(U.R) The Soviet Union appeared Sat urday to be applying pre-Geneva conference pressure on the West i i J,,,,,, t ' disarmament debate in the Uni ted Nations while making plans to blame the West if it fails. The most logical interpretation observers could put on Friday's daylong performance by Soviet Delegate Arkady A. Sobolev in the UN disarmament Commis lion was that it was a "pre- Gen eva" maneuver designed to build up pressure on the Western Powers. Sobolev insisted that the 12 nation commission should im mediately prepare a report on the record of the secret meetings of its subcommittee of the five major atomic powers. The record, 2,440 pages long, was published for the first time only three hours before the commission met. ' Assembly Could Profit The Russian, at wide variance with Western views, said he saw no reason why the United Na- Garden Notes By C. B. CORDY - County Extension Agent for Horticulture Tulip and narcissuo bulbs are planted in the fall and bloom in the spring. They are winter hardy and are not damaged by cold winter temperatures. Gladiolus corms on the other hand are planted in the spring for- summer and fall blossoms and are tender to winter cold A few hours exposure to a 29 degree temperature will . kill gladiolus corms. This, does not mean a 29 degree temperature but the corm itself must be chill ed to the temperature. As the corms are several inches in the ground they have considerable protection against winter cold and in mild .winters will come through with no injury. In order to be safe it is best to dig the gladiolus corms now and store them for the winter. Should Be Dried In order to be satisfactorily stored the corms should be thor oughly dried without, exposing them to the direct sunshine. This will take about three weeks at ordinary room ' temperature. As soon as the corms are dug the .tops should be removed and burned. This will destroy insects and diseases that may otherwise over winter in the tops. After the -1 corms have been dried place them in a paper bag and add a tablespoon of DDT powder. Shake so that each of the corms is coated with DDT Fold the top of the bag and store the DDT covered corms for the winter. This will kill any thrips that may be on the corms. An ideal storage temperature would be about 45 degrees but be sure the corms are not ex posed to below-freezing tempera tures. . :", tions should not debate disarma ment at the same time as the Big Four foreign ministers are debating it at their Geneva meet ing. The consensus was that the general assembly could profit from the Big Four's views. . Sobolev said that there "is a definite possibility of agreement on the basic questions of dis armament" and charged that Harold E. Stassen, President Eis enhower's principal aide on dis armament' questions, had cast "general doubt" on the possibil ity of an accord in the five-na tion subcommittee. U. S. Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., retorted that the Americans want a "real debate" on disarmament here in the United Nations but would" not stand for any "stampeding" of the UN membership by the Rus sians. Performance Thought Odd The Friday performance was long, and in the opinion of many delegates, odd. It seemed to add up to these probabilities: 1. Russia wants to put the West, by blaming it for the lack of agreement in the secret arms talks, in a bad propaganda light. This probably is to offset the propaganda disadvantage the Soviet Union is likely to suffer if, as is expected, it rejects at Geneva the West's package deal on German unification. 2. The Russians are not an ticipating any real progress on disarmament in the Big Four meeting and want it on the rec ord that the West refused to de bate arms reduction here at this time. 3. The Kremlin is pointing toward a major propaganda ef fort when the Assembly gets around to its disarmament de bate, now likely late in Novem ber, and Sobolev has laid the groundwork for a phony charge that the West is responsible if arms talks break down. Legislators Meet For Boundary Talks Seattle (U.R) Committees representing the Washington and Oregon- legislators met here in an effort to determine the boun dary, line between the two states. ' Although the Columbia river is the dividing line- a more ex act mark is necessary whenever a dam or bridge spans the river. This is necessary because acci dents during construction must be determined as to which state is responsible under the states' respective workmen's compensa tion laws, and the tax questions involved. The two comm'ittees were created at recent sessions of the two Legislators. Nevv School Already In Neew of Addition : Portland (U.R) Voters in Portland's brand-new David Douglas high school district have voted 323 to 42 in favor of a $325,000 bond issue for construc tion of 15 new classrooms, and band and choir room.' The new school opened for the first time last month. Superintendent Floyd Light said bids would be called in two. months and that the added rooms should be available by next September. . - DR.

Stevenson Says 90 Per Cent off Parity Required by Farmers Des Moines (U.R) Adlai E. Stevenson says falling farm income has made it "necessary" to set price supports at 90 per cent of parity on basic crops. The 1952 Democratic presi dential candidate sent a state ment of his farm views to Mid west party leaders winding up a two-day conference here Satur day. Stevenson said 90 per cent of parity, the former level ot price supports under Democratic , ad ministrations, "is certainly not unfair or too high." Support Not Enough But, he cautioned, "Such price supports do not by themselves constitute a complete farm pro gram." ' Reaffirming remarks he made in a recent speech at Green Bay. Wis.,-Stevenson 'said thatffor some commodities, especially perishables, direct production payments may be the answer to surpluses and unbalanced pro duction. A constructive farm program, he said, should include "incen tive" for the transfer of unneed ed grain acreage to conservation uses, and shifts from greater livestock and less cereal produc tion. "It means using our abund ance as an instrument of our foreign policy abroad and a wea pon against hunger at home," he said. . Party Idea ules Stevenson's statement appear ed to align him more firmly with the traditional Democratic con cept of rigid high supports. In his Green Bay speech, Ste venson expressed doubt that 90 per cent parity supports were "good enough" to solve prob lems and called for experimenta- Medford Safety Conference Set Salem (U.R) Four regional industrial safety , conferences will be held in Oregon this year, the State Accident .

American trucks would make up a convoy 24,000 miles long. tion with new programs. The conference brought to gether Democratic leaders of-13 Midwest states to hash out the farm problem, expected to be a key issue in next year's election. In other speeches Friday: Sen. Hubert Humphrey of Minnesota called on the govern ment to start buying pork "im mediately" to halt skidding hog prices. Former Democratic Secretary of Agriculture Charles F. Bran nan charged that the Republi can administration's farm pro gram has "missed the target." Landslide Victory For Diem Predicted In South Viet Nam i Saigon, Indochina U.R) Observers Saturday predicted a landslide victory for Premier Ngo Dinh Diem over absentee Chief of State Bao Dai when South Viet Nam chooses a new chief of state Sunday. Some 3,000,000 men and wo men over the age of 18 ar' eligible to vote in the re' dum. Many consider a te for Diem is a vote against the Ge neva truce which split the coun try and turned over the north ern half to the Communists. Others are resentful at the years long absence in France of Bao Dai. ' Has Army Backing Observers believe that Diem wouid win at least 85 per cent of the vote. The army threw its backing to Diem and a number of former opponents also have come out In his support. Britain has indicated it will recognize the results of the plebi scite if the referendum is fair. The United States, which has supported Diem, and France ""are exoected to go along also. Bao i Dai . "fired" Diem this week in an apparent attempt to forestall the showdown. But the Premier ignored his dismissal; his revolutionary congress "de posed" the absentee "emperor" last April. Diem has promised to hold elections for a constituent as sembly in the next few weeks if he wins. , SHOW ENDS TODAY Three youngsters are shown above look ing over the fir plywood "menagerie" which is a part of the Fir Plywood Jubilee show now being presented at the Medford high school grounds.
