Democratic Senatorial Race
Green Criticizes Farm
Program, Backs UMT
By Roger Henkle
Staff Writer
Universal Military Training and
the Republican Farm program
were the major topics of a speech
Dy .Democratic senatorial candi
date James F. Green at & Univer
sity .convocation Tuesday night.
Green criticized the proposals, of
the Eisenhower Administration to
lower farm price parities and en-
iorce ; acreage - allotments-on ; the"!
farmers. .He said he has found
the farmers in Nebraska "most
disturbed" over the acreage lim
itations on wheat which Secretary
of Agriculture Ezra Benson has
been enforcing.' There is relatively
no surplus in the type of wheat
most produced in the state, and it
would be impractical for the far
mer to. plant some of his acres in
fodder crops. '
Candidate Green, who is being
opposed -by Republican Roman
Hruska, went on to point out that
the Republican approach to the
farm situation. is based on "an
assumption that plenty is an evil
thins" He declared that Ne
braska's cereal grain reserves
would last us only two years, and

Sixteen ugly men have entered

that many bins in the state are
nearly empty. He urged continua
tion of the high parity program,
which, he said,' "has not been an
overall money-losing program pro
portionally."
Concerning UMT, Green favored
a "minute-man" approach to na
tional defense, in which he would
use the "man at home" in reserve
units. Although he suggested
six month's training program for
all young men, he recommended
it be broken up into ROTC pro
grams and several summer camps,
in order not to interfere with
college education.
He felt that (he trouble with the
present reserve system is that it
tends to exclude young men from
officer positions', and he agreed
with President Eisenhower's sug
gestion that we must build up and
vitalize our reserves.
Green opposed what he called
the "labeling of a candidate like
a can of tomatoes." Ke feels
that a representative should be just
what his name applies and no
party stooge.
James Green is a practicing
lawyer in Omaha and a director
of the Metropolitan Utilities Dis
trict. In the 1 past few years he
has served - as chairman of the
Democratic Party in Douglas
County, and aCtfed in many high

Written By Miller
"Death of a Salesman" was
written by Arthur ' Miller and ap
peared on Broadway to Feb. 10,
1949, with Lee Cobb and Mildred
Dunnock playing the leads. That
year the tragedy won the major
ity of the theatrical awards,
among them the Pulitzer Prize.
The setting for the tragedy is
unusual in that the cut-away sec
tion of the house is shown. Scen
ery is so constructed that Willy
can walk through the wails dur
ing his dream sequences. These
dream sequences are similar to
movie flashbacks. ,
Music for the performances will
be provided by records of the
background music played in the
original Broadway production.
Speakers surrounding the audi
ence will produce an effect of
stereophonic sound. The lighting,
like the set, is symbolic and iliu
sionary. ;When Willie is in a retrospective
mood, the lighting is rosy pink;
when Willie's thoughts are in the
present, the lighting is in harsh
hues of chilly amber. These light
ing manipulations which corre
spond to Willie's moods are so
gradual, frequent and such a mo
bile part of the entire production
that one light change is produced
almost every minute.
