1,750, 000 fund, was offered by Senator Anderson (D.-N.M.), floor mana ger for the bill.

Norman Siefarth presented the Lions cup to the two players. Speaking on "Science vs. Crime," Bernard gave case his tories of the tracing of a check forger and the solving of the Hol lywood State bank armored car $111,000 robbery, one of the most daring in the history of crime. He discussed the part science had played both In proving the guilt of criminals and also in estab lishing the innocence of sus pects. Rolo of Science Important Up until 1932, crime detection was primarily a matter of per sonal observation and informa tion obtained through talking with Individuals. But since that year, when the FBI was set up, science has played an Increas ingly Important part. The FBI's laboratory equip ment Is now valued at more than a million and a half dollars, to gether with laboratory techni cians. A new electronic micro scope has been invented which can magnify organisms 60,000 times. Tracing of handwritings on for ged check led to the capture of one check artist, who posed as everything from a college pro fessor to a U. S. marshal!, en gineer equipment buyer and even a buyer for a prison from which he had Just been released, stated Bernard. He reviewed the case of this man, one of the most famous of forgers, and the man's activities, charted on a map, looked like a great web. The for ger is now in a New Jersey pen itentiary. Violet Ray Aids Law The use of violet ray broke the case that convicted two young men for Hollywood bank robbery. The violet ray brought out num bers on a badge found among the possessions of one of the mi, and he was traced to a Los Angeles plant where he had previously worked. The belief that a battleship had been sabotaged was dis counted, after electrical experts proved a fire could result from a short circuiting In the com munications wiring, he explained. He told further how two youths, believed involved In a hit-run-accident, were exonerated, when It was found what was thought to be human blood on their car was animal blood. Elkton By PHYLLIS A.
