Rivers Congress
lis Urged 10 Defer
Non-Defense Jobs
Plan to Use Them
As Postwar Backlog Of
Public Works Backed
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
MIAMI, Fla, Nov. IA plan to
defer non-defense projects and use
them as postwar backlog of public
works was indorsed today by speak
ers at the annual convention of the
Rivers and Harbors Congress.
Members of Congress, Govern
ment officials and Army officers all
have stressed that the Congress
should approve for immediate con-
struction only those projects which
have immediate defense value. and
messages to the group from Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Secretary of
War Stimson suggested the same
policy.
Senator Overton, Democrat. of
Louisiana, who outlined flood con-
troll work in the lower Mississippi
Valley, said in prepared address
he agreed with the Presidents plan
but urged delegates to apply to it
"the rule of reason"
Who shall say. then, that the
completion of the flood control prof.
ect Of the lower Mississippi Valley,
and its insurance against another
stupendous disaster, is not project
of important value in our national
defense?" Senator Overton asked.
Meanwhile, opponents of the ST.
Lawrence SeaWay prepared to go
before the convention with their de-
mand that the Congress specifically
disapprove the project.
Proponents of the project, led by
Maurice P. Davidson of the New

Gated they would be satisfied If the
convention Endorsed the 81 ,00O, ,OO0,-
600 omnibus rivers and harbors
authorizing bill now pending in
Congress.
The omnibus bill includes both
the seaWay and the 5000, 900 900
Florida ship canal, but congressional
representatives and other delegates
agreed that the ship canal appar-
emily would fall in the non n-defense
category.
The Florida waterway has re-
ceived little discussion during the
convention, either on or off the
floor.

Turkey Prices Reach
Peak for Six Years
As Thanksgiving Nears
Supply Larger Than in
1910; Few Small Birds
Available for Holiday
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
CHICAGO, Nov 14-The first of
the Nations dual Thanksgiving
Days comes next week and it finds
turkey prices the highest in six
years.
A little quiet research in the
rapidly expanding market for
dressed turkeys-birds already on
their way to retail counters for next
weeks big trade-found prices y
to 2 cents a pound higher than a
week ago. Wholesale prices ranged
from 20l2 to % cents a pound, the
latter on choice hens. A year ago,
prices we're from 13 to "a cents.
In 1886 turkeys sold as low as 81 y
for best quality just before Thanks
giving, but that was the cheapest
they have been - recert years. In
1885 they were up to 30 I'D 81 cents
and poultry dealers said the current
market is comparable to that.
Geese and ducks, still we're con-
sidered reasonably priced. Geese
were quoted at II to II cents a
pound, compared to Il to Is a year
ago, and ducks II Is, or only
slightly above last yea. quotations.
Dealers said the movement of
turkeys to market has been late
Quality is very good. The Al class
of birds was fattened on ample sup
plies of feed. Weights are running
heavy. as was the case last year. In
fact. dealers said, there is somewhat
of shortage of lighter birds.
Weights had been tending smaller
until last year, when the so-called
streamlined apartment house turkey
lost favor
The 1941 crop is estimated only
slightly larger than last year, or
around 100000 head, largest on
record. A year ago an unexpected
cold snap just before Thanksgiving
cost the lives Of about million birds.
Dealers are accustomed to the
double eheader" Thanksgiving, this
being the third and last of that kind
and, although this gives them q
longer marketing period, they have
experienced little difficulty, they
said. in meeting varied demands
from different parts of the country.
Thirty-three States will observe
Thanksgiving November 20 and the
others will feast week later.

In either case. you would take a
chance Of helping the saboteur in
his work.
The federal bureau Of inyes-
tigation has advised owners Of
strategic defense plants that
such ingenuity Is employed In
the manufacture of Internal
machines that no two bombs
can he handled alike with
safety.
Some will explode when moved,
due to a trigger or pendulum ar
others explode at a
specified time by use Of a clock
work device; others are connected
with lighting circuits so that when
the lights are turned on the bomb
some are equipped with
an acid timing device which will
cause the bomb to explode II 1t is
submerged in water.
Here are the rules given plant
owners by the FB1 handling such
cases:
Remain a safe distance from
] the bomb at all times.
o-Consider the protection of life
4 first and clear the surround
ing area Of all persons.
o-Remove inflammsbles from the
y immediate vicinity TO prevent
the spread Of fire in the event the
bomb explodes.
l-Disconneet all power lines in
the immediate vicinity TO pre-
vent fires or short-circuiting of the
power lines. over large area.
c-shut off all Illuminating gas
- lines in the area
Have in readiness fire fighting
" equipment.
Provide for an explosive expert
TO handle the bomb.
Whether an industrial plant il
destroyed by neglect or by inten-
ton is immaterial when consider
ing the loss of the plant to Ameri-
can production during a time OF
emergency. c. men have pointed
out in their surveys. A condition
which constitutes a hazard to the
personnel may be as dangerous as
a saboteur.
