Nadalje mi pise O dogodkih cd
sosolcev. Pise tudi cd svojega
strica, da 81 je naredil lepo 60
stilno. Ko so pa Nemci prisli
tam 1941. leta, so jih pa veliko
zaprli po nedolznem, tako tudi
njegovega strica. Naznanil ga
je sosed Anton Burja, ker je vec
prodal, kot pa on.
Potem se pise:
"V Zasipu snao bill vecima sa-
posleni y tovarni no Jesenicah.

Vprasuje me, &c mi je znana
vas Begunje ma Gorenjskem, da
tam je bila groza in strah, ko so
zasedli Nemci Jugoslavijo. Tam
so jih streljali, mucili in zapirali
v zensko kaznilnico in v Dragi

je znano "a to vas.
Dne 3. decembra 1915 je bilo

enaki po vsebini.

Po navadi smo sc vsi otroci zna-

-SoIon to Urge Pension Hike
 Senator Downey
 Outlines PTons

Washington, Oct. 22-(UP)-Sen. Sheridan Downey, (D.-CalD, said to- day he will ask the next Congress to boost old age pensions to at least SIS or $100 8 month to help develop the purchasing power needed to maintain full production and full employment.
 He said in an interview that the related needs of keeping up full en- ployment and raising pensions ranked second only to foreign policy among major issues facing the Unit ed States.
 To meet what he foresaw as a public demand within a year" for greater security for "senior citizens, Downey said he planned to intro duce legislation embodying principles of the Townsend Old Age Pension Plan as soon as Congress recon venes in January.
 He said it would include proyi- Sions to
 1. Lower the pension eligibil-
 ity age from 65 to 60.
 2. Abolish the present Social Security law requirements that
 pension candidates swear they
 are in need.
 3. Lift pensions from the
 countrywide average of $A paid
 under present laws to at least
 $75 to $100 level.
 By next year. Downey said, U. s. production will reach the point where plenty of goods will be avail able for everyone-"and that 1n- cludes our retired citizens"

Major Meat Packers Neor. Full Stride
 Will Not Meet
 Demond Before Two Weeks or More
By UNITED PRESS

The nations packing plants nesred their production stride to- day with g promise to housewives of more meat on the table at lower prices.
 supply still had not caught up with demand, however, and spokes- men for the meat industry believed 1t would be at least two more weeks before the prices of steaks, chops and roasts come down.
 But the big packing plants were ironing out their labor shortages and moving rapidly toward full pro- auction, while farmers were sending the biggest shipments of livestock to market in three years.
 Small Packers Came Through
 Much of the meat bought by housewives for last Sundays dinner came from small packers. The price was high' because of the pent-up demand, and because the price of livestock had scared to the highest levels in history.
 The price of meat-on-the -hoof continues to fluctuate, but as the horde of cattle, hogs and sheep moves into the nations stockyards. their are indications that prices have begun to level off.
 some of the big Chicago packers swinging into production have cut their wholesale prices far below those of last week, when a meat hungry nation beat a path to the butcher shop at the first indication that the shortage was over.
 Chicago packers said that the wholesale price of beef had dropped rom 65 cents pound to between DO and 50 cents. Shipments from the big packinghouses. will reach the retail butcher shops late this week at lower prices, the packers said.
 Consumer Resistance Grows
 There were indications of grow Ing consumer resistance to high re- tall prices and in New York retail beef and lamb already had dropped ID to 20 cents as housewives refused to buy it at $1 a pound. Retailers predlcted a further reduction of 20 to 30 cents if the resistance con- tinues.
 Wholesale meat prices at New York were down 2 to 14 cents A pound because of the heavy slaughter by independent operators
 Wilson & Company reported that It was slaughtering 99 head of cattle an hour at its Chicago plant, com pared with a normal rate of 1O8 hourly. Other packers cited similar production rates and said they would reach full output this week.
 Hog slaughtering, however. was slower. Packers said the labor short age had kept the kill 50 percent be- low normal.
 Wilson Strike-Bound
 Wilson's Cedar Rapids, Ia. plant was strikebOilnd for the third time this year as members of the CIO United Clearinghouse Workers walked out in wage dispute. The argument centered in the pork de- partment, where the union claimed eacn worker was doing the work of three men.
 AS farmers continued their heavy shipments, three livestock centers already damned with animals were forced to impose embargoes on further shipments. Livestock inter- ests at Kansas City last night de- clared a A-hour embargo on mixed shipments of cattle to market by truck.
 Previously, embargoes had been placed in effect at Sioux City, Ia., and Ogden, Utah.
