There was a terrible sound. I

woman continued. 1--WE are still
very afraid. 1 must leave
please help me leave"
This desire to flee Argostolion
to get to the mountains, to
reach a boat, just to get away
is one of the toughest problems
the rescuers face. Thousands
remain in the hills, flashing their
mirrors because they are afraid
to return to the ruined city.
Fears of Islanders AlIayed.
The fear comes from an old
legend that some day the Ionian
Islands will sink into the sea.
After the earthquake the legend
revived, with reports that the
town was sinking. Then, the
arrival Thursday morning of the
Salem with her 1,500 sailors and
Marines on a mission of mercy,
cheered the people immensely.
On Thursday night almost
5000 filed silently down from
the hills and gathered near the
water front. Out in the bay they
could see the big American ship,
the British destroyer Daring,
four Israeli destroyer escorts and
two Greek landing craft-visible
proof that help was here.
Yesterday King Paul and
Queen Frederika of Greece ar
rived aboard a minesweeper on
an inspection tour. The people
wept and cheered and kissed
their hands, begging help.

Marketing Quotas
On Wheat Approved
By 7-to-1 Margin
BY the Associated Press

The Nations famers have ac-
cepted rigid controls on next
years wheat crop in return for
continued high Government
price supports. In doing so they
eaSed pressure on farm-belt Re-
publican members of Congress
facing campaigns for reelection
in 1854.
The action was approved by a
I'll margin among the farmers
voting in yesterdays referendum.
Returns announced by the
Agriculture Department today
showed 361.392 growers voted
for marketing quotas on the
1854 wheat crop. Only 53,252
opposed. The restrictions will
cut production and sales about
20 per cent from this years 10
per cent above normal crop.
The returns showed favor
able vote of 87.2 per cent-far
above the 6625 per cent required
and the biggest proportion ever
piled up in a wheat quota refer
endum. The Agriculture De-
partment said it expects little
change from that percentage
when the final official tabulation
is made.
The returns showed a favor
able vote of 86.7 per cent-far
above the 6625 per cent re-
quired.
1854 Prices Big Issue.
The main issue in the Nation
wide balloting was next years
wheat prices. The difference in
price resulting from approval
or rejection of quotas could
have been close to 81 a buShel,
or perhaps 81 billion on the
whole crop.
Farm law requires the Gov
ernment to support crop prices
at 80 per cent of parity-about
1920 a bushel in the case Of
wheat-if farmers approve quotas
in times of Surpluses and at only
SO per cent of parity-about
$1.22 for wheat-if they reject
controls. This years support
rate is 1921.
Parity is a price legally de-
clared to be fair to farmers in
relation to what they must buy.
Rejected quotas could have
meant a sharp drop in farm in

States at a time when many
farm area Republican Congress-
men were seeking reelection next
year.
Further Increases Seen.
In this connection, the quota
approval was expected to bring
further recovery in wheat prices
in speculative markets. Quota
tions had dipped sharply on pri-
vate forecasts of a quota defeat.
But prices advanced somewhat

Pressure 10 Admit
Red China 10 u. n.
Predicted by Green
By the Associated Press

Senator Green, Democrat, of
Rhode Island, a United States
delegate to the United Nations
General Assembly, said today
the United States should get
ready to meet a two-stage drive
to obtain United Nations mem
bership for Communist China.
Senator Green said in an in
terview he expected the efforts
to be made at the U. N. General
Assembly meeting beginning
Monday in New York and at the
political conference to be held,
under Korean armistice terms.
within three months. One of
the assembly's tasks is to choose
the U. N. delegation for the con-
ference.
A sharp divergence of opinion
already has appeared between
the United States and Britain on
the makeup of this delegation.
The British were said to be
ready to insist the assembly
place Russia and India on the
U. N. parley team, despite the
United States view that only ma
tions which fought in the Ko-
rean war should participate.
Cooper Would Include India.
A former United States dele
gate to the assembly, Senator
Cooper, Republican, of Kentucky
last night opposed Indian par
ticipation in the political con-
ference on the ground the Asian
country had leaned too much
on the side of concessions to the
North Korea and Chinese forces"
In CHS radio interview
Senator Cooper said also he did
not believe there's going to be
any agreement made at this po-
litical conference which will re-
suit in the unification of Korea"
Senator Green said that al
though the United States car
r1ed a big share of the Korean
war burden, I'VE cannot hope to
dictate the U. N. terms all by
ourselves"
Must Be Willing to Listen.
The Rhode Island Senator
second in seniority among
Democrats on the Foreign Re-
lations Committee, said the
United States must be willing
to listen to the views of its U. N.
partners, while preparing to
meet attacks on it's policies, such
as its opposition to Chinese
Communist membership in the
United Nations.
Congress went on record this
year as being unanimously op-
posed to entry of Red China
into the U. N.
Moreover, the United States
position, made clear by Secre-
tary of State Dulles, is that the
Red China issue is not a proper
subject either for the U. N. ses-
sion or the Korean parIey.

Montgomery Manager Sees County as a Business
By ChorIes [. Hoffman


Montgomery County's new top
official is a businessman first,
then a county manager.
And why shouldn't I be?"
asks Edward T. Beall, who will
take over the county managers
post here September l.
His philosophy is simple.
Operating a government is
not different from operating a
public utility. Actually all you
are doing is operating a group
Of utilities" he explains.
Mr.. Beall arrived here at 4
am. yesterday after a 480-mile
trip from Portsmouth, Ohio,
marked and delayed by an al
most endless amount of car
trouble in the West Virginia
mountains.
Nevertheless, he was on time
for a luncheon engagement at
1:30 pm, then he began a long
round Of interviews, conferences,
picture-taking and house hunt
ing.
Want Home in Rockville.
It was the house hunting that
really brought him and his at
tractive wife Agatha to the
county yesterday. They want a
home, preferably near Rockville,
with a little ground where Mrs.
Beall can do some gardening.
The Bealls-and Mr.. Beall
knows of no relationship to
Maryland'S Senator j. Glenn
Beall-will return to Portsmouth
tomorrow. There he will have
two more council meetings and
will present his councilmen with

ference that is to convene by
October 81. These countries are
understood to be the United
States, Great Britain, France,
South Korea, Turkey, the Phil
ippines, Colombia, Thailand,
Canada and Australia-all of
whom fought.
U. S. Proposal Outlined.
Henry Cabot Lodge, jr., the
permanent United States dele
gate to the U. NJ, outlined the
American proposal to Latin
American delegates last night.
Some came away with the i'm
preston that the United States
would vote against the addition
of India to the list, and would
froWn on adding Russia, but
might not really make an all
out fight against Soviet partici-
patton if Great Britain proposed
the Soviet during floor debate.
Diplomats speculated that a
vote would be overwhelming for
Russia, but close on India.
Mr.. Lodge startled some of
the Latins by suggesting that the
vote of delegates at the politi-
cal conference would not bind
any one except their respective
governments.
Latin delegates reporting this
development said the idea ap-
parently stemmed from Mr..
Rhee, who refused to let other
countries commit the Seoul gov
ernment to any particular course
of action.
One Latin delegate was re-
ported to have asked Mr.. Lodge
what would happen if the en-
tire political conference except
Mr.. Rhee's government reached
agreement. Mr.. Lodge did not
have a firm answer.
May Ask More Korea Funds.
Other sections of the resolu-
ton probably will ask the U. N.
to provide more funds for re-
habilitation of Korea and to
furnish any needed personnel
for the political conference.
The site and the agenda of
the conference would be left to
the delegates to decide. The
United States would limit this
to setting up machinery for
withdrawal of foreign troops
from Korea, and planning po-
litical peace in Korea.
Soviet Delegate Andrei vi
shinsky could snarl the General
Assembly session by asking it to
fix the agenda of the political
conference.
British Minister of State Sell
wyn Lloyd and British U. N.
Delegate Gladwyn Jebb arranged
a private meeting with Mr..
Vishinsky late yesterday, and
outlined British plans for the
coming U. N. session. They gave
Mr. Vishinsky every chance to
indicate Soviet plans
Better Listener Than Talker.
1t was reported, however, that
Mr.. Vishinsky for a change
turned out to be a better listener
than talker and made no Soviet
commitments.
Nevertheless, there were good
grounds for expecting the Sow
let eventually would insist on
participating in the political con-
ference. During debate in the
U. N. political committee No
vember 26, Mr.. Vishinsky himself
proposed a political conference
of II members, including Russia.
eff such a commission sat
down around a table, an agree
ment, if reached, would be stable
something that could not be
expected of a commission other
wise composed" Mr.. Vishinsky
said. His list of proposed men,
bers, included India, and is not
far from what Great Britain now
wants.

THE Hit Parade" on radio
for years but now exclusively
television, no longer entertains
a studio audience.
The program, which specializes
in visualizing the weeks seven
most popular tunes. has worked
out a fairly adequate method
of making music 60 on tele-
vision, turning each song into
an elaborate production number
with scenery and frillS.
This. plus a shift from a rented
theater to a netWork-owned
studio. brought the decision to
omit studio audiences. It's a lot
easier to lay out scenery in a
large studio than it is on the
stage. All the cameras do now
is move from one to another.
When the show had an audience
in Center Theater, there was a
constant shifting of scenes.
Although the program is music
from the start, Raymond Scott's
orchestra is kept largely in the
background. It is one show
using dancers that doesn't go
overheard. 1t has only four. two
men and two girls.
There's one real problem-the
length of time a hit tune stays in
the top seven. The longer it
does, the harder the idea staff
has to work, since it must come
up each week with a different
effect.
It really was adventure when
the American Museum of Natural
History presented the second edi-
ton of it's new CBS-TV series.
Adventure" in which various
activities of the staff are depicted
for the home screens. I thought
it was a much better program
than the opener.
Even my wife, who abhors
snakes, enjoyed the episode which
sought to show that not all snakes
are as bad as the myths paint
them.
The real highlight was a filmed
interview with Armand Denis
and his pretty wife on how they
took movies of wild life in Africa.
The capture of an elephant was
a humdinger. The whole thing
could have run longer than the
40 minutes it was allotted.
1t seems to me this would have
been the show to start off the
series. Anyway. let's hope that
now the pace has been quickened,
the program will keep rolling.
Whenever Jack Benny calls
upon the gimmicS his staff goes
to great length to create, he has
a good show. When he follows
the general comedian technique
of opening curtain speeches he
doesn't do so we'll.
At his farewell on CBS-TV I
got only one snicker out of his
Introductory gags, but the pro-
gram had one of Benny's best
stunts yet-the vault where he
keeps his cash. In saying good
bye for the season he said he
would be back in September, but
he didn't indicate whether he
would have, as reported, an in
creased schedule at both live and
filmed programs.
