able for Passover. use.
Wheat, rye, barley, oats and
generally speaking all grain and
grain products, and foods and
drinks made from them are sub
ject to the laws of Chametz. Grain
vinegar and products which con-
tain such vinegar as an ingredient,
as for instance pickles, horserad-
ish, etc. are Chametz.
All baked articles such as Mat
zot, cakes, macaroons, etc. require
reliable endorsement by cray"

ual leader. No ordinary flour is
PERMITTED for Passover use at
all. For home baking, only en-

Endorsement is also required
for candy, soft drinks, wines,
liquors, milk, canned food and
dried fruits. All green vegetables
may be used except peas and
beans. Rice also must not be used.
Packaged food products should
be purchased only when the
Kosher L'Pesach" sign, attested
to by a reputable Rabbinical
authority. is obviously part Of
the label printed on the container
by the manufacturers. In any
questionable case, your Rabbi
should be consulted. He will be
happy to advise you.
Children should not be fed
Chametz during Passover unless
a physician has so advised and
after a Rabbi has been consulted
as to procedure.

approval Of the 1854 farm leg
islation.
After a long struggle, the
Eisenhower administration sue
ceeded in scrapping the war-born
law calling for high price sup
ports on basic" commodities. 1t
substituted a measure providing
a more flexible system ranging
from 82l2 to 80 per cent of
parity.
Parity is a standard of fixing
farm prices, declared by law to
give producers fair return in
relation to the prices of things
they must buy.
The new bill, among other
things. would reinstate 80 per
cent supports for wheat. rice,
cotton, corn and peanuts. To-
bacco, the sixth basic crop. is
supported at 80 per cent under
special law.
THE reduction of price sup
ports" Mr.. Cooley said, lis de-
stroying farmer confidence in the
program. If this should bring
about farmer reflections. in their
referenda, of the machinery for
production adjustments, then a
large segment of agriculture
would be exposed to the posi-
bilities of a disastrous collapse
of prices for farm commodities
in the free market.
This chance we cannot ven
ture to take" he said.

is "the crossroads of the West
ern world" He added that

BY The Asseeieisd Press

The House Agriculture Com
mittee, reporting a sharp drop
in farmers income in the past
four years, predicted yesterday
that unless Congress restores
major price supports at 80 per
cent of parity a greater blow
to the farm economy is yet

lowered crop supports.

Resignation Of Bevan
Is Urged by Shinwell
In Labor Party Split
BY the AsSocioted Press

LONDON, Mar. 12.-An elder
statesman of Britain's Labor
movement demanded today that
left winger Aueurin Bevan resign
from the Labor Party "as the
only decent course"
Emanuel Shinwell, 70-year-old
former defense minister. said in
a speech that the persistent
f1outing" of majority party de-
cisions by Mr.. Bevan must stop.
Mr.. Shinwell is a member of the
party's shadow cabinet" which
has recommended that the whip
be withdrawn-party label re-
moved-from Mr.. Bevan in the
House of Commons. This move
for a showdown with the party's
57-year-old rebel Bevan will be
voted on by the Labor Party's
292 Commons members on
Wednesday.
Mr.. Shinwell has been a mill
,tant socialist for a half century.
He also swung we'll to the left
at one time but recently has
supported the party moderates,
headed by former Prime Minister
Clement Attlee. Mr.. Shinwell
and Mr.. Bevan rose from the
coal pits.
Party Splits Cited
During the last four years Mr..
Bevan repeatedly has split the
party by swinging his followers,
sometimes numbering upwards
of 100, against measures sup
ported in commons by the Attlee
faction.
The latest split is over the H.
bomb. Mr.. Bevan demanded
and Mr.. Attlee refused-an as
surance the Labor Party would
not approve British use of the
H-bomb unless it was first used
against Britain.
But the moderate demand for
a move against Mr.. Bevan re-
portedly is based not so much on
the H-bomb split as on his whole
history of feuding with his lead
erS.
Mr.. Bevan himself contends
he is not challenging Mr.. Att
lees leadership of the party but
merely differs on policy.
Party Weakness Learned
Another Laborite member OF
Commons, Anthony Greenwood
expressed fear Mr.. Bevan's loss
would weaken the party in its
next election fight against Wins
ton Churchill's Conservatives
An election must be held by
october next year. Some legisla-
tors think it will be called well
before then.
Conservative and Liberal Party
speakers. seeking political ad-
vantage from the Labor battle
appealed to disgruntled Socialists
to change parties.
The Communist Party issued
a statement purporting to de.
fend Mr.. Bevan and urging "a
cessation of attempts to silence
the left and split the Labol
movement" He previously ha.
been a target of frequent Com.
munist criticism.

Anthony Eden Wins Smashing Vote of Confidence

LONDON, R - Britain has given Prime Minister Eden a smashing vote of confidence in an election that shook the oppo- sition Labor Party to its founda- tions, strengthening Lefists hopes to take over leadership from Clement Attlee.
 Nearly complete returns from yesterdays election promised Eden's Conservatives a majority of 50 to 60 in the 630-seat House of Commons. That guaranteed Eden's government a five year term of office with a working margin triple the 17-vote major ity the Conservatives had when the last Parliament adjourned.
 The result was a tremendous boost in prestige for Eden, who had stood for so long in the shadow of his predecessor, Sir Winston Churchill.
 The outcome apparently re- flected voter confidence in the Conservative free enterprise ap- proach to thes national economy, Eden's success in organizing the Big Four lat the summit talks, and prosperous times under the Conservative government.
 The Laborites took the gov- ernment in 1945, in vote that reflected popular resentment of wartime austerity. The Conserva- tives came back under Churchill's leadership in 1851, winning majority of House of Commons districts but actually tagging be- hind the Laborites in the popular vote. This time the popular vote as well as a majority of districts was firmly in the Conservative column.

Tito Happy But
 Khrushchev Not In First Meeting

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, R - The leaders of the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia sat down together today for the first time in seven years in an effort to patch up their differences on world Com muniSm.
 The mingled aroma of Acacia, SlivovicZ and vodka hung over the conference room of Gardijski Dom, a handsome building on the outskirts of Belgrade, when Presi- dent Tito and Nikita Khrushchev entered, speaking Russian.
 Members of the Soviet delega- ton, who came here almost hum bly, to apologize for kicking Tito out of the Cominform in 1948 and to suggest ways for becoming fast friends again looked tired.
 Khrushchev, the boss of the Soviet Communist party, and his delegation wore the same, wrin- kled suits in which they arrived yesterday. They neither laughed nor smiled.
 But Tito fairly sparkled in a light gray summer suit with razor edge creases. He grinned broadly when he greeted newsmen and photographers.
 The Russians had reason for looking weary. They got up at $ am. to take part in wreath plac- ing ceremonies prior to the ser ious business of the conference. That is hard on Russian political leaders who often work through the night and sleep most of the day.

Eisenhower Proposes Refugee Law Changes Which Would Reaffirm
 Americas Tradition of Sanctuary

WASHINGTON, R- President Eisenhower today proposed 10 refugee law changes which he said would reaffirm Americas "great tradition of sanctuary"
 Chief among the amendments the President outlined in special message to Congress was a recommendation that the law be liberalized to provide for the ad- mittance of orphans to this coun- try lon a worldwide basis"
 Eisenhower told Congress that instructions have gone out for improvements in the administra- tion of the 1853 law, but said these are not enough. There are areas in which action by Congress is needed, he told the lawmakers.
 Tn the past the President him. self has spoken critically of the handling of the program. Some Democrats in Congress have criti- cized the administration on the same basis.
 The President made no call for revision of the provision author izing admittance of a total of 214,000 refugees over a three year period ending Dec. 31, 1956-
 As to the 10 amendments he recommended, Eisenhower said:
 ''The enactment of tn e changes will permit effective ad- ministration of the act by the executive branch of the govern ment and greatly aid the success of the program.
 ''The persons permitted to enter the country under the program will make a fine contribution to the body of our citizens. And we shall again reaffir1n that the great tradition of sanctuary lives on in America"
