. BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTON

the same time the secretary of
agriculture announces adjust
ments in the prices of meat ami
mails, he announces that a deal is
being worked out to pay these
little slaughter houses a kind Of
subsidy for custom slaughter
ing" on government orders, thus
enabling them to keep going.
Lease-Lend Administration pays
the subsidy, so the taxpayers are
nicked.
At the same time the secretary
announces cuts in prices for meat
animals he announces decreases
in the prices to be paid for
evaporated and roller dried
skim milk, and increases in the
prices to be paid for spray skim
milk. cheese and butter. Did the
Office of Price Administration
approve these adjustments IN
prices? 1t did not. OPA was
consulted. But the Department
of Agriculture issued the orders
without OPA approval.
This would seem to make 1t
fairly unanimous that the Office
of Price Administration is in a
bad way. Congress cuts OPA's
budget for price enforcement,
the War Labor Board ,slaps OPA
down on the Little Steel wage
increase decision, the Depart
ment of Agriculture tells OPA
where to head in on farm prices.
Unless someone administers
some drastic medicine soon, look
out for gradual, creeping infla-
ton.

perhaps the opponents can be
forced beyond their depth. He
bids three clubs and achieves
his purpose when South bids
three hearts. From the point of
view of match-point play, East
has won the board. Three hearts
can be set one trick by the third
round spade ruff.
But now West comes to life
with bid of four clubs. He
thinks three hearts might be
made. but would like to double
four. Instead he himself is dou-
bled, and the victory won by
East is turned to bottom score.
West should realize that when
he passes two clubs, he in eff
feet promises East that he will
stay out of the bidding there
after, except to double for bust
ness. Any further bid by East Is
based on this promise.

July II, 1921, at Ozone, Wyo.,

was an Arapaho named Laugh

she murmured vaguely: Always

Finally Mrs. Smith married an

with a nomadic couple who
painted and wrote stories about
Indians. They were in New Eng

HOLLYWOOD, July 28.-To-
day we have the minor mystery
of the identity of the brownskin
movie cutie who calls herself
Burnu Acquanetta. While she
was cutting a swathe in New
York cafe society and the ateliers
of the illustrators and advertis-
ing artists, she represented her
self as a Venezuelan whose faith
er was in the legation in Wash
ington.
The black-haired gal with

AND THEN-INFLATION
Now this is only II items out
of possible 200, but if these
items can go through the cell
ings, others can. If they do,
where's price control? And
where is initiation but right
around the corner?
There may be-and are-good
and sufficient reasons why some
of these prices have gone
through the ceilings. Everyone
has admitted the difficulty of
trying to slap ceilings on hogs
and beef cattle, owing to the
differences in weights and grades
and the problem of trying to adj
minister price control on all the
farmers taking their animals 10
market. The Office of Price
Administration has tried to cor
rect the situation by imposing its
ceilings on the meat after it was
processed. That should have
rolled back the price and forced
down the prices paid to farmers,
but it hasn't worked. The big
packing houses have gone ahead
paying the above-ceiling prices,
threatening to force the little fell
lows out of business.
So what happnS to correct
this crazy situation? The secre
tary of agriculture cuts the price
of meat animals. Not the OPA,
but the secretary of agriculture,
acting through the Agricultural
Marketing Administration.
1t isn't the OPA that has the
final word on farm prices, 1t
seems, but the secretary of agri-
culture.
BY-PASSES OPA
Not only does the secretary OF
agriculture have the power TO
fix farm prices, but he has the
power to pay subsidies--a power
thus far denied the OPA. At

AS you may have heard men,
toned, the country now has a
price control law, which is sup
posed to hold down the cost of
living. Congress, in its infin-
lite wisdom in passing this law,
was loath to put many curbs on
the prices of agricultural COM
modities, but finally decided that
maximum price schedules could
not be applied until the prices
paid to farmers were above one
of four levels Cd ITO per cent of
parity, (2) the price as of Oct.
], 1941, 81 the price as of Dec.
Is, 1941, ca the average maxi
mum of the l0-year period from
July, 1919, through June, 1929.
There was a further restriction
that no agricultural prices could
be raised without prior consent
of the secretary of agriculture,
bit aside from that the price ad-
ministrator was supposed to
have a free hand.
Well, what's the agricultural
price situation now
Fifty per cent OF the prices
are still under parity, but the
prices on a dozen or more agri-
cultural commodities have gone
through all four of the ceilings
plastered on the law by Con-
greSs.
The question therefore arises
as to whether the country has a
price control law.
