Camera Query

Mrs. T. C. K, RiUerddle
I would very greatly APP
preciate information from
persons familiar with a mag
azine loading type camera.
We purchased an 8 milli-
meter camera 6 months ago
and are having more than
average trouble with the fin
ished film - too many times
to be a coincidence. Is it
the camera or the film?
Our worst roll was exposed
for only about 5 feet. the
rest of it being a hazy black.
We have been fortunate in
obtaining requirements on
the film, but we are not get
ting pictures. We have had
bad defects in about 4 out
of 7 tries.
Would some reader please
let us know of their expert
ences with this type of cam
era since we are wondering
whether we must try a diff
ferent make Of camera. Many
thanks for any help and to

Resolute Secretary

Secretary of Agriculture Benson
apparently Is a believer in the theory
that the best defense is a good offense.
In any case, he has stepped forward with
a vehement and unequivocal statement
of resolution" to continue in his cabinet
post and push for authority to cut farm
price supports. The timing of his decla-
ration, delivered to a crowded news con-
ference, is significant for number Of
reasons
Rumors that Mr.. Benson would be
squeezed out Of the cabinet, as a polit-
ical liability, have circulated intermit-
tently since the relatively poor Republic
can showing In the farm areas in the
1886 elections. They have increased in
recent weeks, while the Secretary was
on trip abroad and since his return.
And the resignation of other cabinet
Notwithstanding OF Treasury Hum
phrey. Secretary of Defense Wilson and
Attorney General Brownell-seemed to
give impetus to the speculation that he
would be the next to 60.
Meanwhile, indications that the
administration will present to Congress
a program for lower price supports and
looSer acreage controls have intensified
opposition criticism in farming and con-
gresSional circleS-with Mr.. Benson the
principal target. The showdown time Is
nearing. The Agricultural Policy SUBJ
committee Of the Senate-House Eco
nomic Committee has scheduled COM
prehensive hearings for the week Of
December l6. Price supports, production
controls, the soil bank. surplus disposal
and virtually every other plan for help
ing the farmers are slated for discussion
by friendly and unfriendly witnesses.
And barely month hence Congress tt
self will be back in session to move the
battle to an even broader stage.
1t will be the job Of the Secretary
Of Agriculture to carry the fight for the
administration. Mr.. Benson told his
news conference that President Eisen-
hover had asked him in September to
stay on. that he agreed to do so and that
he knew Of no change In this under
standing. BY serving notice that he has
no plans to quit. the Secretary has &C
cepted the challenge Of his critics head
on. The ensuing battle is likely to be
rough. and some Republicans-the ones
who believe he loses votes for them in
the farm States-will not be cheering
for him.

Frank E. Gonnett

Frank E. Gannett, who died yester-

man in the most complete and respected
sense of the term. His career as such
began as a carrier boy At his death,
he controlled and operated % papers,
plus a group OF radio and television
stations. In the years between, he
worked at virtually every occupation in
the production OF newspaper-as re-
porter, editor and publisher. To all
these tasks he contributed not only tai
ent and energy. but high standard OF
dedication to the concept OF an inde-
pendent and vigorous press.
Mr.. Gannett had a strong and sus-
tanned interest in public affairs at every
level-local, State, national and world
wide. A foundation which he established
years ago to carry on operation OF his
properties was enjoined to place COM
munity service above any other consid-

had been cited for his outstanding serv-
ice" to education, to youth and to COM

he had at times been active in politics
and was a candidate for the Republican
presidential nomination In 1910. He
was hard-hitting commentator, in per-
son and through his papers, on our
legislative issues. He Travelled extern
sively wrote on foreign affairs and be-
came an incorporating foe of commu-
nism. While giving his papers a wide
latitude Of local editorial autonomy, he
infused In them the same breadth of
interests and integrity Of thought ana

Political Tiqhtrope

There is seldom. II ever, an of
season" for hunting presidential NOM
ination, and the Democratic stalking
between now and 1860 assuredly will be
diligent. The party's impressive show
ing in the State and congressional cleo
tons Of last year and in the few sig
nif1cant tests last month offers high
hopes for 1860. AT the same time, the
party faces genuine dilemma in draft
ing a platform and ticket that can
escape maximum trouble on the touchy
civil rights issue. Equivocation on the
question, either by word or by record,
would jeopardize normal Democratic
strength in the big population centers
Of the North and Midwest. The OPP
posite risk lies in taking position,
particularly through the choice of can
didate, that might drive much of the
anti-iniegration South into another
third party venture.
Former President Truman, almost
sure to raise one OF the more influential
voices in choosing the next Democratic
standard bearer, already is reported
canvasslng the field for candidate who
can brio ge the issue successfully. II is
not surprising that the name Of Gov
ernor Robert B. Meyner OF New Jersey
figures high In this speculation. The
Governor has won two elections in a
normally" Republican State. He is a
supporter, of course, of civil rights, and
In winning reelection last month he
drew heavy vote In New Jerseys big
cities. But he is a moderate in both his
political and administrative conduct-a
course which has kept him clear Of of
Tending" sensitive factions. Similarly,
up TO now, Senators Johnson Of Texas
and Kennedy OF Massachusetts, have
walked a relatively careful path on this
particular issue. in some contrast to the
more aggressive advpcates Of civil rights

Only q Safety Valve

Representative Landlord Of Mary
land gave the Quesada Board an apt de-
scription OF the role Baltimore's Friend
ship Airport can, play in relation to
Washington's airport needs. He said the
big air terminal in Anne Arundel County
can serve as safety valve" for con-
gested air traffic over the Nations Cap
ital. We agree.
However, Friendships availability as
a safety valve" TO take the pressure of
the Washington National Airport in
traflc emergencies does not necessarily
qualify 1t for general service as WASH
ington's second airport. In fact, most of
the testimony before the board investi-
eating local airport sites had to do with
how beneficial it would be to Friendship
to have some extra trafflc from the
Washington area, not how the use of
Friendship would AFFECT Washington's
air passengers. Friendship admittedly
needs more business and, quite under
standably, It's supporters, who include
the Maryland delegation in Congress,
would like to corner a stable chunk Of
Washington trafic as regular routine.
Just as UNDERSTANDABLE, air travellers
of the Washington area are not enthu-
siastic over Maryland's proposals for
making Baltimore's airport permanent
substitute for a new airport close to the
Capital. We are confident the Quesada
Board. will give full attention to the
Washington side of the airport issue as 1t
continues its study of possible sites for
a new air terminal.

Mr.. Stevenson Declines

It is regrettable that Adlai Steven
son has seen At TO decline President
EiSenhower'S invitation to him to attend
the impending Paris summit" confer
ence of the North Atlantic Treaty Or
ganization. In view of his past sugges-
tons that he might be willing to go over
there II asked, his rather abrupt mega
tive decision has come as something of
a surprise. Yet, looked at from his own
personal standpoint. the reasons he has
given in support Of that decision are
understandable enough.
Thus. as Mr.. Stevenson has ex-
planned, he feels that 1t would be unwise
for him to take part In the Paris meet
ing because Il would be without author
fly and necessarily identified with deci-
sions might not always agree with and
could not publicly oppose" This Is
perhaps an exaggerated and overcau-
tious view. but 1t is nonetheless reason
able. And he has done the right thing
In emphasizing at the same time that
his refusal to attend the conference
sunless there are compelling develop
ments'-does not mean that he Is in
serious disagreement with the American
proposals to be presented there. AS to
that. he has made clear that he fully
supports most of them.
With all that said. however. the fact
still remains that his decision is a dis
appointing one. In his capacity as
titular head Of the Democratic Party,
Mr.. Stevenson has been In close
and friendly consultation with Secre-
tary Dulles on measures designed to
strengthen NATo's political. economic.
scientific and military defenses. Accord
ingly. having thus set a good example
Of constructive bipartisan cooperation
on problems of great Importance to the
United States and the entire Atlantic
community, 1t would have been only log
zeal for him to go to Paris for the ses-
sions that will deal directly with those
problems. Certainly, even though his
role in that sense might have had to
remain rather nebulous. 1t could have
been most helpful.
This is so because Mr.. Stevenson
continues to be a man of considerable
influence both In his own party and
throughout the country. More than
that. he has won large measure Of
popularity and respect in free Europe.
Hence. his attendance at the Paris con-
ference could have helped to promote
not only interallied unity, but also the
kind Of bipartisanship that this Nation
must once again develop and display II
1t Is to deal effectively with the Soviet
challenge. It must be hoped that his
refusal to go does not signify that he Is
retreating from his own past indorse-
ment Of the need for close Democratic
Republican cooperation on issues pro-
foundly affecting NATO and the whole
structure Of inter-allied security.

Administered Prices

That demon investigator,
Senator Estes Kefauver. is
on the hunt for admins
tered prices" In bully
Raging Bethlehem Steel
President A. B. Homer. the
Senator displayed an appall-
ing ignorance Of the economic
facts Of life. He charged in
effect that high-incentive
compensation paid to the steel
firms officers was responsible
for the increase In the price
Of steel. Although informed
that executive salaries
amounted to only three
fourths Of / per cent OF the
total pay roll and that the
combined sales and admins
trative costs do not exceed
3.3 per cent Of company reve-
nues. Kefauver was still con-
vinced that steel prices are
administered"
BY Offering large incentives
to management. Bethlehem
has been able TO improve its
position in the Geld from a
tenth-rate concern to the
No. 2 position. Without such
incentives U. S. Steel would
probably be the only big steel
company in the United States
today. Whether or not steel
prices are administered"
the basic fact is that, under
the incentive system, Beth
lehem has saved us from a
steel monopoly.
II the Senator really de-
sires to find the cause Of
high steel prices, It is sue-
gested that his efforts would
possibly meet with greater
success II he devoted at least
a modicum of his valuable
time to hunting for "un-
earned wages" Since the
memory Of man runneth not
to the contrary, submission
to an "or else demand for a
wage increase has never re-
suited in a corresponding in
crease In production.
