Capitalistic Collectivism Tried In Spain's Largest By FRANK BARTHOLOMEW United Press International Seville, Spain-lUPl)-A capi talistic version of commu nism's .formula for collectiv ism of farms is under way in Spairi's largest province. Results so far, at least to the eye of the casual visitor, would seem to be little short of miraculous. The province is Badajoz, the dust bowl of Spain for many generations. The program at its incep tion 10 years ago followed the classic first moves of commu nism. Arid table-land on the Extrcmadura plateau, to the extent of 323,875 acres, was taken over by the govern ment from private owners who had been dry-farming it as best they could. Here the Spanish formula did a complete reversal from phase two of the communist plan for requiring the peas ants to work state-owned land as employees of the state. The Spanish government irrigated the vast barren area by harnessing the Guadiana river to over 3,000 miles of canals and irrigation ditches. It paid off the original owners their non-productive areas in equivalent value of irrigated lands. All former owners were thus resettled on smaller area holdings, but with an increase in agricultural output of over 1000 per cent because of irri gation. There was enough irrigated area left over from this com pensation formula to bring in an additional 3,800 farming families to the newly-green land. They are still coming in. The population decline of Badajoz which had been go ing on for centuries because the land itself was worked out and dying, has reversed itself. The "Badajoz plan" will have room for another 3,200 farming families as land reclamation continues over the next eight years. A separate industrial phase of the program, which in to tal is by far the most ambi tious ever attempted in Spain's long history, uses the dams which have impounded 3 billion cubic yards of the Guadiana river for power as "EXODUS" ON SCREEN ONCE ONLY EACH NITE AT 8:55 P.M.

Stars of Ice Show Winter in Summer By VERNON SCOTT UPI Hollywood Correspondent Hollywood -IUPII- Show biz has its kookie aspects, even in the cool world of profes sional ice skating. To wit: The circus winters in Florida. Movie stars- take to Palm Springs. Rodeo rid ers spend the cold months in traction and baseball players head for Latin America. But ice skaters "winter" in the summer. Following a 60-city tour across the country in slush, sleet and snow, stars of the Ice Capades wind up in Hol lywood, home of the glitter ing show, to thaw out their chilblains. Their respite, however, is brief, barely giving the skat ers time to lose the blue tinge resulting from months on ice. After a few weeks vaca tion, in June and July, the Ice Capade troupe reassembles in Atlantic City, N.J., to begin the cycle all over again in what amounts to "spring training" in August. August Rehearsals For six weeks stars and chorus lines rehearse new routines in the famed summer resort during the cay and perform for paying custom ers at night. The show pro vides an excellent escape from those muggy New Jer sey evenings. This year the Ice Capades, still playing it cool, swiped a page from Broadway tradi tion in its own version of a frozen Cinderella story. You know the old one about the pretty girl in the chorus praying for her big chance. Then the star runs off with the guy in the sial act and little Miss Hopeful is given the starring role and becomes an overnight sensa tion. Well, it happened to Lynn (Patsy) Finnegan, a 19-year- rjnwi Doors llUfif! Show RfMRFRSfc .

Eighty thousand old New York beauty, last March immediately after the troupe escaped from the rig ors of Chicago. But the featured star, Ca thy Machado, did not elope with the seal trainer. The Ice Capades get along somehow without a seal act. Cathy al ready was married and in formed producer John Harris that she was expecting a little ice skater of her own. And, as happens in all good Cinderella storiej, pert Miss Finnegan had but two days to prepare herself for the big moment. Smash Hit The Irish beauty glided on to the ice and was an instant smash, so much so there was momentary concern that her torrid twirling might melt the ice. "I was delighted, the blue eyed brunette recalled. "But I must admit 1 was shaking inside. If it hadn't been for Cathy, who calmed me down, I'm not sure I could have made it." But after "wintering" this summer and the birth of Ca thy's baby, will Cinderella Finnegan's coach and horses revert to igloo and huskies as in the age-old tale? Will Palsy return to the chorus? "No.'' says producer Har ris. "There is no rivalry be tween Patsy and Cathy. They're both wonderful girls and we will have enough fea tured spots in our 23rd an nual edition of Ice Capades for both." All that is needed now is a socko finish to the Cinder ella story - the Prince. Patsy blew the happy ending bit by admitting there was no Prince Charming with a skate to fit her dainty foot. "Go?h no," Patsy said. "I don't even have a boy friend. I'm loo busy learning the skating business." Pen al 6:45 Starts at 7:00 v.. i mmm B L J id-: . M ONlw5eoe COLO by DE LUXE Outlaw Venence! LAND" COLOR CINEMASCOPC tons of foodstuffs from the new farms are already proc essed annually within the province itself. New plants include two linen factories with a third under construction; two cot ton ginning plants with two more being built; two spin ning factories with a total of 30,000 spindles in operation and a third under construc tion which will bring the total to 45.000 spindles. Other new manufactures include fertilizers and super phosphates for the new home steads, factories producing construction materials with the further extension of the Badajoz plan itself as initial customer for cement, steel and electric power. Historic isolation of Bada joz from the rest of Spain is ending with the construction of 850 miles of new roads and almost the identical mileage in additional rail line exten sions to carry the newly cre ated exports to market. Of especial interest to the visitor making the 150-mile trip inland from Seville to Terremayor, Guadiana del Caudillo and others of the new central towns, is the spirit of the people and the obvious reversal of the drain on the population which has steadily impoverished the re gion over the years. Each newly arriving home steader gels a 10 or 12-acre irrigated farm. He is furnish ed with a house and an acre-and-a-half kitchen garden. He is also furnished with initial stocking of farm animals. During the first five years he works under partnership con tract with the National Land Settlement institute and is re quired to repay the govern ment for his farming tools and livestock. Al the end of the five-year "screening peri od," he becomes a capitalistic farmer with title to his land, with 60 per cent of the value of the land to be repaid to the Plan over a period ranging from 24 to 30 additional years.

Edwin Durno (R-Ore.) of a little doubletalk. Their remarks followed Durno's recent opposition in Washington, D.C., to a bill providing $6 million for the Baker irrigation project. The House Interior Committee ap proved the proposal anyway. Irrigation district president Alvin Ward said the commit tee's minority report, signed by Durno, is an "attack on reclamation." Ward said Durno never in dicated opposition to the pro ject before, and, "in fact, is on record through correspond, ence as supporting the pro ject and made it clear, when he was in Baker, speaking at a breakfast session May 9, that he aws not opposed to it.'" School Children's Hearing Tested Portland - flJPI) - The Ore gon Slate Board of Health said todav it tested more than 175,000 Oregon children for hearing last school year and some four per cent were re-1 ferred for diagnosis and treat ment, i The health board said the most common causes of loss of hearing in children are en larged or infected tonsils and adenoids, obstructions in the car canal, middle ear infec tions, abnormal eardrums and diseases in the nose and throat.

The program, conducted by Scholastic magazines with the cooperation of the United States Information agency, was started last fall as the "Living Letters" tape ex change. Its sponsors, assess ing results, predicted even wider interest in the project in the 1962-83 school year. When the program was launched, Edward R. Murrow, US1A director, said "schools of our country can make a I genuine contribution to the development of mutual under standing with other nations." After an exchange of tape between eight girl "diplo mats" at St. Clare High school in Roslindale, Mass., and students at St. Mary's Secondary school in Accra, Ghana, Richard C. Wooton, a US1A aide, said in a letter to Sister Mary Cornelia of St. Clare's there had been a "steady stream of articles critical of the United States in the Ghana press and on the radio in recent months." But, he added: "The account of your tape exchange with St. Mary's is one of the friendliest items to appear there for a long time . . . Your government there fore is particularly grateful to you for your participation in the program."
