PAC Dominates Truman,
TAFT Tells Tennesseeans
BY the Assoeioted Press

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Oct. 22.-If
a Democratic Congress is elected
November, S, the United States will
resume its trend toward centralized
state, Senator Taft, Republican, OF
Ohio told East Tennessee Repub-
licans last night.
The present Democratic Congress
Is dominated by the administration
and the administration is dominated
by the PAC philosophy" Senator
Taft continued, and said the Presi-
dent had Endorsed every PAC prof.
ect until the voice of a united people
and of anguished Democratic poll
ticians forced the abandonment OF
meat controls"
Senator Taft welcomed aid of
Southern Democrats in opposing the
Administrations legislative program,
but said the election OF "a Repub-
lcan House and Republican Sem
ate" is the "one way we can be
certain, Of stopping the steady In
crease of regulation by Federal bu-
reaus."
while this year we only elect a
Congress, we are really opening the
campaign to elect Republican

Resignation Demand Surprise,
Wallace Says in New Booklet

Henry Wallace said, in booklet
to be published Friday, that he was
surprised when his resignation as
Secretary of Commerce was demand
ed by President Truman, since, two
days before, the President gave
such sympathetic consideration" to
his Cabinet officer's views.
Mr.. Wallace said he had mo pre-
else knowledge" OF what happened
the day after his talk with Mr..
Truman
The booklet, "The Fight for
Peace" Is published by Reynal &
Hitchcock, Inc, and contains Mr..
Wallace's much-discussed speech at
Madison Square Garden September
20 and the correspondence With
the President which eliminated in
the Secretary's forced resignation.
Discusses the Issue.
In the preface, Mr.. Wallace COM
ments on the defeatist attitude that
regards war with Russia as in
evitable.
For many months in private
discussions and in the cabinet
of the President Of the United
States, I challenged this defeatist
position. At the request of the
President himself, submitted my
views on this matter in letter
under date of July 23-the letter
that is herein republished.
THE subsequent course Of events
convinced me that it was time to
speak out publicly. This I did at
Madison Square Garden in New
York City on the night Of September
IL. That speech--which Is also re-
published here-was cleared by the
President himself.
"On the following Tuesday, Sep
TENDER II, my letter to the President
was made public with White House
clearance after it had become known
that some indiscreet Official had
given a copy of it to Washington
columnist. On the next day I had
a long and exhaustive discussion
with the President. He seemed so
sincerely hopeful that the Paris
Conference, then in progress, would
lead to real peace-and he gave
such sympathetic consideration to
my views-that I agreed to his pro-
posal, undertaking to make no fur
ther statements until the conference
had ended.
ct have no precise knowledge Of
what happened the following day
and I was surprised on Friday morn
ing, September 20, to be informed
that my resignation was desired.
The President stated bis belief that
I would be happier in the exercise
of my right to present my views as
a private citizen.
Shortly thereafter, Bernard M.
Baruch, United States representa-
tive to the United Nations Atomic
Energy Commission, took exception
to portions of my letter which re-
late to atomic energy control. AL
though Mr.. Baruch indicated that
his position on certain procedural
points had not been accurately rep
resented, nothing in our discussion
could cause me to revise the basic

|Buyer Resistance Cuts Prices
|OfMeot in Number of Cases

Even so, about 40 per cent OF the
housewives were aloof from buying
or bought but little in protest. Sew
eral Detroit retailers urged their
customers not to buy more than
their barest needs as an ultimate
price corrective. In Western New
York State dealers themselves were
advised to buy only what they
could sell quickly. A slaughterers'
group and independent retailers in
Newark, N. j., both called on buyers
to resist.
Here were some extremes in
prices: Worcester, Mass, steaks,
$1.10 to $50; roasts, rs cents to
SIPS, and hamburger, 81 a pound,
while in Dallas, Tex, chain stores
dropped the prices on good T-bone

Livestock Receipts,
Slowed by Embargoes,
Show Sharp Decline
BY the Associated Press

CHICAGO, Oct. 22.-Cattle and
sheep receipts at the Nations ter
minaI livestock markets dropped
far below yesterdays great numbers
today, practically because OF en-
bargoes on shipments, but hogs ran
somewhat higher.
Meanwhile, an embargo on cattle
and calves arriving by truck was
ordered at the Kansas City stock
yards, effective at 2:30 pm, after
an overnight jam Of trucks boosted
today,s receipts to 1900 cattle
peak for the Nations markets.
Trucks jammed the roads lead
ing to the stockyards last night,
causing some animals to be re-
turned to farms because of the long
waits. Trucks brought in total
Of $500 of today's cattle receipts.
No. embargo was placed on rail
shipments to the yards.
Also influencing the fluctuation
was an embargo ordered at Sioux
City, Iowa, yesterday, because of a
lack of cattle cars in which buyers
could ship their animals East. A
partial embargo by means of per-
NIT system was enforced by the
Illinois Central and Belt Line rail-
roads at Chicago Other smaller
points felt the car stringency.
Prices Affect Loading.
Prices also affected overnight
loadings. Hogs generally were from
81 to 81 higher yesterday, whereas
cattle and sheep usually were just
as much lower. Today the hog
market opened slow and 81 lower.
The top was $24.
Today's salable cattle receipts
totaled an estimated 61,100 for the
Nations IL principal markets, COM
pared with 10000 yesterday. Hogs
ran to 10000 today compared with
$500 yesterday, and sheep totaled
49, 300 today, compared with 118,60o
yesterday. Tuesday normally is
sharply lower than Monday.
Kansas City's salable receipts of
II 900 was followed by Omaha with
8, 500 and Chicago with 5000. In hogs
it was st. Paul in the lead with $4,000,
Chicago next with 1000 and In
dianapolis third with 10000. st.
Paul was far in front of all others
in sheep receipts with $4,000 head.
Operations Nearing Normal.
Operations in most of the coun-
| try's big stockyards were slowly re-
turning to normal as more butchers
returned to their jobs to handle
the heavy arrivals.
AS the labor situation repeatedly
began to ease, packers reported they
were delivering greater quantities Of
beef, pork and lamb to butcher
shops.
At Chicago's big yards. Wilson q
Co. was killing 80 cattle an hour,
compared with a normal of 108.
Other packing plants reported their
cattle kill approaching normal and
most expected to be operating at full
schedule by the middle of next week.
Packing spokesman said lack Of
workers was keeping the hog slaugh-
ter at about so per cent of normal,
while there was a shortage of help
in the yards. Slaughtering opera
tons were reported near normal
at plants in Kansas City.

Nine More Carloads
OF Meat Leave Supply
Still Below Normal

Arrival Of nine carloads Of meat
early today swelled to approx
mately 46 the number received here
since Saturday, railroads reported
This was still below normal for
weekly peak period shipments and
included a comparatively small
amount of beef. But it indicates
"the supply line has started to fill
up" and that a substantial. al
though not plentiful, supply will be
available by next week, dealers de-
clared.
One railroad brought in about rs
carloads over the week end and the
other major line delivered IL, not
including the which came in last
night. A total Of about go was con-
sidered normal for week ends in past
years. Railroad officials as we'll as
wholesalers explained that substan-
tial supplies of red meat" probably
would not begin to come in before
the end of this week.
Still Buying Cautiously.
In the opinion of Raymond Briggs,
chairman of the wholesale food d.
vision of the Merchants & Manufac-
turers' Association, the pipeline
from livestock yards to wholesalers
and retailers is really beginning to
flow" He warned, however. that
supply cannot come up to demand
for some time, although beef, lamb,
veal and some pork should be On
store counters in stable quantities
next week.
Dealers as well as shoppers are
still buying very cautiously" he
said on the basis of reports from
association members. The prospect
Of, increased supplies later this week
and present reluctance to buy at
still higher prices account for this
caution, he said. ~
The prospect of such increased
supplies Is affecting the poultry
market in several ways, dealers said
Following an average drop Of about
IL cents pound during the past 10
days or two weeks, poultry prices
today seemed to be leveling of.
Bring Their Own STEAKS.
Max Bressler, chairman of the
poultry division Of the Merchants
and Manufacturers Association, said
many producers were holding light
and young poultry from the market
in the expectation that after peo-
pie have meat again for a while
they will want some chicken again. !"
Meat eating in restaurants took a
new turn this week in at least one
of the best-known eating places
here. In that establishment last
night a group Of six men relished
fine cut Of sirloin A diner at the
next table, finding no mention Of
steak on the menu, was told by the
waiter that the men had brought in
their own steaks. One Of them then
offered to bring in a steak tonight
for the meatless dinner.
The restaurant manager said that
only in rare instances did he allow
customers to bring in steaks for
cooking. He said he did not know
where the steaks came from.
