Although he doesn't expect 1959 will parallel sales of 1955, when dealers delivered cars, Mr. Colbert said there are many similarities between the present business conditions and those in the fall of 1954, when "the going was rough." That fall, he recalled, production of durable goods had decreased, employment had been down sharply in some industries, and at the same time the levels of personal income and savings had remained high.

But like other industry spokesmen, he was a bit cautious, too. He warned that Vail bets on the year ahead are off if the U. A.

Hart accused the Eisenhower administration of trying to drive the rural electrification cooperatives out of business with prohibitive interest rates on financing and the elimination of federal loan funds for REA co-ops. "Time after time," said Hart, "congress has overruled the administration to authorize loan funds for the co-ops." He said "the national policy should be to encourage farmer co-operatives rather than harass them with additional taxes which destroy their very functions." CHARGES FAILURE Republican farm support program of flexible price supports has failed, charged Hart.

"Their theory was that a reduction in price of a commodity would cause less of it to be produced, thus eliminating the so-called surplus. The cold facts of life are, however, that when a farmer is faced with lower prices he feels he has to produce more instead of less to maintain his income.

U. applied for the VHF channel 10 soon after beginning a television operation on UHF (ultra-high frequency) channel 60 in 1954. It was found that the peculiarities of the higher frequency range made operation on the UHF channel undesirable. Most television sets required conversion units to receive the station. UHF DISCONTINUED Operation of the UHF television programming of WKAR-TV was discontinued on June 30.

At that time, Pres. Hannah told the M. S. U. governing board that if the Channel 10 permit was not granted to the university, they might just as well get out of the educational television business.
