Pieteres of Kltrushetiev, Malenkov; and Zhukov were spread aoro3.i five t'oltln ns. A!1 the while, the AP's major rivais - United Pi'c'as Intern>- tional and Reuters -- hold their -.fire. Reuters at first carried only a brief aadviso•s' to •editors, sny- ingg that it w•as checking out the rumour. (it later began carry- ing the full story.) UPI, despite pr'essur'e front client papers, sat firmly on the story until 11:25 a.n1., when it was able to quote the official Soviet news agency Tess as ceiling the rumeu•s "ut• tet' nonsenee." The Vienna rumour, never theles., touched off a flurry- of speculation around the worid. The NovtYork- Daily News re- ported that 3,000 telephone in- quiries about K jainmed its switchboard. The New York Times noted filet the unsupport- ed rumour, implying as harrier Soviet line toward the U.S., touched off a brief spurt in elec- tronic and defense: stocks on Wall Street. How bad the rumour started? The AP rel) ,rt,'d that its man in Vienna .-- 34 -year-old Hans ILmcdict — had picked up the gn::;;ip when ten different Aus- trian Government officials tele- phoned him to asst if the story was true. UPI slid a Man rclpr0- o sting himself as a Tele -printer operator :;t the Soviet Embassy had walked ituu the wire .'er- ;•ice's. Vienna bureau, clainlin0 that he had learned the contents o.f a coded 0110Rage from Mus - cow. The runv)ur trills wore also speeded up by Abend -Presse, a five -day-old evening newspaper published by Fritz Peter Mol - den. the heir of the old, respect- ed Vienna publishing family. Three hours after the AP's first report, Abend -Presse hit the streets with a slightly different version, listing Lazar M, Kaga- ta,Vitch as the new Soviet Presi- dent. Molden. e wartime OSS opera- tive inside they ranks of the German Army (and former son- ic. -law of U.S. Central InteUi- _ence Agency director Alien Dulles), insisted he had picked up the story from "one of the most reliable sources in the Western world" and then had checked it independently with Western diplomatic sources and with someone "very close to the Austrian Government." Indig- nantly denying any connection between the coup rumours .And his desire to attract attention to - his new Abend -Presse, Midden said: "If this story is true—and considering our sources, the pts- sibility seems extremely strong -- it is obviously the biggest story os the year." As for the U.S. vire services, AP general manager Frenlc Star- zel defended hie agency's action, painting out thal AP had made exhaustive checking efforts and had labeled it es completely un- supported. Starzel said: "Yeti look sort 0) foolish not carrviul- a ;tory on the wire when a rll- ni,our is as widespread and mov- ing in such- high circles es this o14 wee."

ISSI'P ,0 — 1060 Farmer Strikes "Parsnip old" One Canadian prairie farmer who became tired of growing surplus grain now has his en- tire countryside talking about the way ire struck it rich seek- ing a partial escape from the glut of wheat. Trying a crop foreign to the dry -land- Munson district south- east of Red Deer, Alta., W. E. Williams is cashing in on it to the tune of approximately $2,000 an acre. And his only regret is that he devoted but seven acres to the outlandish pursuit of taising parsnip seed. The crop was no more work nor trouble to him than his regular grain opera- tions, which this year returned between $30 and $33 an acre. Early last year, in casting about for something else to grow besides more surplus wheat, Mr. Williams decided to give a whirl to some crop that no one else in those parts was raising on a commerclaI scale. And he struck upon parsnip seed. With mere hope than confi- dence, he planted the crop to a seven -acre plot of his rich loam soil in rows 21 inches apart with a common grain -seeding outfit. He left the vegetable crop in the ground over the winter, and this year it attracted much attention as its foliage grew to a height of around 30 inches and present- ed a strange sight, states a writer in .the Christian Science Monitor. • Passers-by, not accustomed to seeing a parsnip seed crop, could not identify it as any !;rain or forage crop. Many .dismissed the plot of ground as "just having gone to weeds." But when harvest time came along this fall, it set the cash register clanking for Mr. Wil- liams — even though there was no proper equipment in the ter- ritory for garnering the parti- cular crop. Mr. Williams went right ahead and harvested the crop with his ordinary wheat swather and combine, hoping he would obtain a good recovery of seed. The harvest gave him mare than 7,000 pounds of cleaned parsnip seed. And then came an even more fabulous surprise for the happy farmer as he learned the price for this seed ranged from 1.49 to :x2.25 a pound. As a result of his pleasant ex- perience in seeking some escape from growing more - surplus wheat, many other fanners on the Canadian prairies now are entertaining plans of producing parsnip seed.
