farmer involvement in the cold war

President EisenhoWer's move to

Washington as probably the single

WASHINGTON, DC. - There's
more than the price and amount OF
the 1854 wheat crop riding on the
outcome of the grower vote on Au-
gust ID for or against marketing
quotas. The referendum on wheat,
recurring a two-thirds Eyes" vote
for curbs to take effect, could cause
a miIe-wide split in the ranks OF
the COP.
II boiIs down TO a struggle
hitherto pretty well concealed
between Republican members
of Congress and the Agricultur-
al Department. Leading COP
farm legislators and Secretary
Benson have been polite and re-
spectfuI in their dealings. but
underneath there has been con-
siderable tension.
Reason for the undercurrent OF
strain in USDA-Congressional rela-
tions boils down to this: Benson's
concern that farmers will get more
help from government than is con-
sistent with his ideas of individual
freedom of action +. and concern
among lawmakers that assistance to
farmers may be short of what is
needed to assure their reelection
next year.
The wheat-controls issue could be
the spark that sets off the fireworks

IF VOTE IS YES"

Here is how wheat growers
will stand if the necessary two
thirds of them vote for controls:
1. Price support would be con-
tinued at 90 per cent of parity for
all those who plant within allot-
ments. Allotments, on the average,
require paintings about 20 per cent
under 1928 acreages.
2. Farmers who planted more than
their allotment would be penalized
As per cent of the support rate, or
about $1.10 per bushel, on the lex
cess" wheat. In addition, no support
loans would be available to such
growers for any part of their crop.

IF VOTE IS mo"

In case there is more than
one third who vote against con-
trolls. and they are therefore
ruled out. here is how wheat
growers would stand:
1. Price support would drop to so
per cent of full parity, or about $1.20
per bushel, but there would be no
controls over how much wheat
could be marketed.
2. Acreage allotments still would
be in effect, but would not mean
much. Reason is that the only pen
atty for overplanting would be loss
of the so per cent support guarantee.

WHAT IF VOTE IS MOP"
What if quotas are voted

down?
There is already talk in Wash
ington that in this case Congress
might act next winter to change
the result-by passing special legis-
lation to continue 80 per cent sup
port. Cotton Congressman prob
ably would go along with legislators
from wheat areas to push for the
change. in which case there would
be a good chance for passage. Cot
ton and wheat men on Capitol Hill,
between them, have co-operated to
dominate farm legislative procedure.
But it is far from certain that
any such legislation would be en-
acted. Wheat growers might be left
with nothing more than so per cent
of parity support.

WANT YES" VOTE

Most influential farm Iegisla-
tors would be greatly distressed
over a mo" vote from growers
on controls. Such vote. they
think. would mean mountainous
wheat supplies next year that
make this years record supply
look like a mole hill.
1t would also mean so per cent
instead of 90 per cent-of-parity sup
port price for wheat, or about $1.20
per bushel, during the months and
weeks just prior to congressional
elections. Lawmakers from wheat
areas figure this alone would be
enough to catapult them from their
seats in Congress.
They are doing what they can to
encourage growers to vote for con-
trolls.

I'd Missing Witness
In Po|ack Case Is
Found in Baltimore
BY the Associoted Pres,

BALTIMORE. Dec. 29.-The
second OF two missing witnesses
in the grand jury indictment
against a city Democratic leader
has been found.
Joseph F. Sudano, a produce
dealer, was picked up by police
yesterday and released in $500
bail. He said he hadn't been out
of Baltimore during the almost
two weeks he was described as
missing.
Meanwhile. a Baltimore po-
liceman was due back from
Hollywood, Fla. with Samuel M.
Alderman, the other witness. who
was located in the Southern
State last week.
He and Mr.. Sudano are wit
nesSeS in the indictment which
charges James H. (Jack) Pol
lack with attempting to obstruct
justice by influencing witnesses
in a series of morals trials here
recently.
The same grand jury charged
Franklin Roosevelt DAlesandro,
son of Baltimore's Mayor and
one of the II defendants in the
morals cases, of perjury at his
trial.
Mr.. Sudano is a brother of one
of the defendants, Michael Su-
dano, whose testimony conflicted
with that of young D'Alesandro
and led to the perjury and OBJ
structing justice indictments.
