SET GRAIN CEILINGS
FROM NOW TO JUNE Al

To remove uncertainty concerning
grain price ceilings between now
and June 80, 1947, and to encourage
movement of grain for shipment
abroad as well as for human con-
sumption in this country and es-
sential livestock feeding, a govern
ment price policy has been an
nounced jointly by the office of
economic sterilization, department
of agriculture and OPA. Grain
price ceiling increases effective May
10, were announced, and increases
in protein feed prices to a normal
relationship with the new grain
prices. The announced price sched-
ule can be expected to continue,
without change, until June 80, 1947,
the agencies stated.
The department of agriculture an
nOunced the 30-cent bonus corr pur-
chase program terminated at close
of business May11. Payment of
the 30-cent bonus on wheat deliver
ed to the government on or before
May %, will be made as originally
announced.
Necessity for using more grain
for direct consumption, and less for
feeding, means that next year there
will be less pork, poultry and eggs,
and less top grade beef. The total
of these foods, however, is
expected to be above prewar levels.
1t is planned to make no price cell
ing increases on these products dur
ing the year ahead, except as re-
quired by changes in parity, as
provided by law. Because of neces-
sity for maintaining milk produc-
ton, consideration will be given to
increased feed costs in any further
adjustment in returns to dairy
farmers. The aim in dairy produc-
tion will be to maintain output as
as possible to the record levels
of the past two years.

TP&W.

TP&W.
The Federal Court having now
come to his rescue, McNear has
taken half page ads in the Peoria
papers to publicize the injunction
and to carry a TP&W statement
saying that since the order makes
no reference to terms or condi-
tons of employment, the TP&W
offers to rehire former employees
whom we can utilize and who
have not engaged in acts Of
violence"
THIS injunction is a challenge
to all organized labor. The rail
unions are preparing to appeal
the case to higher courts and will
surely battle McNear to the bitter
end.
But at this time, when unity IS
so badly needed, the huge Cater
pillar local of the CLIO Farm
Equipment Workers Union, which
in the past has rallied time after
time in support of the TP&W
strikers, is faced with problem
of its own. In apparent collision
with the company, the AFL Auto
Workers Union is attempting to
raid the "Cat" local. This disrup-
tive raid is being aided and abet-
ted by certain officers of the
AFL Central Trades and Labor
Assembly.
One hears rumblings from AFL
railworkers and others that these
Peoria ALL leaders" are going
to have to learn about unity the
hard way.

During the past year he constant

would keep housing costs down

tionary rise in general living

rental unit ceiling from $50 a

A GOOD NOTE, v

y
say, on that morning when we
consider - even if on TO other
morning that gentle revolu-
tionary who was once called the
Prince of the Poor?
There are so many poor = and
it seems a shame that we can't
give them all good Christmas
dinner, once a year, naturally,
and have done with them. But,
somehow, you can't have done
with these uneasy folk. In our
own South, there are millions of
them, dark-skinned men and
women who add their deep voices
to the Christmas singing:
"Face the rising sun,
OF new day begun!
Let us march on
Til victory Is won!"
THE SONGS blend. They have
the same quality, the same TIM
Der. In Italy, two million voices
greet the new year with:
March on masses,
To the battle,
Our crimson banner
Waves triumphantIy-"
And the echo comes from a
sixth of the earth's surface:
Omitted forever In friendship
and labor
Our mighty republics will ever
endure;
The great Soviet Union will live
through the ages
The dream of a people, their
fortress secure"
so THERE are many voices on
this holy day, and they sing in
holly cause, the most ancient
and holy cause known to man
the cause of freedom.
And as they rise, they strike a
note that no noise can drown, a
note sounded by countless mil
lions who know that life cannot
be set back, and who say 1t in
these words:
"Arise, yet slaves no more In
thrall,
The earth shall rise on new
foundations,
You have been naught, We shall
be all!'

But they had disappeared, and
discovered them only after a
lengthy search with my eyes,
standing good ten feet away, deep
in discussion that didn't look as

Inspector Barry was doing most
of the talking, | noticed, while
Hunt contented himself with an oc-
casional brief remark, or mods.
He looked terribly tired, and even
more annoyed than when he'd come

ashamed to admit, once the curtain
was up again l forgot Brenda's alb

midnight, is registered in my men,

The Inspector said first: "I see,"
and then: That's right, you

as the outer hall, where he topped

There was no answer, and the

My first thought was that Bren-

promptly-shec couldn't be, with the,
