Chimney Speaks
At Rotary Clubs
Farmers Dinner
Farmers Must Seek
Outlets Outside OF
Common Market

The Farmville Rotary Club
honored the farmers in the area
Thursday night at Farmers
Night Banquet. Each member of
the club brought guest farmer
TO the banquet meeting, high
Lighted by a speech by Richard
d. Chimney. state Commission
or Of Agriculture.
Chimney said the greatest
challenges facing the farmer to-
day are the many adjustments
that he must face. The farmer
is having to adjust to an age
Of advanced mechanics. atoms.
and space travel
| He is also faced with the prob
lem OF having to provide food
for some 179.323,l75 people. BY
1873 the farmer can expect this
figure to be 375 100000. Chum-
ney said that every 10 sec
onds there is a net gain in the
population Of the United States.
The problem Worsens When you
stop to think that the farmers in
the United States are feeding not
only the people in this country,
but the people in many of the
other countries in the world.
The demand for the export of
farm products in large quantities
has also increased greatly in the
past few years. Chimney said
that this could be seen by tax
ing look at The Manhattan, the
world S largest grain vessel, that
has recently been locked at
Hampton Roads. This ship is SO
large, that it could accommodate
the entire annual Virginia Wheat
production in one load. the an
maui soybean crop in two loads,
and the annual corn crop in
seven loads.
With such large market for
his crops, the modern farmer
must not only be an educated
agronomlst, but a good business
man. according to Chimney.
Chimney said that segments
of the Virginia farm industry
may have to look to foreign
markets outside the c o m III n
Market countries.
He said that the state poultry
industry in recent months has
lost market for about 81 500
600 a year in exports because of
Common Market tariffs, Chum-
ney said this loss points up the
need for a search by the State
Agriculture Department for new
markets.

SUMMARY

} IKE'S BUDGET CUT
FREIGHTER FIRED ON
CUBAN ATTACKS

DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS
have challenged former Presi-
dent Eisenhower to show how
he would cut the proposed fed
eral budget by 10 to IL billion
dollars. Senate majority leader
Mike Mansfield tD-Mont) joined
House Speaker John w. McCor-
mick in calling for a bill of
particulars on how he would go
about pairing the 1O8 billions in
new appropriations recommend
ed by President Kennedy. This
figure includes advance approx
al of funds as well as the 1913
billions budgeted for fiscal 1858
81. Eisenhower said in a letter
to House minority leader Charles
A. Halleck tR-Ind) that he was
mot now in a position to speci-
~ the detailed reductions that
can be made However, Hal
leck said the proposed military
pay hike would be one of the
detectives of the COPS budget

AN AMERICAN FREIGHT
Err, the Floridian. was fired on
by Soviet-bult MIG jets Thurs
day night in international waters
north Of Cuba, but the ship was
not hit. Havana sent a note to
Washington Friday saying the
Jets probably fired in error. ;"
The State Department called
the note unsatisfactory and de-
manded complete explana-
ton. but the note seemed to
take the fuse out of an other
wise explosive situation. Infor-
mants in Havana said Premier
Castro had promised to send the
U. S. a full explanation.
hOSSlA mas accused the U.
S. of promoting hit-and-run at
lacks on Cuba by Cuban eXiles
and demanded restitution for a
Soviet ship damaged off the
north coast of Cuba. The State
Department has vigorously de-
MED any responsibility for the
attacks and said Saturday it
will take every step necessary"
to see that these raids do not
originate on American soil. One
step would be to ask the Coast
Guard to step up its surveillance
of the Florida coast to intercept
Cuba bound ships. Ano her,

time. However, when the ruling
by the U. S. Fourth Circuit of
Appeals is handed down, an
sWerS may begin to emerge.
This brings up another ques-
ton, when will the U. S. Fourth
Circuit Court hand down its rul-
ing?" Some observers predict
that the Federal appellate court
will make its decision in h c
present session in Alexandria
which ends next Friday.
Another question is H W
much influence will the State
Circuit Court opinion carry with
the Fourth Circuit of Appeals?"
This is almost impossible to
answer. Collins Denny, Jr, at
torney for the Prince Edward
School Board has pointed out
that the u S. Supreme Court
has repeatedly held that t h c
IS t a e courts are tribunals
which are to give the final and
determlnative Interpretation of
State law and what State law
means"
The present case points up di-
rect conflict between the State
court and a decision Of Judge
Oren R. Lewis in the Federal
district court. Denny also said
the conflict is significant be
cause Judge Lewis decision was
based on an Interpretation Of
State, not federal law.
Tuition Grants?
One of the questions foremost
in the minds of many parents
in Prince Edward County is
whether tuition grants will be
made available again and if
SO, when? According to the State
