Kersten (R-Wi's.,) of his career before he fled to the west. “Genocide" has been defined before the United Nations as the mass destruction of racial or national groups. ' The former lieutenant colonel in the IMVD told the Keneten committee: “Mass deportation, genocide and similar brutalities are no more than the routine way of- owratian in the Soviet's book of enforcing their overlardship, regardless of whether it is over their own people or others.”The Kersten comujjttee ie investigating Russia’s Seizure in 1940 of the Baltic republics of Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia.

While the hushed audience listened the onetime MVD officer told how thousands of people were herded into cattle trucks and sealed in r ailroad carriages in bitterly cold weather during a 24-hour period.

The recommendation was made to agriculture secretary Ezra Taft Benson by members of trade missions which he sent to Europe, Asia and f-atin America. The trade experts told Benson they "deplore the necessity of having to resort to this type of device.” They explained that export subsidies “have become associated in the minds of people throughout the world as a dumping procedure.” But the members of the missions emphasized they de not favor “export pricing programs as dumping device to usurp the normal markets of friendly countries.” It was the consensus of the missions that the nation’s rigid, high price supports have priced some commodities, out of world markets and that export subsidies would help to restore the balance. The group told Benson that under current conditions “It will be necessary to resort to scene type of government export pricing program or lose our fair share of export markets for these commodities.” The trade experts warned, however, that export subsidies "should be used only as a last resort on a selective basis, commodity by commodity.” Under the plan, the government would guarantee to merchants through subsidy payments the full support price on commodities ship ped abroad when the world price is lower than the support level. A similar plan now is in operation under the international wheat agreement. Other recommendations made by the trade experts so help increase U. S. farm exports included: ; 1. A complete study of America's tariff set-up, with a view to reducing some tariffs so that more foreign products can be sold in the U. S. 2. Change the “Buy American” legislation so that nationals of other countries who promise reciprocal treatment to U. S. bidders are exempt. 3. The government should take steps to stimulate U. S. private investments abroad. Foreign nations should be appraised of U. S. pure food and drug regulations so they can meet these standards. 5. lEnactment of legislation to permit sale of U. S iarm surpluses for foreign ciu reneies. 6. Government assistance in providing foreign credit for U. S. axporters. -■ _ t South Bend Host To 1955 Moose Conclpve INDIANAPOLIS (INS) — The 1955 state convention of the Loyal Order of Moose will be held in South Bend.' .

Hollywood Producer Visits Here Briefly

By MARLENE LAURENT (Staff Reporter) Trouble with his car and the need of some clothes were responsible for a brief visit of a Hollywood writer-producer-director Saturday. Peering through on his way to Monterey, Calif., F. Herrick Herrick stopped here for car repair and to visit the Morris Begun clothing store. He had purchased clothing at that store a few years ago. Herrick Herrick# (and that is his real name), has written so many books ho can’t remember the names of ail of them. He is especially noted for his specialty, photography, and for his documentary films and movies on natural life. A native of Wisconsin, Herlick ran away from home when he was 16 to go to sea. Later, ’Just by accident,” he says, be became private secretary of the late Basil King, famous novelist. Through King Herrick was introduced to the literary world and was inspired to write accounts of his adventures for the Baltimore Sun. The beginning of his literary career was not the end of his career in adventures. In 1921 he hitchhiked across the United States, a project promoted by the Baltimore Sun. • - He came through Decatur during that jaunt and remembers the city as a charming little town with unpaved streets. X.— The t 52-year-old man, who doesn't mind admitting his age, has since gone on whaling expeditions and been a big game hunter. He has Two Naval Fliers Killed In Collision Passengers Unhurt On Second Airplane COLUMBUS, 0., (INS) — A probe was begun today into the mid-air collision of an American Airlines passenger ship and a navy plane which took the lives of two naval reserve fliers at Port Columbus Sunday night.
