Farm Leaders Meet With Ag Secretary More Reorganization , Planned By Benson WASHINGTON UP — Secretary of agriculture Ezra Taft Benson has given the nation’s largest farm organization assurances that there will be further reorganization and “decentralization” in his department, a .spokesman said today. Roger Fleming, secretary;treasurer of, the American Farm Bureau Federation, made the, statement after meeting with other farm leathers in Benson’s office Tuesday. He was asked how the Federation felt about the -newi farm administration and Benson’s early regrouping moves. Fleming said Benson’s decision to group the, department’s agencies under four top aides was a good first step. He said, however, that the federation sees a need for more "substantial reorganization and decentralization” before the streamlining job is done. He said Benson “goes along” with that Idea. Fleming added that Benson’s' “sincere desire” .to cooperate with the farm organizations is a “refreshing contrast with attitudes which have prevailed sometimes in the past.” James Patton, president of the National Farmers Union, was not as enthusiastic. He said Benson is a “very fine, honest, capable man” a “good friend.” But he said 1 he expectsjie will "have a'' different point ofj view" on some farm problems from Benson — whom he described as “conservative.” Patton, whose organization w»s a staunch supporter of former secretary Charles F. Brannan, said, however, tha( he “certainly” desires to “cooperate”; with Benson. Others attending Tuesday’s brief session with Benson were Herschel Newsom, master of the National Grange, and Homer L.

Klein and J. v Hunter. CONGRESSMEN . (Cnwflnurd From PnQuo) nist wqrld is equipped “modern weapons that include atomic bombs." A Members of the house-senate atomic/ energy committee, privy tyy Haw to all information on matters nuclear, Issued statements individually anck in groups asserting flatjy that Russia achieved the Abomb in 1949 and has been stockpiling it ever since. They said the United States has indisputable evidence that this, is so and the evidence was available to Mr. Truman when he was President. It is la fact of public record that Mr. Truman from the White H(tase three times announced Soviet 1 explosions, one in 1949 and two in 1951. It is also a fact that he referred to one of them as v the explosiqn of “another atomic bomb.’'’ Three key members of the congressional atomic committee issued a joint statement late Tuesday about the first Soviet bomb test. "Perhaps never in the history of intellegence has such clear-cut evidence been examined so exhaustively so often to arrive at the same simple and unavoidable conclusion.”- they said. The conclusion was “that the Soviets had indeed tested a bomb.” Authors of the statement were Rep. W. Sterling Cole R-N.Y., House candidate for the committee chairmanship; Rep. Carl Durham R-N.G-, former chairman; and Sen. Bourke Hickenlooper R-la. former chairman and senate candidate for the post in the 83rd congress. Some authorities—among them chairman Gordon Dean of the atomic energy committee and former civil defense administrator Millard F. Caldwell—thought I Mr/Truman had been “misunderstood.” When the former President ’ stqod bn his statement, refusing to simplify it. Dean stood on one the AEC chief made, two years ago: “Russia does Have the bomb.” Thie Army Ordnance Corps is the largest of the Army’s seven technical services. It has more than 160.000 military and civilian employees at more than 100 installations throughout the L’hited States.
