Anderson Eyes Food Surpluses
 Seeking Program
 To Support Prices
 Without Wostoae

Washington. Aug. 23-(UPl-Sec- retary of Agriculture Clinton P. An derson, with an eye to possible food surpluses after the present emergen- cy, is seeking some plan to support farm prices without encouraging over-production,
 AS a result, department officials are considering a program for pota- to growers next year which, if it works, may set a pattern for other agricultural commodities
 Under the program. individual pO- tato producers who participate would be told exactly how many bushels of potatoes they may produce. Their quotas would be in line with their historic acreage based on average yields.
 If market prices fell below 50 per cent of parity-the yardstick which measures the farmers income against his cost of living-the Gov ernment would step in and buy enough potatoes to boost prices back up again.
 Otherwise, the producer would sell in an absolutely free market. Then at the end of the season he would turn over his sales slips to the Government.
 If he had received less than 90 percent of parity for his crop, the Government would make uo the diff ference as long as he had not eX- ceeded his acreage quota. If he had exceeded it, he would get no payments.
 There would be nothing to com pei a farmer to participate in the program. officials said, but if he didn't he would have to chance market prices with no compensation if they fell below 90 percent Of par ity

OPA Lifts Flour, ruck Ceilings
 Prepares Boost
 On Materials
 For Construction

Washington, Aug. 23-UPl-The OPA, racing against a Congress sional deadline for adjustment of consumer goods prices. raised ceil- ings on trucks and flour today and prepared price boosts for building materials.
 Early next week, the price agency is expected to give housewives the sad news that new ceilings on lamb and beef will be several cents high CT than the OPA prices that were in effect on June 30
 Although flour prices will go up seven cents a hundred pounds to- day, OPA does not anticipate the rise will be passed on to consumers in the form of higher bread prices.
 In fact, price officials hope a re cent penny-a loaf increase on bread prices can be rescinded as soon as Agriculture Department revokes a limitation order covering millers.
 OPA stepped up it's price action on durable goods with only one day remaining for it to meet a Con- gressional deadline to wipe out costs formerly absorbed by distribu- tors under the old OPA law. The Wherry Amendment to the new price control law directed that costs be passed on to consumers.
 Building materials-also sched- uled for price action today-are the only major consumers durable goods items remaining on which adjust ments must be made under the amendment. Revisions already have been made on mechanical refriger- ators, vacuum cleaners, irons and other durable goods
 New higher truck prices, an- nounced today, will cover higher wage and materials costs, OPA said They include Chevrolet, Dodge, Ford, GMC and White Trucks. The highest boost was $633 for a 2la ton GMC truck.
 New price ceilings also become effective today on tank car sales Of vegetable oils and fats-the major ingredient in shortening and salad oils Retail costs, as a result of the action, will be announced later They will become effective on Sept. g.
 Prices housewives will pay for lamb probably will be six or seven cents a pound above June 30 retail levels. The beef rise is expected to be at least a penny pound.
 Indications that mutton and beef prices will go up came when OPA officials pointed out that subsidies on the two market basket items will not be renewed
 OPA Chief Paul Porter has an- nounced that new meat ceilings will become effective Sept. g.
 Meanwhile, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that meat prices showed little change in the week ending Aug. 20. Round steak and chuck roasts went down in seven cities, with the largest declines in savannah and Washington.
 The bureau said that prices of Is foods in 12 cities were somewhat higher at the end of the week.

Saturday, April 13, is a day to be
remembered by 210 boys and girls
from Noble county and surrounding
counties who earned a free sight
seeing and educational tour to Co
lumbus.
The trip was made in six buses
from Bellaire, with very careful and
courteous drivers at the wheel, snon-
sored by the Wainer Educational
Tours association.
Leaving Elk local at 400 a. m.,
the bus stopping at MiddlebUrg and
Caldwell, there taking on more boys
and girls. The first thriller came
while going from Caldwell to Nc
Connelsville over state route 78. Co
ing over this route in a commercial
bus is very much like riding the
roller coaster at Buckeye Lake.
The river drive from McConnels-
vile to GAINESVILLE was beautiful.
Upon arrival at Columbus, the
students were taken to the Ohio
State Museum where they were ac-
companied through the various
places by guides. The hall of his
tory was very interesting. The story
of Ohio is told by actual characters.
After spending one and one-half
hours in the museum all returned to
their bus.
After leaving the museum they
were taken to the Columbus Dis
patch plant to see the making of a
newspaper, but the plant was broken
down and no paners were being
printed at that time.
From the Columbus Dispatch plant
they were taken to the capitol build
ing. There the guide, Mr.. Arnold,
exclaimed the flag displays and pic
lures of Perry's victory on Lake
Erie, treaty with the Indians and
others.
The state house is considered zone
of the nurest examples of the Doris
in the United States. The marble
floor of the rotunda contains 1892
blocks of colored marble.
From the capitol building they
were taken to restaurants where
they were served a chicken dinner
and ice cream.
After lunch the children toured
the city ard passed the penitentiary
to the Columbus municipal zoo.
There the boys and girls had a cir
Gus, viewing the animals from
guinea pig to an elephant. Ending
rp by buying peanuts and feeding
the monkeys; this they all enjoyed.
The bus returned to Elk local at
1880 p. m. The young people declared
that they had learned lot about
their state and wild animals on this
trip.
The following students from Elk
local enjoyed this trip: Ronald Love,
Harold Forshey, Lloyd Nieb, Hazel
Schafer. Wandalee Parks, Shirley
Unger, Marilyn Jean Eichhorn, Mar
tha Mantel, Eleanor Bonar, Geneva
Walters, Faye Parks, Nina Erb,
Kenneth Neib, Ronald Forshey, Mark
Williams, and teacher, Erval Stevens.
