CASH FOB UNDEVELOPED AREAS The United States and other nations would , provide several billion dollars JT for the development of the Middle East, Africa, South Asia and South east Asia, for. the purpose of break ing ','the back of hunger and famine" , ,and obtaining an abundance of "criti- cal materials" for this country .and ' Europe.

The recommendation comes from ' the International Development Advis ory 'Board, headed (by Nelson Rocke : ' feller, which suggests a super-admini-, etrator to handle the major foreign economic activities of this govern 1 ment A special effort would be made .; to provide credit facilities and to en courage private investment in produc es tion facilities. The gist of the scheme 0 is to oppose the economic subversion of Soviet imperialism by a construe-. ; tive program of economic develop , , men. Among other recommendations is tne spending of ?500,000,000 a year stimulate the flow of private Invest ment capital to undeveloped areas, with special inducements to attract in vestments, such as exemptions from U- S. taxes- and foreign tax dis crimination. : " ; The Overseas Economic Administra tor would attempt to bring about the investment of $2,000,000,000 in pri vate money in production facilities alone. In order to make the "invest ment relatively safe, the suggestion is made; that the projects be undertaken under longvterjn government purchase contracts, or accelerated atnorization, as defense facilities. , This means, if it means anything, that the investors, who uphold the cause of private en terprise, would put up their money but have the backing of a government contract or other enducements that would take all the risk out of the en terprise. fWe are in general accord with the international program outlined. It represents a forward-looking view of world conditions. Nevertheless, if the which have done nothing to bring about the improvement , NEW POWER FOR VOICE OF AMERICA The gravity ' of the international situation leads President Truman to request Congress to speed up appro priations for the construction of a ring of radio transmitters so that the Voive of America programs can have adequate radio coverage - in critical areas of the Vtforld.

WOULD CHECK "PRIVILEGED" SMEAR (CAMPAIGNS Adolph J. Sabaxh, 84-year-old dean of the House of Representatives, who was born in Czecho-'Slovakia, wants to do something about the practise of using the Congressional Record for "personal attacks and smear cam paigns.'' In his effort to prevent abuses of the privilege of immunity, which pro tects members of Congress from lia bility for statements made in Con gress, the Illinois legislator should have the best wishes of the nation. Not many Americans are the victims of unfairness that is exhibited by pub lishing articles in the Congressional Record, but all of us should be con cerned with fair play for every other American. The Congressional Record, as the reader knows, contains two parts. The first is the account of the actual pro ceedings of the two Houses and the second is an appendix, in which mem bers insert additional remarks of their own editorials, news articles, speeches and virtually anything that strikes their fancy, The appendix is used, very often, for members of Congress to curry fa vors with editors or public speakers, It includes a variety of ".insertions" that, for some ria.son, the member of Congress thinks people should read. Very often, the articles include charg es against third persons that would be libelous if made elseiwhere -but the Congressional speaker, or writer, is protected by the privilege of im mundty. Ui course, uongress should be a privileged forum and Congressmen, as a rule,sshould nrtie liable for re marks made in the, course of debate, Nevertheless, there is no reason why Congress itself should not seek to devise some plan to defend every American from unlicensed attacks. It could be doge without interfering with the frea speech privilege of Congress men and will be done, eventually, un less tiie Members of Congress willing ly permit irresponsible members of the two Houses to take advantage of a privilege. SMALL BUSINESS NEEDS DEFENSE (ORDERS Facing the threat of atomic warfare, responsible officials have suggested that the United States should de-centralize its industrial facilities. Even before World War II, the idea was advanced to scatter essential indus tries throughout the nation rather than increase the concentration of in dustry that how exists in certain im portant industrial regions. When the Japanese attacked us at Pearl Harbor, however, the urgency of the 'situation compelled the Gov ernment to make contracts with com panies already in existence and able to function immediately. The result was the further expansion of indus trial facilities in the congested indus trial areas rather than the de-cenltrali zation of facilities in scattered areas where they would be better protected from enemy attack. In connection with the- present de fense production program, it is im portant for the Government to bear these facts in mind. NeverVless, Senator Hubert Humphrey, of Minne sota, asserts that "small business hag had the procurement door slawr-ed m its face" and that a relative handful of larger companies are receiving "muM-million dollar contracts" in such amounts that our industrial giants are backlogged for months. Mr, Humphrey points out that re mobilization program signed the death sentence for "thousands of small firms using . steel, copper, aluminum, brass, zinc, nickel, rubber and other materials- in short supply" and that the only hope for their existence is signed contracts with the Government or jjub-contnwtg with large companies that have defense contracts. ? Accordingly, the Minnesota, Con gressman wants to set up an inde pendent office of small business pro duction and issue regulations that would assure small plants an oppor tunity to participate in ' the produc tion required by the mobilization program.

It is best to plant two or three rows at one time to insure good pollination. -The large-seeded lima Ibean is an other crop that has been neglected except in the mountains, where it sete good crops. In the Pkdmond and Coastal Plain most of the large-seeded limas will not set a good crop due (to climatic factors.- Therefore, most gardeners in these areas plant the small-seeded types, such as Henderson Eush or Carolina Sieva Pole.
