OPPOSITION
MET

Representative Craig Hosmer,
R-Caif. and Representative Odin
Langren, R, Minnesota, have
attacked the San Juan-Chama and
the Observation-Disclosures Projec,
in Colorado.
Hosmer stated that he opposed
the projects because they would
be likely to affect California;
water supply from the Colorado
River. A California colleague of
Ho smer, Democrat B.F. Lisk,
challenged Hosmer's position on
the basis that the dispute over
water between Arizona and Cali
fornia was concerned with the
lower ba sin states share of water
not the ALLEGATION to Colorado and
New Mexico.
Rep. Langren opposed the pro-
jects on the contention that irri-
cation of additional acreage would
contribute to the farm surplus by
bringing more crops into produc-
ton.

Abiquiu was one of the early

the Jicarilla Apache, the Utes, and
the NaVajos. Navajos are known to
have gone into the Abiquiu vicinity
for hundreds of years for hunting,
raiding and trading. 1t was later
the starting point on the old Spanish
trade route of 1900 to 1916 over
which passed New Mexico and
Navajo blankets, and sometimes
slaves, for exchange in California
for mules, horses and China silks.
American military posts were
established at Abiquiu after 1916
for the protection of the frontier
against Indian raids, and the
Jicarilla Apache and Utes were
administered from here by early
American agents. Today the

1t is essential in a brief period
to double and triple the output

a few years. This is demanded

embark upon the right road, free
ing themselves from the false
ideas about the scientific impor-
lance of lea farming.
Unmonoged Agriculture
Agriculture was and remains
largely unmanaged. We adj
dress general appeals, convene
conferences, and take decisions
that sometimes are not bad. And
what after that? We have no
organ with which to safeguard
the fulfillment of the tasks out
lined and we limit ourselves to
issuing the call: Forward, COM
radeS! And as to who and how,
whether all the units have started
moving, whether everything Is pre-
pared for the production of the
necessary quantity of products
nobody knows, nobody Is called
to account for it, and there Is
nobody who can be called to &C
count. -.
An agricultural leadership COM
mittee must be set up for the
entire USSR. The main task
OF the union committee will be
to organize daily confirmation of
fulfillment of decisions of the
party and government on ques-
tons of agriculture. 49,.

The United States is forced 60

they need.

hushchevs Explanation Of the Slack in Farm Production

For six hours last Monday,
Premier Khrushchev acting in
his role as First Secretary of the
Communist Party discussed the
alarming" condition of Soviet
agriculture.
Addressing the full meeting of
the Central Committee of the
Soviet Communist Party-the first
since last October's party con-
gress-Mr. Khrushchev listed with
candor all the problems facing
the agricultural sector of the
economy.
He noted that agriculture was
not keeping pace with rising in
ternal demand, and was not being
run on an economic basis. He
criticized traditional planting
systems, and he called for i'm
provements in the management Of
the countryside.
American experts long aware
Of the Soviet agricultural dilemma
said that Mr.. Khrushchev's
speech was one Of the frankest
expostions of Soviet problems
ever made by a Soviet leader. AL
though he promised great things
in the future, Mr.. Khrushchev
spared no punches in pushing for
a rapid increase in agricultural
production.
Mr.. Khrushchev seemed quite
concerned that If production did
not increase. the communist image
of success might be undermined
in the underdeveloped countries
of the world.
Excerpts from the speech follow:

Let there be no mistake about
it. General and complete disarm-
ament envisageS a degree of ma
tional Self-restraint and of in
ternational intervention in the
affairs of states which are abso-
lutely unprecedented.
Requires Self-Restroint
Obviously, we need not expect
to attain this well-nigh Utopian
goaLeasily or quickly. That would
be like seeking to reach Heaven
at single bound.
What we can hope to do is to
get at first things first. We can
tackle confidence building prof.
ects requiring relatively little out
side inspection, moving on from
these to more far-reaching meas
ures. This is what the President
has now pledged us to do. And
while this takes place, we can
begin the negotiation and studies
which could ultimately lead to one
or more broad disarmament
treaties.
For the first time in recent
years, eight countries not directly
associated either with NATO or
the Communist Warsaw pact will
be taking part in these negotia-
tons. This should serve to re-
mind us that disarmament Is not
just a Great Power problem, and
that power and influence in to-
days world rest on something
more than simple military
strength. The vast bulk Of hui
manity is not disposed to accept,
passively and wordlessly. the pos
sibility of determination without
representation.
The proposals Of the eight new
conference members, in addition
to those of the Russians, will pose
serious problems for the American
negotiating team at Geneva. Their
task calls for skill, flexibility, pa
thence and perseverance. It de-
mands an element Of political
leadership-up to and including
the heads of state who have
recognized their personal respon-
sibility in this matter.
If East and West come into the
Geneva conference determined to
break out Of the vicious circle of
the spiraling chronological arms
race, they have an unusual OPP
portunity to take the first steps
toward safer and Saner world.

THE SPEECH

The achievement in the socialist
world Of a higher standard Of
living than capitalism will once
more show millions of people in
non-socialist countries the ad-
vantages of socialism, will con-
stitute another powerful blow
against capitalism. -.
In our time, hundreds of mil
lions of people in the countries
of Asia, Africa, and Latin America
q. have entered the arena of
Independent development. E. The
greater the successes of our coun-
try, of all socialist countries in
economic and cultural develop
ment the easier it will be
for the people Of young national
states to make a choice In favor
Of socialism. -.

on the testing. production and
transfer of nuclear weapons brings
closer the moment when the Genie
will escape from the bottle.
When dozen or more States
have their fingers on nuclear
triggers. the possibility Of their
irresponsible release by someone,
somewhere, will be multiplied. Does
anyone doubt that Hitler would
have unleashed all the furies be-
fore he met his doom in the ruins
of Berlin?
Fortunately, we approach the
next round of disarmament nego-
tiations from an unusual back
ground Of Soviet-American CO.
operation. AS an outgrowth of con-
versations between the two parties
at the United Nations and else
where last year. we have worked
out a set of disarmament princi-
pies as a guide or framework for
future disarmament negotiations.
These have been endorsed by the
United Nations General Assembly.
Great Step Forward
While this Joint Statement of
Agreed Principles for Disarma-
ment Negotiations" Is not as spe-
cific in some ways as we would
like, it represents greater meas
ure of agreement on the basis for
achieving disarmament in a
peaceful and secure world than
the two powers have ever previ-
ously attained.
Nothing quite like this Joint
statement had ever been accepted
by the Soviet Union before. It's
Importance should not be unduly
magnified; it will not necessarily
be followed by any precise, bind
ing agreement. Indeed, there will
be sharp differences of opinion
even as to the meaning of it's
general terms.
One such hidden reef was re-
vealed even as the agreement was
submitted to the U. N. General
Assembly last September, when
the United States took pains to
insist that the provisions on veri-
fication must insure that we YER

inflicted on the cause of building
communism. We must be aware
that demands for food products
are growing rapidly and in the
future will grow even more rap
idly. And this is quite natural.
The population is increasing, real
wages and the working peoples
income are growing. Just look
what changes have taken place
in the country in the last few
years.
Increase in Population
Since 1853 the total population
Of the USSR has increased by 20
million, including an increase in
urban population of % million
1t seems the time is not far off
when our country's population
will reach $50 or $50 million.
Along with the growth in the
population of the Soviet Union, the
income Of workers is increasing
year after year Since 1858,
the income Of workers has in
creased by almost AZ billion
The sale through state trade of
the most valuable products, such
as meat, milk, butter, eggs and
sugar, has increased many times.
Per capita consumption of these
products has increased by IS to
so per cent with the growth in
the population by 20 million peo-
pie . Such an increase in con-
sumption requires that the rate
of output Of agricultural products
be steeply increased, that it cor
respond continuously with the
growing demands of the popula-
ton, that production outstrip
demand
Fulfillment Of seven-year plan
agricultural output is seriously
threatened. We must say this in
all frankness today at the plenum
of the Communist Party, and
what is most important - collec-
lively discuss the urgent measures
which must be carried out in the
field of agriculture to rectify the
situation
Seven Year Plan
In 1861, production fell short of
that envisaged in the seven-year
plan: grain l billion pounds; meat

of all arabic land under perennial
and annual grasses, oats and
clean fallow. i.
To make use of land which is
now under grass and fallow i.
it will be necessary to supply COL
lective and state farms with ad-
ditional machinery for sowing,
tending and harvesting. The
introduction of row crops also de-
mands additional mineral ferti-
lizers. In the current year, we
have also limited supplies of seeds
of fodder beans, peas and sugar
beet.
1t is possible to free this year
from grass and clean falloW, %
million hectares and to use this
land for more valuable crops.
Grosslonds Reform
Considering the tasks set by the
party for improvement in the
management of agriculture, we
must pay particular attention to
the elimination of the conse-
quences of the lea (grasslands)
farming system of Vilyams will
liams). You know the lea farm
ing system was adopted in our
country as a universal system
applicable to all regions of the
country.
Certain prominent scientists
who did not accept Vilyams' lea
farming system were declared en-
emies of the people. The lea
farming system, supported by
Stain, was forcibly introduced to
all regions of the country. -.
Why did Stain dwell on the lea
system Of agriculture, even though
it contradicted the great expert
ence of the West? It is not only
that he knew nothing about ag-
riculture. He was apparently cap
tivated by VilyamS' arguments to
the effect that less capital invest
ments are needed for agriculture
under the lea system, that it is
not necessary to build a large
number of plants to produce min
eral fertilizers.
We must treat tactfully those
scientists who have hitherto been
advocates of the lea farming Sys-
tenn. Party organizations will meet
the scientists half way. The Scien-
lists, themselves, however, must
state openly and honestly that
they have made mistakes by sup

and pledges, following which the
bright lights of publicity will be
dimmed and the process Of serious
negotiation can begin.
What will happen then?
If we were guided by past ex-
perience alone, the conference
would have to look forward to a
sorry future. Wrangling would
develop into deadlock. The dele
gates would Slog through their
business in an atmosphere of
deepening gloom, relieved by fit
full flashes of hope for progress
and ending when one party had
decided it was useless to con-
tinue.
This has been the classic pat
tern of disarmament conferences
convened since World War II and
for most Of those held in earlier
years.
Modern man has never been
able decisively to break through
the barriers of fear and suspicion
and lawlessness and to free him.
self from the cycle of war and
preparation for war.
He had better manage to do so
soon. Otherwise he risks megatonic
destruction.
Rare Opportunity
I am convinced that responsible
world leaders recognize that this
is so. That is why I believe we
now have a chance-an extraor-
binary chance and a very late
one-to shape a new design for
meaningful arms control.
It is fashionable to be cynical
or hopeless about disarmament
meetings. But people without per-
spective are prone to underrate
forces working for change in to-
days world Of rapid change. We
are living through a scientific
revolution, and its effects are no.
where more apparent than in the
arts of war.
Fifteen years ago general war
was still means of bending one
group Of nations to the will of
another group. Realistically de-
structive and expensive, it was
nevertheless tolerable: indeed,
with all their subsequent frustra-
lions and disappointments the
VictorS generally considered their
sacrifices necessary and worth
while.
1t Is no answer to these
manifestations Of cataclysmic
change to say that the clash of
rival nationalisns and ideologies
must make disarmament impos-
sible. The times cry out for
creative thinking on problems old
and new. We cannot be content
with horse-and-buggy diplomacy
In the missile age.
New Agency Set Up
For years many Of us have
been contending that If we could
put into the service of peace even
a small fraction of the scientific,
chronological, military and polit-
ical talent we lavish on war and
preparation for war, the results
might be dramatic. At long last
this goal is at least in view.
At President Kennedy's request,
Congress last year established the
new Arms Control and Disarma-
ment Agency. AS the studies and
plans of the new Disarmament
Agency come to fruition we should
