the day, afternoon and night shifts.
The truck and trailer units were
formerly used in delivering auto
mobiles. There aren't any automo-
biles to deliver these days; the de-
fense worker transportation prob
lem is growing ever more critical
So the Robertson firm put those
two factors together and came up
with the idea of converting their
trucks into species of bus.
Two other firms are working on
similar ideas. A Berkeley Calf }
trailer plant has developed what it
terms herringbone seating ar
rangement whereby it says los pas
sengers can be accommodated, Sc

Angeles trailer firm is proceeding
along the same general line.
Tires? The companies think the
use to which the vehicles are put
probably will guarantee priorities
And if not. flanged rims can be
mounted on the wheels and the
trailer-buses operated on rails.

Roosevelt Renews
Efforts 10 Break
Farm Bill Deadlock
Statement Accompanies
Sic nature on Stopgop
Fund Measure
By the Associated Press.

6S tue hSSOSldtSu TEeSS'
President Roosevelt made another
attempt yesterday to persuade Con-
gress to break long deadlock over
the $3.50, 100000 agriculture appro-
priations bill. declaring that "our
war needs do not permit compromise
or partisan discord."
The issue In matters in disagree
ment between the Senate and House.
he said in a statement, is that of
more abundant production of the
things we need" He added that
I'VE cannot afford to cripple any
part of our productive effort with
unnecessary legislative shackles."
The presidential statement ac-
companied his signature of a stop
gap bill which supplied funds for
the Agriculture Department for
July.
The main points in disagreement
are the questions of selling wheat
at subparity prices for livestock
feeding and the appropriation for
the Farm Security Administration,
which has been reduced drastically
In the bill as 1t stands now.
Text of Presidents Statement.
The House has insisted on banning
any sales of Government-held wheat
at less than parity, while the Senate
has voted to sell 125, ,0O0, 900 bushels
OF wheat under the parity level-for
feeding purposes alone.
The text of the Presidents state
nent follows:
II have just signed HR 7349 under
which the Department of Agriculture
appropriations are continued for the
month of July. / am glad that this
bill was finally approved by both
Houses OF the Congress without the
prohibition against the sale Of Gov
ernment-held stocks Of feed grains,
but regret that the operations of a
department so essential to our
domestic and war needs should be
left in such predicament at this
critical period in the Nations history
THE Department Of Agriculture is
charged with the responsibility OF
giving leadership to the greatest ag-
ricultural production effort the
country has ever known. Each day
the part that food must play in the
winning Of the war becomes more
apparent. The matters on which
agreement has not yet been reached
embody the issue Of more abundant
production of the things we need
Our war needs do not permit COM
promise or partisan discord on that
issue. We cannot afford to cripple
any part OF our productive effort with
unnecessary legislative shackles.
Congress Asked to Act.
1T Is my earnest hope that the
Congress will move quickly to ar
agreement on the major items ir
dispute in order that more adequate
agricultural production may b.
achieved and maintained. Freedom
to utilize our Government stock O.
grain in accord with the principles
Of the ever-normal granary is +.
necessary means to this end. Thi
is no time to hamstring successful
principles. Only thus can we assure
increased production of livestocl
and dairy products so essential II
our war needs.
MY recommendation for tn,
Farm Security Administration viii
enable nder-employed farmers t.
produce more so that their produc
ton may be available for our wa
needs. The Senate provisions repre-
sent minimum step in utilizing ou
