Gaitskeii Seeks To Delay Eden's
U.S. Trip To Debate Arms Matter
London (U.R) Laborite , wav for Britain to interfere with
leader Hugh Gaitskeii said today Belgium trade. Eden has prom
he will try to force Prime Minis- ised that future exports of sur-
ter Anthonv Eden to rjostDone i Plus arms wlU be banned unless
his trip to Washington unless he
calls a special session of Parli
, ament to debate arms shipments
to Egypt.
3 Eden promised yesterday his
government will publish "ah the
facts" about the arms shipments,
but he refused to consider the
idea of a parliamentary debate
before his planned departure for
the United States Jan. 24 or 25.
"The Prime Minister's reply
la most unsatisfactory" Gaitskeii
said angrily last night. "There
must be a debate at the earliest
possible moment, before the
Prime Minister and foreign sec
retary (Selwyn Lloyd) go to
America.
"The matter cannot be left
like this. I shall consider with
my colleagues what further ac
tion to take."
Eden Might Yield
Eden has a big enough major
ity in Parliament to ignore po
litical sniping by the opposition,
but there is about an even chance
he will knuckle under to Gait
skell's demands either by call
ing a special session or by de
laying his trip.
Lloyd was busy today confer
ring with British ambassadors to
Tialf a dozen Mideastern coun
tries, who were summoned home
to report on the arms situation
and other current problems in
the perenially troubled area.
The arms furor, which is being
exploited to the utmost by the
Laborites, began when it was
discovered that war surplus
weapons purchased in Britain
were- being shipped from Bel
gium to Egypt.
Violates Regulation! '
The shipments violated British
regulations, but there was no
the government of the country
receiving them promises they
will not be re-exported
Gaitskeii is demanding, how
ever, that Britain halt all arms
shipments to Egypt because that
country is receiving military aid
from the Communists.

McCarthy Offers To
Assist Candidates
Washington (U.R) Sen. Jo
seph R. McCarthy (R-Wis.), who
sat out the 1954 election, said to
day he will campaign this year
for any hard-pressed Republican
Senate candidate who asks his
help;
McCarthy, whose terms runs
until 1958, told newsmen that he
will "take part ... in any state
where these is a close contest
aud the Republican senator j
wants me to come in."
So far, he said, he has re
quests from candidates or their
backers in "at least eight states!"
But he would not specify the
candidates.
No Committee Request
The Wisconsin Republican
said he has no requests from the
GOP National Committee or the
Republican Senatorial Campaign
Committee, though the Senate
group has relayed some individ
ual requests to him.
McCarthy took no part in the
last election beyond expressing
his distaste for Sen. Clifford P
Case (R-N.J.), who was then a
candidate and had made state
ments against McCarthy.
This year, McCarthy said, he
will stress his Communists-in-government
theme in opposing
Democratic candidates. But he
indicated tnat if he campaigns.
on the record of the Eisenhow
er administration, he will do so
because he considers it "much
better than the previous Demo
cratic administration if that
could be called campaigning on
the record."
Record Would Be Belter
McCarthy,- a frequent critic of
the GOP 'administration, said:
"If they (the administration)
could get rid of the Paul Hoff
mans and the Harold Stassens
and the Milton Eisenhowers, the
record would be much better."
The three have been frequent
McCarthy targets.
Hoffman, board chairman of
Studebaker-Packard Co. and an
early 1952 Eisenhower backer,
was once head of the foreign aid
program. Stassen, presidential
assistant on disarmament, also
once headed foreign aid and
clashed often with McCarthy.
Milton Eisenhower is the

is President of Pennsylvania
State University.

High Steak Prices Due To
Light Fail Beef Market
Chicago (U.R) - If you've
ever wondered why prime sir
loin steak costs more in the fall
than in the spring, here's the
answer.
It's simply that more prime
and choice cattle come to mar
ket in the spring than in the
fall, according to the National
Live Stock Producer, a live stock
publication.
The magazine said spring is
when farmers sell the cattle they
have been fattening with corn
all winter. The bigger supply of
top grade cattle means the price
will be lower.
There's a comparative short
age of prime cattle in the fall
because cattle sold at that time
of the year have been fed on
grass all summer and are not as
fat as spring cattle.

ested parties here late last week.
" Representatives of the Grants

men's and civic organizations,
city officials of Grants Pass and
officials of Josephine county
adopted the resolution.
They asked .that Army en
gineers conduct a comprehensive

grams in the Rogue basin and
that the survey and planning be
made in cooperation with the
bureau of reclamation and other
interested agencies, including
the Oregon State Game commis

sources board.
The resolution asked - that
planning take into consideration
alternate methods of flood con
trol, particularly whether it can
be accomplished by dams on
tributary streams or must be
done by one high dam.
Earlier last week, county
courts of Jackson and Josephine
counties adopted a resolution
seeking information from Army
engineers concerning flood con
trol possibilities in the Rogue
River basin.
The resoliftions were forward
ed to interested congressmen
