The Holts previously had spoken in the same fashion. It may be Secretary of State Acneson finally is beginng to understand that the American people want tough ‘action, action which will free Mr. Oatis. For, a half hour after the Senate voted 81 to 0 to pass ‘the stop-trade resolution, Mr. Acheson told the new Czech Communist ambassador he wanted a “thorough discussion” ‘with him on the Oatis case immediately aftet the diplomat ‘presents his credentials to President Truman. This “thorough discussion” should consist of no more than four words: “Release Oatis, or else . . .” 2 ® =» ” # . * MR. ACHESON was reported to have been cool and abrupt in his two-minute meeting with the latest Communist siooge to come to this country. But Vladimir Prochazka would have had a much deeper impression of Mr. Acheson's earnestuess about the Oatis case if he had been told simply: “I'll see you when Oatis is free. Not before.” But no, the State Department keeps mumbling in its protocol. And Mr. Oatis is still in prison. “For all he knows,” as Sen. O'Conor of Maryland said, “the people of this country have abandoned and forgotten him.” Mr. Prochazka will see the President at noon Tuesday. He'll show up in his pressed pants to present his signed-and-sealed papers. ~ » . ~ o ~ IF THE Czech is to get “dressed down’ for what his government has done to Mr. Oatis, Tuesday noon is the time for it. And if Mr. Truman should use his best pokertable language, it would be no more than appropriate. vonaBut the Czech Communists don't buckle under rough "words. ZF The only chance to liberate Mr. Oatis is ty swinging a big club. Congress, by almost unanimous vote, has recommended that club—cut off trade, at once. ? Thé President and the State Department can do no less than use it.

Where: We're Licked ~

O WE went through another day on edge and waititig breathlessly for the next move from the Communist camp. The Korean truce talks—were they off for good, or only temporarily? First impressions Thursday were that the negotiations were completely finished. Followed a Peiping broadcast that they were off for the day only. Then, hours later, the Red commanders said the talks were suspended indefinitely. And, for a fourth groggy round, we were told there'd be only a recess, providing the Allies accept the charge they tried to kill some Red negotiators. Meanwhile the State and Defense Departments were holding almost continuous conferences studying reports and trying to guess what the Reds would do next. And President Truman issued a statement: “Until this is clarified, we cannot appraise the events...” ~ » » nm ~ ” NO ONE knows for sure even now whether the Russians mean to have peace in Korea, or an expanded war there-—or even the big, all-out war. The same uncertainty on our side has existed ever since Russia's Malik first proposed an armistice two months ago. . It's getting to be all too wearily familiar. It isn't only in Korea, of course. We thought we had the Japanese peace-signing parley all sewed up. But already the Russians have us on the defensive. We're waiting all on edge about that—to see whether they mean to wreck the conference. They had us waiting through 10 weeks of the Deputy Foreign Ministers’ Conference in Paris last spring wondering what the Russians were striving for. They got what they wanted—a delay in Western rearmament while we fidgeted. In Europe today we're still rolling with the punches of every Soviet affront, never quite certain whether they're bluffing or meaning business. n r » n - - IN IRAN, we're waiting to see whether they'll move into the vacuum created by the oil crisis. Isn't there any way we can get Russia on the defensive, for a change? Any way to raise a sweat on the men in the Kremlin, instead of Washington and the American public? Wa ? A couple of months ago President Truman set up a high-sounding psychological strategy board to “plan, co-ordinate and supervise” psychological and political warfare agaist international communism. We haven't heard anything of it since.

Radio simply reports when officials speak, it said, and that's why it happened to be all loaded up with Thursday's doings.

IRAN . .. By Ludwell Denny Peace Depends On the Big IF

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25 -— There is still some hope that the British-Iranian oil dispute may be settled peacefully, despite collapse of negotiations and Britain's announcement that she will protect her technicians at Abadan refinery with force if necessary.

If the Tehran government can prevent pub- -

lie violence, ways and means probably will be found to reopen negotiations either directly or Indirectly, That, ‘of course, is a big “IF.” Influential Individuals in. the goverypsesyAssnfiroountry ‘are promise: But even more pow-, erful forces are determined to prevent a settle-

mént,

Divide Forces

THE BASIS of hope—however small—is the fact that those destructive’ forces are divided. One is the fanatical anti-foreign movement. The other is the Soviet plot, operating through

; Soviet officials on one level and through the

local Tudeh rank-and-file, Nationalistie religious fanatics are more numerous and dangerous in the emotional and explosive sense, than the Reds who have no large convinced following. But the Reds are a greater menace because they know what they want, and can organize a revolution which will not simply blow off steam in sporadic street demonstrations. Periodically the Reds have been able to use the religious fanatics. If they can continue to do so, it is only a question of time until Stalin will have a puppet regime with dictatorial power in Tehran. > During the past fortnight, however, there have been signs that the extreme Nationalists object to being used as Stalin stooges. At least they are less willing to walk into the Red trap. But, being hysterical, they may yet fall into it anyway.

Red Objectives

THE TEST will come both in Abadan and Tehran. At the refinery there doubtless will be hostile Abadan demonstrations. The Red objective will be to endanger the lives of the British techniclans there to make the British use defensive forces. What the mobs do will depend on the Nationalist leaders, and also on the lovalty of Iranian police and troops in enforcing order In Tehran the main test will be whether the government accepts the Soviet order of Russian technicians to replace the British, If the government is that crazy, there is no hope. It is unlikely that the Russians could operate the refingry, and certainly they lack the tankers to mark) the product. Anyway, the price of Soviet “aid” iz slavery.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25—A few days back: I made some snide remarks about perfumed glue for pasting down, female ears that flap. Two dollars a. bottle. Just apply the glue to the back of the ear, wrap a scarf around the head

for an hour, and the ear is stuck solidly to the skull, I thought this was funny, dolt that I am. Ladies all over with floppy ears are taking it seriously, They're writing for the intimate details. I should think plain, nonperfumed, 15cent glue should work as well, but if these unfortunate females want the riginal, de luxe treatment, they can find it advertised in any one of the fancy, 50-cent fashion magazines. May their ears wave in the breeze no longer. For folks with normal ears I can commend a few other new products about to go on the market, including paper handkerchiefs that have been “sun-purified by ultraviolet rays.” These ought to turn a summer cold into a pleasure. The development that pleases me though, is homogenized dog food. I swear it, Homogenized, like milk. I don't know how the nation’s pups will take this. The manufacturer, who is the biggest food processor in America, is more interested in their masters, Seems that he has sold his dog meal by the ton these

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25— With varely a quibble, Congress nas renewed the sugar law which sees Uncle Sam hand out as much as $954,000 a year in subsidies to a single company for growing sugar. On the 1948-49 sugar cane crop—the latest on which com plete data is available—the government made payments of more than $100,000 to 39 sugar growing companies and individuals on the mainland and in the territories. Largest recipient was the Hawalian Commercial & Sugar Co., Ltd., which received $954, - 849. Next was Antonio Rogi Suers in Puerto Rico with $892,770 from the. government.

» . - ONLY three mainland growers were in the group receiving more than $100,000: The United States Sugar Corp. in Florida, and the South Coast Corp. and Southdown Sugars, Inc, in Louisiana.

(D. Ark.) who called these huge payments to the attention of the Senate, said he was aware of the futility of raising ‘‘one amell ignorant against the sugar bill he sald, he wanted to hav ~ that it wasn't & “little bill” as

I MUST report, finally, one wonder of the new age that doesn't seem to be going over so well: Concentrated milk.

Only the ladies discovered that it cost the same as whole milk and that they ha@he nuisance of mixing it with cold water. If the water happened to taste like chlorine, so did their milk.

In return, they again showed their appreciae tion the other day by sending us a new ambase sador. His name is Dr. Hippolito Jesus Paz. He is such an admirer of our way of life and political morals that when the Argentine gove ernment belatedly declared war on Hitler during the final days of the conflict, Dr. Paz ordered the Argentine flags in his hometown lowered to. half staff. Finally, at Thursday's mass meeting at which the Perons persuaded the Perons to stay in the dictatorship dodge, the Perons had the whole street plastered with violent anti. American slogans and placards. You can see how successful our diplomacy {s down that way.

‘A Eine Organization’ MR. EDITOR: Your recent article about.the Good Will Industries and about all the good work they are doing for our handicapped is only half the story, and work that I wish could be seen by all the people of our city. Not too long ago I visited the Good Will plant. I cried as I saw twisted and crippled bodies doing work that would to us seem impossible. I just couldn't believe what I saw, They are crippled and blind, yet happy. They had smiles on their, faces. I want'te thamk the Good Will ‘Industries for" giving employment to my husband. I want ' to praise the organization fof the- patience and understanding - it displays towards its handicapped workers. I'm gratified and deeply indebted to the Industry for rescuing my husband from the hands of despair, and I insist, dear editor, that'#1l those able should visit this wonderful institution. They would be well repaid in many ways. —Mrs. Julia Melton, City.

‘Stray Cats and Dogs’ MR. EDITOR: As a regular reader of The Indianapolis Times, I should like to call your. attention to the deplorable situation concerning stray cats and dogs. - Living in the suburbs, we get every city an= imal that is discarded. This week it was two cats. Trying to do what's right, we call the SPCA. What do we find? Closed. The Humane Society will not call for a stray animal outside the city, and other plates have no facilities. What are people to do? I've found that the dog pound refuses to take the animals unless brought to them. I feel that the county should have a society to take care of such unfortunate animals. There is one more matter that puzzles me, When I called, why was the SPCA closed? Isn't that organization run on state funds? —Mrs. K. Roney, R. R. 11, Box 253,

voice" But,

It previously had been described by Senate Majority Leader Ernest McFarland (D. Ariz.) * Apparently, Sen. Fulbright was right in describing his opposition as futile. The Senate overrode him 72-to-4 and sent the measure to the White House. It already bag passed the House, = = ACTION on the bil was remarkable in that {it was passed more than a year before the present law expires, and Congress has been notoriously slow on most bills this year. The new bill extends the law which doesn’t expire until ec, 31, 1952, for another four years, until Dec. 31, 1956. Supporters said it was necessary to act now so the sugar growers would be able to plan in advance. Sen. Fulbright pointed out that at least one sugar lobbyist, Ernest W. Green of the Hawaiian Sugar Planters Ass'n, makes three times as much as a U.8. Senator — $45,000 a year. He said he could well understand such payments to 18bbyists when he saw the size of the govern-

ment sugar payments, particu-

larly to. Hawaiian companies, :

The sugar payments are only one part of a complete network of protection and subsidy that Congress has built up ‘around domestic sugar growers, The main protection is a quota system which allows only so much foreign sugar to come in, thus making it impossible for cheap foreign sugar — when foreign sugar is cheap—to flood the domestic market. s » ” THE sugar payments themselves were set up back in 1937 primarily as an enforcement measure to get the producers to limit their crops to government goals and to pay minimum wages. But all crop controls on sugar have been off since 1942, The payments have been continued, however, The government pays 80 cents ‘per 100 pounds to growers who produce ‘up to 350 tons, of raw sugar annually. The payment rate then graduates downward to a minimum of 30 cents per 100 pounds for the growers who produce more than 30,000° tons. The Ha-

" waiian Commercial & Sugar

Co. Ltd. last year produced about 140,000 tons. 3

payments to domestic proe ducers come from a 3% cent per pound tax levied at the refinery level on all sugar, both domestic and imported. This tax has netted an average of $16 million annually for the treasury—that much more being taken in than was paid out ~ o »

SUPPORTERS i on sugar payment system conbend that the tax is paid by the industry. But Sen. Fulbright said that argument was ridiculous—that it was passed on to consumers. The proponents pointed out that the sugar system kept domestic prices well below world prices all during the past year. ' Sugar prices, now 10 cents a pound at retail, have gone up only about 85 per cent since 1933 as compared with 143 per cent for all foods. The sugay protection system guar-

‘antees stable prices for U. S.

consumers, say the supporters. But Sen. Fulbright could see no good in the program at all. “I am almost ashamed,” he said, “of all the fuss which has

been raised over a few bad
