Partisan Bottle
Over Farm Bill
EmbroiIs Senate
BY the Associated Press

The Senate exploded into bit.
ter partisan debate today ovel
House action killing the ad-
ministration's farm bill.
Sen. Morse. Democrat Of
Oregon, challenged Republi-
cans to make their opposition
to the strict-controls measure
an issue in the congressional
campaign.
Noting that former Presi-
dent Eisenhower had applaud
ed the House action in a speech
at q $l00-a-plate Republican
timer here last night. Sena-
tor Morse told his colleagues:
II am ready to take on that
great farmer from Gettysburg
Wen make it a partisan issue
If that's what the Republicans
want"
Gen. Eisenhower had ap-
plauded the defeat Of what he
referred to as "the legislative
monstrosity that was based
upon a ruthless concept of
ruling or running American
agriculture"
Senators Williams, Republ-
can Of Delaware, and Ellender,
Democrat of Louisiana, clashed
over the issue Of whether the
defeated bill would have saved
the taxpayers money. Senator
williams said 1t would not have,
and Senator Ellender said 1t
would.
When Senator Ellender said
Senator williams was ignorant
Of what was in the bill, the
Delaware Republican flared
back: p.
"1f the Senator says I'm ig-
norant. I'll have to accept that
because I know Of no man on
the Senate floor more qualified
to Judge ignorance than the
Senator from louisiana"

terday as saying he never would
agree to a voluntary acreage
reduction plan.
Unless Congress enacts some
such extension as the Cooley
bill provides, the farm legisla-
tive situation will revert to the
law advocated by former Sec
rotary of Agriculture Benson
and approved by a Democratic
controlled Congress in 1858.
During three days of House
debate this week on the Ken
nedy administrators farm
bill, Democrats repeatedly
blamed the Benson Law" for
the massive farm SURPRISES now
in storage warehouses.
Mr.. Cooley, as he introduced
his new bill yesterday, said it
would salvage something from
the wreck of the administra-
TONS program in the House.
He called his committee into
session for Monday morning
and said he hoped 1t would re-
port out the bill the same day.
His action, repeatedly the re-
suit of a conference with Sec
Rotary Of Agriculture Freeman,
climaxed a day Of charges and
counter-charges by Democratic
and Republican congressional
leaders as to the reasons for
and possible effects Of the re-
lection of the administration
bill. Mr.. Freeman also issued
q denunciation of what he
called the Republican Party's
blind opposition to every farm
bill except Benson's."

Negotiutors OK
Ford Truce

CLEVELAND, June % (AP) .
An end to the 17-day-old To-
cal strike which resulted in
layoffs of 1900 Ford Motor
Co. employees across the coun-
try was in sight today.
Top-level negotiators for
Ford and the United Auto
Workers Union reached agree
ment last night to settle all
issues involved in the strike at
the suburban Walton Hills
stamping plant.
The 5000 members Of JAW
Local 420 will be called on to
ratify the agreement tomorrow
morning. No details will be is
sued until then.
A joint announcement Of the
agreement was made by Man.
ton M. (Mike) Cummins, Ford's
director of labor relations, and
Ken Bannon, chief of the
unions Ford department. Both
bargaining teams had been
meeting with Federal media
tors.
The chief argument in the
production standards dispute
involved how many quarter
panels should be turned out.
The union claimed only 237 of
the 16-pound panels used on
passenger automobiles could be.
produced in one hour, while
the company insisted on 800.
1t is believed that engineer
ing plans will be changed to,
permit a new quota on panels.
Apparently both sides COM
promised on their positions.

POINTE-A-PITRE, Guade-
loupe, June % (AP).-French
and American aviation experts
converged today on a scorched
Swath Of tropical jungle where
an Air France Boeing TOT jet
liner crashed in a raging thun-
derstorm. All 113 persons
aboard were killed.
Police blocked off the crash
scene until representatives OF
the United States Civil Aero
nautics Board and Federal Az
iation Agency teamed with
French air experts from Paris to
inspect wreckage of the second
worst single-plane disaster In
commercial aviation history.
The four-engine airliner
smashed into a hill and burst
into flames on this French Car
ibbean island early yesterday
shortly after winging over
Pointe-a-Pitre's Raizet Airfield
in the start of a landing ap-
proach after a flight from
Paris.
The plane slammed into
Mules Back Hill, 10 miles from
the field, off the usual landing
approach pattern.
Fuel Supply Adequate
Air France said the plane
carried sufficient fuel to have
enabled the pilot to have flown
on to its next scheduled stop,
Caracas, Venezuela, about 500
miles to the southwest.
Air France officials revised
the casualty list several times

White School Request
Withdrawn by Father

POWHATAN, Va, June 2;
(AP).-The father Of two
Negro children seeking trans.
fer to a white school in Pow.
hatan County has withdraw
the requests, blaming it all or
a misunderstanding.
William E. Vaughan of neal
Midlothian. a Richmond bak.
cry worker, said his wife made
what he called an honest error
when she signed the transfer
applications.
The two Vaughan children
were the only ones among 81
Negro children seeking trans
fer who live closer to the
county's consolidated white
school than to the Negro
school.
The withdrawal could be a
key factor in the approach
the State Pupil Placement
Board takes in acting on the
transfers. In the past, the
board has rejected applications
from Negroes who lived closer
to Negro schools than to white
schools.
Could withhold Funds
Samuel w. Bonifant, chair
man of the Powhatan Board
Of Supervisors, has said the
board would, seriously consid-
Ter" holding back funds to op.
crate public schools rather thar
permit racial indignation.
Similar action in Prince Ed
ward County. one county re-
moved, has kept public school:
closed for three years. Re-
Gently, the Prince Edward
Board Of Supervisors adopted
q county budget for the next
year which again omits school
funds.
The placement board. with
authority over school assign
ments and transfers in most
Of the State, considered the
81 applications in Powhatar
Wednesday and decided to act
on them next Wednesday.

tended summer auctions, Of
which there are half q dozen q
week in Washington, hold
more promise for the seeded
bargain hunter than the fancy,
catalogued winter sales. Or
dinarily there are not many
really handsome pieces at any
single summer auction, but
there are always q few goodies
tucked away in the rubble,
and the toughest chat is, rich
est) competition is of lOlly-
gagging ut the beaches or
somewhere.
The definition Of bar
gain" is highly subjective, one
mans bargain being another
mans mortgage payment, but
there are genuine bargains for
almost everybody at summer
auctions. Che irrelevant, or
masculine, definition Of q bar
gain includes the idea that an
object so described must serve
some practical purpose. This
view will receive as little con-
sideration here as 1t does
elsewhere.

price of $11O each for four ele-

NV; auctions every Tuesday
and Friday, which also gets
some Of the best antiques
around.
Almost everywhere, goods
are displayed before the sale
and onlythe most intrepid gam
bier should bid on anything
without careful, prior examin-
alton. There are no money
back guarantees or free home
trials in this business, and the
emptor had jolly well better
caveat "a two-legged table in
my basement at this very mo-
ment is o more painful illus
tration Of this point than !
care to dwell on.)
Even If the prospective
buyer lacks the expertise to
identify a Queen Anne chair Of
the Philadelphia type by its
ribbed arm supports, ball-and-
claw feet, shell Oh knees and
rolled splat, he can examine it
for general condition, wiggle IL
to see if the joints are loose,
and sit in it to see if il is com
Portable. (MOst people, ] sup
pose, would have the presence
Ofmind TO count the legs.)
Prudent auction goers de-
eide firmly, in advance Of the
bidding, exactly how high they
can afford to 60 on an item.
This formula Is based on the
objects immediate functional,
decorative or sentimental
worth (as compared, say, to q
brand new whatzit from the
department st0re), plus the
current balance in the check
ing account, divided by the
number Of days before payday.
In this way q sensible
maximum figure is easily
reached. But there is no known
way Of sticking to il i'm the
heat of battle. when the bid
ding leaps above the pre-
determined figure, only the
stout Of heart resist making
rapid and inaccurate ealcula-
tions as 10 how the family
budget might be reconstructed

willingness Of some TO sell,
sometimes at q small loss,
what they have, moments be-
fore, fought resolutely to win.
Dealers are the natural
enemies Of amateur auction
goers. They have superior
knowledge, cool heads, wads
Of money and occasionally
they also seem to have an
infuriatingly warm personal
relationship with the auc-
tioneer. ct is my impression
that they also have little,
squinty eyes, rather too
closely set, but this observe
ton might not stand up in
eOurt.)
They don't wear badges;
so it is quite possible that
many dealers escape identifi-
cation, but, at the first sus-
picion, the word is spat from
chair to chair and row to row,
like the jungle birds chirps
Of alarm at the approach of a
leopard.
II wouldn't be surprising
If all auctioneers preferred q
satisfied dealer STEADY Gus
toner to q satisfied amateur
(dilettante), but q few auc-
tiOneers give dealers an ad-
vantage so blatant as to amount
to dirty pool. The most fire.
quently used method Of
dealer-eoddling occurs when.
the bidding is jogging along
at q normal pace. Suddenly
q new voice injects q slightly
higher bid. The gavel bangs,
and the sale is consummated
before the original bidders
can speak again. q have never
observed these shady prae-
tees at any Of the auction
houses listed here.)
The presence Of dealers,
however, Is absolutely essen
tial to the success Of an aue-
ton. Beating out o dealer for
q desired object enhances the
value fourfold. This splendid
moment is the World Series,
the Masters, the Mount Everest
Of craftsmanship.

ENERGY. Much of it gets
up and goes between 50 and
81. The couple at 50 should
plan activities - and learn
to be content with activities
that they see 62-year-olds
following. There are many of
them, and they are good. But
they aren't the demanding
doings Of the early SOS.
The people who think
most earnestly of retirement
are 28-year-old housewives
with small children. They
write me asking how they can
start planning. These are
troublesome years. The young
wives yearn for escape. Re-
tirement is the promised land.
And they look at retirement
through 2S-year-old eyes.
Many in the early SOS do
likewise.

SOS and longer, and what
they can do to keep from be-
ing invalids.
STATUS. There is a bit of
it at So, much less of it at
81. Youth is still associated
with the early SOS and there
are jobs in the church, civic
affairs, the company that
can be had. Especially in the
company, because in the
mid-50's or late SOS many
men hit their peaks in ca
reers. So a certain amount of
glamor attaches to the man
who still may go somewhere.
Therefore the couple of 50
who plans retirement at 81
should know they will not be
as desirable to others when
retirement comes as they are
now, and develop something
within themselves that will
give them the statue they
want.

The couple owns two small
houses, side by side. They
live in one and rent out the
other for $50 a month. At
the moment they have $l0.-
900 in savings. Their aim Is
$4,000 before they are 81.
I'VE never made an at
tempt to keep up with the
Joneses," the wife says, 80
we don't have their head
aches"
What are the leaks in this
plan?
Financially, l see few. So
cial Security payments will
probably be increased in the
next 10 years. So may pay
mentS from the profit-shar-
ing plan. With such pros
poets, and with the two small
houses, the couple probably
could get by. But the infla-
ton that comes In 10 years
