Fa rm, Labor Head This Years Issues Editors: This is the third and final of a series of dis patches on problems con fronting the new session of Congress. It deals with do mestic issues. By RAYMOND LAHR United Press Correspondent Washington IP) Farm and labor problems will provide the top domestic issues at the new session of congress, but disagreement over their sola tion may mean little or no action in either field. Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson wants Con gress, which convenes Tues day, to give him more dis cretion to lower farm price supports a proposal which has not met with any en thusiasm among farm state members. In fact, dairy state lawmakers are calling for legislation to force him to revoke a recent cutback in dairy price supports. There is disagreement among both farm organiza tions and farm bloc lawmak ers about how to raise farm income and to deal with crop surpluses. This situation has led some congressional farm experts to predict a stalemate. In the field of labor, the administration is asking for new laws to protect employee welfare funds and to safe guard democratic procedures in unions. There has also been a substantial congressional demand for such legislation, largely because of disclosures made by the senate investiga tion of improper labor and management practices. A bill to regulate welfare funds, like one already ap proved by the senate labor committee, probably could be passed this year. Other parts of the administration labor I program, however, have al ready drawn opposition from the labor movement and are less likely to get congression al approval this year. Here is the outlook on other domestic issues: Postal Rates: The adminis tration is carrying its cam paign for higher postal rates, including a four-cent stamp for first class mail, into the sixth year. The- house passed a bill for this purpose last year, and the prospects for senate approval have im proved. Civil Rights: Oratory will be heard from both sides of this issue but no action is in sight. The administration is not asking for new legislation this year. Public Works: Senate -approved bills for the Hells Canyon and Fryingpan - Ar kansas projects probably will die in the house. However, any administration attempt to cut back funds for other pub lic works projects will run into heavy opposition. Education: the Senate is expected to agree in principle with the administration pro posals to encourage greater study of science. The House outlook is more uncertain. Statehood: Prospects are still dim for passage of bills to grant statehood to Hawaii and Alaska. Immigration: Any congres sional action probably will fall short of administration requests for more liberal im migration laws. Natural Gas: Supporters of the bill to exempt intrastate gas operations from federal regulation have not yet found the necessary voles in the house. The senate is waiting for the house to act.

These include lying on a bed of nails, walking bare footed on broken glass and reclining on swords while somebody smashes a boulder on his chest with a sledge hammer. These antics are all the more remarkable because Os toja is a small man who looks as if a sudden gust would blow him over. "Blissful vibration," he said, can be attained by anyone. "One need only inform him self about the laws of the uni verse and work with them, not against them or independently as most people are doing," he said. Cosmic Harmony When you reach this bliss ful state you're in harmony with the universe and in tune with cosmic vibrations, Os toja said. At one time or an other, he said, we all exper ience this "cosmis harmony." But the trick, he said, is to become "aware" and learn how to put yourself in per manent harmony." In his trances, Ostoja claims to have visited Mars and Venus. "The people of Mars are not little green men," he said. "They are taller than we. And the people of Venus are round, how shall I say, plump." At his "Institute of Infinite Science" in Hollywood, Os toja said he has instructed hundreds of persons in yogi Summit Conference Appears Destined By DAN GILMORE United Press Correspondent London itP A summit conference between Western Leaders and the Russians, for better or for worse, seems destined this year. The U.S. government may not like the idea, but the pressure from its Western European allies to sit down and talk with the Soviet lead ers is now too strong to re sist. A survey by United Press Correspondents in capitals across Europe shows that this sentiment will become even stronger on the coming months unless there is a dra matic crisis such as Hungary j discrediting Russia. On Best Behavior The Russians, however, are expected to keep on their best behavior until the talks begin. From then on. all will depend on the negotiating skill of the Western allies and the real intent of the Soviet leaders. The common feeling in Eur ope is that there is simply no valid reason why talks should not be held with the Russians to attempt to end the arma ments race and the cold war ground early in 1957, well; before Sputniks began orbit ing the earth. Europeans, unlike Ameri cans, are much inclined to "conference" as such. In addition, a not of weari ness after almost 12 years of cold war was beginning to creep into even the most s t a u n c hly anti-Communist governments. Defense budg ets began hurting national economies, even with massive U.S. aid. "Let's Talk It Over" The Russians astutely re cognized the trend and played on the theme: "Let's talk it; over." And the music sound ed even sweeter once Russia demonstrated it had the mis sile know-how to launch in tercontinental 'rockets. j Neither- President Eisen-i Red Rocket Firing May Have Failed Washington (IP) Dr. John P. Hagen, chief of the U.S. vanguard satellite pro ject suggested as "a specu lative possibility" Saturday that the Russians may have tried '.o fire a rocket to the moon and failed. He quickly added, however that "we have no evidence that they did." Dr. Hagen discussed the ob stacles to a "moon shoot" in reply to questions about the fact that the Russians have not maintained their expected satellite launching schedule. The United States has yet to get a satellite into orbit. It now hopes to do so next March. A test satellite launch er exploded on the pad at Cape Canaveral, Fla., Dec. 6. Dr. Hagen said another test will hp made "fairlv hower nor Secretary of State soon" but he refused to say John Foster Dulles could re- whether he meant in the next sist this pressure at the Paris NATO meeting last month. The final communique men tioned only approval of a foreign ministers' conference but, very significantly, it did not bar a summit meeting. The feeling in West Europe is that the top level meeting will materialize some time during the summer and pos sibly in Copenhagen. Use Tribune Want Ads few days or weeks.

There, he said, he found a guru (teacher) who took him into the Himalayas and taught him the ancient yogi secrets. Ostoja said he came to this country at the invitation of the late Dr. William McDou-1 gal, then a Harvard Univer sity psychologist, to lecture on auto-suggestion, hypnosis and telepathy. He claims to have demon strated his prowess for the j late Prof. Albert Einstein and i T rf-.l Ostoja is one yoga who j doesn't recommend standing I on your head.

Sex Turned Down For Dress Outfits By War Office London nP) The War Of fice turned down sex, at least in uniforms. Officials turned a deaf ear j to a suggestion from an ack-; nowledged sartorial expert that the new British army dress outfit should be "Sexy" i to attract i. ore volunteers in-1 to her majesty's forces. The War Office is presently considering a uniform change. An announcement was expect ed in the next few days. John j Taylor, editor of the authori tative "Tailor and Cutter," i had some advice in the cur rent issue of the army publi cation "Soldier" on what the announcement should be. To attract recruits, give i them a uniform to attract gals "as they did in the old days, Taylor wrote. He suggested I this colorful ensemble for to day's Tommy: A scarlet jacket with shiny ; black belt, black trousers: with scarlet stripe down the; side, black shoes white shirt, a narrow black tie and a black ! officer's cap with a scarlet ; band. And instead of an over coat, Taylor suggested a dash- ins cape. Taylor said today's khaki attired British troops looked like "lumos on lees" in uni- forms he described variously ' as "horrible," "hideous" and "in the .worst conceivable taste.' ToJnf iBr-aoA that khaki i iOJIVl " " j might be all right for battle ; and other service wear, but he said that if soldiers wore "a sexy uniform like mine in public the British armyl would "attract every red- blooded man in Britain." But it looked today as if, the war office, considering j the new uniform issue, would j veto Taylor's suggestions outj of hand. "We really aren't planning j to build our army around so- called sexy clothing, one source said. WLL THE H0N5YM00N EW ?
