Gen. Clay Tells Troops
In Germany That U. 5.

D. t,s A,soeiossd Press

April Cen. Lucius d. Clay yes

The American commander in
Germany said Americas entrance
into the Atlantic Pact committed
her TO help maintain the peace.
Addressing nearly 5000 Ameri-
can troops. assembled in an Army
Day observance at this former
Wehrmacht training ground, Gen.
Clay told them:
You are a symbol OF our coun-
try's still-firm will to fight for the

The demonstration was the big

Berlin and the American zone to
mark Army Day. The displays
were in sharp contrast to the ls4s
observance. A year ago there was
no attempt to make a show OF

Gen. Clay pointed up Americas

ment would be 10 cents o dozen
This new support system would
be used for meat animals. milk
butterfat, eggs. poultry. fruits and
vegetables. These products pro-
vide three -fourths of annual farm
income.
The present system Of support
ing prices Of nonperishable and
storable crops-corn. wheat, other
grains. cotton, tobacco. peanuts,
soybeans, daxseed. dry beans and
peas and wool-would be kept.
This system provides for Govern
ment removal of the price-de-
pressing surplus from the market
by means of loans and purchases.
MIR. Brannan told the commit
tees the direct payment method
would mot only protect farmers.
but would give consumers a real
break" on prices.
He said he could give no close
estimate at this time as to the cost
to the taxpayers of operating the
new program. But he felt GER
tain it would be less than costs
under the present program.
New Method of Setting Prices.
The administration plan would
introduce a new method of deter
mining prices or returns which
would be assured producers. The
present program is based on a
parity" price system. with pro-
ducers, in most cases, guaranteed
80 per cent Of the parity price Of
individual products.
First introduced In the early
New Deal farm programs. the
parity system set up price stand
ards which, the laws said, farm
er should receive to put him on
basis Of economic equality with
other segments Of the economy.
In most cases, parity prices were
set at levels designed to give a
particular commodity as much
buying power as it had in a previ-
Gus favorable period. usually
1909-1914.
Abandoning the parity system,
the new plan would set UP a total
farm income goal-a goal designed
to assure agriculture at least as
much buying power as it had in
the first 10 years of the previous
12-year period. In other words,
the minimum income goal for 1850
would be the average buying
power agriculture had In the
1939-1s48 period.
Under this plan, the minimum
income goal for 1850 would be
SIG, ,234, ,000, 900. This compares
with a record of $31,01s ,000, 900 in
1948 and with $7.877 ,000. 900 in
1899, when most farm prices were
depressed.
After determining the minimum
income goal. the program then
would determine q corresponding
schedule of commodity price or
return guarantees.
The guarantee for an individual
product would be determined by
multiplying the average price of
the commodity during the 10 years
Immediately preceding by the ratio
of Cd the minimum income goal
to ca the actual average level Of
cash receipts from farm market
ings during those same 10 years.
For example. the ratio between

Plan Offered to Subsidize
Farmers and Cut Food Prices

$26 ,234, 900 900 and average cash
receipts of $40. $50 200. 900 for the
1902 period is 1.25.
The income support price for
wheat, for example. would be de-
ternined by multiplying this ratio
Of 1.25 by the estimated average
price of $3.50 a bushel received by
farmers in the 1909 period. The
result would be a support price OF
$1.875.
Avoids Flexible Supports.
This system gets away from the
congressional controversy over
flexible price supports authorized
by the Aiken law. That system
would authorize supports ranging
from so to 80 per cent Of parity
for major products and zero to
80 on others.
The administration price or re-
turn guarantee system would set
up much more favorable produc-
ton incentives for livestock and
livestock products than for crops
already available in surplus sup
ply or expected to become excess
sive this year.
Mr.. Brannan said the more ia
vorable incentives for livestock
should encourage farmers to di-
vert excessive acres from cotton,
wheat, tobacco. peanuts and other
war-expanded crops to grass, pas
lures and hay for greater live
stock production.
Mr.. Brannan proposed a list of
commodities which would be given
priority in use Of price support
funds. when the latter were in
adequate to cover all.
The top priority list would in
clude corn, cotton, wheat, tobacco.
whole milk, eggs, farm chickens.
hogs. cattle and lambs.

INTRODUCE BILL TO
BAR BIAS PRINTED
MATER FROM MAILS

WASHINGTON - CAMP A
bill that would make it unlawful
TO ship between states, import in
to the U. s. or mail printed or
mimeOgraphed material contain
ing false statements against any
racial or religious group, was in
troduced in the House of Repre-
sentatives last Wednesday by
Reps. Jacob X. Javits (R. N.Y.
Arthur G. Klein ID. N.Y. Ken
meth B. Heating (R.. N. ", Will
liam L. Dawson ID. M and Eu-
gene J. Keogh, ID, N.Y.
Announcement of the bill was
made at a joint press conference
held in Rep. Klein's office, at
which time it was pointed out
that sponsors of this bill included
members OF the Protestant, Catho-
lie, and Jewish faiths, and a
spokesman Of the Negro people.
The congressman pointed out
that laws making 1t criminal to
libel an individual person have
uniformly been held constitutional
by American courts, and that
there Is no reason why a similar
law aimed to protect racial and
religious groups should not be
passed and held constitutional.
Refuting arguments which have
occasionally been raised that a
group libel law would curb free
dom Of speech or press, the con-
gressmen related that the purpose
Of guaranteeing free speech and
press Is to facilitate the unimped-
ed traffic Of knowledge and ideas,
A ban on the dissemination Of
false, defamatory statements,
such as ritual murder libels
against the Jews does not inter
fere with free speech any more
than prohibiting the sale of i'm
pure or poisonous foods and drugs
interferes with commerce, they
said.
The bill would make violation
of its provisions a mlsdemeanor
punishable by a maximum fine of
81 900 and maximum sentence of
one year.
