Demos Rap
Ike's Veto of
Farm Ticket
(Story aIM m om.)
WASHINGTON un - Democrat
hit out in Senate dfbate Monday
at President Eisenhower's veto of
the farm bill. They predicted the
farmers will make their own re
ply in November's flection.
Backers of the vetoed farm bill,
guided through Congress by the
Democrats wjith the support of
some farm belt Republicans, con
tended it would have offered farm
ers an estimated two billion dol
lars more in benefits this year,
including 90 per rent of parity
for basic crops. These crops are
wheat, rice, cotton, corn and pea
nuts.
The House heard the President's
, veto message in silence. But there
was a burst of applause from Re
publican members when the clerk
finished reading It.
No General Bill
On Capitol Hill, the consensus
was that the veto could not be
1 overridden and there would be no
general farm bill enacted in this
election year. It requires two
thirds majorities in both Houses
of Congress to override a veto.
Adlai Stevenson and Sen. Estes
Kefauver, the two announced
candidates for the Democratic
Presidential nomination, are both
on record in favor of the bill.
They urged Eisenhower last week
o sign it.
Democrats have vowed repeat
edly to take the issue into the
upcoming Presidential and Con
gressinnal campaigns if Eisenhow
er refused to accept the bill. It
is bound to play an important
part in the struggle for, the farm
vote.
Angry Debate
An angry debate broke out al
most immediately in the Senate,
with Sen. Ellender (D-La) assert
ing Eisenhower "did not know
what was in that bill.
"He was too busily engaged in
playing golf at Augusta," said
Ellender, chairman of the Senate
Agriculture Committee.
Sen. Knowland of California, the
Republican leader, defended the
President and said, "I do not be
lieve anyone in the country be
lieves that President Eisenhower
desires to see farm income go
down.
There was "an honest difference
of opinion" over how to help the
1 farmers, Knowland said, and
"only time will tell" which group
was right.
Sen. Olin D. Johnston (D SC)
issued a statement saying Eisen
hower "has stabbed the farmers
in the back "
"He has forsaken the farmers
and they have every right to for
sake him and his Republican poli
cies in November," Johnston said.
New Proposals
There were some Republicans
among those who voted for the
bill who felt the veto was soft
ened by the President's new pro
. posals to boost farm income.
In his message to the House,
where the ' bill originated, the
President said it was with in

Fasting Aid
In Radiation,
Writer Says
By FRANK CARET
AP Sclewe Reporter
ATLANTIC CITY fi - Being
"off your feed" for several. days
prior to an atomic bomb attack
perhaps through fear of its
imminence might help protect
you against radiation, t scientific
report indicated Monday.
At least a -protective etiect or
fasting" ban been demonstrated
in rata.
Dr. S. T. Taketa of the U. S.
Naval Radiological Defense Lab
oratory, &an Francisco, told about
the rat studies at the opening of
. i l - :?T1 -' L
me annual sig mrcuiig oi mc
Federation of American Societies
for Experimental Biology.
Super-Lethal Dote
Taketi said a super-lethal dose
of X-ray killed most mice during
the third to fifth days after ex
posure. However during this pe
riod deaths were reduced from
about 75 per cent to 30 per cent
by fasting the animals for 24
hours prior to irradiation."
Taketa said those who had been
fed were less able to readjust the
balance of water and red cells
in their blood following irradiation.
Another scientist told a newt-
man that "u men are like rats
wth regard to radiation effects
and experiments indicate they are
fundamentally similar this
might mean that loss of appetite
just before an atomic attack
might have some " protective ef
fect." Good Thl.'
"Thus, he said, ' getting the
pants scared off you by thinking
of the imminence of an atomic
attack at a certain time might
conceivably be a good thing." ,'
Another report told of rats
which had been, in effect, "tough
ened up" to withstand a rough
and-tumble experience. These
rats turned out to be more sus
ceptible to harm from radiation
than were non-toughened rats, ac

still another in 1963, in order to
provide facilities for students now
