The Chief executive tackled the
message-framing project after
what his doctors said was a
"good night's sleep of more than
eight hours" that left him "feeling
refreshed and in a jovial mood."

WASHINGTON ( -Secretary
of Welfare Folsom Thursday greet
ed two of the country's top young
farmers.
Visiting him were Dan Dunham,
Lakeview, Ore., new president of
the Future Farmers of America,
and Joe Moore, Granville, Tenn.,
the FFA's 1955 Star Farmer of
America.
They showed Folsom the cita
tions they accepted at a military
Secretary i review Wednesday in behalf of
the FFA from Maj. Gen. John H.
Stokes Jr., commanding officer of
the military district of Washing-
ed some of the points that are
likely to be covered. So have cab
inet members and other top of
ficials who have been flying to
Denver to consult him.
In contrast with their silence on
conferences with the president in
Washington, these executives have
been holding regular news con
ferences here on what they dis
cuss and legislative recommenda
tions they present.
The problem of sagging farm
prices scarcely can be overlooked
in the State of the Union message.
Political Debate
Already it is a subject of hot
political debate. Secretary of Ag
riculture Benson, who has can
celled an extensive European trip
because of the farm problem, is
flying out from Washington Sat
urday to confer with Eisenhower.
Dr. Gabriel Hauge, Eisenhow
er's personal adviser said here
Monday he was sure Benson would
"discuss in some detail his ideas
about additions" to the farm pro
gram.
After a conference with Eisen
hower Tuesday, Secretary of the
Interior McKay told newsmen that
the State of the Union or subse-j school construction and highway
quent special messages will re-1 legislation as "absolutely vital 10
sumbil to congress the upper Col- our future." He said these "must

He also mentioned other mea
sures which Congress failed to ap
prove at the last session in terms
indicating he still intended to
press for : them. Among the items
he ticked off were: Statehood for
Hawaii, an ftomic-powered ship
to cruise the world and demon
strate how the atom can be har
nessed for peaceful purposes,
amendments to the Foreign Refu
gee Law, simplification of cus
toms procedures, and military

Keeps Privacy
Atty. Gen. Brownell announced
here that the president had ap
proved a Justice Department pro
gram to improve the prison sys
tem and the handling of federal
criminal-cases. Part of this pro
gram involves legislation to make
it a crime to intrude on the priv
acy of juries.
Hauge and Dr. Arthur F. Burns,
chairman of the president's coun
cil of economic advisers, dis
closed that the chief executive
had okeyed a plan to help com
munities suffering from chronic
unemployment even in prosper
ous rimes. This, too, is expected
to require legislation.

so much better than ordinary bread!

ens the cells and any air pockets not entirely
squeezed out are sealed off in the tender golden
crust. Thus, Spun slice "A" is actually made ah-tight
to stay fresh longer. And this means better flavor.
The Spun Process also assures perfect texture.
In ordinary bread, slice "B", texture runs directly
through the slice. Air passes easily from one side to
the other, quickly drying the bread and spoiling
the flavor,
