Ellender Favors Keeping
G. 0. P. Farm Program
By the Associated Press
Senator Ellender, Democrat of
Louisiana, today suggested the
Eisenhower administration and
Secretary of Agriculture Benson
"try out their farm program for
the coming year without major
change.”
Senator Ellender. chairman of
the Senate Agriculture Commit
tee, said he “is inclined to go
along with the present program
much as it stands now.”
Senator Aiken, Republican of
Vermont, ranking G. O. P. mem
ber of the committee, said in'a
separate interview he expected
“no major changes in the soil
bank and farm support program
this year.”
"We may have to find some
way to let corn farmers partici
pate in the soil bank,” Senator
Aiken said.
Both Senators spoke out in
U S. Hails Plan
For Allied Trade
By the Associated Press
The United States yesterday
endorsed the efforts of six Eu
ropean allies to establish “a com
mon market” by abloshing vir
tually all trade barriers among
themselves.
The six countries negotiating
for the creation of a free trade I
area are Belgium, France. West
Germany, Italy, Luxembourg and
The Netherlands.
A State Department policy
statement yesterday also wel
comed Britain's tentative de
cision to become associated with
the countries in the common
market by eliminating trade bar
riers between the British mar
ket and the six-country market
on a wide range of products.
United States officials said this
country welcomes the European
moves because it believes that
over a period of years the effect
will be to increase trade between
Western Europe and the United
States.
The policy statement empha
sized. however, that the Ameri
can Government intends to keep
a close watch on the development
of the proposed new European
marketing system to make cer
tain that United States exports, ;
particularly agricultural exports,
are not adversely affected. <

j Both said they expected some
, special legislation would be
■ needed to aid drought-plagued
farmers in the Great Plains.
( They agreed Congress should
‘ extend or expand the law that
, allows sale of surplus and United
, States farm products to “friendly
nations for foreign currencies or
, by barter.”
Secretary Benson and the Pres
t ident have asked for some change
I in the corn program under which
[ growers recently rejected by a
margin administration
proposals for acreage controls
. and soil bank participation.
Although 61 per cent of corn
. growers voting in the national
referendum approved the pro- 1
! posals, this was less than thej
. two-thirds vote required for’
adoption.
“Only about 24 per cent of
eligible corn growers took the
trouble to vote,” Senator Aiken
said, “so that we now have eight
or nine per cent able to veto the'
I corn proposals.”
Pravda Sees U. S.
Near Depression
MOSCOW, Jan. 16 (/P).—Pravda
said yesterday the United States
is headed toward a grave eco
nomic depression. It said Presi
dent Eisenhower’s state-of-the-
Union message proved this.
"It is no accident the Presi
dent’s message devoted primary
attention to growing inflation
which he characterized! as the
main danger' to the American!
economy.” the Soviet Communist
Party organ said.
' <The President told Con
gress in the message that the
United States has reached “an
unprecedented peak in our eco
nomic prosperity” but that the
danger of inflation “is always
present.” He called for a “vigi
lant guard” against the possi
bility of inflation.)
Pravda blamed what it pictured
as America's economic plight on
“the short-sighted calculations":
of American militarists and mo- i
nopolists. It claimed that the'
1 1956 profits of “American mo-!
nopolists" would reach s4l bil-l
lion “while the medium and small
businessmen, workers and farm
ers can only sigh.”
