Wire Services Refuse.
A spokesman for the Associated
Press said:
"The Associated Press will make
no commitment of any kind to

sponsibility is to report the news
If and when it happens"

His offer to disclose the names
to the press services was made
last night on the NBC television

choice" Senator Mccarthy re-
piled.
"Are you prepared to do it now?
Do you want to do it tonight?''
a questioner asked.
. The program moderator asked
that I'VE reserve that question
now"
Another question was then put
to the Senator: You've been ac-
cused of trying to hide behind
Senate Immunity; I'm asking you
whether you're willing to waive
that immunity and do it (make
the names known some other
way"
A Senator can not be sued for
what he says on the Senate floor.
but this immunity does not extend
to what he says elsewhere.
Hits Bleeding Hearts
That's why I'm glad you asked
that question" responded Senator
Mccarthy, "the left wing bleed
ing-heart element of the press
and radio has been screaming that
Mccarthy is hiding behind Con-
gressional immunity.
Now. I offered to make those
names public on this show to-

Senators Loud Admiral Davis
For Excellent Censorship Job

A high naval officer put his off,
cial career on the line in the first
three days of the Macarthur in
quiry-and came. out with Con-
gressional praise ringing in his
ears.
He was Vice Admiral Arthur C.
Davis, who drew the unwelcome as
Signment of acting as an official
censor of testimony in the Senate's
investigation into the dismissal of
Gen. Macarthur from his Far
Eastern command and American
foreign policy in general.
AS Gen. Macarthur concluded

and Foreign Relations Committees
praised Admiral Davis for exer-
cising wide discretion" and "a
rule Of common sense" in deleting
material from the testimony made
public.
Censorship Was Senator's idea.
1t was emphasized also that it
was Chairman Russell and the
committees and not the armed
services or the administration
which requested the censorship in
the interest of keeping secret only
those matters which might affect
the security of the United States
and the troops fighting in Korea.
Along with the praise for Ad-
miral Davis for the way he was
handling the assignment there was
comment by Senator McMahon,
Democrat, of Connecticut, con-
corning a cartoon in The Star re-
ferring to the censorship.
Senator Mcmahon called the

Consumer Complaints
About Potato Prices
Raise ops Problem
BY the Assoeiofed Press

The lowly potato is back on the
Governments doorstep today with
a new price problem.
This time it Is there because of
consumer complaints reaching the
Office of Price Sterilization that
prices Of this basic food threaten
to get out Of hand.
A year ago potatoes were caus-
ing headaches at the Agriculture
Department because prices were
too low. The agency was spend
ing millions Of dollars buying sur
plus potatoes to keep the bottom
from dropping out Of producer
markets.
Because of public criticism of
a price support program that had
cost taxpayers more than half a
billion dollars in less than 10
years, the department withdrew
price protection and put this
years crop on its own.
Acreage Reduced.
Farmers then cut the acreage
nearly a fifth. This reduction,
coupled with less favorable wealth
er, has resulted in a crop nearly
Is per cent smaller than last year.
For the first time in seven years
there is no potato surplus.
Average prices received by grow
ers have increased from SLIT a
buShel in mid-August to about
$1.55 this week, officials said. A
year ago the average was IS cents.
Despite this rise, prices still are
below the minimum legal ceiling
level set by law. Congress has di-
rected that no ceilings on farm
products be set at less than parity,
currently $183.
OPS officials, reviewing the sit
uation yesterday with an advisory
committee of growers. said that If
prices continue to rise ceilings will
have to be imposed. If that hap
pens. they said, the ceilings will
be set high enough to assure q
parity price return to farmers.
Advised to Wait.
The question facing officials is
whether to set up ceilings now
at the parity level in anticipation
of further price increases. or to-
wait until prices climb closer to-
the parity level.
Agricultural Department ex-
perts are advising the OPS to wait
awhile. They believe that ceilings,
If announced now, might invite
prices to rise more than they
otherwise would. There has been
evidence, they said, of speculative
activity in markets which might
wear itself out before prices
reached ceiling levels.
At any rate, the OPS has indi-
Gated it will wait for an Agricul-
ture Department report Novem-
ber 30 which will give latest ac-
curate figures ON prices and where
they stand with regard to the
parity level.
One thing that concerns de-
partment officials is the possibili-
ty that higher prices this year
may lead to over-expansion in
production again next year with
another period of surpluses and
depressed prices.
