ghosts would hesitate to dwell, not

SUGAR SHIPMENT
EXPECTED SOON
Clark Says Consignment
Should Be Here In
DAY Or Two"

A special shipment of Puerto
Rican sugar for sugar-starved Will
mington should arrive here by rail
from Baltimore lin a day or two.
Congressman J. Bayard Clark told
The Star from Washington last
night as he reiterated his last
weeks promise that you should
be receiving sugar in sufficient
quantities by the middle of next
Ghis) week"
Congressman Clark also said
that a special ship, carrying a
full cargo of sugar from Cuba,
will probably put into port here
next week, just a little later than
was anticipated last week.
Sugar Bins Empty
The congressman's repetition OF
last weeks promises arrived here
as Wilmington sugar bins ap-
preached the empty mark.
A long line of anxious customers
waited doggedly in a local grocery
store yesterday as clerks doled out
the dwindling supply in one-pound
paper bags.
A canvass of local stores reveal
ed that wholesalers are complete
out of the product, with retailers
supplies rapidly nearing the van
ishing point.
Consignee Unknown
In restoring local hope last night
for quick alienation cd the severe
shortage, Congressman Clark said
he was unable to discover what
New York importer is handling the
sugar ship or to what local con-
Germ it will be consigned.

Measure

WASHINGTON, June Is.
-(AP)-The house stamped
final approval, 265 to 106, late
Tuesday on the compromise
OPA bill after beating down
a last ditch effort to lift all
price ceilings on meat and
dairy products.
The bill, extending the wartime
price control agency for another
year but pruning down many of its
powers, next went to the senate
for a last vote there before being
sent to President Truman.

Although Chester Bowles has
denounced features of the legisla-
ton as "booby traps" Speaker
Rayburn CD.-Tex.) predicted
President Truman will sign it.
The voting came after Rayburn

About a week or SO ago We

Shortly thereafter an anonymous

This model, she declared, re-
