35-Cent-a.Ton Boost
In Coal Price 10 Be
Allowed by U. 5.
By jones Y. Newton

The Government will allow 8
soft coal price increase to con-
sumers upward of IS cents a ton
based on Six-day operation OF
the mines under terms of the
work contract signed with the
United Mine Workers a week ago
it was learned today.
Secretary of Interior Krug, the
Federal mine boss, has decided il
will be necessary to operate most OF
the mines 81 hours a week in order
to meet demands for coal. it was
said, and has applied for a price
increase on that basis.
Officials said the increase will be
at least IS cents while private op-
orators said there must be a ma
tional average raise of from As tc
SO cents if the mines are to be op-
Grated profltably over the longer
work week.
Five-Day Week Was Contract Basis
During contract negotiations with
John l.. Lewis, a five-day, 45-houl
week was believed adequate to meet
soft coal needs. On that basis, il
was believed a price rise of from q
to 80 cents a ton would cover the
wage increase, higher vacation al.
lowance and welfare fund given the
mine workers.
On five-day, 45-hour basis, the
average mine worker would receive
s59.25 a week. On a six-day basis
the weekly pay would be raised te

Glenn Martin Cleared
In Rye Trading Case
BY the Associated Press

~ wv SsSSSiufGo Ft93s
The Agriculture Department yes
terday dropped its charges that
Glenn L. Martin, Baltimore air.
plane manufacturer, violated Gov
ernment trading regulations in con-
nection with transactions in rye
futures contracts on the Chicago
Board of Trade on June 9, 1945.
However, it ordered Mr.. Martins
broker-Henry Ullrich, and the firm,
Ullrich g. Co. of Wilmington, Del
suspended for five days from trad
ing on commodity exchanges oper-
ating under control of the Com
modify Exchange Act.
Mr.. Martin and his broker were
charged by the department with
having traded in excess of a daily
limit of 1000, 900 bushels of rye fu-
lures. The limit had been set by
the Government to prevent what it
| called excessive speculation"
At hearings, Mr.. Martin and his
broker stated that neither intended
to violate the regulation and that
neither knew of its existence. Mr..
Martin said he did not know of the
transaction. He said his broker had
a general authorization to act as
his agent in handling an investment
account without consulting him.
The suspension of the broker will
become effective in 80 days.
The charges were filed by the de-
partment's Commodity Exchange
Administration, created under the
Commodity Exchange Act which

Anderson Tells Rotary
Abundant Production
Need Not Be a Curse
BY tho Assoeioted Press

ATLANTIC CITY, May 5.-Sec-
retary of Agriculture Anderson ap-
pealed today for international CO.
operation on farm problems to pre-
vent the blessing of abundant pro-
duction" from being transformed
into a postwar economic curse.
In addressing the 37th annual
convention of Rotary international,
of which he is past president, Sec
retary Anderson recalled how agri-
culture boosted its output during
World War 1 only to be plunged
later into a depression OF ruinously
low prices and unmarketable sur
pluses.
Cannot Put on Brakes.
Surely we cannot allow questions
and doubts to put the brakes on pro-
duction in this hungry world" he
declared.
production was agriculture's re-
sponSe to the crisis of the war, and
production is our response to the
crisis of famine. Our weapon has
become a blessing"
Mr.. Anderson said the end of the
world food emergency-whether it
comes in 2 years or 10-'need not
transform this blessing into curse.
It need not, but the intelligence,
goodwill and cooperation of the
worlds people will be needed to pre-
vent it."
The secretary cautioned against
'nationalistic" food policies.
There are signs" he said, "of a
general movement in the direction
of self -sufflciency in importing coun-
tries. National plans are being made
on that basis.
Governments Uphold Prices.
"In exporting counties govern
ments are supporting prices and
have made commitments to continue
to do so in the expectation that
when the extraordinary needs OF the
present for food are met, produc-
ton will be at too high level and
prices will collapse"
OcCIcCdIy AuuciSoA odio CAdt Wills
revealed a general tendency toward
nationalistic action which cannot
fal to result in innumerable sources
of friction between countries unless
there is a strong and effective ef-
fort toward" international co-opera-
ton.
The secretary said the United Ma
tions food and agriculture organiza-
ton offers q medium for such CO.
operation and is therefore lone of
the greatest hopes of mankind for
peace and plenty in the future"

The USO will continue to operate
in the District until December 81
1947, Miss Clara Boyd Wheeler,
chairman of the Washington USO
Staff Conference, announced yes
terday in emphasizing that the role
played by USO volunteers continues
to grow since they serve not only
experienced servicemen but also
young inductees.
This is because the armed forces
are now in the process of building
new peacetime strength and at the
same time disbursing wartime
might, thereby presenting "a real
challenge" for a broader recrea-
tional program in USO clubs, ac-
cording to Miss Wheeler. She
added that everything must be done
to maintain the morale of the new
inductee who is more likely to feel
"a little useless and homesick'
since he is not being geared to
wartime pitch"
In Washington's II USO clubs
which are continually thronged with
servicemen, Miss Wheeler pointed
out that volunteer hostesses act as
chaperons, dance and badminton
partners, and also service the snack
bars for men. In addition, they plar
