TOUGH FIGHT-Representative
Miller, Democrat, Of California who
is one of the best friends Govern
ment employees have ever had in
Congress, is facing a tough primary
fight next month. It's reported that
the election outcome is strictly a
tossup at this time.
Although he is Democrat, Mr.
Miller has great deal of influence
in the House Civil Service Commit
tee of which he is a member. That is
chiefly because of his close friend
ship with Chairman Rees and other
Republican members of the COM
mittee, who admire and respect his
integrity and ability.
FSA-The information and pub
lications division of the Federal
Security Agency is in for a drastic
personnel cut, under terms of the
House Appropriations Committee S
bill reported yesterday.
More than 20 of the 80 employees
in the division would have to be
fired, if the committees bill pre-
walls. Most of the staff is engaged
in preparing health and welfare
publications and information for the
public.
SET THE PACE-President Tru-
man has directed all Federal de-
partment and agencies to set up a
voluntary payroll savings plan for
the purchase Of Savings Bonds as
part of the anti-inf1ation campaign.
All Government employees will be
urged to participate in the campaign
by agreeing to have part of their
salary withheld for the purchase of
the bonds.
In issuing the executive order,
Mr.. Truman declared: Our ma
tional economic welfare requires the
widest possible distribution of the
national debt through the sale of
United States Savings Bonds to the
people and it is desirable and
proper that all civilian and uni
formed officers and employees in the
Federal Government should set an
example of leadership in this ac-
tivity,"

tions Committee, who has been after

says several Of the employees under
attack have been dismissed during

Henry Is "Running''

(Rocky Mountain News)
 WHEN PRESIDENT TRUMAN pitched him out of the cabinet year ago last summer, Henry Wallace hit the ground running
 So his announcement that he will be a third-party candidate for President did not startling news Henry had quite number of followers when he first started running. That was back when some people thought maybe Henry had something when he said we ought to trust the Russians with the atom bomb and court their favor by yielding all other controversies But time and developments have been disillusionng and more and more people have come to realize that Stalns aggression and imperialism of the pat tern as Hitlers
 So Henry's followers have been leaving him in droves. At this writing, Henry is running like dry creek and if he doesn't pick up speed before November he be charged with lettering.

 Even Henrys loudest champions of late they have narrowed down to the Communists and the frus- trates of the lunac frnge-do not claim that he has chance to carry single state.
 The most they claim is that perhaps in few pivotal states-where the contest between the Democrats and Republicans will be close, Henry may take enough votes away from the Democrats to enable the Repub cans to win.
 That's what the Republicans hope will happen. But judging by the way exNew Dealers and union leaders have been Hooking back into the Truman camp does not likely that there will be much of Roosevelt ian core in the Wallace effort

Agricultural Efficiency
(St Louis Globe-Democrat)

 Two kinds of imitation responsible for the rising spiral of food prices in this country The immediate and violent imitation, which has forced food prices to nearly 100 per cent above 1939 be attributed to the war world shortages higher wages and other economic fac tors But Louis Bromfied novelist and progressive farmer pointed out in address here there has been
 creeping imitation in food prices since the Civil War.
 There have been temporary rises and dips but gov ernmen statistics show that since the 86Os the trend has always been upward This is true he asserts because American agriculture has been declining while the pop- uaton has been steadily increasing In this country we have increased production not by improving the fertl- y of the land and the efficiency of farm operations but by expanding the acreage under production As result we have been forced to adopt government policies of subsidies and price parties.
 MT. Bromfeld is practical farmer, not theorist He had demonstrated on his farms in Ohio the soundness of his program for agriculture This program based first of all upon soil conservation Through g norant, wastefu and greedy soil practices American farmers have seriously damaged 60 per cent of the tions farm land Some of this land is beyond redemp tion large part of it, however, can be reclaimed hv proper conservation methods.

Billions are White Chips in Modern War
(The Denver POSt)

(The Denver Post)
 THE UNITED STATES, which was spending at the rate of almost 100 billion dollars year the peak of its effort has been told that it cannot afford the Marshall plan But the question should be- can afford not to?
 A Congressman identified only as "key Republ- can-he could be Representative Halleck of Indiana, the Republican whp-predct the initial appropriation for the European recovery program may be 70 per cent below the administration request He bases this the opinion of party advisers who "beeve the United States cannot spare much than 2200 million dol lars in food and other agricultural products during the next year without upsettng the entire domestic omy"
 The point of view expressed in that statement is a- most purely of middle west Republicansm It was this same atude registered by Congressman from the old isolation belt which produced the chief opposition to the 597illiandollar emergency aid bill Voting for the bill were 161 Republicans and 152 Democrats; vot ing against the bill seventy Republicans and II Democrats Of the seventy Republican noes fifty five came from the middle part of the country They repre- sent for the most part unreconsructed isolaonsts whom global war has taught no lesson.
