The world champion New York
Giants undoubtedly will have a
contented squad on hand when
spring training begins at Phoe-
nix March /.
After a team wins a world
series, it usually has trouble
when contract signing time
comes around. But the Giants
have experienced little difficulty
in getting their players to agree
to terms for the 1855 season.
Two pitchers, Hoyt Wilhelm
and Ramon Monzant. were added
to the fold yesterday to bring
the total to 33. Only Sal Maglie.
Bob Lemon and Foster Castle
man remain unsigned.
Wilhelm Gets $4,000.
Wilhelm, the knuckleball re-
lief ace, had a 1874 record last
season and a 2.l1 earned run
average. It is estimated he will
receive about $4,000.
Monzant appeared briefly with
the Giants last season. The
Venezuelan Highlander won II
and lost 7 with Minneapolis.
Meanwhile, the Cardinals
signed their oldest and youngest
players-Pitcher Vic Raschi and
Shortstop Dick Schofield. Raschi,
nearing SO, accepted a $4,000 re-
duction to $4,000 after an SO
season. He won his first five
starts for the Cards, but then he
was hit on the foot by drive
by Frank Baumholtz of the Cubs
and had trouble regaining his
form after the injury.
Schofield is o 19-year-old
bonus player who was used most
ly as q pinch-runner last year.
The Phillies signed two promis-
ing rockies. Pitcher Tom Casa

Agriculture Benson has "watered
down" the Humphrey plan by
removing the Standards I had
provided to safeguard farmers
and consumers alike"
The result, Senator Humph-
rey said. would give Mr.. Benson
instead of Congress the power
Of decision over how much land
should be taken out Of eultiva-
ton and how much the farmers
should be paid for doing so.
Various soil bank plans have
been suggested with this basic
idea: Farmers would be paid so
much an acre by the Govern
ment for planting grasses in
stead Of other crops on land not
needed for food and fiber produc-
ton. This would help cut down
on surplus production and at
the same time improve the grass
bearing soils fertility Of future
years. Land thus set aside would
be said to be drawing fertility
interest In q soil bank"
Earlier this year. Senator
Humphrey said, the G. o. P.

Number of Farms
Drops II Per Cent
lin 4-Yeur Period
By the Associated Pres.

The Census Bureau yesterday
reported the number Of farms ir
the United States shrank by
900, 900 between 1850 and 1854
more than one-tenth.
In 1850. the report said. the
Nation had 5,SS2.162 farms; by
1854 the number was 4.782.393-
a drop Of Ill per cent.
This was the sharpest decline
over any comparable period evel
recorded by the bureau. The 1854
total was smaller than in any
year since 1890.
Declines were reported in every
State except Flbrida. which expe-
Irienced a IL per cent rise.
The report said it was the
smaller farms, for the most part
that went out of existence in the
first half of the decade. Nearly
half the decrease was noted In
farms of less than so acres, ano
about two-thirds was in farms
with annual production valued al
less than 81 200.

bank payment plan as unlikely
to work and as too costly.
Now, Senator Humphrey said,
Secretary Benson has adopted
the same idea, with variations of
his own.
mo wonder I question Secre-
'tary Benson's sincerity" Senator
Humphrey said. Obviously
something has suddenly changed
his mind. Perhaps 1t is q rude
awakening to the fact there is
an election next year. and farm
ers are after his scalp"
The Senator said Secretary
Benson is circulating a proposed
administration bill that will be
sent to the new session Of Con-
gress. This draft bill, Senator
Humphrey said. would write
Benson a blank check with no
standards as to how much land
should be taken from produc-
ton how much farmers
should receive"

Los Angeles. Calif.-The "ulti-
mate" in reader loyalty was
reached by a Tribune reader in
for away North Dakota this
week.
Grafton, N. ID. reader William
f. La Plante, a frequent CORES
pondent TO the Tribuneland a for
mer resident of Los Angeles,
wrote that he had sent his United
States Senator, Milton II. Young,
at Washington. copy of the Trib-
une, and recommended to him
that he subscribe"
The issue he mailed the Senator
wasn't quite up to par --- Mrs.
Lomax did not do her usual good
editorial; but. promised La
Plante, wait and see what she
does week after week.
Il thoroughly enjoy reading the
Tribune, and you can read 1t with
profit" the North Dakotan told
his representative.
The reader also advised the
Senator--and the Tribune takes 1t
as a compliment, that he started
to mark certain things (of in
teresD but gave up. Maybe
you can read all of it,"
He called the paper "an out
standing example of presenting
local clos Angeles) and national
politics"
Reader La Plante also stumps
for another Negro editor and pub
lication, Cecil f.. Newman and
the Minneapolis Spokesman, and
st. Paul Recorder, which he said
opened up what l might call a
new world for me when he talked
about the race problem in the
United States. For many years, l
have been a subscriber TO his
newspapers, and I have certainly
learned a lot about the race sit
uation in the United States.
Reader La Plante commented
that Unfortunately, there are
not very many Negroes who will
talk frankly about their prob
