Continuing, the Pondera group as
serted, "The real question is this
What is a fair price for farmers?
Since farm prices are being made in
Washington, let's make sure that they
are made fairly, honestly and equit-
ably. 1t should take just plain de-
cency to back up a program that 5
fair"
Getting to the nub of the matter
here in Montana, they asked:
''Should Benson be allowed to
cut Pondera county wheat prices to
Al cents a bushel below the Demo
cratic Senate farm bills 90 per
cent of parity?
1.-THE Democratic Senate Farm Bill
will return supports to 900 of parity
for top quality basics. Benson lowered
supports to 839o of parity in 1865,
and has cut them to 1870 of a fair
price for 1856. Benson has other
schemes in mind to cut farm income,
too. In the 1856 support he is using
a so-called "modernized parity" which
is neither modern nor related to par
ity, but is simply a scheme to cut
farm prices further. This cuts the
parity figure another SO in 1856
and $50 annually after that.
"You don't have to remember all
these figures. Just remember that
Benson wants to cut Pondera county
wheat prices by Al cents a bushel.
That's the issue-shall Pondera coun-
ty wheat bring Sligo bushel under
the observation-disclosures program, or
$2.13 under the Democratic Senate
Farm Bill program of 90Ho of parity?

DO JAPANESE WOMEN MAKE
BETTER WIVES?

Whether Japanese w m e n
Make Better Wives is discussed
pro and con in December TAN.
The question arose in 1854 when
Negro GIS in Japan accounted
for 1890 of the $4,000 marriages
that had been permitted there,
and another 1000 who had been
united in Shinto marriages, un-
recognized by American author
tiles. Moreover, 5000 more Ne
gro applicants were refused per-
mission to wed Japanese girls.
Back in the States an army
of Tilted beige bells wanted to
know what the almond eyed
Orientals' had that they lacked.
In short they wondered: Do
japanese women make better
wives? To learn the truth TAN
conducted a survey a among
American GIs with Japanese
wives, Red Cross workers STA
toned in Japan and marriage
counSelorS here in the United
States. Most differences among
the two groups of women ap-
pears to stem from one fact-sex
education as taught in the two
countries.
Regarding the American bug
aboo sex, Japanese girls are
taught about the birds and bees
as imperSonally as their ABCS.
They are not told that sex is
nasty business that men insist
on, and they don't feel martyr
ed when practiced, making their
husbands feel that they are
doing them a big favor sex-wise.
Another point in favor of the
Japanese women is that they
are taught from childhood to
be obedient, don't nag, don't
criticize their husbands short
comingS, nor try to make him
over.
Since most men would rather
marry into their own society,
rather than chance the prob
lens that a mixed marriage
sometimes brings, the American
woman has an advantage over
her Japanese counterpart, and

Wickershom Gives Doto
On His Realty Deals

Representative Vic kerSham
Democrat of Oklahoma, said to-
day he has given full reports to
the counsel for both the Senate
and House Public Works Com
mittees on his former ownership
of the Gold Mine property near
Great Falls, Md.
The property is being consid-
cred by the General. Services Ad-
ministration as a site for a new
$22-million headquarters build
ing for the Geological Survey.
On March IA, he sold 355 acres
to Swanson Associates of Biz
mingham. Mich, for $427 500. He
bought 375 acres IA months ago
for $242, 900, according to Mont
gomery County land records.
There was no interest in the
Government OF anybody else
when We bought it. We bought
lit for development. 1t was all
open and above board. l never
tried to sell it to the Govern
ment." the Congressman said.
Cost $3.50 an Acre
Although the records indicate
he paid $3.50 an acre for the
land, Mr.. Wickersham said 9TH
er costs ran up the price to $3.50
an acre. He sold it to the Swan
son interests for about $1,000
an acre.
The other 20 acres from the
original tract were sold earlier
to the lockwood National Girl
Scout Camp for $1,000 an acre,
or $4,000.
Mr.. Wickersham denied he was
in the real estate business here.
He said he quit the real estate
business eight years ago, after
engaging in the business during
a two-year gap in his congress
sional career.
He said that during his period
OF ownership of the Gold Mine
tract he gave an option to M. M.
and Evelyn Behrman of New
York. who subdivided the land
into 212-acre lots for a housing
development.
After the option expired, he
sold to the Swanson interests.
Other Sites Considered
He emphasized that the Gold
Mine property is just one of a
half dozen in the area being
considered by the GSA. How
ever. Thomas B. Nolan, director
of the Geological Survey, pointed
out yesterday. that the site must
be located near a river. The Gold
Mine property overlooks the
river.

The project was supposed to be

but Norman Pritchett, State
Roads Commission chief engi-
neer. said SIS parcels of rights-of-
way remain to be acquired.
He said the State cannot af-
ford to pay commercial prices for
the parcels needed, even though
they may be adjacent to COM
mercial property.
Senator Northrop said most
commercial landowners along the
pike "are willing to take any
price to get the road widened."
He said the commission has
offered go cents a square foot for
land that is worth $3.50 to So
