able-bodied men under 80 will be

Establishment of an $18 ceiling
on live cattle up to July 2, when the
top will fall to $3.50, came after
lengthy discussion between govern
ment representatives and feeders,
who declared the move would re-
suit in less choice beef because of
rising production costs. Emphasiz-
ing its desire for output of more
low grade beef, Economic Stabilizer
Vinson ordered OPA and War Food
administrator to limit choice and
good cattle slaughter for each
month.
The appeal to householders to
keep temperatures at 68 degrees,
and the order to cut off advertising
lighting, were both aimed at con-
serving fuel, what with estimated
consumption of soft coal for 1945 set
at 10000, 900 tons and production
at $50, 900, 900, with the latter figure
rejecting a reduction of $4,000 in
the mining force since 1943. Fur
thermore, the industry's stockpiles
amount to only one months supply.

PEACETIME DRAFT:

Although pledging full support for
an adequate defense program, the
Association of American Colleges
went on record as against imme-

peacetime military training for
youth because other methods have
not been fully explored and the sub
ject should be given more study
than now is possible.
Chairman of the committee draw

scription, DIR. Donald j. Cowling,
president of Carleton college, said:

Exclusive ON Farm Draft!
By Walter Shead

The farm public is unduly
alarmed over the recent directive
of War Mobilizer James F.
Byrnes subjecting 100000 agri-
cultural workers Is to 26 to in
duction in the new mobilization Of
manpower for the army and
navy, according to farm lead
ers in the nations capital.
There is no evidence, they say,
that the Selective Service COM
mission intends to nullify the
Tydings amendment to the Sc
lective Service act, which specif-
ically provides for deferment of
farm labor, if requirements are
not available, and If local draft
boards determine the workers
are more essential on the farms.
1t could be, authorities say
here, that if there are any farm
workers who have left the farm
for other work if there are
any who may be considered nom
essential, such as workers on hop
farms, or mushroom growers i.
they may be called to military
service under reclassificatiOn.

FOOD:
1915 Prospects

So far well fed Americans can
continue to look forward to substan-
tial nutritious fare in 1945 although
supplies will be below last years,
VIA Supply and Distribution Direc-
tor Lee Marshall declared.
Although there will be about the
same amount of beef, there will be
less pork, veal and lamb, Marshall
said. Poultry supplies should be
larger.
Supplies of dairy stocks will be
spotty, Marshall predicted, with
more fluid milk, enough evaporated
milk to meet essential needs, but
less butter.
Although in good supply, the vol
ume of fresh fruits and vegetables
for the next three months will not
approach last years, Marshall
said. Offsetting a slight increase in
the supply of canned vegetables for
1945 will be about IL per cent less
canned fruits and juices.
Cereal products will be plentiful
but the sugar situation will be tight,
the VIA official declared, because
of smaller reserves and increased
military requirements.

HOME FRONT:
Tighten Economy

Congressional hearings on work
or fight bill for men from Is to As
years old; imposition of an $18 cell
ing per 100 pounds on live beef
cattle; an appeal to householders to
keep temperatures at 68 degrees,
and ban on all advertising light
ing using power developed from coal
marked the government latest
moves on the home front to fit the
nation into the Tightening war
economy.
Considered after President Roose-
velt's demand for national service
act, the work or fight bill under dis
cussion provides for the induction of
any draft registrant from 18 to As
into army labor battalions if he fails
to enter essential employment or
shifts jobs without permission of
local boards. With the services plan
ming to take 100000 men within the
next six months, and with another
100000 persons needed in essential
war work plus replacements for
those drafted from industry, some
sort of legislation was held to be
the most effective way for routing
manpower in the future.
Regarding the draft, Secretary of
War Stimson said practically all

their limited offensive in Alsace on

BUDGET:
| 81 Billion Asked

Total authorizations for the war
program since 1910 will have
reached 45O billion dollars by June
30, 1916, with President Roosevelts
request for an 81 billion dollar budget
for the next fiscal year ending on
that date.
At 81 billion dollars, the Presi-
dents budget was about 13 billion
dollars below last years 100 billion
dollars, with most of the reduction
in war expenditures. Because of de-
creased war expenditures, how
ever, individuals and corporations
will receive less income and pay
less taxes, with revenue expected
to 90 down to about Al billion dol
lars. By the end of June, 1946, the
national debt will reach 292 billion
dollars, the President estimated.
Included in the Presidents budget
was a request of 21a billion dollars
for veterans benefits, which can be
expected to increase upon demobili
zation, he said, and the asking of
half billion dollars for the War
Food administration for the farm
price support program. He also re-
quested that the borrowing authori-
ty of the Rural Electrification sys-
tenn be raised to $50 million dollars
and that of the Farm Security ad-
ministration to 125 million.
