Pre-Geneva Pressure
Being Applied by Top
Reds at U.N.
United Nations, N.Y. (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.

should be available by next

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-

long absence in France of Bao
