plowed through a potato

that was torn down.

10 Oklahoma Farmers
Return From Russia
New York (U.R) Ten Okla
homa farmers came back Satur
day from a 20-day tour of the
Soviet Union and agreed unani
mously that Americans could not
learn anything from Russian ag
ricultural methods.
But they likewise agreed that
the Russian people are eager to
see Americans, that their stand
ard of living is being raised
through hard work, and that the
Russian people do not want war.
The group arrived on a Scandi
navian Air Lines plane from
Stockholm. They were among 27
Oklahoma farmers who left on
May 8 for Moscow. '
The farmers and cattle raisers
expressed amazement at the
amount of work done by women
on Russian farms.
Cattle Raiser
Ted R. Warkentin, Lawton,
Okla., a cattle raiser, said the
proportion of women workers on
most of the collective and state
farms visited was 2 to 1.
"I only saw one farm on which
there was an equal number of
men and women workers. The
women milk the cows, clean the
barns and do all sorts of menial
tasks. You know Oklahoma wo
men wouldn't stand for that."
While mechanization of farms
and general scientific know-how
is far below U. S. standards, the
Russians seem to be getting near
maximum production under
their present system, Warkentin
said.
He said they have "three or

he described as "very good."
Jean Neustadt, Ardmore, Ok
la., said "peace doves" were in
evidence everywhere the dele
gation traveled.
"We found without exception
everywhere we went that the
people said that they didn't want
war," he said. "They said they
didn't want 'a-bombs, and in the
frequent toasts made to us
whereever we went peace was
the main theme." .
Neustadt said compared with
Russian women, Oklahoma wo
men are "soft." But, he added,
"we want to keep it that way."

Light Jet Bombers
To Remain Grounded
Washington (U.R) An Air
Force spokesman Saturday con
firmed reports that all B57 light
jet bombers are still grounded
and said they would be until
crash-causing kinks are worked
out.
The spokesman said the light
jet bombers have been ground
ed since about January. He said
this was "common knowledge."
A radio correspondent report
ed in Tokyo that the planes were
grounded in May after 30 air
men had been killed. The Air
Force spokesman said that there
had been "several crashes" be
fore the planes were grounded.
But, he said, he did not' know
how many airmen had lost their
lives in the accidents.
The Air Force spokesman ex
plained that the main problem
(With the B57 is that it becomes
hard to handle at certain speeds
which can be very dangerous in
a high-speed bomber.
Another problem, the spokes
man said, is an apparently faulty
horizontal stabilizer in the jet
bombers.
Diminishing Winds !
Kelp Fire Fighters
Winslow, Ariz. (U.R) Dimin-
ishing winds during the early
morning hours enabled weary ;
crews to gain their best head-1
way in three days on a multi-;
million dollar fire which by J
Saturday had destroyed an esti
mated 22,000 acres of forest tim- i
ber. i
The fire was reported virtu
ally surrounded by control lines
at 7 a.m. Wind had died down to
three miles per hour during the
night. i
Hope was expressed that the ;
fire could be controlled today, if
winds did not reach the propor-,
tions which in three days have :
fanned flames in the man-caused
blaze 40 miles south of here in
Sitgreaves forest.
However, the U. S. Weather
Bureau forecast winds of 20 ;
miles per hour which veteran
observers said would make it
difficult for fire-fighters to hold ;
their hard-won gains. Although '
winds reached 25 miles per hour
in gusts Friday, it is normal for ;
a calm to set in during the early
morning, according to the U. S.
Forest Service at Holbrook, ,
Ariz.
The picture was the brightest
it has been since the fire started
Wednesday and there appeared ;
a definite chance the blaze could
be controlled by Sunday, barring j
a drastic change in conditions. I
An estimated 700 men were
fighting the fire today.
The fire had burned over an
area about 12 miles long and ;
four to five miles wide.

Industry Shift to
West Coast Gains !
San Francisco (U.R) West;
Coast shippers were told Fri-;
day that an increasing indus
trial, shift to the West has re- j
suited in "the strange picture j
of western heavy industry pro
ducing for the markets of the
East."
"That picture . is becoming
ever more common,". Roy G.
Lucks, president of the Califor
nia Packing Corporation, said
at a luncheon meeting of the
Pacific Coast Shippers Adyis-
ory Board.
He said the industrial shift
to the West is gathering momen
tum and as a result, "the flow
of finished goods, has changed
its pattern in the last years."
Some 500 shippers met here
in the board's 100th quarterly :
session to study freight traffic
trends.
The board forecast a seven ;
per cent increase in car-loadings
for the third quarter of 1956
with a heavy 81.9 per cent in-,
crease in ore and concentrate
shipping off-setting a predicted
25 per cent decline in automo
bile and truck shipments.
During July, August and Sep
tember, the board said, an esti
mated 505,085 cars will be
loaded some 33.000 more than
during the same -period last
year.
