Red Forms Told
To Plant Corn

MOSCOW, May IS R.-Strong
orders went out today to Soviet
farmers to end an "unbearable"
delay in the planting of corn
The farmers were told to get
their assigned quotas of the
grain in the ground within the
next three to five days.
The Kremlin command was
made public last night only a few
hours after announcement of the
United States invitation for a
delegation of about 10 Soviet
farm experts to inspect Iowa
farmers ways with corn and
hogs this summer.
The coincidence, however, did
not appear by Soviet design. The
Moscow and provincial papers
have been packed for the past
10 days with denunciations Of
the farmers failure to follow
through on Communist Party
Chief Nikita s. Khrusrchev's
demand in February that vastly
more corn be grown for hog
food.
