program conceded that the House would reverse itself today ’and approve a tightened-up one-year extension of the program. Only two months ago the House voted to kill the program. 1710 new plan would limit subsidy payments to $3,000 per farmer, restrict total payments to 500 million dollars and bar the Agriculture Department from ladling s out any c.f the subsidies during the • dosing «teks of the 1958 congres- . sional election. * It was embodied in a compromise $3,666,543,747 agriculture appropriations bill drafted by a Sen-ale-House conference committee. The measure, on which Senate act»n alsq is pecesSary, contained $298,900,000 less than the administration requested for operation of farm programs in the year ahead Termed Good Fight The House, in passing its version of the bill on May 9, voted 192-187 to terminate the acreage reserve portion after payments were made to farmers participating this year. The Senate voted to restore it. Under the acreage reserve growers of five crops—wheat, corn, tobacco, rice and upland cottonreceive subsidies when they agree not to plant some or all of their allotted acreage. Some farmers this year have received checks for as much as $200,000 under the programRep. Burr Harrison (B-W.Va.), who led the initial fight against the program in the House, was satisfied that “a good deal was accomplished” by the battle. He cited. ' the $3,C00 payment Bttutatian - atty

the requirement that Secretary of Agriculture Ezra T. Benson must make all of the payments by Sept. 15. 1958. -”He_’Jß&i.feft al}le to P° ur money W 4 districts right before the election as he did last year for the purpose of influencing the election results,” Harrison said. Moreover. Harrison said, the House fight against the soil bank succeeded in “establishing it as Benson’s baby. ’ He noted that Benson cancelled a planned trip to South America to stay in Wash* ington and carry on a fight in the Senate for its restoration. Restrict Payment Total In addition to money restrictions, the Senate-House conference committee directed Benson to insist that farmers who receive acreage reserve subsidies “cooperate” in cutting their - over-all plantings. Critics have complained that some farmers while holding “acreage reserve” land out of production, actually increased their total crop plantings by putting into cultivation land that otherwise would have remained idle. The compromise bill would restrict to 325 million dollars 1958 crop payments under the soil bank’s conservation reserve under which farmers make long-range contracts to take land out of production Thus, it would restrict to 825 million dollars the 1958-crop subsidy commitments the Agriculture Department can make under the double barreled $1,200,000,000-a---year soil bank program which Congress launched last year.

(UP) - Nathan Leopold. 52, partner in the Leopold-Loeb-thrill-slaying of little Bobby Franks in 1924, today sought commutation of his 85-year Stateville Prison term. An application was presented to the state Parole and Pardon Board for forwarding to Gov. William G Stratton. Leopold has won the support of a former University of Chicago classmate, who offered him a job as head of a manufacturing firm’s foreign department, and Dr. J.B. Rice, who directed a study of malaria in which Leopold took part. , It wss this participation that prompted Adlai Stevenson to shorten the original 99-year sentence to 85 years. ; Leopold has been a “mod#!” prisoner, attorney Elmer Gerri;, said, and has skill in foreign languages would enable him to hold down the job offered by Arnold Maremont. Maremont is a Chicago industrialist. Leopold and several hundred Other prisoners participated in the World War Tt malaria experiments, at Stateville. His parole plea in 1953 was denied, as were requests for rehearings in 1955 and last December. Gertz contended Leopold has . been sufficiently punished and has been rehabilitated. He said if his client is released he will lead a decent lifeThe only surviving member of Bobby Frank’s immediate family,

Predict Relatively Stable Meat Prices Meat Production Is Slightly Lower ’ WASHINGTON (IP) -r The Agriculture Department predicts that meat prices will be "relatively '•table” through the remainder of this year and much 0f*1958. The department made the forecast Monday in its monthly publication, The Livestock and Meat Situation. It said meat output for 1957 should total about 27,300,000,000 pounds, about 3 percent less than in i q s6. This would mean a supply of about 159 pounds of meat per person compared with an actual consumption of 167 pounds in 1956. The department predicted that the average American,would eat 83 pounds of beef and 63 pounds of pork this year. In 1956, per capita consumption was 85.4 pounds of beef and 67.5 pounds of pork. Lamb and veal supplies also will be a little shorter than last year. This year’s spring pig crop was unchanged from 1956 and producers plan an increase Os only 2 percent in 1957 fall farrowings. Officials said this steadiness in hog output suggested that producers were trying to avoid the too-rapid expansion which was so costly in terms of prices in 195455. Cattle slaughter in the first half of 1957 was about the same as in the first half of 1956. Slaughter during the rest of 1957 likely will be below a year earlier, especially during mid-fall. But even so. the year’s total probably will be large enough to reduce inventory numbers for the second consecutive year. The department said cattle prices particularly may hold up wejl and possibly rise further, while the pig crop intentions seem to assure sustained hog prices through the summer of 1958. May Switch State Buying Authority Highway Purchases May Be Switched INDIANAPOLIS (UP) — Governor Handley may switch purchasing authority from the Indiana State Highway Commission to the State Department of Public Works and Supply, his office said today. Handley may act by executive order as the aftermath of things that happened in his predecessor's administration as well as his own. In the ex-Gov. George Craig administration, a fuel additive known as "Gio” was bought at $8 a gallon compared with similar products offered the highway department at half that figure. And Monday, two highway commissioners cancelled a contract for the purchase of $37,028 worth of weed mowers and agreed to readvertise for bids because the contractor’s bid was the highest of nearly a dozen submitted. Handley commented on the possibility of switching purchasing authority after a closed-door meet* ing of highway commissioners and public works and supply officials. Charles Maddox, a member of the highway commission, revealed the group plans to advertise again i for bids for 72 rotary mowers. The contract for the mowers was let to Kirk Bushhog Co. on a bid of $37,028, but it later was revealed that was the highest of , 10 bids submitted. Maddox said the Bushhog company’s mower was sturdier and better suited for the job required ‘han the product of the other bidders. But he later said the commission had made a "mistake” in not specifying the type, of mower required to do the job. Bids for the other nine firms ranged all the way down to $20,779.

John E. Moss (D-Calif.) today threw some influential weight behind an Air Force move to lift part of the secrecy surrounding the nation’s guided missile program. Moss, chairman of a House subcommittee studying government information policies, said there is "ample justification" for modifying a Pentagon directive limitng dsclosure of data about missile firings. “It is unrealistic and would’appear to do more harm to the Air Force missile program than any contribution to security,” Moss told reporters. “I don’t think security enters into it ” Brig. Gen. Arno H. Luehman, director of the Air Force office of information services, told the subcommittee Monday the Air Force is dissatisfied with the directive. Assistant Defense Secretary Murray Snyder issued the order in a , memorandum to Luehman April 25. It spells out what information may be given out by Vie commander of the Air Force missile test center at Cape Canaveral, Fla. If the commander is asked about a test firing that someone saw, he may confirm that a missile was fired. If there is an accident he may make a “brief statement” about it. But he isn’t allowed to disclose any other information such as the type of missile fired. Luehman said he and other officers have urged Air Force Secretary James H. Douglas to ask Defense Secretary Charles E, Wilson to modify Snyder’s directive. Luehman called for a policy which would allow the Air Force to "give the public an idea how we have progressed” in the missile field He said under present policy the Air Force is being criticized for making little headway on missile development. He said this is a "wrong” impression. I Moss said the Air Force "has an* excellent case for requesting and* expecting a change in that policy." He said he intends to question Snyder about it when the assistant secretary appears before his subcommittee later. The subcommittee wound up its current hearings on Defense Department information policies with testimony of..Luehman and his predecessor in the Air Force post. Brig. Gen. A.J. Kinney. "Tloth Luehman and Kinney said they knew of no cases where documents containing secret information were stolen from the Air Forte. Navy and Army information chiefs gave identical testimony earlier. Chief among the gases used for anesthesia are oxygen, nitrous oxide, helium-oxygen mixtures, ethylene, cyclopropane, carbon dioxide and oxygen-carbon dioxide mixtures. . .
