SUPPORT PRICE CUT ON Undesirable
WHEAT VARIETIES

cites are planted to meet specific
production problems such as drought
or rust resistance, early maturity,
adaptation for modern harvesting
methods and others, they proved to
be undesirable for commercial food
use. The 20-cent per bushel discount
is designed to discourage planting of
these varieties.
Kolstad points out that the an
nouncement is being made in advance
of the planting time for 1956-crop
winter wheat to give producers ample
notice of the new support provisions
so that they may make their plant
ing plans accordingly.
Kolstad also pointed out that even
though some of the undesirable vari-
cites might have protein content high
enough for premium, no protein
premiums will apply to any of the I'M
desirable varieties. The same action
will be taken regarding amber or
hard amber durum premiums.
The USDA announced in June that
price support on the 1866 wheat crop
would be at rs per cent of parity
which will be national average of
not less than $1.81 per bushel.

PIN final arguments at the

Lilies last night, the prosecution
painted the West Point gradu-
ate as a traitor to his country
while the defense, pictured him
as a man Of decision.
Col. Lilies. 39-year -old Birm-
ingham (Ala) career soldier, is
charged with aiding the enemy
and making disloyal statements
while a prisoner of war in Korea
in 1950-53.
The court-martial, in its fifth
week, was expected to go to the

In asking for Col. Lilies con-
viction. 1t. Col. William r.
Cohen OF Newark, N. j., chief
of the prosecution, described the
West Pointers deeds as "a
black page" in United States
military history, worse than the
plot of Benedict Arnold to be-
tray his country.
Col. Cohen charged that Col.
Lilies wrote, recorded and broad
cast Communist propaganda to
improve his own comforts while
in captivity; that he didn't as

Egypt because of its control of

Egypt ruled the country until
