Benson Urges Quick
Congressional OK ,
Of Soil Bank Plan
Washington (U.R) Secretary
of Agriculture Ezra T. Benson
said today the administration's
proposed "soil bank" program
can be put into effect this year
if congress acts quickly.
A month or two of "avoidable
delay," he told the Senate Agri
culture Committee "might cause
us a year's time in getting the
program launched."
Key Feature of Program
The soil bank plan is the key
feature of the administration's
farm program which President
Eisenhower sent to Congress
Monday. It would provide for
overall payments, both in cash
and kind, totaling about $1,000,
.000,000. annually to ,farmers.Un
return, participating"-, farm ei r s
would agtee to cut corn, wheat,
cotton, rice and other : plantings
by 40 to 55 million acres.
Benson cautioned that, the in
ducement offered to farmers to
participate in the soil bank plan
would have to be generous. Be
fore farmers would comply, he
said, they would have to feel
that their .net incomes would be
at least as high as if they planted
their allotted acres. '
First Witness
He also said broad participa
tion would be necessary to in
sure the program's success.

Ike Said Prepared To Authorize Use
Of Atomic Weapons In Three War Scares
Washington (U.R) President
Eisenhower was prepared to au

weapons against Red China if the
Communists had reoponed the
Korean war or had intervened
openly in the Indochina war.
The President's decisions to
take such bold action were re
ported in a Life magazine article
based on an interview with Sec
retary of State John Foster
Dulles.
Walked io Brink of War
Dulles was quoted as saying
that the Eisenhower administra
tion had "walked to the brink"
of war three times in its first
three years, had "looked it ip
the face," and had taken "strong
action" which avoided war.

Guided Missile
V
Program Expansion
Aired by Wilson
More Advanced Arms
Listed in Fiscal Plan
Washington (U.R) Defense
Secretary Charles E. Wilson to
day disclosed a vastly expanded
guided missile ship construc
tion program as one means of
increasing U. S combat power.
He told the Senate Armed
Services Committee that more
money will be spent in the com
ing fiscal year on guided missiles
and other "newer and more ad
vanced weapons." j
For example, he said, the
Navy's shipbuilding program
will be "heavily concentrated on
new types" of ships, including
six more atomic submarines, the
first atomic - powered surface
ship, and 18 warships capable of
firing deadly guided missiles.
More 'Air Power
The program, he said, includes
construction of 12 guided missile
destroyers and frigates and the
conversion of five light cruisers
and a submarine as guided mis
sile ships. . '
The "design and advance pro
curement" of an atom plant for
a supercarrier also is . planned,
he said, as well as construction
of a sixth Forrestal class carrier
with conventional power.
In the air, he said, the empha
sis will be on the B52 intercon
tinental jet bomber ' and-supersonic
fighters such as " the Air
Force F101, F102 and F104 and
the. Navy's FBU and F3H.
With the increasing modern
ization of the Navy and other
services, Wilson- aidr -'.the.- over
all co'nbat power of our force
will Continue to . grow 'during
fiscal year 1957." ; . ' v
Closed Door Meeting
Fundamentally, he said, the
defense program in the coming
fiscal year remains unchanged.
j "Nothing has occurred in the
international situation . during
the past year which would in
dicate the . necessity . for any
major change in these policies
and concepts," he said.
, Wilson testified at a closed
door committee . meeting but
copies of his prepared statement
were distributed to reporters. '
At no point did he discuss in
his statement U. S.- progress ', in
developing ballistic missiles, a
source of concern among some
Democrats who fear the United
States may be slipping behind
Russia in the race to develop the
new weapons.

Near-War Crises Listed
The three near-war crises list
ed by Dulles were the possible
expansion of the Korean war in
1953, possible retaliation against
Red China if it had -entered the
Indochina fight openly in 1954,
and the early 1955 crisis with
Red China over Formosa.
James Shepley, Washington
Time-Life bureau chief, quoted
Dulles as saying:

for peace, just as you must take
chances in war. Some say that
we were brought to the verge of
war in Korea, Indochina and
Five Year Plan
To Provide Needed
Rooms Proposed
States Would Match
Government Money ,
Washington (U.R) President
Eisenhower asked Congress- to
day to provide a total of $1,250,
000,000 in federal grants over
the next five years to help build
badly needed school rooms.
He said in a special message
to Congress that the grants, at
the rate of $250,000,000 a year,
should be matched with state
funds to supplement local con
struction in the "neediest"
school districts.
Four Point Program
The request was the chief
feature of a four-point federal
aid program which Mr. Eisen
hower' said "should overcome
the nation's critical classroom
shortage within five years."
. The shortage now is estimated
at 203,000 classrooms.
' The total program proposed
by Mr. Eisenhower would
amount to at least $2,020,000,000
in federal aid to public schools
over five years. .
Incentive lo States
For the federal grants, Mr.
Eisenhower proposed a formula
which states "noticeably lag
ging" behind their ability to
support public schools , would
get less federal aid. He said. this
feature "should act as an incen:
tive ' f6r . the lagging states to
increase their effort."
He proposed that federal funds
be distributed "according to
relative need.". , " '
Mr. . Eisenhower also called
for:-
1. $750,000,000 over' five
years for federal purchase of
local school construction bonds
when school districts cannot sell
them in private markets at rea
sonable interest rates.
2. Federal backing to help pro
vide reserves for bonds issued by
state school financing agencies.
The President put no price tag
on this feature of the five-year
program. He said, .these " bonds
would finance Jocal construction
of schools to be rented and event
ually owned by local school sys
tems. "- : -: '-"'
3. $20,000,000 in matching
grants to the states over . five
years for planning ways to over
come obstacles to financing
school construction.
The President also asked for a
"major" but unspecified increase
in: funds for the office of edu
cational research. He said "this
has been ' a sorely neglected
field." ; : v ;
Help Essential
, He asked Congress to continue
providing federal - funds " for'
school ' construction in districts
near federal bases arid other gov
'ernment installations where
school enrollments have increas
ed sharply. The present law aid
ing such districts expires, next
June. . ' .
Although states and local com
munities are "substantially in
creasing their classroom con
struction," the President said,
many communities "simply do
not have available locally the
resources needed to cope both
-with .the legacy of shortages
from past years and with future
needs."
"Unless these communities get
help, they simply cannot provide
enough good schools," he said.
He noted that the recent White
House conference on education
concluded that federal aid is nec
essary, along with more effort
by local and state governments,
to increase the rate of classroom
construction. '
"The facts support this con
clusion," he said.
' Salem (U.R) Robert C.
Baum, Corvallis, has been ap
pointed by Gov. Paul Patterson
as executive secretary of the
committee on natural resources.
Formosa. Of course we were
brought to the verge of war. The
ability to get to the verge with

Would Fight To Win
The article said the President
decided to make "all honorable
efforts to bring a truce . out of
the negotiations then in prog
ress . . . but if the Communists
would not permit this . . . the
U.S. would this time fight to
win-. This meant carrying the air
attack to Manchuria." - The
President, it added, "decided on
the tactical use of atomic arms
should hostilities be renewed."

bottom" of the mining case de
spite "repeated cries of politics
and smears." He said he will
call Secretary of Interior Doug

For Campaign Purposes
Rep. Clare E. Hoffman (R
Mich.), accused the Democratic
controlled joint committee of
"bias and cowardly tactics." He
said it was conducting the in
quiry "for 1956 campaign pur
poses." Scott said the committee will
ask McKay why his department
granted the claims in the Rogue
River National Forest The de
partment under the last Demo
cratic administration refused to
grant the claims. ,
Hoffman retorted McKay will
be called "only after he has been
smeared all over the place."
All ' the shouting arises over
about 300 acres of timberland
covering the 15 claims. Patents
to the land were awarded last
year to Al Sarena Mines, Inc.,
of Mobile, Ala.

claims were disallowed by the
Interior Department in 1948 on
the ground that the land did
not contain enough minerals to
justify, commercial mining.
Rep. Earl Chudeff (D-Pa.) said
as the hearings were recessed
that the Sarena company ap
pears to have ignored the low
grade ore. for the more lucra

Sen. Richard L. Neuberger (D
Ore.), said the Sarena case was
a precedent for giving away the
national forests.
M. E. Volin, former Northwest
Pacific director for the Bureau
of Mines, told the committee he
received instructions from the
Interior Department in 1953 that
the ssayer of the claims had to
be mutually acceptable to him
and Al Sarena.
- He said he chose the A. W.
Williams inspection comoanv of
Mobile after Al Sarena had ve
toed two West Coast assay
firms. He said he received no
instructions to select the Wil
liams firm and was satisfied
with the selection at the time.
Greater Amounts Shown
The 1953 Williams assav show
ed greater amounts of metals
on the claims than were indi

and by the government.
Hoffman accused Chudoff and
a committee counsel of intima

because he did not give the in
formation they wanted.
"I'd hate to be judged bv the
standards these gentlment set
