For that reason we believe that the Senate has acted unwisely in prohibiting the Air- Force from spending money on design or procurement of “aircraft intended primarily for com- mercial use, whether or not such aircraft may be adaptable for auxiliary military service.” The plain fact is that although the airlines are In this respect, the vast shake-up in the ranks of | adding new planes from present models, no new pro- labor parallels, or perhaps better follows, that in totypes.are "F“‘g Ce.stgd.

If the its leftist unions, those controlled by Communists. Thereafter, it will set up its own constituent unions, to raid the ousted unions. The over-all prospect, consequently, is for a period of intramural labor struggles, in which the Communist- controlled unions will be ground between upper and nether millstones. This is the hard way, but in the circumstances it is probably the only way in which the Communist contingent in American labor can be trimmed down to size. which makes it easy for an outside group to bargain for its influence on votes.

The Brannan Plan, on the other hand, would help a much broader group of farmers. It would support, the NAM con- tinues, “income of the producers of most of the nonstorable com- modities such as meat, dairy and poultry products and fruits and vegetables. Thus, this plan would extend financial assistance in tim- es of stress to a large and import- | ant segment of the agricultural in- dustry that has so far probably notbeen adequately provided for in the basic farm programs of the country. In this respect, the Bran- nan Plan would probably be more closely integrated with the entire farm problem than has been the case with the farm programs in past years.” The NAM analysis also lauds the idea of continued high-level pro- duction “without resorting to pro- duction controls or a program of ‘scarcity production’” Hence, the “greatest number of farm products would be comparatively free of pro- ductions and marketing American People Need Food “Even though the prices of some of the perishables might fall be- controls. | appropriations, exercise a continu- ing contfol over the expenditures made under this, or any other pro- tgram for supporting farm prices and income.” CAPITAL NEWS CAPSULES Broke G.O.P.—The Republican fNational Committee is so hard up Ithat its credit is no longer good in the capitol radio room. . .It has been the Committee’s practice to pay for recordings, which Republi- cans in Congress make and send to the radio stations back home.
