Income From Truck Crops To Decrease Processors Demand . For Crops Weakens WASHINGTON (INS) — The agriculture department said today hat farmers probably will be paid less this year than last for truck crops grown for processing. Lower prices are expected because of expected weaker demand this year than last by vegetables processors. The total quantity of tommercially processed vegetables is expected to be smaller in 1954 than in 1953.

Despite reduced demand by processors. mid-year reports showed that increased acreage had been planted to green lima beans, snap beans, and pimentos. A general reduction in prices paid farmers for their truck crops expected to correspond with an overall decline in farm prices in the months ahead, due to the abundance of crop and livestock production thia year. Demand for fresh vegetables, however, priobably will continue strong, and overall production of vegetables for the fresh market is expected to be five percent larger this summer .than last. July heat has damaged some truck crops across the nation, but so far the department has had no indication of any substantial change in prospects for 1954. Lower prices are expected to continue for watermelons, while higher prices should be in order for onions and potatoes. In mid-June, the index of prices received by farmers for commercial fresh vegetables averaged nine percent less than one year ago. Onions are expected to be the leading summer crop in terms of total value since this year’s crop is expected to be more than 25 percent smaller than last year’s. Farmers who grow onions commercially are due for a price rise. During the first halt of this year prices were more than 59 percent below those of a year ago. This situation is changing rapidly now. Heavy supplies of onions carried over from 1953 were reduced sharply by spring, and a 25 percent smaller spring-season crop this year added to the firming up of the onion market. » - The 1964 potato crop is estimated at 345 million 600 thousand bushels — almost eight percent smaller than the 1953 crop. Prices during the reat of 1954 are expected to

average appreciably higher than last year. Prices for potatoes became so low last year and early in 1954 that the industry demanded special government aid to pull it through the financial crisis. Congress pressed legislation giving the government permission to buy potatoes for the school lunch program and other charitable outlets as away to diminish the surplus. • The agriculture department also has recommended a potato marketing order to help Maine potato growers. Japs May Promote Red China Trade Drop In American Orders Is Blamed TOKYO (IN) —Japan’s deputy prime minister declared today that a drop in American orders for Japan in the last year has forced a switch to a policy of promoting trade with Red China instead. Taketora Ogata, second in command to prime minister Shlgeru Yoshida, said the new trade outlook of the Japanese government was one of the chief reasons for Yoshida's planed world tour in the fall. Ogata said Yoshida wants to convince the U. S. tliat Japan must tear down her self-imposed trade barriers with the Reds if she is to become self-sufficient and economically strong. Ogata’s statement was the first, official word of a Japanese government turnabout on the question of the Red China trade issue. Previously, the pro - American conservative government of prime minister Yoehida maintained that trade with Communist China would not offer the rich rewards businessmen looked for and would simply allow the Reds to win a foothold in Japan. This week, however, Yoshida appointed Hayato Ikeda to the key post of Libera] party secretary general. Ikeda is the staunchest supporter of trade with Red China in the higher echelons of the ruling party. Ikeda’s view that Japan can ttrade with the Reds and still maintain her friendly relations with the U. S. are vigorously opposed by foreign minister Katsuo Okazaki. How the views of these top Liberal party leaders will be reconciled is not clear. The Japanese press Is predicting a knock-down intra-party fight over the explosive issue because of Japan’s weak economic position.

(INS) A 17-year-old youth, wanted for questioning in connection with the fatal shooting oT his younger friend, "surrendered today to Madison police, Madison police chief Ralph Brother said that the boy was in a state of hunger and near-exhaustion when he walked into headquarters after hitchhiking to Indianapolis and back. He said he spent most of his Indianapolis stay on his knees, praying in a Catholic church. While a technical warrant had been placed against the youth, Richard Sheehy, after he disappeared following the fatal shooting of Donnie Urseth, 11, police are inclined to believe the slaying may have been accidental.

Rita's Attorney Threatens Battle Aly Khan Home Life Hearing Threatened NEW YORK (INS) — 'a "showdown” court hearing telling all about Aly Khan's hoAie life and girl friends — including some of the world’s most famous beauties — threatened today by Bartley .Crum, lawyer for Rita Hayworth.

Under this decision full custody was to be restored to Rita in three months, or last Monday. Aly's counsel unexpectedly moved for a one week's extension of the court's custody, until next Monday and it was this action that brought Crum’s promise of fireworks. "We'll show them the kind of home life Aly leads,” Crum said grimly. "No doubt I’ll have to subpoena some of his current girl friends, but I’ll do il- It's about, time we had a showdown!” Crum did not say whether blueeyed actress Gene Tierney would be Included In the "current” category. nor would he name any among the several other beauties whose names have been linked with Aly in recent months.
