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.

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

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.

As We Live
By ELIZABETH HU.tLOCK, PH.D.
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.

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

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

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
