HOUSTON, Tex. Sept. 81 up.
Secretary Of Agriculture Ben
son declared today the previous
Democratic administration had
handed the Republicans a meat
package of carefully fused
bombs" in the form of the prob

income.
And now. he added. the Demo-
Gratis are blaming the Republic
cans for the explosion.
In a speech prepared for a
meeting Of the Texas Citrus and
Vegetable Growers and Shippers
Association. Mr.. Benson said the
Truman administration had Gre

This administration" he said,
has been kept busy for nearly
three years putting out fires,
cleaning up the debris and at
tempting to rebuild our agricul-
tural economy upon a solid
foundation. It has not been an
easy job. But we are making
substantial progress.
Mr.. Benson said the Eisen-
hover administration is not
satisfied with present farm prices
and income.
The secretary insisted, how
ever. that the answer was not
to be found in higher farm price

Senator Fulbright inquired If

which he said is the underlying
strength of the market, and in
new cars.
The GIN official said last De-
cember he. estimated that 10 per
cent more new cars would be
sold this year than in 1854 and
as a result of sales thus far he
has revised his estimate upward.

right" Mr.. Curtice said. adding
that this year could well be the
greatest year in the history Of
our industry"
In prepared testimony, Mr..

Contempt Conviction
And Year in Jail
Appealed by Trdub

Abraham Traub, New York
lawyer, was found guilty yester-
day Of criminal contempt by
Federal Judge F. Dickinson Let's
for failure to produce certain
records before a grand jury.
Judge Let's sentenced Traub
to serve one year in jail.
The contempt finding was for
failing to produce the records be-
fore a grand jury investigating
any criminal conduct in the Fed
eral housing program and for
failing to answer a question re-
garding the records.
Traub's counsel, John j. Will
son. Immediately noted an ap-
peal. Judge Let's denied bail
pending appeal, declaring there
were no substantial questions Of
law involved. Later in the day.
however. Judge Henry w. Edger-
ton of the q. s. Court of Appeals
for the District of Columbia set
Traub's bond at $4,000, pending
appeal. The bond was posted.
The contempt finding followed
a two-day hearing in the U. S.
District Court for the District of
Columbia.
Traub, attorney for large real
estate interests, had been Or
dered by the court to bring in
and identify certain records to
show fees received by him from
1917 to 1858. Traub was to
bring in the records, identify
them and the court was to rule
later if he raised the constitu-
tional question of fear of possible
self incrimination through in
spection of the records by the
grand jury.
The Government, through
Justice Department Attorney
Max H. Goldschein, asked that
Traub be found in contempt for
failing to produce the records.
Mr.. Goldschein is in charge of
the grand jury investigation
into the Federal housing pro-
gram.
Attorney Wilson argued dur
ing the hearing that the Govern
ment had failed to prove that
his client had not brought in all
of the records in question.

Mr.. Curtice said General Mo-

economy indicate:
/. The country should achieve
a gross national product of $500
billion in the early 1960s, COM

2. BY 1862 the population may

8. Number of households

4. Assuming full employment,

to hear.
Musically, the performance,
which is by Georg Solti and
forces of the Frankfurt mu-
scum and opera, is a brisk but
unhurried one which has a
good deal to recommend it.
It has less sweep and devo-

and the soloists are not up to
Elisabeth Schwarzkopf and
Hans Hotter of that earlier set,
but so much more of the music
