Mr. Banning said the new trac-
tors are the 900" and "S00' series.
Both models in the 500 series
the $50 and 860-have new five
speed transnissiOns, and are pow
cred by FOrd's field-prOven "Red
Tiger" 172 cubic inch engine.
Standard equipment includes seal
ed beam headlights and taillight,
safety starter and a new "Rest-O-
Ride" seat, which permits the Op-
orator to "fioat" on a cushion of
rubber.
Standard on the $50 model is
FOrd's new live power take-Off for
the operation of PTO-Operated ma
chimes. With it, the operator con-
trolls the tractor, as well as the
PTO machine. by the regular
clutch pedal on the tractor. In
effect, this gives the farmer the
advantages Of an extra engine, !"
Mr.. Banning said.
'The 80 per cent power boost in
the 800 series is designed TO meet
the requirements Of the farmer
who works larger acreage, whose
soil conditions call for more draw
bar power, and where speed is es-
sential For instance, by pulling
three plOws instead of two, Ford
tractors in the 500 series will do
in four days the plowing it will
take a twO-plOW tractoE. six days
to do" Mr.. Banning pointed out.
The three tractors in the 900
series (the $40, $50, and 660) are
full twO-plOw tractors designed for
primary use by the smaller acre
age farmer and as second tractors
for larger operations. They are
powered by FOTd's "Red Tiger
134 cubic inch engine.
The $40 features 81 improve
ments in engine, mechanical and
hydraulic systems.
The $50 model has all the fea-
lures of the $40, plus a five-speed
transmission for use where a wild
er range Of speeds is needed. The
$50 model has all the features of
the $50 and in addition has live
power take-Off as standard equip-
ment.
Standard equipment on the 800
series also includes safety starter

from Cobb to the annual share
holders meeting in Wilmington,

and returned home via Flint, Mich,
where they inspected the factory
that turned out their family car.
In Wilmington, GM President
Harlow H. Curtice introduced Mr.
Sorensen to 2,749 fellow share
holders, and presented him with
scroll in recognition of becoming
owner number 100000. You have
become an investor" said Mr.. Cur
tice, but you also remain a pro-
ducer and consumer" This, he
pointed out is the essential differ
ence between America and the
older nations. Instead of having
one group that owns the tools of
industry, second that uses them
and a third that, for the most part,
consumes the goods that result,
America nation of workers and
consumers from its very begin
nings-is becoming, by the millions,
nation of owners as well.
In presenting Mr. Sorenson as
"a symbol of strength that under
lies our American economic sys-
tem," Mr.. Curtice gives those who
would disrupt this system some
thing to ponder over. With every
man a capitilist as well as a worker
and a consumer, self-seeking labor
leaders will find themselves dis
armed of their most deceptive
wsapon-class consciousness.

Washington Letter
II. s. Y. 7.

Congressman George Meader
| (Rep) of Michigan, has demanded
of Governor G. Mennen William S
DEM that the executive officer
of his state declare himself as TO
whether he favors "a free economy
or a pseudo-socialistic economy.
The Congressman's ultimatum is
issued in a reply to a letter from
/ Governor Williams claiming that
Michigan dairy farmers had suffered
| grievously under the Administra-
tion's flexible price supports pro-
gram, and urging support for "a
| better system"
Mr. Meader suggests delicately
that the Governor may have been
''misinfOrmed," or that his study
may have been some what super
ficial', and goes on to point out
| that: You apparently are un-
aware that the program flexible
supports) is not yet in effect.
| Therefore, it could not be respOn-
sible for the drop in farm prices.
The drop occurred under rigid 80
per cent of parity law which has
| been responsible for the building
up Of the huge surpluses which
have depressed the market"
Governor Williams had said,
"Our Michigan dairy industry was
the first to feel the effects of the
Administration program and the
results are quite apparent. He
then stated that the dairyman's s
hourly return on his labor dropped
from S1.66 in 1852 to 80 cents in
1854 and his net profit per hundred
| weight of milk from 55 cents to
minus SO cents.
Congressman Meader patiently
explains that dairy price support
reduction from 80 per cent to rs
per cent of parity (under the old
law, not the new flexible supports
measured did not occur until April.
1st, 1854, and that the drops the
Governor complains of occurred
while support prices were still at
80 per cent. He further reminds the
Governor that milk prices in Mich
igan were from II to 16 cents per
hundred weight higher in March
1855 than in March 1854.
Your facts and mine," writes
Mr.. Meader, condemn the rigid
price support policy you urge me
to accept" And he then brings up
point that pitifully few politicians,
the Governor included, have yet
discovered Many farmers F.. be-
lieve that they are capable of
running their own farms and re-
sent autocratic dictation from Was

Washington which necessarily flows
from government rigid price sup

Congressman Meador subtly sug
gests that if the Governor, by any
chance, is dreaming of a bigger

the American public as well as
Michigan voters would very much
like TO have clear-cut statement
from you as to whether you favor
measures tending toward Social
ism or whether you have a sincere
and steadfast faith in the ability of
the American people TO make their
own economic decisions to the
maximum possible extent under
modern conditions"
We would indeed, providing
the Governor has decided which
view will draw more flies.

first formal concert in the univer-
sity's summer recreation series.
The program will be presented by
the Delaware Symphonette under
the direction of Mr.. King next Mon
day evening. June 81, 1855, at S:15
in the Mitchell Hall auditorium.
Similar band concerts have been
held at the University of Delaware
each year since 1949, but for the
first time, a concert will be devoted
entirely to the works of one com
poser, Petr Ilich Tchaikovsky.
According to Mr.. King, the Rus
sion composer was selected because
of the wide popular appeal of his
works and because his music does
not demand too much of the listen
er on a warm summer evening" An
interesting cross section of Tchai-
kovsky's music will be found in the
three compositions to be presented.
Many moods are suggested in the
ballet music from Swan Lake, the
influence of 18th century Italian
composition is evident in Capriccio
Italian, and the strong nationalist
feeling is apparent in the Sym
phony No. in F Minor.
The Delaware Symphonette is
well-known to university concert
goers for it has appeared in con-
junction with the music department
at least three times year for the
past seven years. This group of
thirty-five players has also been a
part of the university summer ses-
sion recreation program for five
years.
This concert and other Monday
night programs during the summer,
which will be announced later, are
open to the public without charge.

But proof Of the speciousness
of this reasoning. SO convtnc-
ing at first glance. Is readily at
hand. II the premise were
correct. how can we account
for the astounding progress
of the Soviet Union in the
field of science and technology?
We have the word of our best
leaders. both in science and in
intelligence, that the Russians
today present a challenge to
the free world in their scientific
accomplishments. Allen Dull
les. head of the CIA, has said
so; DR.. John r. Dunning of
Columbia University says we
have almost lost the battle for
scientific manpower; Brig. Gen.
Woodbury. M. Burgess of the
Air Force has said the Russian
Air Force is at least as good
as ours. possibly better. And
President Eisenhower himself
has said that we have grossly
underestimated the Russians
in the past.
Yet the Soviet Union, with
out challenge, has the most re-
pressive police state. the tight
est and most ruthless security
system. in the world. Of the
current critics of our security
setup are correct. then Rus
sian science should today be
hopelessly primitive, and her
scientists far behind the rest
of the world in their iron
cages.
The facts Of Russian scien-
tific progress conclusively shat
ter the argument that security,
secrecy and science are incom-
patible.

as our scientists, lawmakers
and policymakers, should take
a long look at these facts be-
fore supporting any moves to
soften or devitalize the security

Those are examples. Other
people in other countries are,
indeed, familiar with IVA.
But this idea which has be-
come such a valuable item Of

in many parts of the world,
Is under a cloud here. Not

gon border. as well as to other
links in the Columbia River
system.
Naturally this is hard for
people elsewhere to understand.

to explore the attitude Of
the Eisenhower administration
which represents such a change
from the previous Roosevelt
Truman administrations. They
are giving special attention to
the complicated Dixon Yates
