Ike Discloses Plans For More Farm Aid
WASHINGTON—(UP) — President Eisenhower disclosed today that the administration is planning a broad new program of emergency federal aid to farmers in drought areas of the West and Midwest.
He told his news conference that full details will be announced by the white house later today.
Mr. Eisenhower also announced that he will call a conference in Washington after the November elections at which leaders of the 14 drought-stricken states will discuss long-range plans for coping with the problem.
The President said the new program will include provisions for increasing aid on an emergency basis until Congress meets again in January.
COLUMBIA, Mo. — (UP) — Agriculture Secretary Ezra T. Benson has promised that his department will "waste no time" in making a decision on a five-point drought relief plan submitted to the President by a special emergency committee.
The plan was submitted to Mr. Benson during a 45-minute meeting here yesterday. He said at the time he would make no commitment for the government, but promised the speedy study.
Benson Studies Missouri Drought
Dean John H. Longwell of the Missouri University College of Agriculture told Mr. Benson that the water shortage in the state was "critical." He said on the state experiment1 farm there is no moisture in the top two feet of soil and only $1\frac{1}{2}$ inches of moisture in the top six feet.

Farmers Hopeful, But Still No Rain
The joint agricultural report said harvest of late-maturing crops made rapid progress during the past week of warm, dry weather. Some 31 per cent of the sorghum crop has been harvested and yields in eastern counties has been fair to good. Yield on western irrigated fields was labeled "very good."
TOPEKA — (UP) — Farmers in northern Kansas counties continue to "dust in" wheat but most others are waiting hopeful for moisture before planting, the state and federal governments said today.
The report said pasture grazing was poor and roughage supplies are critically low, particularly in central and western areas. Stock-water supplies were extremely low in many localities and liquidation of cattle herd continues.

LONDON — (UP) — A U.S.
Air Force transport with 59 home-
ward-bound American servicemen
aboard vanished early today over

Within hours the air force threw its 9th air rescue squadron into operation and "more than a dozen" airplanes began a systematic search for the missing plane, criss-crossing the area from southern England to the Azores.

MONDAY
British troops and Pakistani police from the British controlled hinterland behind Kowloon patrolled the streets while Royal Air Force jets flew overhead. It was the first time Britain had taken such a step for fear of offending the Chinese Reds whose frontier is only a few miles away.
HONG KONG — (UP) — The Hong Kong government rushed British Army troops and tanks tonight, into areas of the colony near the Red China border to halt two days of rioting that turned finally against Europeans.
Hong Kong Riots Still Out Of Hand
Mobs swarming through the streets of Kowloon on the mainland across from Hong Kong proper attacked all Europeans they could find. They tried to burn to death the chancellor of the Swiss consulate and his wife by drenching their car with gasoline and setting it afire.
Europenas attacked by the mobs were given refuge in the police station. They were still there under guard tonight while British troops patrolled the area with orders to shoot if necessary. Tanks guarded important intersections.
