Ten Groeers Charged
With Violations
In Apple Sales

The ONCE of Price Administra-
ton filed suits in District Court to-
day against 10 retail grocery deal
ers, charging violation of OPA reg
ulations in dealing in apples, and
one against wholesale onion
dealer, charging sales of onions
above ceiling prices and failing to
keep proper records All the suits
seek tnjunctions to prevent any fu-
ture violations.
OF the suits dealing with apples
eight of them charged violation OF
ceiling prices and failing to keep
proper records and two charged fail
ure to keep proper records.
The wholesale onion dealer Is list
ed as Harry Silverfarb, for whom
addresses are given as 1884 Fifth
street NE. and 1929 Park road NV
Two Offenses Charged.
The complaint alleges two sales
OF onions, one at $6 and $3.50 per So
pound sack. The proper ceiling
price, it is said, would have been
$3.05 for 50-pound sack.
John L. Laskey, District OPA en-
1orcement attorney, announced that
a warrant has been issued by the
United States attorneys Office in
connection with the over-ceiling
sales of onions.
In connection with the apple sales,
Mr.. Laskey, who filed the suits, said
that the ceiling price for apples is
% cents for 2 pounds and in one
instance as high as "a cents a pound
had been charged.
Mr.. Laskey said that particular
attention would be given to the re-
tail apple ceilings and that the
price panels of the local price and
rationing boards are being asked to
report all violations in connection
with apples. MIR. Laskey empha-
sized that requirement of posting
the ceiling prices is an important
feature in enforcing price control
regulations.

TACTICS EXPLODE THEORY
OF IMPASSABLE WAR WALLS

Russia more especially. and the COM
bined I S and British forces have
shown Hitler MS bl0nder in pinning faith
Oh so-ealled impfsgnable walls. He should
have learned from the other war that
there IS no such thing in war Even the
walls Of Jerieo in Biblical times could
not Withstand assaults b. superior
forces. And the very fact that he did not
even have 10 try TO break the Marginot
line 70 occupy France should have indi-
Gated that he was only fooling himself
when he boasted that he had built battle
walls" both east and west that forever
would stall any foe.
Today not single one Of these walls re-
main even d ghost Of defense for Hitler.
For months before the allied invasion
struck France the world had heard
through every propaganda channel avail
able TO Hitler that the West Wall, sup
posedlY stretching from Denmark 10 the
south tip of France would resist any
force the allies could muster. That wall,
now is only myth as are the Rommel
walls in North Afrida.
But it was in Russia that the conquer
ing Hitler placed all his faith in walls.
Once the MuscOvites got a footing and
started turning the enemby back, nothing
these defenses have crumbled as if they
never existed, which in reality was true.
The wall Kharkov; the Dnieper, the KieV
they are less than landmarks. The
Prut river wall in Romania vanished like
vapor as did the Gustav and the Hitler
walls in Italy. If any wall had chance
TO be formidable defense line it was the
Gustav wall There the mountainous
terrain was perfect for establishing an
actual wall. It is a memory too.
The simple fact is that Hitler never
conceived of the gigantic air power the
allies could muster nor the terrific sham
bles it could make of any earthly wall.

MOVE TO PUSH WATER
TREATY IS IN OFfING

Evidence is leaking out that definite
move to put through the secretly prepar-
ed treaty with Mexico on ALLEGATION Of
water from the Colorado is scheduled as
soon as congress reconvenes next month.
1t behooVes those who are on the watch
and who are prepared to battle approval
10 the limit to be on the alert. If there
was any idea TO permit the matter to rest
until after election, recent events appear
to upset that notion and the lull in the
fight during congress recess well might
be used as an advantage by proponents
and hackers of the pact.
Most recent Of the signs of early re-
yival Of the program to force senate rati-
fication is seen in a visit last week to the
State Department by the Mexican for
eign minister, DIR. EZequiel Padila. His
oVer-eagerness to announce belief in its
ratification tipped the hand of the ad-
ministration.
Nothing came from Secretary Hull
after he had conferred with the minister,
but EZequiel was not so mum He open
ly expressed the opinion that early rat-
fication could be expected and since con-
gfess will not reconvene for three weeks.
il can be interpreted no other way than
Hull plans to force the treaty out Of
committee and onto the floor of the
senate.
The Mexican minister is we'll schooled
IN recitlng that the treaty has 10 do with
division of waters Of the Rio Grande and
the Colorado. As matter of fact the
diversion is TO come from the Colorado
to the advantage of the Texas farmers.
Imperial Valley and other sections in
the state and Arizona will not be caught
mapping.

CONSTANTLY CHANGING

The house is constantly chang
ing. more so than one might think,
until you consider the size, the ages.
the strain of the job. Deaths aver
age more than one a month. The
figures mean in many cases the
occupations when elected. as they
show in the congressional directory.
Congressman Poulson points out
that the southern states, the Old
South as we say in the congress,
are represented principally by at
torneys. The most farmers are
from Illinois, three of them; the
most businessmen are from New
York, l3. The western and middle
states have the greatest diversity
in classifications in their delega-
tionS.
Poulson's comment on the south
ern states is interesting. One OF
the things a new man in the pres
ent congress notices Immediately Is
that so many of the committee
chairmanships are held by members
from the south. That is because
the south elects a man to congress
and keeps him there indefinitely.
He acquires experience and he ad-
vances step by step in influence on
his committee and in many in
stances to the craftsmanship, under
the seniority rule. This is to the
great advantage of the south. The

Indifference TO automobile and tire con-

understood from an analysis made by l.
B. Allen. director of the association
road tour. He points out that there were
100000, 900 tires in use on passenger cars
when war was declared by the United
States. Each had normal life of three
years. On this basis, there should be
available annually some 45,O00,OO0 tires
for replacement. however, no passenger
car tires were made in 1912 for civilian
use and only about 100000 in l943.
Even with the growth of manufacture

CORRECTION AT LAST
(Santa Ana RegisterD

At long last the Office of Price Admin
istration has admitted that the highest
price line limitation order is responsible
for the disappearance of low-price cloth
ing from retail shelves. The OPA ad-
ministrator says frankly that much of
the shortages could have been eliminated,
IF we in the OPA and other agencies had
been on our toes
Congressional, public and distributor
demands are finally forcing reconsidera-
ton of obviously unworkable price rules.
Meanwhile consumers have been con-
scious of dwindling supplies of low-priced
wearing apparel. Moreover, according
to the OPA consumer advisory commit
tee. "the quality of many items is so low
as to be wasteful of manpower and ma
tarials'
The public can forgive mistakes but 1t
will not excuse stubborn refusal to make
corrections.
The magazine Newsweek observed that
"even if more low-priced clothes are made
available. they are bound to cost more
than the same items did before the war
despite the OPA's struggle to hold prices
down. Labor and material costs have
gone up and these cannot be absorbed by
the manufacturers or the merchants"
