Shipment Os Farm Machinery Higher First Increase In Three-Year.Period WASHINGTON (INS) — Preliiniuary government reports show that the shipment of farm machinery and equipment from manufacturers to,dealers increased by übout 15. percent from 1953-54 to 1954-55. The period covered is the industry's fiscal year which ended Oct. 31, 1955. i There was an 18 percent increase in the volume of farm machinery and equipment shipped to dealers for, domestic use, while exports, which normally represent about one-seventh of total shipments, declined about six percent. r The figures are based in voluntary reports of principal producers. A commerce department official said last year's increased sales i eversed a decline that had been in effect for three years. He said a reason for the reversal was that farm mechanization , bad reached the point last year where leplaeement of wornrout equipment became necessary. The official pointed out that the farm machinery industry does not refleck the year-to-year fluctuations in the overall farm picture. ~~ Some types of farms prosper while others are having an “offyear,” and the farmers who buy most of the equipment are the two and a half million who are in “pretty good shape financially.” He said farmers in this category might have from 850,000 to $75,000 worth of equipment. From Nov. 1. 1954 to Det. 51, 1955 dealers ordered about 335,000 tractors. This reversed a downward trend that began in 1952 and reached a low of about 250,000 in 1954. The department said that from 1948 through 1951 tractor shipments remained fairly constant at a rate of about 500.000 a year, leaching a peak of some 560,000 in 1951. when demand for agricultural products was high. The department spokesman said that hopes for good business this year are based on expectations that cotlgress will pass a good farm bill. Industries reporting to the department have indicated that, with accelerated sales efforts, shipments in the 1955-56 fiscal year can be mainntained “at levels comparable to or, slightly above those of last year.” Shipiacntmipf > farmr maehttiery and equipment, other than wheel tractors, showed a slight increase of 11955 over the preceding year. The same pattern shown y in tractor sales was evident for other machinery and tfijulpment—domestic sales increased while exports declined.

Aviation Editors Hit Ike's Program Air Force Program Termed Inadequate WASHINGTON (INS)—Two influential aviation editors have hit out at President Eisenhower's air force program as inadequate to meet U.S. needs in the air power race with Russia. Robert Hots, editor of Aviation Week, and John ,F. Loosbrock, managing editor of Air Force magazine, made the criticism Sunday in editorials advocating a boost in air force funds. Hotz termed the present air program a “fraud.” and added: "This ■airpower budget. .., will mean that American airpower will lose further ground in its technological race with the fast growing Communist air forces.” '' " ' Loosbrock asserted the 16 and one-half billion dollar budget means that the nation will fail to have a modern, combat-ready 137-wing air force by the announced target date of June 30. 195". His editorial continued: "We are squarely in the middle of what this magazine predicted two years ago — an efficient, well-managed, prpsperous period of military insecurity."
