Secretary Forrestal was ques-
toned closely by Senator OMa-
honey, Democrat, of Wyoming, con-
corning the proba BILE effect of stead
lily increasing military expansion
on the civilian economy. Secretary
Forrestal repeated earlier state
ments that he did not favor Gov
ernment controls over production if
they could possibly be avoided but
he said he could foresee a situation
whereby some controls might have
/ to be applied.

lishments in the future might re-
quire some controls
Explains Revised Program.
Secretary Forrestal explained in
detail his revised program, esti-
mated at $3,48f 900, 900 for the next
fiscal year to increase the Air Force
10 Sc groups from its present
strength of SIS and to increase the
total manpower ceilings from l.
385 ,000 TO l,795,OO for all the serv-
ices.
He explained that the additional
II air groups would consist princi-
pally Of Withdrawing about 3OC
BIOS from storage. He told the
committee that Secretary Of Ali
Symington. as well as Gen. Bradley
Army Chief of Staff, and Gen
SpaatZ were free to explain to the
committee why they believed man.
power ceilings should be even higher
, than he himself suggested.
Il should like to emphasize. how
ever" he said. that all the chiefs
support the S3.48l 900 900 program,
but nevertheless regard the pro-
gram as military matter"
Secretary Forrestal said also that
the Joint Chiefs of Staff have not
taken anv action on the 1922 .000,- :
900 additional outlay approved by
the House for Air Force expansion.
The proposal was never placed be-
fore them, he said.

ForreStal said he approved the gen.
eral idea Of spreading out eXpen-
dltureS and contracts over two
year period as provided by the
House But he still urged that Con-
greSs should not make the ,addi-
tional 1922 10000 available at this
time because Il do not think it is
now necessary for Congress to decide
how much money will be made
available for aircraft procurement in
the fiscal year 1850. 1t seems to me
that the same considerations which
led Congress not to commit itself
now to a specific European Recovery
Program for 1850 and succeeding
years have equal validity when ap-
piled to the present situation"

Dairy Defendants See
Price War in Forced
Sale Of Surplus Milk

A "ruinous price war" in milk
would result here in the event farm
ers were forced to market their
surplus production as fluid milk, At
torney William e. Leahy predicted
in District Court today.
The attorney made his prediction
as he argued for dismissal of price
fixing charges against General Man.
ager Bruce B, Derrick Of the Mary
land and Virginia Milk Producers
Association. Mr.. Derrick. the CO.
operative, and seven Washington
dairies are named in an indictment
charging violations of the Sherman
Antitrust Act.
Mr.. Leahy noted that the Gov
ernment had charged the associa
ton with failing to place surplus
milk on the Washington market. II
this happened, the resulting price
war might force the retail price
as low as four cents quart, he
maintained.
Dangers Cited.
This would raise havoc" with
1900 producers supplying Washing
ton consumers and might threaten
health standards for local milk,
which Mr.. Leahy described as the
purest milk in the Nation"
Under long-St; ding marketing
agreements, surplus milk is diverted
TO such use as cheese, cream and
ice cream mixers.
Earlier, Mr.. Leahy argued that
the producer association acts only
in the selfinterest" of its mem
bers for their protection. Federal
laws. he added. are essential to
protect the milk industry, which
he said was the largest of all
industries in the Nation and does
an annual business in excess Of
s1,000,O00,0 900.
Conspiracy Denied.
Mr. Leahy maintained that the
producer group in no way" joined
in conspiracy.
The attorney criticized the JUS
tice Department. declaring that
common fair play would have
called for the Government to have
instituted a civil rather than a
criminal suit against the defend
ants"
Justice Richmond B. Keech. be-
fore whom the arguments were
made, also will hear plea of Chest
nut Farms-Chevy Chase Dairy that
the Government postpone trial for
another month
Should the court grant the latter
motion. then trial may have to 20
over until the fall term. The JUS
tice Department, through Special
Assistant Robert H. VIM, is eX-
pected to object strenuously to any
delay in trial, now set for May S.
Government objection to granting
Of either dismissal motion also is
anticipated, as ruling in favor of
either defendant would have the ef-
feet Of throwing the case out of the
lower court.
In such an event, the Govern
, ment may appeal directly to the
Supreme Court.
Other dairies named in the in
dictment we're Alexandria, Lucerne,
Richfleld, Thompson and Harvey.

1919 Potato Goal and support
Price Announced

The u. S. Department of Agri-
culture has announced production
goals for the 1949 crop of Irish po-
tatoes, together with a support
price at go per cent of parity. The
new goals represent substantial
cut in acreage. The national figure
has been set at 1885, 300 acres
about 100000 less than the planted
acreage this year. The 1949 goal
includes 1928, 100 acres for COM
mercial production, and us, 200 for
non-commercial production (less
than 3 acres). Delaware's proper
tion of the national commercial
goal has been set at 400 acres-the
lowest of any state. This is the
same goal as for last year.. The
major provisions of the 1949 pota-
to program are: ~ the crop will
be supported at go per cent of par
ity; (2) to be eligible for price sup
port operations, individual growers
must stay within the acreage goals
for each farm; and (3) participaf-
ing growers will, to the extent
practicable, market their potatoes
under the provisions of marketing
agreements. Department officials
estimate that the announced acre
age goal for 1949 should result in
production of approximately $50
million bushels of potatoes, which
should be adequate for all antici-
pated requirements.
Pasture Improvement Stressed

Calling attention to the possibili-

pasture is the "most neglected"
part of the farm, Under the Agri-

there are number of practices for
pasture Improvement. In Della
ware these are applications of lime
and phosphate and pasture seed

purpose of the Agricultural Con-
servation Program is to keep up

often the pasture is looked upon
as just a part of the farm where
