N.Y.C. to Drop
Two Local Trains

exhibits showing a decrease in
passenger traffic between the
dates of the two hearings.
This final removal is the fifth
in little more than two years. All
of the previous stoppages were
due to coal strikes. The trains
were taken off early in January
after being restored Dec. 8 of
last year. They had been off
since Oct. II due to a shutdown
of the coal mines.
Two Years of Uncertainty
Other time these trains were
out of service was in the spring
of l948. At that time, another
Lewis-instigated coal strike
forced their removal in March.
The New York Central failed to
put them back on the run until
early June of that year, when
they were forced to do so by &C
ton before the Public Utilities
Commission of Ohio.
OF course, the New York Cen
trail didn't mind in the least hav-
ing to take these two trains out
of service.
The Railroad Co. has been try
ling to do SO since June, 1913 by
formal request through the Utilit-
les Commission.
1t was the contention of the
New York Central that the trains
in question did not have Suf-
ficient patronage to warrant their
continued operation. In fact, the
Railroad claimed it was losing
several thousand dollars per year
by keeping them in service.
The New York Central filed
two applications with the Utili-
ties Commission asking for per-
mission to discontinue the two
trains. Both applications drew a
storm of protest from communi-
ties served when hearings were
held.
First application for withdraw
ing the trains was withdrawn by
the New York Central in July of
last year. A new application was
filed almost Immediately, how
ever, and hearings on it were held
in October and May.

Ouch Department:

Ordinarily, we completely ig-
more anonymous communications,
but here's one which gives US OPP
portunity to bring in an apology
we were having trouble trying to
figure now.
Someone who calls himself the
"Court House Cat" thinks an apt
smile would be las mixed up as
an account of a June wedding in
The Union County Journal.
We assume the feline one has
reference to the account of Sally
Wright's wedding of last Tues
day, printed Thursday. In some
manner, the type got mixed up
when it was put into the form
one of those things which all
printers live in constant dread OF
happening.
In this instance, it wasn't
caught until the paper was COM
pletelyf printed. Now, all we car
do is offer our sincere apologies
to a very sweet and charming
girl and wish her years of hap
piness.

NCOIlItUutu lIOii > ~ g
bers are at a loss to explain this
strong trend away from any farm
program at all. John w. Sims,
executive secretary of the organi-
cation said a month ago that he
thought it indicated a reaction
against the confusion which has
surrounded the writing of a farm
program"
Farm Prices Up
Strengthening of farm prices
during the last three months IS
another factor which makes
farmers think they can get along
without a farm program, Sims
believes.
Returns were tabulated from
1894 farmers and the final re-
| suits bear out the preliminary
returns releaser earlier. There IS
no significant difference in the
answers made by small farm
ers or large farmers. Owners and
tenants also made similar re-
plies, Rittenour indicated.
Some consolation can be taken
by the Brannan Plan supporters
from the fact that 81 percent OF
those replying favor a combina-
ton of price supports for stor-
ables and production payments
for perishables," Rittenour de-
clared. However, it should be
remembered that production pay
ments were a part of the Agri-
cultural Act of 1948, and that
they were repealed when the
present farm law was enacted"
There were Is percent of the
Ohio farmers who would go along
with the Brannan proposal that
farm income should be support
ed at a level which would guar
antee farmers a rate equal to 100
percent of parity or more. On the
other hand, "a percent favored a
flexible price support program
ranging from rs to 80 percent of
parity. Again, 80 percent wanted
no government guarantee of any
kind. A few farmers checked
more than one possibility, though
INSTRUCTED to choose only one.
See Way to Use SURPRISES
Ohio farmers have some def
mite ideas how to get rid of farm
SURPRISES. Suggestions which
rank highest are: Promote re-
search (74%); store enough to
stabalize the market (64%); es-
tablish more cooperatives (57%);
give SURPRISES away for relief
uses $3.50; and encourage the
development of an animal agri-
culture (47%).
Vote on Farm Plans
The final score when asked to
vote on a specific farm plan
showed SO percent favoring the
principles of the present farm
bill, though 40 percent wanted
amendments put into effect. This
proposition is much the same as
that held by the American Farm
Bureau Federation of which Ohio
is a member, Rittenour stated.
There were "a percent who
wanted no government plan at
all. an increase of 2 percent
over preliminary figures.
Brannan Plan support was IA
percent, a drop of / percent over
the earlier figures released.

Kind of incongruous, isn't it,
that water would start a fire?
Yet that is just what happened
during the flash-flood which
caused millions of dollars loss in
the vicinity of Crooksville, last
week.
When the flood waters swept
into a Crooksville pottery plant,
they exploded the hot fires in a
kiln and set fire to the plant it
self. II burned with a total loss
estimated at a half-million dol
lars.
The same thing has happened,
on a much vaster scale, in nature
itself. Surface water has seeped
through the ground, to mingle
with thewhite-hot earth's core,
where it comes close to the sur
face, and cause explosions which
have sometimes destroyed whole
islands. In lesser manifestations,
they come out as volcanic erup-
lions.

and the vigorous protest related
thereto was in order. America
can afford to wait a little to see
what the effect of this protest is
on the Chinese a nd among the
nations of the none Communist
world.
The statement of facts and the
insistence on rights in that pro-
test gives pause to some nations
which have recognized Commu-
mist China or are considered that
step and to those who have heard
the charges in the United Nations
of aggressive Intervention by
Soviet Russia in Chinese affairs.
Whatever Americans do, they
should not let provocations and
incidents anger them into taking
sny impulsive steps t h a would
play into the Russian hands. The
more completely the Unit e d
States, can withdraw from the
role Of foreign devil" in t h e
propaganda of Asiatic extreme
leftists. the better the Chinese
may be a Bile to perceive how
imminent is the menace of Soviet
expansionism.
It is unreasonable to demand
designations from the State De-
partment of t hos who have
wrestled with this difficult situa-
ton. It would be intellectually
costly to get involved in military
adventures either to avenge af-
fronts or to take further respon-
sibility for the Chang Kai-shek
Nationalist regime of Formosa.
But there is much that can be
done. The first thing should be
to consult fully and freely with
other countries which have in
terests or t heir very being in
southeast Asia-such as Great
Britain, France, India, Pakistan,
the Netherlands, Indonesia Thail-
and. the Philippines, Australia,
and New Zealand.

WHAT NEXT IN CHINA?

The Chinese Communists have,
in effect, invited t h e United
States to take its consular repre-
sentatives out of China. The Un-
tied States has accepted the in
vitation.
The government of Mao Tnze-
tung has ON cosnular representa-.
tives in the Uuited States to be
affected by this step. Possibly
the Chi csc Red leaders think of
their step, including French and
Dutch consulates, as one to gain
equality in bargaining position in
negotiating with these western
nations for diplomatic recogni-
ton.
Itappears, though, that at pres
ent the government in Peiping
prefers isolation to contact for
its people with the outside world.
In this respect, one wonders to
what extent its hand is pushed by
Moscow.
Certainly disregard of t b e
treaty of 1913 by the seizure of
consulate property puts further
away than ever any immediate
thought Of diplomatic recognition
by the United States. And If
Russia has any serious hope of
obtaining for Communist China
the seat held by Nationalist China
ON the United Nations Council,
surely the keeping Of internatina-
al obligations is Of some moment
in that connection.
The question presently facing
the United States is what t.! do
IN this set Of circumstances.

FARM PRICE BILL
 KICKED AROUND
(By Associated Press)

The Senate has delayed final ac- ton on a compromise farm price support bill-after first voting to approve it. The reversal came when the bills supporters made a move that usually is just formality Tabling a motion to reconsider the bill so there can be no further action. This time the Senate de- feated the move to table the re- consideration, by 37 votes to 35 Northern farm state Republicans then made a motion to reconsider and action on this is scheduled for tomorrow
 Northerners and southerners split violently over the measure, which would set up controls and price supports for potatoes, cotton and peanuts. The northerners say it favors the south. Democrat Richard Russell of Georgia warned them they may not get any price support bill at all if they don't stop fight ing it.
 The House has passed and sent to the Senate another farm bill. This one would add two-billion dollars to the capitalization of the Commodity Credit Corporation-to meet rising price support costs.
