GOP Favors Ike’s
Farm Price Freeze
WASTTTNCTON f/P)—Senate Re
publicans voted 17-14 in a stormy
closed session Tuesday to tell
President Eisenhower they favor
his signing a bill to freeze farm
price supports.
Members said a majority of
those attending a session of the
Senate Republican Policy Com
mittee went oir recm’d as believ
ing Eisenhower should allow to be
come law a bill to freeze farm
price supports for one year at
their 1957 levels or higher.
Declining to confirm or deny re
ports on the vote, Senate Repu
blican Leader Knowland of Califor
nia said that if the 17-14 result
was reasonably accurate, report
ers should remember that eight
or nine Republicans had left the
meeting before a show of hands
was called for.
Knowland said he would tele
phone the results of the informal
poll to Eisenhower. He said the
show of hands was taken after
farm state members brought up
the issue themselves.
Movie Awards
Slated Under
Heavy Sorrow
HOLLYWOOD, UP)—A sad
dened Hollywood prepared
Tuesday for the 30th annual
Academy Awards, at which an
Oscar may go to widowed
Elizabeth Taylor.
The note of sorrow underlying
tonight’s ceremony stems from the
death of Mike Todd, one of film
land’s top showmen and the hus
band of Miss Taylor.
Just a year ago, Mike gave his
wife a kiss and hustled down the
aisle of the Pantages Theater to
claim the gold statuette for his
“Around the World in 80 Days” as
the best picture of 195G.
Funeral services were held yes
terday for Todd, killed in a week
end plane crash.
Todd will again be honored this
year. The Todd-AO wide-screen
process, which the producer helped
develop, has been voted a scientific
award by the academy Board of
Governors.
His widow may also win an
award for her performance in
“Raintree County.” Most observ
ers forecast a tight race with Deb
orah Kerr of “Heaven Knows, Mr.
Allison” and Joanne Woodward,
“Three Faces of Eve.”
Also in the running for the top
actress Oscar are Anna Magnani,
“Wild Is the Wind” and Lana Tur
ner, “Peyton Place.”
Leading the male contenders is
Alec Guinness, “The Bridge on the
River Kwai.” Also in the running
are Marlon Brando, “Sayonara,”
Anthony Franciosa, “A Hatful of
Rain,” Charles Laughton, “Witness
for the Prosecution,” and Anthony
Quinn, “Wild Is the Wind.”
Nominated for best picture:
“Bridge on the River Kwai,” “Pey
ton Place,” “Sayonara,” “Twelve
Angry Men” and “Witness for the
Prosecution.”

AFTER SHAVE LOTION
by SHULTON
Sen. Thye (R-Minn), who has
backed the bill to keep price sup
ports from dropping below 1957
levels, said he argued that the
President should sign the meas
ure. Secretary of Agriculture Ben
son has objected to the bill, saying
it is likely to pile up more ci’op
surpluses and increase govern
ment subsidies.
If Eisenhower vetoes the bill-
as is widely expected—Thye said
he will vote to override the veto.
Both the Senate and the House
originally passed the freeze meas
ure by majorities short of the two-
thirds which would be needed to
override a veto.
There are 47 Republican sen
ator’s. Knowland said eight or nine
left the meeting before the show
of hands came. The remaining
GOP senators did not attend.

A big boost toward the goal of

Gifts have been sent in memory

House Passes
Bill To Raise
Military Pay
WASHINGTON, UP) — The
House Tuesday passed 36G-22
a bill to make military careers
more attractive—with a hefty
pay raise as the immediate in
ducement.
The bill’s benefits, going to prac
tically all servicemen with more
than two years seiwice, were esti
mated to cost GG8 million dollars a
year.
House passage was by roll call
vote, sending the bill to the Sen
ate. However, the House acted on
ly after listening to some acid
comment on the services asking
for incentives to keep men in uni
form! while they were ordering re
servists out. There also was crit
icism of the idea that “dollars in
themselves” would induce young
men to make their careers in uni
form.
The principal provision of the
bill is: Pay raises, highest in the
top enlisted and officer brackets,
but going to practically all but of
ficers and enlisted men in their
first two years of service. Thus
draftees and young officers doing
obligated service would be exclud
ed.
