MAIN PHONE 3-5345 1 Block East of Hawthorne Park Sunday, November 7, 1954 Aiken Says Demos Will Make Little Change in Supports Washington (U.R) Chair man George D. Aiken of the Senate Agriculture Committee said Saturday he thinks the Democrats have "too much in telligence" to make a serious fight to restore rigid high farm price supports in the new Con gress. The Vermont Republican, who will turn over his chairmanship m January to Sen. Allen J, Ellender (D-La.), told newsmen he felt the Republicans were helped more than hurt in the election by their stand for flex ible price supports. "On the whole," Aiken said, "the farm issue turned out to our advantage but it could have been used more to our advant age." Aiken said the Republicans were somewhat guilty of "fail ure to sell our wares." He said the Democrats are "professional organizers and propagandists" while most Re publicans f re "somewhat more amateurish at that." Aiken said that "of course" he expects considerable talk from the Democrats about at tempts to return to the former fixed 90 per cent of parity sup ports for basic farm commod ities. No Serious Changes But he predicted that the new Congress, despite its Democratic leadership, would make "no ser ious changes" in the flexible price support program enacted last summer. Aiken was qaestioned after Rep. Harold D. Cooley (D-NC), who will become chairman of the House Agriculture Commit tee, . announced that he will try to get the law changed to re store the former high props. Senate Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson (Tex.) also has announced his support of such a move as part of the Demo crat's program in the new Con gress. Aiken said he saw no signs of any farm area "trend" in the returns from Tuesday's ballot ing.
