ADA Hits Congress
For 'Timid' Record,
'Give-Away Actions

Americans Tor Democratic AC-
ton took 3 long, hard look at the
second session Of the Republican
$50 Congress yesterday and to
no ones surprise shuddered.
The liberal. pro-Democratic
political organization made It
clear in q statement that it could
f1nd hardly anything worth
praiSing In the session which
ended Friday.
In fact, ADA said sternly, the
record was one Of @expediency,
timidity and inconsistency; Of
shotgun legislation which failed
to provide the needed moral and
legal base for q prosperous Amer
lea and q strong and unified
free world"
In foreign policy, ADA said,
the Congress "failed to meet the
Nations needs In the continuing
battle against Communist Inn
perialisn1." In domestic policy,
1t followed policy Of give-away
and the public be damned" And
as for President Eisenhower, he
"hedged or back-tracked" every
time Congress got balky.
Praises Only Two Actions.
ADA said the SD, Second Ses-
sion. did only two things worth
commencing: Approved the st.
Lawrence Seaway and expanded
social security.
In addition to cutting Point
Four and military and economic
assistance to Americas allies.
the ADA asserted, the Congress
weakened national defense by
cuts in Army and Air Force ex-
pansion programs. On top OF
that. "it failed to follow q con-
sistent policy even In its anti
communism"
1T voted a hodge-podge OF
law to deal with Communists
here at home" the statement
said. land then cut $500 million
from the economic and military
aid needed to assist free world
allies in their efforts to defeat
communism, preserve freedom
and develop strong democracies
in Europe and Asia"
Besides this, ADA said, the
administration didn't follow up
on recommendations of tn e
Presidents special Randall Com
mission which advised cutting
tariffs to aid world trade. Nor.
did 1t remove restrictive provi-
sions Of the McCarran Immigra-
ton Act which the statement
described as STEPPED in racism. !"
"Give-Away Of Resources"
The tax bill passed by Con-
gress. ADA said, will give special
treatment to those in the higher
income brackets" There was q
"give-away of natural resources. /"
Amendments to the Atomic
Energy Act were "for the most
part meaningless and primarily
for domestic political propa-
pauda rIlrf,oSnS Cn,1pd foru,
legislation was "lost in q dis
graceful political tug-of war. y
Public housing legislation con-
tanned impossible restrictions. -
Failure to admit Hawaii D land
Alaska to the Union as States
represented "unadulterated poll
tics"
ADA predicted the voters this
fall will repudiate "those re-

ON 116 444A4A 0406 0A 49, - 1920
A fence now encloses your Agricultural Station but the
gate is wide open. Our services are still extended to all who
need agricultural information or advice and to those who Just
want to come in and look around.
and time invested in the work carried on at the Station.
AS YOU know, one of the main functions Of the Experi-
ment Station is to obtain information from trial and de-
monstration. This information is passed on to local farmers
So that they may improve their practices. But agricultural
experimentation is a long and slow process, for plants re-
ouire time to grow and develop. If accurate results are to
be reached the plants must be carefully observed and tended
during their growth. When an experiment is removed or des-
troyed before it can be followed to completion the work Is
retarded, and the damage is costly in terms OF time and
money wasted.
On the other side Of the fence several experiments are
being conducted. New plants are being introduced into the
Islands that may prove to be of economic value; efforts are
being made to improve the crops we grow, and to discover
Improved legumes and grasses that can be used as forage.
Tests to determine better methods Of putting-up and holding
silage are also underway.
~ One demonstration is now nearing completion. In a de-
monstration vegetable garden only 80 feet from the road
many pounds of vegetables were grown and harvested dur
ing the past months. Were it not for the fence the produc-
ltion records on this plot would probably have been far from
accurate.
Most Of the experiments still require a great deal OF
time. AS soon as they are completed the results will be made
available to all who need the information.
