Living Costs Due To Soar
As Price Subsidies End

Washington, D. C.-The ending of
subsidies and the subsequent lifting of
price ceiling can be expected to cause
increases of from 10 to 40 percent in
the prices of at least 81 basic foods
within the next months, it is stated in
an official survey prepared by gov
ernment economists for the Office of
Price Administration and the Depart
ment of Agriculture.
John c.. Collett, economic stabilizer,
announced that food price subsidies
will be removed gradually between
now and June 80. Congressional ac-
tion placing subsidies back on these
commodities, the economists say,
would change the situation and make
unnecessary any food price rise. Other
wise, they say, the price rise is "un-
preventable." No congressional move
is thus far known to be afoot to con-
tinue the subsidies.
The survey states that increases
will be necessary in the prices of
meats, bread, butter, milk, canned
vegetables, cheese, dried fruit and
other commodities.
The economists said the increases
will cause the highest one-year per-

Machinists Union
Suspended By AFL

Washington, D. c. (ILNS) The
international Association of Machin-
lists, biggest affiliate of the AFL, has
been suspended by the federation. The
action was taken under an AFL con-
stitutional provision for automatic
suspension for delinquency in per cap
ita tax payments.
President Harvey w. Brown of the
LAM said the suspension "came as no
surprise" to the organization's $4,000
members.
"For 71a years the jurisdiction of
the machinists' union has been made
a football for those who control the
policies of the federation," Brown
said in statement issued at Chicago.
"For a number of years the AFL
council has pursued policy directed
toward the dismembering at the ma
chinists' trade and has forced thou
sands of machinists to carry 2 union
cards, one belonging to a union which
serves no function in their trade.'
Brown said that lam had withheld
a years per capita tax payments
amounting to 100000 in waiting for
"the day that the AFL council will
agree to give the lam the same treat
ment accorded all other affiliates.'

10 Ihe Butter county PreSS:
1t seems the City Dads in Hamilton
have discovered thar is gold in them
"slot machines" called Parking Met
ers", and want 1900 dollars more of
them. Wonder who pays for them :?
Suppose the taxpayer will pay and con-
tinue paying. Is it any more fair and
Just than other schemes to get the
peoples money. The people from the
rural districts should boycott city
or town having installed them. When
city folks spend week-ends in the
country should be free, fish, hunt and
forage The folks from the country dc
not find anything free in town. Even
the air there is polluted with gas fumes
and smoke.
There is race on now to filch the
most money in the least time. Individ-
ually and collectively. There is coming
time, (oh, what's the use?) It's like
pouring water on goose's back. aim
to state facts as | see them. The truth
should harm no one. Universal graft
Beat the others to it. The people who
produce, there is some visible and
many invisible tax on everything they
buy, which reduces their daily or year
ly income, so what?
