On April sth one of the 41 Purina Mills made the 50 Millionth Ton of Purina Chows. It is a glorious achievement and we are mighty proud.

So you profit-minded farmers have cast your vote for far more Purina Chows than .any other feed.

Reveals Prisoners Trained As Agents Revelation Made By Army Psychiatrist WASHINGTON /INS) —A top army psychiatrist has revealed that some American soldiers in Korean prison camps were trained to be red agents on their return to the 17.I 7 . S. In testimony made public today, Maj. W. E. Mayer, who interviewed hundreds of former POW’s told a house appropriations subcommittee that “at least two” inadertently disclosed they had been assigned missions in this country. Mayer said the Ol’s told him that the reds instructed them to make their first communist contact In the U. S. no earlier than seven years after repatriation. Meanwhile, they were to remain as inconspicuous as possible, posing as model citizens with no con- ! nection with communist or communist front groups. The army officer testified “uu-. douhtedly there are people who got by us with equal or more elaborate instructions that were not compromised. “I feel certain that any who were suspected are being followed verycaretnlly. possibly because they ; can lead us to their contacts.”

And the real credit goes to you progressive livestock and poultry feeders. You kept asking for more and more and better and better feeds. You kept Purina Research busy making better Chows—Purina Mills humming to fill your needs — Purina Dealers working hard to keep you supplied. So, we say to all of you from the ~y bottom of our hearts: fc® “Thanks a million for 50 Million Tons of business.”

Sweeping Revision Os Taxes Is Urged Says Tax Reduction Chances Excellent WASHINGTON (INS) — Rep. Wilbur I). Mills (D Ark .) declared today that chances tor future tax reduction “are excellent.” He said there should be a sweeping revision of taxes, including a sharp cut In top Income tax rates. Mills—-A high-hanking member of the house ways ahd means committee. which originates all tax bills—spoke at the annual convention of the U. S. Chamber of Commerce. He recalled an estimate by the congressional joint economic committee staff that the budget surplus for the current fiscal year, ending June 30. will be two billion dollars. Mills said he would not quarrel with the view that such a surplus would justify a tax cut, “all other things being equal.” However, he warned that it would fan inflationary fires if it came at a time when personal and corporation incomes were moving up. He added: "If persistent economic weakness should appear, tax reduction to stimulate private demand would be entirety ap propriate.’’ Hills, one of the leading students of taxation in congress, outlined future tax revision goals which he said would encourage economic stability and growth.

Attorneys Named For Alleged Red Two Leading State Lawyers Appointed INDIANAPOLIS (INS) — Emmanuel Blum, alleged to be Indiana's No. 1 Communist, today had the pauper attorney services of two of Indiana’s leading attorneys. Federal Judge Cale J. Holder appointed Lee M. LeMay, Indiana chief deputy attorney general, and former Indianapolis corporation counsel Palmer K. Ward as Blum’s attorneys after the defendant had pleaded not guilty to a charge he advocated violent overthrow of the government. The accused Red had said: “Becaiiset of the complexities of this case.“ihe usual lawyer might not be able td handle it. I need someone with experience who will understand the constitutional questions involved.” However, LeMay’s boss, attorney general Edwin K. Steers, was unhappy about the appointment of his subordinate, saying: (‘Why, 1 just talked to LeMay Monday afternoon and he never said a thing about that case. We just don’t permit that sort of thing and its puts us tn a bad position in our interpretation of criminal law.” Judge Holder allowed the defense lawyers 30 days in which to file any motions. Blum was arrested March 27 by FBI agents in Chicago after a federal grand jury in Indianapolis indicted him for joining the Communist party knowing it advocates violent overthrow of the government.

UN Announces Agreement On Cease-Fire Formal Statement Os Egypt-Israeli Cease-Fire Given JERUSALEM (INS) — The United Nation* announced formally today the Egyptian-Israeli Gaaa Strip cease-fire agreement and disclosed that the truce will be enforced by UN observation posts and mobile patrols. A communique issued as Dag Hammarskjold continued his peace talks with Israeli leaders observation posts will be set ui> on each side of the Gaza border. When needed, roving patrols will provide an additional safeguard. No time limit was set for the cease-fire; which went into effect 13 days ago on the Israeli-Egyp-tian frontier. Israel was reported so pessimistic over chances of its success that it would agree to a cease-fire of only six months. The other states which the secretary general has visited on his mission. Syria, Lebanon and Jordan, were not mentioned in the communique by the UN trace commission. Thus far, the three Arab countries have not issued a formal acceptance of the cease-fire. Hammarskjold. winding up his mission, met with Israeli Premier David Ben-Gurion and -Foreign Minister Moshe Sharett. Bea-Gur-ion was said to have little hope that his Arab neighbors would respect a cease-fire for any length of time. Call On U. S. BEIRUT, Lebanon (INS) — U.S. diplomats have been called upon to help save Dag Harnmarskjold’s Middle Eastern peace mission from failure in Syria and Lebanon. It was learned today on the highest, authority that as the UN secretary general prepares to leave the Middle East he has not yet received the formal assurances of an unconditional cease-fire he requested from Syria and Lebanon. Lebanon was supposed to have cabled its answer to Hammarskjold Monday. Syria also is holding up its reply. Lebanese sources revealed that U- S. ambassador Donald Heath called on Lebanese foreign minister Selim Lahoud to urge him ‘to take all possible measures to avoid a last-minute failure for the Hammarskjold mission.” The Lebanese said a similar American approach was expected to be made to Syrian leaders. Syria and Lebanon want the UN chief to obtain a promise from Israeli premier David Ben-Gurion that Israel will not start work on its projected Jordan river irrigation project before they give their cease-fire agreements.

Subversive Board May Suspend Cases Ruling By Supreme Court Is Surprise WASHINGTON (INS) —The subversive activities control board may suspend all pending cases today as a result of a surprise supreme court ruling on possible evidence." The court ruled, 6 to 3, Monday that the board must reconsider its 1953 ruling against the Communist Party to determine whether the government used perjured testimony to win the case. Moard chairman Thomas J. Herbert reportedly summoned board members to an emergency session Monday afternoon to consider the results of the decision, which poses a serious threat to the government's drive against the Communists. Officials held it “likely" that the board would announce today what action will be taken. It was learned that six pending cases might be suspended until the questions raised by the court can be decided. In the court's ruling the majority declared that “the purpose of this remand is to make certain the board bases its findings upon untainted evidence." " But Justice Tom C. Clark replied in a minority opinion that the remand was nothing more than a “procedural maneuver" designed to gain time before the party must register as a subversive organization. At issue was the testimony of three ex-communist government witnesses, Harvey Matusow. the ’.ate Paul Crouch and Manning Johnson. Each of them violently attacked in the communist press as “traitors" for appearing on behalf of the government, have also been under fire from other groups who have charged that they were 'professional witnesses.” i Justice department lawyers said they were “astounded” by the majority opinion. Some declared it may prove to be the most important communist victory in the courts of the past decade. Trade in a Good Town — Decatur.

Record Amount Os Vaccine Received INDIANAPOLIS (INS) — The Indiana department of health reported today that Indiana received 301,473 doses of Salk polio vaccine during April, the largest amount ever received in a single month.

Denies Sudan Veers Toward Soviet Bloc Says Communism Has No Appeal To Sudan CAIRO (INS) — The premier of Sudan declared today the young East African republic Is in no danger being seduced by Communist salesmen offering arms, trade and technical assistance. Premier Ismail El Ashary said with a shrug of his massive shoulders it simply was not true that Sudan was veering toward the Soviet bloc or going Communistic. Just before returning to Khartoum after an official two-week visit to Egypt, the 54-year-old leader of the four-months-old Sudanese republic told International News Service Tn ah interview; "Sudan will never go Communist.” With the patience of a schoolmaster, which El Azhary once was. he explained that Communism had little or no appeal In Sudan, where a new census is expected to show a population of 15.000.000 instead of eight to ten million estimated in the past. El Azhary noted: “Communism thrives where there is class distinction. In Sudan we all are of one class. We have very few Communists. We know who they are. They are under control." He said the Russians had sent a technical mission to Khartoum and a Czech mission had come to discuss the sale of arms but that nothing had been decided. "The Russian mission is discussing various forms of technical assistance and trade. But we’ve made no deals. There is nothing political involved. Our policy is strict independence. We intend to keep it that way.” 2*
