Noyes said that Prof. Little of the

lust returned from India stressed
the fact that the United States was
rapidly losing the propaganda war
in Asia-that India and China were
anti-U.S.. Moves said that his own
impression from talking with people

feeling that a general war was not
too far away, that these are serious
times and business as usual is not
likely to continue.

Civilian Defense Council, deplored
the lack of interest in the Coun-

STATEHOOD
IS PLANNED
Continued from Page One)

He said that in Alaska, the pos
sibility exists for one of the finest
pulpwood industries anywhere in
the world" adding that q great in
dustry will be developed il contem-
plated leases in the Tongass Ma
tional Forest can be made.
Anderson said it was true, as
Senator Stennis (D-Miss) noted
yesterday, that the population of
Alaska declined between 1900 and
1880. But he declared it might have
been different if Alaska had been
a state.
Buffers Argument
He took issue with a statement
by Senator Butler (R-Neb), that
about half the present population
of Alaska is due to government en-
ployment.
Anderson said that out Of popu-
lation OF 10000, only 12064 are
government workers" With their
families, he said. they might make
up about one third of the territory's
population.
He also disputed Buffers view that
if Alaska were admitted to state
hood, laboring groups would send
two radical-type Senator's to Con-
gress.
Alaska's Election Trends
Anderson said that Alaska gener-
ally reflects the election trends in
the United States.
Were trying to say around the
world that we believe in Democratic
processes" Anderson said, land yet
we can't even have a vote on this
motion"
1--WE owe it to ourselves to vote
on the motion" he said, then pass
the two statehood bills land add
two new stars to our flag"
Senator Holland (D-Fla), at the
conclusion of Ander5on's speech,
told the Senate Il fully approved"
what Anderson said.

whether the United Nations troops
should bomb across the Manchurian
border is one for the United Nations
to decide
A reporter asked when this coun-
try should expect about mobiliza
ton on the home front-tightened
controls, possibly price and wage
controls.
Mr.. Truman replied that those
matters are being given careful
consideration.
Macarthur Criticism
Asked about criticism of Mac
Arthur growing out of the Chinese
Communist invasion across + the
Manchurian border, the President
said there are always people who
are for man when he's winning
and who are ready to jump on him
when there are setbacks.
Macarthur, he said, has done a
good job.
A reporter said there had been
criticism that Macarthur exceeded
his authority and went beyond the
point in Korea he was supposed
to go.
FormOsa Issue
General Macarthur, the President
declared, did nothing of the kind.
The President also made clear
that the policy against accepting
the offer of Nationalist Chinese
troops has not changed.
The offer was not accepted, he
said, in the hope that such a
course would prevent involvement
of the world in a third world war.
That policy, he said, continues.
He said it still is the policy to
keep Formosa neutralized.

partment of Health which receives
an allotment of 100000 yearly for
these projects.

U. 5. Envoy in Prague
Honors MasaykU Under
Eyes Of Czech Police
By the Associated Press

PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia, Mar.
American Ambassador Ellis o.
Briggs unveiled a bronze plaque
today in observation of the Tooth
anniversary of the birth OF
Thomas G. Masaryk, founder and
first President of Czechoslovakia.
The American ceremony took
place at the United States Infor-
nation Service library. Hundreds
of Czechs. under the watchful
eyes of uniformed police and
plainclothesmen, crowded the
streets around the building to
catch a glimpse of the ceremony.
The Communist leaders of the
country. in keeping with their
policy of belittling the memory
of the man who advocated closer
ties with the West, let the oc-
casion pass without any public
celebrations.
Contrast With Stain Fete.
| This was in marked contrast to
the huge fireworks display and
worker parades which marked the
10th birthday of Soviet Prime
Minister Stain.
Not single picture of Masaryk
was hung on public buildings in
the city's main square, now
adorned with portraits of Presi-
dent Element Gottwald. Czech
Premier Antonin Zapotocky and
Stain.
During the day. however. sew
eral government officials headed
by Premier zapotocky laid wreaths
on Masaryk's grave in Lany.
The plaque to Mr.. Masaryk was
dedicated to the frs. president
and "the enduring friendship be-
tween the peoples of CZecboslo-
vakia and the United States
American military and diplo-
matte personnel gathered for the
ceremony were told by Mr.. Briggs
that "the flame kindled by
Thomas Masaryk can never be
darkened."
Wreath Put on Grave.
Mr.. Briggs went later to Lany
and laid wreath on the grave.
Scores of uniformed policemen
and plainclothesmen patrolled the
sidewalk in front of the USIS
Building. They scrutinized all
who entered and those Czechs
who gathered at the outside to
look at the picture of Masaryk in
the window.
All Czech papers carried por-
traits of Mr.. MaSaryk on page one
with accompanying editorials
most of them condemning him
with faint praise. The youth
newspaper Mlada Fronta said
present "reactionaries have no
right to use T. G. Masaryk's men,
DRY because they represent every
thing that Masaryk used to fight
| against"

South Dakotan Offers
| New Farm Price Plan
To Avoid Further Loss

Representative Lovre, Repub-
lican, of South Dakota today
came up with a farm plan he
said would allow the Government
to recoup some of its losses I'M
der the present price support pro-
gram.
Mr.. Lovre said he planned to
introduce a measure providing for
a self financing two-price pro-
gram. 1t would provide payment
.of full parity price to farmers for
all crops consumed domestically
and a second price for food going
to the needy in this country and
abroad.
Farmers would be given market
ing quotas for average domestic
consumption. Production beyond
a farmers quota would be stored
on the farm and marketed the next
year or shipped in foreign trade or
converted to other uses such as
alcohol in the case of corn or dis
tributed under a food stamp
plan.
Mr.. Lovre said his plan would
remove "the burden of SURPRISES
from the back of the American
taxpayer" "a .---

partment took another step to

milk and 100000 pounds of
dried eggs acquired under the sup

The department also announced
a 20 per cent cut in production

Senators May Begin
Voting Tomorrow on
Changes in DIP Law

Voting may start in the Senate
tomorrow on controversial changes
in the Displaced Persons Law.
AS the floor debate went on, a
Senate Judiciary subcommittee
scheduled another hearing today
into charges of lax administration
of the present law.
Alex Squadrilli, European CO.
ordinator of the Displaced Per-
sons Commission; Ben Kaplan, his
executive assistant, and two heads
of area offices in Germany were
among the witnesses expected.
At a hearing last Friday night
Mr.. Squadrilli denied charges of
lax administration and made
quate screening in the operation
Of the 1913 law.
Surprise Move for Recess.
Debate on the legislation was
interrupted abruptly in mid-after-
noon yesterday when Senator
LANCER of North Dakota and a
handful of other Republicans
caught the administration of
guard and forced an overnight
recess of the Senate.
Democratic Leader Lucas of H.
linois was attending a conference
on a farm bill, in a room just
off the Senate chamber, when
Senator LANCER made his surprise
motion to quit for the day two
hours ahead of schedule. Before
Senator Lucas could get to the
floor the motion had been
agreed to.
Senator Lucas asserted that op-
ponents of a more liberal DIP bill
than the Judiciary Committee has
recommended were trying to fill
buster against it.
Filibuster Aim Denied.
Later this was denied by both
Senators McCarran, Democrat, OF
Nevada and LANCER. Senator Nc
Carran is in charge of the legis-
lation.
Senator LANCER told a reporter hi
made his surprise motion to recess
at 800 pm. because so few Sen
ators were on the floor to listen
to a speech of Senator Jenner
Republican, of Indiana.
The committee bill backed BY
Senators McCarran. Jenner ano
others would increase the number
Of DPS eligible for admission tc
the United States from 5000
to 100000 but opponents object to
other provisions which they call
discriminatory and restrictive.
The substitute measure, backed
by 10 Republicans and Demo-
Gratis, would raise the total to
$4,000 and in other respects also
is like a bill passed by the House
last June to liberalize the present
DIP law.
