All States have two Senators.
But conferees would still have
to determine whether Hawaii
would get one or two House
seats. Alaska would get one.
Aid for Alaska.
Because most of Alaska con-
sists of Federal land, the Alaskan
bill contains a number of special
provisions to help that territory
economically to get on its feet
as a State. These include:
About 80 per cent of the land
area, or 103 million acres, would
be turned over to the State
gradually over Is years: special
highway grants would be made
for Is years: the new State would
get half of the United States fur
seal monopoly; SIS million ap-
preparation would be made for
State surveys and harbor i'm
provements. and a 100000 ap-
preparation for elections and a
constitutional convention.
Hawaii has a population of
100000, and Alaska nearly
10000.
Senate Republican Leader
Knowland fought for passage of
the combined bill. He told his
colleagues that IF you believe
in statehood for either territory,
vote for this bill or statehood will

visions attacked repeatedly on
the east and southeast.
Foe Attacks Wildly.
In today's assaults, the Wet
Mini followed their usual pat
tern of wildly screaming charges,
hurting grenades, firing rifles,
pistols and machine guns and
swinging long bladed knives.
The Wet Mimi tried time ana
again to breach the barbed wire
mazes protecting the heart of the
fortress by tossing long bampoo
poles charged at the tips with
high explosives and by throwing
in dynamite.
The rebels sprang wildly out
OF their long string of foxholes
and winding trenches to make
swift, short-range assaults.
Behind these spearheads came
more Wet Mini troops out of
the low-lying surrounding hills.
The French defenders smashed
back the rebels each time they
tried to drive deep into the
southeastern and northwestern
network of defenses.
The fall of either sector could
clear the way for the rebels to
dash into the heart of the rain
soaked red dust which makes up
the plain of Diem Bien Phu.

A French News Agency dis

regular Wet Mini troops in
Indo- China had crossed the
frontier from Laos into Cam

not yet known in this first pene-
tration Of Cambodian territory.

Meanwhile, reports received in
Washington indicated the in
vading force was about the size
of a battalion, 600 men. Also it
was believed that the garrison of
the town Of Voeum Sal, imme-
diate objective of the thrust, was
no larger than 200 men.

Five hundred other LILA men
stood across the street until dis
persed by police. One man was
arrested on disorderly conduct

The so-called "Pistol Local" is
dominated by Harold Bowers,

Eisenhower Plans
No Further Appeal
For Farm Program
By Allen Druy

President Eisenhower said to-
day he has no plans for a further
appeal to Congress or the coun-
try for his flexible farm price
supports program.
|. At the same time the PreSi-
dent told his weekly news con-
ference that he still believes the
bulk of his legislative proposals
will be approved by Congress.
Speaking on the eve of House
debate on a general farm bill
. extending the present rigid price
supports system for one year, the
! President said he has stated his
position as clearly as he knows
. how.
Terrible Effects" Cited.
. That position, he said, is that
the present system, based on 80
per cent of parity, has caused
!. terrible effects by creating agri-
cultural SURPRISES which have
. cost the Government more than
: Sc billion in price supports.
Gen. Eisenhower said If he
could think of any more per-
: suasive arguments he would
! make them, but that he has
: already put his case as strongly
: as he knows now.
. The present program, he said,
-has created a back-breaking job
!. for the Government.
. For 1854, he said, we have to
: have a program that gets away
from these terrible effects.
The Presidents discussion of
the farm issue was touched off
sby a question asking if he agreed
with the theory that the Repub-
:licans lost control of the House
in 1948 because of farmers dis
satisfaction with Republican
flexible price support proposals.
Not a Political Analyst.
At that time, Gen. Eisenhower
commented, he was not poll
tical analyst and he doesn't
know now why the Republicans
lost in that year. He said he is
not particularly interested in
turning back and unearthing
- every mistake of the past. We
Sshave a problem to face now, he
e~Said, and he is trying to develop
"a program which will be in the
chest interest of the farmers and
the country.
Questioned on his views on Re-
publican chances of success this
November, the President said
= that there seems to be a great
interest in casting every public
figure in terms of a prophet
Politics, he said, is something he
knows very little about but he
believes the American people
want a well thought out, COM
prehenSive program for both
foreign and domestic affairs put
before Congress.
=, That, he said, his adminiStra-
ton is attempting to do, and he
90, believes that the great bulk OF
the program will be enacted into
r. law.
The President spoke as Re-
publican House leaders cast about
for an acceptable compromise to
avert a party-splitting fight over
his farm program.
Speaker Martin acknowledged
to newSmen there has been tall
of a compromise, but it hasn't
Preached the point where you car
make a prediction"
= II hope we can bring about g
=compromise," he added.
: No voting was likely today.
Supports Out of Bill.
The bill the Agriculture Com
mittee recommended to the
House was stripped of the Presi-
dents program of flexible price
supports. Such supports, the
administration argues, would
tend to eliminate SURPRISES by
lowering supports when produc-
ton is high, and to stimulate
