: Washington is said to. have the

; baa some uf the" finest things in
the world. I am proud of the
Prayer Boom which was added to
the Capitol . last year. A small
roam was set aside on the west side
ef the rotunda for: Senators and
Representatives with facilities for
' prayer and meditation. It is a non.
denominational chapel., Th furn

- There has peen some political
- sriticism of Congressional hearings
on the farm situation. . I think
v this is regrettable. The Senate
Agriculture Committee made plans
a long time ago, as I understand
it, to hold the hearings to lee how
! the farm program was working out.
Tty fact that the hearings have
com at t time when farm prices
hive continued to fall has ftd rle.
" vant relationship to the plans made
a long time ago. As I am not a
member of the Committee on Agii
Culture. I will certainly want to
have the benefit of careful teati
xnony before voting on farm legis
' lation In the next Session., TMs is
a vital eemniittee function, and
think that there has been a defi
nite aervic rendered, in." seeing
what the farm people and others
are thinking. It is obvious' that
fara letf slaiaon will be the first
. order ef business in January. Par
tisans who charge political Impli-
cations in the committee's activity
' should review the reasons and
background for the hearings. There
is a problem t face nd the more
enlightened Hie Congress is on the
- problem win serve a valuable put

Washington Secretary of Agri
culture Ezra Benson is still under
very heavy pressure to take some
immediate action to giv the farm
er a lift despite the backing he re
cently received from President Eis

Already the Secretary has' sur
prised many political observers
with steadfastness of his opposi
tion to taking action, which would
improve the political climate . for

up greater nd- greater surpluses.
His critics, even in the G.O.P. sus
pect he may be right in principle,
but they think the present situa
tion is so critical the Administra
tion must be practical first. .,
And the practical thing to do-
according to many of Benson's crit
ics'is to iina a way to give tne
farmer a helping hand before it la
too late. This can be done if Ben-;
son would announce his support for
a land-rental plan, or some outer
plan which would bring money to
the farmer next year.
