the KINGSTON DAILY FBEEMAN. KINGSTON. N. Y- WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 23, 1955. TWENTY-ONE Confusion Remains Over Remedies State Farmers Against Supports and Controls Think It Through By COWARD F.

HUTTON Neighbor, I get the heebie-jeebies when I read about Mr. Stassen and his powwows, looking to what he calls If I have a gun to protect my wife and home from a robber, I am not going to hand over the shooting iron and then listen to him when he has two guns mine and his. bright idea is mutual exchange of all defense blueprints, plus aerial inspection. In thqj case, playing footsie with a mess of rattlesnakes. bad enough to try to push the Red murderers into second place in the headlines, but to follow it up by.

actually trying to prod them into inspecting us is nonsensical. outclassed. a criminal offense for an American to take pictures of our military establishments. But Stassen invites foreigners to do so and what foreigners! Mr. Hutton The Constitution is supposed to protect us from cruel and unusual punishment mental and physical.

To entrust such a fateful situation to Mr. Stassen is enough to scare a turnip! playing Russian roulette with loaded dice on a crooked table. How crazy can we get? Mr. Stassen is a gentleman. I know him and like him.

In domestic affairs, he has his points, but not as a country boy against the guile and treachery of the East.

Nov. 23 C.T) The Senate agriculture committee heard something about nearly every angle of New York farming last week. But the mass of testimony, taken in Utica, still left a cloud of confusion hanging over possible remedies for the agricultural problems. Sen. George D.

Aiken (R-VtX, a member of the committee, commented that York is almost the problem child of the nation as far as dairying GOV. HARRIMAN and a Long Island grower testified that potato fanners in the state were in dire straits. Ferris G. Talmage said that as many as 400 of our 1,200 Long Island potato men are insolvent as of New York poultrymen told the committee they were in pretty good shape that government controls had been lifted from their Stanley Stout of Penn Yan told the senators heatedly: want no government supports, because we want no HIS COMMENT brought loud applause from the 300 spectators, most of whom were farmers. The audience left no doubt that there were many farmers in the state yearning for a return to the good old days of marketing through supply and demand government help or restrictions.

Spessard Holland (D-Fla) told a reporter that in the two weeks he had been sitting with the committee on its tour of major farm areas in the nation he had heard farmers divide almost evenly on whether the government should continue to support agriculture in some way. He said most family-farmers wanted no supports. THIS VIEWPOINT was backed up somewhat by testimony from New York State Farm Bureau spokesmen. They urged that the national flexible price support program be continued because is working in the right direction." Don J. Wickham of Hector, bureau president, said farmers in New York state are not ready to accept and do ndt government production controls or marketing quotas.

But most organization leaders, from the more conservative to least conservative groups, called for some sort of government supervision. ONE FACT cropped up repeatedly: New farm problems are entwined with the economies of the other states and of the world. For example: New York dairymen could get a better price if they could get more money for the part of their milk that goes into manufacturing, but, as the senators were told, if New manufactur ing milk prices were raised, it might go begging for a market because the same milk could be bought cheaper in other states. New York potato growers are in difficulty because there are too many potatoes on the market. Much of the surplus has been caused by farmers in other states switching to potato-growing because government controls made it unprofitable for them to grow their usual, crops.

---------------a--------------Amendment bond amendment. According to Mr. Papp and his committee less than four miles of highway remains to be constructed. On May 14 1954 A. C.

Clark, deputy commissioner of the Federal Bureau of Public Roads informed the Parents Committee that the Federal appropriation of 350,000 allocated as federal aid was still availble. Mr. Papp said that the Parents Committee is very much disturbed at the they have been getting on the matter. ACCORDING to the letter from Mr. Bingham of the office, the Department of Public Works was ready for advertising for bids and the project was to be included in a letting proposal for December 1.

However, the letter says, defeat of the bond amendment has changed the situation. Each end of the Notch road has been built by the state. However, the middle section, 3.98 miles long is still town road, winding and rough. It was reported that serious damage in the flood of Oct. 16 has aggravated the condition.

The road was inspected by U. S. Army Engineers under the federal disaster relief plan. ---------o--------The pansy is one of the oldest garden flowers in cultivation. --------There are about 1,500 species of palms.

MOST OF the troops, just back from strenuous field maneuvers will eat in their own Quonset mess halls.

Many soldiers said they were thinking about happier past and future Thanksgivings at home.

Many were helping support Korean orphanages. SOME SOLDIERS, many in late teens and early 20s, were troubled this Thanksgiving with a feeling that Korea has been forgotten by the folks at home. Cpl.
