RICHMOND, Va, June 26.-
Charging that the OPA has no legal
authority to hold hearings leading to
possible suspension of a merchants
license to handle rationed commod-
tiles, counsel for the Country Gar
den Market, Inc, of Arlington pc
titioned the United States District
Court here today for an order tenn
porarily restraining the Federal
agency from conducting a hearing
on June 20 involving the firm.
The Country Garden Market firm
was cited by the OPA on charges
of price control violations in the
sale of fish, cheese and meats.
Counsel for the store said "the
attempt to prosecute or try the
plaintiff is in violation of his con-
stitutional rights and is without
authority in law a.. and constitutes
an unwarranted and unlawful inter-
ference with him in the conduct of
his business"
Authroity Held Lacking.
Frank L. Ball of Arlington, coun-
sci for Samuel Shanker,, head of
the firm, said the Price Control Act
nowhere gives authority for such
hearings. George Austin of Wash
ington, head of the National OPA's
special litigation section, told the
court that they are authorized
under the Second War Powers Act.
and under subsequent directives
from the President.
Counsel for the plaintiff declared
that immediate and irreparable
injury, loss or damage will result
to it (the plaintiff) if said hearing
is held on June 90 Albert Brick
Of Washington, associated with Mr..
Ball as counsel for the store, told
the court that adverse publicity
already has sent creditors rushing
to Mr.. Shanker, demanding larger
amounts than normally would have
been asked.
Action Held Premature.
MIR. Austin told the court that
the plaintiff was acting prematurely
in that no injury has been done
him and further that the hearing
may result in his being exonerated.
While the petition is only for a
temporary restraining order, counsel
for the plaintiff said they would
ask for permanent injunction.
Judge Robert M. Pollard was told
by counsel for the plaintiff that
regularly constituted courts of the
United States are the ones author
lied to try cases involving infrac-
tions of OPA regulations and that
the OPA has no right whatsoever
to hear such cases.

Administration Seen
Mapping Compromise
On Farm Price Fight
BiddIe Reported Writing
Opinion on Adding Labor
Costs to Ceilings
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
The Administration was reported
preparing today for a strategic re-
treat at some point on the agricul-
tural price front in an effort to
avoid a general assault by the con-
gressional farm bloc on Federal con-
trolls over food costs.
Attorney General Biddle was
understood to be drafting a legal
opinion defining the extent to which
increased farm labor costs should be
taken into account in establishing
price ceilings on agricultural prod
ucts.
The economic sterilization bill
passed by Congress last october di-
rected the administrative agencies
to compute these increased wartime
labor expenses to the farmer. Thus
far little was said to have been done
toward raising price ceilings &C
cordingly.
James F. Byrnes, economic stabil-
ization director, and Leon Hender-
son, former price administrator. re-
lied on an Interpretation placed in
the Congressional Record by Prem
tiSS NJ. Brown, then Senator from
Michigan and now OPA chief, that
only hired labor costs should be
taken into account.
Farm bloc members had sought
to force sharp upward revision of
the ceilings to include the time
spent by the farmer and his family
in production as well as the cost of
hired hands. This move, which
would jack up price ceilings from 10
to Is per cent, has been renewed.
While the Biddle opinion was ex-
pected to hold that only hired
labor costs should be taken into
account, it was believed likely to
furnish the basis for upward adj
justment of some food price CELL
ingS.
Whether such a partial retreat
would ease the farm bloc pressure
on the whole agricultural price
structure was problema teal but
administration leaders were said to
believe they might thus head off an
overwhelming attack.

ON THE TUNISIAN FRONT, Jan
20 Delayed The neat little village
of Bou Arada was just waking UP
when four short blasts sounded on
the lookout whistle and the Stukas
came over.
There were IA flying in trim
formation, with smaller fighting
planes circling and weaving up
above.
They are Stukas," someone cried
but others were just as certain they
were friendly.
One man was so sure they were
ours" that he cursed the anti-air-
craft gunners when the first bursts
began popping.
Then the fight leader tipped a
wing and began his dive toward the
center Of the village, and I saw no
more. I had flung myself against a
sturdy wall just as the first bomb
screamed downward.
The explosion made the earth
shudder. I imagined each succeed
ing bomb was coming closer. Final
ly the explosions ceased, and at
least two fires had been started
Less than $50 yards away a pile of
ammunition was burning. Shells
exploded among the flames.
