Native Dancer Faces
Less Class as Gotham
AT Jamaica Is Split
By the Associofed Press

NEW YORK, April 18.-Alfred
Vanderbilt's Native Dancer will
have his 3-year-old coming out
party today at Jamaica race
track, but with the $50, ,000-add-
ed Gotham Stakes split into two
divisions the result will do little
to clarity the Eastern Kentucky
Derby picture.
Jamaica race track officials
went into a deep hour-long hud-
die yesterday when eighteen s.
year-olds were entered for the
mile and one-sixteenth race.
After once deciding to send
them all out in one big cavalry
charge. they changed signals and
split the race into two divisions
containing nine in each, with
$50, 900 in added cash to each
section.
Native Dancer, unbeaten in
nine races as a juvenile last
year, but unraced this season, got
the better of the deal. In the
luck Of the draw he was placed
in the first division, where the
opposition lacks the class of
those in the second division.
The first division of the race
will be televised and broadcast
on a coaSt-to-coast hookup.
In Washington it will be
televiSed by WNBW and
broadcast by WMAL at 4 p.m.).
Upwards of $4,000 fans are
expected to see the long awaited
debut of Native Dancer, current
Us Kentucky Derby favorite.
In the second section are such
TOUCHES as the Trio Stables
Laffango, winner of the Expert
mental Handicap here April 8
and the next two finishers in
order, Mrs. Wallace Gilroy's
Slim, and the Saxon Stables

Corn Belt Area Seeks
To End Price Props
For Soil Program

LINCOLN. ILL.,. Nov. 10 (CDN !.
"A minor corn belt revolt
against the current Government
farm program is springing from
the grass roots of Central n
t>linois.
A committee has been formed
to carry the fight to the floor of
the Illinois Agricultural Asso-
citation convention in Chicago
next week.
Robert E. Downing. Beason
farmer and leader in Logan
County's Good Government
Council, is chairman of the COM
mittee which is made up of
farmers from nine counties.
The committee has drafted a
resolution, hoping to have it
adopted by the I.A.A., the Ma
tion's largest State farm organi-
zation.
Basis Of the plan is to abolish
high support prices on crops
and substitute, instead, an ex-
panded soil conservation pro-
gram.
Would Cut Surplus Crops.
The plan would result in cut
ting acreage in surplus cash
crops now being sold" to the
Government as the highest bid
der.
It would return free and open
markets. take the Government
out of the crop purchase and
storage business and sharply re-
duce Federal subsidies.
The Government would set up
a schedule Of soil conservation
payments. The payments would
be an inducement for farmers to
reduce their "soil-depleting acre
age" in such crops now in over
supply as corn, wheat, cotton,
tobacco, soybeans and small
grains.
Instead of the Government
taking over huge volumes of the
cash crops to store in graneries
and warehouses, farmers would
be encouraged to increase their
acreage in clovers and alfalfa.
Would Build Up Soil.
These leguminous crops build
up the soil and store fertility
against the day it may be needed
in time of war or drought.
The plan also would increase
production of meats, dairy prod
ucts, poultry and eggs, reducing
the prices of these. food products
to consumers.
Livestock growers, dairymen
and poultrymen welcome the
plan, according to the sponsors,
because it would reduce the high
artificial prices for feed-the
major cost in their production.
Principles Of the Simplified
program were outlined by Mel
vii P. Gehlbach of Lincoln,
farm accountant and farm man
ager employed by several hun
dred top-notch farmers in the
Sangamon Valley farm bureau
farm management service.
The solution would abolish
acreage and marketing quotas
and control from Washington.
Farmers Would Profit.
It would be voluntary. Pay
ments would be such, however,
as to make it profitable for farm
ers to reduce acreage in corn,
wheat and cotton and grow pas
ture, and forage and soil i'm
provement crops instead.
In his explanation of the ad-

gram advocated by his commit
tee would "help the. smaller
farmer who needs help most"
He said it would offer these
other advantages:
More jobs in the cities, since
farm products will pass from
farmer to consumer quicker End
in greater volume. This will
stimulate business, transporta-
ton and processing.
Production of cash crops will
return to areas that can produce
most efficiently.
In times of emergency food
will become quickly available in
the form of meat from expanded
livestock numbers. More fertile
soils will make possible a large
increase in yield when needed.

benefits to producers; adds to
