RENT CONTROL:
Senute Extends

With what observers called an
eye for the November elections,
the senate passed, SO to %, g.
month extension of rent control.
The law is due to expire June 30.
Many of the Democrats who voted
for extension did so frankly in re-
Spouse to an appeal made in party
caucus by majority leader Scott
Lucas. He told his colleagues his
chances to defeat his Republican
opponent in Illinois, Everett Dirk
son, hung on Democratic support
for rent control.
The following day the house
voted POP to 1853 to extend the rent
control measure. The house meas
ure, however, would extend rent
control seven months.
Now the two chambers must ap-
point a committee to iron out the
length of extension before the bill
can be sent to President Truman.
Like the senate bill, the house
measure provides that when ex-
tended federal law again runs out
on December 81, 1850, or Janu-
airy 81, 1851, depending on which
version is adopted-the governing
bodies OF municipalities can vote
an additional extension until June
80, 1851.

POTATOES:
Shootin' Bug Dust

Now it can be told. A hundred
million pounds of surplus Ameri-
can potatoes have been sent into
Soviet Germany to feed victims Of
the potato bug fantasy.
Recently the Soviet controlled ra-
dio and press went into a song and
dance about American planes drop
ping potato bugs in the Soviet zone.
The Communist propaganda said
the United States sewed insects to
blight the east German crop, to
test out germ warfare, and sell
capitalistic bug poison.
American officials called the
charges ridiculous and said the
Communists apparently were trying
to condition the people for crop
failure. The continued broadcast
by the Communists on the potato
bug theme and the silence main
tanned over the shipment of un-
branded American potatoes were
looked on as evidence of cam
paign to cover up production fail
ureS.
The potatoes were shipped by a
New York broker to a Swiss firm
in Hamburg. Another deal was re-
ported underway to ship $4,000 tons
to Frankfurt in western Germany.
In both cases, state department
officials suspected that the po-
tatoes were going to the Commu-
niStS,

DISARMAMENT:
U. S. Just ToIkine

Sixteen outstanding scientists,
educators, and clergymen have is
sued five-point program calling
for total disarmament and accus-
ing the United States of just paying
lip service to disarmament while
actually discouraging such a step.
The five points:
l. An immediate halt to atomic
bomb production, with stockpiles
to be taken over by the U. N. pend
ing further negotiations.
2. Acceptance Of the Soviet pro-
posal for national-rather than in
Observation-Disclosures ownership, un-
der an agreement blocking large
scale production.
8. Acceptance Of the American
proposal for International inspec-
ton Of atomic resources and pro-
duction.
4. A compromise in the u. S.
Soviet disagreement over whether
atomic stockpiles should be des-
troyed before or after international
controls 60 into effect.
3. Abolition OF all armies and
conventional ornaments at the
same time atomic weapons are de-
stroyed.
The report was signed by Albert
Einstein and novelist Louis Brom-
field among others, and said in
part:
Officially appointed representa-
tives to the UN tell the world that
the U. S. wants disarmament and
only Russia stands in the way. Yet
other American officials do what
they can do to discourage disarma-
ment.
Most observers agreed the pro-
| gram proposed was idealistic, but
hardly practical in the light OF
world events.

CONSUMERS:
Buy More Heavily

The commerce department has
announced consumer incomes, the
handspring of retail buying, rolled
up to $212,8OO million a year rate
during April.
The April showing constituted a
$500 million annual-rate gain over
March and was the second consecu-
tive monthly increase.
The gain REFLECTED an expansion
in payrolls that was largely offset
by declines in proprietors' income
and transfer payments" the de-
partment said.
The decline in proprietor's income
occurred chiefly in farm income as
livestock marketing receipts de-
clined in season when they nor
mally rise.
1.-THE net income of farm opera
tons for the first four months of
1850 was about one-fifth less than
in the same period last year." the
department said.
"The rise stemmed primarily
from increased activity in the dur
able goods and manufacturing in
dustries.
Higher employment and a longer
work week in factories producing
transportation equipment, machin-
cry, and other fabricated metal
products were mainly responsible
for the advance of total wages in
durable-goods manufacturing"

WHEAT CROP:
Miss Billion Mark

For the first time in seven years,
the nations farmers will fail to
harvest billion-bushel wheat crop
this year, the agriculture depart
ment has predicted.
This means, the government
forecasters said, the income of
wheat farmers will be down some
$500, 100000
The government predicts a har-
vest of 944,514,O 900 bushels as the
result of voluntary reductions in
paintings under the government
acreage allotment program and
from bad weather and insects.
The record crop was harvested
in 1947 and amounted to 1857, 1885,
600 bushels. Last year LILAC, 1000. 900
bushels were harvested. The fore
cast, incidentally, is well under
the 10 year average of 1,032, 1000, 1000
bushels.
Observers pointed out it means
the government may have to dip
into its big price support wheat
surplus to meet the combined do
nestle and export needs in the
year ahead. The government now
has approximately $4,000, 900, 900 in
vested in farm SURPRISES.
The agriculture department said
prospects for the corn crop now
generally are favorable. Paintings
are expected to be smaller than a
year ago because of the acreage
allotment program.
The report forecast an oat crop
OF 1,380,O00,000 bushels, four per-
cent more than last year. Rye pro-
duction forecast at 22,4O0, 900 bu-
shells, would be 20 percent larger
than last year but still smaller
than average.

In seventeenth century England,
the people were so interested in
what well-lEown individuals said
shortly before they died that it was
virtually a duty of the family of
the deceased to publish such state
ments. Thus, when Richard Bax-
ter, famous English divine, lost
his wife in 1851, he published "The
Last Words of Mrs. Baxter" As it
had tremendous sale, the printer
decided to cash in on the demand
for the late lady's death-bed utter
ances, and he composed and pub
lished more Last Words of Mrs.
Baxter" But the minister soon
killed its sale with handful which
simply read, Mrs. Baxter did not
say anything else!"

FIFTH COLUMN:
$40, 900 in U. S.

OF all the men in high govern
ment security posts, J. Edgar
Hoover, director Of the F.B.I., pos
Pibly commands more respect than
any other. For that reason, his
statement that the Communists
have a potential fifth column Of
$4,000 people in the United States,
made public some four months
after he testified before a senate
committee, gave Red conscious
Americans a shock.
He was explicit on two points:
~ Communists are seeking Amer
lean secrets with every trick and
means at their disposal; (2) Sub
versive Communists are more &C.
tive now than the Nazis and Fas-
cists ever were during World War
II.
The "orbit of Communist con-
troll" he said, has increased from
one seventh of the worlds popula-
ton in 1917 to one third of the
worlds population today.
"The intensification of commu-
ism and underground activity in
the United States has increased
proportionately. II we are to pre-
serve our internal security in
times of emergency, it is incum-
bent that the identities of those
who work against the peace and Sc
curity of America be established"
The F.B.I. chief revealed that
native-born Communists and SYM
pathizers are after information on
atomic research, radar, jet propul-
sion, coastal maps, military air.
ports, biological warfare, and in
dustrial resources.
His agency is handicapped in
dealing with them because present
espionage laws are intended main
ly for aliens.
Hoover also reported, "To coun-
teract the F.B.I.'s penetration of
the Communist party, its leaders
have established far-reaching
and vigorous loyalty program of
Its own, calling for establishment
of investigating committees in
each state and thorough investi-
cation of each member of the part
as to personal history, activities,
associations, contacts, and length
of membership"

SENATOR TAFT:
War If Necessary

Senator Robert Taft of Ohio, the
Republican policy chieftain who
has as good a chance as any for
the COP presidential nomination
in 1852, has issued a frank and
complete, if somewhat startling,
one-package statement on U. S.
foreign policy.
The main points: (1) The United
States should 60 to war if Russia
moves into western Europe; (2)
He doubts there ever can be
complete bipartisan foreign poll
cy to cover all areas of the world.
The senator, however, did not
entirely abandon the music of iso-
lationism with which he has often
been associated. He added that he
believed the US. can contribute
most to meeting the challenge (of
Russia) if it maintains "a free
hand" and avoids any commit
ments, such as arms aid, now or
"land-mass fighting In Europe"
If fighting breaks out.
On the bipartisan foreign policy
problem, Taft was not jumping
completely to either side Of the
fence. He wanted it understood he
believed a bipartisan policy could
be achieved on Specific projects"
when there is advance consulta-
ton with elected Republicans in
congress-"
He was critical Of two recent de-
velopments, particularly the bal
anced collective forces" concept
agreed upon by the Atlantic pact
foreign minister in London, and
the 81, 222, 500, 900 second-install-
ment arms-aid program. He said
the building up Of European forces
might incite Russia to attack on
grounds that it constituted Tag
gressive action"

The 200 or more people who
gathered last night at Mt. Calvary
Baptist Church at 18th Avenue and
Yuma Street witnessed a type of
church gathering unique in church
history of this city. It was night
session of the Maricopa County
Court, ordered by Judge Don T.
Udall of st. Johns, Arizona, who
was called in on the case last Tues
day after the barristers here in
Maricopa county had disqualified
themselves to sit in judgment at
the trial.
z Last nights session was sup
posed to have been the climax to
long and bitter fight between a
portion of the Mt. Calvary MEM
bership and the pastor.
Last Tuesday, Attorney Harold
Whitney was appointed by the
court as mediator in the trial
which was held at the church last
night, with instructions to deter
mine three points in the case; first,
if the 19 members excluded from
the church roll, was done legally
according to Baptist laws; second,
shall the pastor, Rev. Washington
be dismissed or retained? Third,
shall the deacon and trustee board
be retained? These three items
were voted on by the badly with
about It's m m bers present.
The standing votes were counted
and tabulated by the two attor-
neys, Atty. Wade Church, for the
deacon board and pastor, and Atty.
Burton r. LeWkowitz for the eight
restrained members.
The first vote was a-tie; the Sec
ond vote-the yeas won by two
votes of qualified voters; the third,
yeas won by small margin. There
was a test vote taken of 13 of the
19 members discharged, all of
course, voted against retaining the
pastor also the deacons and trustee
board. The absentee ballots which
