matic spot Thailand continues to hold out for its neutrality but the difficulties in postponing definite commitments to Japan's new order have grown considerably, especially since the Japanese mediation of the 'Thai-Indo-Chinese dispute. Thailand is appreciative of Tokyo's territorial awards, as far as they went. However, there is lack of jubilation.
Expected Bigger Slice
For one thing, most Thai Nationalists had been sure they would larger slice of Indo- | the full scope | still
be granted a China. For another, of the Tokyo agreement is unclarified here . Only a bare outline of the medi- | ation results have thus far been published in Thailand and formal celebrations have been postponed | until after the signing of the peace treaty which is expected early in April. Japan's totalitarian technique of | enforced mediation was a revelation to the Thais as well as the French. While it has heightened respect for Japan's determination, it has also heightened apprehension The since my ago is the

‘Study Conditions’
Most of them say they are here! on business or to “study condi-| tions.” The authorities are power-| less to stem the influx | Many of these arrivals seem to have unlimited expense accounts.

COST-PLUS PLAN ON CROPS URGED
It Works in in Defense Plants, | Why Not on Farms? Rep. Landis Asks.
Times Special
WASHINGTON, March 28—A| plea to put agriculture on a “cost- | plus” basis, just as is being done | with defense industry, was made to- | day by Rep. Gerald W. Landis R. |
“Agriculture holds a valuable !place in our national defense program,” Rep. Landis declared. | “Defense work hag been put on | a cost-plus basis, Why not agri- | culture? | “The farm problem is a price problem, It is not only a price] relationship problem, but one that | includes the cost of production. The way to attack the farm prob- | lem is to have a two-price system | with a legal floor under domestic | farm prices and sell our surpluses | at world prices. | “Since the Government set farm | prices in 1918, what is wrong in set. ting a minimum price now, at not | less than parity for that part re{quired for domestic consumption {and take the world's price for rie surplus. “This would give our farmers 81 | | cents for 90 per cent of their corn | crop and 52 cents for the present | world price for the 10 per cent not | | needed for domestic use. Under this | | system, we could eliminate most of |
| payrollers on the AAA”
