Disposal
Surplus Food
Is Discussed
BY EDWIN 3. HAAKlNsoN

WASHINGTON R - Sen. Aiken
(R-Vt) suggested today that the
government consider using surplus
food and farm products to encour-
age Communist satellites to break
with Soviet Russia.
81 believe that donations of corn
and other food surpluses helped
Yugoslavia carry out its break
with the Kremlin," Aiken, chair.
man of the Agriculture Committee,
said in an interview.
Administration officials are cur.
rently seeking some way to dis
pose, at not too great a loss, of
some six billion dollars worth of
farm products piled up under gov
eminent farm price support pro-
grams.
Aiken said that when the Yugo-
slavs were desperately in need 4
food and livestock feed, U. S. do
nations meant more than any kind
Of propaganda, and he added:
''f fellow is hungry, his politi.
cal ideologies are liable to take

The senator said he favors Of
fering East Germans all the sur
plus food they can use. Following
riots in that Communist controlled
area last summer, this govern
ment made food available in West
Germany for East Germans who
dared to come and get it. Many
did.
Aiken said he is of the opinion
that many other Iron Curtain Eu-
ropeans are hungry and FESTIVE
and would welcome a chance to
share in the U. S. SURPRISES. He
said the administration has ample
authority to use large quantities
of the government-held farm sur
pluseS for this purpose.
He said Secretary of Commerce
Weeks probably did the wise thing
in refusing to allow sale Of gov
eminent stocks Of surplus farm
products to Russia or her satellites.
The American consumer sees

the Reds at cut prices" he said.
The Commerce Department,
which controls exports to Iron Cur
tain countries through licenses,
said yesterday Weeks decided as
matter of policy to deny COM
mercial export license applications
for the export for cash Of U. S.
aforementioned surplus agricul-
ural or vegetable fibre products to
Russia or her satellites.
This ban does not apply to such
products acquired by exporters in
the open market. Also, a way was
left open for barter deals.
