Strauss Critic

! take emphatic exception
to your editorial concerning
the fitness Of Mr.. Strauss as
a cabinet member and Sec
rotary Of Commerce.
Your editorial states: "Mr.
Strauss has demonstrated
competence in public service,
and President Eisenhower
has made it. clear that he
values his ability highly"
President Eisenhower has
valued the abilities" Of sew
eral other members of his
cabinet with equal enthusi-
asrn. only to find that his
choices were more concerned
with their own interests
than the responsibilities of
their office. It is painful to
recall their names and the
instances. but no President
In this writer's memory has
had such a sad experience in
cabinet selections as this
one.
What are we to think of
Admiral Strauss bent for
gross favoritism in the mat
ter Of a sos million Acc
grant to Westinghouse as a
subsidy for a reactor plant,
when the Admiral was
vehemently voicing OPPOSE
tion to such subsidies? Are
we to overlook the patent
conflict Of interest in the
favoritism of Kuhn-Loeb,
tStrauss' old firm and its
director representation in
Westinghouse. Uranium Re-
duction Co.. North American
Aviation Corp. and others,
all Of which received multi
million dollar contracts while
Mr.. Strauss was chairman
Of Acc?
Are we to overlook the
abortive Dixon-Yates scheme
to hobble the iva, by favor
ing Strauss friends In
First Boston Corp?

committee working on gen.

a separate measure which
will deal with demands Of
both labor and management
for improvements in the act.
To Press Rights Action
Another major item-civil
rights legislation, which will
be pressed for action-is now
being considered by Senate
and House committees. On
this legislation there are wide
differences of opinion. Most
Southern Democrats want no
further legislation. The. Eli.
senhower administration has
offered its program of civil
rights legislation, and Sena-
tor Lyndon Johnson has Of
fered his, which goes part way
with the Eisenhower pro-
posals. The liberals" on
both the Democratic and Re.
publican side of the Senate
middle aisle have advanced
far-reaching proposals.
Here again is a field for
major battle. If Lyndon
Johnson can rally the more
conservative Democrats. in

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, Feb. 81 tAPJ.-The
strongest price-making factor of the
year hit the grain futures market this
week and jolted several contracts into
their steepest slide in months.
1t was the announcement by the
Agriculture Department of 1853 price
supports under a new parity formula.
Another, but less Earring, factor was
the Government report on amounts Of
grains held under price support loans
Until the new supports became
known. the market had moved along
within a narrow range in belief that
supports would not be announced until
a few days, at least, after the loan
report. Accordinglv, brokers were ad-
iusting their positions on scattered,
spotty adyices that the loan impound--
ingS would be at record highs and
the most immediate market influence.

Associated Press Financial Writer
NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-The
Treasury bond market was
mixed with a slightly lower
tinge this week, but corporates
advanced on heavier turnover.
Rails and industrials posted
solid gains. Utilities improved
on a more modest scale while
investment quality issues we're
steady. Foreign dollar bonds
drifted lower.
A good indication of the firm
tone underlying the Treasury
bond market, observers said.
was the way it recovered from
the brief furry Wednesday
after an Eisenhower press con-
ference remark that the Statu-
tory interest ceiling OF 414 per
cent on long-term Government
financing might have to be
increased if interest rates kept
rising.
For the week, the Treasury
212s of 1868 advanced 16 80 at
"a 20/32 bid. Unchanged were
the IS of 1895 at So 8 80, the is
of 1869 at 1Ol 1882 and the

The 314s of 1885 and the 31as
of 1890 were off 832 each at

With corporate new issues
again in light supply, municipal
