Newsmen Admit Communist Ties Under Senate Inquiry
Two New York newspapermen testified they were Communists in the 1930s but left the party amid disillusionment. James S. Geaser of the Daily Worker and Classon Knowles of The New York Times described Moscow control and personal motives, while others invoked amendments or refused to answer. The hearing, led by Senator Eastland, probed Red influences in media. In a separate item, Queen Elizabeth named A. M. Ramsey Archbishop of York, noting Ramsey’s Durham tenure and Garbett’s death.

Farmers face government payments and acreage cuts debate
A breakfast discussion with Benson explored tying government payments to land retirement and surpluses, with a potential 2 percent reduction in acreage allotments and a fertility or soil bank concept.
