Poland Plans Farm Project WARSAW Wl A drastic shake up is on the way for Communist ruled Poland's state farms, the Agriculture Ministry has an nounced. More than two million acres of poor quality land farmed by the state will be sold to private own ers or put under timber. Agricul tural experts now working as min istry officials will be sent to run remaining state farms at pay rates unusually high for Poland. The two million acres are more than a tenth of stale farm land. Much of the rest will be turned over to collectives sharing profits with the state. State farms, unlike collectives. employ regular labor at fixed wages. They have always had trouble getting workers.- The ministry said the farms will be able to choose their own schedules and stop trying to grow unprofitable products. from the American delegation. In formed sources said Secretary of State Dulles feels this isn't the time to expand SEATO militar ily, geographically or economical ly. These sources added Dulles have nothing new to propose in the way of economic aid for the Asian members. In the opening session, the American secretary told his col leagues stepped-up Red propa ganda blasts against SEATO over the past few days indicated "there may be new aggressive Commu nist plans for this area." Dulles said the Communist word attacks on the alliance are seven times as heavy as those that preceded the meeting last year. Commerce Minister N.M.A. Oi- zilbash of Pakistan declared Asian pact members are not receiving enough economic aid in the face of recession and aid offers from the Communists. "There is a growing feeling among them that the aid they have received has neither been commensurate with their treaty obligations nor is it in adequate proportion to the aid received by neutralists from both camps," he said. French Foreign Minister Chris tian Pineau also called for bolster ing the economies of the Asian members of the. pact the Philip pines, Thailand and Pakistan. "Our efforts would be futile if they were limited to the military field alone," he said. "Indeed, it is in the economic and social fields that the Communist world challenges and will increasingly challenge the world." Philippine President Carlos P. Garcia added his appeal for in creased economic aid, declaring that "within the treaty area arc millions of people who would like to live a life of dignity, comfort and ever enlarging freedom.

Jimmie West, 15, Is held at the county parental home. There is no charge against him. He is a big boy 230 pounds, 5 feet 9. One teacher said he was quarrel some and acted like a 6-year-old. He was transferred from North east High to Westport three weeks ago, mostly to get him away from the crowd he'd been running with. He had the knife at Northeast, one of the main trouble spots in a recent outbreak of rowdyism in the Kansas City schools. 'He took me down to a store and showed me the knives and said that people that didn't have them might get beat up," said Jimmie's mother. "I bought it for him for his protection after school. He prom ised me he woman t pull it out in school. He s the only kid we got and we hoped he'd try to be something.

It German cost $6. The trouble at Westport started Friday. West said he accidentally bumped into Gant, who is two inches taller but almost 100 pounds lighter. "He followed me," West said. "He told me he'd whip me if I didn't apologize. I told him if he wanted to fight, okay, but I wouldn't fight in school." At noontime in a basement corridor West passed by a line of pupils waiting at the cafeteria. This time Gant bumped into him. " I said: "Lay off, will you, West related. He nid: 'Now you're getting tough, huh I told- him: 'You can call it that if you want to. He pulled a wrist watch off his arm, handed it to another boy and struck me in the mouth with his fist. In fact, he hit me sev eral times and knocked me up against the lockers." West reached in the left front pocket of his blue jeans for his knife. "1 don't remember trying to stab him," Jimmie said. "He mny have got stubbed as he attempted to hit me." Police questioned two other boys in the corridor crowd and they told substantially the same story. Dr. Richard Ball, Westport prin cipal, said neither of the boys was a discipline problem.

He stated tha' the program is backed by industry, religion, la bor and the community, and added that the committee's possible tar get date for enforcing the closing would be Easter Sunday.
