elites" in the struggle between
freedom and slavery"
Mr.. Nixon said although there
have been many achievements
in Russia since its Communist
revolution 40 years ago, Rus
sian food production has been
"a massive failure" giving the
United States a major advan-
tage over Russia.
Overall" added Mr.. Nixon,
there is no question of the
United States being superior
to Russia militarily, econom;-
cally and agriculturally. We
only must use this tremendous
advantage in the production of
food to wipe out poverty. hun
ger and disease in the world"
Touching ON other aspects of
the country's economy, the Vice
President said the United
States was much too strong to
be talked into a depression by
any group of politicians"
Our economy, he said, pro-
duceS three times as much as
that of Russia. The economy
of this country is free, sound
and strong the United
States is table to meet and de-
feat any opponent in the
world"
Food Cost Compared
In a prepared lunch e o n
speech. Secretary of Agricul-
ture Benson said that although
food bills run high in dollars
and cents. food is still "a
better buy than it was a gen.
Grafton ago. Some of US re-
member when rib roast was
only 20 cents a pound. But it
took 48 minutes Of labor to
earn the money to buy pound
of rib roast then; today it
takes only 20 minutes"
Although farmers are produc-
ing food in abundance. Mr..
Benson said, many low income
families are not getting proper
nourishment. And in every
income class" he said, there
are some families whose diets
need to be improved"
If all households practice
proper nutrition. he said. the
farm surplus would be virtually
wiped out. For example. he
said, IF all households that are
low on calcium we're to raise
their consumption to the rec
commended level. milk consump-
ton would go up about 9 per
cent. Not only would it wipe
out the surplus-it would call
for a substantial increase in
production"

A 90-minute executive ses-
sion Of the Senate Rackets In
vestigating Committee this
morning failed to break dead
lock over how to conduct the
much-heralded but long de
layed United Auto Workers
Kohler strike hearings.
Although Committee Counsel
Robert F. Kennedy laughingly
told newsmen after the meeting
that peace and harmony have
been restored" it was clear
that the deadlock had not been
broken.
Chairman Mcclellan, Demo-
crat Of Arkansas. said another
effort TO find a satisfactory
solution will be made starting
at $3.50 pm. today.
Puzzled on Start
In essence, the dispute is on
how to start the hearings. Only
slightly oversimplifled, the issue
is whether TO allow United Auto
Workers President Walter p
Reuther TO use the committee
as a forum.
Senator Mcclellan, con-
fronted with a logjam. ex-
pressed the hope that hearings
will start tomorrow as sched-
uled, but many observers felt
the failure to break the dead
lock this morning made that
possibility remote.
I'm hopeful the matter will
be resolved this afternoon,
Senator Mcclellan said.

motions pointing to a solution

Short Courses For
State Potato Growers

Two short course sessions will
be held again for Delaware potato
growers on successive Wednesday
evenings, January 29th and Feb
ruary 5th at the Capital Grange
Hall in Dover, says George Va
paa, Kent County agricultural ag-
ent.
A. E. Mercker, executive secre:
tary of the National Potato Coun-
ell, heads the program with the
1858 potato outlook. He has long
and wide experience in the potato
marketing field, and his present
work takes him all over the coun-
try to observe and report on con-
ditions.
The program was planned by the
following grower committee in CO.
operation with the University of
Delaware Agricultural Extension
Service: Edward Meyer, Odessa;
George Wicks, Smyrna; Eugene
Gagen and Jacob w. Zimmerman,
both of Dover.
The emphasis is to be on local
grower problems and will include
such Information as irrigation trial
results, nutgrass and other weed
control, fusarium rot and seed
piece treatments, control of insects
such as flea beetles with soil in
secticides, in ternal browning,
What's in that Fertilizer Bag?,
and a report on new variety trials.
There is also a great deal of in
terest in potato packaging, but
plans are not yet complete for the
speaker on this topic. One of the
larger urban chain stores has been
asked to outline their needs, so
that growers might more easily fit
the demand. All indications point
to the fact that Mrs. Consumer has
become discriminating buyer to
the degree that producers must
find her needs or she will go to an
alternative food item.
Mr.. Vapaa concludes by saying
that the meetings are open to
everyone and that both will start
at 500 p. m. More complete infor-
nation may be had by calling the
county agents office at Dover 1921.

Best To Write
Farm Lease, Share
By Contribution

It's best to think through and
write out farm lease so that the
landlord and the tenant will share
in the farm income according tC
how much each contributes to run
ming the business.
VIM. III. Henderson, county agri-
cultural agent, explains that the
landlord should charge for interest
on his investment and for upkeep
and depreciation of buildings, fences
tax bitches and other capital i'm
provements.
A tenant should charge for in
terest, depreciation and up keep for
capital items supplied-plus a
charge for his labor.
The easiest way to handle pro-
duction expenses is to estimate how
much each party paid before by us
ing the farm account book as a
guide. Then they can adjust paying
expenses to meet the share ar
rangement set up for the farm.
The agent advises writing up a
lease that gives the tenant and the
landlord a feeling of working to-
gether. The landlord should be get
ting a return on his investment
but he should let the tenant follow
good management plans to grow
the most profitable crops.
Landlords and tenants are urged
to contact the agricultural agent
for more detailed information.
