short a time providing not only temporary
haven but productive livelihood
is unquestionably without precedent
It would be equal to the successful
immigration and economic
absorption of 45 million people into
he U S In a like period
SO IT IS NOT hard to see why the
men in the Kremlin are so intent on
changing the status quo It is a constant
irritation to them It deeply
embarrasses them in the eyes of the
whole world
In the late lJIOs they closed the
highways and railroads leading Into
ihis citadel 110 miles deep in communist
territory seeking thus to
hokc West Berlin by economic
strangulation since the city is not
an economically selfsufficient unit
and must have trade with the West
to live This was countered by the
Berlin Airhft one of the most daringly
conceived and brilliantly executed
stratcgems of modern times
The Russian purpose was thwarted
and the blockade finally abandoned
Frustrated in this abortive attempt
a destroy West Berlin and all that
it symbolized the Russian leaders
have bluffed and blustered but to no
avail Now they seem determined to
carry out a bold maneuver They
liave set August 1st as the deadline
ON THAT DATE if the Kremlin
nllows through on its announced
plan the puppet state of East Germany
will begin requiring all allied
aircraft entering Berlin to Tgister
Aith the satellite government This
mmediately confronts us with a di
emma since we do not recognize
hat government as valid
If we fail to register or even
f we should comply with this de
nand the stage is set for further
iirrassment The puppet govern
mtnt could close the corridors
h rough which commerce enters the
Icaguered city They could cstab
ish a ground blockade at the West
nerman borders holt and disrupt
raffic
Or they could establish an air
1 li ckade effectively stopping all civilian
and commercial flights chal
lenging military air traffic or even
sabotaging the landing strips in West
Berlin If these things w < ere done in
i he name of the East German gov
rnment which was not a signatory
n the existing treaties or if simply
done by gangs of volunteers the
Kremlin could piously claim it was
not involved Lets not dodge the
tact that it could result in armed
onflict It all depends on how far
hev are prepared to go
IF WE WERE simply intent on
avoiding the possibility of a clash
e could abandon our position and
agree to Russias terms We could
appease Kruschev evacuate West
lerhn and let it be gobbled up its
lamps rf freedom snuffed out and
is proud and free citizenry assim
ilated in the Soviet pattern But if
e did we would welsh on our sol
mn commitment We would banish
pvrry vestige of respect we have en
loved and our selfrespect as
well
Almost a generation ago Neville
Chamberlain boasted that he had
I urchased peace for his time at
the cost of another nations freedom
He lived to learn that it couldnt be
done Nor can it be done today
The people of West Berlin want to
remain free and all the world knows
t If we were to delude ourselves
i w hatcver logic of expediency Into
abandoning them the U S would be
through We might as well quit for
nobody would believe us again

the firmness of our own intentions
A miscalculation that could lead to

diplomacy is far less likely when
Russia knows exactly where we
stand
Many Texas farmers can increase
significantly their net income by
utilizing more fully presently known
technology according to Director
John E Hutchison of the Texas Agricultural
Extension Service He said
that farm families could increase
their annual net income at least 100
million by using the most advances
technological and management practices
Hutchisons statement followed
an evaluation of firstyear results in
Extensions intensified soil fertitity
program which was launched early
in 1960
Initially 12 counties representing
different major land resource areas
were selected to participate In the
pilot project They included 4 counties
on the High Plains 3 on the
Coast Prairie and S in Northeast
Texas where both Blackland and
sandyland were involved Emphasis
was given to crop production prac
tices important to those areas These
included the use of fertilizer based
on soil tests planting the best varieties
of crops effective insect and
disease control appropriate soil and
water conservation measures and
other practices based on the best
research information available
Results were obtained by comparing
net profits from crops grown
under advanced technological mcth
ods with income from carefully controlled
check plots where usual farnv
ing practices were employed Increased
29 million If all farmers
followed recommended practices
creased net income reported ranged
from 1 SS per acre to 5207 pel
acre In one county Red River 47
demonstrations indicated that nei
income of the county could be increased
29 million if all farmers
followed recommended practices
If results in the 12 pilot counties
arc indicative of what can be ac
complishcd on a statewide basis il
means a potential equivalent to ar
important new industry In each Texas
county Hutchison said
Tho immediate success of the pllo
project already has prompted 17 additional
counties to initiate an intensified
soil fertility program arte
many others arc making plans t
follow suit The key to the succes
of this venture was the active participation
of local people under the
direction of County Program Building
Committees Hutchison err
phasized In each county local ag
ncultural and civic leaders assistcr
the county extension staff in carrying
out the program USDA personnel
and soil conservation district
supervisors also played an activ
role Other cooperating organization
included the Texas Plant Food Educational
Society the National Plan
Food Institute American Potash In
stitutc and the Texas Agriculture
Limestone Association
This success presents a challengi
to the total leadership and cduca
tional forces of the state for her i
proof that the problem primarily 1
one of the man and not of the land
