Churchill and Laniel Scotch Rumors of Franco British DiScOrd

LONDON, R - Prime Minister Churchill and French Premier Laniel flew into London Friday from the Bermuda Big Three con- ference.
 Lapiel and Churchill shook hands warmly for the welcoming crowd at the airport. This ap- peared to be an effort to scotch reports they had disagreements at Bermuda.
 Churchill appeared first at the door of the big stratocruiser. He was bare headed and carrying his usual cigar. He waved z at the crowd, then went back into the plane. Laniel, who suffered a lung infection in Bermuda, continued the flight to Paris.
 Churchill, 79, looked especially fit for his years. He told news men: we have had a wonderful flight, much better than on pre- vious occasions"
 Back home, Churchill faces a threatened revolt in his own Con- servative Party over government policy in Egypt. Thirty Conser- vatives have signed a motion op- posing negotiations with Egypt

Canadian EskimOs Face Famine

YELLOWKNIFE, N.W.T., R - Marauding wolves and failure of the fall caribou hunt reportedly threaten famine for Eskimos in the area around Canada's Arctic Coast settlement of Coppermine
 The tale of disaster was told by young Eskimo who treked into Coppermine, on the shores of Coronation Bay, north of the Arc tic Circle. He said his people were heading toward the settlement, seeking food to see them through the winter.
 The Eskimo said the natives had missed the annual fall migra- tion of the caribou herds and had been unable to build up a meat supply for winter.
 Wolves have destroyed most of the other meat cached away from previous hunts, he added.

PAYING OFF THE NATIONAL DEBT

Several proposals have been made recently for paw
ing off the national debt of something over $3.50
OO0 One proposal concerns u S. sales tax which could
be levied at the manufacturers the retailers level
which would presumably pay off the national debt in
twenty thirty years.
Another proposal which has been made from time to
lime that for Federal intervention into gambling such
heavy Federal tax lotteries or national lottery
This proposal bitterly opposed by many, however and
might not prove practical solution
During the recent debate in the u. S. Senate over
deands oil the proposal made that the u S. Govern
ment be given clear title to the tdeands the revenue to
be derived from these oil lands to be used to retire the
honal debt. This proposal was defeated.
The problem of paying annual interest the national
debt one of such magnitude that any proposal retire
the debt through of income is worth study
u s. taxpayers paying about six billion dollars
year interest which u.s. of course than the entire OPP
Grating cost of the Government twenty years ago. If this
load could be taken off the taxpayers backs the budget
could be easily balanced money could be alo
ed to worthwhile projects such schools highways and
other public works. and taxes could be reduced
Therefore the end in view usfes serious studies of
every proposal made to pay off the debt While the history
Of most countries proves that national debts seldom
paid off, that not sufficient justification for nation as
rich the United States to be complacent about 1884,

Two Most Unpredictable Items
In Battle Over New Farm
Program Are Weather, Public

Up to this time, the weather
appears to be on the side of the
Eisenhower administrations argu-
mentS against continued rigid high
price supports. The prospects are
for good crop weather-which
would mean more SURPRISES piled
on SURPRISES carried over from last
years bumper crops.
The Agriculture Department al
ready is a bit frantic trying to
find storage for wheat and corn
SURPRISES on hand and in view.
They are piled in bins, warehouses,
old hangar sheds, and even ships.
And in these SURPRISES are the
seeds of public discomfort over the
present farm program.
The department has slightly
more than three billion dollars
tied up in farm SURPRISES. This
investment may well approach five
billion by the end of the 1853 mar
keting year if crops turn out well.
This would be nearly a billion
dollars more than the previous
peak reached shortly before the
Korean War.
The larger the SURPRISES, the
greater is the danger of heavy
unprecedented losses through
deterioration and sale at less than
cost.
A bad crop year would strength
en- arguments for continued fixed
high supports. In bad times, the
nation would be fortunate in having
SURPRISES for human and animal
consumption.
The present farm program was
designed to keep a reasonable sur
plus of grains ana other st0rable
products on hand in case of pro-
longed drought or war emergency.
But some SURPRISES have climbed
beyond the point many consider
reasonable and are embarrassing
the government ani farmers alike.
The wheat surplus is around 600
million bushels, the corn surplus
about 800 million. Good growing
weather win boost these totals.
But despite such bounUful farm
production, the farmer has been
edging toward trouble for two

NO REASON TO FEAR PEACE

Secretary of the Treasury George NJ Humphrey re-
Gently said, in his first speech since becoming member
Of the Cabinet that Americans have to fear
peace Mr. Humphrey declared flaty: 1--WE not head

The Treasury Secretary pointed out that the large mil
itary spending program will be continued despite the
change to attain peace in Korea and he supported Pres
dent Dwight D. Eisenhowers ongrange hope that money
saved on rearmament might someday be turned into a
world development fund.

BY OVID MARTIN
and DON WHITEHEAD

WASHINGTON R-The two most
unpredictable elements in the bat
tie over a new farm program are
the weather and the now-silent
voice of public opinion. Either
could have a potent influence in
the fight.
They are factors which cannot
be ignored in any speculation about
the kind Of farm program to be
written by Congress when the pres
ent fixed high.Support laws expire
next year.
So far, there's been little indi-
cation that the general public,
which consumes the farmers pro-
ducts, is choosing up sides in the
conflict over fixed high-support
prices VS.. flexible farm price
props. But it could happen should
people become aroused as they did
against the potato support pro-
gram a couple Of years ago. More
recently there has been some
grumbling over heavy government
buying of butter, cheese and dried
milk to support prices of these
products.
In the case of potatoes the fed
eral government had this crop UNI
der acreage control. But farmers
increased potato yields per acre to
ecord-breaking heights through
generous use Of fertilizer. Then
they dumped the surplus on the
government at heavy cost to tax
payers.
The market couldn't absorb the
supply. Tons spoiled. Neither law
makers nor farmers could argue
effectively against the public'S out
cries, and the potato price support
program was knocked in the head.
The weather can go a long way
to make or break the adminiStra-
ton drive for flexible system Of
price supports for basic crops such
as wheat, corn, Gotten, rice, tobae-
co and peanuts.
These crops are now supported
under law at so per cent of parity.
Parity is a return estimated TO be
fair to both the farmer and con-
Sumer.
