Bolling Sees Triumph For Democrats in '54
Predicting a sure Democratic majority in the House of Representatives in 1954, Rep. Richard Bolling (D.-Mo.) spoke to 100 members and guests of the Young Democrats club last night in the Union.
Preceding the speech, Mr. Boll- ing and his secretary, Larry Bodinson, were guests at a dinner held by the executive committee of the KU Young Democrats.
Mr. Bolling, a personal friend of Harry Truman, reported that he had talked with the former President before driving to Lawrence, and that Mr. Truman had received more than 4,000 telegrams, 95 per cent of which commented favorably on his speech concerning Harry Dexter White.
Among the political issues discussed by the congressman were:
"Herbert Brownell is doing an excellent job of tying the hands of the president, just as Sen. McCarthy has done in tying the hands of the state department." Mr. Bolling said. He also predicted that the Republicans, seeing the failure of Secretary of Agriculture Benson's farm program, will turn to the Brannan plan.
"Commenting on the tariff, Mr. Bolling said, "The only thing Eisenhower has done to foster trade is to refuse to raise the tariff on briar pipes." He said that although the President is outwardly concerned with reciprocal trade agreements he has packed the trade commission with high tariff advocates.
"Clubs such as the KU Young Democrats hold the promise for the future." Mr. Bolling stated. "The Republicans will pour money into the '54 campaign. The only way the Democrats can counter is to spread party policy and achievements in a door-to-door campaign," he said.
He denounced the Bricker amendment which would curb the President's executive powers as "completely unsound," and said there should be Fair Employment Practices legislation with enforcement provision.
Mr. and Mrs., Frank McDonald, honorary members of the KU Young Democrats, Jean Humpner, secretary of the Kansas Young Democrats, and Prof. Oldfather of the law faculty, were guests at the dinner and speech.
McCarthy to Get Network Time
New York — (U,P) — Three major radio and television network offered time to Sen. Joseph R. MeCarthy (R-Wis.) today to answer former President Harry S. Truman, attack on "McCarthyism."
The National Broadcasting company and the American Broadcasting company said they would make radio and television time available to Sen. McCarthy. The Mutual Broadcasting system, which has no television network, said it would make radio time available.
A fourth network, The Columbia Broadcasting system, said last night it would announce later whether it would agree to give Sen. McCarthy the time he requested.
McCarthy asked for "equal facilities" to match the 30 minutes of free radio and television time which the networks gave to Mr. Truman as a public service for his statement in the Harry Dexter White controversy Monday night.
It was estimated that if Mr. Tru man had paid for the 30 minutes of radio and television time it would have cost him about $300,000.
In his talk the former President attacked "McCarthyism" as "the corruption of truth, the abandonment of our historical devotion to fair play. .(and) the due process of law."
Mr. Truman said he was not referring to "the senator from Wisconsin—he is only important in that his name has taken on a dictionary meaning in the world."
Benson Plan May Provide Answer to Butter Prices
Washington—(U.P.)—Housewives may get a break on butter prices if Secretary of Agriculture Ezra T. Benson adopts a plan advanced by one of his advisory committees.
The plan, a one-shot proposition designed to clean out the huge stocks of surplus butter now piled up in federal storage, came up yesterday at the opening of a two-day meeting of leading dairy industry representatives. Details were to be ironed out today.
Benson asked the dairy leaders—and rice and peanut industry spokesmen who are also holding two-day sessions here—to give the National Agricultural Advisory commission their views on future farm programs.
Dairy: A farmer-financed dairy
The commission is readying recommendations for administration farm programs which will be presented to Congress in January. Although the meetings yesterday and today were secret, reporters learned that the butter disposal plan and these long-range programs are being considered by the three committees:

The "pool" funds would be used to do most price support buying of dairy products in times of surplus production.

Socialists Favor EDC Army In French Assembly Debate
Paris—(U.P.)—Socialist party leader Guy Mollet, holder of a veto power over the European Army treaty, warned today that France's failure to ratify the revolutionary project probably would prompt the United States and Britain to rearm West Germany.
UN Hits Climax Of Arms Debate
United Nations, N.Y.—(U.F.)—The United Nations reached the climax of its annual disarmament debate today, dealt with the second of two Arab condemnations of Israel, and opened a discussion on personnel policy which carried far-reaching implications.
The General Assembly's main political committee was scheduled to reach a belated vote this morning—after three postponements called in hope of getting Russia to participate in a rare unanimous ballot—on a Western-sponsored disarmament resolution providing for private big power talks on a world arms cut.
The Security Council was summoned for this afternoon to delve further into Syria's complaint that a hydro-electric project started by Israel would divert the river Jordan and deprive 15,000 Arabs of water for irrigation.
The administrative and budgetary committee opened debate this morning on Secretary-General Dag Hammarskogl's request for sweeping powers of dismissal affecting the 4,000 members of the UN Secretariat. He sought powers which, if held by his predecessor, Trygve Lye, could have avoided the furore raised by his dismissal of Americans on loyalty grounds.
The leader of the largest political group in the French Assembly also called upon the West to continue every effort to reach a settlement with the Soviet Union. "In my opinion, the West should tell Russia it agrees to holding a five-power conference with Red China," Mollet said. "But only after a four-power conference on Germany and Austria and after China has shown its good faith in Korea."
The French Assembly is engaged in a scheduled four-day debate on foreign policy, and the 105 Socialist representatives are supporting the government's moves for a unified Europe. The key question of the debate is how strong a final resolution on the European Defense Community (EDC) and European Political Community (EPC) premier Joseph Laniel will be able to get from the divided Assembly.
"Mollet admitted Germany rearmament probably was 'in inevitable' and the EDC, while perhaps 'premature', was the best solution offered to France. 'EDC adversaries should know that failure to ratify it would deprive France of all possibilities of controlling German rearmament." How much absolutely necessary for France to receive formal Anglo-American guarantees against eventual German attempts to secede."
Mollet said one of the Anglo-American guarantees should be the extension of the North Atlantic treaty from 20 to 50 years to cover the duration of the EDC.
