Nov Alger Hiss enters the
controversy about the Yaita
Conferences in an effort to get
the Democrats on the hook
they have been on since f945
because of the sellout Of Po-
land and Nationalist China.
Maybe his views win be de-
bated in the 1856 political
campaign, for, in an article
he has just written, he doesn't
hesitate to make q derogatory
reference to the 1852 Repub-
iican platform plank on Yalta.
Hiss. who was q member Of
the United States delegation
at Yalta, seems to have lost
none of his brazenness during
bis long absence from public

Soviet Russia that made the
concessions at Yalta and
that almost everybody sang
the praises Of the Yalta agree
ment at the time 1t was made.
Writing in the current issue
Of the Pocket Book Magazine,
Hiss says In part:
Cleaned Of the srnudge of
epithets, the Yalta story is
that uawarranted and large
scale concessions were made to
the Russians which resulted In
Soviet leadership in Eastern
Europe and the accession Of
the Communists to power in.

otherwise.

unanimous hymn Of praise was
the original response to the
agreements reached at Yalta. g

there were dissents such as
those hy the leaders Of the Po-

Farm Freedom
To Be Stressed
BY OVID A. MARTIN
Associated Press stan Writer

II there is to be any overall
limitation on farm production
next year, the Eisenhower adj
ministration will leave it to
farmers to impose it upon them
selves.
Secretary Of Agriculture Ben
son indicated yesterday the ad-
ministration does not intend to
propose or to impose restrictions
beyond those already required by
legislation enacted before World
War II. In fact, it wants to go
in the opposite direction-to-
ward greater farmer freedom.
The Secretary sketched further
outlines of new farm program
proposals the administration is
preparing for presentation to
Congress next month. He talked
with newsmen at the conclusion
of a two-day meeting of the
Governments l8-member Agri-
cultural Advisory Commission.
81 Billion in Surplus
Overproduction and the result
ing accumulation of more than
81 billion worth of surpluses are
accepted on all sides as major
factor in a prolonged decline in
farm prices and incomes. These
declines have become a major
political issue.
Mr.. Benson told newsmen new
measures will feature soil
bank plan under which pay
ments-totaling $500 million.
next year-would be made TO
farmers who take land out OF
surplus crops and put it to grass
and trees.
But, he declared, this plan VIII
be absolutely voluntary" Farm
ers would be free either to take
It or leave it and continue the
production of any crops except
those under marketing quotas
Those are wheat. cotton, tobacco.
peanuts and possibly rice.
In a recent tour of major
farming areas. the Senate Agri'
culture Committee found many
farmers urging use of rigid Gov
eminent controls to require all
farmers to take a portion of their
tillable land out Of production
until the surplus problem is
solved. ..
But the administration will
have none of this. Mr.. Benson
indicated.
In fact, proposals high on Mr..
Benson's list for presentation to
Congress would ease present re-
strictions on corn and on wheat
produced for livestock feed,
These proposals might we'll en-
courage greater. rather than less,
production Of these two major
crops.
To Speed Up Use of Surplus
The Secretary said that aside
from the voluntary soil bank
plan, the administration would
stress measures to speed up dis
posal of present farm SURPRISES
and to protect family type farms.
Disposal measures, he said.
would include an increase in
grants and donations of surplus
food at home and abroad, in
Guiding the school lunch pro-
gram and the armed services. as
we'll as an enlarged barter pro-
gram. But Mr.. Benson ruled out
the use of food stamps to channel
SURPRISES to low-income groups.
Help to the family-type farm
would be provided in the form
Of "liberalized" credit and special
treatment under price support
programs.
An overall limit--possibly of
$25, 000--would be set for the
amount of price support aid that
would be extended to a single
farm. Such a limitation has
been urged by some farm leaders
as a means of diScouraging a.
shift to a pattern Of corporate
type farming.

spoons Worcestershire sauce,
70 cup chilli sauce, salt and

add vegetables and cook until
vegetables are tender. Add
rest of the ingredients and
simmer about 20 minutes.
This is a very small recipe
and, of course, can be enlarged
as may be necessary.
Put the barbecue in a large
bowl on a table with a large
platter of rolls and some Of
your favorite coleslaw and
then watch those hungry teen
ayers dig in. Potato chips are
a welcome addition to the
table, too.
P. S.-This is a good meal
for Dads stag parties, too.
And to save money, buy your
