Benson Denies u. 5.
Is Biased on Wheat
Quota Referendum
BY the Associated Press

Secretary of Agriculture Ben
son said today the Government is
making no attempt to influence
farmer votes on the question of
marketing quotas for the 1854
wheat crop to be decided at a
national referendum August IA.
The quotas, which require APP
prevail of at least two-thirds of
the farmers voting, are designed
to help restrict production in the
face of a record supply and a
surplus far above needs.
Secretary Benson said his de-
partment had tried hard "in
completely unbiased way" to see
that every farmer has a chance
to know exactly what is involved
in the referendum.
Decision Up to Farmers Only.
1.-THE decision" he added, lis
now up to the wheat farmers
themselves"
The Secretary gave this ex-
PLANTATION of the departments
position on the referendum in
talk prepared for an NBC radio
program:
I'VE have too much wheat.
About production was continued
too long In the second place,
the law directs the Secretary of
Agriculture to proclaim quotas
when the actual wheat supply is
more than 20 per cent above the
normal supply. Our total supply
is more than so per cent above
the normal level"
80 Per Cent Support.
If quotas are approved, the
price of wheat will be supported
at 80 per cent of parity. But if
they are defeated, the support
will drop to SO per cent of parity.
Parity is price designed to be
fair to farmers in relation to
prices they pay.
Under quotas, Secretary Ben
son explained, for farmers who
produced more than their quota,
the excess grain would be sub
ject to penalty tax equivalent
| to As per cent of parity.
The program would be de-.

Enrolment Climbs in Glasses on Rehqion

Are churches too commercial
lied?
Do people become more mar
row-minded the more religious
they get?
Have the churches been used
by politically ambitious leaders
for their own ends?
College students today are ask
ing these and other questions.
The answers given will 60 a
long way toward determining
how our better educated youth
will respond to religion and to
church af6liation.
One thing is evident, college
officials say, and that is the pro-
nounced increased interest stu
dents show in religion. Courses
dealing with the great faiths and
allied subjects are in demand,
either with or without credit.
Large EnrOllmentS.
Recently the National Luther
an Council, a cooperative agen-
cy for eight Lutheran Church
bodies having more than 4 mil
lion members, reported that non
credit courses in religion in 18
colleges and universities have
had UNEXPECTEDLY large enroll
mentS.
Credit courses in other schools
have shown a marked rise. 1t
all means that college students
want to know more about the
place Of religion in modern So
ciety.
George Washington Univer-
Sly is an example here OF. the
upsurge courses in religion are
experiencing.
youth today is just as frank.
critical, searching and honest as
it ever was" DR.. Lawrence D.
Folkemer, executive ofhcer OF the
university's Department OF Re-
ligion, said. VERY few young
people are Indifferent. They are
all searching for a satisfying ex-
perience of life."
Key to Satisfaction.
An understanding Of religion is
one Of the keys to this satisfy
ing experience" To meet this
need the university started the
Department Of Religion in 1947.
Since then more than 1900 stu
dents have enrolled in its courses.
Today these include the Old
Testament, the New Testament,
the Life and Significance Of Je-
sus, the History Of Religions,
Philosophy Of Religion. Religion
in American Life and the Proph-
cts, Their Times and Their Mes
sages.
The courses, DR.. Folkemer
pointed out, are all elective and
no effort is made to prepare men
or women for any particular oe-
nominational ministry. They
were started in response to a
poll asking students in what new
fields the university should pro-
vide studies. Religion led the
list. Students Of many faiths
are attracted-Protestant, Ro-
man Catholic, Jewish. Moslem,
Eastern Orthodox and others.
They enroll for many reasons.
Some are merely curious"
others want to know more about
their own faiths and still others
wish to learn something Of other
faiths.
Different Meanings.
Their answers to the satisfac-
tions derived from religion are
Illuminating. Here are a few:
"The most gratifying thing in
religion is the sense Of security
knowing that there Is someone
I can turn to when no friend
can be of assistance"
