World Food Output Higher

ROME (UPD—Man in the last 12 months produced more food, paid a higher price for it but did not necessarily eat more than he did the previous year. The number of mouths to feed the world over in two years grew nearly as fast as the output of food. Malnutrition and poverty continued in wide areas of the globe and surplus stocks piled up still higher in the U.S. and elsewhere. The housewife in the city paid more for her food and the farmer earned less. International in agricultural commodities decreased. The United States retained its position as a leading food producing country, but the output in Russia increased more sharply. In the Far East and Latin America, per capita production was still below pre-war level. These were some elements of the still unpleasant but far from hopeless picture drawn by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization in its annual report. FAO Director General Binay Ranjan Sen of India in a foreword described it as a chalenge to the world to help underdeveloped na-' tions “build up their own agricultures” and overcome a poverty “scarcely imaginable by the people of more-developed countries." The report showed that world agricultural production, which remained stationary in 1957-58, increased 4 per cent in 1958-59. It noted that the world's population

increases by about 1.6 per cent every year, meaning that the rise in the amount of food available for each person is very small. The report said the increase in agricultural production as a whole was “satisfactory,” but in some areas the output of food was still too low compared to population. It also noted that the increase in production “does not necessarSlangland Seeking Return Os Tractor CHICAGO (UPD —Ethan Stanglund, who farms near Fort Wayne, Ind., asked the U. S. Appeals Court today to make the, 1 government give him back his tractor. ■ Stanglund's lawyer, Clifford E. Simon Jr,, told Judges F. Ryan Duffy, W. Lynn Parkinson and Lathem Castle that the government had no right to seize anything but the crop. William A. Montgomery, lawyer for the U. S. Department of Agriculture, said the procedures for seizing vehicles rather than crops was proper and he cited a case of Dr. J. S. Whiteleather, Minerva, Ohio, from whom an automobile was taken last year as a similar situation.

ily mean that more food is eaten per person, because of the continued accumulation of surplus stocks in some countries, nor that the buying power of people in less developed area has increased.” This meant that the old problem of too much and too little food was still there. Surplus stocks, at high levels but fairly stable for the past few years, started rising again and during the past 12 months were up, about 10 per cent. North America accounted for about 80 per cent of the total stocks. The stocks were not an entirely negative factor. In his foreword to the report, Sen said that “in emergencies” these surplus supplies had provided “invaluable countries. Six Persons Killed As Truck Hits Bus COOPER, Tex.

THE DECATUR Q|ILY DEMOCRAT. DECATUR, INDIANA

Strikes May Close British Auto Plants LONDON (UPD — The prospect of a complete shutdown of the booming British automobile industry within a week today brought despair to Labor Party leaders hopeful df regaining control of the government in the Oct. 8 general elections. The industry was faced with a shutdown following a wildcat strike Tuesday of 2,000 workers in eight oxygen supply plants of the British Oxyben Co. The Laborites foresaw a significant drop in their newly-won high popularity ratings should the automobile factories shut down. The factories will have to close if the strike at BOC continues to cut supplies of oxygen needed for welding. About 100,000 workers would be out of jobs. Standard Motor Co. announced today 4.500 men would be jobless unless the strike ended at once. Another factory reported it could operate only a week on present supplies of oxygen. The campaign of both Conservatives and Laborites today centered around claims of which side deserves credit for clearing the way to the summit. Sir Winston Churchill observed that both sides might be more concerned with the threat of Soviet armament. The 84-year-old former prime minister came out of semi-retire-ment to campaign for reelection to Parliament in the Oct. 8 general elections. He warned Tuesday night in a speech at Wooeford, the suburban constituency that has kept him in Parliament for the past 35 years, that “the Soviet bloc confronts the West with an overwhelming superiority in guns, tanks, aircraft, submarines and sheer weight of manpower.” He called renect western and Soviet disarmament proposals “a step forward” but warned against rushing into agreement that does not provide a workable system of inspection and control.

Khrushchev In Red China To Report Talks TOKYO (UPI) — Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev arrived today in Peiping and told leaders of the Communist world “we must do everything within our power to clear the atmosphere and create conditions for friendship among the peoples.” “Exerting all our efforts we must attain a situation in which universal peace is made secure,” he told an airport gathering which included such notable Communist leaders as Mao Tse-tung of Red China, Ho Chi Minh of North Viet Nam and leaders of the satellites in Europe. Khrushchev arrived to help celebrate Communist China's 10th anniversary Thursday. There was widespread speculation the Peiping regime would use the day to free five imprisoned Americans and perhaps to fire a rocket-mis-sile in a token gesture of China's growing power. Khrushchev, in an address at the airport, told the Communist world leaders he and President Eisenhower had frank talks on “all questions requiring solution for the creation of atmosphere of cooperation and peaceful existence.” He reassured the Communists they had nothing to worry about from the Eisenhower talks. He said they discussed “big problems which must be settled” and that the talks were “profitable.” He said they will improve U.S.Soviet relations and prevent revival of international tensions. Khrushchev's statements were broadcast both by Peiping and Moscow radios. An estimated 10 million homemakers ’in the United States are afflicted with disabilities of varying seriousness.

New Optimism By . Safety Officials INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — Indiana’s September traffic death toll, which earlier had shaped up as likely to be unusuaUy heavy, tapered off and gave safety officials a new optimism today.

It was the second week in a row that the 1959 fataUties had been considerably lower than those of the corresponding week in 1958. State Police Supt. Harold S. Zeis predicted that the September death total would fall below the 125 fatalities recorded in September, 1958, the most deadly month last year. As of midnight Sept. 27, 91 deaths had been recorded.
