FARM OUTLOOK IN BRIEF
Highlights of various outlook
reports presented TO the confer
ence which was attended by
agricultural economists. admin
istrative officials and extension
workers from all over the ma
lion:
Wheat-Continued large acreage.
accumulation of a substantial re-
serve and the likelihood of an in
crease in the wheat loan rate which
will be offset, at least in part, by
the discontinuance of payments by
CCC of storage charges while the
grain is under loan.
Dairy products-It is almost GER
tain that retail values of dairy prod
ucts will move upward in the year
ahead. Increases probably will occur
for all the individual products, but
most important is the prospective in
creases in expenditures for fluid milk
and cream. Government price sup
port purchases will be much smaller
than in either 1949 or 1850.
Feed-Ample supplies of grains,
other concentrates and forages are
seen. Utilization of feed is expected
to be stronger than in 1949-50 and
feed prices will be generally higher.
Meat animals-Rests largely on
expected effects of new military and
international activities--and demand
for meat generated by them-on an
industry whose annual output and
capacity for future production has
been expanding gradually.
Poultry and eggs-Smaller egg
production, lower springtime egg
prices, higher egg prices in the fall,
probably bringing the annual aver
age to higher level than in 1850.
Larger poultry production from
broilers offsetting smaller output of
farm produced chickens, and, for the
year as whole, higher prices for
poultry meat.
Fruits-Larger production of fruit
seems likely, but demand is expected
to be enough stronger to result in
prices for deciduous fruits around
1850 levels.
Farm costs-Outlook less certain
for year ahead than it has been since
time of World war 2. Farmers will
pay higher prices in 1851 than in
1850 for practically all important
items, and prices of some may be
highest on record.
Manpower and wages-Outlook is
for frightened labor supply, accom-
panied by a rising level of farm
wages, but situation may not be
much more difficult than in 1948-a
year of virtually full employment
and record year of farm output.

of how American diplomats in
Sofia tried vainly to protect their
Bulgarian employees against tor

the tough policy demonstrated in
the decision to break off all diplo-

would bring better treatment for
American missions and their local
employees in other Soviet satellite

Senator Brewster of Maine,

ut looks to me as though the
Democrats are on the horns of a
dilemma. Either they have been
violating the Hatch Corrupt Prac-
tices Act by bearing down on
Government employees for politi-
cal contributions or they have
been evading Federal tax on
tickets sold for these dinners.
1T is very unfortunate that an

Rioting Flares Anew

BY the Associated Pres,

ASMARA. Eritrea. Feb. %
Bloody rioting f1ared anew today
in this former Italian colony
capital where 18 persons were
killed and SIS were wounded in
Moslem- Christian fighting yester-
day.
About 10 hand grenades ex-
ploded in the native market.
Street fighting in the nativ quar-
ter surged toward the European
areas of the capital.
British troops, who have occu-
pied Eritrea since the East Africa
colony was taken from Italy in
1941, reinforced police in attempts
to put down the rioting, which be-
gan over religious and political
feuds. The British retain author
ity here until the United Nations
decides whether to turn the colony
over to Italian administration,
give it independence or annex it
to land-locked Ethiopia.
The fighting started with the
killing of a Moslem minor official.
At the mile-long funeral process
sion yesterday, hand grenades and
stones began to fly and the Mos
lens went after their Christian
attackers with swords and knives.

Make Final Pleas for

LONDON, Feb. 22.-Labor and
Conservative leaders issued final
appeals today to Britain's "a mil
lion voters and political sooth-
sayerS said it was a tossup which
would come out on top in to-
morrow's election.
With the whole world awaiting
the outcome, campaign chiefs OF
both major parties expressed
confidence.
The Gallup Poll gave the Labor
Party slight edge. It's final
figures listed Labor with As per
cent of the votes of those who
have made up their minds, the
Conservatives with 43.5 per cent,
the Liberals with los per cent,
others l per cent. But the final
figures did not take the "unde-
cideds - per cent of the voters
into consideration.
Opposite Findings Reported.
The Conservative London Daily
Express. on the other hand, pub
lished final figures of a poll whose
findings on Labor and Conserva-
tives were just the opposite.
London's leading bookmaker,

You would have to put up six
pounds to win four on a Labor vic
tory; five pounds to win six on
the Conservatives.
The weather outlook was good

Final Appeals Issued.

can we regain our position in the
world, preserve our freedom and
revive the prosperity and true

The Unionist and National Lib

A last-minute drive was on by
both parties to get out the full
vote for what looked like a neck
