Wayne Morse (D-Ore.), said yes terday this country should not "spill American blood for Arab ian oil" in developing a policy toward the Middle East. He said that he so far has not been "convinced" of the need for the new "Eisenhower Doc trine." The plan calls for the use of American troops, if nec cessary, to protect the Middle East from Communist aggres sion. Another senator who voiced doubts about the president's plan was Sen. Joseph R. Mc Carthy (R-Wis.). who frequently has clashed with Morse in the Senate. McCarthy said he could not agree that Congress should "ab dicate its duty" by giving Mr. Eisenhower standby authority to use U. S. forces. REFUGEES RETURN London (U.R!

Monday, January 14, 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE SEVEN' Smut Said Cause Of $5 Million Damage in 1956 Portland (U.R) Smut Pacific Northwest wheat grow ers' public enemy No. 1 claim ed S5 million damages again in 1956. Dr. C. S. Holton, U. S. Depart ment of Agriculture plant path ologist, said in a report present ed to a regional smut-control committee the percentage of wheat graded smutty was down 7.3 per cent from the previous year's figure but the monetary loss was the same because in festations were more severe. Based en Replies The report was based on re plies of a questionnaire distrib uted through the Pacific North west Grain Dealers Association. Figures were compiled on a bushel basis from grain receiv ed at elevators in Oregon, Wash ington and Idaho. Another report compiled by the USDA Grain Division from records of handlers who sample each grower's consignment, plac ed the smut figure at 30.3, but it did not indicate the number of bushels sampled. Idaho First Nevertheless, other reports showed that the black fungus condition was worse in Wash ington and Idaho than in Ore gon. Idaho, second in produc tion, was first in smut percent age. Washington, the largest producer, was second. Dr. Holton's survey showed that Elmar wheat led the list in both production volume and smut percentage, with more than half of that variety graded smutty. However, the report indicat ed the future looked brighter because there was an increased seeding of the smut-resistant club variety Omar wheat, the report said. Need A Loan? For Medical Expenses?
