Article Tells Of
Religious Bias

One of the sorest spots In
Americas Christian conscience
is the fact that the worship OF
God is still being conducted on
a predominantly Jim Crow basis,
declare Lee Nichols and Louis
Cassels in the February Readers
Digest.
No condemnation Of the
churches for hypocrisy can be
made. however. without citing
two facts in their defense:
first. they face a more diff
cult task than do the schools;
second. many churches have
conceded the sinfulness of seq
regaiion and are taking steps
to end II.
The Digest article, condensed
from Harper's, says the move
ment toward interracial worship
started at the end of World War
ii.
In 1916 a survey OF 1900
Protestant churchehs showed
that only $50 had racially mixed
congregations.
In the same year the Federal
Council of Churches formally
declared that segregation is
unnecessary and undesirable
and a violation of the Gospel oil

crop amounted to 3,1S4 4,S36,000 bu-

Given favorable weather conditions,
| believe The Corn Belt will "gO to
town" again this year. Meanwhile,
forecast higher average prices
for old-crop corn. and lower prices
for new-crop corn this fall
Last spring farmers indicated
intentions to plant a record 21,-
76O, 900 acres to soybeans-up 1850
from the previous 1855 record.
Nothing has since occurred, as far
as know, to materially alter those
intentions. If weather conditions
remain favorable. the 1855 crop of
soy ioeans could easily top 400.-
100000 bushels and set new rec
ord for this wonder bean. Total
supplies for 1956-1957 should not,
however. prove burdensome. in
view of the government support
program and an expected heavy
volume of total consumption. Some
price weakness could develop this
fall, with recovery to follow.

BABS0N DISCUSSES THE 1856 CROP OUTLOOK

Babson Park, Mass, June 81.
From present early indications,
Mother Nature may be of some as
sistance this year to harassed gov
ernment officials-nOt to mention
overburdened taxpayers re-
ducing farm surpluses. My first
survey of the 1856 crop outlook
points to the lowest prospects in
eleven years. Here are some of the
highlights.
Wheat And Rye Outlook
For the third successive year,
total production of wheat probably
will fall short of the billion-bushel
mark. Output of winter wheat-the
main crop-may be in the vicinity
of 670,O00,000 bushels-down SO
from a year ago and well below
average. If the spring crop amounts
to about 253 100000 bushels, as
expect, the total u. S. crop OF
923, ,00O,000 bushels would be the
smallest since 1943. However, since
the total July 1 carryover threat
ems to top 1,OO0.O0O.00O bushels, to-
tai supplies will still be burden
some.
Rye is doing well in some areas.
less so in others. Its overall con-
dition as of June l was 1870 of
normal, compared with 74qo on
June l.. 1855 and with the f0-year
average of S2To. This could mean
an outturn this year equaling or
exceeding the above-average croD
of 29,1s7 900 bushels produced last
wear. This would be sufficient for
al requirements.
Large Corn And SOybean Crops
Likely
