Sparkman Clarifies
Remarks on Reds al
Columbia University
By the Associuted Press

QUINCY, ILL.,. Oct. Ex-senator
Sparkman told the Associated
Press here today he regretted that
remarks he made in Council
Bluffs, Iowa, Friday, gave some
listeners "the opposite impression
of what he meant to convey.
An Associated Press story from
Council Bluffs quoted Senator
Sparkman as saying there are
more Communists and Communist
infiltrators from Columbia Uni
versity than from any other
school in the United States"
Gen. Eisenhower, Republican
candidate for President, is presi-
dent of Columbia.
Regrets Impression Caused.
Senator Sparkman has denied
that he said, Communists had
infiltrated Columbia University
Il am sorry that the report OF
what I said gave exactly the op-
posite impression" the Senator
said.
A Sparkman aide said the con-
fusion apparently resulted during
Senator Sparkman's effort ito get
off a complicated idea in a few
words" He said there was "a
lot Of noise going on at the time
and apparently the Senator's re-
marks were not heard clearly"
In New York yesterday. Prof
Richard Hofstadter, secretary of
the Volunteers for Stevenson on
the Columbia University Faculties
and Staff" released a telegram
from Sparkman concerning the
occurrence. 1t said in part:
II have never at any time said
that any one connected with Co.
lumbia University was a Com
muniSt or fellow traveller.
Notes Newspaper Clipping.
"Just before I started to speak
I was handed a clipping from
The Omaha World Herald re-
porting the charge that the names
of a number Of Columbia Univer-
sity faculty members opposing
Senator Nixon (the G. o. P. vice
presidential candidate) were in
the files Of the House Un-Ameri-
can Activities Committee.
I'm touching on this clipping,
sought to make the point that if
McCarthyism, which Eisenhower
has embraved, we're followed to its
logical conclusion, then Eisen-
hover would have to be con-
demned for not roofing out these
influences as president of CO.
lumbia."

LESS Than Half Items
In F Fami|y Budget Are
Under Price Controls

Less than half the commodities
and services figuring in the aver
age family budget are subject to
full price controls, the Office of
Price Sterilization said today.
The agency issued a breakdown
of the controls status of the more
than 200 items of greatest impor-
tance in the Bureau of Labor Sta
tistics Consumers Price Index.
Full price controls cover COM
modities and services making up
43 per cent of the budget of the
average family Of four. OPS said.
Food items in this category in
clude meat, canned pink salmon.
rice, coffee, lard, shortening, salad
dressing and margarine.
Other Full Controls.
Also included are retail sales of
most textiles and clothing (hosiery
has been decontrolled and most
apparel controls are on their way
out), fuels, most home furnishings
and appliances, cigarettes and
pipe tobacco. beer. many toilet
articles, automobiles. tires. gaso-
line and motor oil. Laundry and
dry cleaning and the repair of
automobiles and shoes are serv-
ices remaining under full controls.
OPS said items making up about
35 per cent of the family budget
have been exempted by Congress
from controls. These include all
fresh and processed fruits and
vegetables.
Is Per Cent Partial.
Subject to partial controls are
items accounting for another Is
per cent of the budget. These in
clude many foods, particularly
cereals. bakery products and dairy
and poultry products. Control is
only partial because under law
lOPS ceiling prices for farm pro-
ducts at the farm level must be
high enough to yield parity prices
that is. enough to give the farm
er fair return in relation to the
cost of things he buys.
Controls over other cost of -liv-
ing items which are about Z per
cent of the family budget have
been lifted voluntarily by OPS.
Meanwhile, price and wage con-
trolls ready for use in an emergency
have been proposed by Economic
Stabilizer Roger L. Putnam.
The present controls expire April
80. Whether they are extended or
not. Mr.. Putnam told reporters
yesterday. there should be 'some
kind of fire insurance" for use if
imitation flares up.
We'll be in danger Of a con-
f1agration until Stain puts his
matches away" Mr.. Putnam said.
Mr.. Putnam said he has asked
wage, price and rent control Of
ficials to study proposals for legis-
lation and to have them ready by

Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-12-15

COMMUNITY ACTION put the
decentralization Memorial hospi-
tai, at Whitehall in the bag, potato
bag, that is. Specifically, 1000 sacks
of top quality Russet potatoes were
produced for the hospital fund
For a number of years the COM
munities of Whitehall and its adj
jacent valleys in Jefferson and Madi-
son counties had been putting forth
every effort to secure the sorely
needed community hospital. Inten-
sive drives had brought in generous
gifts but not enough, even after they
had lowered their sights and decided
to go it alone without outside aid.
The cause had seemed well-nigh
lost last May when John Alley and
George Pehl drove out to the ranch
home of third hospital board MEM
Der to decide what could be done to
raise the $1,000 still due on the
creamery building which the board
had decided to use instead of con-
tinuing to try to raise the $4,000
required if state and federal funds
were to be granted.
"Why not have everyone help
raise potatoes for the hospital fund.-"
suggested Guy George to his callers.
A successful potato grower himself,
he was firm believer in planting
seed to harvest dollars.
That did it. Within three days the
project was underway. Bert Russell
