When the bulletin came
saying the pilot Of the
United States U-2 recon-
naissance aircraft had been
shot down and captured near
Sverdlovsk, I recalled the
caravan of buses and cars
which moved out of that city
to see some of the industrial
satellite cities during Vice
President Nixon's recent
visit.
1t is pleasant countryside.
There are forests of pine with
birch trees ghost-white in
their depths. There are lakes
and streams to be seen, as
we'll as marshlands. The ter
rain is attractive. ranging
from level to low-lying hills,
a part of the Urals which
there begin to slope down to
the West Siberian plain. The
Iset River flows through the
city and, in the countryside
one can see brooks which are
is tributaries. Some Of the
grassy slopes, rising from
the roadways and climbing
to the darkness of pine. have
a beauty equaling that Of any
land.
We did not see any anti
aircraft guns. But they were
there. Sverdlovsk is the heart
of the great concentration
of industry in the Urals. All
about it are industrial towns
and cities, in cluding an
atomic power plant which by
now should be near compile
ton, the largest copper re-
f1nery in the nation, the sec
ond major electrical manu-
featuring plant. the greatest
, pipe production and many
factories turning out heavy
equipment of all kinds. 1t is
a center of chemicals, cleo
tronics, plastics, rubber and
wire.
And though they were not
to be seen, everyone knew
that nowhere in the world
was there heavier massing Of
anti-aircraft weapons.
Our party, flying in Soviet
Jets. landed at one Of five

Is blunt, defiant, outspoken,

Alliance cannot be divided,

Americans will rally behind

alton that President Eisen-

for the torpedoing of the
summit conference.
The Soviet leader cannot
pose as q peacemaker and
then suddenly be revealed as
a maker of war. The reaction
OF the West indicates an ap-
prehension chat he may over
play his hand and that his
arbitrary tactics someday will
force a war.
The texts Of the various
communications indicate the
Soviet Premier is almost
childlike in his defenSiveness.
Once President Eisenhower
refused to so to a summit
conference because Mr..
Khrushchev threatened the
West with an ultimatum. So
today the Soviet Premier
says he. too. can refuse to go,
under the duress of the spy
plane incident.
But, as any student Of
diplomatic history would tell
Mr.. Khrushchev, it's all
right to make demands and
to bluff, but it's also wise to
leave a way out for the other
side. Thus, he could have
construed President Eisen-
hower's decision to suspend
the reconnaissance flights as
a point that he had won.
But Mr.. Khrushchev wasn't
satisfied and-like Hitler
has demanded the humilia-
ton Of his adversary. This

500 Acre Commercial Farm Located Near Thornton
Farm Stocked With
Buffalo Fish For
Northern Markers

One of the states largest
commercial fish farms is locat-
cd near Thornton. Operated
by the Pluto plantation and
Anderson Brothers Of Yazoo
City, the farm" consists of
500 acres of flooded woodlands
south of Thornton on Pluto
plantation.
Dan Foose and Bobb ~
Thompson, partners in the ven
ture, said more than go, 900
small buffalo fish have been
placed in the water since the
farm was started three years
ago.
Mr. Thompson said the buff
falo range in weight from 2
to 8 pounds now and are being
taken out to be sold in north
ern markets through brokers.
Seines are used to catch the
fish, by means of lowering the
water level in the farm" by
natral drain into Bee Lake,

which is nearby. Cleared-out
sumps are located through the
farm and as the water level
Is lowered the fish wind up in
these spotted sums, or ponds,
where they are seine. After
the catch" is completed,
water is pumped from Bee
Lake back into the farm,
which again becomes a huge
flooded lake.
The farm has its own spawn
ing ponds which replenish the
number of fish in the farm.
Mr.. Thompson said they have
about decided to change from
raising buffalo fish to catfish.
He said catfish grow much
faster than buffalo and as soon
as the present crop is cleaned
out they viii change to catfish
altogether. A catfish crop
can be marketed annually,
whereas II takes buffalo about
three years to reach the mar
keting size.

Per Capita State Taxes
Finally Top $500 Mark

A break-through past the 100
dollar mark was staged for the
first time by the per capita state
tax burden in the year ended
June 80, 1860, according to Com
merce Clearing House, national
reporting authority on tax and
business law.
With a whopping 1877 per cent
increase in state tax collections,
every man, woman and child in
the nation, on average, was hit
with a state tax bill of $101.72,
an all-time high surprising last
years record by over $40 the CCH
report said.
State tax collections in fiscal
1860, taken from official census
bureau figures, rose to over $18
billion, up more than So billion
from the previous year. Not one
state showed a decrease in total
collections and only two states,
Massachusetts and New Mexico,
reflected a lower per capita tax
burden.
The report showed that the
newest state, Hawai-, led the ma
ton with a 5000 per capita tax
burden. Alaska was in the up
per bracket with $121.
CaIifornia's tax collection soar
ed over the So billion mark, the
first time any state reached that
peak.
New York followed closely,
$196 billion, and Pennsylvania
topped the billion mark for the
first time. The greatest percent
age tax collection increase was
registered by Arizona, up 81 per
cent from last year.
New Jersey and Nebraska had
the lowest per capita marks, re-
gistering $50 and sos, respec-
lively.

Not long ago in New York
City I had the great pleasure
of meeting and talking with
fascinating Sophia Della. AS
many Of you know, Miss Della
is a dancer of great skill and
charm.
Her Chinese dances have
delighted audiences all over
the United States and in
other countries, on the con-

versitieS and museums. She
has appeared on many we'll
known TV shows and has
been consultant to various
theatrical productions. She is
also teacher of note and has
written many articles about
the dance arts of China.
I was especially anxious to
meet Sophia Della because of
her interest in and superb
mastery of Tai Chi Ch'Uan,

calls it, THE Health Dance"

I called her for an appoint

dates we had both already
set up it looked as though
our meeting might be delayed
for some time. I was most
anxious to go to the lecture
demonstration she was Civ
ing at the United Nations
that afternoon, but my pre-
vious commitments made it
impossible.
Because she is a very gra-
cious person she asked me to
come by her apartment later
in the afternoon and prom
ised that she would execute
Tai Chi Ch'Uan for me and
tell me about it.
This is a series of move

the postureS bring into play
every part of the body from
the smallest finger joint to
the largest muscle, and I can
believe it! I also can see why
