In The
Dav's lews
By FRANK JENKINS
Prom Washington: i
There are contrasting opinions
this morning as to whether the
special senate committee will
make Its report on Senator Mc
Carthy BEFORE THE CONGRES
SIONAL ELECTIONS IN NO
VEMBER. The senate today Is debating
the Elsenhower flexible support
farm bill. It has just agreed to
put a limit on the debate and to
bring the bill to a vote on Mon
' day. The final vote Is expected to
be close.
Republican Senator George Ai
ken of Vermont says he thinks
that come Monday, if all senators
are present and voting, the senate
will approve a flexible support
system of from 80 to 90 per cent
of the more or less mythical stan
dard of parity.
Republican Senator Milton'
Young disagrees sharply with Ai
ken. He offered this morning to
bet a Washington correspondent a
client uuiuer Hint lie aim outer
supporters of the high and rigid
parity system can beat the flexi
ble supports bill.
Young comes from North Dako
ta, where wheat is king. Wheat
was the first crop grown there.
Huge "bonanza farms," ranging
from 3,000 to 66.000 acres grew up
in the early 1870's and these farms
were devoted exclusively to the
growing of wheat. It was wheat
that built North Dakota's cities.
Wheat is still grown in EVERY
North Dakota county, and Is by far
the state's most important crop.
Republican Senator Styles
Bridges of New Hampshire wants
the flexible price support system.
He says the present rigid system
. has piled up the huge supluses of
wheat and other basic crops that
are now in government hands.
He adds that if the present sys
tem of rigid supports continues
farmers growing the basic crops
will face tighter and tighter
ACREAGE controls.
Both Bridges and Aiken are
from New England, which grows
NO commercial wheat, corn, cot
ton, rice or peanuts. These are
the five big basic crops on which
the rigid high support system Is
pretty much based.
" Then there's Senator Morse the
Maverick, who comes from Ore
gon where wheat is an important
but by no means a dominant crop.
He attacks the Elsenhower admin
istration's farm policy and Secre
tary of Agriculture Benson, He
says Benson has crowded the real
dirt farmers out of the depart
ment of agriculture in favor of
non-farmers.
(I think we can be tolerant of
Senator Morse. He just HAS to
talk. If he didn't, he'd blow up
with a loud bang like a toy bal
loon when touched by the hot end
of a cigarette.)
With few exceptions, the sup
porters of high, rigid, unchanging
supports for the basic crops come
from states or districts where
corn, wheat, cotton, rice or pea
nuts are grown in HEAVY volume
by large numbers of voters.
Because continuance of high,
rigid supports is a SECTIONAL
issue, let's take a look at the
agriculture of Southern Oregon
and far Northern California. In
this area, we grow very little wheat.
We grow NO commercial corn,
cotton, rice or peanuts. Therefore
the present system of high, rigid
supports tends to Injure our agri
culture far more than It helps it.
This is how it works:
As high, rigid supports encour
age more and more overproduc
tion of the basic crops (none of
which we grow commercially on
a scale of any size) and as more
and more fertilizer and better
tnd. better farming methods are
4sed to increase the YIELD
PER ACRE of these basic crops,
t':e acreage of them must be pro
gressively curtailed.
As acreage of corn, wheat, cot
ton, rice and peanuts is forcibly
reduced the growers of these crops
will TURN TO OTHER CROPS
for the land they are compelled
to take out of basic crop produc
tion and as they do so they tend to
nut the land into crocs that OUR
COUNTRY GROWS as a regular
business such as barley, pota
toes, alfalfa, small seeds, etc.
thus Increasing our competition
and injuring our markets.
Already we are feeling this com
petition. When accurately analyzed, this
high, rigid support system ap
pears In its true light as a dis
astrous upsetter of the agricultur
al economy of our Southern Ore
gon and far Northern California
area.

Famed Emilie Dionne Dies
From Attack Of Epilepsy
MONTREAL Ifl An epileptic
stroke caused the death of Emilie
Dionne, one of the famed Callan
der quintuplets. Dr. Rosarlo Fon
taine announced following an au
topsy Saturday.
Dr. Fontaine, Quebec's leading
medico-legal expert, said the girl,
who died after three strokes Fri
day in Ste. Agathe, Que., had suf
fered from epilepsy for some
time.
"The epileptic stroke was
brought up by pulmonary conges
tion, particularly in the pituitary
gland In the brain." the doctor
said after a 1-hour autopsy.
New Senate
Atomic Bill
Fight Seen
WASHINGTON Wl Sen. Gore
(D-Tenn) Saturday predicted a
new senate fight over a compro
mise measure putting private in
dustry into atomic power but said
it probably would fall short of an
attempt to "talk the bill to death."
Opponents previously kept ar
gument going on the subject for
two straight weeks including four
all-night sessions.
The revised measure, hammered
out in four days of closed-door ne
gotiations ending Friday, goes to
the House for final action Monday
and will be up in the Senate later
in the week.
Gore, a leader' in the original
lqs-hour battle over President Eis
enhower's broad new atomic en
ergy program, said a number of
senators are "deeply concerned"
over revised patent provisions
which he called "icing on the give
away cake."
The proposed new patent section
would permit normal 17-year pa
tents on non-military developments
not made under government aus
pices. But for the next five years
it would require the Atomic En
ergy Commisson (AEC) to give
preference in granting licenses for
manufacturing commercial atomic
equipment to concerns willing to
share their patents, for a fee. This
AEC authority would be permis
sive in the case of research equip
ment, licenses.
' One Democratic and six Republi
can members of the conference
committee accepted this as a com
promise between the House pro
vision for unrestricted, exclusive
patents and the Senate stand for
10 years of compulsory patent
sharing. Sen. Anderson (D-NM) and Ed
win C. Johnson (D-Colo) delayed
taking a formal position, but An
derson said the compromise
"looked pretty good." Rep. Holt
field (D-Callf, who was out of
town, has said he would not ac
cept it.
There was no controversy in
conference over provisions author
izing a limited exchange of nu
clear data with foreign allies and
making a number of other changes
in the 1940 atomic energy law,
untouched till now.

Opinions Vary Over Early
McCarthy Censure Voting
By JACK BELL
WASHINGTON Sen. Fergu
son (R-Mich) predicted today the
Senate will get a chance to vote
before the November election on
the issue of censuring Sen. Mc
Carthy (R-Wis).
But Sen. Monroney (D-Oklai said
in a separate interview he expects
the intensilled "political atmo
sphere" of the campaign for con
trol of Congress to delay any such
showdown until late In the year if
not until next January,
The rival forecasts underlined
the wide-ranging differences of
view on Capitol Hill as a six-man
committee drafted to probe cen
sure charges against McCarthy
werjj. into recess over the weekend.
Yesterday the bipartisan group
picked Sen. Watklns (R-Utah) as
chairman and decided to bar TV
and radio from its forthcoming
hearings.
Monday the special committee
gathers again behind closed doors
to go over a list of 46 specific ac
cusations levelled at McCarthy
by Sens. Flanders R-Vti, Ful
bright ID-Ark) and Morse (Ind
Ore), with an eye to weeding out
charges that are minor or overlap.
The special . committee, com
posed of three Republicans and
three Democrats, also will have to
tackle some disputed points of pro
cedure before it can get to the
hearings stage. Still to be decided:
Whether the hearings should be
public, and whether McCarthy
should have the right to cross
examine witnesses as he has de
manded. The committee's unanimous de
cision against radio-TV coverage
The autopsy was described as
a formality necessary because of
the prominence of the 20-year-old
girl, and the fact no doctor was
present when she succumbed. She
died at Ste. Agathe Hostel for old
folks and retired Roman Catholio
clergymen.
Dr. Fontaine completed the au
topsy at 10:15 a.m. .He immedi
ately conferred with Mr. and Mr.
Maurice Girouard, elder sister
and brother-in-law of Emilie and
the other quintuplets.
"The girl suffered a stroke and
has suffered from epilepsy for
some time." Dr. Fontaine said.
"The pituitary gland was congest
ed and enlarged as well as the
thyroid and adrenal glnnds.
"They were enlarged beyond
normal size.
DEATH NATURAL
"So, you can see the cause of
death was very natural."
Dr. Fontaine's announcement
was the first official word that
Emilie had been subject to epilep
sy. The ailment never has been
mentioned publicly In connection
with Emilie until after her death
Friday.
Emilie's death fojlowed three at
tacks within 24 hours. Death came
at the Ste. Agathe Hostel where
the girl was a postulant with the
Oblate Order of Mary Immacu
late. Dr. Fontaine said "It is quite
normal for a girl of Emilie's age
to die of this illness."
The Girouards telephoned the
Dionne parents and quintuplet sis
ters at their home in Callander,
Ont.
The body was moved immediate
ly after the autopsy to a funeral
home. It was to be taken later
by ambulance to Callander, some
300 miles away.
An inquest convened last night
for identification purposes will be
re-opened at Ste. Agathe later,
an official said.
SHELTERED LIFE '
The autopsy was the last strict
formality following the death of
the dark-haired, shy girl, who led a
sheltered life although born to
fame.
Her body was moved under .po
lice escort 45 miles to the Montreal
Morgue. The autopsy, by the spe
cialist. Dr. Rosario Fontaine, was
set for 8 a.m., EST.
The girl's grieving family went
ahead with plans for funeral ser
vices and burial Monday near
the Dionne home at Callander,
Ont.
A dispute arose, meanwhile,
over a surprise . report -that- she
had been stricken with polio as a
child.
An elder sister, Mrs. Maurice
Giraouard. who arrived to take
charge of the body, said yesterday
Emilie had polio 17 years ago and
since then had been afflicted with
fainting spells. The sister ex
plained she was not familiar with
the medical term for the attacks
but believed they were epileptic.
Others who knew her also said
she was a victim of epilepsy.

Urging reconsideration of the
ban in a telegram to Watklns,
Roeder said the association "re
minds your committee that it is
Sen. McCarthy who is the subject
of your censure study not radio

As for how much time the com
mittee will need, Watkins and his
five colleagues all agreed they can
make an investigation and report
to the Senate in time for a vote

Ferguson, who heads the Senate
Republican Policy Committee, said
he Is willing to interrupt his cam
paign for reelection to return to
Washington to debate the censure
proposal next fall. He said he
thinks most other candidates will
agree to do likewise.
Monroney, one of the 12 senators
who voted against setting up the
special committee, said, however.
he thinks that' if the Senate fin

week and goes home, it will be dif

"I am not casting any reflections
on the investigating committee."
he said. "I am sure the members
will do a conscientious job and do
it without delay.

Pumice Firm
Leases Land
United States Pumice Supply
Company, Inc., announced today
it had completed leasing approxi
mately 10,000 acres In the Mt.
Dome, California ' area south of
here for exploratory nurnoses.
L. B. Clark, vice president of the
company who negotiated the leases,
said the area contains a
large amount of diatamaclous and
pumiceous earth which the com
pany hopes to employ in its pro
duction of various kinds of non
metallio products.
Leases havs teen made with
the Hammond Ranch on its Wil
low Creek Ranch holdings; Jim
O'Keeffe, Dan O'Keeffo, Leo Fogle
and Mary Porterfleld, for the pur
pose of carrying on further ex
plorations. The company, which headquar
ters in Los Angeles, has been in
corporated 14 years. It maintains
plants at Leevinir.g and Newell,
California. The Newell plant has
been In operation four years.
Clark explained that, although
the same earth can be found In
several other areas in the west,
locating mining operations in this
area would have at least two ad
vantages: proximity to the rail
road and to the U.S. Pumice Sup
ply Co. plant at Newell which will
allow consolidation of activities.
Wheat Quota

bushels compared with a quota of
193,662,000 bushels. The U. 8. a
year earlier had shipped its full
former quota of 261 million Bush
els. ' Increased production in many
importing areas coupled with
greater competition from some
other exporting countries not
members of the agreement are
said to be factors Influencing the

Federal Judge Refuses To
Rule Against Injunction
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The seventh full week of the
Pacific Northwest's lumber strike
closed Saturday.
It was a week marked by re
newed efforts of the Federal Medi
ation Service to find a pathway to
agreement an effort which failed.
There were reports of scattered
settlements, some added back-to-work
movements, some rejection
of back-to-work proposals.
Federal Judge Claude McColloch
at Portland Friday refused to in
terfere with the state court injunc
tion banning AFL picketing of M
and M Wood Working Co.'s four
plywood plants In Oregon and Cali
fornia. The Corvallls Lumber Co. Fri
day notified Its striking employes
it has a payroll of 135 that un
less Uiey returned to work they
would be replaced in their Jobs.
The AFL union there promptly
said it would resist by all peace
able means. The mill there has
been trying to run behind the
picket line but has been unable to
get an adequate crew for more
than token operation.
In Washington state, the Puget
Sound AFL council reported it is
prepared to spend "thousands of
dollars" to relieve hardship among
strikers.
In Oregon's Willamette Valley,
businessmen of Sweet Home and
Lebanon started circulating peti
tions asking Gov. Patterson to
Intervene In the strike in the hope
of reaching a settlement.
This governor's intervention
issue went into politics this week
when U. S. senatorial candidate
Richard L. Neuberger asserted
that the Oregon Board of Concilia

months, and Democratic candidate
for Oregon governor, Joe Carson,
said it was the governor's clear
duty to fill the vacancies and turn
the strike Issue over to the board,
Patterson has said he will act
on the request of both sides. The
state law setting up the Board of
conciliation provides, at one point,
for arbitration as one means of
settlement. The rtriking CIO and
AFL unions turned, this week in
