1T would be like appointing
someone to see that the Ex-
ecutive Branch performs prop
erly something it should never
have been authorized to do in
the first place." said Senator
Aiken.
He was referring to the long
range plan approved by the
Foreign Relations Committee to
let the Treasury borrow $8.8
billion over the next five years
to finance repayable economic
loans to underdeveloped coun-
tries. This has become the
main point of controversy in
the foreign aid bill.
Another Republican, Senator
Hickenlooper Of Iowa, said the
watchdog committee should be
set up to keep an eye on foreign
aid spending, regardless Of
whether Congress approves the
long-range borrowing or sticks
to annual appropriations.
Senator Hickenlooper, per-
sonally against a five-year
authorization, voted in COM
mittee for either two or three
years.

ask Democratic leaders to

Opening lead: Nine of spades.
West leads the nine of
spades, holding the trick. He
continues with the three of
spades and East wins a finesse
with the 10.
East continues with the king
of spades and South is at the
crossroads.
If South ruffS low, West will
overruff. West will later get
the ace of trumps and the de-
tenders must also get one club
and one diamond trick.
If South ruffs high, West
will discard. Then West will
eventually win two trump tricks
with the ace and nine. South
will still lose a club and a dia-
mond and he will be down one
West mustn't make the
mistake of overruffing if South
ruffs with the king of hearts
The would limit West to one
trump trick.
No Need to Ruff
AS we have seen, South goes
down whether he ruffS high or
low. He makes his contract if
he sees that there's no need
to ruff at all.
When East leads the third
spade, South diScardS either
the losing club or the losing
diamond. This doesn't cost
anything but merely gives the
opponents a trick tilat they
will surely win sooner or later.
East continues with a fourth
spade and South discards his
other sure loser.
EaSt'S best move is to con-
tinue with his last spade. Now
dummy'S trumpS come to the
rescue. West can get only one
trump trick and South easily
gets the rest.

Nations Leaders Are
Optimistic On Business

The leaders OF the nations's IN
dustry are optimistic about bust
ness conditions in 1861. They are
optimistic despite the admitted
ly sharper bite of foreign competi-
ton, and a widespread attitude of
~atchful waiting to see what the
new administration will do.
An even so per cent of tbe
several hundred top executives
polled while recently attending
the 65th Congress of american
Industry in New York City, ex-
pected their own company profits
to improve during 1861 over curr-
ent levels. Only IL per cent ex-
pected earnings to drop below
1860.
The poll was conducted by the
National Association of Manufac-
turers, sponsors of the annual
Congress, among the 1000 or more
delegates gathered from all over
the country.
Many of those responding to
the NAM poll hedged their pre-
dictions by explaining they felt
the second half of the year should
more than offset any continued
drag during the first half. Many
others predicted lower earnings
for their own industries as
whole, than they expected for
their own companies.
Actual figures were as follows:
Expect improved outlook for
own company during 1961-50 per
cent; same as 1903 per cent;
lower than 1960-11 per cent. The
same respondents expect improv-
ed outlook for own industry-34
per cent; same as 1902 per
cent; lower than 1960-24 per
cent
Nearly half of those replying
AZ per cent-felt the new admin
istration should have an adverse
effect on their profit picture; So
per cent expected no change Six
per cent felt the new administra-
ton would improve their earn
ings.
In regard to foreign competi-
ton, two-thirds (66 per cent? re-
ported increasing pressure from
business abroad on their respec-
tive industries. Some 81 per cent
expected foreign competition to be
serious enough to require them to
reduce their payrolls during the
year.
When queried as to what poll
cies they felt most important in
, spurring economic growth, the
of the income tax rate, and curbs
on the monopoly power of unions.

Boggs resigned as governor last
Friday, leaving the path open for
Buckson, lieutenant governor, to
succeed him. Buckson will serve
as governor until January IL when
Ebert Carvel, Democrat, who
served a previous term as COVER
nor in 1949-53, will take over due
to his election last November s.
Boggs was the only Republican
to stem the Democratic tide in
Delaware's November s statewide
election when the state threw it's
three electoral votes to Senator
John F. Kennedy, Democrat, for
president.
The new senator succeeds Sena-
tor j. Allen Frear, Jr., who lost
to Boggs after serving two full
six-year terms in Washington.
Boggs is no newcomer to Wash
ington. He served three two-year
terms in the House, in 1947-53. 1t
was in the 1852 Fall election that
he defeated Carvel, who was seek
ing reelection, to become COVER
nor.
In all, Boggs has won six
straight statewide elections for
ngressman-at-large three times,
for governor twice, and for SEN
ator once.
Boggs will take over the Office
of retiring Senator Frear at least
temporarily. In recent weeks his

1860 Good Crop Year
Throughout State
continued from page one)

According to the Agriculture De-
partment's end-of-year summar-
les, the 1860 corn crop had value
of S11,681, 900 compared with S10,-
$3.50 for 1859. This was despite
the fact that the average price per
bushel dropped from $1.26 to S1.2O
in 1860.
The 1860 Delaware wheat crop
was worth $1.279. 900, almost the
same as the $1,276,0O0 of 1859. Av-
erage prices received. however,
dropped from s1.72 per bushel to
$1.65.
The 1860 barley crop was worth
s612,000, as compared to $511,OOO
for 1859; the rye crop was worth
1851 900, a substantial gain from
the previous years $279,000; and
the 1860 Delaware oats crop had
value of $4,000, compared with
$168, 900 for 1859.
Although the average price drop
ped from S2.0S per bushel to $2.O5
during 1860, soybeans continued
to forge forward as one of the
states major field crops notes the
Development Department. The 1860
soybean crop was valued at S9,-
299,OO0, a big jump from a 1859
value of $6,937, 900.
A big drop occurred in the value
of potatoes raised in Delaware this
past year, the 1860 yield being
valued at only $3,146,000, against
$5,568,000 for 1859. This decrease
in value reflected, in large mea-
sure, drop in average price from
1882 a bushel to only SLAB per
bushel
That Delaware's field crops
brought in more cash this year
than last is due to the siZeable in
crease in the value of the sOybean
harvest and an increase in the
corn. harvest, which more than
made up for the big drop in pota-
to yields and sales concludes the

Following the oath, Buckson's
minister, the Rev. ]. Howard Link,
of Smyrna's Asbury Methodist
Church, offered bene6iction.
Boggs warmly shook Buckson's s
hand in congratulations, and Buck
son said simply, Thank you, Gov
ernor."
The ceremony was followed by
a public reception in the Cover
nor's Offices, where Republican
legislator, friends, and supporters
of Buckson offered their congrat-
ulations.
Buckson's term will be by far
the shortest in Delaware history.
The previous shortest term was
that of John Maull, who served
from March 2 to May 3, 1916, be-
Thomas Stockton, and his own
death. Delaware did not have a
lieutenant governor in those days,
the post was created in 1900.
Buckson, 40, was elected lieu
tenant governor in 1856 for a four
year term-the first time he had
sought elective Office. During his
term as governor he will have no
lieutenant.
A native of Townsend, he is an
attorney by profession, and served
a brief term on the Kent County
Court of Common Pleas in 1856.
He graduated from the Univer-
