It did so in a iast-minute effort to defeat a Democratic move in the Senate to restore high, rigid price supports on basic farm crops. Secretary of AgricuUure Ezra T. Benson made the offer in a letter to Sen. George D. Aiken <R-Vt.) Aiken made the letter public a few hours before the Senate was sched uled to start voting on a farm bi*.'. Benson also said he would be willing to forego a scheduled cut in cotton acreage next year if Con gress votes for continuance of the administration-backed flexible sup ports ranging from 75 to 90 per cent of parity.

Pollution Possibility If there is any home in Dunn where weli water is being pumped while city water is also being used, City Manager A. B. Uzzle. Jr., wants to be notified. Such double systems leave a pos sibility of pollution to the city water supply. Uzzle said yesterday that the town continues to find wells cross-connected with the town water supply, and that they constitute a real danger. A ciosed valve between the well system and the city system is not positive protection, he said, again st pollution from the well being forced into the city supply. When the pressure in the city supply fines is less than the pres sure in the wed sapply lines there is a possibility that pollution from the well supply might be pumped into the city mains contaminating the entire Dunn water supply with, disease germs. "This is why," said Uzzle, "It is so important that the city water meter be taken out when the wel.' supply is being used. This creates an air gap and prevents an inter connection of the two systems.
