Hmt-RkH (Wp«L Os Crops Predicted Surpluses May Bring New Support Crisis Washington. Mm. Mj-lUF) — Despite mountainous surpluses alrnady staeked la Uncle Barn's Ibckars, farmers this year plan to go on producing big surpluses ot moat major crops including potatoes. An official survey ot farmers' planting tntanlions raised prospects. today ot another year of near-Mcord production. It so. Surpluses piling up from the 1950 harvest may bring on a naw support crisis. To support farm prices, the government for two years has been Investing in farm surpluses at a rate ot about 12.000.000,000 a year. The administration, congress. taxpayers, consumers and farmers are wondering how long it can go on. The next congress may have to decide between imposing unprecedented government controls over farming, or limiting price supports to a half-dosen crop* for which rigid controls now are authorized. The planting report, published by the agriculture department yesterday, showed: 1. The government's. limited planting controls on 1950 crops won't curb overall surplus pjant-f Ings Most farmers plan either to over-plant their acreage allotor surpluses of crops not under control As a result; total plantings may drop only two or three percent below last year’s

18-year high. .8. President Truman's budget tor the flseat year beginning, fifing July 1 apparently underestimated the price support drain on the treasury. Prospect# now are thst the net price support outlay will soar well above Mr. Truman's estimate of >952.900.000. 3. Another surplus potato headache is in prospect. The department said the expected 185 V plantings — although the smallest in 72 years-would produce another big surplus ot 50,000,000 bushels, W per acre yields equal the average ot the last two years. --■ Potato producers plan to cut plantings three percent, instead ot six, as requested by the government . Except tor potatoes, congress is not likely to do anything about the farm surplus problem at thia session. The house already has passed J, senate-house compromise which would;, deprive potato producers of price support on their 1951 crop unless they accept rigid produrtion controls.The senate has yet to act on the bill The plant report also showed: A continued feed grain surplus is in prospect, cArn farmers intend to reduce plantings six percent. But this acreage reductioii would be more than offset by prospective increases in plantiugs of oats, barley and sorghums The government's planting allotment called for a 13 percent cut In coru plantings. •4>ne of -the- earliest— technical treatises on the art of making.clay tlles for floors and walls was writ ten in UuJ by a Version named Abulqaslm Abdullah tbn All ibn t Muhammed ibn Abi Tahir
