comes to sum it up on the
stump, we might be able to say
that the administrations fiscal
policy is boiling down to tighter
credit. higher interest and less
money"
Farm Price Drop Is Issue.
The Democrats expect the
drop in farm prices. particularly
in cattle, to provoke one of the
strongest reactions against the
G.: O. P.
Farm prices" Senator Mon
roney says, will be tremendously
important in areas where the
Republicans have had things
pretty much their own way. The
standing joke out in my country
is that the white-faced cattle are
all red-faced because the $500
Democratic cows are being fol-
lowed by $50 Republican calves :"
The policies of Secretary Of
Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson
and his fellow-Cabinet members
have even inspired the Senator
to write a poem which he has
started using at Democratic rail-
lies:
THE budgets out of balance,
The tax cuts blown away,
The moneys tight; defense is
light,
Big business has its way.
THE promises made are broken,
But the folks will get a
change;
Fifteen-cent steers now shed
their tears,
And Ezra's alone on the range.
"A hundred days of the COP,
A term that's full of terrors.
1t spun its wheels, made tide
lands deals;
No runs, no hits, just errors"
Gore Sees Favoritism.
What Senator Gore refers to
as the administrations favor
itiSm toward vested interests"
comes under several Subheads in
Democratic planning. The deci-
sion to permit private industry
to build the proposed Hell's Cam
yon dam in Idaho is one ex-
ample; the turnback of Gov
ernment-built synthetic rubber
and synthetic fuel plants to pri-
vate buyers is another. Senator
Hunt sums it up as "a growing
trend away from developing our
natural resources.
Secretary Dulles, apparently
well on his way to becoming as
much of controversial figure as
Dean Acheson, will be a Demo-
cratic target.
I'VE Democrats thought we
were going to get some miracu-
lous new foreign policy" Sen
ator Long remarked. 1T doesn' t
seem to us that all this trans
Atlantic calling is any
great improvement"
AS for taxes. the budget and
Korea, the Democrats are look
ing forward with some relish to
having their say on them.
so many extravagant, and as
it turned out, unnecessary,
promises were made last year, "
Senator Hunt says, that the
Republicans can't possibly meas
ure up. If they don't cut taxes
as they said they would, If they
don't balance the budget, and
if Korea is still going on, we
will be prepared to discuss those
issues quite as fully as the Re-
publicans did when we had the
responsibility for them"

Democrats Select
8 Issues 10 Stress
In 1854 Campaign
By Allen DruN

The Democrats may not have
the nerve to tackle President
Eisenhower personally in Con-
gressional campaign-talk next
year. But they've selected these
issues so far:
l. The cut-back in defense
spending, particularly the Air
Forces.
O., The increase in interest
rates on ernment-backed
loans to veterans, farmers and
businessmen.
3. The continuing sag in farm
prices.
4. Alleged "favoritism to vested
interests" shown by the mil
lionaire's administration"
5. The cut-back in funds for
social services administered by
the Welfare Department.
6. Apparent confusion in for
eign policy. which the Democrats
say is exemplified in the chang
ing statements of Secretary of
State Dulles.
7. The budget and taxes.
3. Korea.
Differ on Attacks on President.
Members of the Senate Demo-
cratic Campaign c m m tie e,
charged with major responsible
ity in planning strategy for the
battle to win control of Congress
in 1854, are of two minds on
whether they should attack the
President.
Senator Hunt of Wyoming
says: ANY one who attempts
to attack man who ran up the
popular majority Eisenhower did
last November will not make
much progress"
Senator Long Of Louisiana is
inclined to agree, though he
comments: THE President, after
all, has the final responsibility"
Senator Gore Of Tennessee be-
lieves: when he approved the
defense cuts, Ike became a tar
get"
Senator Monroney of Okla
homa suggests: likes still on
his pedestal. but the pedestal is
getting a lot of hicks in it.
Maybe we should just let nature
take it's course for a while and
see what happens"
Took Note of Weak Spots.
Whatever their uncertainties
about the President himself, the
Democrats have no doubts about
politically weak spots in his ad-
ministration. And they don't
expect him to straighten many
Of them out between now and
rotten egg throwing time.
The defense cut-back is ex-
pected to be a major issue.
II think it will be hard for the
country to understand" Senator
Hunt comments.
ITS the Presidents admins
trative responsibility" says Sem
ator Gore bluntly.
The raising of interest rates
Is another sure issue. The adj
ministration has just hiked the
rate on CT housing loans from
4 to AZ per cent, most FILA
housing loans have been given
the same boost, and the Treasury
has further drained off potential
loan money by offering 81 billion
worth of 30-year Government
bonds at 31a per cent interest.
This adds up to one of the
major "pocket-book issues" they
will have in 1854, the Democrats
feel.
Senator Long says the in
creases will simply push the
financial burdens of the country
off the rich people onto the
poor people"
Its getting harder and
harder for the small borrower to
get money from his bank or his
lending institution" Senator
Long says. When the time

Another Voice executive said
yesterday the State Department
had been hamstringing tele-
vision as a propaganda weapon
against television.
Richard w. Hubbell, TV di-
rector of the Voice, told the
Senators that ito put it very
bluntly, the State Department
has been paying lip service to
the idea of international tele-
vision while doing virtually
nothing about it"
Williams S. Halstead, presi-
dent of initial. Inc, a private

firm, also testified. Both Mr..
Halstead and Mr.. Hubbell said
the United States was losing
ground in the international TV
field.

NEW 1883 MODELS
Evening star., 1953-05-13
By Fronk SortweII, Jr.

A former East Side New York
waiter, who set the art world on
it's esthetic ear with his first eX-
hibition of paintings. left town
yesterday, after setting up
show here.
He is Walter Philipp, Sc, who
paints only clowns and circus
scenes. He comes by this special
ty honestly-he was clown be-
fore he was a waiter, and his
father and grandfather were
clowns.
Nearly all his paintings, done
in vivid gouache, are heads Of
clowns. They are seen under a
flood of multi-colored light, as
they would be in the circus ring.
Almost all are sad-joyfully col
ored, but sad of mien. Some of
them will be shown at the Veer-
hoff Galleries, 1912 Connecticut
avenue. NV.
OCSdA "OIh ia 404Ss
Mr.. Philipp began painting in
1947. without any previous art
training. His son. Robert, now a
makeup man with NBC televi-
sion, had just been sent overseas.
"The room was too empty for
words" he said. II went out and
bought an easel, brushes and
paint. I guess I always had it in
my heart-it came like lightning
from nowhere" he said.
When he sat down to do that
first picture, a clown was his
natural subject. After awhile,
he found he had three clown
paintings on hand, so he took
them to the Third Avenue deli
cateSsen where he was dealing
out the pastrami.
The owner let him hang the
pictures among the salami and
bologna. One day Hugh S. Stix,
president of the Artists Gallery,

He never got to eat it.
Mr.. StiX became so enthusias-
tic about the paintings that he
rushed off TO his gallery to ar
range for an exhibition, leaving
the food untasted. At that show.
40 paintings were snapped up by
eager art collectors at $100
apiece.
It's been the same with shows
since. The paintings have a sort
of "tragical-comical pastoral
historical" air to them that many
people find irresistible.

ciZed a halt in construction OF
two powerful short-wave stations
and said they would be needed
'''if the lights go out anywhere
in the world because of war"
Julius Ross, acting chief OF
The Voice engineering division,
told a Senate Foreign Relations
subcommittee that work should
be resumed on the stations, To-
Gated in the States of Washing

The State Department had
halted the work on the ground
that the locations were not suit

Mr.. Ross said it was his divi-
sion's opinion that both stations
known as Baker West and Baker
East, would serve as most effec-
tive instruments" in the cold wal
as well as strategic reserves in
event Of a hot war.
Disagrees With Data.
The stations would give the
Voice the two most powerful

Red Division in Laos
Shoves Spearheads
South Toward River
BY the Assoeiofed Press

HANOI. Indo- China, May 13.
"A single powerful division left
behind in Laos by the Commu-
nist-led Wet Mimi was proving
a headache today to the French
and Laotian defenders of the
little mountain kingdom.
All that remained to write finis'
to Moscow trained Ho Chi
Minis invasion of Laos was for
the defenders to uproot the Wet
Minis crack Division 304-but
it appeared a tough proposition.
This division, behind a newly
erected strong defense line, was
concentrated around the town of
Xiengkhouang, 18 miles south of
the Plain of Jars in the heart of
the kingdom.
The French had no explana-
ton why they didn't attack from
their entrenched position on the
plain, where they have concen-
trated superior power in arma-
ments supplied by the United
States. Instead they seemed to
be waiting for the lone enemy
division TO withdraw from Laos,
as the other divisions have done,
or make a direct assault on
French positions.
Instead the division showed
spearheads southwark taward
the Mekong River. Reaching the
Mekong would. give the division
access to rich rice-producing
land. The French would be faced
with the problem of building up
new defense positions all along
the river from PAX Sane to Vien-
tiane. the Laos government S
capital, 80 miles to the west.
The French have admitted that
Wet Mimi troops are within 35
miles of PAX Sane and some are
north of Vientiane.

pickering.
The expense Of such project
would be insignificant compared
to some of the suggested uSages d

Wardlow, local landScaper, would
be glad to look over the site and
estimate the probable cost of turn
ing it into a park. l haven't been
able to contact him yet - the guy
is always on the go - but in any
case, if the work is accomplished.
it should be done by local con-
tractor. Too much of our money
is going to Miami outfits who
promptly slip it up to Miami.
Undesirable Elements
The first block II Simonton St.
has always been a place for evil
and criminal deeds. Without lights,
it has proven to be an. ideal site
for robbing shrimpers and leaving
them unconscious in the dark.
There has been murder committed.
1t is an attractive spot for per-
verts. Young boys and girls find Il
an ideal location to park their cars

knows, it has none Of the enhance

inviting to tourists.
And so, once again "ThiS Rock
of Ours" urges the City Fathers
to consider building a small park
at the site mentioned. II also
would like citizens to express their
opinion to these commissioners
with regard to the subject.
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1953-01-10

Outside of cur curio shops, Key
West as a tourist town caters prin-
cipally to younger people. The
town is loaded down with bars,
nightclubS, and fifth-rate clip
joints" Many of our visitors do
not care for that type of entertain
ment. The elderly people especial
ly want to enjoy quietness, the
beauty of our tropical plants, and
the serene peacefulneSs that comes
from sitting and looking at the
multicolored waters and the pas
sage of boats and ships.
I'm indebted to the Rev. Meek
er of the Congregational Church
on William st. for calling my at
tention to the large number of
tourists who drive down to the end
of SimontOn St. to watch the boats
pass. Neither the County nor South
Beach provides such a sight.
Now to get down 20 brass lacks. q.
The City of Key West owns a
section of land bordering Simonton
St, and the waterfront. There was
talk last year of tearing down the
old cisternS that occupy this land
and building a swimming pool 1t
was a proposition that This Rock
of Ours" fought because it smacked
too much of a political hand-out
for contractors and concession
aires - even if we disregard the
fact that children would have to
cross the heavy traffic of the Is
land to use it. We need to improve
our natural resources before Great
ing artificial ones.
| don't think the Rev. Meeker and
Paul Touchton, (the latter being
pastor of the Old Stone church,,
would object if this column uses
their names in saying that they,
along with This Rock of Ours, "
would like to see a small park
with benches on The City-owned
land across from Curry Sons on
SimontOn St. Both of these gentle
men have dedicated themselves to
