Where will the money come from?" The only optimistic note which hinted that the company's 9.000 operating and maintenance workers would be on the job Saturday came from Mayor Joseph S.

Authoritative sources revealed that the two men were expected to agree today on the selection of a retired British diplomat. Sir William Strang, for the post. The agreement also provides for continued French economic advantage in the Saar. For this reason, the accord has come under heavy criticism from Adenauer's political opponents.

Cpoley also is confident the move will be victorious when it comes before the full house if no compromise is presented as was done last year. In 1954, President Eisenhower’s lieutenants on Capital hill moved the flexible Support minimum from 75 to 82 and one-half percent of parity to gain approval of the measure. Cooley's bill would restore 90 percent supports for the crops of 1955. 1956 and 1957. A similar plan Is expected to be presented to the senate agrlculutre committee, where the going probably will be much rougher than in the house committee. Senate agriculture committee chairman Allen J. Ellender (D La.) has already voiced his opposition to changing the present flexible farm price law’ during this session of congress. He advocated giving it a year's trial and revising it in 1956 if it proved unworkable. Ellender told newsmen he duobted if the President would sign a rigid price support bill.

Sharp Criticism Os Farm Export Policy House Committee Criticizes Policy WASHINGTON (INS) - Top agriculture department officials ran head on into some sharp criticism of farm export policy and production controls the very first time they appeared before a committee of the new Democratic congress. This came to light today in published hearings of the house subcommittee on agricultural appropriations in connection with a request for a comparatively small increase in funds to pay administrative expenses of the price-sup-portin commodity credit corporation between now and June 30. - During the sessions earlier this week there was quite a set-to between subcommittee chairman Jamie L. Whitten (DMiss.) and under - secretary of agriculture True D. Morse. Secretary Ezra Taft Benson. Morse and other officials appeared io explain why CCC needs 125.290.000 instead Os the 18 million it originally requested to pay operating expenses in the current fiscal year. \’\- They said the extra' 17,290.000 must be forthcoming for two sons: First, because CCC’s work load is much heavier than anticipated as a result of tremendous amounts of wheat, cdtton, feed grains and other commodities flowing into the support program. Second, it is costing more than expected to carry out a vigorous sales program designed to move some of these surpluses into the foreign market under special agreements with other countries. Whitten's views were expressed in large measure by a report he inserted in the record covering a trip he made to eight western European countries last fail. • The report contained these quotes: "American agriculture must be represented in future international agreemnets, for those now making concessions for the United States do not know the subject. “The United States does not help needy people by holding back what they need. The government weakens the American economy by cutting American farmers back to set people up in business in foreign countries. “American farm-support laws are essential to offset costs of other laws, but any farm program to succeed must use authority of present law to sell what we produce and do not need on a competitive basis to the people of the world.” Whitten’s chief gripe was that the state department is restricting sales of U. S. farm surpluses abroad for fear of wrecking foreign markets. There was this exchange: Whitten: "We are the only nation in the world which has things that we do not need and will not sell them.” Morse: ‘■'l cannot stress too strongly the fact that we have made what to us seems like very encouraging progress, and to do this job constructively we think we should have the cooperation and work with the state department the treasury department and so forth . . Whitten: “It makes me think we should have somebody else to look after agriculture, then.” DULLES ON (Continued from Page One) against aggression by the Communists.
