ing the facts about the Middle
East from the United States

Americans may ever come to

The Eisenhower administration
faced the prospect today Of hav-
ing to round up additional funds
to carry out farm drought re-
lief program well into 1854 in
some Western distress areas.
This fact stood out as Secre-
tary of Agriculture Benson
swung into the last half Of a

tour of affected areas in seven
States.
Need is Greater than Expected.
The COP. farm chief is find
ing that there is need for bene-
fits of his departments emer-
gency program in some Western
areas not heretofore designated
for aid. Furthermore, he is find
ing that assistance will have to
be continued longer in some
previously designated areas than
had been expected.
The big need is for cattle and
sheep feed at reduced prices that
will enable financially distressed
livestock farmers to hang onto
basic herds until their own feed
production can carry them.
A total Of $40 million in ap-
preparations and presidential al
lotments from emergency funds
has been made available to
finance cheap-feed programs. All
but about $3.5 million had been
spent by November /.
Drought Area Expands.
The drought picture has
changed sharply since the relief
program was started last sum-
mer and Mr.. Benson inspected
affected areas. At that time
severe conditions were limited
largely to parts of Texas, Okla
homa, Kansas, New Mexico and
Missouri.
Since then it has spread east
ward and westward. IA
Mr.. Benson has been telling
local leaders he does not want
to extend the program except
in areas where it can be shown
that distressed cattlemen should
lose their foundation herds il
Federal help were not provided.
The Secretary drove through
winter-grazing areas for sheep
in Elko County. New. today and
found range feed supplies to be
the poorest" he said he had
ever seen them.

him said they need Government
supplies of concentrated feed to
help get the sheep through the

that the finest In symphonic lit

and hearts OF the great masters
should be packaged into sort OF a
Holiday gift for the orchestra's
patrons. That Is why the ALL
Beethoven program was decided
upon.
Both the concerto and the Fifth
Symphony come from the period
when Beethoven was at the zen
It'll OF his creative power. The con-
certo was produced in 1906. The
early part of that year brought
the Three String Quartets dedicat-
ed to Count Raxumovsky and the
Fourth symphony.
The concerto was completed In
December for the violinist. Franz
Clement, who played IL for the
first time at concert In the
Theatre-an-der-wein two days
before Christmas. Since the piece
was not completed I'm time for
rehearsal. Clement performed II
at sight.
The Fifth symphony was given
It's initial performance also around
the Christmas season--on Decem-
