The problem in the Soviet Union is: How you gonna get ’em down on the farm in Siberia after they’ve lolled behind a desk in Moscow? That is the job of Nikita S. Khrushchev, first secretary of the Communist party and the man in charge of boosting agricultural production. Khrushchev kicked off .the first of his multiple farm drives in Sep- tember 1953. Volunteers were re- cruited and the country was able to report a slight increase in grain production but still fell short of the goals in livestock raising. Now the leaders want to open more acreage, with more people. The Soviets need more. grain not only for their own people but for trading. purposes. +The Ministry of Health an- nounced that those it dismissed would be guaranteed new jobs.

HAROLD OLIVER WASHINGTON # — The nation’s mayors were told by the Contin- ental Air Defense commander to-| day that the outbreak of a global war could mean ‘100 pinpointed minutes of atomic hell on earth” for a hundred big American cities. Gen. Benjamin W. Chidlaw posed this frightening possibility, saying stands “the most likely chance of being hit all-out in a mighty aerial blow” before Russia strikes anywhere else in starting a full scale war. Chidlaw’s remarks . were pre- pared for the more than 200 mayors and city managers from] ing the 48 states and territories gath- ered for briefings on the nation’s foreign and defense policies. President Eisenhower, who is- sued the invitations for the two- day series of meetings, arranged to greet the group with an in-| formal speech. 5 His talk was scheduled for 9:50 a.m. EST. ‘i Aside from the President’s talk, the sessions were scheduled to take place. behind closed doors, al- though some speeches such as Chidlaw’s are being made public. After each speech the meeting was to switch to questions and discus- sion. The Mayors’ Conference is the second of its kind. Last year’s conference developed a sharp dispute among the mayors and government leaders over the role the federal government should play in civil defense in an atomic emergency. Eisenhower told that meeting that the cities -should shoulder the main burden. Meanwhile, the National Securi- ty Council, which last year’s con- ference asked to review the civil defense subject, and the~Federal Civil Defense Administration have made what FCDA officials de- scribe as “much progress” in working out plans.
