S. withdraw from the entire area.' ’ ■ ‘ ~ Sea. Mike Mansfield (D-Mont) a-senate'foreign relations committee member, gaid the United t Nations negotiations for a ceasefire is to be debased this He pointed out that thd forelgn relations group will consider Tuesday the resolution proposed by Sen. Hubert Humphrey (DMinnp urging the President to press for a cease-fire. The Russian demand that the UN security council call for American withdrawal from the Formosan area with a cease-fire merely to permit such evacuation may complicate action on the Humphrey resolution. However, the state department
considered the Soviet proposal i ~ typical Communist maneuver, an< assistant secretary of state f o far eastern affairs Walter S. Rc bertson declared: "I don’t thinl that changes the situation at all.' Robertson warned that if Com munist China carries out iti threats against the Nationalists “they do so at the risk of wa with the United States.” The top state department off! rial said he was speaking only foi himself, but he is high in polici determination on Far Fasten Issues. In a grim warning, Robertsoi declared that “wars are startec when the enemy miscalculates' and ftld that if Red China’s lead er Chou En-Lai “is not bluffing there is great danger of war.” Meanwhile, the Southeast Asii defense treaty wil) be the pend ing business when the senate re convenes Tuesday, and legislator! said this alone will invite more debate on the - whole question o' Formosa defense and the Arneri can-supported cease-fire talks ii the UN.

is to prevent him from getting back.” ~ Senate QOp leader William F. Knowland (R-Calit.) a foreign relations member, warned the administration bluntly over the week-end, against “appeasement" of Red China in any cease-fire agreement. He rejected reports that Nationalist China will be asked to give up Quemoy and Matsu as part of a cease-fire •‘deal." Knowland made it dear he did not oppose a cease-fire as such, so long as it maintained the “status quo" in territory for Nationalist China - L «* Another Republican, Sen. George Bender, Ohio, contended that the Formosa resolution puts the ‘U. S. in a stronger position and has lessened danger of allout war. But, he added that the U. S. "must be in a position, if necessary, to go it alone, but I hope that will not be necessary." Part-Time Farming Growing In Nation Part-Time Farming In U. S. Fairly New WASHINGTON (INS) — Parttime farming is something fairly new on the American agricultural scene. ...... The movement got its big push, of course, during World War 11 when industrial plants were screaming for every available worker to keep their production lines going full tilt. Today there is no wartime pressure, but many farmers and members of their families still are glad to have part time jobs, especially if they happen to live on small acreages which bring in only a little income. The effect actually is beneficial in two ways. The more the industrial establishment of the country expands, the larger will be the demand for milk, eggs, poultry and a host of other commodities the producer has for market. For a closer look at what has been happening, let’s take the state of Ohio as an example. / Extension workers estimate that bne-third of the state’s farm families earn more than half of their income from jobs away from the farm. Fully half of Ohio’s farmers now earn part of their income in nonfarm Jobs. One might think, this a case of a man trying to serve two masters, blit it doesn’t work out Wafeeißiky- Men whp were good farmees, beftf a are just as painstaking with their crops after taking outside jobs. In Ohio at least, it seems the situation works both ways. Industrial workers who found themselves with time on their hands after the 40-hour work week was initiate decided it would b<f a good idea to put those extra working hours into a small farm. They’ve done just that-many of them. Advent of the machine age also had had something to do with the part time farming trend. Increased use of machines means that frequently some mebers of the family find they're unneeded on the farm, especially during the slack season. Sociologists generally view the trends as a healthy one. They believe it will encourage more people to stick with rural communities instead of moving to the city. Ohio is a highly industrialized state and what is happening there cannot be considered an accurate picture of what goes on in the country as a whole. But the difference is merely one of degree. Even the least industrialized state in the nation has a growing number of part time farmers. Whether the operation is one to bring in some additional cash income on merely to provide food for the family, farm management specialists still thing it's all to the

RIDGWAY (Continued from Page Onei decided to cut 70,000 men frftm the army goal of 1,170,000 set by congress for the current fiscal year. Vinson declared that the decision "was made without consulting with this committee or the appropriations committee,” which alloted the funds. Stevens, when asked by Via-on whether the reduction in army personnel would mean the abandonment of any American commitments. replied that he "did not think it would but added: “I don’t know.” - 1 toll Stevens, in his prepared testimony. said the nation'K"'reserve forces must be brought quickly to combat readiness to answer m.y emergency. Only then, he added, can the U.S. offset the time advantage that is “a built-in military feature of the totalitarian state." Army chief of staff Matthew B. Ridgway was to appear later in the day amid speculation that he will openly oppose the planned cut of 291.000 men from the army's fighting force. Committee chairman Carl Vinson (D Ga.), said the hard-hitting four-star general will be given an opportunity to “speak his mind. 1 ’ When it was suggested to Vinson that Ridgway is known to oppose the' cut, the congressman remarked: “Well, if he is, he’ll get a chance to say so." Stevens, without specifically mentioning the administration's reserve proposal, urged the committee to approve legislation “which will help assure the highest of active participation by the young men of this country in reserve training activities." He said: “We can no longer afford to defer the achievement of a combat ready reserve force until after it has been mobilized. Our reserves must now be as nearly combat-ready before mobilization as practicable." > I The army secretary said "an alert, capable, versatile and mobile ground army" is needed to guard against small wars, subversion and creeping red expansion. These, he warned, may become “the latter day alternatives to stalemates caused by large-scale capabilities that have become mutually deterring”—in other words to an atomic stalemate between the free and communist worlds. As for the army's part in an integrated defense system, Stevens said demands change wtfU the world situation. He said: "Accordingly, it is difficult to predict what the composition of our total force or our individual service forces should be at any particular future time.” ' Stevens put the army squarely behind the administration policy of planning the nation’s security for a “long pull." but he added that this means a continuing need for keeping a “sizeable" part of the Army overseas as well as creating stronger reserves at home. i The military manpower program personally..approved by President Eisenhower calls for a reduction of 350,000 men in the armed services, including 291,000 in the army, by June 30, 1959, The rest of the cut would be taken by the navy, with air force personnel to be slightly increased.
