Milk SHORTAGE

SACRAMENTO, Feb. 17-CUP)-
State Agriculture Director w. j.
Cecil today declared that the re-
cently-announced Office of Price
Administration ceilings on milk
prices to producers will result in
"ceflnite" milk shortages in South
ern California, especially in Los
Angeles.
Cecil has just returned from
washington where he conferred
with OPA and Department of Ag-
riculture officials and members of
the California congressional dele
cation. The milk producer price
ceilings, based on January prices,
were announced while he was in
the capital
SQUEEZE FELT HERE
The squeeze on producers will be
particularly bad in Los Angeles,
San Diego and Imperial marketing
areas, Cecil said, because the state
department of agriculture had
authorized producer price increases
there in February. Consequently,
he said, the freeze in those areas
amounts to a roll back" in price.
The lowered prices, Cecil said,
will accelerate the slaughter of
milk cows and will encourage
sloppy" feeding of dairy stock,
with result in both cases of lowered
production. He pointed out the
slaughter of cows already has in
creased nearly so per cent in the
past year
Cecil said the situation was less
serious in Northern California be-

OTHER THINGS TO DO
Referring to the proposed 24-hour

other plants in protest against the
WLB's alleged delay in settling the
case, Hewitt said that what those

plenty of other things to do"
WLB members said yesterday
after an all-day discussion of the
case they they would take it up
again today, although they did
not expect to reach a decision until
next week.
Congressional pressure for anti
strike legislation mounted as the
board continued its consideration
of the case. The board rebuked
Boeing employees for their work
stoppage threat and said the WLB
would not be high-pressured into an
immediate decision
Eight major airplane companies
in Southern California are affected
by the case at issue in addition to
Boeing. The WLB has had the

I rode Flying Fortress into the

helmshaven naval base in North
west Germany yesterday.
For two hours I sat through a
vicious gun duel with twisting and
turning Focke Wulf 100 fighters
and held tight while we lodged
savage anti-aircraft fire. My re-
ward was to see American bombs
falling toward German soil.
LUCK WITH U.s.
Luck was with us and our Fort
resseS came through the torrent
without damage. Other formations
caught the brunt of the fighter
blows and we saw Fortresses and
Liberators plucked from the flights
around us. Altogether, seven planes
are missing
We knocked out our share of
fighters, and as we swept back
over the North Sea we saw great
pillars of smoke pluming from the
target area.
1t was the first time correspond
ents had been permitted to accom-
pany the Flying Fortresses or Lib
orators on any of their raids over
Germany or occupied France. Eight
reporters had qualified to go, but

From Dutch West Indies

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.
UP) Congressional reac-
ton to disclosure that Spain
is obtaining large petroleum
supplies from this side of
the Atlantic ranged today from
cries of "appeasement" to any
thing to keep Spain out of the
war"
The disclosure was made yester-
day by us. Ambassador Carlton j..
H. Hayes in Barcelona. He said in
a speech that the amount of Amer
ican petroleum products available
to Spain is considerably larger
than the present per capital dis
tribution to people along the At

Official sources here were quick
to explain that the petroleum prod
ucts Hayes was talking about came
from the oil-rich Dutch West In
dies-not from the United States
and were transported to Spain in
Spanish tankers. Moreover, they
said, this country is watching
closely to see not only that these
products do not get into Axis hands
but also that they are used solely
for civilian purposes.
The State Department had no
comment until it has seen Hayess
text.
Petroleum sources said the Oil

ty could find its way to General

a time when petroleum products
for civilian consumption are so
scarce in this country.
Representative Dewey Short, Re-

statement showed that the admin

Spain by furnishing them with oil
