I Farmers Can Make
Wheat Allotment
Applications now
It was announced by Union
County Agricultural Stabilization
and Conservation Chairman, Ben
L. Robinson, that a farmer who
has had no wheat acreage history
in any of the three years, prior
to the current cron year may make
an application for a new farm
wheat allotment.
, Robinson stated that an applica
tion for a new farm allotment must
be made by the operator or the
owner. He further states that to
be eligible for the new farm wheat
allotment the application must be
filed on or before the closing
date. " ;'
The County Committee will then
determine if the land would or
dinarily produce a good crop of
wheat and that other small grains
beside wheat will be included in
the farming system. Also, the
operator will receive SO percent
of his livelihood from the farming
operation. -:
It was: also pointed out that If
the County Committee approves
the new farm allotment for the
farm, it will then be sent to the
State Office for final approval and
they will determine the allotment
for al) new wheat farms. i 1

Dynamite-laden Report
is rinaiiy rneu Loose
WASHINGTON For several
weeks there has been a hush-hush
effort Inside the house judiciary
committee to Dieeonhole a dyna
mite-laden report on the world's
biggest utility, American Tele
phone and Telegraph. Three Re
publican congressmen and one
Democrat have been sitting on
the renort. Thev didn't say so
in so many words, but it was od
vious from their actions that most
of them didn't want the report
on American Tel and Tel wire
pulling to get to the general pub
lic.
The three Republicans who sat
on the report are: William Mc
Culloch of Ohio. William E. Mil
ler of New York, a well-known
friend of the public utilities; and
George Header of Michigan.
Meader, however, has been a
member of the committee only
this year, was not familiar with
the hearings of last' year, and
said he needed time to study the
voluminous records.
The one Democrat is: Byron
Rogers of Denver.

ler of Brooklvri went to Rogers
and urged him to vote with his
(cllow Democrats in getting the
report of the public. He pointed
out that American Tel and Tel
with iff subsidiary Western Elec
tric, had been guilty of flagrant
antitrust violation and had used
all sorts of wire-pulling to get
their case, which was brought by
the Democrats, settled inside the
Justice Department by the Ropub
licans.
At first Rogers wouldn't budge.
Finally Cellar got tough.
"You're already in trouble back
n Denver with these people on
your payroll who don't seem to be
doing much work," Celler warn
ed. ''I wouldn't advise you to get
in wrong any further."
Finally, Celler got his report re
leased, i Manny is guarding its
contents as if it contained the se
crets of the hydrogen bomb. How
ever, this column can reveal that
it is a 350-page document which
takes the hide off American Tel
and Tel, its subsidiary Western
Electric, Attorney General Brow
nell, T. Brooke Price, counsel for
A.T. and T., together with Bayard
b. Pope, president of the Marine
Midland corporation of New York1
tor flagrant lobbying and anti
trust fixing.
The report tells of secret meet
ings between Brownell ,(then at
torney general), Pope and Price
in the Statler hotel in Washing
ton and the Greenbrier hotel in
White Sulphur Springs, W. Va,
Pope is a member of the execu
tive committee of the New York
Telephone Company, also a direc
tor of the Statler hotels. Sena
tor Keating, New York Republi
can, a good friend of New York's
Congressman Miller who sat on
the report, is a director of one of
Pope's Midland Banks. As a re
sult of the secret confabs, the
Justice Department dropped its
case against Western Electric and
A.T. and T. with a milk-and-water
consent decree.
The man who negotiated the
consent decree for Brownell was
Edward A. Foote, the Justice De
partment attorney who later was
fired for having a conflict of in
terest namely, buying stock in
Warren Petroleum at the time his
office was passing on its merger
with Gulf Oil. x
Note A.T. and T. stock will
split three for one next month
in a record-breaking dividend
which when announced last win
ter sent its stock up $23 a share
in one day.
Wealthiest Senator
Big Bob Kerr, richest man on
Capitol Hill (his personal fortune
is rated at a cool. 35,000,000) is
having the seat of his pants
scorched by a grass-rcots rebel
lion in Oklahoma. Inside word is
that the Sooner state's attractive
22-year-old governor, Howard Ed
mondson, or his brother. Rep. Ed
Edmonson, will tackle Senator
Kerr next year.
Reason for. the revolt' is that
Kerr, whoso booming yoicc key
noted the 1944 Democratic con
tention, is lining up with the GOP
and big business on- key votes.
The senator ' makes no bones
of. the fact that his vote is in
the vest pocket of Secretary of
the Treasury Robert Anderson or
ke's budget;., director, Maurice
Stans. - - , i, ,
Kerr kicked ''the traces apt)
voted with ' Republicans in the
finance commit(e,e on a jobless
pay bill that Secretary Anderson
turned thumbs down, on, ."Kerr's,
vutc also assures 'the Eisenhower
administration that th.e. , Denm.
crats won't bHi able to push,
through any tax reform. For he
is sure to line up with Harry Byrd
of Virginia and the Republicans'
to block any changes. "
And when Democrat leaders
talked to Kerr ., about voting
against confirmation of Lewis
Strauss for . secretary of com
merce, he blandly drawled, "I'd
like to help ypi) , boys, but Bob.
Anderson asked me to vote, for
Strauss, and I .told, him I would.
You know Bob;, iand Maurice
Stans have been .mighty good to
Kerr's actions -arc no surprise
to those who have watched him
hustling furiously, backstage for
a multi-million-doUar pork-barrel
project which would benefit the
booming Kerr-McGco Company.
This project whielj would open up
the Arkansas river- to navigation
from the Mississippi to Tulsa.
Kerr-McGec has been quietly
buying up thousands of acres of
land in Le Flore county, Oklaho
ma, which borders on the Arkan
sas river project, in anticipation
of a giant industrial boom. - The
senator himself is building a half-
million-dollar mansion in - this '
area. , : , .'
Blistering Sgpreme Court
An attack on the U. S. Supreme
Court that would; have made a
front-page sizzlervas finally de
leted from a house' appropria
tions committee reported the other
day after Congressman John Shel
ley, California Democrat, raised
cain behind closed doors. '
Shelly threatened to write a
blistering minority, report of his
own if Democratic- Rep. George
Andrews of Alabama, chairman
of , a subcommittee on general
government matters, and Republi
can congressman John Tabor' of
New York didn't ' tone down the
anti-court diatribe.
The torrid document was aim
ed at the court's'" refusal to up
hold a 1953 order by the subver
sive activities control board re
quiring the registration of the
Communist party and other sub
versive groups , under the McCar
rin internal security act.
"I won't go along with such an
inflammatory attack on the Su
preme Court," Shelley told his
committee colleagues. "It is
both improper and irresponsible.
We on this committee are suppos
ed to deal with dollars, not per
sonal opinions , oo questions of
law as determined by the judi
cial branch of our government."
After listening .to Shelly V pro
test, Chairman Andrews conced
ed that the criticu.ni -of the Su
preme court was "to severe" and
ordered the committees staff to
change the language.
