(ContiI1ued from Page D Government : owned machinery ir Hartford was removable" and therefore did not fall within the high court classification.
 The difference between ma chinery classified as real and personal" is shown in the recent question raised by the Water- bury Tool Company regarding lend products made for the Government and taxed by MT. JenkS.
 The company, division ot Vickers Inc. claimed that the pro- ducts were made for the Govern ment under Government contract and therefore were owned by the Federal authorities.
 MT. Jenks and the Board of Tax Review refused to consider this, claiming that the products were still owned by the Water- bury Tool Company because they were still in the company'S possession at the time of re- valuation climax (June 1) and would not be tax free until they had been shipped to and paid for by the Government. The company does not plan to contest the issue, authorities there said last week.
 Almost all local plants possess DPC property. This was equipment shipped to these plants for war time production expansion.

|0PA Experts  Rotioning
 Early Decision
 On PFogrom Asked
 v Government
By Govern nnent

washington, May lz-(UP)-OPA officials reported today that the United States must make an early decision on whether to resume food rationing.
 OPA experts disagree sharply with former President Hoover that there stiII would be time to decide after the world has . chance to measure its 1046 har- vest against its food needs. OPA officials pointed out that il would take many weeks to print ration books and set up other ra- tion machinery. They feel that il the D. s. waits until the harvest Is completed in September, it would be too late for rationing to be oi maximum help.
 Even under the Governments present strict grain conservation program, this county will have taken a big bite out of its 1946 production for human COnsump- ton.
 Other food developments:
 1. Sen. Clyde M. Reed, R.- Kans.), predicted American housewives would be ''pinched for bread" within 90 days unless millers were permitted to conn., pete with the Government in buying wheat.
 2. Am Agriculture Depart ment spokesman said it was planned all along for milIers to run out of flour. He said that would force bakers to fall back on their inventories, freeing more wheat for export. He said most bakers had flour for . month or more. {.
 5. Mir. Hoover scheduled meeting today with the Presi- dents Famine Emergency Com n1ittee, presumably to outline the more vigorous" voluntary food saving steps necessary for the United States to meet the present sh0rt-range food crisis. StabiizatiOn Director Chester BOwles also was to attend.
 {. Administration sources conceded MT. HOOver's program for meeting the worlds food needs until September meant the U. s. was retreating from its original export goals. They pointed out, however, the pro- gram was being extended two more months.
 5. Rep. Thomas A. Jenkins, R.-O -OhiO), said rationing may be necessary because the Ad- ministration failed to increase food production. He said ration ing would not increase the worlds food supply but merely would distribute scarcity"
 6. The Agriculture Depart ment said its grain bonus plan -On which it had pinned its hopes of drawing 113,OOO, 900 bushels Of export wheat off U. s. fsrms-had yielded only 2S.447,9 ,906 bushels of wheat and 3l,17S,311 bushels of corn through May 2.
 MT. Hoover issued one of thu grimmest famine warnings yet last night when he told the American Agriculture Editors Association that 300OO0,OOO people would face death if the flow of goods overseas were cut off. He said 800, 900, ,OOC people faced hunger.
 He said he still was confident the threat could be met through voluntary methods, however, if the farmer turned in his grain under the bonus program, and if the housewife conserved every possible bit of food and food in trade channels was controlled.

creasing percentage of the annual
lump SUM granted the National Cap

Dutch Schultz Associate Says
He Helped Connors Steal Car

1T doesn't make any difference to
me-" the witness said.
Mr.. Laughlin then asked him if he
put the finger" on Dutch Schultz.
who was slain in New Jersey saloon
by gangland rivals.
That's ridiculous" McEneaney
said.
The witness said that, except for
tending bar in a New York tavern
for eight months, he had not worked
in six years.
"You have bookmaking busi-
ness?" Mr.. Laughlin asked.
"Oh, yeah" the witness said.
"a prosperous one?"
Every prosperous"
At one point McEneaney reproved
the attorney for being vague.
BE more explicit if you don't
mind" he said.
The prosecution of Connors, Mr.
Laughlin said in his opening state
ment yesterday, was due to a gang
land rumor about Schulz death
The story went around, the defense
counsel said, that it was McEneaney
who put the finger" on Dutch
Schultz.
McEneaney found this rumor very
embarrassing. according to Mr.
| Laughlin, and he blamed it on Con-
nors. To do away with Connors
Mr.. Laughlin said, McEneaney wrote
an anonymous letter to the police
informing them that it was Connors
who had killed Mr.. Baker and Mr.
Casbarian. That, said the lawyer,
was how the whole case started.
Most of yesterday in court was
taken up with handwriting testi-
mony by DR.. Wilmer Souder, hand
writing expert of the Bureau of
Standards, in an attempt to link
Connors with the pawning OF dia-
mond which, the prosecution con-
tends, was taken from a ring worn
by Mr.. Barker on the night of Feb
ruary %, when he was shot and
killed in his used car lot on Four
lteenth street.
