Food Prices 10 Rise
# Subsidies Are Voted
Down, Bow|es Warns
BY the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
Price Administrator Chester
Bowles said yesterday that if
Congress prohibits subsidies to
keep retail prices down, "Ameri-
can housewives soon will be pay
ing more for certain important
foods"
The issue is clear" Mr.. Bowles
said in his first press conference
as OPA chief. There are only two
alternatives: A moderate amount of
subsidy money to hold retail prices
at present levels, or constantly ris-
ing living costs"
simultaneously, Chairman Jenkins
OF the House Republican Food Study
Committee, accused the administra-
ton of lack of foresight in failing
to encourage the raising of more
wheat and corn to help feed the
starving in foreign countries.
Instead" Mr.. Jenkins said, "the
Government is advocating subsidies.
Eighty per cent of the producers
and consumers receive no benefits
from subsidies. They benefit the
middle man."
With the subsidy battle heading
for House test November 16 in a
vote on legislation to prohibit the
Commodity Credit Corp, from paying
subsidies, Mr.. BoWles declared that
If Congress decides against the pay
ments, OPA will strive to check ris-
ing prices.
Mr.. Bowles added, however, that
without the use of subsidies food
price increases would result.
He predicted that a 5-pound rib
roast, for example, would go up in
price by % cents, while 3 pounds
of veal outlet would cost the house
wife l8 cents more than the current
price. A 15-pound ham, he added,
would go up Ct cents, butter would
increase by 10 cents a pound and
milk would cost about l cent quart
more.

We Are America
BY RUTH TAYLOR

What are the United States? Not a
mere collection of sovereign states,
each ruler of it's own destiny. Not a
federation drawn together for con-
venience in defense. or for economic
reasons.
AS Eric Johnston, President of the
United States Chamber of Commerce,
wrote: 1T is an error to describe the
United States as sovereign union of
sovereign states. 1t is the people who
are sovereign. The people of each state
give to their state government what
powers they please. They retain the
rest. The people of all the states to-
gether give to the national government
such powers as they please and retain
the rest
the American people-neither rich nor
poor: neither employer nor employee,
neither Black nor White, neither
Protestant Catholic nor Jew = but
Americans all-united under a com
mon banner which calls for equal OPP
portunity and equal Justice for all.
1t is this democratic cohesion that is
our greatest strength and greatest pro
lection. Working together as one
people, without regard to class, creed
or color. we have coordinated different
elements, people of different faiths and
different backgrounds into one common
whole-not sacrificing the good in their
paStS, but welding them together with
Il common vision of Il world of free.
dom 1t is this coheSiyeneSS, this ability
to assmilate the good and discard the
bad that has made the United States

National War Fund
Aids Anti-F dscist /
Approve Specidl Approprid.
ton For Relief Work In
Swiss Cities

New York City GLNS). - Because
of the staggering influx of refugees
into Switzerland since the downfall of
Mussoini, the National War Fund has
approved special appropriation OF
,S73,S0O for refugee relief work by the
Unitarian Service Committee in Ge-
neva and other Swiss cities, according
to Abraham Bluestein, executive di-
rector of the Labor League for HUI
man Rights and member of the Ma
tiOnal War Funds budget committee.
Even before the fall of MusSolini,
said Bluestein, the average number of
refugees to reach Switzerland was be
tween 200 and 300 daily. But in the
10 days between Sept. II and 81 alone,
it is reliably reported that u, ,S6')
civilians and $50 escaped prisoners of
war crossed the Italian border into
Switzerland. Existing relief appropria-
tiOns are insufficient for the care of
these additional refugees
1t is estimated that the overWhelm-
ing majority of these later refugees
are Italian anti-FaSciStS.
Relief work to be undertaken by
the Unitarian Service Committee will
include special medical and dental
| treatment for refugees.
From the point of view of organ
| lied labor, ,"BlueStein commented, this
| is more than merely a humanitarian
gesture. AS early as July, the Ameri
can Federation of Labor through its
relief arm, the Labor League fol
Human Rights, called for aid tt
Italian anti-Fascists wherever possible
| The National War Fund, too has gOnt
on record as favOrng such aid This
| is the first concrete action on theil
behalf by the National War Fund, ant
we hope additional aid will be forth
coming as long as the need remains.
