Look at the dead face, known

The face is stern. The hair is

Legislators Gloomy
Over Peace Outlook
Under MaIenkoV
BY the Associated Press

Lawmakers concluded gloom
lily today there is little hope for
peace in RuSsia'S poSt-Stalin
leadership. but Senator Carlson,
Republican, of Kansas saw hope
that some Soviet satellites might
split away.
Specifically, Senator Carlson
said he thinks the United States
should explore the possibility of
a break between Red China and
Russia. now that Stalin's inf1u-
ence has ended.
Mao Tse-tung reay have some
ideas of his own about how
China should be run and it is
possible that he might become
the Tito of Asia if he had some
unofficial encouragement" Sen
ator Carlson said.
President Eisenhower had no
comment on the selection of
Georgi Malenkov as Premier
Stalin's successor. Presidential
Press Secretary James c. Hag-
erty told newsmen:
Just to save yourselves some
questions, we have no comment
on the latest action"
Few legislators saw much hope
in the shift of Russian leaders
Kefauver Has Gloomy View.
Senator Kefauver, Democrat
of Tennessee said there might be
even more danger in Malenkov's s
holding the Craftsmanship of the
Soviet Council of Ministers. "be-
cause he doesn't know as much
about the power of the Western
world as Stain did" and there
fore might be more tempted
toward war.
Although it was the general
opinion in Congress that Malen-
kov had come out on top, many
lawmakers believed there still
will be a scramble for power in
Russia.
And Senator Hayden, Demo-
crat, of Arizona said it was sig
nif1cant to him that Lavrenti P
Beria retains his dictatorship OF
the secret police. Senator Hay
den said the pattern of Commu-
mist rise to power always seems
to be traced through the secret
police.
Chairman Taber of the House
Appropriations Committee, Re-
publican economy spokesman
cautioned against slashing the
defense budget on the theory
that Stalin's death has lessened
the chances of war.
Mr.. Taber said he still think.
the military budget can be re.
duced "but not at the cost ot
adequate preparedness"

YyHE year 1858 probably will be fairly
4 good for most farmers. Times are likely
to be little more rugged than in 1852 and
less favorable than four or five other years
of the postwar boom, but the year probably
will be among the best 8 or 10 in genera
ton.
Farm prices and farm income probably
will be a little lower and production ex-
penses may be little higher than in 1852
Net farm income is likely to be off, perhaps
by per cent or more. However, most of the
better farmers will be able to save money
and add to their net worth during the year.
The new year is starting less favorably
than 1852. Farm prices are about 10 per
cent lower than year ago and 5 per cent
below the 1852 average. Although they
loaded more produce for market, farmers
received about per cent less income in the
latest month reported than a year previous.
Production cost rates are about l per cent
lower than year back and 2 per cent be-
low the 1852 average.
Times probably will continue exception

Consumer buying power is likely to be 2 to
per cent higher than in 1852 although lit
tie of the increase may be used for food pur-
chases.

These trends in government and bust
ness OUTLAWS spell continued full employ

consumer spending probably will be greater
than in 1852 and consumer goods industries
will be busy keeping counters and store
shelves filled.
While the business boom seems likely
to continue or rise to new peaks in 1858,
inflationary pressure on prices is likely to
be slight due to plentitude of supplies. Capa-
city to turn out industrial goods probably
is about one-half larger than in 1915 and
has doubled since 1882 1t probably is nearly
equal to the task of supplying both civilian
wants and military needs, that is, providing
both butter and guns.
Any increase in consumer spending
seems likely to go largely into industrial
products and services for which demand is
readily expansible rather than into foods.
Consumers are already using 10 to Il per
