The present headquarters of this farmers' association, which includes over 3300 county farm families in its membership, was occupied in May of 1936 and has proven inadequate for the many large meetings of commodity groups, home department sections and other gatherings which are a large part of the organization's activities. On some occasions, according to the offices, farmers have stood outside and looked through the windows in order to observe the programs. Included in the building plans, other than the required office space, is a spacious auditorium with kitchen facilities and a stage which will be available to other groups than Farm Bureau at times when not required by the organization.

The communists had proposed the 60-day limit. The exchange period is to start when an armistice is signed. The agreement does not touch the key question of voluntary repatriation. The United Nations command, holding 182,000 prisoners, had wanted 30 days more than was allowed the reds to complete the exchange. The reds list only 11,559 men in the red POW camps. Allied staff officers negotiating details for supervising a truce offered a two-point compromise: (1) If communists agree to rotating 40,000 troops a month in addition to men on temporary leave, the Allies will drop two demands the reds opposed. One of these would forbid shifting troops during a truce in a manner that could constitute an offensive threat. The other would require weekly reports on the location of all major military units. Reds originally agreed to rotating 5000 men monthly. They have increased this to 30,000. Allies originally asked 75,000 including men on rest and recuperation leave to Japan.

Lipscomb (R-Glendale) protested over spending money for supporting what he called a luxurious $46,000 house used to train home management students at UCLA. "I would rather spend the money to build three classrooms for kids going to school half days," he declared. But James Corley, financial vice president of the university, said the house is needed for laboratory training of students who in turn will become teachers or home management. In addition to state support, the University derives $14,000,000 more from other sources. The total operating budget is set at $8,000,000 more than for the current year. Corley said attempts at economy are being made at campuses where enrollments are dropping off.

Taft Speaks About Poor Policies of Harry Truman SEATTLE (AP)—A communist assault on Southeast Asia is on the horizon, Senator Taft told a Lincoln day audience here last night and "the only chance to stop it is by a Chinese National invasion of communist-held territory." American arms and training, the Ohioan told 5000 persons in Seattle's civic auditorium, should be speeded to Chiang Kai-Shek on Formosa and the "600,000 men in his army, navy and air force" to effect this invasion.

The forces Chiang has now, Taft Committee Finds Water Supplies Over Developed WASHINGTON (AP)—A special house subcommittee on reclamation reported today that "for all practical purposes the developed water supplies of the Sacramento river are overcommitted and oversubscribed." The group recommended construction of additional storage projects "as soon as possible" to augment water supplies in Northern California and in the California Central Valley area. It named no specific projects. The subcommittee, headed by Rep. Engle (D-Calif), filed with the House Interior Affairs committee its report on a hearing conducted jointly with a committee of the California legislature in Sacramento last October. The report was signed by Engle and Reps. Aspinall (D-Colo), Yorty (D-Calif), D'Ewart (R-Mont), Pulson (R-Calif) and Bow (R-Ohio). Bow, however, disagreed with the finding of inadequate water supply and in the recommendation of new projects. In a separate opinion, Bow said he did not believe new projects should be recommended until the committee knows details of plans and costs. Furthermore, he suggested that the state should take over the financing of any additional storage facilities that are needed to "firm up" the Central Velley project. He said Gov.
