Price Curb Can't Halt
Slump, Leader Tells
Farm Bureau Session
by the Associated Press

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Dec. IA
Allan B. Kline, president of the
American Farm Bureau Federation,
declared today that a new depres-
sion can not be prevented by resort
to price controls and rationing.
In a keynote speech before his
organizations 30th annual conven-
ton, Mr.. Kline said the biggest
problem facing the Nation is the
possibility of. another "boom-and-
bust" cycle.
He said the country is in the
midst of a great imitation"
Historically, without exception,
such inflations have been followed
by def1ations," he said.
Calls for Caution.
"1t is absolutely essential" he
added, that such a defation be
avoided this time. 1t would not only
ruin agriculture, but would have
repercussions for every one in this
country and every one everywhere. y
Mr.. Kline said proposals are being
made that the Government re-es-
tablish price controls, ALLEGATION of
scarce materials and rationing, as
measures for stabilizing the econ
omy.
Let us be little cautious" he
urged, about substituting the clum-
sy techniques of government con-
trolls for the glorious future of q
free enterprise system in this
country"
The farm leader said the present
imitation is monetary" in nature.
He said it reflects the fact that
currency in circulation and deposits
In banks have gone up from
$50, zoo, 900, 900 in 1889 to $1O9, ,60O,-
100000 last September.
Fav0rs Money Regulation.
Mr.. Kline said the problem must
be met by regulation of the money
supply rather than by controls over
prices. He urged the new Congress
to set up monetary study commits
sion to find ways of keeping the
supply Of money from preventing
both imitation and deflation.
He said no Federal farm program
will prevent distress to farmers 'if
we are not able to stabilize the
general price level without a great
defation."
Further, no farm program, no
productive efforts on the part of
farmers, can possibly create con-
tinuing well-being in agriculture if
the rest of the economy is tied up
In futile struggles between man
agement and labor, or is unproduc-
tive for any reason whatever" he
said.

Miss Nelson, Spy Jury Witness,
Daughter of Ex-House Member
Ex-FederuI Workers
President Is Sister of
Representutive-EIect

Miss Eleanor Nelson, who ap-
peared before the espionage-investi-
eating Federal grand jury in New
York yesterday, is the daughter of
former Representative John E.
Nelson, Republican, of Maine and
a sister of Charles P. Nelson, Maine
Republican Representative-elect.
Her father was a member of the
House committee that investigated
communism in 1880 under the chair
manship of former Representative
Hamilton Fish, jr., of New York.
Miss Nelson a graduate of We'll
lesley In 1927. was the president of
the CIO United Federal Workers
of America here before it merged
with State and county employees
into the United Public Workers of
America.
She became secretary treasurer
of the new UPWA organization in
1916, but i'll health prevented her
from carrying out the duties of her
Office. She resigned last year and
no longer is connected with UPWA
She is married to a man named
Soysing and now lives in Baltimore
Miss Nelson was employed some
years back in the Bureau Of Labor
Statistics in the Labor Department
She became active in Government
unionism and for several years
played leading role in the activi-
ties of the AFL American Fedora
ton of Government Employees.
The AFGE at its 1886 convention
expelled Miss Nelson and others
from the union for activities 'in-
imical" to the welfare of the AFL.
Shortly after that Miss Nelson
and the expelled faction affiliated
with the CIO to form the United
Federal Workers of America. Miss
Nelson became it's president, a post
she held until the merger with the
State, county and municipal work.
ers' group took place in 1916.
UFWA was generally regarded as
a left-wing union, although there
were never any official charges of
communism leveled against it. It
was only when the new UPWA was
formed that the group found itself
in hot water regarding charges that
it was Communist dominated.

The committee will decide within

The committee already has de-
cided to ask former Assistant Secre-
tary of State Francis B. Sayre and
Miss Anna BelR Newcomb to testify
at hearings next week. Mr.. Sayre
Miss Newcomb, his secretary in the
State Department in 1898; Mr.. Hiss
his assistant at the time, and Miss
Eunice Lincoln, the then secretary
of Mr.. Hiss, were the only persons
who had access to department files
from which the documents were
filched, Mr.. Mundt said.
Mr.. Sayre and Miss Newcomb are
due to arrive in the United States
Monday from a United Nations
Committee meeting in Paris. Miss
Lincoln testified in closed session OF
the House committee last week.
Tests Would Be Voluntary.
Whether lie detector tests will be
made depends on at least two
things, Mr.. Mundt said last night
First, the committee is still weigh
ing the advisability, of making this
move, and second, the tests would
be strictly on voluntary basis, be.

sentenced to serve from 16 months

ers before arraigning them.
Mr.. Blackwell said Justice Frank
furter had observed there was need
for such legislation at the time the
case was being argued.
The dissenting opinion was writ
ten by Justice Reed, who noted that
he also dissented in the McNabh
case. He protested that the de-
cision in the Upshaw case goes be-
yond the courts holding in the
McNabb case.
Joined by Chief Justice Vinson
and Justices jackson and Burton,
Justice Reed wrote that the
judicial approach" to such prob
lens must be in a spirit of CO.
operation with the police officials
in the administration Of justice
Reed Is Critical.
Writing that "today's opinion puts
another weapon in the hand of the
criminal world" Justice Reed said:
If there is prevalent abuse OF
the right to question prisoners, the
sounder remedy lies in police disci-
pline. in statutory punishment OF
offending officials, in vigorous judi
cial protection against unconstitu-
tional pressures for confessions, and
in legislative enactments for inquir-
les into circumstances surrounding
crimes by methods that protect both
the public and suspects-for exam
pie, an inquiry before a magistrate
with sealed evidence"
The majority opinion in the
gambling case was written by JUS
tice Douglas, who commented:
Power is heady thing; and his
tory shows that the police, acting
on their own, cannot be trusted"
Justice Douglas said the guarantee
against unreasonable search and
seizure extends to the innocent and
guilty alike"
1T marks the right of privacy as
one Of the unique values of our
civilization and, with few exceptions,
stays the hands of the police unless
they have search warrant issued
by magistrate on probable cause,
supported by oath or animation"
Forcible Entry Cited.
Agreeing with the majority that
the convictions should be overturned,
Justice jackson said he based his
decision on the fact that entry to
the building was forcible. He said
he would have seen no objection to
the transom-peeking method Of
gathering evidence, had the officers
entered the building legally.
Justice Burton wrote a dissent in
which Chief Justice Vinson and
Justice Reed concurred.
The police had said they did not
use search warrants because they
never had sufficient evidence until
they heard adding machines clicking
inside the house. ~
The dissenters wrote: "A prompt
