AFurmer's Market
For Tri-City Shoppers

Announcement of plans for Farmers
Market at which vegetables and fruits
raised in the Tri-C City area would be sold
by the farmer to the local consumer is
good news and commentator is due the
Kennewick Chamber of Commerce for its
efforts. "a. - .a-..r
The plan as told by Chef Durdle, a
member of the chambers agricultural
committee, will establish market with
an initial 20 stalls or places to sell produce.
The number of stalls can be increased if
demand for additional space makes it
necessary. @
81 One important feature of the market
is the fact that only homegrown produce
will be sold. It will enable local farmers
to raise more than one cash crop annually
because the market is near and the de-
mand should be great.
OF special Importance is that farmers
are being drawn closer into our commune
ties. Hanford, notwithstanding, agricul
tural stability is one of the greatest factors
in the economic health Of region. s.
It will also enable all of us to become
better acquainted with our farmers and
to perhaps learn of their problems. The
exchange will also be happy addition ITO
our Tri-City shopping area and shouN
prove popular for the many good bargains
it is bound to have.
There is big local market for local
farm products The problem thus far has
been to bring the seller and the buyer into
contact. A farmers exchange would solve
this.
The plan advanced is basically sound
and good. The area welcomes it and looks
forward to its progress with much interest

MiIesfones Of Progress

"A milestone In Tri-City fraternal or
ganization progress was reached Thursday
when Emmett T. Anderson, grand exalted
ruler of the Elks, laid the cornerstone for
the new structure which the Pasco Elks
lodge is erecting.
The growth and Importance of the
Elk lodge is Illustrated by the overwhelm-
ing attendance which honored Mr.. Ander-
son Thursday night when he spoke at the
Elks Temple. A large. delegation from
Walla Walla was present but the throng
was made up mostly of Tri-City Elks who
are active in their local organization.
Elkdom, as Mr. Anderson said, is big
business. It is also good business. The
lodge has physical assets throughout the
nation totalling 5000 millions. It has
1850 lodges with more than a million men,
bers. And throughout its history the or
ganizatlon has always worked to aid the
needy and underprivilege It has never
dabbled in politics.
Our local Elks are now building a
100000 lodge building in downtown Pasco
to further indicate the progress it has
made.
Mr.. Anderson's visit was tribute to
the local lodge and it was a gesture of
friendliness and goodwill to the Tri-City
area.
Local citizens appreciate his visit and
invite him back often.

Brituin's S Recovery

There Is every reason why the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee should study,
and study with critical eye, the plan to
extend nearly billion dollars of financial
assistance to Britain in the second phase
OF the European recovery program.
The books had been all but closed on
this project last week when an important
British official, Christopher Mayhew, For
eign Undersecretary, told an agency of the
United Nations that Britain had long
passed" the stage Of talking recovery and
is now hard at work on social experiments.
If Mr.. Mayhem had been bent upon sabo-
taging the aid-to Britain program, he
could hardly have chosen more effective
remark to that end For it is a remark
which plays directly into the hands of an
element in this country which suspects
that recovery funds are being given to
countries which do not really need help,
and to an even more important element
which would hit the ceiling if American
taxpayers were being called upon to put
up almost a billion dollars to support
social experiments in Britain or any other
country.
The chances are that Mr.. Mayhem did
not say what he intended to say, or that
he did not know what he was talking
about. At any rate, men like Secretary of
State Acheson and Paul G. Hoffman, ad
ministrator of the aid program, say the
scheduled s94O, 100000 is essential to Brit
ish economic recovery. In their view, a
program which has been highly successful
in the first phase will be defeated If the
scheduled aid in the second phase is not
forthcoming An authoritative British
spokesman Sir Stafford Cripps, has said
much the same thing
But these statements are not going to
be enough to undo the damage which has
been done by Mr.. Mayhem. For a doubt
has been raised which will be exploited by
some and honestly entertained by a
greater number until the facts justifying
continued aid are clearly presented. 1t is
to this task that the Senate committee
will address itself, and the members will
be well advised to go into this matter
thoroughly with a view to preparing a
case that will stand up under the attacks
which can be expected.
Meanwhile, having had our own un-
happy experiences with public officials
whose rhetoric is hardly matched by
their discretion, we in this country are
not in position to preach to the British.
Nevertheless, they will be wise to shun
repetitions of the Mayhem incident.

President Dorden's Report

One need not be an alumnus of the
University of Virginia in order to be inter-
ested in the report which President Col
gate w. Darden, Junior has made to the
Board of Visitors and, through the board,
to the public beyond. Such a document
has national significance. 1t chronicles "a
complicated expansion" demanded by the
times. THE simple problem of mass" the
author says, "overshadows almost every
thing" A whole flock of temporary build
ings have been added to the campus just
to give physical shelter to the student
body. But these suppementations are
recognized for what they are-"expensive
makeshifts" Permanent, durable, eco
nomic structures are needed to accommo-
date the growth.
However, it is not in numbers nor in
complexity merely that the university is
developing. The cultural pattern and
the spiritual influence of the institution
are widening. Mr.. Darden declares: THE
ever expanding range of the human intel
lect imposes upon every center OF learning
an increasingly heavy burden while giving
it finer tools with which to work. Our
difficulty lies not in teaching young men
the easy manipulations by which they may
earn their living, but in teaching them
values far more substantial and lasting
than those of the market place" Jeffer-
sons ideal of "the full characterization OF
education in the Commonwealth he con-
tinues, lis not yet here, but it is hearten-
ing to report that this university is helping
to bring it about"
It would be pity if it were not so.
The founder of the university desired it
to contribute to "the illimitable freedom
of the human mind" Yet his objective
was not completely expressed in that
phrase. The power which knowledge gives
to a man or to society is not an end in
itself It is trust to be employed in
service to humanity and likewise to those
principles by obedience to which human
life is made worth living Much of the
money spent at Charlottesville since Mr..
Darden took charge has gone into atomic
research, the fruits of which may be con-
structive or destructive as they are ap-
piled. Large sums also have been devoted
to medicine and architecture, engineering
and printing-branches of the university's
work which need no apology.
Mr. Darden agrees with Professor
Llewellyn G. Hoxton that learning must
be advanced as we'll as disseminated.
Throughout his report he stresses the
privilege and the duty of meeting the re-
quirement of progress as well as that Of

FureweII-ond Hail!

One of Hans Kindler's innovations in the
musical life of Washington has been the
series of Sunday Afternoon Concerts by
the National Symphony Orchestra. Yes
terday's was the last one of the season
that Dr. Kinder will conduct, although
he will make his final appearance as con-
ductor on March 16 when the Wednesday
series comes to an end.
1t may have been Tchaikovskys music,
or that DR.. Kinder and the orchestra and
the great audience in Constitution Hall
found themselves gripped and bound to-
gether in one of those rare moments OF
perfect enjoyment. But doubtless there
we're sentimental overtones, too felt but
not heard, provoked by the occasion and
the memories of some of the things that
lie behind the fact that the orchestra,
with DR.. Kinder on the podium, was
playing its 1,435th concert.
One of those things, certainly, has been
DR.. Kindlers leadership, not merely of
the orchestra but of the movement which
brought it into being and which, one feels
so confident, will continue after he goes
elsewhere and leaves it in other hands.
The Sunday afternoon concerts the
Water Gate concerts, the concerts for
children in the schools-all of these have
been products of DR.. Kindlers loyal devo-
tion to the orchestra as an institution In
Washington.
The Star suggests that March Is be
made a sort of red letter day in the life
of the orchestra and that the audience

For More Effective SPYING

The Central Intelligence Agency bill re-
ported to the House by the Armed Services
Committee presents Congress with the
difficult problem of reconciling open legis-
lative processes with the need for utmost
secrecy in regard to the bills subject
matter. Having recognized the need for
Americas entry in the spy business, Con-
gresS has no alternative but to implement
the plan with as little publicity as possible.
That does not mean that the appropriate
committees of Congress, in executive Ses-
sion, should not be given complete ac
count of the details regarding the need
for such legislation as is now proposed.
The CIA already has supplied the Armed
Services Committee with an explanation
of the bills scope and purposes. Most of
these details properly have been withheld
by the committee, but Chairman Vinson
has disclosed that in general, the meas
ure would, for the first time in our history,
legalize international intelligence on
large scale. The CIA at present has only
general statutory authority 1t was set
up by executive order under the Ma
tonal Security Act of 1947 for the purpose
of co-ordinating existing intelligence &C
tivites. The act specified that the agency
should have no police powers. Apparently
the agency now is asking for broad au-
thority to operate in foreign countries and
for means of guaranteeing protection to
its sources of information. A limited num-
ber of informants would be given sane
tuary by the United States If the circum-
stances warranted.
All of this spy business is new to this
country. In the past we have regarded
genuine espionage as shady practice that
was beneath our dignity and contrary to
our policy of open-handed dealing with
foreign nations. We depended, instead, on
what intelligence our diplomats and our
military and naval attaches were able to
acquire in routine ways. But we learned
to our sorrow in World War II that lack
of an adequate intelligence system can
leave us perilously handicapped against
designing aggressor. We had to depend
largely on the efficient British intelligence
