Hot Potato: Surplus Potatoes Stir Washington Debate
Washington officials clash over disposal of 30,000,000 bushels from the 1949 crop as Sen Aiken and Sen Anderson urge the Senate Agriculture Committee to stay hands off. Secretary Brannan proposes dumping surplus locally to cut transport costs, risking a multiyear loss of up to 106 million dollars. The plan hinges on government action and freight payments to move the stock to processors.

Hydrogen Bomb Drive Warns of New Arms Push
Washington reports the United States aims to exploit advances in hydrogen bomb technology next year or sooner. A ban on all atomic weapons under strict international controls is seen as the only path to stop such weapons, while the State Department reviews policy and possible talks with Russia. President Truman orders continued work on all atomic weapons, including the hydrogen bomb, as defense measures receive broad congressional support.

Facts of Farm Programs Discussed by Hampstead County Farmers
Hampstead county farmers gathered at Hope City Hall yesterday for a discussion led by T. E B. Atkinson of the University of Arkansas extension economics. County Agent Oliver L. Adame presided. The talk stressed the link between agriculture and industry and labor as urban consumers provide a market for farm produce when profitably employed. A farm program aims to prevent depressions and high supports can mean greater control and fewer people on farms. The session noted county acreage allotment is based on production share of cropland, not allocated to individual farmers.
