'Soil Bank' Plan
For Wheat, Cotton
Farmers Debated
Washington U.P.i Demo
cratic and GOP members of the
House Agriculture Committee
fought today over a Democratic
plan to set up a supplementary
"soil bank" for wheat and cot
ton farmers.
The plan would enable
wheat and cotton farmers to
draw hundreds of millions of
dollars in cash subsidies. Some
Democratic sponsors estimated
1 the plan could add as much as
S500 million a year to the $1.2
billion the government now is
authorized to pay farmers under
the soil bank for reducing sur
plus producing acres.
Veto Expected
One administration source
said he believed it probable
that President Eisenhower would
veto the legislation if ' it ever
reached the White House.
But key committee Democrats
insisted that enactment of the
proposal was the price the ad
ministration would have to pay
to get legislation it wants restor
ing soil bank benefits to com
mercial corn growers in the
heavily Republican Midwest
farm belt. The Democratic pro
posal includes a modified ver
sion of the administration's corn
bill.
The Democratic bill survived
its first test Tuesday. The com
mittee voted 17-15 to begin con
sidering it at a closed meeting
today, instead of considering a
separate administration corn
bill.
Offered at Inducement
The Democratic plan was of
fered as a means of inducing
farmers to stop producing sur
pluses of feed grains, oats, bar
ley, sorghum grain, rye and non
commercial corn, on land forced
out of production of basic crops
by riding government produc
tion controls.
In broad outline, the plan
would allow producers of basic
crops, wheat, cotton, peanuts,
rice and commercial corn, to re
ceive subsidy payments for keep
ing idle some of the land on
which they have been producing
feed grains.

Reputation of Australia Shark Attacks
Sydney (U.R) ; Australia
has earned a world-wide notor
iety for its sharks because of
the publicity that has been given
to them whten they attack peo
ple. Actually, over a long period
of years there have been only
about three shark attacks each
year throughout Australia.
There are upwards of 70 spe
cies of sharks in Australian wa
ters, but the great majority are
harmless and many of the small
er kind are extensively used for
food.
However, the shark menace j
fort his season on Sydney beach- j
es is at its peak now. !
Shark meshing contractor i
Nick Gorshenin already has net- j
ted 24 man-eating sharks around
Sydney. These included a 14
foot whaler and two 12-foot grey
nurses.
Working under a contract for
the New South Wales state gov
ernment, Gorshenin patrols the
coast in a 40-foot trawler set
ting his 14 nets nearly every
day. He covers, on the average,
seven beaches a day.
No Attacks .
When joined in pairs his nets
extened to over, 1,000 feet, and
are kept upright by large cork
floats and marker bouys.
When a "catch" is made Gor
shenin kills the shark and dumps
the carcass at sea.
Gorshenin, probably the best
authority on sharks and their
habits in Australia, said sharks
are generally too frightened to
attack a. group of surf swim
mers. They will wait for the lone
swimmer who has missed the
wave to . the beach and is left
stranded beyond the line of
breakers waiting for the next
one. Oftent his swimmer will
find he has the horror of the
sea to battle with instead of na
ture's next "roller."
v Texas had eight capitals be
fore it became a state.

"Meshing operations provide
the best known method of shark
protection," he said. "There has
not been a single attack on a
Sydney beach since meshing was
introduced before the war."
