Meat To Reds ToContinue
By RUTH GMEINER

WaShlngCon, July l2-(UF)-Ine U. s. Army will stop supplying food to civilians in liberated Europe on Aug. 3l, it was learned today.
 The action will save millions of dollars for American taxpayers. But it is not expected to mean more food for civilians because the pur- chase and distribution of American food probably will continue at about the same level by the liberated gov- ernments themselves.
 At the same time it was disclosed that the United States, contrary to earlier announcements, would con- tinue Lend-Lease shipments of meat to Russia during July, August and September.
 The newly approved food alloca- tions for the Eoviet includes 25,O00,- 900 pounds of meat in the form toshonka, a canned pork and beef combination. No other U. S. meat will go abroad during the three months period except to the armed forces.
 Other scheduled Russian ship ments are 25,000, 900 pounds of flour. 5,000.00o pounds of butter or other oil. 2,000, ,000 pounds of cheese, A. 100000 pounds of dry peas, 2,500, 900 pounds of dehydrated vegetables and 2,000, 900 pounds of dried milk.
 Agriculture Department officials said the Russians had requested 430,000 tons of food for the last six months of 1945. The approved three-month allocations amounts to less than 30,O0O tons.
 The II. S. Army has handled ap- proxinately half all food shipped from this country for European civ- ilians but has been gradually relin- pushing the relief job since early spring. The Army estimates that 1t has distributed more than $700,- 100000 worth of goods, mostly food, in Europe during the past two years.
 The Army stopped feeding of French civilians on April. 30. In the Balkans the relief job was turned over to the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Adminis- tratfon at the end of May. Present plans are to halt the relief programs in western Europe. including Bel giun, Holland, Luxembourg and Norway, at the end of August.
 Relief foods still will be supplied by the U. S. in its contributions through UNRRA. American food also will be distributed in Italy by the Foreign Economic Administra- tion.

TO. . FRANCE OFFSET
 BY COAL CRISIS

Paris s(UP)-France has, so far been unable to make full use, of the extensive lend-lease supplies from the United States because of Europe's Number one problem the shortage of coal.
 Lack of coal is threatening to disrupt entirely the already shat tered French economy, which will bring suffering to millions next winter. a
 The Ministry of National Pro- duction told the United Press that the French textile industry is operating at only 30 per cent of capacity because of the coal short age, and a further IS per cent re- duction in production is threaten ed by what appears will be another 50 per cent cut in coal supplies in the near future.
 French civilians already have been reduced to making clothes out of curtains, and on the basis of the present situation it appears like they will continue to do so for at least another winter even though American raw materials are already on hand to alleviate the situation.
 Prisoners and deportees recent ly demonstrated in Paris because they have to Jay $200 for suit of clothes. Miners have struck for more food and bigger wages.
 In an effort to combat the situa- tion the French government has promised the miners more rations and ordered a boost of 9 per cent in their wages. In addition, the government plans to place 35,000 German prisoners in the mines and is negotiating for the use of the Saar and Rhur. French technicians are already with the Americans in that area surveying the situation.
 While increased shipping space is being allotted to delivery of Amer ican raw materials for France, gov- ernment officials ruefully admit that this won't do the French much good until the coal problem is licked.

 London, July 12-(UP)-Lt. Gen Wladyslaw finders today ordered his 50,0oo Polish soldiers in Italy to re- main loyal to their discarded London government-in- exile and resist all "enemy" attempts to lure them back to Poland
 In biting order of the day issued to the Polish second army corps. An- ders reiterated his support of the London regime and denounced the action of Britain and the United States in recognizing the Polish pro- visional government in Warsaw.
 He told his troops, who are under the British supreme command and paid by British funds, that they must remain a closely-knit, militant body until conditions inside Poland are changed.
 finders order of the day was made public in London by the Polish forces press bureau, which received it from the general in Rome.
 All our basic rights as a nation are being wiped out" he said in di- rect reference to the Big Three agreement establishing the warsaw coalition government.
 ''The powers of the world trample over our constitution and over our rightful authorities. For the tenn porary sake of convenience, they ac- cept fait accompli which was i'm posed on Poland by foreign might"
 finders declared that the contin- ued existence of the Polish Army is "an eyesore to our enemies and he warned his troops that an effort will be made to destroy" them.
 ''An of us will be the object of attack through their (the 'enemiesD insidiouS agitation. he said. They will call on us for a so-called free return to our country-a return which we know is cloaked with un- certain consequences"
 finders criticized the British gov- ernment for withdrawing broadcast ing and other propaganda privileges from the disaccredited Polish re- gime in London.
 Our legal Polish authorities" he said, have been deprived of all means of public relations serving the Polish cause ."
 His order of the day was issued barely 24 hours after Maj. Gen. Kle- mems Rudnicki, commander of the First Polish Armored Division. att tackled the new Warsaw government and declared that his troops would return to Poland "only with arms in our hands"
 Rudnicki's division is attached to the British occupation forces in Northwestern Germany, but author itative sources believed it highly un- likely that the British war office would take any disciplinary action against him.

Discuss Planning

Soil conservation and county
planning were topics of discussion
at a meeting Friday night in
Kennewick of the Lewis and Clark
chapter of the Northwest: Conser-
walton league. Members Of the
Soil Conservation bureau were
present and led q discussion on
that subject and showed q film
based on controls Of soil in the
southeast. They pointed out that
similar problems are involved
locally.
Two county planning board
members reported that the county
had passed an ordinance which
provided the machinery for setting
up rural coming plans. They urged
an educational program which
would show the value of such
planning to rural residents.
Plans for the protection Of SAGA
jawea park following the construc-
ton Of the Umatilla dam were
discussed. The group favored the
plan for raising the level Of the
park rather than the construction
of dykes.

that residents of this area control
a fear of epidemic. But be on
the alert. If any Of the known
symptoms appear in any member
of your family, don't hesitate to
consult your doctor. Remember,
the disease has been misnamed
''infantile." But it is no respecter
of ages. Don't worry about the
cost Of medical care. All cases Of
polio will be treated alike. The
county has some funds from pre-
.vious drives. This will be sup
plemented as needed by the ma
tional foundation.
And when the time comes to
give, be generous.

Polio

Polio
Polio, commonly called infan-
tile paralysis, is attacking near
at hand. A number of cases are
being treated in Yakima county.
Five attacks have been reported
in Prosser.
Strangely this has always been
known as a late summer dis
ease. Now even winter does not
bring immunity. Further, little
is known as to the cause which
makes prevention difficult job.
There is no known anti-toxin, no
vaccination, no shot in the arm
which will protect against its
ravages.
Fortunately the ailment is not
necessarily fatal nor is its effect
always lasting. Treatment, espe-
cially in its early stages, brings
response.
What can you do about it?
You will have an opportunity
after the first Of the year to do
your part. At that time the an
nual March of Dimes campaign
will start, eliminating with the
observance of the late President
Roosevelt's birthday on January
80. It is to be hoped that OBJ
servance will be continued in
honoring a man who himself had
been stricken with the dread dis
ease and conquered it by strict
adherence to treatment methods
coupled with a will to be cured.
There will be other benefit
affairs for this cause. Dimes will
be collected in the schools and
among other groups. Larger con-
tributions will be gladly accepted.
For the fight against polio is ex-
pensive.
In the meantime we suggest
