CHICAGO, Jan. 31.-Grain prices
generally were lower today, wheat
and rye sagging almost 2 cents a
bushel, corn and oats about a cent
and soybeans as much as cents
before recovering part of the losses.
A break in cotton, weakness OF
securities and war news from the
Pacific were regarded as bearish
factors.
Washington developments affect
ing price control and Government
plans for disposal of surplus stocks
of wheat, corn and cotton unsettled
the market Grain men, however,
gave both bullish and bearish inter-
pretations to the possibility that
some or all of the Commodity Credit
Corporations supplies of grain may
be turned over to war production
agencies. They pointed out that
while this might relieve the c. C. c..
of supplies, which it has been offer

Hanrahan Says State

County Manager DeeIores

County Manager Frank c. Han
rahan today told the Arlington
County Board he opposes a plan
of the State Highway Commission
calling for the county to purchase
rights of way for construction Of
proposed Fairfax drive, connecting
Clarendon with Falls Church.
Under the plan. the State would
take over the county acquired land
and would construct the new road.
In exchange for which the county
would take over maintenance Of
North Washington boulevard which
Is an existing State highway rough
ly parallehng the proposed new
route.
The master zoning map and &C
companying new ordinance was
presented by Zoning Administrator
Donald r. Locke and Planning En-
gineer Frank l.. Dieter. A series Of
FIVE public hearings will be held
before the board acts.
Calls for State Funds.
The county manager said Arling-
ton is financially unable at present
to embark on an extensive land
buying program and that he could
see no reason why the State should
not obtain the rights-of-way for
developing one of it's highways as
is done in other sections Of Viz
ginia.
For the past two years Mr.. Han
rahan has negotiated with the State
Highway Department and before
the death Of Highway Commission
Chairman H. G. Shirley about three
months ago, Virginia road of1cials
had reacted favorably to the sug-
gestion that the State should obtain
the required lands and develop
Fairfax drive. Action was held up.

authorizing legislation would be
necessary at the present session OF
the General Assembly.
The Highway Commission has

unwilling to purchase the lano.
Arlington Plea Opposed.
Brig. Gen. James A. Anderson,
chairman of the State commission.
wrote the Arlington legislators,
I'VE do not believe the Highway
Department should buy the right
of-way and pay the construction
cost in addition thereto"
Mr.. Fenwick forwarded the views
of the State roads oficials to Mr..
Hanrahan and the county manager
replied he would not recommend
the States plan to the County
Board, nor would he negotiate for
the rights of way unless instructed
otherwise by the board.
The State should either place
Washington boulevard in a decent
condition or else provide us with
another highway which we 50 badly
need" Mr.. Hanrahan said. The
Highway Commission authorizes
right-of way buying for other roads,
some of which parallel existing
routes, and there is no reason why
this cannot be done here"

Wickdrd May Prevent
Parity-P|us Prices,
Russell Believes
Senator Hits Dumping
Cotton, Soys Secretary
Not Guided by Bill
Earlier Story on Page A-1.)

Earlier Story on Page A-1D
By the Associated Press.
Senator Russell, Democrat, OF
Georgia, member of the farm
bloc, expressed fear today, after
a long session with Secretary of
Agriculture Wickard, that the
new price control law might be
so administered that farm prices
would not get above parity "and
very likely not be able to reach
parity" - -:
Senator Russell said he believed
the departments policy "undoubted-
ly" was Ito dump large quantities of
cotton and other commodities on the
market" He added that he was dis
appointed. and charged that the de-
partment certainly does not intend
to be guided by the standards Of the
price-control bill"
1t was in this bill that the bloc
inserted provisions permitting agri-
culture prices to rise considerably
above parity before price ceilings
could apply.
On the other hand, Senator Bank
head, Democrat. of Alabama. another
of the bloc leaders who talked with
Secretary Wickard for two hours,
said he believed the departments
attitude was misunderstood and GER
tainly that the department was go
ing to be guided by provisions of the
price control bill.
He pointed out that this bill pro-
hibited disposal of surplus commodi-
ties except under regulations of the
1888 Agricultural Adjustment Act,
which limited the amount, manner
and prices by which disposals could
be made. Senator Bankhead said he
was assured that Mr.. Wickard
wanted farm prices to reach parity.
Senator Lucas, Democrat, of Illi-
nois, discussing the position of corn
in relation to the price structure,
said that the department was using
surplus quantities in such fashion
that it was bound to keep the price
of corn somewhere near static"

F. c. 6. CurtoiIs Permits
For New Rudio Stations

Construction permits for new
standard radio broadcast stations
were ordered curtailed by the Fed
eral Communications Commission
in ruling issued last night. 1t was
said to have been requested by the
War Production and Defense Com
munications Boards.
The new order will limit permits
for changes in equipment for exist
ing broadcast stations. 1t is de-
signed to stop the issuance of per-
mits for new stations where all or
a substantial part of the area to be
served receives primary service from
existing stations. Primary service is
service free from ordinary inter-
ference.
The effect of the order is practi-
cally to halt the construction of any
new stations, for substantially all
applications for permits for new
construction now come from areas
which have stations and where there
is a field of advertising revenue for
the support of them.
