Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1943-07-06

WASHINGTON, July 6 (INS)
The OPA yesterday authorized
all government agencies 10 pur-
chase corn on an adjustable basis
TO protect farmers from financial
loss if they sell corn at the
present ceiling price OF $f07 a
buShel
Al the same time, the Senate
agriculture committee voted 10
recommend passage of resolu-
ton breaking the Sl07 ceiling
price by authorizing sale of corn
up 10 S140 a buShel.
Both actions came as federal
authorities sought desperately TO
shake loose an estimated 800, 000,-
900 bushels of the surplus grain
now being withheld by farmers
and vitality needed TO keep corn
processing plants turning out
essential war and civilian supplies.
The corn squeeze" has been
caused, government authorities
agreed, both because the farmer
has found IT more profitable 10
feed his own hogs and livestock
with his corn than 10 sell 1t at
S107, and because some growers
have preferred TO hold their
stocks in hopes of higher prices
later in the year.
Under the OPA plan, any
farmer who sells his corn TO a

THE STORY so FAR: Ann Lee and
Cole Cody, beneficiaries under two identi-
cal wills of Old Bill Cole, sought to dis
cover who had fred the fatal bullet
at Old Bill. Suspicion centered around
Rance Waldron, who, posing as Old Bills
nephew, was living at the ranch when
Ann and Cody arrived. Doc Joe and
the Judge, commissioned by Old Bill to
carry out his last wishes, were waylaid
and shot by Rance Waldron. Believing
both men dead, and to divert suspicion,
Rance killed his accomplish, Tom Cough.
But Doc Joe did not die, and he was at
the ranch to lend a hand when Cole Cody
decided to lick Rance Waldron, who gave
up almost at once.
Now conclude the story.

Hard to Stomach

The smallest member of the
United States senate was Georgia'S
Alexander H. Stevens, later vice
president of the Confederacy. He
was less than five feet tall and
weighed somewhat under 80
pounds.
One day an out-sized western
congressman, stung into a fury by
the barbed remarks of the little
Georgian, shouted: You! You!
Why, l could swallow you and
never know I'd ct thing!"
Replied Senator Stevens: "In
that case you'd have more brains
in your belly than you ever had
in your head"

Hooked Fish

Fish suffer little if any pain
when they are hooked, for there
are very few nerves about the jaw
which could cause the sensation of
pain. Some trout have been known
to be hooked two or three times
in the same day-by anglers using
the same type of bait.

tobacco. An increase Of So hun

Although prices are higher in
