Lawmakers ask clarification on wheat plan WASHINGTON' (LTD - Ten Republican wheat stale congress men urged President Kennedy to day to "clarify" his position on the proposal to sell U. S. surplus wheat to Russia. The legislators' wire In Kenne dy came after three cabinet-level officials endorsed the transaction at a meeting with the Senate Foreign Relations and Agricul ture Committees. Agriculture Secretary Orville L. Freeman, Commerce Secre tary Luther H. Hodges and Un der Secretary of State George W. Ball told the senators at a closed door session that the administra tion would decide within the next few days whether to allow pri vate U. S. wheat traders to sell to the Russians. The 10 congressmen asked Ken nedy what diplomatic pressure the United States could apply to other free world countries trad ing with Cuba nr other Commu nist nations if the U. S. -Russian wheat deal went through. "Will such a sale to Russia impair the present policy of containment in Cuba?" they asked. They also asked what the fu ture U. S. policy would be toward Red China, Communist North Viet Nam and Cuba should those nations offer gold or dollars for wheat or any other surplus farm products. "As representatives of wheat producing areas, we shall apprec iate -answers to the questions raised. Without specific informa tion it is difficult for us and the many farmers we represent to make a proper appraisal," they said. The in signing the telegram were: Reps. Robert J. Dole, Garner E. Shriver, Joe Skubitz and Robert F. Ellsworth, all of Kansas; Albert H. Quie and Odin Langen, both of Minnesota; Don L. Short of North Dakota: Ben jamin Reifcl of South Dakota; Donald G. Brolzman of Colorado, and Catherine May of Washing ton. A wheat sale to Russia could be carried out without specific congressional approval, but Ken nedy's advisers have been con sulting at length with the House and Senate committees involved. Administration officials also have been discussing the proposal with American wheat traders and farm organizations. But a State Department spokesman stressed the United States still had not received a formal request to li cense a special wheat sale. During the Senate committee hearing. Freeman and Hodges endorsed the rale and Ball gave what was described as "qualified support" after outlining at length arguments for and against it.

There Russia not in mood for negotiations NEW YORK lUPI) - Russia apparently is so preoccupied by her break with Red China that she is in no mood for hard-rock negotiations on major East-West issues, American officials said to day. Fear that the Chinese Commu nists soon may be able to explode their own nuclear bomb is be lieved to have become the num ber one problem worrying the Kremlin. In any event, Secretary of State Dean Rusk is understood to have found Soviet Foreign Minis ter Andrei Gromyko singularly reluctant in the talks they have had so far to plunge into specific discussion of disarma ment and other critical issues. Rusk and Gromyko met Mon day at a dinner given for them and British Foreign Secretary Lord Home by United Nations Secretary General U Thant, This meeting was said to have been principally social. However, at a business session last weekend Rusk and Home were unable to get from Gromy ko any specific information on how Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev proposes to cany out his suggestions for casing ten sions in Europe. This also was true during talks Rusk had with Khrushchev and Gromyko in Moscow in August. The U.S. secretary hopes to make more progress in another direction when he and Gromyko meet alone Wednesday night at dinner. Rusk believes the Krem lin may lie willing lo get down to specifics on purely Soviet American matters such as ex pansion of trade, improvement of communications and inauguration of commercial air service be tween the two countries. Lord Home was having his own man-to-man session Willi Gromy ko at lunch today. They were ex pected to have a general discus sion of problems before the United Nations but shy away from explosive East-West issues on which the Russians usually want to get U.S. assessments first.

Grtenwood Ph. 382-1703 Decline noted IIWIWW from last year in farm prices WASHINGTON (L'PP-The Ag riculture Department's monthly farm price report shows prices in terms of parity for mid-September were down five per cent from one year ago. The report showed the average prices for crops and livestock , I down to 77 per cent of parity. In mid-September. 1962, farm prod ucts were selling for an average of 81 per cent of parity. The report showed a squeeze on profits for cattle and hog pro ducers. Prices for hogs and cat tle dipped between mid-August and mid-September while the price of corn, the chief livestock feed, went up. The index lor live stock feed prices was the highest for any September since 1956. Corn was selling in mid-September for a national average of $1.21 a bushel. This price was up two cents from mid-August, and it was 14 cents above the price in mid-September of 1962. Agriculture Department spokes men pointed out, however, that corn prices normally begin to de cline alter September as the har vest season comes on. Another development in the corn market situation came last week when the Agriculture Department re sumed sales of government-owned corn for domestic use from ter minal markets. A spokesman, reporting on this action today, said the govern ment had been selling corn at terminal markets only for export since midsummer. The price report Monday showed hog prices In mid-September averaging $15.40 a hun dredweight, down $1.20 from mid August. Beef cattle prices aver aged $20.10 a hundredweight in mid-September, down 30 cents from mid-August. Wheat prices, on the other hand, were pushed up by reac tion to recent big Russian import orders for wheat. In mid-September, the average wheat price was up lo $1.84 a bushel, a seven-cent gain over one month earlier. Average prices farmers got for crops and livestock in mid-September were down four-tenths of one per cent from mid-August, down four per cent from a year ago. But in terms of parity, the figure which shows the purchas ing power of the farmer's dollar, the decline was a little bigger. While farm prices wore down four per cent from a year ago. farm costs were up one per cent from September, 1962. Combining these two factors, farm prices in terms of parity were off five per enn! from a vear earlier. The cost of things farmers buy in mid-Scplcmber was reported unchanged from August. But (lie average was still high enough to set a new record for September.

The show of naval strength In the Far East appeared largely aimed at Asian public opinion, as a reminder that the Soviet Union has important political stakes in tlie area and the strength to de fend them. No Clash Expected No immediate clash was antici pated between the two Commu nist giants. Moscow, believed anxious to avert any deteriora tion in the conflict with Peking, was apparently taking precau tionary measures to discourage any possible Peking military moves. Russia last month claimed lhat more Uian 5.000 border violations had been committled by China and indicated the trouble was continuing. Moscow also gave a direct warning lo Peking to stop its "provocations" or face a "deci sive rebuff." The Russians did not spell out the nature of the rebuff they had in mind. There have been unconfirmed reports that Russia may be shift ing some of its forces in East Germany to the Chinese border. The figure of a "few divisions" was mentioned. No Movtmtnt Seen Russia has about 23 fully equipped divisions in East Ger many. There have been no dis cernible signs to date of any ma jor Soviet troop movements away from Europe and diplomats con sidered them unlikely at this stage. Trouble on the border between China and Russia involved two main areas along the 3,&00-mile border. Peking has reminded Russia that czarist Russia incorporated considerable Chinese areas Into what is now Soviet territory. In the northeast, the disputed terri tory involves land east of the Amur and Ussuri Rivers, leading down lo the vital Soviet port of Vladivostok. In the northwest, Asian minori ties are fluctuating between the two Communist countries on the Sinkiang-Knzakh border, causing friction and more recently border incidents. fVrf.Yl A h)y VV Vh'T$ Crystal ball gazing ia a pretty risky way to find values, old timer.

Miss Keeler, 21, was the mis tress of former War Minister John Profumo, who resigned in disgrace after admitting he lied to Parliament about the affair. She Is charged with perjury and conspiring to obtain the as sault conviction of Jamaican jazi singer Aloysius i Lucky) Gordon. Gordon was sentenced to three years in jail last June, largely because of Miss Keeler's testi mony that ho beat and kicked her. Gordon claimed he was be ing framed as a cover-up for a prominent person. The sentence was dismissed on appeal on the basis of secret new testimony which has never been revealed lo the public. Christine's roommate, Paula Hamilton-Marshall, 23, and their housekeeper, Mrs. Olivo Brooker, 56, also testified against Gordon and face similar charges of per jury and conspiring to obstruct justice. West Indian Rudolph Fenlon, 39, who was not available at the lime of the trial, has been charged with conspiracy to ob struct justice. All have been freed on hail. The three-day hearing In Mag istrate's Court will decide if there is enough evidence to send the four defendants to trial at Lon don's Old Bailey, the same court room where society osteopath Stephen Ward was convicted in July of living off Miss Keeler's immoral earnings. Christine's testimony also helped convict Ward, who took an overdose of drugs before the verdict was announced and died without learning of the convic tion. Informed sources said Scotland Yard pressed the perjury and conspiracy charges after listen ing to a long tape-recording Miss Keeler made while she was ad mittedly "high as a kite" on liq uor and tranquilizers.
