Meat Prices Called Blow ToU.S. Buyer
 CIo Says Ceilings
 Show Anderson
 Unfit for Office

Washington, Aug. 29-tUP)-The CT. o. denounced the new livestock price ceilings today as disastrous blow" to the American people and tacitly called for the custer of Sec retary of Agriculture Clinton P. An- derson.
 Chairman John Thornton of the c. I. O.'s Cost of Living Committee charged that Anderson yielded to pressure of livestock interests when he ordered ceilings which will make -oon- to-be restored retail beef pric- es 5 1-2 cents a pound and pork Z 1-2 cents higher than June 30 levels.
 we believe Anderson's reckless step demonstrates his unfitness for office" Thornton said. Tt climaxes 9 long series of incidents in which Anderson had acted as mouthpiece for profiteers."
 Industry Thinks Prices Low
 The meat industry also was dis satisfied with the new ceilings, but for different reason. The Amer ican Meat Institute said the ceil- ings were lower than those obtain able on a free market and hence might lead to a return of the black market.
 The OPA, which had favored low CT ceilings than the Agriculture De- partment. was required by the new price control law to comply with hnderson's order within 10 days.
 OPA said 1t was postponing the effective date of the new livestock ceilings from today to Sept. 1 to enable 1t to rearrange price sched- ules in compliance with Anderson $ ruling.
 The new wholesale and retail ceilings will go into effect as orig lnally scheduled-Sept. for whole salers and Sept. for retailers
 The c. I. O. committee said il had been squarely behind OPA in it's fight to restore ceilings as close as possible to Ju21e 30 levels, and de- panded to know whether President Truman had approved Anderson's order.
 With milk and dairy products uncontrolled, the last semblance o1 price stabilization is now being de- stroyed by the Secretary of Agri- culture. the c. I. o. statement said
 Tt is time for MT. Truman tc fight for price control or to frankly concede that economic stabilization in the United States is dead"
 New retail lamb ceilings also will be higher than June 30 levels, prob ably by about four cents a pound The ultimate increase in lamt prices, however, is expected to be about nine cents a pound witt termination of producer subsidies.
 The new livestock ceilings, ir compliance with Anderson's order will be Chicago basis): s16.25 pel hundred pounds for hogs. or $1.4( ...igher than June 30 ceilings: S2O2; per hundred for choice cattle, ol S2.25 higher than June 30; and SIS per hundred for lambs.

 Poll Due Next Week
 It is expected that the candidacy of Snow or Bow1es for the gover- norship will be announced next week when the results of the Elmo Roper poll, now being conducted among Connecticut voters, is con- pleted. No actual determination of the strength of either man has been indicaed as yet although some reports state that Snow is in the lead"
 The Lieutenant-Governor's vote getting ability is seen as centering among the small towns of the State, where it is not believed that Bowles is too popular. Assurance of the small town support may give the nod to Snow as the large cities are believed to be prepared to follow the party choice.
 A recent poll taken by the h. dependent Citizens Committee of Arts, Sciences and Professions in New Haven is reported to have shown Bowles receiving approxi- mately 300 votes, Joseph M. Tone approximately 260. Snow approxi- mately 260, and Thomas J. Dodd Nuremberg prosecutor, approxi- mately 100. The poll was taken among middle class workers, Ne groeS and veterans.

Russia Short OfFoodstuffs
 End of Rotionins
 Postponed a Yeor

Moscow, Aug. 2e-(UP)-Abolition of food rationing, promised to the Russians this year by Premier Josef Stalin, has been postponed until 1947 because of drought inroads on food stocks, t was announced today.
 The Presidium of the Supreme Soviet-parliament's executive cona- nittee-decreed the delay in lifting of rationing. Newspapers published the following announcements:
 In connection with the drought in number of districts of the U.S.SR. and decrease of the states food stocks, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the U.SS.R. de- cresd acceptance of the Council of Ministers application to postpone the abolition of the food card syS- tenn from l946 to 1947."
 In his prediction speech last February, Stalin, anticipating good harvests, informed the people that rationing of bread and bread prod- ucts would be abolished before the end of the year.
 olllCe Glleli GllS uIOuSliU III oOutI and West Ukraine ruined the Win ter crops and caused a sharp de- cline in grain stocks. In the course of the drought a decree ordered re- blowing of the Winter crop areas where the crops were ruined and replanting with Spring crops.
 Newspapers said part of the Win ter crops were saved, but on the whole the results were unfavorable.
 U.N.RR.A. experts who were in the Ukraine reported that because of the widespread destruction of agricultural machinery by the Ger mans, the peasants had gone back to blowing, planting and harvesting by hand.

Albania Bid For LIN Scot Brings Fight
 Greek Opposition
 Seen As Prelude
 To Eost-West est

United Nations Headquarters, Lake Success, N. Y, Aug. 29-(UP)-The United Nations Council today went into the second round of its battle over admission of new members with strong plea for the admission of Manufactured by Russia and op- posed by the United States-from Pavle Lukin, Yugoslav representa- tive to the LIN.
 Yugoslavia and Greece, ranged pro and con on the Albanian question, requested permission Of the Secur- ity Council to state their views be- cause of their interest in Albania as their close Balkan neighbor.
 The Greek case against Albania, charging the little Balkan state with repeated violations of the Greek frontier and failure to es- tablish a peace loving state" was presented last night. Today Yugo- slavia replied. stating the exact op- poSite views and characterizing AL bania as the first victim of Italian fascism in Europe.
 BlackbalI Threatened
 The Yugoslav- Greek skirmish was a preliminary to the big power fight over Albania in which the United States has warned Russia that an American blackball will be cast against Albanian membership if Russia insists on Security Council vote. Britain, too, is prepared to veto the Albanian request for mem bership.
 Five nations faced disappointment in their bids for membership in the United Nations as the Security Council began debate on their indi- vidual applications.
 The United States and Britain ap- peared ready to use the big power veto popularized by Russia.
 Again it was Russia standing against Britain and the United States, with LIN. seats for Albania, the Mongolian peoples Republic, Portugal, Ireland and Transjordania at stake.
 Faint Hope Left
 Barring an unexpected switch in the Russian or Anglo-American pos itions, it was likely that the Soviets would blackball Portugal, Fire and Transjordania while the western powers would refuse to approve the bids of her proteges, Albania and Mongolia.

fication process. The judicial re-
view which was counted on to rectify
injustices has been slow. Recon-
mendation is made for the screening
of those teachers whose dismissal
was not mandatory and the re-
employment of the best teachers
who are, at the same time, least po-
litically unfit.
Among other recommendations
are these:
Complete CONTAMINATION" of ed
ucational authority and of military
government and the transfer OF re-
sponsibility to German agencies, ex-
cept at the top level.
That all children should stay to-
gether in the elementary school for
six years.
Guidance for the pupils. since the
majority make their occupational
choices by the age of ID.
Social Concept Must Change.
A change, both in content and
form, of the whole concept of the
social sciences. This is described as
the most important change needed
in all German schools.
The organization of school life to
provide experience in democratic
living. Student councils and other
student programs in American
schools come to mind in connection
with this recommendation.
Additional hours for social studies
and cultural subjects in the voca-
tional schools.
A realization in training teachers
that the "teacher-dominated class
and the academician Withdrawn
from student activities and COM
munity concerns" have no place.
The American educators point out
that the more than so schools es-
tablished in Germany for the chill
dren Of United States personnel can
demonstrate what modern demo-
cratic school is.
An exchange of teachers and stu
dents between Germany and this
country is recommended. The group
of educators also urges help from
this country in replacing in Ger
many the books, periodicals and
teaching materials destroyed by war.
After pointing to the attitude of
hopelessness of the Germans and
their tendency to self-pity, the re-
port says:
"It must be recorded, however,
that there is more residual health
among German youth than
outside or casual observers would
suspect. : = = Despite difficulties of
every kind, spiritual and physical,
the youth of the nation exhibit a
widespread eagerness to participate
creatiyely in rebuilding their nation,
/ in making contact with the outside
world after years of isolation, and
in reconstructing their own broken
world of ideals and loyalties. There
| is, therefore, no reason to despair
| of the fruitfulness Of the task OF
reorientation upon which we are
embarked" j"
