At least three deaths we're linked
directly to the weather conditions
in Washington state.

car at Walla Walla; a woman was
killed by a car on the Seattle-Ta-
coma Highway when snow im
paired the driver's vision, and a
workman was killed by a hoist at
Belllngham.
The latter was Axel Hortlund,
52-year-old millwright. He was
killed Monday morning when a
frozen two-ton hoist on which he
was working suddenly thawed and
dropped four feet onto his head.
He was employed by the Pacific
Veneer and Plywood Corp.

Then we came back to the Lincoln
Memorial and took some pictures
ot it. The driver drove us back to
Douglas McKay's office, drove
down one of the ramps and the
garage door flew open. He backed
into the basement and we took
private elevator up to the secre
tary's office. We looked around
little, and then went down getting

today, the speaker of the day is a

laughed a lot. They sure were
nice to us, bought our lunch and
everything.
After we finished lunch we went
up to Mr, Coon's office and got all
of the dope on meeting Secretary
Benson tomorrow. We visited the
FBI office but I'm going to save
mat lor my story tomorrow.
January 15, 1954
We went to the Federal Bureau
of Investigation and saw all the
guns, etc. they, had taken away
from criminals; we saw pictures of
the fellows that came in on a Oer
man submarine and were. told how
they were captured. He also
showed us all of the cities that
they had planned to blow up. The
lady that Is doing some of our work
for us saw one of these men who
came into her office and had a
letter typed. The FBI missed him
by a half hour. Not until she heard
the radio at midnight the next
night did she realize who this man
was. It was Haupt.
We saw pictures of Dillinger and
even a . cast of his head showing
where he was shot by the FBI and
the clothes he wore were in the
showcase. Then we went into a
big room where they teach the
men how to direct traffic and to
raid buildings.
We were shown how they Iden
tified the fingerprints and why our
fingerprints were au diflerent.
Then they took us to the base
ment where they have a firing
range and one of the special agents
shot a 38 revolver and a machine
gun at a target of a man, then lie
gave us the target and signed his
name on it for us.
We had quite a tour of the place
where they test blood and test the
foods 'ior poison on people that
have been poisoned.
We went up to the Senate Office
Building and saw all the pictures
and trophies in Wayne Morris' of
fice. Then we went to Mr. Alton's
office, who is the 4-H club agent
with extension service. He told us
all about the workings of .their of
fice and that, the building he works
in holds 7,000 people and there are
8 miles of halls. They took us down
to Secretary Benson's office and
we waited for him until he was
-free and could take our potatoes.
The photographer was there. Mr.
LBenson was sure nice. He auto
graphed cards for us and wished
us a lot of luck. His boys are in
4-H work too. .Then we went to
another office and gave some lady
a i story about the whole 'trip. 1

Per cent basic
commodities wheat, cotton, corn,
rice, peanuts and tobacco but this
expires at the end of the year, and
a flexible provision for 15 to 80 per
cent of parity is scheduled to go
Into effect. Parity is standard
said by law to provide farmers a
fair price in relation to the cost of
things they must buy.
Under Eisenhower's recommen
datlons, the flexible provision
would be allowed to operate. Many
farm state lawmakers want the
mandatory 90 per cent level ex
tended, however, and contend they
nave the votes to' do it. -
Sen. Johnston (D-SC) demanded
of Benson how Elsenhower could
carry out his 100 per cent pledge
under a flexible support system.
The ' secretary said - farmers
could "very well" get higher than
90 per cent parity income with a
llexible support plan, commenting
"there's no limit" under such a
system.
The burden of Benson's argu
ment was that the mandatory 90
per cent supports encourage ruin
ous surpluses which may destroy
the whole machinery for agricul
tural support.
Flexible, supports, he said, will
make the farmers more prosper
ous in the end by shifting produc
tion into the crops which market
conditions show to be the most
profitable.
But most of the senators who
questioned him indicated opposi
tion to the flexible supports.
Johnston and Sen. EUender CD-
La) argued that firm production
controls were the way to make
high'1 level supports -work. They
minted to tobaccoa saying It car
ries 90 per cent support but has
not produced big surpluses be
cause the farmers have voted for
strict controls.
Benson, however, said tobacco
was a special case because It
grows well only in special soils
and certam areas, so mat produc
tion limitations can be effective.
And he made the point that
acreage or marketing quotas have
not been too effective In the past
in cutting production. Farmers
can get around this, he said, by
tilling the reduced acreage more
intensively and scientifically.
Ellender inquired how much of
the farm program sent to Congres
bV Elsenhower originated with
Benson.
The secretary said the President
adopted a large part of his de
partment's final recommendations
on the program. However, he said
the program was worked out in
consultation with hundreds of or
ganizations and consultants, and
that the President sat In on some
long sessions at which it was
worked on and played an "impor
tant part" in the final product.
Chairman Aiken (R-Vt) of the
committee billed Benson's testi
mony as "an outlook for agriculture."

WASHINOTON 11 Secretary
of State Dulles said Monday Red
China fails to qualify for mem
bership in the United Nations be
cause it does not respect "the
elemental decencies of internation
al conduct."
Dulles spoke out in a prepared
statement to a Senate foreign rela
tions subcommittee which began
considering possible ways ol
amending the United Nations
charter.
Sen. Wiley (R-Wls), chairman 0:
tne committee, agreed with Dul
les in a statement that the U.N.
bad "shortcomings and weaknesses."
But Wiley said proposals to
amend the U.N. charter, as called
for under the charter Itself, should
be aimed at preserving and
strengthening the International or
ganizationnot at undercutting it
or wiping it out.
Dulles, suggesting some possible
charter revisions the Senate might
like to consider, said a "special
organ" might be created in line
with President Elsenhower's
atoms-for-peace proposal.
ARMAMENT '
This U.N. agency, Dulles said,
could "deal permanently with the
problem of armament which car
ries so hideous a threat to the
hopes of the peoples expressed in
the preamble to the charter."
Dulles then referred to "the
President's epoch-making propos
al of Dec. 8, 1953, to the United
Nations suggesting the creation of
an International atomic energy
agency."
Under the President's proposal,
nations like the United States and
Russia would contribute atomic
material and knowledge to
atomic energy pool for peaceful
purposes. The idea was proposed
as a possible means of ironing out
differences arising from the atom
ic arms race a .sort of peacetime
attack on the Cold War problem
Dulles and Soviet Ambassador
Oeorgi M. Zarubln have held one
conference aimed . at setting
time, place and agenda for talks
on tne Elsenhower proposal-
Dulles, in his statement to the
committee, said he must admit
the high hopes of those who found
the U.N. at San Francisco In 1945
nave not been realized. He said
there were" two reasons: Over
optimism on all'-sides at the start,
and Soviet lack of cooperation to
the point of violating "the spirit
and Indeed the language of the
cnarbci. -
Nevertheless, the secretary said,
the U.N. "has a record of con-
splcious accomplishment." Among
these he listed the israen-Aran
armistice, withdrawal of Soviet
forces from Iran, aid to Commu
nist-threatened Greece, creation of
the Republic of Korea and the
Republic of Indonesia, creation of
tne- state ot Lioya ana -enecuve
resistance to the armed aggres
sion In Korea."
WEAKNESS '
Dulles said "the greatest weak
ness" of the u. N. charter was
the Security Council's "inability to
discharge its 'primary responsiou
lty for the maintenance of inter
national peace and security'."
This inability, he sata, arises
principally from the Soviet's fre
quent use of the1 veto power.
The soviet veto, ne saia, nas
excluded from the U. N. "family
of nations" Austria, Cambodia,
Ceylon, Finland, Eire, Italy, Jap
an, Jordan, south Korea, i,aos,
Libya, Nepal, Portugal and Vietnam.
Dulles stressed that the U. n.
must keen its "universality."
Otherwise he said that is, if It
were restricted only to nations
which got along together the U.
N. would take on "the character
of an alliance."
He commented:
"It is, of course, unlikely that
there will be universality in the
complete and literal sense, . .
"Unfortunately, there are gov
ernments or rulers who do not
respect the elemental decencies of
International conduct, so that they
can properly be brought into the
organized family of nations.
"That is illustrated by the re
gime which now rules the China
mainland."
