Secretary of Agriculture Brannan asks Congress to extend federal control powers to more farm products. The plan would allow acreage allotments production goals and marketing quotas to prevent surpluses and low prices. It covers livestock poultry milk butterfat eggs hops honey gum naval stores and more.

West May Give Recognition to Chinese Reds

Diplomatic sources say most countries including Britain France Russia and India favor recognizing the Chinese Communist regime once its new national government is formed. The United States lags in urgent need for formal ties but may use recognition as leverage for better treatment of non-Soviet interests. France worries about Indo China while Britain pushes trade, Hong Kong shipping already calls on North China ports, and de facto recognition is sought though Beijing avoids full consulates. The timing hinges on the new government, likely by autumn, with Canton’s exile regime fading.
