Guard Grows in
Cyprus Trouble

LONDON, May % (P.-Secur-
ity officials were reported today
to have tripled the Duke of Edin-
Iburgh's bodyguard after wide
spread rumors that Cypriot ter
rorists have slipped into Britain
to try to kill Queen Elizabeth's
Greek-born husband.
The Home Office and Scotland
Yard declined to discuss the re-
ports of increased security pre-
cautions for Britain's royal fam
lily-and for members of Prime
Minister Eden's government -
but an informed source said:
1.-THE Dukes guard is three
times as large today as it was
before and other precautions
have been taken concerning the
safety of other persons in the
United Kingdom"
The terrorists were rumored to
be plotting to assassinate the
Duke in revenge for the hanging
by the British of two Greek
Cypriots last week.
Greek-Speaking Cyprlots, who
want their Mediterranean island
united with Greece, are staging
a campaign of violence against
the British who govern the is
land.
Two More Killed
The rebels have stepped up
their assaults since the execution
of the two Cypriots. Concerted
outbursts with bombs and small
arms yesterday at Nicosia, Lii
maSsol and Famagusta took the
lives of two persons and left
six others wounded. Five of the
wounded were British soldiers.
The Duke of Edinburgh was
Prince Philip of Greece before
his marriage. Some Cypriot ex-
tremiSts now consider him a
traitor to Greece.
Scotland Yard has set I'D
check points at British ports, but
the movements of Cypriots are
not easy to follow. AS citizens
OF the British Commonwealth,
they move about as freely as
do British residents.
Taking no chances, Scotland
Yard has issued automatic pis-
tolls to the men guarding the
royal family. Sir Anthony and
members of his cabinet. Body
guards and police usually are
unarmed.
Queen Mother Protected
Queen Mother Elizabeth was
reported to have been sur
rounded by squad of Scotland
Yard men when she visited the
Chelsea flower show here yes
terday. Extra guards were on
hand at London Airport when
the Duchess of Kent and her
daughter, Princess Alexandra.
returned from a months visit
to Rome.
The Duchess is the former
Princess Marina of Greece.

made today and the bill will be
taken up on the floor June 6.
House Republican eader
Martin of Massachusetts, said
it was too early to tell what
may happen to the bill on the
floor.
Representative Vorys, Republi-
can of Ohio. who tried to hold
the reduction to $500 million in
committee, said the reduction is
too great. But he wants to survey
the situation before deciding
whether to resist it in the House.
Senate Appeal Possible
The administration still has a
chance to appeal to the Senate
even if the House Sustains the
cut. Actually, the administra-
ton asked for only SAT billion
in new spending authority, but it
intended to ask the Appropria-
tions Committee for SAG billion
by including some funds which
were authorized last year but not
appropriated.
The House committee made a
gross cut Of $12 billion, of which
81 billion came from military
aid and the rest from special
funds the President requested
for use in Asia and the Middle
East. The committee increased
defense support and economic
aid In other areas by S91 million,
which made the net reduction
$1.1 billion.
Supporters of the deep slash
argued that, with the unspent
balances from prior years, the
Defense Department still will
have enough in military aid for
the next two years or more. They
also contended the cut will not
affect $3.50 million request of
the administration for develop
ment of special weapons.
Sees Cut in Weapons
But Mr.. Vorys took issue with
these arguments.
THE best information I can
get is that it will cut into the
new special weapons program. u

Save Transmission
From Junked Car
By w. F. SCHAPHORST. ME.

By w. F. SCHAPHORST, ME.
THE TRANSMISSION in an old
automobile is usually in pretty good
shape because the gears are used only
for starting. So don't throw it away.
1t may come in handy. Or perhaps
you can sell it to someone who needs
it for variable-speed drive.
For example, this writer knows of
an instance where a 4-speed automo-
bile drive from an old car was put to
work driving shop tool that required
four speeds. The transmission was con-
nected to the machine through the
automobile universal joint. Which
means that the universal joint is also
useful and should not be thrown away.
Of course, it is foolish to keep parts
that are just about worn out. But it is
pity to throw away those parts that
are hardly worn and that can be put
to good use.

Montana Crop Standardization
Depends on Approved Seed
By RALPH MERCER

sold at a price which is comparable to
our commercial grain price.
1t appears that under the present
proclamation, provision is made for the
control of the importation of large lots
of certified or registered seed which
have not been treated for the control OF
diseases. But when seed is treated, this
grain becomes wheat, unfit for human
consumption with no restrictions. Fur
Their, while the duty on wheat is q cents
a buShel, wheat which is classed as
wheat, unfit for human consumption
comes in at a duty rate of per cent
ad valorem. Under this procedure there
is a vast difference in the duty paid
and consequently in the selling price of
certified seed.
In one report the conclusion reached
was that the total production of certi-
fled wheat in the states involved was
not sufficient to take care of the seeding
requirements of these states, and thus
the Canadian imports were helping the
United States in meeting the annual
seed needs.
What folks in far away places do not
understand is that the crop standardized
ton program in Montana is based on
the planting of the major portion of the
acreage with approved seed. Certified
seed lots are used primarily to keep in
supply the approved seed, which is pro-
duced by planting certified seed. but
which is not carried through the certi-
fication program.
It is our understanding that two bills
are now b e ore Congress, which if
passed, will help correct the policy of
treated seed coming into this country
without being counted against the total
allotment and at much cheaper rate
of duty. The fact still remains, how
ever, that there are millions of bushels
of cereal grain in the provinces that
are not under support program that
will find takers for seed purposes at the
sacrifice of our seed producers in Mon
tana.

Soils and Crops

We're heading into another produc-
ton year not knowing how we will
come out. Personally, l presume we
have all made resolutions that by this
time have been thoroughly broken and
we are back again in the same old
habits and the same old tricks. If it
weren't the time of year when we have
just finished a spending spree to make
sure our family had a Merry Christmas,
or to make sure that a friend of ours
didn't give us more expensive present
than we gave him, we wouldn't have
thing to worry about, except maybe
where income of 1855 vanished or how
we are going to meet the income tax
deadline. More trifles, but just enough
to turn our ulcers on full blast and
keep us from giving full attention to
the things ahead.
Big Crop
The year of 1855 helped us produce
one of the largest crops in terms of
yield per acre that we have ever har-
vested and most of that crop was har-
vested and out of the way before the
chilly blasts, that came early, really
got under way. That crop is history.
What about 1856?
To make a prophecy in Montana
you must be a newcomer or something
else, so best we let it go at that. We
do know that the winter wheat crop
that was seeded was much smaller
than was seeded in the fall of 1854
and most certainly that which was
seeded went into the winter in worse
shape than it has for number of
years. Unless something unlocked for
happens, there will be heavy reseed-
ing program in effect next spring. Not
only will it be to reseed abandoned
winter wheat acreage, but to seed that
acreage that wasn't seeded to winter
wheat
We know, too, that the early winter
has placed quite drain on the forage
supply that early in the fall looked like
it was more than adequate Winter
ranges have not been available as much
of the time they have been covered
too deeply with snow to be usable 1
might be good judgment to look vel
to the hay piles and if they won't g
all the way to good green grass, thel
they should be supplemented befor,
the going gets rough and the suppl,
is not adequate or of good quality.
Seed Imports
From what we can gather other state
are about in the same position as Nor
tana with regard to the importation G
certified cereal grains. Last issue
pointed out the squeeze our certifie
seed growers were in, because certifie
seed from Canada is bling imported an

Federal share stems from au-
