Senate Passes Farm Bill To Cut Surpluses WASHINGTON (UPl>—The Senate Tuesday passed and sent to the White House a farm bill designed to cut farm surpluses with stiff programs to hold down wheat and feed grain production. The 52-41 vole was a victory for Senate Democratic leaders and President Kennedy. All 52 votes for the bill came from Democrats, and only seven Democrats joined Republicans in opposing the bill. The measure would offer price supports and land rental payments to farmers who voluntarily reduce acreage of 1963 wheat and feed grain crops. Part of the price support would be paid in cash. After 1963, the bill combines stiffer wheat acreage controls with a new two-price method of Supporting wheat prices. It would provide a support price of $2 a bushel for wheat moving into domestic and export markets as good. A small part of the controlled crop would be sold at lower prices for animal feed. The 1964 feed grain program would cut price support floors sharply below present levels, but would not attempt to limit production. Asks Aid To Battle Rising Traffic Toll INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—Howard Pyle, president of the National Safety Council Tuesday called on business and industry to help fight public apathy over the skyrocketing rate of traffic fatalities. Pyle spoke at a meeting of the Governor’s Traffic Safety Conference and asked the 40 business and civic leaders attending to join the battle to cut the mounting toll. He noted that in Indiana, the rate is running about 18 per cent ahead of last year. “I sit at my desk in Chicago and see the many inadequacies that exist in traffic enforcement in Indiana and Indianapolis—and many other states—and know that something must be done and done now,” the former Arizona goveri nor said. He apked the businessmen to “help arouse the public to the many needs in virtually every segment of this tragic problem.” Earlier, State Police Supt. John Barton addressed the meeting and said it was necessary to “make people afraid to die” in order to shake them out of their apathy. Pyle predicted that the national traffic death toll will exceed 40,000 this year for the first time. He proposed full support of Indiana safety agencies for an eightpoint program for better traffic law enforcement. The points: —An increase in state police personnel —Periodic inspection of all vehicles. —Stricter and more comprehensive examination and re-exam-ination of all drivers. —Adoption of model rules of procedure for all traffic courts. —Legislation to provide for a state administration office of courts. —A study of existing traffic laws to determine if they are in conformity with the Uniform Vehicle Code. —Legislation to enable cities to adopt a Model Traffic Ordinance long recognized nationally as embodying the best in regulatory standards. —Legislation to provide for immediate reporting of motor vehicle accidents as recommended by the Uniform Vehicle Code.

Two- Price System In Wheat Sections

WASHINGTON <UPI( — The wheat sections of the Kennedy administration’s new farm. biU include a new two-pride system, effective in 1964, designed to keep wheat output permanently in line with market needs. At present, farm law requires the Agriculture Department to support wheat -prices between 75 and 90 per eent of the “fair earning power” parity level if farmers accept production controls. But planting allotments under the old farm control law could not be cut below 55 million acres. Farm productivity has improved so much in recent years that 55 million acres will generally produce more wheat than is needed, building up government surplus stocks. The new plan allows wheat allotments to be cut enough to hold production temporarily below actual needs. Later, allotments would be set at the actual amount needed to supply domestic and export maifcets. The bill sets a production floor in bushels instead of acreage—a minimum national quota of one billion bushels, which is less than current demand. In actual operation, the annual bushel quotas would be translated back into acreage allotments for individual farms. Each farm’s wheat quota would be whatever amount the farmer could grow on his acreage allotment. Equally important in the plan, however, is a new price support system which limits the volume the government will support at relatively high prices. Here’s how it works: Farmer Jones, who had an acreage allotment of 55 acres under the old law, would get an allotment of about 47 acres for 1964. In addition, he would be given a “certificate wheat” quota of about 1,000 bushels. This classifies 1,000 bushels of his crop as eligible for domestic food and export sales. Any other wheat grown on the 47 acres would be “non-certificate wheat.” The 1,000 bushels would be protected by a relatively high support price, probably about $2 a bushel in 1964. The grower would get about $1.30 of his return from selling the wheat or putting it under a government price support loan. The rest of his return would come from selling 1,000 marketing certificates issued tq him Sy * the government. These certificates must be sold by the farmer with his wheat. They must be purchased, eventually, by flour millers and exporters who use the wheat. The farmer in this example actually would probably produce about 1,175 bushels of wheat on his assumed 47-acre allotment in 1964. The 175 bushels not covered by marketing certificates would sell for feed or other uses at the market or price support level of about $1.30 per bushel. The bill also provides, for 1964 and 1965 only, “diversion payments” to farmers for the land forced out of wheat by the new program. In this example, a grower whose 55 - acre allotment was trinimed to 47 actes would be eligible for diversion payments on 8 acres. No rates have been set for these payments. Agriculture Department officials tentatively plan to set a total 1964 wheat allotment of 47 million to 48 million acres, based on a national production quota of 1.1 billion bushels. This would be about 125 million bushels below estimated actual needs, allowing that much reduction in surplus stocks. Marketing certificates would be issued on about 925 million bushels. The new law provides that price support on “certificate

wheat" can range between 65 and 90 per cent of parity. Support on non-certiflcate wheat can go as low as the world market price. Total farm income from wheat under the law could be raised or lowered by adjusting the number of certificates issued. The law requires use of certificates for all wheat going into domestic human food, but makes use of certificates on export wheat optional with the secretary of agriculture. Other key features of the new wheat program: —Like other farm control plans, actual operation of this one would be subject to approval by a twothirds margin of growers voting in a referendum. If the proposition fails to carry, price supports would drop to 50 per cent of parity—Wheat producers with a planting average of 15 acres or less could decide whether to take an acreage cut and participate in the program, or continue planting their historic average without price supports. All farmers would have allotments and none could exceed them without facing cash penalties. The penalty exemption allowing any farmer, regardless of the size of his allotment, to grow up to 15 acres without fines is repealed in the new bill. For the 1963 wheat crop, farmers have already approved by referendum a control program based on the national acreage allotment of 55 million acres. Price support loans for farmers who comply with allotments will be made at a national average of $1.82 per bushel. The new bill grafts onto this program—for 1963 only—an offer of two kinds of payments to any growers who voluntarily cut plantings 20 to 50 per cent below their allotments. On acreage taken out of production, would get a rental payment based on half the expected earnings from the acreage at the $1.82 support rate. On acreage remaining in production, the cooperating farmer’s effective support price would be lifted to the 1962-crop level of $2.00 per bushel. In addition to the 1963 support loan of $1.82, the grower would get a government payment-in-kind certificate worth 18 cents per bushel. The, certificate could be exchanged for government surplus wheat, turned in to the government for cash, or sold. The 1963 plan provides a penalty for farmers who sign up to reduce acreage a fixed amount and then fail to comply with the contracts. A farmer reneging on his contract would lose his rights to price support. Small - scale wheat producers could get into the voluntary diversion program by retiring from 20 per cent of their average 195961 acreage uqto 10 acres. Farmers who divert land under the 1963 program could use the acreage to produce non - surplus crops such as safflower: Land retirement payments for the acreage would be made at reduced fates or eliminated completely, depending on which crop a farmer elects to plant.

Restore Tense Peace In Troubled Suburb' ST. LOUIS (UPD — A tense peace was restored today in the troubled Negro suburb of Kinloch following more arrests and arsonblamed fires during the night that climaxed a wave of violence. St. Louis County police and authorities from other suburbs patrolled the streets to enforce an emergency curfew imposed when a shotgun blast wounded four persons during an angry demonstration at city hall Tuesday. “Things are cal min g down now, M ayor Clarence Lee said. “They appear to be settling down. But Lee indicated he would accept Gov. John Daltons offer of state reinforcements if protests against the shooting of a 19-year-old Negro by a Kinloch policeman got out of hand again. “I always know how I can get in touch with Dalton, the mayor said. Police said three fires broke out in vacant houses Tuesday night, destroying one of the structures. Seven false alarms were turned in and four persons were arrested for violating the 10 p.m. curfew on city streets. Two of the three white policemen wounded in the early morning protest by more than 300 Negroes remained in the county hospital. Hugh Hodges, 26, was in serious condition, and Kenneth Armstead, 29, was in satisfactory condition. The other county officer, William Rushing, 33. and a Negro bystander, Anthony Williams, 32, were treated and released shortly after the shot was fired from an apartment window in a slum clearance project. The throng, which chanted, “We want Mason,” was dispersed by about 85 heavily armed police, but other groups formed later in the day outside the city hall. They demanded Israel Mason, 74, a Negro policeman, who resigned from the force following the fatal shooting Sunday of Donnel Fortch. The youth resisted arrest on charges stemming from a drag race, and was killed when Mason’s .38-caliber revolver discharged as they struggled., Lee said that police and county officials w ere investigating the shooting and would present information to the grand jury. score 56%.

More than 200 persons were feared dead or missing. The Spanish news agency CIFRA said an unofficial count indicated that 233 persons were dead or missing. CIFRA said 90 bodies had been recovered, 72 of them not identified. CIFRA said the number of injured was at least 100. Generalissimo Francisco Franco, the chief of state, ordered Capt. Gen- Agustin Munoz Grandes, the country’s vice president, and three cabinet members to Barcelona to direct rescue operations. Confusion and general havoc reigned throughout the rich Barcelona Province due mainly to lack of communications. Storms that triggered the floods disrupted communications. The floods blocked highways and roads, destroyed tel eph one poles and washed away bridges. Five factories were reported to have been destroyed in the textile center of Sabadell. The storm which hit the province Tuesday night and early this morning was the first rain in the area following a drought of several months. Suspended Terms - Given Embezzlers INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — William R. Skaggs, 27, Carmel, was sentenced to a two-year suspended prison term Tuesday by federal Judge S. Hugh Dillin here for embezzling $4,500 from a credit union. , Skaggs admitted taking the money while serving as treasurer of a federal credit union in Indianapolis between February, 1961 and June, 1962. He told arresting FBI agents he used the money to live beyond his means. Another federal judge granted similar leniency to another man charged with bank embezzlement. Brian E. Harting, 27, Oaklandon, received a two- year suspended term from Judge William E. Steckler on his plea of guilty to a charge of making a SSOO false entry at the East Side branch of the American Fletcher National Bank & Trust Co. here last November. The court was told the money was paid back the day after the discrepancy was discovered, also that bank officials had been planning to promote Harting.

Erroneous Report Given On Accident An accident was erronously reported in the Daily Democrat last week. A horse pulling a buggy operated by Levi. C. Christen, route 2, Berne, ran into a car driven by Sylvester Sell, route 2, Berne, instead of the car running into the horse as was reported. The animal suffered a cut leg. Township Trustee Feeds Dogs, Chickens Anyone who thinks that the township trustee leads a dog's life for chicken feed is right this week, in Washington township! About three or four weeks ago Omer V. (Rasty) Peterson was taken to the hospital, and has been there most of the time since. Soon his neighbors complained to the sheriff's department about his dogs roaming at large. The sheriff investigated, but naturally didn’t want to kill a man’s dogs while he was hospitalized. Ha contacted Bob Gay, township trustee, who has taken on the additional task of feeding Peterson’s dogs and chickens at his personal expense, while the man is hospitalized.
