Miner Week BeCut
 Five-doy Length
 Favored by US.

Washington, June 4-(UP)-IHt Government was reported willing today to try five-day work week in the soft coal industry although many management spokesmen be' lieyed six-day operation was neces' sary to meet production demands. The length of the work week wal said to be the key factor m the price increase to be allowed to cover higher costs resulting from the Government wage contract with tho United Mine Workers (A,F.LD. Government and industry repre- septatives prepared for . series ol price conferences amid these othei developments:

Nations Housewives Get Sorry Answers at Meat, Bread Counters
Most ofU.S Mills Closed
Government Moves To AIIeviose Crisis

Housewives stood in line for meat and bread today, but many got neither.
 Shortages of meat and wheat across the nation were growing more acute, a survey showed. The Government moved to increase bread sup plies in critical areas through a "lend-lease" arrangement with millers.
 But at Chicago representatives e the millers believed the plan would he of little help. They said % per cent of the nations four mills aas ready had closed.
 May Cut Sugar Supplies
 Under the program, the Govern ment would lend wheat to mlllera whose June grind Is leas than aT Ia percent of the flour uiiiied in June last year,
 Tn another move to lessen the bread shortage, the office of STlee Administration was considering . sharp cut in sugar allotmegats 70 the baking industry. This would prevent bakers from turning out higher priced pastries Instead os bread,
 At Chicago, millers attending a meeting Of the Association of oper- ative Millers predicted that the shortage would continue despite tho bumper wheat harvest, Farmers would hesitate to market more than half the new crop, the millers said, because Of uncertainty over dov- ernment programs and price cells ings,
 The American Meat Institute ye. ported . further sharp drop" n meat production by legitimate packers last week and predicted that there will soon be practically no honest beef for customers ~ honest prices"
 90 Farmers strike
 Ten major meat packers laA week operated at T2 precent below normal production, the Institute said,
 At Rugby, ", D., more than 900 farmers declared 8 marketing strike in . demand for industrial peace, They signed pledges to withhold All their foodstuff fFom the market until strife between las boF and industry has been settled.
 Oscar RlessuIn, chairman of the group, said the striking farmers hoped t0 see such groups formed iEa each North Dakota county shortly, and throughout the wheat belt eventually, The farmers admitted they were taking drastic step, | 4 survey showed these eendi. tons

our local boys continued to sur

u. s. OFFERS AID TO
TRANSPORT JEWS
Published Reports Say I'm
tied States Offered
To Finance Project

LONDON, July 14.-Wg-Pub-
lished reports said today that the
Jewish Agency had estimated it
would cost $36, 600, 600 to $48, O00,-
600 to transport 100, 900 Jews from
Europe to Palestine. The United
States has offered to finance the
project.
The Sunday Times said the Jew
ish agency-recognized by Brit
ain as the official organization for
immigration to Palestine - had
submitted that estimate in a mem
orandum to American and British
experts comforting here on impie-
mentation of the recommendations
of the Anglo-American committee
OF inquiry on Palestine.
That committee had urged the
immediate admittance of 1OO.-
600 homeless Jews into the Holy
Land.
DR.. Chain Weizmann, Presi-
dent of the Jewish agency, was ex-
pected in London next week. He
may be consulted by the con-
ferees.
Those members of the Agency's
executive council, who are not
under British arrest in Palestine,
will meet in Paris next week. In
formed sources predicted that
| they would accuse the United
States and Britain of '+stalling'' on
the plan to help European Jews.
Berl Locker, member of the
Jewish agency executive, denied
published reports that the agency
would meet here next week rather
than Paris.
Asked why the agency had selec-
ted Paris instead of London, Lock
er replied sardonically, Draw
your own conclusions"
It was pointed out that the
agency first approached President
Truman on the Jewish problem
more than a year ago, and that,
while he approved the idea of the
Anglo-American committee, it was
not set up until last November.
The agency estimated that trans
portation would cost at least $10,-
600, 600. 1t would take the rest Of
the $36, 900, 900 to $48, 900, 900 esti-
mated cost for medical care,
housing, clothing, food and Incl
dentals.
