Montunu Wheut Cut
To Be 23.5 Per Cent


Official figures of the De-
partment of Agriculture as to
the 1850 wheat acreage allot-
ment reduction in Montana
were set forth in a report re-
ceived recently by Senator
Zales N. Ecton. These figures
confirmed the fears expressed
in July by Senator Ecton, when
he protested a tentative an
nouncement that the Montana
cut would be nearly "a per
cent.
The Department. Of Agricul-
ture is also considering the eS-
Establishment of corn acreage al
lotmentS and marketing quotas
on the 1850 crop, according to
the information given the SEN
ator, which indicated that it
is not anticipated that acreage
allotments will be in effect in
1850 on other feed grains, in
Guiding rye, oats and barley.
Senator Ecton pointed out that
there is no provision in the
law for making quotas on these
crops.
The actual reduction in the
Montana wheat allotment from
the 1949 planted acres will be
23.5 per cent, Senator Ecton
said, pointing out that the ac-
tual cut will be 1,313,194 acres,
the total acreage for 1850 being
4,265,806 as against 5,579,000
this year.
On a percentage basis only
two of the eleven Far Western
states will suffer greater than
Montana. Department of Agri-
culture figures indicate that
Colorado's 1850 allotment will
be 64.5 per cent of the 1949
allotment and Wyoming will
get 76 per cent of the 1949
quota, as compared to Mon
tana'S T6.5 per cent. The Sena-
tor also cited figures to show
that Montana's reduction is
somewhat below the national
average of 1873 per cent.
Senator Ecton has protested
the Montana cut to Secretary
Brannon, declaring that such
a reduction at this time will
jeopardize the entire agricul-
tural economy of the state"
and seriously hamper the eff
forts of many veterans who are
trying to get established on the
farm"

American Delegation
Declines 10 Back Loan
For FAC Rome Move
By MoIcoIm Lomborne, Jr.

The United States has no in
tention Of agreeing to a loan to
the Food and Agriculture Organ
tzation In order to finance the
United Nations agency's move to
Rome, 1t was learned today.
The suggestion, brought up
Tuesday at the conference in the
Shoreham Hotel, so far has been
met with silence on the part Of
the United States delegation.
But privately the delegation has
let it be known that it has no
plans to ask Congress for any
money to enable FAC to shift its
headquarters.
Following action Of the dele
gates Monday in turning down a
site in the United States and
picking Rome as permanent head
quarters. FAC have estimated cost
Of moving from Washington to
the Italian capital would come to
$1,50o.000.
The United States, however,
yesterday informed Commission 8.
which is concerned with FAC f.
nancial matters. that 1t would
agree, subject to Congressional
approval, to a temporary increase
In its annual outlay as proposed
by an FAC committee. This group
recommended the United States
share be increased from rs to ~
per cent of q 100000 annual
FAC budget. This would amount
to another 100000.
Ralph 8. Roberts, director Of
finance for the Agriculture De-
partment, in making the an
nouncement, warned that Congress
and the taxpayers will ind it
difficult to support raising the
United States contribution, If
other members Of the organization
are not willing to increase the
amount they contribute to assure
that FAC has the kind Of pro-
grams we all wish 1t to have"
Congress has set q ceiling Of
$1,250,000 on the American FAC
contribution, but the administra-
ton already has asked legislators
to raise the limitation. Mr.. Rob-
erts said the Government hopes
this legislation will pass during
the next session.
The same commission earlier in
the day took the first steps to
trim its budget by recommending
to the full conference that 1t meet
every other year, rather than an
nually. It also proposed that the
next conference be held In April.

tary Brannan, chief Of the United

ton, were made public from Emil

al Ladies' Garment Workers
Union, and Lillian w. Watford,

Father Searches
Borneo Bay for
Body Of Soldier

WALDoBoRO, ME.-A gray
haired dad came home after trav-
cling around the world and told his
notherly little wife he thought he'd
found the body Of their long-lost
soldier son-buried in a planes
wreckage beneath a Borneo bay.
Many months and many dollars
ago John Foster set out from his
Down East cottage to seek his
boy, Donald. 81, missing and pre-
sumed dead by the army after van
ishing aboard a Liberator bomber
October %, 1914.
Ironically, it was a Japanese war
prisoner-a member of the race his
son was hunting-who led Foster
TO the wreckage under the sea near
Balikpapan, Borneo. which Foster
believes hides his boys remains.
Sure of Location.
I'm sure that's where my boy
lies" said Foster with trace of
huskiness in his throat. Harry
Belcher. who used 70 be a flight
lieutenant and now is a civilian
government employee at Manila, is
working to have the plane raised.
When it is I'll know.
'I met several other people whose
sons are missing around Borneo.
We might organize three or four
families to go there to find their
sons"
This has been a quest of hazard
Gus headaches for the 55-year-old
former Massachusetts businessman
who had hoped to find peace in this
village when he retired.
I'm going to find our boy" he
said as he set out. He said it with
a quiet sureness that silenced
friends and government officials
who tried to dissuade him.
In his pocket was only meager in
formation, based on army records
concerning the lost planes sched-
uled flight and personnel. But with
this he flew to Australia and on to
Asia.
Travels Through Mountains:
He journeyed south through
jungles and over mountain peaks,
meticulously following scores of
false threads, painstakingly check
ing each faulty tale.
He slept in huts and under the
stars on a dozen steaming jungle
islands, risking the perilous wilds
of the South seas.
Then on Borneo came the first
real clue from the unnamed jap
anese who told of seeing a B-24
plunge into the ocean bay over
Macassar straits. The tale jibed
with sketchy government records so
Foster went to the spot and there
with the help of new-found friends
he found the splintered wreck,
So Foster came home through
India, Egypt, Italy and the British
Isles. his heart little more at
ease.
What will he do if the wreckage
yields the body of his son? Not
sure yet, the father said, but per-
haps they'd bring the lost lad home
TO rest beneath the Waldoboro pines.
