Talmadge, who last night bought

cash spot price and September
oats were quoted at less than So

days 81 cents.
During the present week, declines
were recorded in the cotton, grain,

prices were the lowest since. OPA
ceiling were removed Oct. 10. In
New York, wholesale butter drop
ped another six cents a pound on
top of last weeks decrease of near
ly 10 cents. Retail butter prices
generally followed suit. Top grade
butter could be purchased here for
IS cents a pound today. This was
approximately the old OPA ceiling
and represented a drop of rs cents
since Dec. rs.
None of these drops, or others,
could be taken as any indication
that the high general price struc-
ture was suddenly crumbling and
might fall down. Prices on some
items obviously e due to rise
even higher, including probably
ladies apparel. Steel and other
metal prices were up and hard
goods made from them frequently
reflected these increases. Many
producers and retailers found it
necessary to increase prices be-
cause of the IT'S per cent boost in
freight rates.

Apparently Stains note was the
first regarding extension OF the
treaty since Bevin reported last
year that he had received no reply
from Russia to his offer to make
the pact effective for SO instead Of
20 years.
Bevin's December pronounce
ment, considered by the Russians
with article three and four Of the
treaty in mind, apparently led
them to conclude that Prsvda':
conclusions were well drawn.

also to the same clauses as con

Hyattsvi||e May Cut
Spending by $4,000

Recommendations aimed at cut
ting expenditures by $4,000 for the
remainder Of the present fiscal year
will be submitted February 10 to the
Hyattsville Mayor and City Council
This was decided last night at a
special meeting of the city's Finance
Committee in the council room.
The cuts are necessary to prevent
exceeding the unexpended budget
amount of about $4,000, all that is
left for the fiscal year ending June
30, according to Councilman Caesar
L. Aiello, chairman of the COM
mittee.
A reduction of road improvement
work in the city at least through the
winter months will bear the brunt
of the cut, Mr.. Aiello declared. The
roads department, which now num-
bers II men, will be reduced to 9
and the purchase of new dump
truck. scheduled this year, will be
postponed until the next budget i!
drawn up, he said.
Other departments in the city
government also will be ordered tt
economic, he added. These include
police, garbage and trash collection
health and public parks.
