MUNN WASHINGTON Eisenhower was advised agam that Congress must act at its next session on legislation to authorize V.S. participation in building the St.

Lawrence seaway or lit will be too late. That was the substance tit a talk between Eisenhower and a grcjp ot seaway supporters from the Midwest, including Sen.s Ferguson and Potter and Rep. Dondero, Michigan Republicans. Potter told newsmen that he lieves Eiseirfiower, who favors limited U.S. participation in the long controversial project, understands the urgency for prompt legislative action.

"If we don't joint (in the construction)," Potter said, "Canada will build It alone." License to N. Y. Canada, that the Federal Power Commission has granted a license to New York State build a big 600 million dollar pcr.v- er project on the St. Lawrence River, could build the Atlanlac-to- tfce-Great Lakes waterivay on own side the bitemational stream. Ferguson, chairman of the Sen-! ate's Republican Policy Committee group that decides which legislation shall be acted he is confident that tiie seaway proposal will win Senate approval.

The Senate, however, has defeated seaway legislation three times since 1936. It has never been before the House. Committees considered it, some favorably and others unfavorably. On "Must" List Ferguson will join with other congressional leaders and the President today in shaping the administration's legislative program for the session beginning 6. Presumably, because of his interest in the seaway, Ferguson will urge tfiat the St.

Lawrence proposal be placed on the list "must' bills. Asked about that possibility, Ferguson said he would "mention" the matter. He described the Pres- Soviet (Ccmtinued from Page 1) cused attempting to sabotage the country's collective farm system and of interfering with the efforts of the Communist party and govemment to bring about "a steady improvement the well being of the Soviet people." The former police chief, "selected as his basic metntid," the statement charged, "slander, trigues and various provocations against honest party and local emment workers, who stood in the path of his intents an obstacle to him in his efforts to gain power. Beria and his accomplices dealt arbitrarily wifli people who did not suit them, not shrinking from acts of lawlessness." First Offleial Word The announcement was the first official word on Beria since August when the Supreme Soviet Parliament confirmed his ouster from the govemment Meantime many rumors as to his alleged whereabouts have been heard outside the Soviet Union. In Washington ofti- cials expressed surprise that the Kremlin had decided to bring the Beria case back into prominence ata time when a Big Four foreign ministers' meeting appears imminent.

The timing seemed particularly unusual, they said, since Beria is charged with plotting to convert Russia into a capitalist state with the help of "imperialit" al-! lies. LATEST! Fond du Lac Co. Hunting Buffalo CAMPBELSPORT, Wis. W-An urgent call went out of the Fond du Lac County sheriff's office Wednesday help needed to round up buffalo. It seems that two of the beasts were roaming the woods east of here after breaking out of their specially built corral at Round Lake.

The buffaloes, seven months old but weighing 500 pounds each, were brought to Wisconsin from In- depeijclence, Wednesday by theur new owner, Josejrtj Fahn, resort operator. When Fahn's dog began barking, the animals charged through the fence and into the nearby Kettle Moraine State Forest. An airplane and a sheriff's posse, armed only with strong rope, joined the hunt. By nightfall, flie animals still were at large. Program to (Continued from Page 1) serve the welfare of 160 million people, and I know we shsill succeed." Eisenhower said such a policy will advance a program started last year, and he ticked off these points as accomplishments in 1933: "Stopped the shooting and casualty list in Korea.

"Reduced by IS biUion doUars the previous administration's request for new appropriations. "Cleared the way for Jannaiy tax reductions in personal income taxes and excess-profits taxes. 'Stabilized tlie purcliasine power of the citizens' dollar and stopped inflation. 'Removed stifling controls on our economy. "Extended emergency aid to agriculture and assisted those in drought-affected areas.

"Removed security risks from federal service on the simple premise that those disloyal or unsuitable for federal govemment cannot work for it. "Strengthened our defenses and those of the free world against Communist aggression. "Enacted emergency legislation permitting additional immigration in urgent situations." ident's attitude couraging." today as "en- Last lury Cases of Year Cancelled A delay in trial of the Circuit action of the Wisconsin Grain Processing Co. vs. Public Auction Service of Fort Atkinson, has cancelled jury work here until Jan.
