Disposal Of Surplus Butter Still Worrisome Problem For Farm Secretary Benson ' . BY OVID A. MARTIN , . rr AP Farm Reporter WASHINGTON CP) Secretary of Agriculture Benson Is seeking to avoid if at all possible the use of taxpayers' mon ey to buy back markets butter has lost to lower priced uiaigaiiiie anu inner competitive lood products. wucuier Rf will DC BDie TO do this is a big question being posed in farm circles. Working against him is a threat of spoilage of big government surpluses. Late in the winter, Benson an nounced with some enthusiasm that he would put the government's Dig shocks 01 nuttor on bargain counters. This butter, .about 360 million pounds of it was a part of the dairy industry's production that consumers would not buy, at least not at the prices set under the government's price support program. These prices were about rnree pmes me price ol marga rine. Weeks and finally months- went by and the secretary kept nnttnnninp his rnt-nriep nnrnm' Then came his recent announce ment that the whole thing was off. He said he had changed his mind because it would cost the government too much to sell the butter to consumers at reduced prices, and because, In his opiu lun. such a program would not solve the problem of Vtoo mii"h" butter in 'he future. The secretary came to the con clusion there was danger thit what might be billed as a "tem porary" program for disposal o! a current butter surplus might develop into a permanent subsidy program under which butter would be sold to consumers below cost. The government would make up the difference to producers. Output Exceeds Demand Benson's evident fear was found ed partly on the fact that current production is so far in excess of consumer buying that it mig.it take a year to is months to work (he government out of the surplus business. Benson said there was a real Thursday Breakfast Orange Juice French Toast Honev Butter Milk Coffee Lunch Tossed Vegetable Salad Sliced Egg Sandwich Pear Sauce with Whipped Cheese Topping Milk Dinner Asparagus on Buttered Toast with Cheese Sauce Crisp Bacon Tomato - Cucumber Salad Cottage Cheese Relish Toast Butler Ice Cream Cantaloupe Sundae Milk Ice Cream ' With , Cantaloupe Lemon Sauce 1 cup sugar Vi cup water 1 small cantaloupe 1 lemon 1'ew grains salt 1 quart vanilla ice cream Cook sugar and water in sauce pan over low heat until sirup spins a thread stirring occasionally.

Serves . danger that a disposal plan could result in the government buying and selling all the butter produced in tne united states buying .t at the support price of about 57 cents a pound and selling it back to distributors to retail it at about 35 cents. Assuming that a government subsidized retail price of 35 cents would boost consumption to a point where, aftcrayearorso.i iote frea t,g all of the production and the gov ernment surpluses, officials woiuj face a difficult job in withdrawing the subsidy. Once the government halted the cut-price deal, butter prices would have to be raised again to the support levels. That would mean retail prices of 65 cents or higher. Doubtless, a lot of consumers would stop buying butler and re turn to margarine because of the price difference. Again production of butter would be in excess of demand. The extra butter would move into government hands aga'n and the government would soon find itself back where it started. Soon it would have to start a new disposal plan. Sale Of More Milk Urged There-was also the possibility and Benson undoubtedly thought of this that consumers and pro ducers, having enjoyed the bene fits of the subsidised price, wou'd protest against its being ended. Benson contends the dairy In dustry should make pjealer ef forts 'to sell more fluid milk. Should the government get inlo the business of subsidizing butt-r consumption, there would be lit tle incentive to scH the surplus as milk instead of in the form of butter. Benson's ability to avoid a but ter subsidy program will rest largely on the success of his ef forts to sell the government sur plus butter abroad and to move it into such noncommercial lo mestic uses as the school pro era m. public institutions and re lief distribution. The butter is being otrereo abroad at world prices, which are below U.S. prices. But so far little has been soid. The secretary could well come !o the place wheie he faced the necessity of offering butter at cut rate prices at home or allowing the government stocks to spoil. He has said a number of times that he will not permit it to spoil. Officials say most of the govern ment butter is less than a year oid. But there is a possibility that a vear from now some of it will be in danger of deterioration. The butter is beine checked every three months; So- far, virtually none haft Bone- bad. For the time being, Benson Is placing his hopes for solving the dairy surplus on (.) increased ex ports, (2) increased domestic con sumption of fluid milk and a re sulting decline in bultpr produc tion, and (3i culling of low-producing cows from dairy herds.

Today's Women By DOROTHY ROE AP Women's Editor Some of Hollywood's top stars are devoted churchgoers, eager to help the cause of religion, says the Rev. S. Franklin Mack, execu tive director of the Broadcasting :nd Film Commission of the Na tional Council of Churches. Back from the film capptal a'fter supervising production of the Na tional Council's latest film, "City Story," Dr. Mack is impressed ny the wave of religion which he says is sweeping Hollywc-dd, and by tl.e gratitude of famous stars at being asked to participate in church films. He says: "Hollywood churches are jam med with actors and actresses leading normal, Christian lives, Only these are the things you nev er hear about. The stories that make headlines are the scandals of the film colony, which involve only a small minority o( the people who make our movies, but which have given the world a wrong impres sion. "We have found that most of the stars we have approached to work in religious iilnis are tickled to death to help. They arc d lighted that their special talents can be of use to the cause of Lie churches." Jane Russell, for instance, is Sunday school tencher. Jimmy S.ewart has offered to do church films. Glenn Ford, James Dunn, Ruth Warwick, Warner Anderson and Arthur Shields, brother of Bar ry Fitzgerald, are among those who have appeared in movies spon sored ny the Nat'onal Council of Churches.

McCar thy (R-Wis) Tuesday he "better go to a psychiatrist." Symington tossed out that ad vice as he and McCarthy hooked up in another anuy exchange at die McCarthy-Army hearings. It was touched off when McCar thy insisted that Symington ought to take (he witness stand. Symington demanded, in turn, that McCarthy testify under oatn is connection with 1952 charge Involving McCarthy which were investigated by a Senate subcom mittee. As McCarthy re erred to Sym ington as "Sanctimonious Stu,'1 Symington broke in to say heat edly, "sen. Mccartny, 1 resent mat reference to my first name." Symington then said McCarthy ought to consult a spychiatrist. The row was a renewal of a hassle the two senators had late Monday. McCarthy contended then that the transcript of a March 8 tele phone talk between Symington and Secretary of the Army Stevens in dicated that Symington and Clark Clifford, once special counsel to lormer President Truman, had In fluenced Stevens to accuse McCar thy and his aides jf seeking pref erential treatment for Pvt. G. D.v "d Schine, drafted consultant to McCarthy's investigations subcom mittee. At the outset of Tuesday after noon's session, McCarthy told th subcommittee he doubts the Sen ate could "force" Symington to testify in the Inquiry, but that he believes the Missouri senator would be wise to do so because of public opinion Symington Representative Wallace Is Sued For Divorce PORTLAND W-Glenn C.

Partnership Plan For Power Backed SALEM un The Pacific North. west must adopt the Eisenhower power-partnership proposal if this region is to crow. William A. Pearl, Bonneville administrator, said here Monday. He said in a speech prepared for delivery at the Salem Chamber ot Commerce that the region would need nine million more kilowatts of hydro-electric power in the next 20 years. oThe Bonneville administrator estimated this would cost seven billion dollars. This seven billion comoarcs with a total investment in nydro projects and transmision in the Pacific Northwest of ontv 1.8 billion in the past 20 years " be said. 'Since the investment I'oguired to provide all the power for this region's needs is gigantic, the co-operation of ail groups in the area, federal, private and public, is imperative. This Is the reason for the partnership program which has been evolved ty tne Eisen hower Administration. And here I would like to emphasize that the power programs sponsored by local enterprise are in no way a substitute for the federal program. Rather they are a supplement. "However, the federal govern ment can be expected to provide only a portion of this investment. Local enterprise must provide the rest," he said. Under . the power partnership proposal local interests would participate in iinancing dams, thereby gaining the right to sell the power produced at the dams. "Utility operators, bankers, local people everywhere are alert to our power needs and are working to solve the problem. It appears likely that much of the needed capital can be raised and that several hydro plants will e started in the next few year," Pearl added. Housing Units Urged For Military Personnel Defense Head Says War Won't Stop Red Ism's Spread COLUMBIA, S. C. Ufl Secretary ot Defense Wilson said Monday "a third World War is not the answer' to the problem of stopping the spread of Communism. In an address prepared for the commencement and 150th anniver sary of the University of South Carolina, Wilson declared "we cannot knock out false ideas with bullets; we must counter and destroy them with the truth, with superior - ideas and sound philosophy." In cautioning against attempting to eliminate the Communist threat by another global conflict, the defense chief said: "Even a victory in such a war could be purchased only at the cost of such horrible waste and destruc tion tnat tne course oi nutnan progress would be set back many rtennlpj And even after the necessary reconstruction after such a victory in a imra world war, the Free World would still have the problem of what to do with the vanquished and how to establish conditions of peace in the world." However. Wilson emphasized that the United States and the Free World must remain militarily strong. He said that "I wish T could assure you with confidence :,iat the trend toward Communism had been stopped everywhere and that there was no possibility of seneral war resulting from the conflict between Russian Communism and the Free World."
