dairy laud state.' Lester Johnson defeated the Republican candidate in a landslide and politicians are stunned over the upset, interpreted by those who try to find a reason for such a revolt in the staid Wisconsin district, Secretary Benson is blamed for the GOP defeat. The political leaders say that the farmers are opposed to Mr. Benson’s program. This is the first election in which a Democrat will take a Republican seat in congress, although in five previous contests since 1952, Democrats have won in normally Democratic territory. 0 o G-E'^Anniversary:— In 1878 the General Electric Company, now the world’s largest electrical manufacturer was bbrn. Thirteen investors pooled $300,000 to back Thomas A. Edison’s development of an electric lamp and from that day to this America took on a new light. General Electric emerged from this organization. rToday G-E is a giant in the industrial field. Including the Decatur plant, 131 manufacturing units are scattered throughput the country. The local plant was established in 1920 and has progressed with the Company's vast —growth. G-E employs more than 230,000 persons in its modern plants. ■ j Ralph J. Cordiner, able president of the G-E does not think that the company he so capably directs has reached its peak In production. He predicts, “the electrical industry is just geeting Its second wind.” Optimistically he says “that the electrical industry will produce as much in the next ten years as it has in the past 75 years of its history.” That is good news for Decatur and wherever G-E plants are located. \ This newspaper extends greetings to the General Electric Company on the 75 th anniversary of its founding.

United States May Cut Aid To Yugoslavia Economic Aid Cut \\ Likely Because Os Congress Slashes WASHINGTON UP — Allied Yugoslav relations, already tadt as a bow string because of the Trieste dispute, may receive a newtest in a shoivdown on economic aid, it was learned today. Indications are that America will have to cut its economic assistance for Belgrade because of heavy congressional slashes in the foreign aid program for Europe. The United States, Britain and France allocated about $150,000,000 in economic aid to the Tito government during the fiscal year that ended July 30. This was in addition to military assistance ranging from jet planes to tanks. Negotiations on a new- economic aid agreement are understood to be underway now in Belgrade. Among other things involved is a Yugoslav request for 430,00 b tons of U. S. wheat to help stabilize its economy. Os the $150,000,000 contributed by the Big Three during the past fiscal year, the United States provided about $120,00d\)00. The American share under the new program may drop off to about informed sources said the three western powers are not trying to use new aid as a lever to force Yugoslavia’s agreement on the U. S.-British decision to surrender Zone A of Trieste to Italy. Aid cuts
