Grafton of the OPA for the next IL

Members said the Senate COM
mittee, considering a plea that it
restore the House cut, had insisted
that Mr.. Henderson produce figures
to show exactly how many employees
he must have to keep the present
program operating. If that is done.
the committee was said to be willing
to give him the amount he needed
on that basis.
Henderson Asks Subsidies.
Mr.. Henderson told the commit
tee last week that he could not keep
the lid on 10000 individual prices,
hold down rents in 1866 defense areas
and administer rationing with the
34,576 employees now on his staff
The $75,000,000 appropriation ap-
proved by the House would neces-
state cutting this staff to $4,000
instead of expanding it to $4,000 as
he proposed to do with the requested
$161 100000.
Mr.. Henderson also has asked
Congress to approve subsidies to
industries which, because OF higher
costs, cannot operate under preSent
price ceilings. Authorizing last week
a IS per cent increase in prices
Of canned fruits, he said 1t was
necessary because Of lack Of such
subsidies. ,.........

But this BILL" he protested, "goes
far beyond that. You may provide
for production of much more rubber
by use of critical materials needed
in the war effort and for non-
essential driving, If you please.
Eve believe that production Of
more than 100000 tons of synthetic
rubber, for instance, would be TAX

Declaring he was Jealous" of the

testimony was fabric of "misstate-

the National Grange made public

the National Grange made public
yesterday a letter to chairmen of
House and Senate Appropriations
and Agriculture Committees con-
tending ceiling price changes were
necessary because Mr.. Henderson's
policy resulted in prices so low
for farmers that they could not
cover the cost of harvesting"
1t asked an investigation, saying,
"The truth is that the program is
unworkable and it has become nee
essary to modify it in order to main
tain production"
The clothing order, effective Sat-
urday, is designed to relieve the
squeeze on retailers without boost
ing the cost to consumers. The
result, OPA said, would be to permit
the maintenance of existing retail
prices without bringing about de-
terioration in quality of apparel.
The roll-back" on manufacturers
and wholesalers-which requires
them to absorb a larger share of
cost increases in the industry-is
accomplished by pushing back the
base ceiling price dates to various
periods earlier than March, then
permitting specified percentages
markups to reflect increases in costs
of materials. trimmings and labor.
This method applies to retailers in
the sale Of topcoats and overcoats
and of tropical weight clothing
which were not being offered for
sale generally during the March
base period. In addition, the FORM
ulas apply to all clothing sold by
"tailors to the trade" and made
to-measure" shops. These establish
ments take orders. and measure
ments. but do not themselves man

u. S. Tank Expert, Given Up

Master Seret. Seostrom Safe After Weeks
In Desert Helping British Forces

while, Sergt. Seastrom was deep IN
the western desert, helping the Brit
ish with their tanks and winning
praise for valorous acts over and
above the line of his technical duty.
During one battle, a British crew
was unable to start its Gen. Grant
tank, so Sergt. Seastrom worked his
way forward; put things right and
returned. Later he was in charge Of
a group of British non-coms inspect
ing tanks at a reception point west
of Fort Capuzzo on the Libyan-
Egyptian border.
He stayed at that post for month
while the Germans and Italians
bombed and strafed Fort Capuzzo
nightly. He could have returned to
Cairo anytime, but he preferred to
stay on.
Sergt. Seastrom. about 49, doesn't t
know exactly where he was born, but
| he thinks it was some now extinct
lumber camp near the Wisconsin,
Minnesota border. He has a wife
and two children, believed now to be
living at Tacoma, Wash.
He came to the Near East a year
ago In the first group of Americans
to teach the British how to operate
and service the Honey and Gen
Grant tanks. He has seen service
In India and throughout the Near

The German communique said
Axis planes bombed British tank

in the repulse of a British counter
attack launched against a point
where the Axis troops had succeeded
