Farm State Senators were organ
lied today to enlist public pressure
for higher farm prices and to in
vestigate administration agriculture
policies which they contend will
cause food shortages by the end Of
the year.
Chairman Smith of the Agricul-
ture Committee yesterday called an
executive meeting to formulate
strategy for the inquiry into poll
cies which he said were "retarding

Senator Smith picked Senators
Stewart, Democrat, of Tennessee;
Wheeler. Democrat. of Montana;
Aiken. Republican, of Vermont and
Bushfield, Republican, of South Da-
kota to work with him as chairman
in an effort to create public senti-
ment for higher farm prices that
will "enable farmers to hire labor
needed to produce food to feed this
Nation"
Administration Assaulted.
Senator Aiken declared that ad-
ministrative agencies had developed
a tendency Ito do the wrong thing
every time they act"
The 48-hour work week ordered
by President Roosevelt, he declared,
will tend to preclude. rather than
to induce a movement back to the
farm"
The 30 per cent increase in an
industrial workers wages by reason
Of the eight additional hours will
broaden the discrepancy between
industrial and farm wages" Senator
Aiken said, adding:
In most cases the increase alone
will involve more money than the
average farmer can pay his labor.
Farm prices must be permitted to
rise, farm machinery must be made
available, and workers must be d.
verified to agricultural areas If we
are going to produce the food for
ourselves and our Allies.
Support Bankhead Bill.
II am hopeful we can show him so
convincingly at public hearings that
the general PUBLICITY jewellers as
well as those in the rural areas-will
petition Congress to give relief"
Meanwhile, the Agriculture Com
mittee was reported virtually unani-
nous in support of bill by Sena-
tor Bankhead, Democrat, of Ala
bama to prohibit the ONCE of Price
Administration from including farm
benefit payments as income In COM
putting price ceilings.
Another measure, to include all
farm labor costs in computing parity
prices on which to base ceilings, also
has the committees unanimous sup
port, Senator Smith said. The lat
ter bill is now pending in the House.

The War On MonyFronts
By CARL ANDERSON

GENERAL LEAD WAR
 Russian and German forces were engaged today in a climatic strug- gle for Kiev, ancient capital of the Ukraine and one-great Nazi mili- tary base, as the Red Army forged ahead on the long Soviet front.
 The Germans were reported fir ing and leveling the city before giv- ing 1t up to Soviet troops fighting their way through its main de- lenses.
 Slowly but surely the Russians were gaining the upper hand against desperate Nazi attempts to prevent full collapse of the Dnieper river line. Entire Russian Russian divii- sions were ferrying the river to en- large big and firmly-held bridge heads.
 Once Kiev falls, the Germans may be forced to turn and run again.
 Kiev's semi-circle of defenses were blasted open but the Germans threw masses of mel, tanks and planes in counter-attacks from Kiev south ward to Kremenchug, 1l5 miles down the Dnieper, in fruitless ef- fort to stop the Russians.
 In White Russia 150 miles to the north, Russian artillery pounded Gomel, hinge of enemy defenses, from across the Sozh river, the east bank of which had been cleared. The Red Army hacked out further advances toward Vitebsk.
 Slowed by rain, mud and stiff fened German defenses, the Anglo American Fifth Army hauled up ar- tillery to the south bank of the Vol- turno river in Italy to jar loose the German line.
 The stream, narrow and shallow normally, was roaring at flood stage and sloshing over its banks In places delaying Q mass crossing. The ar- tillery preparation was calculated to shake loose the enemy's first de- lense line below Rome, about 100 miles away.
 On the eastern side Of Che Italian peninsula, Gen. Sir Bernard L' Monteomery'a Eighth Army veter- ans made new gains but he'd te cut their way through Cough Nam pockets of realHlAnce.
