U S Willing To Ease Concessions On Test Ban Posts
The United States proposed cutting nuclear test ban inspection posts from 180 to about 80 at a 17 nation disarmament conference. Arthur Dean said the change reflects location concerns and would be presented next week. The plan was rejected by the Soviet Union, with Zorin calling little hope for a breakthrough. Rockefeller criticized Kennedy administration shifts toward the Soviet position.

Williams slams Kennedy feedgrain plan as boondoggle
Delaware Senator John J. Williams charged the Kennedy feedgrain program imprudently pays large corporations and a Chicago trust firm while threatening penalties. He noted more than 700 recipients got over 10 thousand dollars in 1961, including Farmers Investment Co. Tucson and the Northern Trust Co. Chicago, and even the Louisiana Penitentiary receiving funds. He argued the program mainly benefits corporate farmers who can halt production and cash in while small farmers struggle to adjust.
