o Return off 90 Per Cent Parity On Farm Supports 'Necessary' 5 Washington U.R) Sen. Mil ton R. Young (R-N.D.) today warned his Republican col leagues "we are going- to have to restore 90 per cent of parity farm supports. It's a political and economic necessity." Another demand for a return to fixed price supports was voiced by en. Earle C. Clements (D-Ky.), the Senator Democratic whip. Farmers "would like to have back" that rigid price guar antee which was dropped by the Eisenhower administration, Cle ment said yesterday. As criticisms of the adminis tration's farm record increased. Agriculture Secretary Ezra T. Benson called together his top level National Agricultural "Ad visory Commission here today to consider new plans to. bolster sagging farm prices and income. The commission is headed by Dean William I. Myers of the Cornell University College of Agriculture. Closed Meetings' Its meeting was closed and the commission planned ho news conference or public report of its recommendations .to Benson, Agriculture Department offic ials indicated. It was safe to predict, how ever, the commission would not recommend a return to rigid sup ports on wheat, cotton, rice, corn- and peanuts at 90 per cent of "fair earning power" parity level. The same group advised jsenson xo arop ine rigia system in 1954 and approved the ad ministration program of flex ; ible supports. . The flexible prop system, ap proved by Congress in 1954, took te i. incc .... Tlonpnn insisting it is still "basically Court Opinion Favors Railroad Portland (U.R A Federal Court opinion on file here to day gives the Spokane, Portland & Seattle railroad the right to collect from the government full commercial freight rates on heavy equipment accepted by the line for delivery to the Soviet Union. From 1942 to 1945 the line hauled hydroelectric power plants, generators, and diesel en gines on its own and affiliated lines for trans-shipment to Rus sia. Although the government then paid the full commercial freight rate for the service, it later attempted to recover 50 per cent of the payments by de ducting that amount from bills submitted by the railroad for other freight hauled subsequent to 1945. , V The railroad filed 13 "suits to recover $130,000 in payments withheld by the government. A decision returned by Judge James Alger Fee said the fact that the federal government, for its own purposes, chose to bol ster the economy of the Soviet Union is no reason for burdening a private domestic carrier with a surcharge. He said the gov ernment's case failed to show that any of the? material had actually been put to war use by the Soviets. sound," promised last week that after consulting the commission he would offer congress "some thing additional'' to check the farm decline. Crop Land Rental Agriculture Department spokesmen have indicated the commission would disduss, among other plans, proposals to rent crop land from farmers in an effort to reduce surplus pro duction. The rental plan "is something we should have done long ago," Young said. He indicated he would press for a program of this type along with a return to rigid supports. .."This is the time farmers need high supports most," he said, be cause their income has been cut by a combination of sliding prices and acreage cutbacks un der federal control programs. Young termed "a bit silly" Benson's repeated claims that current farm surplus troubles are largely due to the rigid sup port program, in' effect for a decade. The main reasons for suroluses are "the postwar sit uation and our foreign policy of refusing to sell farm products to Russia and her satellites." the senator maintained. Clements said President Ei senhower stated during the 1952 campaign that farmers should get "full parity, not merely 90 per cent of parity." Most, farmers "would like to have back that Democratic per cent , which he' belittled," the Kentuckian said.

Mother's Moods Determine Atmosphere At Home When a person is tired and nervously tense, she is likely to be grumpy and hard to live with. This is especially serious when it involves the wife and mother. Here is how one woman met this problem. (Q) "A letter from what you called a 'sarcastic mother' inter ested me because she sounded so much like I did a couple of months ago. Then I discov ered some things about myself. First, that I wasn't being fair to myself or to fe HWnii mi . my family. So, Dr. Herlock I' had a check up and found my blood was very lpw. Now I am taking iron and feel much better. "Next. I faced the fact that I held the key to the kind of dis position each member of my family would have. If I went around ranting and raving, two to one the children would go quarrelsome all day and my husband would have little to say to me. Last, I realized that no body was pushing me but my self. My husband wasn't a per fectionist. He didn't expect a spotless house. He'd rather have things undone than see me sit and cry because I was so tired. So, I slowed down and now I'm fit to live with. - "Now I do things as they come. When I run out of steam, I make sure .the children are around, stretch out on the divan for 10 or 15 minutes and rest. I may do this two or three times a day and what a difference it makes. When I explained to the children that - this rest helped Mama from being so grumpy, they learned not to make : so many demands then. I hope you can pass this on to any mother who finds herself being grumpy to her family." Mrs. A. B. (A) This woman has learned the secret of efficiency and, at the same time, discovered . that one's disposition is affected by one' physical condition. Any man or woman who finds himself or herself being disagreeable will dp well to follow the suggestions given in this letter. One of the most important points is that the whole family was affected, either favorably or unfavorably, by her mood. When there are young children who spend most of their waking time with the mother her moods are the determining factors of the atmosphere of the home. (COPYRIGHT 1955, GENERAL FEATURES CORP.)

Neuberger Raps rn i" I r ramsansnip Astoria (U.R) Sen. Richard L. Neuberger (D-Ore.) has pro tested to the Corps of Engineers the "flagrant partisanship" of a recent press release by the Corps Walla Walla district purporting to show that fishermen, and not dams are detrimental to Colum bia river salmon runs. In a letter to. Brig. Geri: Louis H. Foote, North Pacific division engineer at Portland,; Neuberger said "this .particular press re lease attempted to embarrass the fishing industry over the fact that some members of this in dustry claim that dams often are a detriment to migratory fish runs." . The release in question was issued by the Walla Walla en gineers', office Sept. 2. It com pared escapements of salmon at Bonneville and McNary dams in 1954 and 1955 and concluded that the findings "again discount considerably the claims of the fish industries that dams on the river are a hindrance to the anadromus hordes." - Folk dancing is promoted in Norway by the youth society known as Noregs Ungdomslag, which, Jias more than 60,000 members and 1.262 regional branches. .,: . ; : BEWARE.
