Rep. Martin
 "Repudiates'' Taft Anti-InflatiOn Bill

WASHINGTON, (P) - Senator O'Mahoney D.-WyoD contended yesterday two Republican law makers have 'repudiated' the claim of Senator Taft R.-Ohio) that the COP cost of living bill is adequate to curb imitation.
 Taft has said that if President Truman signs the legislation now before him the chief executive will have power to check nearly all the principal causes of imitation, if he really wishes to do so." The Ohio Senator urged a slash in govern ment spending as a supplementary step.
 O'Mahoney, who fought the Taft-sponsored measure as too weak, told a reporter Taft's stand has been "repudiated and contra dicted" by House Speaker Martin and Senator Wilson R.-Iowa.)
 Senator O'Mahoney noted that Martin has referred frequently to the bill as the start of a Republi- can drive to cut prices and has said "There are other steps to be taken"

No iniur- ies were reported but damage e2- inmates were placed at $3O, ,O00, in- cluding the Joss of SlO,000 in sup plies. .....
 Cause of the blaze, which start ed in the commissary, was un- known.
 The corporations craft, The Sa- trina, was being loaded here to- day with supplies for the camp.

Government Bonds Drop In Value

NEW YORK, (R)-Prices of U. s. government bonds dropped abruptly today as the federal re- serve system apparently lowered the levels at which it has recently supported the market.
 The victory loan of 21as of De- cember l967-1972, pivotal issue, cracked a4 of point to 100A on the over-the-counter market. A decline of that amount is compar- atively large for federal issue.
 The federal reserve bank of New York declined to reveal at what levels support would be forthcoming. A spokesman indi- cated that market action would show the banks policy.

Whisky Holiday Ends Tonight

WASHINGTON, (P) - The 6O- day whisky-making holiday ends at midnight tonight, leaving dis tilleries free to use as much scarce grain as they wish until the gov- ernment finds way to intervene
 The situation is not expected to prevail very long, however, since intimates of President Tru- man say he is prepared to sign the R pu b l ican anti-inflation bill which restores his wartime power to ration grain for making liquor.
 Presidential press secretary Charles G. Ross told a news con- ference today and the bill may "be signed any day after Christmas. |" He added that "there will be a statement with it!" If so, the distillers may be lim- ited to 2,500,O00 bushels of grain a month--a figure which secretary of agriculture Anderson has been trying to persuade them to accept voluntarily.
 The 65 per cent of the industry represented by the Distilled Spir- its Institute, while unwilling to go all the way with Anderson, is pledged to use only 45 per cent as much grain as it consumed a year ago.
 The institute has asked the rest of the industry to follow suit. If the formula were adopted, about 3,5O0,000 bushels month would be used.
 The expiring 6O-day holiday was agreed upon by the industry in respjonse to an appeal by the citizens food committee during It's campaign 10 save grain for Flu rope.
