New Beef Price Lists
Will Reach Butchers
Here Late Today
Schedule Delay Blamed
On Slow Sturt in Printing:
Supply Lowest in Weeks

Washington butchers who went
second day without the new price
schedules on the beef rollback be-
cause of a delay in printing the
forms in New York will begin re-
ceiving their lists late today or to-
morrow, local Office of Price Admin
istration officials promised.
1--WE are putting the schedules in
the mail this morning" an OPA
spokesman said. He said the delay
was due to the printers getting late
start following the OPA announce
ment Saturday night that beef prices
were being rolled back 10 per cent.
The rollback went into effect YES
terday, but it found butchers without
any official word Of the Govern
ment's action or any official price
list from which to work. The OPA
spokesman said he assumed butchers
would continue to sell the meat un-
der the old prices until such time
as the schedules arrvie.
Lowest Stocks In Weeks.
The new prices found the city
with the lowest stocks of beef in
weeks. Authorities attributed this
to heavy Government buying last
week and the fact packers were un-
loading their stocks ahead of the
rollback in order to prevent financial
loss.
An official in the local OPA esti-
mated it would take most of this
week to replenish beef supplies here.
Food wholesalers and retailers.
meantime. were given promises by
national OPA of partial restoration
of markups on certain foods, re-
duced last month by OPA pending
further study. The higher markups
will mean increases of / to cents
can on present prices, authorities
estimated, with certain important
exceptions.
Increases Permitted.
Increases will be permitted on
rice, pickles, relishes and on all
canned fruits and vegetables except
peaches, pears, pineapple, fruit cock
tail, corn, peas, green and wax
beans, tomatoes and tomato juice,
Administrator Prentiss NJ Brown
told the trade by letter.
Mr.. Browns action followed a
national conference here last week
at which retailers and wholesalers
both protested the reduced markups
and asked the OPA to quit "adver-
tising" ceiling prices of the four
classes of stores ranging from chain
to independent.
Mr.. Brown ruled that no store
will be required to post the prices
of another class store.
Other Changes Promised.
Other changes Mr.. Brown prom
ised for a new regulation Ito be
issued in the very near future:
Slightly higher markups for large
stores delivering to their retail stores
outside normal delivery area, to
compensate for extra costs involved.
In most cases this will not involve
any price change, Brown said.
Individual adjustment provisions
of markup regulations for retailer
owned cooperative wholesalers,
large chain stores which buy direct
and wholesalers and retailers who
customarily provided extraordinary
services.
The higher prices allowed for the
items mentioned previously would
not put them above prices in ex-
istence April 8, when President
Roosevelt issued his hold-the-line
order, Mr.. Brown said.

Senate Compromise
Seen in Wrang|e
Over Subsidies
Administration Aides
Work to Prevent Issue
From Reaching Floor
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Possibility of a compromise
settlement Of the congressional
wrangle over subsidies shaped up
in the Senate today as admins
tration forces renewed cloakroom
efforts to stave off a floor fight.
Speculation was that any agree
ment proposed would limit the
amount and number of subsidies the
Government could pay out to force
down food prices.
Such a proposal was offered by
Senator Taft, Republican, of Ohio,
but supporters of a projected So
o00,000,0OO price rollback program
objected that Senator Taft,s mea-
sure would authorize the Recon-
struction Finance Corp. to spend
only $3.50 100000 on subsidies in the
next II months.
While some Senators continued to
clanlor for prompt action on anti
subsidy legislation, administration
lieutenants sought to keep the battle
OF the floor until some compromise
could be effected.
Thus for the time, the chief open
battle-ground remains the Senate
Banking Committee room where
members are seeking agreement on
IN amendment to bill they reported
three weeks ago which would pro-
hibit all subsidies for food price re-
ductions without congressional ap-
proval.
The amendment was inserted in a
measure extending the life of the
Commodity Credit Corp. for two more
years and increasing its borrowing
power by $1,000,0O0, 1000.
PoStponing until tomorrow COM
mittee session originally scheduled
for today, Acting Chairman Bank
head acknowledged that II don't
know whether we can agree or not"
If no decision is reached, he added,
efforts to revise the anti-subsidy
measure will be carried to the Senate
door.
While Senator Taft and others
maintained that Congress should
permit sufficient subsidy payments
to care for commitments already
made in rolling back retail prices
of meats, butter and coffee, Chair
man George Of the Senate Finance
Committee said:
The principal of subsidies is
either all right or all wrong. I think
it's wrong"
Senator George predicted that a
general rollback of retail food prices
would run into billions of dollars"
and could be used to make or break
business through the granting or
denying of subsidies.

H. M. Wilson, vice president of
Shenango, declared at Pittsburgh:
This is a shame. We're fighting
a war here, and it's high time we
got over our differences.
The furnaces closed on the second
day of the current United Mine
Workers stoppage, whereas it was
on the fourth day Of walkout No. 2
that the first closings occurred. On
that occasion total of 13 went
down as follows: Carnegie Illinois,
IL; Republic Steel Corp, one in
Birmingham; Shenango, one. The
industry-wide loss of steel was es-
timated at $4,000 tons.
Republic disclosed yesterday that
four of its Alabama blast furnaces
were cut to 80 per cent of capacity
Meanwhile, railroad executives in
Pittsburgh reported coal supplies
were dangerously low.
A Pennsylvania Railroad spokes-
man estimated the carriers supply
would last about two weeks, but said
it would be necessary soon to cur
tail movement of less essential traf-
flc to keep war material moving.
Reports from the coal fields in
dicated all but few of the Nations
521 900 miners were staying away
from the pits, tending victory gard
ems, gathering in little groups to dis
cuss their mo contract, no work"
decision, or puttering about their
homes.
There were virtually no reports Of
disorders and very little picketing.
The loss in coal production was
approximately 100000 tons a day,
valued at more than $5,0OO00o at
the mine.
"All Of this coal cannot be made
up for the wars Duration" said a
spokesman for another large steel
company. whose supply was reported
enough for three weeks or more.

Allied Flyers Can Open
Any Barrier Blocking
Troops, Spaatz Says
Only Mathematical
Calculation Necessary,
Air Chief Declares
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
AN ADVANCED ALLIED AIR
BASE IN NORTH AFRICA, June
22.-Lt. Gen. Carl A. Spaatz de-
clared yesterday that any barrier
against the advance of Allied forces
could be reduced by air attack and
that the United Nations had the
resources to put the required num-
Der of planes to the task.
The American commander of the
North African Air Forces said the
destruction or naturalization Of any
such barrier was merely a matter
Of mathematical calculation.
Air Power Key to Operations.
Gen. Spaatz watched the sur
render Of Pantelleria from a de-
stroyer offshore after the Italian
island quivered beneath the heaviest
aerial bombardment ever delivered
to target of its size. That victory.
he said, as well as the Allied air
triumph in Tunisia, proved the
Allies have attained air superiority
and that air supremacy could be-
come available in any place that
the Allies choose to apply their air
superiority.
The general said an air force Is
vital IN warfare and that successful
major operations are possible only
if control OF the air has first been
obtained.
He said he was elated over the
work of American and British flyers
in pounding Pantelleria into defeat.
He said the thing that impressed
him most was the accuracy and
precision with which large masses
of planes can be applied against
particular target.
Warns of Safety Factors.
Gen. Spaatz said he was convinced
that the Pantelleria operation, as
well as others, was made possible
by the ability of Flying Fortresses
and other bombers to operate in
large formations in daylight and
drop their bombs accurately despite
the worst the enemy could do in
fighter opposition and ground fire.
This fact. more than any other,
was responsible for the emergency
OF Allied air supremacy necessary
in taking Pantelleria, he said.
Gen. Spaatz cautioned that al
though the Allies had the resources
Tor neutralizing or destroying any
barrier against advance, the ap-
plication Of this principle must
never be started until the force in
hand is adequate for the job. He
said the same scientific factors of
safety must be applied that an en-
gineer uses in building a bridge.

Hoover Warns Of Requests
By Bogus Men in Uniform
BY the Associated Press.

Noting that the number of con-
victions for illegal use of uniforms
had quadrupled, J. Edgar Hoover
warned today against giving out
military information merely be-
cause the request comes from man
in uniform"
Requests for such information
should never be granted unless they
are made for legitimate reasons and
by persons who can positively iden-
tify themselves as bona fide Off
GERS" the director of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation said.
He reported Alb persons convicted
of Illegally wearing uniforms of the
armed forces during the IL months
ended May 81, compared with 81
such convictions in the correspond
Ing period of the previous fiscal year.
In addition to seeking informa-
ton, Mr.. Hoover said the impostors
wore military uniforms to cash bad
checks, obtain extra supplies of ra-
toned goods and get reduced hotel
rates.

Dream Becomes
Realization
By NJ. L. Larkin

Somebody said that 'if you wish
long enough, and hope hard enough
your dream will come true Well,
we as members of Rose Hill Methodist
Church are one hundred percent in
accord with the first phase of this
statement, however, we would like to
paraphrase the part that says "and
hope hard enough" to "and work hard
enough"
For many, many years we have
wished for beautiful c h urc in
which to worship, however, we found
it took hard work to back up those
wishes and until this was done, we
only had beautiful air-castles.
Through the leadership Of our en-
ergetic pastor, who is a young man,
but one with great ideas, our church
has been demolished and a beautiful
edifice is now being constructed,
which is nearing completion.
We have Sunday School rooms, a
pastors study, a choir room and a
beautiful main auditorium. The en-
terror decoration is going to be very
beautiful. We are going to have the
self-service communion a |, some
thing any church could appreciate,
Everything promises to be modern
istic.
1t is our fondest hope and desire
that everything will be finished by
the first Sunday in November, which
has been set aside for dedication day
We invite you to worship with us on
the first Sunday in November in our
uc.ic cattrN services. Come and inspec
our beautiful church and help us to
dedicate it to God.
Remember, have not by any MEANS
given you full descriY ton of the
church for it will take to o much
space. You will have to come anc
see it to appreciate it. We shall ex
pect your presence.

not mean that we as Missssippians
do not have anything to do now We
