CLEVELAND. Dec. IA P).-A
new class of chemical compounds
which may prove to have wide
commercial use-for example, as
insecticides and wood preserva-
Itives-have been developed with
the help of atomic rays. a Uni
lversity of Michigan scientist
said today.
DR.. j. j. Martin said they are

carbons. produced by making
chlorine and certain coal-tar
derivatives react vigorously ID

material.
One such compound, he said,
has long been produced CONNER
Icially with the help of ultra
violet radiation. This particular
one is used as an insecticide.
! But DR.. Martin said the Mich
igan research had produced a
variety of different compounds
of this class and that, moreover

The research, done with ra-
dioactive cobalt, opens up pos
sibilities of using waste fission
products which result from the
operation of nuclear reactors, he
said
Dr.. Martin told reporters
about the development in ex-
planning a technical paper on
the subject which he read to
the Nuclear Science and Engi-
neering Congress here.

Practical Farm
Program Near,
Burgess Says

CHICAGO. Dec. IA .(P.-An
Eisenhower administration off,
Icial today told farmers that "a
practical. realistic farm program
is now being threshed out" in
Washington.
Word to that effect was
brought . to the annual meeting
of the American Farm Bureau
Federation by w. Randolph Bur-
gess. Undersecretary of the
Treasury. }
Mr.. Burgess did not spell out
any details in a prepared speech.
but he predicted:
1.-THE solution ito the farm
problem) which succeeds will
follow the fundamental princi-
piles of freedom. integrity, indi-
vidual self-respect and conf
dence based on the economic
soundness that have made this
country great"
Cites General Economy
Mr.. Burgess spoke more about
a sound general economy than
about agriculture. He said:
"a strongly based general econ
fomy is an essential background
to any sound solution of the
farm problem. A sound general
economy stimulates rising stand
. ards of living, higher standards
Iof nutrition and increased de-
mand for farm produce.
Sound money undefgirds a
high volume of world trade"
Eisenhower administration
leaders have given top priority
to a farm program to be SUBJ
United to Congress in the 1856
Legislative session.
Full details of the program
have not been made known.
President Eisenhower. in mes
sage to the federation's conven-
ton yesterday, spoke of the ad-
ministration's program for farm
prosperity geared to stability and
peace" His message drew ap-
plause from the delegates.
Sees Balanced Budget
:, Mr.. Burgess said the Treasury
has "real hope for a balanced
T budget" But he made no men,
ton of any prospective tax re-
, auctions.
He did say that, with the
recognition that our tax rates
are too high for the maximum
dynamic growth of the economy. -
duced under the Eisenhower
taxes and spending had been re-
stewardship. He added
The roadblock in the way of
further substantial economy is
the cold war and the imperative
need it imposes to keep our
country's defenses strong"
Federation awards for distin-
guished service to agriculture
were presented last night to Sen
ator Anderson. Democrat Of New
Mexico; Senator Aiken. Repub-
hcan Of Vermont, and Harry j.
Reed. dean of agriculture at Pur-
due University.

that his party would carry the
South.
The Senator accused Presi-
dent Eisenhower of making a
lot of mistakes in his foreign
policy.
AT the Geneva Conference
the President did not have any
program for his Ambassadors to
carry out" the Senator said.
Senator Kefauyer said the
United States had lost a lot Of

In q speech prepared for a

among the big issues in the 1856

Hand in Glove
Solves Case of
Missing Ring

- HUNTINGTON, w. Va. (P.-
Mary Elizabeth Reeser, a Mar
shall College junior, thought she
had lost her high school gradua-
ton ring on the campus.
Mary's mother had bought a
pair of gloves for her brother.
Warren. The gloves didn't fit and
he tossed them on the mantle
to be returned.
Mary Elizabeth happened in
from classes soon afterwards,
saw the gloves, tried them on,
and they didn't fit her, either.
Mrs. Reeser returned them to
the store.
Some weeks passed until
Mary's uncle. Edward Reeser,
visited the store. He was looking
for a pair of gloves. He tried one
glove on, it fitted perfectly and
he bought the pair.
Later, at home, he tried on
both gloves. Inside was a high
school ring, class of so, initiated

from what detectives said was a
suicide attempt--while her for
mer husband waited for a chance
to see her.
jess Barker flew from New
Orleans last night after learn
ing that the red-haired film star
had been rushed to a hospital
by detectives who broke down
door and saved her from what
2Was termed an overdose of sleep
ing medicine.
Her doctor wouldn't let him
see her last night. She was de-
3scribed as in satisfactory" con-
dition, but Mr.. Barker said her
physician said she was mot yet
fully recovered"
4 Miss Hayward, IS, was found
unconscious in her Sherman
Oaks mansion before dawn yes
Aerday by detectives called by her
mother. Two empty sedative
bottles were found near the pa
jana clad actress.
There were no notes, but
friends believed she was despon-
dent over a long dispute with
Mr.. Barker. They were divorced
in August and bad feelings arose
later in arguments over the up
bringing of their twin sons,
now 8.
On his arrival last night Mr..
Barker, looking tired and hag-
gard, told reporters: II want to
get to her bedside. I want to
talk to her.
At Cedars of Lebanon Hospital,
however, he was refused admis-
sion to her room. He said he
would go see his sons, instead.
Her physician said Miss Hay
