Still No Meat

Some time ago the Chamber of Com
merce and other organizations were
urged to write the North Carolina Sen
ators asking them to see what could
be done to get a little meat into butch
ers' show cases. Paul A. Porter, ad-
ministrator of the OPA, made a
lengthy explanation of the situation
by mail to Senator Bailey. A copy Of
his letter has found it's way to this
department. In it-and this is interest
'ing-he carefully avoids direct refer
ence to black markets. His adroitness
is remarkable, but he does not conceal
the fact that cattle have been diverted
from legitimate channels. He writes,
in part:
with the suspension of %rationing,
the effective demand for meats, par
t~icularly beef, has increased materially.
Although the requirements of the
armed services and for relief in war
torn countries are not as great as IN
1914 and 1915, those needs have a
significant effect on the meat supply
available for domestic consumption.
With a much larger portion of u pop
ulation able financially to improve their
eating habits, many small slaughterers,
retailers, restaurants and others have
entered the livestock markets with the
desire to capitalize on this almost limit
less demand. Because of their disregard
for or ignorance Of the regulations,
they have bid up the prices to the ex-
tent that the regular slaughterers can
not compete and stay within the regula-
lions at the same time. Consequently,
a large portion of the cattle supply has
been diverted from normal channels"
That is to say, it has found its way
into the black market. Mr.. Porter's
explanation shows something wrong in
the organization he heads.sSIt is clear
that the OPA has fallen down again,
apparently in not giving cattlemen a
ceiling price that will permit them a
fair profit on their stock and has driven
them into the black market where they
can make a profit.
In the meantime, Wilmington butch
ers stand behind empty cases and house.
wives for the most part either return
from their marketing expeditions with
out meat or pay exhorbitant prices for
poor cuts of low quality meat.

conversations with State depart
ment officials Friday in an effort
to more closely define American
policy matters before Baruch
meets with other United Nations
representatives in an effort to for
mulate the world program.
The senate committee, which
planned several weeks ago to con-
duct open hearings on the Lilien-
thai program, has delayed the
move at the request of the State
department. Chairman Brien Nc
Mahon, D., Conn. said no date has
been set yet.
One committee member said that
developments such as the stale
mated Big Four Foreign Ministers
conference at Paris have been a
factor in the review of policy.
Another said that some scientists
privately have expressed grave
doubts as to the practicability of
denaturizing plutonium and U-235,
making those atomic materials un-
tit for use as explosives, but re-
tanning their value as a source of
power.
If denaturizing fails, this mem
Der observed, full dependence must
be placed on POLITICAL relations
between nations for atomic con-
troll. This, he commended, would not
be easy at the present stage of
big nation relationships.
Still another member said that
no commitments can be made un-
til Baruch's position has been clari-
fed. He pointed out that policy
cannot be announced until Baruch's
approval has been obtained, since
negotiations must be conducted by
him.
President Truman disclosed at
The Wilmington morning star., 1946-05-17

his news conference that the first
meeting of the UN Atomic commits
sion will be held in New York June
IA.
The plan for world control was
blessed by Byrnes when it first
was made public, but mot as a
statement of policy Byrnes adj
vocated it solely as a basis for in
formed public discussion.
The senate committee immedi-
ately thereafter planned to furnish
a sounding board for such public
discussion, but its plans are being
held in allegiance, apparently in
definitely.
The study recommended an in
ternational development authority
with broad powers of ownership
control and production of atomic
materials from the stage Of raw,
unmined ores to final utilization.
Tt recommended that closely de-
fined "safe" activities, mainly
small scale research, be pursued
by nations, but only then with
materials obtained from the inter
national authority under licenses.

Religion
Day By Day
IT WITHsTOOD THE STORM
BY T. ELLIS

A Baptist chaplain, Thomas M.
Hunter, serving in Korea, was so
impressed by what he found when
the Americans entered The Her
NIT Kingdom" that he sat down
and wrote d letter about it to the
Southern Presbyterian Mission
Board. He and his men were sta
toned in the section of Korea that
had been a Presbyterian Mission
field.
Everywhere l 60 I see marvel
Gus results of your work here. The
Chaplains as we'll as all the troops
were amazed to see Christianity
so well developed here. In fact it
seems to be already indigenous.
The japanese suppressed Chris
tianity, but it is still the most ac-
tive, VITAL. and I believe the most
numerous religion here.
'In Andong presbyterian U. S.
A. the church is usually packed
with about 500 people for every
service. I have had the privilege
of preaching there with a Korean
doctor as an interpreter"
THE church gave a Christmas
play and concert for our troons
They have one of the finest choirs
I have ever heard. My G.I. choir
sang a few numbers for them
and then, in closing, both of the
choirs sang oh Come All Ye Faith
full together in English and Korean
In perfect harmony, Americans
and Koreans sang the praises Of
God. That really gave me a thrill
I believe Christianity is beginnino
its greatest period of progress in
Korea now"
So the Church in Korea has
%weataered the long and fierce storm
OF japanese pagan persecution. and
we may expect it to become a cen
ter CT influence in the Far East
If I know those Korean Christians
as ! think I do, they will soon hs
sending missionaries to Japan and
China. "A

Care Of The Needy

An examination of the facts pertain
ing to North Carolina and, specifically.
New Hanover County relief for the
INDECENT aged, the blind, and dependent
children reveal this:
Old age grants are lowest in the
nation, except in Kentucky and
Georgia.
Grants to the blind are lowest
except in Alabama, Georgia, Ken
lucky and Virginia.
Aid to dependent children is low
est except in Kentucky, Texas and
South Carolina.
The deplorable situation is due n
the lack of legislation providing for
matching available federal funds. The
federal government has earmarked
money to equal state money in the
amount of $40 monthly for old persons
and the blind, $18 a month for the
first dependent child and SIP apiece
Tor each additional child. AS the state
though proper legislative act has fail
ed to match these figures, the pensions
OF aged persons in New Hanover county
on the average are $3.50 a month and
Tor the blind and dependent children
In proportion. This, instead of $40 a
month, shared equally between the
federal government and the State.
One result is the small amount paid
some of the old folk in the county is
not enough to keep body and soul to-
gether, and the difference has to be
made up by the associated charities,
or from other public sources, and the
money thus devoted comes from the
taxpayers, whereas the federal gov
eminent has appropriated ample money
to meet it's share and would do so as
soon as the state came across with
its share.
Obviously there is need for cor
