Korea Seen Meeting On Truce Rift Seoul (Thursday), Aug. 1 1- (AP) Gen. Lvman L' Lemnitzer is expected to meet President Syng-man Rhee today, presumably on the crisis rising from Korean demands that Red truce teams leave by Saturday.

The Far East commander is expected to underscore the words of Secretary of State Dulles. Dulles appealed to South Korea at a Washington news conference toavoid violence. He said the United States will meet its obligation under the armistice to protect the teams. Rhee himself urged his country men to use no violence. But 300 demonstrators at the nearby port of Inchon ignored him.

They were turned back by U.S. soldiers with tear gas and fire hoses when they tried to storm the truce teams compound on Wolmi Island. A series of such demonstrations since last Saturday has injured 22 U.S. soldiers, none seriously, and 80 Koreans. The Neutral Nations Supervisory Commission, composed Swiss, Swedish and Communist Czech and Polish members, met for six hours Wednesday at the truce towns of Panmunjom.

A spokesman sajd the South Korean ultimatum may be answered South Korea insists the Czech and Polish members of the teams are spies. Dulles expressed general agreement at his news conference, but said he did not think the in formation they pick up imperils South Korea.

10 (Staff) Shelby County's disputed rabies control program was placed back, in operation today- by the Board of Supervisors." Ar the same the county fee was cut in half. The county had had rabies program since June when the board voted to discontinue it. Some sort of anti-rabies measure is required in each county by state law. The board, meeting this morning, tabled two letters from Dr. A.

K. Merriman of the state Agriculture Department asking that some action be taken toward reinstating the defunct program. After lunch, however, three doctors appealed to the board to reconsider, and the supervisors voted approval. They voted 1 1 for, 5 against, with 6 passing. Supervisor Ollie Baugher of Windsor Township asked for a second vote, asserting that the 6 passes were tantamount to "no" and therefore making the balloting tied.

In the second vote, Chairman W. A. Baker, cast a ballot for reinstating the program. The tally was recorded as 12; for and 11 against. Albert Jones, Republican from Dry Point Township, immediately resigned in protest from the rabies and bovine committee.

To fill die vacancy, Republican Jake Pinkston of Moweaqua was appointed. The doctors' who appealed for a renewed rabies control were Dr. P. A. Saupan of Effingham, director of the Shelby Effingham County Health Department, and Dr.

Duncan Biddlecombe and Dr. H. H. Pettry, both of Shelbyville. The new fee for inoculation of dogs is expected to be $2.50.

joyed orOTer60jears.GetDoa'PUls today! More Surplus Produce Seen Going Abroad America will get rid. of more of its surplus farm products abroad during the coming year, Rep. William L. Springer (R-Ill) said yes terday. "I believe the government now has the feel of the foreign airricul- tural disposal program and plans to carry it ahead with vieor dur ing the current fiscal year ending next June, Springer said a special news report from Washington.

The congressman said U. S. farm surpluses now amount to bout 7 billion dollars, nearlv all of which have been acquired by the government under farm price support programs in the last five years. The nation's farm storage problem is further complicated by the prospect ot this year over-all crop production reaching all-time highs. "The Congress has been strug gling during the past two vears witn legislation which would make substantial impact upon the storage problem," Springer said.

The Agricultural Trade Development Act of 1954, also known as Public Law- 480, is helping to reduce the government's stock of surplus farm he aid. "Approximately 1.7. billion dol lars worth of surpluses were sold in foreign for foreign currencies cr were distributed for relief in the fiscal year ended June 30, 1955hesai(L4- "The Act was, for all purposes, in operation only about eight months of the past fiscal year. however. With this experience, I believe we can do substantially uuini uit v.

Willi 1 till Springer said the Foreign Agricultural Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture now has under negotiation approximately 700 million' dollars worth of con tracts for sales of farm products broad. It is expected that an additional 700 million dollars worth of produce will be either "bartered or distributed for relief in underdeveloped countries this year. The congressman cited two "ifs" in. any further disposal of surplus farm products: "1.

Larger sales could be made in Southeast Asia, especially in Pakistan, India, Indonesia and Japan. "The problem there is to induce these countries to undertake a considerably expanded improvement in the eating standards of the peoples in those areas. "India last year undertook only a 26-million-dollar purchase in the movement. This made only a slight impact in India, a country of more than 250 million people. The amount should be increased to about 150 million dollars in purchases which could be made under Public Law 480.

"2. If East-West trade developments work out this year, we would be able to dispose of many of our by-products of animal production, in (Russian) satellite countries. "This would include lard and those portions of animals not in demand at the American dinner table. All of these by-products would sell at substantially lower prices than are presently demanded of the consumer in Russia and satellite countries. Presently, there is law nor State Department policy which would prevent these ales." Last year, commodities costing tie government $118,200,000 were given through all kinds of domestic programs.

These included the school lunch program, charitable institutions and the relief of indigent people. Commodities costing $223,500,000 also were given to charitable organizations now do-inv relief work abroad. These will remain at about the same level for this year, Springer said.
