THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL

You have tried it many
times.
You know.
The lure Of the whirring and
he blurring subsidies. the mo-
ment you look at the thing.
Motion is replaced by stag.
nation.
Nobody, no matter how
eloquent. can fool you on this.
You know.
49,
Let it be said again:
You know your limitations.
In the far-fiung days Of
George III you might have
functioned efficiently.
After all, what they had
then was the horse and the
carriage. the candle, and the
wood fire.
These are elementals In
human life.
You could have COPIED with
them.
Our modern monsters. re-
posing stolidly In the base
ment and elsewhere, do
something to you. or maybe
you do something to them.
Even the latest triumph Of
the thinking machine, with
its 5000 tubes and 43 million
separate VIKINGS. would fall
dead when you came in.
So you stay out.
This is one way Of working
counter-magic.
In the old days, when some
body sneezed, It was q sign an
old debbil was coming out Of
you.
So modestly you held your
hand over your mouth, to
protect others as much as
possible.
The others. feeling right
eously polite. said God bless
you," or some such thing. to
cause the evil spirit to flee.
The man who is linked.
when modern inventions are
concerned. works his counter
magic by letting them alone.
The pursuit Of gremlins is
not for him.
He is an English country
gentleman in the wrong CEN
fury, that is all.

THE POLITICAL MILL
Sound Principles for the Farm Veto
By GOULD LINCOLN

Democrats. While some Re.
publicans also will be vocif-
erous in denunciation, the
big majority in Congress will
go along with Mr.. Eisen-
hover. Indeed. it did so when
the farm bill, now vetoed,
was before the. House and
Senate for action. Republic
can leaders are predicting
confldentally that the ex-
pected effort to override the
Presidents veto will fail. A
two-thirds vote is necessary
in both houses II a bill is to
become law, Notwithstanding
the disapproval Of the Presi-
dent. With the Easter recess
Of Congress beginning on
Thursday and lasting until
April IA. the matter will wait
until the Congressman re-
turn to Washington and the
Capitol. The Democratic
leaders are seeking to line Up
as many Of their party mem
berS as possible to vote to
override the veto-to en-
phasize what they hope will
be an issue against Republic
can candidates in many Of
the farm States.
Farmers Divided on Issue
So intricate are the prob
lens relating to farm econ
omy that even the farmers,
themselves, are strongly di-
vided on this question of
rigid price supports. And
many Of them are not in
formed fully. But the Demo-
Gratis, most Of them. have
been insisting for years that
they-and not the Republic
canS-are friends Of the
farmers. Their arguments are
made especially to small
farmers-the one-family sized
farm and to farm tenants
and their arguments have all
the earmarks of the Demo-
cratic claim that their party
alone is the friend of the
common man." For years the
farmers have suffered because
they have to sell in a buyers
market, they have to take
the prices offered them; while
on the other hand, they have
to buy in a market controlled
by the sellers. They have had
the short end Of the stick.
The Democrats. in the Roose.
welt and Truman administra-
tons, tried out the high,
rigid farm price supports
without any permanent relief,
and with the result the Gov
eminent acquired billions Of
dollars worth of surplus
products-which In turn
helped keep farm prices de-
pressed. The only real bright
spots, for the farmers, were
during the years Of the
Second World War and the
Korean War. This. however.
the Democrats will not en-
phasize. For the farmers do
not want war. any more than
other Segments Of the Ameri-
can people.
The Eisenhower admins
tration has made an earnest
effort to solve the farmers
problems and to help the
farmers. themselves. solve
them. It deserves q longer
period in which to DEM
onstrate the wisdom of its
course.

No Good Without POLICING

It is not going to be easy for the
United States and the West as whole
to OFFSET the impact of the Kremlin's
announcement that it intends to put an
end to all its nuclear testing. AS an ex-
ercise in propaganda, the gesture con-
stitutes sort of grand-slam maneuver
that can hardly fail to impress many
millions of people around the world. In
that respect-temporarily at least-it
places our country at a great disadvan-
tage, the more so because we are soon
to begin a new and very important pro-
gram of experimental atomic hydrogen
detonationS in the Pacific.
Yet, despite this, the Kremlin's dec
laration can be debated in part by sub
jecting 1t to a number of challenges
and pointed observations, some of which
have already been made by the State
Department. To begin with, a fact worth
Stressing is that the declaration has
come on the heels of a prolonged series
Of Soviet A and H explosions. In. other
words, they have completed their cur
rent tests, possibly conducted to perfect
missile warheads, and therefore are in
safe position to talk about test sus-
pension. There are two other loopholes
In the Gromyko statement. One of these
is that 1t apparently must be taken at
face value, with no international verif1-
cation or inspection to determine It's
genuinenesS. And the second is that it
reserves to the Khrushchev government
the right to resume testing unless other
nuclear powers join 1t in suspension or
ban agreement, presumably on MoScow's
terms.
Accordingly. since major test opera
tons require between IL and IS months
Of advance preparation, the West has
reason to harbor a suspicion that the
Kremlin may have already begun to
plan for another series of detonations
and that It will continue to insist on
an inadequately policed ban in order
to make sound agreement impossible
while seeming to be earnestly in search
of one. Certainly, considering Russia's
past record, there is ample ground for
such miSgivings as to whether the So
Wet announcement is really sincere or
whether 1t has been put out solely and
simply for propaganda purposes. This,
Of course, may do an injustice to the
Khrushchev government. II so, however,
then the Khrushchev government can
prove its good faith readily enough by
ending its boycott Of the United Nations
Disarmament Commission and by adj
herring to the General Assembly's recon-
mendation for immediate studies on
how to establish effective inspection.
In any event, as the State Depart
ment has declared. free nations will not,
and should not, rely merely on "a Soviet
statement of intentions for which there
is no system of verification, which can
be evaded in secrecy and altered at will"
AS far as the United States is concerned,
this is another way of saying that our
tests will continue as long as they are
deemed essential in the absence Of Rus
sia's agreement to adequate policing
arrangements. In the circumstances, the
world can only hope that the Kremlin
will yet offer full and honest co-opera-
ton. Given that, all A and H expert
ments could be effectively controlled in
a way that would serve the peaceful
progress Of nations everywhere.

ReprisoI

A certain Congressman had
the gall to state that because
d. c. and Federal Govern
ment workers were OF 9 day
because Of the storm, this
proved that they were nom
essential and deserved no
raise. Noting that the Con-
gressmen voted themselves a
To-day holiday for Easter, /
am compelled to inquire how
essential this makes them?

President Eisenhower has
vetoed the farm bill which
seeks to freeze high support
prices for basic crops, with
out regard to politics. He has
acted on sound and basic
principles for the farm econ
omy. He has been deaf to the
pleas of Republican Senators
and Representatives from
some Of the Midwest States.
Further. he has not been dis
mayed by the fact that the
Democrats are hoping to capi-
talize on this veto in the con-
gressional elections next No
vember. In a strong message
to Congress. the President.
announcing he declined TO
approve the farm bill, wrote
that it would be ill-advised
legislation from the stand
point Of both the Nation and
Of the farm families. Specifi-
cally, he pointed out that the
bill If enacted into law would
pile up the price-depressing
SURPRISES that have hung like
q dark cloud over the farmers
Of America while the high
price support system has been
in effect: that the growth Of
new markets would be re-
stricted. and that the day
when agriculture can be re-
leased from the straitjacket
Of controls would be post
poned. In his message the
President called upon Con-
gress to enact without further
delay q program which he had
earlier sent to the Capitol, de-
signed to solve some of the
farmers problems. He also
related q long series Of steps
which have been taken by
the administration to aid the
farmers.
Cites Farm Price Rise
The Presidents defense Of
the system Of flexible price
supports of farm prices to
which he and the administra-
ton have been committed
shows that farm prices have
actually risen when the high
rigid price supports were
abandoned. This month, he
pointed out to the Congress,
the index Of prices received
by the farmers is 9 per cent
above the level that prevailed
in June, 1855. when the high,
rigid supports were last gen.
orally in effect. The so-called
parity rate. he said, now
stands at 81. UP 6 points from
q year ago.
While the Government
price supports apply to the
so-called basic crops. like
wheat and other grains, and
cotton. most agricultural pro-
duction Is without produc-
ton control or price support.
This is generally true Of meat
animals. poultry. fruits and
vegetables. In the opinion Of
the President. the farmers
stand to profit from less,
rather than more, govern
mental Intervention. He
claims there is impressive
evidence to support his posi-
ton, and he cites the fact
that unsupported prices of
cattle and hogs today are
unusually strong.
The Presidents veto mes
sage. however. will be dis
puted-particularly by the
