Secretary of Agriculture
First Of a Two-Part Series)

(First oil Two-Part Senes)
This nat on has a serious farm
1t does rot affect agriculture alone.
It is everIbody's problem.
Today your government has ap-
proximateE $5 billions of your
money INVESTED in farm commodities.
You own outright more than $2.5
billions worth of wheat, corn, cotton,
and other sufplus farm products. You
have outstanding loans on agricultur-
al commodities totaling about the
same amount: This figure is grow
ing daily. i. ~
You are paying more than $14 MIL
lions each month just to store these
surpluses. This bill Is growing, too
as additional inventdFies are .accu-
mulated by yopr govS Sbnments ~
The losses Which ybrr vSrhnens
sustainedin dis posing of just Asmall
portion ofvous hold8pgs during the
first three msnhs Of This fiscal year
amounted to SAT- millions.
But, you ask, don'f W. have a farm
program designed f bsure agricul-
tural prosperity AND pI vent the very
situation we find ohrskves in today
The answer is that I'VE are operaf-
ing under the same farnt prografS
we had last ye4r ahd for Sseveral
previous years. Actually we have
strengthened it n sci oral important
respects to permit fkrhers to take
broader advantage of its provisions
Existing legislation binds us to a
continuation of kprice supports at &c
per cent of parity on basic commod-
tiles through the 1854 crop year.
Nevertheless, farm prices have de-
clined steadily from the record peaks
established under the impetus of the
Korean war in FebrE Eary, 1851. Dur

times bitter Experiences that when
the farmer in trouble, there is
likely to be Il touble ahead for every
body. This year, net farm income is
expected to be nearlySS1 billion less
than it was in 1862. And in 1862 it
was more than 81 Sillion below the
preceding year nile farm income
has been dropping our total national
income has actuall increased.

DR.. Moon had a reputation
among his friends both as an
outdoors man and as a worker
with his hands.
DR.. Moons father died at 10

Medical Bureau Has E Epidemic
OF Persons Seekinq Doctors

The Medical Bureau yester-
day vouched for the fact that
colds and influenza are wide
spread in the District are SIM
ply by checking its record of
phone calls from persons seek
ing doctors.
Calls last week were well above
the average. And last Sunday a
new record was set for the num-
ber handled in one day.
The Medical Bureau is op-
Grated by the doctors them
selves It is located at 1718 M
street NV. in the Offices of the
District Medical Society. Basic
ally it is a switchboard setup.
The aim of the Bureau is to
maintain closer contact between
doctors and patients, provide
strangers and persons without
regular physicians with the
names Of reputable doctors and
obtain medical attention as
quickly as possible in cases of
emergency.
From three to five telephone
operators are on duty around
the clock. Last week was one
Of the busiest since the Bureau
was established in 1910.
The new record was set last
Sunday when the Bureau COM
pleted 1922 calls between pa
tients and doctors. In addition,
it handled 81 emergency calls,
plus 400 from doctors saying
where they could be located and
Is from people who didn't have
a regular doctor and wanted
one.
On an average weekend day,
the bureau handles $50 to ATS

Chevy Chase Scientist Dies
In Tree While 7rin1n1inu It
Dr.. Charles Moon,
Found Best Way
To Measure Ohm

A 67-year-old Bureau of
Standards scientist, who de-
veloped the most accurate means
of measuring electrical guam
titles ever found, died last night
of a heart attack while cutting
limbs from a tree 20 feet above
his back yard at his home in
Chevy Chase, Md.
DR.. Charles Moon was trim
ming a poplar in his yard pre-
paratory to chopping it down.
when he told helper he would
make one more cut and stop
work for the day. He was
stricken before the completed
the job.
The Bethesda Chevy Chase
Rescue Squad took him down
from the tree, to which he was
fastened by safety rope.
Improved Ohm's Accuracy.
DR.. Moon, head of the Induc-
tance and Capacitance Section
of the Bureau of Standards, de-
veloped a new way of measuring
the ohm-the international unit
of electrical reSistance-in 1888.
He and his co-workers greatly
improved the accuracy of this
unit. Their work has allowed
more television and radio chan
nels, and freed radar and anti
aircraft automatic computers of
considerable interference.
The measurements Of DR..
Moon become more and more
important as radio-activity and
cosmic rays come to the fore
front of scientific work.
The International Conference
of Weights and Measures, meet
ing in Paris, tentatively accepted
the Moon system in 1899, a year
after it was published. It was
formally adopted in 1916, the
conferences first meeting after
the war.
Measuring Lights Speed.
At his death, DR.. Moon was
about half through developing
new method of measuring the
speed of light.
During World War II DR..
Moon received Navy award for
work still classified as secret.
A native of Ohiopyle, Pa, DR..
Moon was educated at the Uni
versity of West Virginia. After
teaching there for awhile, he

did a conscientious job in the
Wilson case of constructive op-
position, of protecting the public
interest, by insisting on proper
ethical standards. Even the
heads of giant corporations
shouldn't be above the law"
The legality of Mr.. Wilson's
holding stock in General Motors
Corp. and serving in the cabinet
at the same time was first
brought up by Senator Byrd,
Democrat of Virginia.
Mr.. Mitchell told his audience
the Democrats "are still the ma
jority party" and added that the
party had gained, not lost, con-
fidence among the people in Ad-
lai Stevenson's great 1852 cam
paign." He said the total vote
for Democratic candidates for
the House of Representatives
was actually a quarter Of a mil
lion more than the Republican
vote. The Republicans have
called attention to the fact that
the discrepancy in the Demo-
cratic vote total for the House
and for President was due in
large part to the fact that there
had been no Republican candi-
dates running for House seats
in rs congressional districts in
Southern States.
Says G. o. p. Must Perform.
The Democratic chairman
said that tits going to be tough
er for the Republicans from now
on. They can't get by with
promises. They've got to per-
form. Unless they can out-per-
form the Democrats-and moth
ing in their record indicates
they can-the Republicans are
going to have very short visit
in Washington.
MY advice to Republicans
who have ridden into Washing
ton on Gen. Eisenhower's coat
tails is this-don't sell your
house back home; you're going
to need it Soon."
Mr.. Mitchell warned the new
administration that it Is facing
a serious problem in sliding
farm prices" a situation which
is Of keen interest in the Mid
die West. He said other tests
would come on rent and price
controls and on taxes and the
reciprocal trade agreements act.
IF the President decides to
take a strong stand on the side
OF the people-and against the
special interests-on these ques-
tionS," Mr.. Mitchell said, "then
he'S gong to need our support.
In some cases, our votes can be
enough to assure that the great
programs started by the Demo-
cratic Party under Presidents
Roosevelt and Truman will be
carried on, even in a Republican
administration. Where our
votes are not sufficient, then re-
action and isolationism will be
in the saddle again."
Mr.. Mitchell strongly urged re-
election of Senator Humphrey,
Minnesota Democrat, who comes
up for reelection next year, and
the four Democratic members of
the Minnesota delegation.

CHICAGO - (NC) - Chicago'S S
slums should spur citizens into
writing their congressman to save
the federal public housing pro-
gram, Father Daniel Cantwell,
president of the Housing Confer
ence of Chicago, stated.
Calling for determined efforts
for well-planned action on hous-
ing programs, the priest said,
Morally, we have no choice !"
He stated that ''we must concen-
trate on the defeat of such bills
as threaten our already slim pro-
gram of public housing We
citizens have ourselves to blame
for conditions which exist because
of our apathy and indifference"
He asked support fol- civic, State
and federal action TO build new de
velopments which will replace us
slum areas. Patching up the slum
buildings is not enough" he said
A program of building on vacant
land is necessary"

BERLIN - NC) - The upris-

in Eastern Germany have shown
the world that "the period of to-
talitarian rule over Germany is
past"
This statement was made by
West Germany's Catholic Chancel-
lor, Konrad Adenauer, who came
to Berlin for a memorial service in
honor of Berliners slain in the riot
ing or executed by the Soviets.
Hailing the martyrs of free
DOM" Mr.. Adenauer said: ''An I'M
armed, defenseless people can be
beaten to the ground with wea-
pons, but their will, their determi-
nation will never bow The whole
world has been shown that Ger
mans will no longer bear tyranny,
that Germans will not be slaves"
