Resarh ecniue

the first display of its kind in
the world, an exhibition of recent
publications and of work in pro-
gress in linguistic geography and
dialectology is being shown at 3015
Rackham Building this week.
Thirty-six countries, including
such. farflung countries as Peru
and Cambodia, are represented by
the work of their scholars, mem-
bers of the International Center
of Dialectology.
The idea] and the organization
of the exhibition came from Prof.
Sever Pop of the Catholic Univer-
sity of Louvain, Belgium and foun-
der of the International Center of
Dialectology. This center has 365
members and its main enterprise
is an "Encyclopedia of Linguist-
tics."
Map of Contributors
Installed in the big exhibition
room on the mezzanine floor of
the Rackham Bldg., the first thing
which strikes the eye of an ob-
server is an enlarged outline map
of the world done in relief and
illuminated with spotlights. On the
map is Ann Arbor, to which rib-
bons lead from the countries rep-
resented in the exhibit.
Included in the exhibition are
graphs on linguistic geography and
dialectology, journals devoted to
this branch of linguistic research
and samples of field records and
of maps in manuscript.

EAST LANSING UP-Secretary~
of Agriculture Ezra T. Benson
said yesterday he didn't like the
"stiff medicine" that crops con-
trols and penalties for over-pro-
duction impose on American agri-
culture.
But American farmers will be
faced with such controls for some
time, Benson said in a speech at
a meeting of the Artificial Breed-
ers Cooperative at Michigan State
College.
Must Continue Controls
"Because of the surpluses which
have been built up under high,
fixed price supports, it will be
necessary to continue some con-
trols for a time," Benson said.
"But flexible price supports,
along with our other programs,
will help to reduce these excess

reserves, establish better balancei i
in our agriculture and will hasten-
the day when farmers will again By PAT ROELOFS A fellow countryman, living in

Says

Dairy Support
Works Well
EAST LANSING(')-The 75 per
cent support rate of dairy pro-
ducts is working out very well,
Secretary of Agriculture Ezra T.
Benson said yesterday.
Benson, at Michigan State Col-
lege to address the Michigan Arti-
ficial Breeders Cooperative, held
a news conference following his
formal address.
He sat with a glass of milk in
front of him and preached his
contention that everyone should
drink more milk.
Consumption Up
"The 75 per cent support rate
is working out very well," Benson
said. "Consumption of dairy pro-
ducts is increasing. I believe we'll
be able to work out the dairy prob-
lem at the present support level.
The only real answer to it is to
increase consumption."
Benson praised the role the press
has been playing in publicizing the
administration's farm program,
"Farmers will make the right
decisions if they have all the
facts," he- said. "The press is an
invaluable help in getting the facts
to them."
Benson was asked about a
charge made by a Democratic con-
gressman that administration lead-
ers had been "pressuring" mem-
bers of the House and Senate to
get through the President's farm
program.
"I haven't heard of it," Benson
said, "and I don't believe it. Pres-
ident Eisenhower doesn't work
that way."
Surplus a Problem
Benson said the grain surplus
continued to be a major problem
for thedAgriculture department.
"Frankly," he said, "I d o n 't
know where we're going to put it.
We have it in boats on the Hudson
River now, in airplane carriers
and in schoolhouses. We're just
about running out of storage plac-
es."
Then Benson returned to his
favorite topic - drinking milk.
"I notice they have a milk dis-
penser in this building," he said.
"They should be placed every-
where that there's a coke maciine.
We have eight milk dispensing
machines in the Department of
Agriculture now, but that's the
first time they've ever been there."
A throng of 2,500 shirt-sleeved
farmers and their wives heard
Benson. In his party were Rep.
Alvin M. Bentley (R-Mich), Kit
Clardy (R-Mich) and Charles Figy,
former director of the State De-
partment of Agriculture and now
an assistant in the Federal Agri-
culture Department.

number of farmers are becoming
convinced that the disadvantages

which can be gained through the

son said.!
May StockpileI
Benson revealed that the gov-
ernment is exploring the possibil-
ity of stockpiling food for use in
the event of war.
"In the age of weapons designed
to wipe out entire cities," he said,
''we can well make provisions forI
storing reserve supplies in rela-1
tively safe areas throughout the
nation.
"Certainly, some of the surplus
commodities which would be in-
sulated from the regular markets
under the President's set-aside
proposal could be stored as stra-
tegic reserves in various parts of
the country.
"While all of us pray that the
years ahead will be peaceful ones,
the -final decision on that all-im-
portant question is not ours to
make. For that reason, we are
exploring with the Office of De-
fense Mobilization and the Civil
Defense Administration a food

help to insure an emergency food

New Navy Jet
On Test Runs
Capable of Supersonic
Speed in Level Flight
HICKSVILLE, N. Y. OP--A speck
that whisked through the sky over
Long Island during the past week
was disclosed Thursday to be a
new Navy jet fighter capable of
supersonic speeds in level flight.
The wasp - waisted craft, the
Grumman F9F9 Tiger, is described
by the Grumman :.ircraft Engine-
ering Corp. as one of the few com-
bat airplanes in the world capable
of such speed on a level course.
Her builders said she is capable
of supersonic speed whether at sea
level or any altitudes ranging up
to around 50,000 feet. The speed
of sound at sea level is about 760
miles an hour.
Fourth Flight
The new craft completed her
fourth successful flight Thursday
from the corporation's Peconic
River plant on Long Island.
The Tiger made her first flight
Friday. That was four days before
a British jet fighter, the English
Electric P1, also capable'of super-
sonic speed in level, flight, ynade
her maiden test hop in England.
The new American plane is the
first of an undisclosed number of
Tigers Grumnman will produce for
the Navy under a 40 million dollar
contract.
Grumman said it designed the
Tiger to meet the Navy's concept
of a powerful carrier striking force
equipped with fast, hard-hitting
aircraft with retaliation ability to
take the fight to any enemy's home
ground."
The U.S. Air Force is known to
have at least one airplane that has
exceeded the speed of sound in
level flight-the North American
Aviation, Inc. F100. The Air Force
also has plans for at least two
other supersonic jets, the F102, an
interceptor, and the F104, a
fighter,
