Troy Defeats
Libby With
Il Point Margin

In a rough, tough and wild game
of what was supposed to be basket
ball, Troy won over Libby by a
margin of 10 points Friday night.
The Libby Terriers went down
fighting, but the Trojans used a
different type of basketball, SO a
bystander would at first have been
confused whether it was basketball
or a mixture of hockey. football
and soccer, with touch of basket
ball thrown in. The Libby players
took it on the chin during the first
half, but in the last half they came
out with more fight than has been
necessary in any previous game.
The score by quarters was: First:
Libby 9, Troy II; second: Libby ID
Troy Is; third: Libby II, Troy 81,
fourth. Libby IS, Troy 38.
The points made by each fol-

Challenges 0PA Plan
For Food Subsidies
Smith and FuImer
RidieuIe Proposal
For Building Surplus
BY the Associated Press.

i
Announcement that the Office
Of Price Administration intends
to subsidize food prices, starting
with butter tomorrow, brought
prompt challenge from con-
greSsiOnal farm leaders today.
The Government program, as ex-
planned by Agriculture Department
officials, is designed to build up
surplus stocks of farm commodities
during periods Of heavy production
The surplus then would be used dur
ing lean" periods.
Thus. agriculture spokesmen said.
the administration hopes to accu-
mulate stocks which will allow the
supply of butter and other foods to
flow into essential civilian markets
in addition to furnishing military
demands.
The 5-cents-a-po pound subsidy for
butter. and subsequent roll-back
prices on other foods. will be paid
out Of Reconstruction Finance Corp.
funds. The payments are authorized
by the 1912 Price Control Act which
empowers the President to validity
subsidies for strategic or critical
materials.
Chairman Smith OF the Senate
Agriculture Committee and Chair
man Fulmer Of the House Agricul-
ture Committee were quick to
rldicule the subsidy plan.
Senator Smith. an outspoken foe
OF the administrations farm policies,
said his committee would consider
tomorrow or Wednesday a proposal
TO forbid subsidy payments without
specific congressional authority,
Representative Fulmer termed the
subsidy plan ridiculous" and need
less. He plans to introduce this week
a measure creating an Office of Food
Administrator. His legislation also
would revise the OPA setup to give
fair" price margin to the farmer
the mlddleman and the retailer.
