The President relaxed today on restful, sprawling Reelfoot lake. Last night, smiling and happy after c big fish dinner, he announced;
 Statement
 1.-This country has no intention of sharing with any nation the secret manufacturing processes used in atomic bomb production.
 2.-Present unrest between wide segments of labor and management in this country was the natural re- suit of 8 postwar let-down. He was not worried about 1t and was con. fident that with cooperation and understanding this country would move forward to its most glorious era..
 3.-He was not worried about the international situation and, on the question of current difficulties with Russia, he cited the long-standing friendship between this country and the Soviet Union, predicting that 1t would continue.

Newhouser Vs. Borowy In CIincher
By LEO H, PETERSEN (TJnliAA Preaa an0Fta Edit0Pl

Chicago, Oct. p,-(UP) - Man. ager Charle Grimm of the Chicago Cube decided today to gamble with an old Detroit Nemesis and named Hank Borowy to pitch tomorrow in the seventh game Of the world ser. les.
 Borowy, who will be shooting for his third victory iF the post season uiAasic, will De opposed by Hal New houser, gouthpaw ace of the Tigers,
 FordhAIa Hank won fl and lost two for the Cubs after they bought him from the New York Yankees In mldseason for eiO0.O00. If he is the winning or losing pitcher he will set . record. No other pitcher has ever figured ln three consecutive series decisions. Le lost tho fifth game Sunday to NeWliouger, to {, and received credit for Ohicago'S 6 to [ i2-inning victory yesterday which evened this richest series of oil time ct three games each. Borowy had pitched the opener ct Detroit Wed. nesday, defeating Newhouser 9 to O,
 May Tie Record
 If he wins tomorrow, he would tie c record held by several pitchers with three victories in one series.
 Hard put for pitching strength, Grimm decided to 90 with Borowy rather than the veteran Paul Der. ringer, who b the only well.rested pitcher the Cubs have. He was hop. ing that Borowy once more would be able to continue the jinx he has held over the Tigers. Before Borowy was sold out of the American league he had defeated the Tigers il times while losing to them only three. So that record, with his world series de. clslons, means F'ordharn Hank has beaten the Bengals i3 times while losing to them only four times.
 Borowy was big gamble, how ever, for having pithced both Sunday and Monday he will go with only one days rest. Normally, a pitcher receives three fufii days rest be. tween starting assignments.
 Newhouser, on the other hand, has been workhorse for the Tigers

new record low. Oficials said i'm.

Disclosure OF the ban on meat
for export paralelled these other
developments on the food front:

announcing a vigorous campaign to
prevent "chiselling" in the use OF
sugar for home canning, announced
that henceforth applicants for home
canning sugar must sign ap ledge

that unfavorable spring weather in
