True D. Morse said yesterday the
administration has no intention
OF destroying the farm program
which was developed over the
years by Republicans and Demo-
Gratis alike.
He told the National Confer

that there are a lot of good
things in the farm laws and
they will be preserved. He re-
ferred to criticism from some
quarters to the effect the Repub-
lican regime at Agriculture in
tends to undo things that have
been helpful to the farmer.
Mr.. Morse indicated the Eisen-
hover farm policy leaders will
lean heavily on the new Agri-
culture Advisory Commission in
the development of a sound farm
program. And he added that
when the program is fully I'M
folded a number of critics will
be surprised.
Commissioner John C. Doer-
Ter of the Federal Communica-
lions Commission told the editors
that he sees no need for Federal
censorship of radio and televi-
sion programs.
Mr.. Doerfer said public in
dignation" was the most effective
curb on any program that "tran-
sends the bounds of decency and
good taste" He added that a
kelf~policing method way of
keeping the air lanes clean was
both a cheaper and a more eff

TUNNEL WORKERS MAY BETTER OWN RECORD

Tt looks like record month in tunnel driving" L. F. Wiley, project engineer on the Eklutna Project said this week.
 This past week $40 feet of tun- nel were driven he said, with the highest daily record established Monday when 115 feet were dri- ven. Last month the men broke their record by driving over g. 900 feet and Wiley said it would appear now that the total May figure will far surpass that num- Der.
 Work crews seem more stable now, he said in explaining the better progress, and working con ditions are better. They may even hole through by November" '" he speculated.

Refuses Reopening Of Marsha!'s Office

The Justice Department has re- fused to reopen the deputy mar shal's office in Palmer, s. A. An dretta, Administrative Assistant Attorney General, recently in- formed Delegate Bartlett. Neees- sity for economy was given as the reason for the decision.
 In urging reconsideration, Delegate Bartlett pointed to the fact that Congress last year made special provision for additional deputies in Alaska and appro- priated funds for extra men. The Delegate expressed doubt wheth- CT closing the Palmer office actu- ally effected an economy or wheth- CT another officer was added to the staff elsewhere.
