Preliminary analyses by sortie of the congressmen indicate that
Israel may stand to gain more than any ether country if the new

Since the Arabs won’t like that, there is some concern that this
will increase tension in the area, rather than reduce it.

exports came to*$3.5 billion. For the cur-
rent fiscal year, the prospect is that a peak
of $4.1 billion will be attained.
The boost in exports appears to result
partly from extraordinary government ef-
forts to regain world markets, especially

We should do no cheering that the mis-
fortunes of others have given us this op-
portunity to improve our farmers’ circum-
stances. But we can take advantage of
the situation to speed adjustments that
might otherwise take much longer. *.
If higher exports plus reduced pro-
duction under the soil bank plan lead to
really healthy cut* in farm surpluses, then
the moment will be at hand to find and
enact into law long-range arm programs
which will substantially prevent any new’
buildup of excess stocks.
We cannot count indefinitely on dis-
turbed world conditions stimulating the
export market. In the end, we have to
solve the problem at home, by bringing
production into basic balance with U. S.
consumption.
With the nation’s rising population
curve, this should not be an impossible
matter. Nor should the expansion which

Highlight in 'History
On this day In 1899 was first
published one of the nation’s most
popular poems: The Man With
The Hoe, by Edwin Markham.
"How will it be with kingdoms
and with kings—
With those who shaped him to
the things he is—
When this dumb terror shall
reply to God,
After the silence of the cen-
turies?”
So wrote Edwin Markham 58
years ago.
This day in 1559 brought the
coronation of Queen Elisabeth
the First of England.
On this day in 1682, the French
playwright—Moliere—was bom.
On this day in 1759, the British
Museum opened.
On this day in 1919, Padewsk’
became the first prime "minister
of Poland.
On this day in 1929, the United
States Senate ratified the Kellogg-
Briand treaty to optlaw war.
On this day in 1986, Japan with-
drew from the London Naval Con-
ference,

words “his” or "hers"—just “ours."

SHtf ft’s good sportsmanship for the friend to bring
you a. duck. But for me the question arose —
How to clean a duck, or versa versa? Chposing
the latter, I let my husband do it. -
My cookbook said to melt a sizable amount of
paraffin and douse the duck in It. Let it cake
and peel it off and feathers sad, down will come
with it, having the bird as bare as a new-born
babe. That would have been the easier way. had
we kapt paraffin in the cupboard.
Resorting to ducking the clean, I merely sup-
plied my spouse with last Sunday’s New York
Times and sent him to the back porch where he
nimbly plucked the fowl, letting feathers fly over
the neighboring yards and the down still sticking
to the bird. What could be singed off was, the
rest we ate. The cookbook said real gourmets
cooked their duck the wild ones that is, only 10
minutes to the pound. , I rooked ours a good 30
minutes. It, was still bloody rare and the way my
husband Hked it. For me I’ll take a domestic, al-
ready cleaned super market bird cooked1 till the
meat falU off the bones, any day. «. Guess I’m just
old-fashioned! ,

citing as what you overhear?

a tendency toward racial and re-

Five years ago today, British

in Korea.
One year ago today, Russia set
a goal of ^ 65 per cent increase
