Ickes Freed Of Tox Blame

Chicago, Feb. 6.-(UP) Secretary of the Interior Harold l.. Ickes was absolved today of any blame for the filing of false affidavit to obtain a tax reduction on his loop prop erty, but unless he pays $4,274, the amount of the 1943 tax reduction, the property will be sold.
 William J. Tuohy, Cook county states attorney, said an investiga- tion had exonerated the interior secretary and criminal charges will not be filed against anyone.
 However, Tuohy said he would di- rect the Cook county treasurer to sell the five-story office building unless the back taxes were paid up.
 Tuohy announced his decision af- ter Mrs. Mabel Reinecke, a former collector of internal revenue, who acted as Ickes' agent in his appeal for tax reduction, appeared at his office.
 Mrs. Reinecke said that she, and not Ickes had given the 5000 rem tai figure for listing in the affida- vit, instead of the annual rental of $6,430 that the building brings. Adding that she thought the listing meant the net rental, rather than the gross.

 According to the cost estimates on file in the controllers office the city paid the Lock Joint Pipe com pany $922, ,08283 for its work in building and laying the new pipe line; and $95 1925. .99 to the Turbine Equipment company for installation of turbines in the control house at the reservoirs.
 These figures indicate that the total cost of the additional water supply project was $1. .890, ,106.06. In addition to these costs, though, Controller Maloney pointed out that there were sizeable fees paid to Malcolm Pirnie for consultation, ad- vice, and plans, as well as other items of maintenance which were properly chargeable to the projects during their construction.
 With the payment to the Defelice firm, though, he explained the final charge against the bond funds has been made. He anticipates that a small balance will be shown. which, according to provisions of the bond issue must be used for retirement of these bonds.

City Facing "Meatless" Days As Supply Dwindles

Although the city'S meat supply is lower than it has been at any time since the outbreak of the war, not one meat car had arrived up to press time today. At least six meat cars are unloaded the first two days of the week, local whole salers said today. No definite in- formation could be obtained by managers of the city's principal meat concerns when the cars might be expected.
 Because of the difficulty to ob- tain cold meats, Armour and Go. have withdrawn their two-refrig- erated trucks carrying delicatessen supplies from the road, John w. Rice, manager said today.
 Although several wholesale meat concerns have been informed sev- eral cars are tied up in the Albany section because of high snowdrifts, spokesmen of the meat firms would not venture promise that the meat shortage will be alleviated shortly. The government expects to take about 70 per cent of the better grade of beef, and although pork is usually plentiful in early spring, only 30 per cent of the normal supply is now obtainable for civilian needs.
 The severe weather of the past few weeks has also hampered fish cries, it was learned today. The supply of shellfish has been dras- tically reduced because fishermen are unable to break through the heavy ice.
 Only 10000 pounds of cod fish could be extricated from the hold of a fishing boat, laden with 100000
