Nixon of four years ago as he
sailed into what he called "the
cheap, below-the- belt cracks of
Harry Truman and his ilk" and
spoke Of the frightening alter
native" to the election of
Republicans.
Former President Truman
was a favorite Nixon target in
1854. Then the Democrats said
the Vice President went around
the country insinuating that
their party was soft on COM
munism. Mr.. Truman said Mr..
Nixon had called him a traitor,
a charge the Vice President
denied.
Changed Line In 1856
In 1856 Mr.. Nixon threw the
Democrats of stride. Instead
Of assailing them bitterly as he
had two years previously, he
spent most Of his time talking
about the accomplishments of
the Eisenhower administration.
He even commended that the
matter of Communist inflltra-
ton into government - for
which he had blamed the DEM
ocrats in 1954--should be APP
preached on a nonpartisan
basis.
These campaign tactics were
widely advertised at the time
as indicating there was a new

Radiation in Tea
Found Slight
BY the Associated Press

Tests show that radioactivity
in a shipment of Japanese tea
which arrived in New York July
81 is well below the established
tolerance, the Food and Drug
Administration announced to-
day.
FDA added that the tea is
being released for sale. The
examination was ordered after
the Coast Guard reported slight
radioactivity when the ship
carrying the tea reached the
West Coast. None of the tea
was unloaded there.
Commissioner George p. Lar
rick said in a statement that
the amount of strontium-90 in
the breWed tea would not ex-
coed one-tenth of the tolerance
recommended by the National
Committee on Radiation Pro-
lection and Measurements.
The shipment to New York
included $40 chests, of which
100 were transshipped to
Canada. FDA said it had noti-
fed Canadian authorities.
Another 20 chests aboard the
freighter Tancred were con-
signed to Baltimore, and also
were scheduled to be sampled
by F'DA.

British Threaten
Firing to Guard
Iceland FISHING

LONDON, Aug. 10 (AP). -
Britain reminded Iceland yes
terday that gunboats will guard
British trawlers against inter-
ference inside Iceland's new H.
mile fishing limits.
A Foreign Office spokesman
said Britain still hopes "for an
agreed solution" Of the quarrel
that threatens to involve the
two Atlantic pact partners in
shooting. On September l
Iceland intends to enforce a
new law extending her sea linn
its from 4 to IL miles-and
on that date British fishing
trawlers protected by royal
naval vessels intend to defy the
new limits.
Iceland's Minister of Fish
cries, Ludvik Joseffsson, a
Communist, said Sunday the
use of force by Britain would
be regarded as an armed attack
against Iceland. He expressed
the view Britain hardly would
take that sort of action against
a defenselesS state.
Norway's second largest news
paper, the Oslo Dagbladet, said
yesterday the issue was
threatening to drive Iceland
out of NATO. The paper said
this would be a big political
victory for the Russians" II
commented that Moscow was
offering big trade deals to Ice
land for her fisheries catch.

by voice vote last night. The
House passed it last week.
Secretary Of Agriculture Ben
son, who supported most Of the
bills provisions, indicated earli-
er that the President would sign
the measure if it gained pas
sage.
The measure would prevent a
sharp cutback in planting Of
cotton and rice. allow corn
farmers..to rid themselves of
all planting controls, and ex-
tend for three more years a
subsidy program for domestic
wool growers.
Another provision - which
the administration especially
likes-would permit lower Gov
eminent price supports on cot
ton, rice, corn and other live
stock feed grains.
Mr.. Benson said the measure
contains many forward-look-
ing provisions which will give
our Nations farmers and
ranchers more freedom to
plant, to market, to compete
and make their own decisions"
Although the bill is not all
the administration sought. it
is based on the sound principle
that a wide range Of price
supports will lead to expanded
markets for this Nations album
dant agricultural products" he
said in a statement.
The Senate acted speedily
last night in handling the bill.
In less than an hour, SEN
ator Ellender Cd got the oen-
ate to reverse its decision last
week demanding a compromise
effort with the House on
changes made in q similar Sem
ate bill, and CD got a voice
vote accepting the House
changes and completing con-
gressional action.
Senator Ellender said the
House version was generally
similar to the original Senate
bill. He promised consideration
next year for stronger legisla-
ton dealing with wheat an6
livestock feed grains.
Mr.. Benson said it was his
understanding Congress would
act on two other pieces of farm
legislation before it quits.
One would extend the Farm
Surplus Disposal Act for two
years with $3.5 billion in addi-
tional authority for overseas
sales and gifts of farm sur
