Farm Groups Divided
On Proposal 10 Drop
Parity for Poultry

Farm organizations were ait odds
today on a proposal that the Gov
ernment price support guarantee for
poultry and eggs be dropped
The Agriculture Department as
well as several members of com
gressional committees on agricul-
ture have received petition from
the Associated Poultry and Egg In
dustries, including associations; in
Maryland and Virginia, asking that
the two-year guarantee OF 80 per
cent Of parity be ended on those
products.
Eggs Now Above Parity.
The petition, according to organi-
zation spokesmen, holds that the
program is unnecessary because
eggs, for example, have been selling
at considerably above parity. 1t
contends also that a two-year pro-
gram of that kind would cause pro-
duotion of eggs and poultry far
above market needs
The Agriculture Department had
no official comment today. Its
Bureau of Agricultural Economics is
scheduled to make periodic report
within few days showing whether
poultry and egg prices are nearer
to parity than they were In October,
when the average price was more
than 100 per cent of parity.
Meanwhile, the bureaus monthly
livestock report predicted that the
beef and veal supply next spring
and summer might be the greatest
since 1909 The report stated that
hog and cattle prices were expected
to decline moderately during the
winter. and that sheep and lamb
marketings would be smaller this
winter than last. It noted that
sheep numbers were the lowest in
20 years Production of pigs next
spring will be the largest since
1943, the report stated.
Opposition Reported Aroused.
The petition on the parity pro-

aroused some opposition within the
Associated Poultry and Egg Indus
tries. 1t also was attacked by the
American Farm Bureau Federation.
That organization believes the par
ity program should be maintained
for two years as a reconversion meas
IRE and as safeguard principally
for producers Removal of the parity
provision might help dealers and
distributors but would work to the
disadvantage of poultry raisers and
farmers in general, a spokesman
contended.
The Farm Bureau Federation, he
explained, is opposed to repeal or
essential change of governmental
programs for support of prices on
any kind of farm products. It there

and Egg Industries petition even If
the proposal calls only for removal
of price support for poultry and
eggs, he said

And Industry 10 Bone

Japan would be stripped to
remnants Of her once-powerfnI
merchant f1eet and heavy indus
try under recommendations Of
Reparations Commissioner Ed
win w. Pauley.
His recommendation which Presi-
dent Truman has forwarded to
members OF the Senate Foreign Re-.
lations Committee and House For
eign Affairs Committee, are expected
to form the basis Of United States
policy Id consultations with other
Allies on Japanese reparations next
month.

for Japan's economy after the rep
arations removals proposed by Mr..
Pauley were disclosed last night,
following the release several days
ago OF summary of his recon-
fnendatiof1s on what the Allies
should take.
Assets Left to Japan.
Under his plan, Japan would be
reduced to:
!. A merchant fleet OF only 1900,
900 tons, with no ships over 5000
tons or faster than II knots, and
restricted to trading in the Far
East.
2. No plants whatever for the

tions equipment and petroleum re-
fifling facilities.
Based on a policy OF severity COM
bined with frrnness," Mr.. Pauley's
recommendations are intended to
make 1t impossible for Japan ever
again to dominate East Asia econoni-
ically, and at the same time to
provide victims Of Japanese aggres-
sion with badly needed equipment.

share of industrial equipment taken
from Japan as reparations.

Big Four al Showdown
On YugosIav, Greek
Reparations Shares
BY tn. Associated Pres.

NEW YORK, Nov. 29.Cheered
by the possibility Of completing
their peace making here in an
other week, the Big Four For
eign Ministers reached show
down today on Russia's demand
that Yugoslavia be given a
greater share than Greece in
reparations to be paid by Italy
and Bulgaria.
The Council was moving along at
top speed Some diplomats specu-
lated it might wind up the final
satellite peace treaty drafts and
agree on a German peace study by
a week hence.
A final compromise on the issue
between Russia and the Western
powers over free navigation on the
Danube River seemed to be almost
in hand.
A committee of deputies was as
signed to summarize the relatively
few open questions remaining in
the Italian peace treaty. Among
these unsettled points the dispute
over reparations ranked first. It
was given priority for today's Big
-Four session at pm. The issue is
dificult because it involves the old
contest between Russia and Britain
for position in Southeastern Europe.
Molotov Backs Yugoslavia.
Italy, according to recommends
tions of the Paris Peace Conference,
is supposed to pay total of $685.
900 900 in reparations-$25, 900 900 to
Ethiopia and 500, ,000, 900 each to
Russia, Yugoslayia and Greece.
Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov,
champion of Yugoslavis,s cause, has
repeatedly attacked the idea that
Greece, backed by British Foreign
Secretary Bevin, should receive a
payment equal to that of Yugoslavia.
His contention is that Yugoslavia
deserves to receive more because~of
her war record and experiences
In the case of Bulgaria, Greece
and Yugoslavia are supposed to di-I
vide equally $l25, ,000, 900. Mr.. Molo-
tovis argument here is for reduc-
ton in the total amount, with Yu-
goslavia to get twice as much as
Greece.
Diplomats looked to today's meet
ing, however, for fresh evidences OF
the new spirit of conciliation and
concession mostly on the part of
MIR. Molotov- which has marked
the several session held since Mr..
Molotov and Secretary of State
Byrnes conferred privately early
this week
Asks Declaration OF Policy.
This new approach, having al
ready smashed the deadlock over
Trieste, was evidenced again at last
nights meeting when Mr.. Molotoy
suddenly put up proposal that the
Big Four issue outside the Bull
garian, Romanian and Hungarian
peace treaties declaration of policy
for free navigation on the Danube.
Mr.. Byrnes said the Soviet sug-
gestion would be satisfactory if it
could be included in the treaty texts.
MIR. Molotov said he would have to
give that more thought. Mr. Byrnes,
meanwhile, tentatively agreed to
leave out of the treaties a parallel
provision that within six months
after formal peace is restored to
the Baiakns donation Danube
conference should be held to create
an international regime for admin
istration of river business.
