HOMES:
100000 Started

Wilson W. Wyatt, national hous-
ing expediter, is confident that the
1916 goal of 1900, 900 housing units
will be met. He has also reported
that 406. 900 dwelling units have been
started so far this year, this figure
representing approximately "a per
cent of the goal.
The housing expediter, in his first
report to the nation on the hous-
ing program, said that prices for
new homes and rentals are still too
high to fit the purses of many veter-
ans" He called for the erection of
more rental housing and promised
that all construction will be careful
ly inspected to insure both good
quality and fair prices.
He strongly implied that unless
price controls are restored the vet
eran. more than anyone else, will
be the victim of the housing stu
alton.

ATOM BOMB:
Results Are Argued

The wrath of the atomic bomb
was Embossed. but goats kept on eat
ing, palm trees waved their fronds,
and birds still flew W Bikini la
COON. To many eye-witnesses the
p~yrotechnic display was colorful
and gorgeous. to others the whole
show was a dild. Arguments have
already started and will continue
for weeks and months. or even
years. Is atomic energy so fright
full as we supposed? Is the mod
ern battle-wagon still mistress of the
seas?
But FIVE ships were sunk, 6 were
wrecked, Is were badly damaged,
and possibly all the rest Of 70 in the
naval fleet bear scars. However, not
a capital ship was sunk by the
atomic blast, although havoc
wrought by the bombs might was
evident on every hand. Fires ragged
aboard at least eight Of the vessels,
including one ship two miles from
the target center.

FOURTH OF JULY:
Ne1U RepubLic Born

A crowd of 100, 900 packed the
greensward of the historic Luneta
in Manila on July 4 and faced the
~grandstand where 5000 special
guests and notables had gathered.
Gen. Douglas Macarthur was there;
SO vas Paul v. McNutt, now U. S.
ambassador to a new republic.
The occasion was the birth Of a
new republic. when the Philippine
Islands. a territory of the United
States. became the Republic of the
Philippines. The first president OF
the new nation is Manuel Roxas,
who paid a tribute to the United
States.
I'VE are no longer protected by
the mantle Of American sovereign
ty.' Roxas warned. mo longer can
we look to America to shield US
from u follies and excesses."
But in Washington, President Tru-
man said: THE United States
stands ready to assist the Philip
pines in every way possible dur
ing the years to come"
The Stars and Stripes, which have
flown for nearly half a century over
the Pacific island group. was hauled
down. The silver-starred flag of the
Republic Of the Philippines was run
up as church bells rang out. A
new nation was born on July 4, 1916.

$3.50 CURE:
Hyperthyroidism

1t used to cost $3.50 for a surgical
operation to cure hyperthyroidism.
but there is now a cure costing only
$3.50, contained in a drink of water.
That is what DR.. Earle M. Chap
man of the Massachusetts, General
hospital, Boston. told the American
Medical association meeting in San
Francisco recently.
The curative agent is a tiny pinch
of radio-iodine. one of the atomic
medicines. 1t is not new, having
been used SUPPLEMENTARY for years.
But the new thing about it is that
it has been accepted by doctors Of
medicine in place of the more eX-
pensive and more serious surgical
process. Atomic ven a produce
the cyclotron product inexpensive
ly and it should become plentiful
shortly, said DR.. Chapman.

WARSHIPS:
Safe From Atom?

Ships cannot be built with steel
thick enough to protect their crews
from the terrific lethal radiation of
a close atomic explosion, Col. Stat
ford Warren. Bikini safety officer,
has declared after an inspection.
Some of the 70 target vessels re-
manned dangerously radioactive
even a week after the atomic bomb,
he declared. after the ballot fire
blast sank five, heavily damaged
nine and affected SO warships. Radi-
alton released by the bomb was ter
rife" Colonel Warren told news
men.
Colonel Warren believes that if
the target fleet had been manned,
the blast would have rendered it
helpless, since many not killed by
the blast would have been unable to
carry on their duties because Of ILL
ness from radiation" quoting Cap
tain George Lyon also of the safety
staff.

STRIKES:
If Prices Rise

Even if imitation comes, workers
must eat. That is the gist of labor
unions comment. employers
failed to keep their word, and so
did the government. We are no long
er bound to keep our word not to
strike"
Blaming the house and senate for
not holding the line on prices,
many labor leaders have indicat-
ed that if prices 60 up-and prices
are going up-then demands for in.
creases in wages will come. And il
those demands aren't met there will
be strikes.

HOBBS
Restricts Labor

Although he signed the Hobbs bill,
which applies heavy federal anti
racketeering penalties to labor un-
ions, President Truman attempted
to safeguard legitimate rights of or
ganized labor by a simultaneous
message to congress limiting the
impact of the law.
The message stated that the Pres
ident signed the act only on the un-
derstanding, asserted by Attorney
General Clark, that the law would
not modest ''the great legislative
safeguards which the congress has
established for the protection of la
Dor in the exercise of its funda-

or bronze grasses.
While there are about one
million acres of this excellent
grass in Montana, they suggest
that it be used along with ma
tive grasses by using the wheat
grass for early grazing and the
other for finishing.
Reference has recently been
made to the value of milk and
pasture in poultry feeding.
Since preparing those items, at
tentiOn has been called to a re-
cent report from the Ohio ag-
ricultural experiment station on
their Investigations on the use
of pasture for rearing pulletS
over the past six-year period.
Four experiments were conduct
ed on the growth of pulletS on
range, paSturage, and whole
grain without mash after the
first seven weeks as compared
to five with mash. They report
that in three consecutive years
experiments satisfactory results
were secured by the growth OF
ready-to-day pullets on unlim-
tied range, paSturage, ana
whole grain without mash. AS
might be expected, these pull
lets were a little below normal
body weight when taken from
the range, and were two to
three weeks late in starting tc
lay. Upon receiving the regular
laying rations, however, they
promptly attained their normal
body weight and soon caught
up in egg production with their
sisters, which received whole
grain and mash.
Contrary to the favorable re-
suits secured from the pullets
Gncluding Rhode Island RedS)
raised on unlimited range, pas
turage, and whole grain with
out mash, the growth of Rhode
Island Red pullets on a limited
(250 birds per acre. range, pas
turage, and whole grain proved
unsuccessful in a fourth exper-
iment. These bullets averaged
is pounds less in weight per
bird when taken from the range
and were six weeks later in
starting to lay, than were sim
liar pullets which received
whole grain and the range
mash. In this instance, there
was good Ladino clover pas
turage for twice the number of
pullets involved, but the limit
ed range fell far short in pro-
viding the bugs, insects, worms,
and other items needed to SUD-
stitute for the mash.
The number of birds involved
and amount and quality of
range available should be con-
sidered when deciding whether
or not to use a grafn-range
feeding program for developing
pullets without mash. The use
of a mash will give increased
insurance of rearing good pull
lets.

OPA ENDS:
Lid Is off

When President Truman vetoed
the OPA extension bill. declaring it
was not a true ''price-control'
measure, the house of representa-
tives passed a resolution extending
OPA for a 20-day period. Then the
senate baked. Result: No OPA.
The reaction was immediate
in cattle, hogs, grain and dairy
products. Prime cattle shot up
to S22 a hundred pounds on the
Chicago market for an all-time
high within hours. Two-doIlar
wheat was seen for the first time
since 1925. Milk went up about
2 cents a quart. Women in
Washington. D. c.. reported
butter at "a cents q pound.
Many merchants all over the
United States, however. pledged a
hold-the-line policy. In a few cases.
prices were lowered to start
healthy competition" But generally
prices began moving up, despite
President Truman's appeal to hold
down imitation until a new price con
troll bill could be passed by the con
gress.
In view of the situation, Senate
Majority Leader Barley warned
that two or three weeks probably
would be required to get even a
temporary continuation resolution
through the senate. The 20-day ex-
tension passed by the house will
have passed before then. The ma
jority leader told President Truman
the senate would attempt to work
out a permanent law instead of a
temporary makeshift.

TAX RISE:
If Prices Soar

In Washington, John W. Snyder.
secretary Of the treasury. told a
news conference that an increase
in tax rates may be asked by the
administration next year if there is
sharp imitation in prices following
the ending of OPA. The additional
tax would be levied on individuals
and corporations when congress
meets after the first of next year.
Mr.. Snyder gave fiat assurance.
however, that the administration
would propose no new tax levies
during 1916.
The U. S. treasury, Mr.. Sny-
der stated, had over IA billion
dollars cash balance, but has
temporarily halted its program
of retiring the public debt
through cash redemption of ma
turing securities. To redeem
these securities now would add
to buying pressure. The treas
ury has taken this step, it was
learned, as an anti-inflationary
step.
Mr.. Snyder chung to his promise.
given upon taking office a few weeks
ago, that he would try hard to
balance the l947 budget. But he
added that we're going to have
pretty tough shedding" to achieve
the goal because there have been
elements injected into the picture
we weren't looking for"

0PA ECONOMIST
NURSES SORE JAW
Fort Worth Attorney Sends
Left lab Following
Brief Argument

WASHINGTON, April 1o-P)-An
OFA economist nursed a sore ia
Wednesday after brush with a
lawyer for Texas cattlemen over
ceiling prices on livestock.
Leonard Rhodes, OPA meat
branch economist, took a left lab
to the jaw. 1t was thrown by Joe
Montague of Fort Worth, attorney
for the Texas and Southwest Cattle
Ralsers association.
In Elevator
1t all happened Tuesday as the
two started to step into an elevator
in the House office building after
ceiling price hearing.
Montague told newsmen Rhodes
accused him of having delivered
below the belt'' blows at OPA at
the hearing and
He almost punched a finger in
my eye as he pointed his accusa-
ton at me.
Il have never hit anyone below
the belt in any sense of the word
so I simply gave him one to the
jaw. I helped him straighten up
and that's all there was to it,
Rhodes Side
Rhodes side:
Some of his (Montag guess state
ments before the committee were
false and I did not get a chance
before the committee to disprove
him. I suppose he struck me be-
cause of what I said about his
testimony as we entered the eleva-
tor"
Rhodes contended that Montague
had testified OPA in fixing slaught-
er quotas in 1945, had used 1910
figures for a basis. In reality, he
said, OPA used 1914 figures.
After the alteration Rhodes
descended in the elevator and Mon
tague remained behind with as
sociates who had accompanied him
to the hearing.
