Benson says, “leaving aside production costs, gross farm income during the first six months of this year ran at the rate of S3B billion—an allti m e record.” Unfortunately, farmers can’t just set aside production costs. They must pay them. These costs also stand at all-time record highs. Farmers are obtaining a good deal less than record net incomes, despite rosy predictions. The preliminary net income prediction is $13.6 billion, as compared with $15.6 billion in 1952 and $16.3 billion in 1951. And in those years a dollar bought far more than it does today. Also, floods in this area on the Wabash and St. Mary’s rivers hurt many individual farmers seriously. Credit to farmers in this area is at an all-time high, matched only by a few months in the early 1930’5, While certain areas of the southwest are showing additional profits, our own county will not show such a picture.

Notre Dame university, which lists many illustrous alumni from the Decatur area, is now planning to build a half-million dollar maintenance center and warehouse on the campus. It is the first part of a $66,600,000 development program. o o— Sen. Homer E. Capehart, Indiana Republican, deserves praise for the fine work he has done on the Senate committee on banking and currency in investigating frauds in the Federal Housing Administration that cheated small home owners and swindled the government out of $11,00,000. Because of the businesslike investigationby Sen. Capehan, the FBI was able to take over, and to date more than 800 persons and firms have been convicted, and returned to the government nearly $7,500,000. While we differ with Sen. Capehart on many important fundamental issues, we feel that in this instance he has done a commendable job which he started in 1954. ——<| o—i — A bitter battle is being waged in Congress over the establishment of a national park in the Dunes area on Southern Lake Michigan. Most of the battle has been quite obscure, however. Certainly a portion of the Dunes should be maintained for the people of Indiana and Illinois to enjoy in perpetuity. On the other hand, it would be sheer folly to maintain more than is necessary and exclude businesses which will need the area for expansion with the completion of the St. Lawrence seaway. By converting private land that could develop fine factories and full employment, we would not only hurt employment, but also the state tax structure, which is based on the value of private property. The entire deal looks a little fishy, with Illinois senators, who are interested in Illinois development, pushing the park, and Indiana Senators opposing or keeping quiet on the question. We will try to find out more about the problem from state and federal officials.

Quemoy Islands Are Shelled By Red Artillery Nationalist China Reports Activity By Chinese Reds TAIPEI. Formosa (UPD— Chinese Communist artillery shelled the offshore Quemoy Islands during the night and Red fishing fleets disappeared mysteriously from the area early today. Some Nationalist military authorities speculated the two moves might be preliminary to an invasion attempt. A Communist naval flotilla appeared early today near the Matsu offshore islands but withdrew. The Nationalist Defense Ministry reported Nationalist warships and shore artillery sank a Red Chinese gunboat in the same area Sunday. Official sources in Taipei said the Communists were moving troops, tanks and anti - aircraft artillery into positions opposite Quemoy. The Reds already have built up jet bomber and fighter mosa. The mysterious absence of Communist fishing boats in the narrow channel separating the Communist mainland from the Nationalist held off-shore island was reported by the government’s official military information service. Military sou fee s speculated Communist authorities ordered the boats to remain in port to clear the sea lanes for a Communist thrust at the Nationalist islands. They said the move also may have been made to prevent leakage of military information from the mainland to Quemoy. Dr. John Spaulding Moves Dental Office Dr. John B. Spaulding D. D.

Warns Nuclear War To Mean End Os Humanity

Editors Note: United Press International Vice President and Associate* General Manager Kingsbury Smith, is on a fact-finding tour of Europe. By KINGSBURY SMITH United Press International MINFFORDD, Wales (UP!)— Failure of Russia and the West to agree on a summit meeting coupled with the H-bomb’s threat to survival of the human race makes it imperative today to educate mankind to renounce war as world suicide. This belief was expressed by Lord Bertrand Russell, world famed philosopher, in an exclusive interview in his hillside Welsh home overlooking the Irish Sea. “The people of the world must be made to realize,” he said, “that a nuclear world war will mean an end to the human race. That must be drummed into their heads. “The optimists say that if a major war breaks out in the near future, a few people may survive in Patagonia. Perhaps, but the long-range radioactive effects of a nuclear conflict would probably make the world uninhabitable for even the few who might survive in Patagonia, It is virtually certain that with the way new weapons are being developed, war within a few years from now would mean the end of mankind.” Says Leaders Mislead The British nobleman who was sentenced to six months’ imprisonment in World War I for his pacifist views said it was dangerously misleading for Soviet and Western leaders to give people the impression their respective sides would survive an atomic war. “The Russian and Chinese leaders talk about the Communist system surviving a nuclear war, and I noted that Mr. Dulles recently said the West would probably win a ‘hot’ war, though it seems to be losing the cold one. Both sides are misleading the people with such talk. “The devastation and long-range-effects of a nuclear world war would destroy civilization.” Lord Russell warned it would be a grave mistake to think that any major war among the great powers could be confined to conventional weapons, even if the production and use of nuclear ones Had been previously prohibited and stopped by international agreement. Renounce AU War “It should be made clear to the people,” he added, “that no matter what international agreements might be signed to abolish nuclear —weapons, a major war among the great powers would develop into a nuclear conflict. The moment one side was threatened with defeat, it would start producingnuclar weapons in. the hope of saving itself. “That is one of the reasons why mankind must renounce war just as the sane individual in a civilized society has renounced private murder.” The noted “free-thinker,” who has been a controversial figure for more than half a century, said he doubted the present Soviet leadership would deliberately precipitate a nuclear conflict with the West, but he recognized the danger that either side might blunder into a world war by miscalculation. ' “While the balance of military power remains what it is, and there are no new political circumstances, I doubt that the Soviet Union will inaugurate a nuclear war with the West,” he said. Not Sure About U.S. “I am not, however, sure that there are no circumstances in which the United States would not do so. If the Soviet Union precipitated an ordinary, or conventional, war somewhere and American forces became involved, they might resort to the use of nuclear weapons if they were in danger of being defeated.” Askd what the common people could do to persuade the big powers to conclude and implement an effective international agreement to outlaw and control nuclear weapons, Lord Russell replied: “I receive many letters from people in all parts of the world asking me what they, as individuals, can do to help prevent war. I have a stock answer for British correspondents. I tell them to write to their MP’s (members of Parliament) and to organize against war with their friends and neighbors. Os course, these things cannot be done by the people behind the Iron Curtain. What they can do, God alone knows. “However, the effect of public opinion should not be underestimated. Public opinion in this country led the British government to make important concessions at the Congress of Vienna in order to secure an agreement to abolish the slave trade.” Better To Submit The writer recalled that Lord Russell had once been quoted as saying he would prefer American capitalism to Russian Communism, but that if it was a choice between Communism and nuclear war, he would submit to the former. I asked if everybody felt that way and the West was not prepared to fight, if necessary, how did he think it would be possible to prevent Communist dom-

ination of the world. “I never said, nor meant to imply, that Communism should be the only choice,” he replied. “I would say to the Communists that they should submit to capitalism if that was the only alternative to nuclear war. What I meant was that if. which God forbid, a situation should develop in which there remained no choice but submission or nuclear war, then I would say to either side submission is better because there would still be human beings left to resume, ats ome time in the future, human progress.” The spry, wiry humanist, who looks and acts at least 20 years younger than his 86 years, doesn’t like to be considered an extremist. Opposes Communism “I am not a fanatic,” he said. “I am simply a person who rather likes the human race and would be sorry to see it die out." A consistent opponent of Communism in both theory and practice since his visit to Russia in 1920, Lord Russell was asked by this correspondent what he would say to Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev about the Communist, system if he met him. “If I personally, were to meet Khrushchev and lie were to say to me that he was confident Communism would triumph in the world one day, I would reply that I did not know whether that was going to be so or not, but that I did know there are aspects of the present Communist system which are certainly not conducive to human progress. I would cite the lack of freedom for the individual to think for himself; the lack of freedom of expression that is so necessary to the advancement of art and philosophy. I would say that what the world needs today is mental liberty, and freedom from fear of war.” COURT NEWS Marirage Applications Sonya Gay Stuckey. 22, Decatur, and Carl William Faurote, 29, Decatur. < Janfce Rifth Whited, 19, St. Mary’s, 0., and James V.
