to deal with the farm problem
generally. He repeated that the
administration would have a
balanced farm program ready for
presentation to Congress when
the regular session convenes in
January.
Gen. Eisenhower did not elab-
crate on the possibility of a spe-
cial session on the drought,
which has hit widespread areas
across the Nation and helped
provoke a plunge in the prices
OF cattle which are being rushed
to market partly because of feed
problems.
Suggested by DriScOll.
Dennis Driscoll, Colorado
Springs (Colo.) rancher and
spokesman for $50 cattlemen
who came here this week to ask
for Government price supports
for live cattle, suggested a spe-
cial session of Congress to deal
with the problem because Sec
retary of Agriculture Benson
declined to start a direct price
support program.
Gen. Eisenhower, asked about
this suggestion, told a news con-
ference today that only the
drought outlook seemed to raise
the possibility of a need for q
special session.
Gen. Eisenhower said he
hoped and believed that cattle
prices have reached their bottom
and are now on the way up. He
said they seemed to have beer
largely stabilized recently, anc
have risen in the last few days
He noted that beef consump,
ton is running 80 per cent above
a year ago and that the cattle
population has stopped increas.
ing. He said the Government
had offered special aids tt
drought-Stricken cattlemen.
Lists Steps Being Taken. i.
The Government, Gen. Eisen.
hover said, has moved into the
drought areas in every possible
way open with the resources al
hand. These included credit
cut-rate freight bills and emer-
gency feed supplies.
Gen. Eisenhower also. notec
that the Government was buying
beef for the Army. foreign aic
and for school lunch programs
Nevertheless, he conceded, cattle
prices at this time are far from
satisfactory.
Gen. Eisenhower said the ad-
minlstration farm program to &C
t. Congress IN January will be
comprehensive, taking into ac-
count the needs of not only all
the areas but all commodities
He said it is a tough problem
for instance, to balance grain
needs with meat needs.

the Israelis were defying findings
of the U. N. supervisor of the
Palestine truce that the project
violated the terms of the Pales-
tine-Syrian armistice.
Before the U. N. Security
Council in New York yesterday,
Israel offered to suspend work on
the project while the Security
Council debates the issue.
Calls Action Acceptance.
Gen. Eisenhower described the
Israeli action as accepting ap-
proval given by the Security
Council to findings of the U. N.
truce commission.
AS result, he said. this Gov
ernment can proceed with ar
rangements for economic help to
Israel. He said Secretary of State
Dulles would proceed with spe-
cific plans as soon as possible,
possibly today. He said he was
delighted by the Israeli decision.
The President emphasized that
from the beginning, the United
States aim was to act under
United Nations policies in this
matter and try to support the
U. NJ. without prejudging the
dispute over the Jordan River
project.
Follow Original Plan.
Gen. Eisenhower said the
Israeli aid program would be
carried out now as planned
originally.
State Department officials said
the program involves grants of
approximately $50 million to
Israel for this fiscal year out of
a total of $100 million appro-
priated for aid to the entire Near
East and North African area.
The specific immediate program
is expected to allocate approx
mately SIS million to Israel for
the first quarter of the year.

Magma may be described as
"the mother of rock" Some of
it pours out of volcanoes in the
form of lava. When the lava
hardens, it becomes basalt, obsi-
dian, rhyolite or one of several
other kinds of rock. Some
times obsidian is described as
volcanic glass"
Of equal Importance is the
rock produced by magma when it
cools while still under the
ground. Vast beds of granite
have been formed in this way,
usually at depths of several
thousand feet.
During ages past. the earth's
crust has risen or fallen almost

The action Of ice has been i'm

rock, water has filled the cracks
and then has frozen. When
water freezes, it expands. This
action is powerful, and it makes
the cracks wider.

action as frost wedging." 1t
goes on in modern times. as it
must have gone on through the

spade and ducked in dummy Mr..
Meek won with the ten and re-
turned a cluo, Mr.. Dale running
three tricks in that suit. On the
last club Mr.. Meek flashed the
eight of hearts and the resulting
heart lead to his ace set the con-
tract.
The spades had broken evenly
as expected and Mr.. Abel had
his nine tricks set up all right,
but the trouble was that the de-
tenders took five before he could
collect them.
If he is gonig to bid agrees
siVely. he must learn to play bet
ter. Unless a miracle happened
he knew he would have to lose
three clubs and the ace of hearts.
Obviously, then. he could not af-
ford to lose any spades at all.
His right lead at trick two
was the jack Of hearts. He had
seven top tricks in the other
three suits and he could win two
heart tricks if the queen of that
suit was on his left. This was
$3.50 chance, whereas the way
he actually played the hand was
something like zero-zero
chance.
