Potato Growers Plan
Lower Acreage In 81

The nations potato stocks ON
January !, 1854 were about 6 per
cent larger than last January and
commercial production in 1853 was
: per cent greater than in 1852.
Prices dropped about 50 to so per
cent, and growers have indicated
they plan to cut 1854 acreage be-
tween 7 and p per cent. This sum
mary Of the potato situation, based
on L. S Department of Agriculture
data, is made by George Stevens,
agricultural economist AT the Uni
versity Of Maryland.
Commercial potato production in
Maryland increased II per cent in
1858 and growers prices dropped
about 80 per cent, says Stevens. In
other states the winter and early
spring crops increased 81 per cent
about 1852 and the late spring and
early summer production was up
about 30 per cent. In the intcrmcdi-
ate and late states, where most Of
the potatoes are grown, production
was only per cent higher than in
1852. All potato areas suffered
sharp price drops in 1853.

DEWITT S. HYDE

President Eisenhower has de
livered a sharp answer to his crit
les who say his Administration is
either too liberal or too cousnva-
tive: 1t is neither.
Prompted by Il reporters ques-
ton, the President said his govern
mcnt is liberal in dealing with in
G,Nlduals but conservative in eco
no,1ic and money matters. His lib
cral" policy toward individuals
means encouraging their widest
participation in setting policies.
Farmers. for instance, can attcst
to this because a great many Of
them were members of his natl M
al agricultural advisory commission
which helped write the new farm
program.
His conservative" policies in
economies and finance, he said, are
best shown by his new budget. For
inner presidents have sought to in
crease the government debt at
faster rates in order to accomplish
their programs. He has cut eXpcn-
SEES two years in a row, and is work
ing toward the day when the
budget will be balanced. At the mo-
Imcnt, the rush into further debt
has been slowed, and taxes have
come down, too.
Two other conservative atti-
tudes of the new Administration
have impressed me- In his housing
program, the President has called
for an experiment" He wants to
give the FILA authority to insure
long-term loans Of modest amounts
with low down payments, so the
many poorly housed, low-income
families can begin buying homes,
instead Of having to rent them in
fcderally owned projects.

What's the most important telephone call you ever

Fairbanks Woman Asks Delay Statehood Pending An Alaska Referendum
Continued from Page One)

Continued from Page One) voted for it, I'd be one of the first to change" she declared.
 She has met with members of the House Rules Committee, the House and Senate Interior Com mittees and Speaker Martin. She has also been to the White House but conferred with an aide.
 T didn't bring gold nuggets or forget-me-nots, just the facts," she declared, referring to memen- tos given the President by pro- statehood delegation which visit ed last week.
 Among her arguments, Miss Stuart contends Alaska has nei- ther the population to support statehood nor to warrant the les sening of the value of the vote of senators from more populous states.
 She believes too much of Alas ka's economy is based on govern ment construction-''let's wait a year or two after the boom and see what happens
 She suggests also that estimates of Alaska's population brought out in Senate debates and com mittee hearings have varied so materially that Congress should vote money for a census of the territory in 1855 to see what the population actually is.
 She indicated only one reserva- tion about her stand during the interview.
 "The Senate bill," she said, lis such beautiful bill I wonder if when we're ready we'll get as much"
 Then, as if to answer her own question, she added:
 But if you can't afford it; you shouldn't buy it."

Chinese Reds May Be Preparing to
 Attack NatiOnalists

TAIPEH, Formosa, R-A sharp increase in aerial action off Chi na's Chekiang Province the past few days has stirred speculation that the Communists may be pre- pairing an attack on island bases held by Nationalist forces off the coast.
 A Nationalist official said yes terday there is no indication that an invasion is near, but acknowl- edged that stepped up aerial at tacks are aimed at disrupting any plans the Communists may have. The official also acknowledged that Red invasion could come with little advance warning.
 The most important of the is- land bases is Quemoy, just off the China coast across the Formosa channel. Next in importance are the Tachen Islands off Chekiang, northern anchor for the string of offshore Nationalist strongpoints.
 It is in the vicinity of the Ia chens that Nationalist fighters have clashed four times in the past week with Communist Mig jets. And it is in this area that Nationalist pilots claimed to have sunk two Red warships-one of 1,5OO tons and one of 800 tons this week.

 In that report Stassen portrayed free world trade with the Com munist bloc as whole as declin- ing in 1853. While commerce with Red China crept up at least tenn porarily, he said, "the glittering prospect of a vast and lucrative trade" which traders envisioned with the Chinese mainland twas not materializing."

Bill to Ban Interstate
 Liquor Advertising Called Step to Prohibition Return

WASHINGTON. R-A liquor industry spokesman Thursday called a bill to impose a nation wide federal ban on interstate liquor advertising "a step to the return of national prohibition"
 As opponents of the proposal took their turn before the House Commerce Committee, R. E. Joyce, vice president of the Dis titled Spirits Institute appearing as an industry spokesman, de- clared in prepared testimony:
 "This bill should be recognized for what it really is "a clever attempt to erect a sizable obstacle in the path of orderly sale of alco- holic beverages as step to the return of national prohibition by a minority who, if they had their way, would completely prohibit the manufacture and sale of the product
 The current hearing represents the fifth time since 1947 that Con- gress has considered measures to bar interstate dissemination of all coholic beverage advertising in newspapers and magazines, and over radio and television.
 Spokesmen for temperance and church groups gave the proposal their solid backing "Wednesday.
 They assailed beer and liquor promotions as "totalitarian brain washing" Lying propaganda" a means of recruiting youth to all coholism, and "one-sided glori- fication" of habit-forming drink" :"

Senate Committee to Make Searching Inquiry Into Allies Trade With China

WASHINGTON, Chairman Bridges R-NFD said Thursday the Senate Appropriations Committee will make a searching inquiry" into the extent to which free world Allies have agreed to relax bans on trade with Red China.
 Bridges plan for an investiga- tion of this issue came after Sen. Mccarthy told the Senate We'd nesday it would be criminal folly" not to cut off US. financial aid to nations which ship "the sinews of military and economic strength" to the Communists.
 Mccarthy had barely finished his floor address before foreign aid administrator Harold E. Stas- sen shot back with a statement that what the senator said was fantastic, unbelievable and un- true"
 Stassen, who has tangled with Mccarthy before, said we are steadily building for peace under Eisenhower leadership" And in an obvious reference to McCar- thy's televised tangle with Army officials, Stassen declared Sen. Mccarthy is frantically reaching for diversionary headlines after the sorry spectacle of his record in recent hearings"
 Mccarthy, in what he said was a painful and unpleasant" dis cussion of Republican "shortcom- ings," called for the listing by Stassen of ''every type of material which we have agreed that our Allies can ship to our enemies"
 Bridges said in an interview Thursday that the appropriations group, which passes on foreign aid funds, already has taken cognizance of Stassen's statements indicating a weakening of the ban on trade with the Reds"
 We will want to go into this

 Raymond Moley went into the problem in a News week article He showed that merchant marine of is absolutely essential-yet we lag far down the list of nations, in seventh place. in private ship structiOn. His conclusion Subsidies in accord ance with shipping acts, which, incidentally the only government subsidies that subject to capture plus sound shipbuilding program correct the unfortunate and nauSpciOuS state of maritime affairs"
 An excellent plan to create such program has been offered by spokesman for the Committee of American Steamship Lines. In his opinion, it would encourage private and institutional lenders to invest up to $2,500000 ,000 in U. S. ship construction Under it the government would insure mortgages on the ships under rules and stipuations that would fully protect the taxpayers interests The time for action now Ii in future years to have for celebrating National Maritime Day.
