BUTTER SITUATION
GETS WORSE DAILY

Have you tried TO get any buteer lately,
presuming, of course, that you have the
necessary 16 points in red stamps
Chances are you have been disappont-
ed in your quest of the elusive yellow
spread a number of times And if you
were lucky enough to find some you were
probably limited TO a quarter Of pound
or half pound at the most.
Who is to blame for this scarcity? Is
IT natural result of war difficulties,
sending Lend-Lease supplies to other
countries or building up a reserve supply
for the armed forces? No. The blame
can be placed squarely on the shoulders
Of home front officials in Washington.
Months ago the boys in the easy chairs
were warned of what has now come to
pass. Dairynen complained that ceiling
prices Of their products had been set too
low by comparison with the prices they
were forced to pay for feed, labor and
other essentials.
Even that long ago they began selling
choice herds of dairy COWS to the slaught-
erhouses.
Instead of taking quick action to cor
rect the situation the officials went to
work on an unsatisfactory subsidy pro-
gram. Only now, six months after the
danger was revealed, have dairymen been
able to get subsidies.
In the meantime the slaughtering con-
tinued until now the number of good
dairy cows in the country has been de-
pleted seriously instead OF being built up,
as ii should have been, to take care of the
extra burden Of exports.
The OPA, which refused to give in to
the mounting pressure from farm groups,
was forced to raised the ration value of
pound of butter from eight to 16 points
to spread the diminishing product even
farther
The situation will continue to grow
worse instead Of better if suitable action
is not taken in the near future. A raise
in the ceiling price Tor butter and other
farm products seems the only alternative
to complete destruction of the dairy in
dustrv which is one of Imperial Valleys
chief industries

NO POSTWAR
BOONDOGGLING

(Redlands Daily Facts)
Dir Benjamin Higgins, of the National
Bureau of Economic Research, has add
ed some wise words to the increasingly
discussed subject of postwar planning.
He advocates planning now a siX-year
program of needed and useful public
works as insurance against boondog-
Cling"
Some sort of publc-works employ
ment is inescapable in the reversion to
peace time living. 1t is a reversion that
promises to be painful and laborious,
And though a siX-year program may
seem pessimistic, no one who remembers
the shovel-leaning and leaf-raking days
of the early depression will doubt the wis
dom of well-prepared, long-range plan.

PROSECUTORS.
BRITISH STYLE

(San Francisco Chronicle)
Americans following the Oakes' trial
at Nassau in the Bahamas found some
thing novel in the prosecutors opening
statement to the jury. He stated the
whole case, not merely the case for the
prosecution. This is part of an import
ant difference between American and
British criminal procedure. The Bahia
mas, of course, as a crown colony, follow
the English rule.
The British prosecutor is, in the full
est sense, an officer of the court, like
judge and jury, there solely to get at
the truth and do justice. His function
is not conceived to be to convict at all
odds. Evidence in the defendants favor
must be as important to him as evidence
against. He is entitled to question it,
but only fairly and for the sole purpose
of bringing out its true weight. He is
not entitled, and the court would not
permit him to suppress evidence for the
accused
AS the defendants council is on SINH
lar footing, the trial does not become a
game in which either side is determined
to win by any tactics it can get away
with. As the court will not permit them
to get away with anything but fairness,
neither side tries anything else.

If this reaches The papers day
later than the usual arrival tliile'
il will be because of the situation
here.
In last weeks column, I showed
how the OPA mind works. NOW let 5
see why it works that way. we TURN
to the same transcript.
Bv congressional action, the war
Food Administrator is the agency
to make certain decisions ABOUT
food production. The chairman
asks: who presented it tthe plan)
10 the office of War Food Admins
tration?" Mr.. BroWnlee answers
that the four of them presented IT,
CThe four wise men from the east!'
The Chairman asks: Did the Oh
flee of War Food Administration
agree TO it?"
Mr.. Brownlee: mo sir.
The Chairman: Did they oppose
it?"
MIR. Brownlee: yes sir
Nevertheless, the plan was I'M
posed upon the meat industry.
ANALYZE TESTIMONY
But why the hurry to announce
it? Turn to the transcript. Let's
boil down several pages OF testl-
mony: The OPA had regulations
affecting the marketing OF meat
you've heard me on these before.)
A small packing company contend
ed that the regulations would put
them out of business, if followed
and that this was against the in
tentions and the provisions OF the
price control laws. This is the Nagle
case, about to be decided in the en-
ergency court. The OPA attorneys
who wrote the regulations, told the
four wise men that the OPA would
lose the case.
A member of the committee asks
Let me ask this question. Are the
attorneys who now tell you that

GREAT TRIUMPH
Sacramento Bee)

(SacramentO Bee)
No past or future triumph in the war
will be sweeter to our Russian allies
than the recapture Of Dnepropetrovsk.
For this city, with her great dam and
power plant, had been a symbol of the
forward progress of the Soviet Union
She epitomized for the Russian people
the realization of great dream and also
stirred their imaginations with visions
Of a greater Russia yet to be achieved
They destroyed the dam when they lost
the city in 1941.
Now they can see the dawnng of the
day when it can be rebuilt and once more
her mighty resources put to the service
Of peaceful industry.
The guns which sounded in Moscow
over this victory must have provided
notes more inspiring than even the mu-
sic Of the spheres.

Motorists Sure
OF Gas Supply

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 10 CUP)
Motorists in the five western
states will not have gasoline sup
plies curtailed by the petroleum
administration for vars order re-
stricting deliveries of gasoline to
distributors, provided non-essential
driving is eliminated, survey in
dicated today.
The PAW order, limiting dealers
to 83 per cent of their average
supply during August and Septem-
ber, was based on earlier directives
to refineries curtailing civilian de-
liveries in line with the recent re-
duction of gasoline ration coupons
from four to three gallons, indus
try representatives explained.

Rise TO Remark

vau haven't q leg to stand ON. the
same ones who drew up the order
and the regulations in the lirst
place. .,
DR.. Gilbert: THAT is right"
It is brought out that the order
is not being made under any law,
but under q directive The chair
man asks: You did that because
YOU were advised that the regula-
tions would not stand up in a
court by the same attorneys VINO
drafted the regulation. Is that cor
rect?" Dr.. Gilbert replies again,
That is correct
TALK TO JUDGE
The chairman then brings out
the fact that the attorneys for the
OPA. have had a confidential talk
with the Judge who is trying the
Nagle case, are convinced that the
opinion will be against them ana
consequently the OPA is hurrying
this change in regulations so it will
be announced and in effect before
the decision is actually handed
down. Now isn't that honey?
l would be glad to send printed
COPY of all this testimony relative
to meat, to anyone interested. The
testimony a few days later regard
ing citrus prices and regulations IS
even more interesting than on
meat. I'll tell you some of that
next week. In the meantime, the
War Food Administration and the
representatives of all parts of the
citrus industry, and of all citrus
states, have agreed on plan for
marketing the present crop. Un-
fortunately the OPA doesn't like
that plan, so it has substituted its
plan. The committee on agriculture
passed a resolution yesterday ap-
proving the VIA plan. Hold your
breaths, we'll probably get the OPA
plan any minute.
