Heavy Losses Suffered
By British, Nozis Claim

BERLIN (From German Broad
casts, July 8 LP).-The British suf-
fered heavy losses in attacks against
the southern wing of the German
Italian forward position southwest
of Ell Alamein, the high command
said today.
This apparently was the flank
which the Germans said yesterday
Field Marshal Erwin Rommel had
bent back to the west, presumably
to guard against any thrust from
the rim of the Qattara depression
toward the coast in an effort to
pinch off the Axis spearhead.

Farm Bill Par|eys
Resumed After July
Funds Are Voted
Complications Arise
As Senate Approves
Full Parity Loans
B, the Associated Press.

Senators and House members,
still sharply at odds on the $780,
100000 farm bill, today planned
quick resumption of conferences
after reaching a temporary
agreement to supply the Depart
ment of Agriculture with July
funds.
A complicating factor, however,
was the Senate's action yesterday
in authorizing full parity loans on
six major farm crops-Wheat, corn
cotton, rice, tobacco and peanuts.
Parity is an artificial price level
calculated to give farm products the
purchasing power enjoyed in a pre-
vious period, in most cases 1909-1914.
Chairman Cannon of the House
Appropriations Committee declared
the loan bill, sponsored by Senators
Russell, Democrat, of Georgia and
Bankhead, Democrat, of Alabama,
would not resolve the controversy.
which Mr.. Cannon said involved
principle. The principle, he added,
was whether the Governments
parity program was going to be
broken down.
Crop Law Provisions.
Under present law co-operators
in the crop-control program are able
to obtain loans at IS per cent of
parity on the six major crops. Under
full parity loan program they
could borrow Is cents a bushel more
than the present market price on
corn and 80 cents bushel more on
wheat.
Senator Russell asserted the bill
would place a floor under farm
products which will enable the
farmer to exist in a world of rising
prices for the things he has to buy"
Senate Majority Leader Barkley
told reporters, however, that only
about $4,000, 900 bushels of the ex-
pected 900, 900, ,000- -bushel wheat har-
vest would be raised by co-operators
and thus subject to full loans. The
remaining free wheat" would have
to find its own price level, Senator
Barkley said, and he predicted that
any increase resulting from passage
OF the bill would be temporary.
Representative Cannon forecast a
presidential veto for the loan bill

5T. LOUIS BROWNS
 up NOW
Don't Belong in First Di- vision But They re
 There and Why
BY OSCAR KAHAN Wide World Features)

St. Louis, Sept. 18.-The Browns don't belong in the first division! But the team is there, neverthe- less, because it has no respect for it's betters.
 It's there because of Luke Sew Tell, the Alabama gentleman who is, without doubt, the manager Of the year.
 It's there because of Vernon Ste phens, the kid shortstop, and Don Gutteridge, the Cardinal castoff.
 It's there because of a sensation al home run spree by Chet Laabs and the ability of the team as a whole to wallop the ball out of the park.
 It's there because of unexpected pitching.
 And it's there in spite of injuries, misfortunes and the disappointing work of several veterans.
 To take the worst first, here are some reasons why the Browns seem out of place in fourth place.
 Harlond Gift, who once hit 34 home runs, a record for third base men, has lost the knack. George McQuinn, the flash fielding first baseman, has been batting errati- cally. Bad luck has dogged Walter Judnich and lately he has been hobbling around in center field with an injured leg.
 Muncrief Slips
 Pitcher Bob Muncrief, who was hopeful of winning 20 games, took the seasons opener and has scarce ly done anything since because of injuries. Frankie Hayes hurt his knee in mid-July and was out month, putting such a burden on Rick Terrell that his catching suf- fered from overwork.
 Nothing, however, better epito- mixes the Browns spirit in over coming such handicaps than "Old Man" Sewell catching a few games to relieve Terrell, and Luke's bruis- ing encounter with Tommy Heinrich of the Yankees in a play at the plate.
 Out country mile, Heinrich tried football tactics and charged full force into the Brownie manager. Sewell was knocked sprawling but held on to the ball. He came up from his forced dive in fighting mood but the umpires prevented trouble.
 With an aggressive manager like that, the Browns have refused to take 1t on the chin. They've de- veloped confidence, determination and disregard for the odds against them.
 The spark the Browns needed to explode them into the first division was provided by Laabs.
 Laabs Changed Stance
 The stocky outfielder changed his stance at the plate. and began ripping the cover off the ball. He hit seven home runs in eight games and singlehanded, practically, bat
