Filibuster Fight Over Atomic Energy Bill Deepens
Washington July 20 Senators in a heated battle over administration atomic energy legislation met to consider options as Knowland charges opposition with filibustering. Gore dismissed obstruction claims after long remarks, while Lehman proposed scrapping the omnibus and introducing a new measure aligned with Eisenhower’s information sharing aims. Langer attacked private power deals to supply TVA and warned against a power monopoly, as debates threatened adjournment and broader bills behind the energy measure.

Farm Census Preview for 1950s Agriculture Survey
Washington reports the Census Bureau will survey all U.S. farmers this fall with about 100 questions. This marks the 16th such census since 1840, with separate farm statistics tracked since 1850. In 1850 there were 1,449,000 farms on 293,600,000 acres feeding 8 of 23,200,000 people. By 1950 farms numbered 5,382,000 on 1,158,600,000 acres, feeding 3.5 times as many people as a century earlier, while the total number of farms remained well below 1850 levels in the coming year.
