taxation and that the mini
sters of Louis XVI understood
the trend as little as the French
ministers appear. to under
stand it today.
France was confidently ex-
pected by past and present
United States administrations
to become the pivot of, the
NATO defense system. But she
is unquestionably in a shaky
position. Washington has not
paid much attention to the
numerous and relatively small
boils which have appeared with
painful regularity on the
French body polite. Our OPP
timistic officials and legislators
believed that If we subsidized
the French economy and the
unmanageable budget Of the
Fourth Republic everything
would be all right in the end.
There is no doubt that the
Marshall Plan. started in 1947
and continued under various
names and forms to the pres
ent. has helped the French in
dustries and their owners. Eut
only a trickle of the billions
expended on France has
reached the workers and mid
die classes. Under these com
ditions, the strength of the
Moscow dominated Commu-
mist Party continues high. The
conservative French farmers
and landowners don't believe
in communism as q doctrine.
but because of the high cost
of all manufactured products
and the unbelievable incom-
petence of their government in
Paris. they prefer to listen to
the Communist demagogues
rather than those representing
other socialist or rightist po-
litical groups. The promises Of
Messers. Thorez, DucloS and
Co. seem more plausible to
them than the oratorical de-
clamations of the other politi-
clans.
The emergence of M. Pou-
jade. apparently an honest and
politically untainted man,

the many which already exist
in France and may thus fur.

More Secret Conferences Yet?
Proposals for Top eve World PorIeys Viewed Incredible
After Cose of Yoto, Where Principles Were Troded
Dovid Lowrence-

The news continues to be
Incredible. One would have
thought, after the publication
Of the Yalta papers, that the
world would have had its I'LL
of secret conferences at which
statesmen trade away the
principles of international mo-
rality for which American boys
gave their lives. But just the
same, the proposal now is being
made that some more top
level" conferences be held-this
time between Marshal Bull
ganin of Soviet Russia, Presi-
dent Eisenhower, Prime Min
lister Churchill and the Premier
of France.
Senator George Of Georgia,
venerable Democrat who is
chairman of the Senate For
eign Relations Committee. has
brought the idea Of a top
level" conference into the
headlines, though he frankly
says the conference shouldn't
be held till after France rati-
fles the new European agree
ments to permit Germany to
rearm.
This is substantially what
Secretary Of State Dulles has
outlined as a possibility after
the Paris "accords" with Ger
many are ratified. But Mr..
Dulles qualities it a bit by
pointing out that America
would have to see a demon
stration of good faith and
tangible evidence that a con-
ference would be able to ac-
compliSh something.
Again and again the argu-
ment for "top-level" confer
ences has been advanced by
political factions in Europe on
the socialist side who feel that
the peace urge of the people
everywhere can be satisfied
politically by conferences with
the Communists. The idea is
that there is some magic in

(American officials in Wash

French National Assembly has

after the exposure of what

and can be explained only on
the theory that many people

Prime Minister Churchill,

his assurance. This is frustrat-

plagued by other Illustrations.
Among them, so far as current
issues in Congress go, is the or
der of the President and party
leaders to vote against tax re-
duction for the little fellow, a
recognized Democratic politi-
cal maneuver. Most Republic
cans obeyed the President, but
they feel unhappy about it.
They worry over the possible
consequences. Then there is
the split in the party over ex-
tension of the reciprocal tariff
program-a tussle between the
President and high tariff mem
bers of Congress.
When you are losing an ar
gument and are frustrated, a
customary way out is to start
shouting.
That's what "Yalta Re-

It is a noise to distract public
attention from troubles, such
as taxes and tensions in the

Check Moisture
After Harvest
By III. L. DUSENBERRY

THE HEAVY irrigation season is nov
past. Some of the crops are harvested
and the rest soon will be. After harves
is good time to check the fall moisture
situation. don't mean the top mois
ture near the soil surface but rather
the submoisture in the root zone The
The root zone. for most crops, is from
8 to feet deep.
If this Sub-moisture in the second
third and fourth foot of soil is not
plentiful after harvest, it would be well
crop is off This is extremely important
on ground that has grasses or 1egumes
seeded in it. 1t is also important tC
irrigate pasture, alfalfa or hay mixture
after the last crop is off to put it in
good condition for winter
On land which produced a grain but
was not seeded to grass or Iegumes,
irrigation will make the ground easier
to pillow this fall and no doubt take the
place of one irrigation next spring.
The same thing is true with ground
which produced row crops except where
late irrigation takes place on a row crop
it is unlikely that the ground will need
fall irrigation
SummerfaIIOw Principle
For many years the dryland farmers
have been storing moisture from one
year to the next by summerfallowing
When there are no plants growing on
the land and evaporation is controlled
by mulch, there is no way for moisture
to get out of the SOIL Therefore, when
the subsoil IS filled to its capacity,
whatever time of year it may be, the
moisture will stay there until removed
by plant growth or evaporation Some
soil will hold enough moisture to pro-
ruce good crop the following year
without irrigation Other soils require
one or more irrigations for every crop
produced.
In discussing irrigation with many
farmers in Montana this summer.
find that most of them like to delay the
first irrigation of the crop as long as
possible. There are two reasons for
this. First of ali, the crop responds bet
ter to irrigation if it is well established
and shading the ground In the second
place, many farmers believe the plants
root down deeper if they are not irri-
gated too early
On land which has a high water
table, the water level can sometimes be
held down during most of the season
if the first irrigation is delayed. There
is usually no need to irrigate in the
fall if the water table is within three
or four feet of the surface. Under these
conditions, the submoisture usually re-
mains fairly constant throughout the
season
Saves Spring Irrigation
When the subs0il is filled with mois-
lure in the fall, there is usually little
in holding the moisture up
throughout the season. Furthermore,
deep irrigation during the growing sea-
son is not usually necessary and there
fore the water can be moved faster
during the rush season. If most of the
subm0iSture is drawn out during the
growing season and not replaced, the
first irrigation the following year will
