Ninety Billion Dollar Loss
Foced in Surplus War Stock

members of a Senate-H u e
committee who are attempting
TO work out a compromise sur
plus property disposal bill are
fully aware that there is likely
to be a $4,000, 100000 loss and
that the American people also
should be prepared for it.
Chairman of the House delega-
ton on the conference commit
tee, ManaSco said members real
lie that tremendous amount of
war goods won't be worth dis
mantling or transporting home
when the fighting stops.
Take a B-24 bomber" he
said. 1t takes 800 man-hours to
dismantie one and it couldn't
bring more than $4,000 in scrap.
And they aren't any good for
commercial airplanes because
they are too heavy and burn too
much gas"
Furthermore, he said, what
good would a costly Norden
bomb sight be to anyone? Or
who would want to buy a naval
torpedo which originally cost
thousands of dollars?
There might be a market for
some trainer planes and, among
the wealthy, for some two-mot-
ored bombers, Manasco sur
missed.
Every time the government
sells an item of surplus prop
erty, Manasco said, it is going to
step on somebody's toes. He OBJ
served that whereas 85 per cent
of surgical instruments used to
come from abroad, the domestic
industry forged ahead during
the war until the present supply
will last four years.
A question arises, he said, as
TO whether that domestic indus
try should be ruined by dumping
the four-year supply on the mar
ket.
Most Of the excess war mate
rials abroad will be sold abroad,
the Alabaman predicted, al
though we're going to run into
a lot of opposition over there"
I'VE hear a lot about having
10 feed Europe for a long WHILE"
he said. But the pictures of the
French don't look as if they are
starving, and they all look pref
~ we'll dressed.
Now we've got tremendous
stocks Of food built up in Eng
land. If we take them to France,
the French farmers will proba-
bly, kick because they'll want TO
sell their own tomatoes. And if
we bring it home and sell it our
farmers will kick"

Lightning Sets
Oil Wells Attire
at Reed City

REED CITY, Sept. s. R -
Three oil wells were set afire
here Monday by lightning caus-
ing damage amounting to sew
eral thousand dollars. The worst
blaze, at the Ohio Oil company's
Stedman well, burned violently
for nearly II hours as the oil
was fed by high pressure gas
flames.
Approximately 100 men were
employed in laying three water
lines and two lines of live steam
on the fire. Leon Provence, SUI
perintendent, reported it was a
10000 barrel daily potential
well, one of the best in the field.
Flames were quickly extin-
guished earlier in the day at the
Ohio's Sits we'll and Reed City
firemen put out fire in a 500
barrel gasoline storage tank at
the Osceola refinery. Both
flames were started by light
ming.

WASHINGTON, Sept. s. (P)
- Diplomatic quarters expect
some sort of economic action
may be taken by the United
States against Argentina rela-
lively soon.
Considered possible are a ban
on exports to Argentina, a pro-
hibition against exports from
there and a tie-up of Argentine
funds, supplementing the recent
stoppage of gold shipments to
the Latin country.
Decisions are up to Secretary
of State Hull and President
Roosevelt, but the role of the
British in future u. S.-Argentine
maneuvers is regarded as of ut
most Importance because Argen-
tina supplies much British meat
and offers large market for
British products.

Serious Polish
Crisis al Hand
ExiIes Attack Delay
in Warsaw Drive
BY JAMES F. KING

LONDON, Sept. 5 - (AP) -
Poland's exiled government
shaking in a new crisis precipi.
tated by Gen. Kazimierz Sosn.
kowskfs denunciation of Allied
failure to relieve Warsaw, called
a special cabinet meeting TODAY
Premier Stanislaw Mikolaiczyk
conferred with British Foreign
Secretary Anthony Eden lust
before the ministers met.
A spokesman said the meeting
was concerned primarily with
the plight Of Warsaw. 1t was ex-
pected, however, that the cab
met would consider advancing
the date for the proposed reor.
ganlzation of .Poland's military
direction and replacing Gen
SosnkoWski, the Polish com.
mander in chief, with a civilian
board. The general is in disfayor
in Soviet Russia.
1t was understood that the
communicating chief made his
attack without consulting the
government. He asserted that the
Allies abandoned" the patriot
army of Gen. Dor during their
month-long fight against the
Germans in Warsaw.
Sosnkowski, COMMANDMENTS
chief of Polish armed forces
made the assertion yesterday in
a message to Gen. Bors, chief OF
the underground army in Po-
land. The London News Chron-
lcle asserted that Mikolajczyk
had Immediately threatened to
resign unless his government
disavowed the statement.
Polish headquarters in London
said today that patriots within
Warsaw still were fighting. A
spokesman attributed yesterdays
report that resistance had ended
to official confusion surround
ing the German capture of the
old city" and the reshuffle OF
troops.
The News Chronicle said Sosn-
kowskis remarks were regarded
in some Polish quarters as IAN
open rebellion intended to sab
otage Mikolajczk's conciliatory
policy"
There seemed little reason to
doubt that the incident would
hasten showdown between
Mikolajczk, who has been ne
gotiating with Moscow in an eff
fort to end differences with the
Soviet government, and Sosn-
kowski, whom the Russians have
been denouncing.

1000 Romans
Shot, dubbed
to Death by Foe

ROME, Sept. 5 Up De-
claring that 800 TO 1000 Ro-
mans were shot or beaten 10
death and that 1000 more we're
severely injured during the Nazi
occupation Of Rome, the Allied
Control Commission has prom
ised that the Germans respon-
sible will be tried before a mill
tary court if they are ever found
alive.
The commission announced
yesterday that all those on the
rolls Of the German command
headquarters in the Via Tasso
would be held jointly respon-
sible for the crimes.

Stern u. S. Action Against
Argentine Expected Soon

day, the British are Sailing
their negotiations for new
meat contract, repeatedly at
Washington's urging. The exist
ing agreement expires Sept. 80.
Failure to renew will put Brit
ish purchases of Argentine meat
on a month-to-month basis and
leave London free either to sign
later or to 60 along with an
American economic breakdown.
The meat contract is the key
piece in Argentina's economic
structure and the militarist re-
gime of President Edelmiro Far
rell had counted strongly on a
PRECIPITATION renewal. Negotia-
tons to that end were going
well, it is understood, until
about two or three weeks ago.
Signs that the end of the war
in Europe may be approaching
have increased assure in
American official quarters for
some economic action to imple-
ment the political policy of nom
recognition of the Farrell regime
in force since the first of this
year.
The fall of Germany, expo
nents of such action believe, will
weaken the popular position of
the regime which came to power
after ousting a government be-
cause it broke relations with
Germany.
Another consideration, it is
said, is that the policy of nom
recognition has been advanced
primarily as war affair-Hull
having branded Argentina as a
"deserter" from the United Ma
tons cause. -
