The government stepped squarely
into the cigarette controversy last
week. First, the U. S. Public Health
Service issued it's strongest statement
to date on the link between smoking
and cancer; and second, Congress an
nounced plans for a probe of the use
and effect of cigarette filters.
The Health Service report, put out
by U. S. Surgeon General Leroy E.
Burney, declared flatly that numerous
studies have Confirmed beyond
reasonable doubt that there is a high
degree of statistical association be-

WASHINGTON, D. C.-This looks
like the beginning of series of rapid
actions in Congress as the first session
draws to close. After attending
summer training camp as an army re-
servist, have returned to Washing
ton and plunged into the series of
activities necessary prior to the close
of the session. The House could wind
up all its work in the first or second
week of August, but the Senate action
on civil rights will likely prolong the
session.
Fiscal Policies-My committee on
Banking and Currency this week is
busy considering fiscal policies and
in particular, the Financial Institu-
tions Act. Witnesses appearing before
us include the chairman of the Fed
eral Reserve Board, the chairman of
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp,
the Comptroller of the Currency, the
director of the Bureau of Federal
Credit Unions, the chairman of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corp, and
others.
Writeoffs-The Joint Committee
on the Economic Report has released
figures showing that the Treasury
estimated it has lost more than S4
billion in tax revenues since 1850 be-
cause of rapid tax writeoffs granted
business firms. Figures showed that
$37.7 billion in emergency tax amor
tization certificates had been issued
through last April 18th.
Schools-A House Labor subcom-
mittee has approved HR 8679, extend

corn. The department contended that
the 20-year old corn acreage control
system had failed to prevent surplus
feed grain production. The proposal
would put corn in the same position

FIGHTER said.
Farmers have not shared in the
abundance they have helped to
create. Judged by the only fair mea-
suring stick, which is parity of in
come, the average income of farmers
is only Al per cent of the average
income of non1farm people, FIGHTER
declared.
The National Farmers Union is
asking the Congress this year to
adopt parity of income standard
as a basis for price supports. Under
this proposal, the price support on
wheat would be raised to $3.15 a
bushel; on corn, to $2.41 a bushel;
and on milk to $3.50 per hundred
weight.
Mr.. FIGHTER said that present
government policy on agriculture has
confronted the farmers in the corn
belt with an emergency.
I'VE face flood of corn this year
at disastrously low prices, unless
emergency action is taken by the
government. The impact of cheap
corn will spread throughout the other
feed grains and will pull the live
stock industry down to lower level, I"
he said.
To meet this emergency the Farm
ers Union is making the following
recommendations to Congress:
ID An increase in the average
payment per acre in the conservation
and acreage reserve of the soil bank;
(2.) an immediate increase in the
support price on corn to SLIGO a
bushel; 90 an increase in the corn
acreage allotments on this years
corn crop to at least 49 million acres;
(Q apportionment of this increase
among those farmers who have CO.
operated in the past with acreage
allotments and also among those who
have suffered inequities such as hav-
ing extremely low histories of acre
age planted in corn, in order to help
small farmers whose allotments have
been reduced to the point where they
simply cannot cooperate with the
program and be eligible for price sup
ports; go premium payments for
marketing livestock at lighter and
more desirable weights so as to in
crease the Income of livestock pro-
ducers and stabilize the marketing of
livestock.

The Latest Wisconsin

We see little reason to get into the
act featuring Defense Secretary Wilson'S
latest foot-in-mouth performance.
The President has raped the Will
sonian knuckles, and the spokesman for
the National Guard, whatever the facts
as to that organizations combat readi-
ness, seem able, willing and ready to trade
the short and ugly words with Mr.. Wilson.
One might express some sentiment
to the effect that this most recent exer-
else in ill-chosen words should have
Christening and restraining effect on the
Secretary of Defense. But to do this
would be nothing more than to express a
pious hope. For Charles E. Wilson is

Welcome, Old Vic

England's Old Vic Theater is paying
its first visit to Washington this week
and next, and this is an occasion for
rejoicing. Mutual rejoicing, it should be
said, for London's famous Shakespearean
company apparently is as delighted as
Washington itself.
This is young Old Vic company,
young in its personnel and in spirit:
alive to its time and yet conscious of
the continuity that leads back to the
Bard, his England, and his theater. It's
productions demonstrate not merely the
immortality of Shakespeare'S plays, but
their vitality, their livelineSs and their
timeliness. aM
An Old Vic performance creates the
feeling of something going on not merely
inside the theater at particular time
but in the continuous current of human
experience. In that unctiouS phrase,
1.-The function of art" the playwright's
obligation is to provide clues to the
mystery of living, the dilemma of being
a human being.
In his muSic-making observations Of
human nature, all the way from its base
ness to its nobility, Shakespeare deluged
his fellow man in such clues. These are
displayed never so brilliantly as when
the Old Vic undertakes the happy task.
A royal welcome, then, to our visitors.
