He is young, 40, with a distinguished war. record, and comes from a Southern farm state." One of Francis Cherry's origina lope supporters wise-cracked thi; morning: "I suppose if he's named Secretary of Agriculture Sid will appoint Henry Woods governor." Personally I am confused. McMath isn't beaten for governor yet. And Stevenson hasn't, at least at this writing, been elected president. To make it plain and simple, our duty on August 12 is to nominate a man for governor who will devote himself exclusively to the job of managing Arkansas' 1,909,511 citizens and her 53,104 square miles of domain a major job in itself.

I figure Steel Settlement to Cost Every Family $102 By WILLIAM O. VARN WASHINGTON -Price Stnbll iwr Kills Arnall predicts the new price boost will, cost the nv- enige American family about $102 a year in higher prices. said in a television (NBC) interview that the $5.20 per ton price boost he signed reluctantly yesterday would touch off a new of inflation. He made it clear the steel in- rveiise was not his own choice, but ordered by acting Defense Mobiluer John H. Steelmnn.

Arnall said last night it was "a very, very bitter pill for me." Earlier in the day prico control officials had said the cost of living, already at a record is almost certain to climb even higher be- cnusc ot "inevitable increases" in some major industries. A top official said the higher ceilings' probably will force the government to drop its hold- the-line price policy and center forts on keeping apparently inevi Price Support Program Is Discussed Operating details of the 11)52 Price Support program for cotton are being discussed by County; Committeemen and office employees of the Production and Marketing Administration from 11 counties in a two-day meeting here this week.

Campaigns Certain to Be Costliest By EDWIN B. HAAKINS'oN WASHINGTON thing appeared certain today about the national political races this year: the campaigns will be the costliest and best financed of any ever staged in the United States. Total expenses probably will run well into the millions of dollars, because (1) the price of campaigning, like everything else, has soared, and (2) the campaigns themselves will be elaborate. Chairmen of both the Republican and Democratic National Committees already have made it clear they are out to of costs. Technically, federal laws fix a top limit of three million dollars upon the spending of a major political party.

But the laws are full of loopholes. For example, there is no limit upon the number of national committees that may support a presidential candidate. And each such committee is entitled to collect and spend a lull three million. Arthur E. Summerfield, new Many Arkansas Points Get Rain By The Associated Press Those widely scattered thunder showers came through as promised yesterday to bring cooler temperatures to most Arkansas breaking a week-long period of 100-degree heat.

The highest temperature reporl ed in Arkansas yesterday was 99 'Arkadelphia. The low was recordec at Little Rtck, a cool 83. Rain fell in large amounts terday in four Arkansas cities and chairman of the Republican National Committee, parried questions of reporters here yesterday on how much Republicans would spend, or where paying new cam' paign staff official's. Summerfield explained that his campaign strategy, in behalf of presidential nominee Dwight D. Eisenhower and other Republican candidates, is to first shape a winning plan and and then figure the costs.

Earlier Summerfield listed plans for not one but two special campaign trains; speeches in all parts of the nation by Eisenhower, vice presidential candidate Sen. Rich- and pays a small fee. At any time during a 30 day period ending July 31, 1953, notify the county PMA committee-, of his intention to deliver the cotton under agreement.

August 1 parity for cotton. Loans will be available at the county. PMA office or from Iqnd- ing agencies such as banks, PCA and other financial institutions approved by the county PMA Committee. They will be available through April 30, 1953 and will draw interest at per cent per annum. It is expected Mr.

McMahcn said, that warehouse facilities will be available for all cotton produc' ed in this area and warehouse receipts-issued as basis for loans Committeemen were urgud to contact banks, PCA and other agencies to secure their participation in the cotton loan program Agreements- with lending agencies will be on a continuing basis and will not be executed every year as in the past. Lending agency agreements and forms for use in obtaining agreements will be made available to the counties in a short time. Instructions for selection of clerks to $2.84 a toss permitted under the law and the existing price standards. Arnall has said that nny- tliing above that figure would break the price line.

Yes, who else could it be but fun-loving Tom Swift, flying those flying saucers around? You remember Tom. the all- American boy inventor. He took up where Thomas Edison left off. The Horatio Alger heroes were scheming opportunists, tho Rovei Boys were juvenile hoboes, anc Frank Merriwell was a.tramp ath lete compared to Tom Swift, the dedicated youthful scientist. A generation ago he wad the fictional hero of every near-sighted lad whose scrawny frame com pelled him to believe in the powe of brain over brawn.

Three airforcc cops will hit Jiirn from three sides and cart him off to a psychopathic ward, as 'the fine old inventor yells, "I am, too Tom Swift! I am! I am! I ami" And that will be the end of Tom Swift and his flying saucers. This will eliminate ono of thu two major problems facing tho air- force today.

The other is the problem in Korea: Its inability to put up a plane that will enable its pilots to close in on a Russian MacArthur Takes Arms Co. Position NEW YORK (UP) Con.
